Little John Alexander Crushed Uuder a Freight Train-He Was Tryroe to Ride. ; t , A sad, sad lesson was tought in Charlotte Thursday when little John Alexander was crushed underneath the ponder ous wheels of a freight train. It was at the crossing at North Brevard street where the trains slow up and where boys are in a habit of swinging on for a ride. This unfortunate child missed his objective point and was thrown under the car where the wheels pushed and crushed him in fearful manner. He remained conscious however and was carried to his home to his heart crushed mother. Ue lived four hours and talked freely and without pain. Listen for a New Enterprise. , Certainly the town of Concord is building up fast , and this growth' is steady and not of ; the 'booming" kind. Hardly a week passes with out some new enter prise materializing, and others being formed. All of our influ ential citizens seem, .q have the best interests of ' Concord at heart, and yrith this kind of spirit abroad keep your eye on your home town and. watch for new companies to be formed that will increase . the population and wealth of the community. Une of Conc6rd's prominent men said to a Standard reporter last night that there were rumors abroad that before many months Concord would ; have an enter prise that any town or city in the South would be proud to boast of. He would give no information other than this. But from all appearances there is a project on foot for something new for Concord. Prctt j Specimen of Petrified Wood.

His Democratic Ilecoid Clean. Col. John II Long came into our office today, (Friday) and in answer to certain questions as to his loyalty, to. Democracy says, he cast one Republican vote two ! years after the war and for one man only, in Union, county. He was elected county . commission of Uaion,county on:the Demo critic ticket.; That he failed to vote on two occasions in Cabar rus county in which complica tions, not disloyalty to the party, caused it and that he has cast a Democratic ballot every time he has had the chance to do so in Cabarrus. - " 1 ' That General Uatherlng. There is a question recently agitated by some of our citisens that is of much importance to Concord. It is to establish an annual central social Business Day for Concord, where the peo ple will congregate from every part of the county and beyond the county lines; where the farmer and tradesman can buy, sell, barter and exchange lands and live stock of all kinds, rent farms, ngage tenants and hire help for the coming season, with speeches and other entertain ment. On investigation it is found that ur peopte are ripj; and anxious for a day or two of this kind and call loudly for it. "Many Citizens." Concord, July 23, 1902.
