EDITED BY A DIRTY FELLOW AT NORFOLK Southern Progress is the title of a dirty sheet, the first issue of which appeared February, 1892. Its editor and publisher is Frank A. Haywood, and the birth place the thriving city of Norfolk. We regret that Norfolk (so thoroughly Carolinian) shonld beget an off-spring so vile, so abusive, eo contemptable. Our readers will please pardon us for deyiating from the beaten paths of journalism in thus refering to the above journal; but under the circum stances we feel it our duty to expose ibis viper who has saught to belittle our city and damage our citizens. Who Frank A. Haywood, its edi tor and publisher is, we are unable to learn, but judging from his fond ness for seclusion and solitude we infer that he has served sentence in some State's prison, where he most l'kelv cultivated the unnatural desire to be alone. Be it aa it may, but nnloss he sneedilv returns to the paths of rectitude and honor, from which (hy his appearances and utter ances) he has long since departed, his peculiar fancy for solitude will be more fullv realized than his diseased - - - br-nn has ever conceived. Elsewhere in this issue we submit a duplicate copy of an agreement made between him and our city coun cil relative to an adverti3ement that was to appear in a book published by the Norfolk & Southern R. R. Com pany. His wilful and direct violation of this contract a3 appears in another column of this paper, was the sole Cause of his discontent, which result ed in the abuso and the unadulter ated falsehoods that have appeared in his publication, much to the det .riment (?) of our town and citizens. EX-GOVERNOR SCALES DEAD. Ex-Governor Alfred Moore Scales is dead; he died at his home in Greens boro, this State, on the night of Feb, 9. He was born Nov. 26th, 1827, in Rockingham county. He served in Congress one term before the war and for five consecutive terms after the war. He entered the Confederate army as a private; was in many of the most im portant battles of that conflict; was twice wounded, and before the close f the war was created brigadier gen eral. In 1884 he was elected Gover nor of North Carolina by a majority of 20,000. After his term expired he retired to private life, and has since been interested in financial enterprises being at the time of his death prtsi dent of the Bank of Greensboro. He had been very ill for many months, , and his death was not unexpected. J EDENTON, N. SOCIAI & PERSONAL. PFHPT.P TAT.KEIj akuui WHOM YOU KNOW. -rur iwrcvc "FcORD Or tunitcni i ri w h. h.
