J. Mat Joyce, a deputy sheriff is
a man who practices; the strictest
economy. Sunday when he arrived
at Went worth to alttend court, he
jecidfni to spend the night in tne
grand-jury room and save the cost
of lodging in one of the hotels at
the county-seat. Arising early next
morning he ran his head through a
bier glass in the door, and wilL now
have to replace it, thus being out
$15.00 instead of the cost of a
night's loding.
Union Republican
A solid train of beef cattle pass
ed through the city the past week
on its way to Northern markets.
There were twelve .cars, all full,
making 350 head. They ere from
Ashe and Watauga counties.
Messrs. J. L. and W. L. Anthony
and Ernest Angelo, have purchased
a lot just north of the postoffice and
will erect a thiee-story brick build
ing thereon; at a cost of some $6,
000 the first floor of which will ,be
used by the Winston Tailoring Co.,
and the other stories Tor offices and
dormitories.
During October the local drug
stores filled 700 prescriptions for
liquor. The Express Co., delivered
fully that many parcels, which leads
us to infer that we have prohibition
more in name than reality. The
Republican believes that' the drug
store prescriptions were for medici
nal purposes. The Express ship
ments, which roll in every day, are
with exceptions, used as beverages
Then we have near beer saloons
where the thirsty also slake their
thirst with malt drinks. There maj
be less liquor drank than there was
before the State prohibition law
went into effect but such facts and
gures make one really wonder if
such is really the case.

sum of $5,600. Later J. C. Hol

property and it will be sold again

Because D. M. Raper has been
in poor health and has had trouble,
a large number of his neighbors
gathered at his home last week,
near Enterprise, and proceeded to
do his farm work. They sowed
wheat gathered and shucked his
corn, hauled wood, etc., and put his
farm in good condition. Such
things as this are finer than words
can paint them, carrying out to the
letter as they do the great injunc
tion. Raleigh Cacanslan.

In a boiler explosion at Lee
Staley's saw mill near Brier Creek,
Tuesday, Clyde Sale, a yo'ung man,
about eighteen years old, 'was so
frightfully scalded from head to foot
"with escaping steam and hot, water,
that his recovery is not expected.
Thomas Ladd, another young man,
painfully, though less seriously in
jured. The boiler had not been
ised in several months and it is
bought that the steam gauge had
tacome rusty and did not register
accurately the head of steam, and
at the accumlation was for greater
than the valve indicated.

Henry Turner happened to a very
serious accident Friday, and he was
fortunate to come off as well as he
did. He was in the woods with a
force of hands, and in endeavoring
to throw a tree that had lodged with
another tree the latter tree slided,
striking Mr. Turner and pinioning
his legs against a log. Both of his
limbs were severely bruised and Dr
Malloy found a slight fracture of the
right member. His many friends
will be glad to know Henry is gett
ing on nicely, displaying his usual
gift.
Voting land Baying Votes.
Ohio State Journal.
At the election last week Mary
land voted on an amendment to
disfranchise, the negro. It failed,
as it ought to have done. Taking
away from a race the right to vote,
which was once given them, is a
difficult, if not an impossible task.
We hear sometimes of people ex
pressing themselves in favor of dis
franchising the negro, and they
point to the alleged practice of buy
ing vup the negro vote as their reas
on. We do not think chis practice
is so universal as to jus tifiy such a
course. There are, doubtless, neg
roes who sell their votes, and white
people, too, no doubt, but they are
a low class, and are very few com
pared with the body of decent and
intelligent voters.
But he is something we cannot
uuderstand why a negro who sells
his vote should be disfranchised
and the. man who buys it sh)uld be
permitted to vvote. If the matter
was analyzed, he man who buys a
vote is a worse citizen than . a man
who sells his vote. Where a low
down negro or white man sells his
vote there is always some alleged
respectable and intelligent man who
does the buyiug or furnishes the
money.

Needed the Knife.
Philadelphia Telegraph.
Speaking of table etiquette some
time since, General E. Burd Grubb
told a story about a man who was
justified in eating pie with a knife.
Smith was standing in a hotel lob
by one day, according to the Gen
eral, talking to Jones, when the
conversation turned to a dinner that
had been given at the home of a
mutual acquaintance named Brown.
4You should have seen Barton,"
remarked Joues, referring to one of
the guests. "I thought he had bet
ter table manners. When his pie
was served he actually ate it with a
knile."
"I don't blame him for that,"
was the startling repiv of Smith.
rV iist j ui ' u: .
"iOU uuu l uieuue iiiuit icpcai-
ed Jones in amazement
"No," smilingly rejoined Smith.
"I have eaten pie at Brown's my
self, and it" is a wonder to me that
didn't take an ax."
