H'Jlo WILL GET THE PRIZE?
New that it is looked upon as a set
tled conclusion that the C. F. &. Y. V.
Kailroud will be sold, and feeling equal
ly that natural inducements of
ferjpul.bji shis section will cause some
road to build a branch to this place, the
commissioners appointed to make the sale
should have an eye to the best interests
of the whole State, aud not overlook thp
advantages to be derived from extend
ing an arm of the 0. F. & Y. V. Rail
road to this section of the county. Not
only will a branch from the main line at I
,Walnut Cove to this plueo be of very i
great advantage to the State, but it will
be of inestimable worth to the company
operatiug the road that can control tlio
freights this seation will furnish ; for by J
extending the road to this place, it not,
tuly penetrates ten miles in'o a large!
scope of undeveloped rich agricultural i
country, but reaches the very center of
a section as rich in magnetic iron ore,!
with as fine timber and maguificeut wa- j
ter power as probably any section in !
North Carolina, in addition to which,!
Lime, Granite, Fine clay and other val- '
nable minerals abound in the greatest
_
abundance, iu fact, taking this section i
all things considered, its pure air, mild
climate, magnificent scenery and health
giving waters, it is believed to possess j
as many if not more natural advantages i
than any other section in the State. :
The iron ore and water power here with
the abundance of timber suitable fori
making charcoal, and the cousideratiou
that stone-coal can be had only ten i
miles an ay which will bo directly on a
road from Greeusboro to this place is a
sure guarantee that a road will be built
here in a short time, and it depends yery
much on the commissioners appciutcd to
sell the C. F. & Y. Y. road, to say
whether that road will be built by this
place, up the valley of the Dan to Mt.
Airy, or a branch built from Walnut
Cove, ter) miles up hero, and tjie valua- J
. blc freight from this section and the large ;
pcope of undeveloped "back countrv"
find its way into North Carolina, over
State roads to build up Greensboro,'
Wilmington and other North Carolina
towus and enrich her Railroads, or
whether the gap will be left down, and
the Midland" oome in and claim the
prize to build up and enrich Danville,
Richmond and Yirginia roads.
The two Hegroes who murdered Mr.
Thomas N. Lynch were taken from the
jail at Oxford and hanged by masked
men. We thought it more than pri ba
blc that this would bo done, because of
the hcinousness of the crime and the
character of the gentleman dealt with
so brutally. It would have been much
better to let |lie law deal with them
than to resort to violence. Iu the eigh
ty years of the history of Oxford no
murder was ever committed before.
The swift mob-justice meted to the vil
lains will be a warning, it is hoped. Mr.
Lynch was esteemed universally, and
great excitement has prevailed iu couse
qaence of the fiendish deed by which he
was laid in his grave. No doubt the
course of justice in the South—the es
cape of so many villains from punish
ment—has had much to do with the
lynching of these cegroos.— Wilming
ton Star.
It will be »oen that president Arthur
recommends a reduction of taxation
which will noeessarily reduce the reve
nues by $15,000,000 per annum in ac
cordance with the suggestion of Com
missioner Raum, the capital and depos
its of banks are to bo exempted from
present exactions, leaving liquors and
tobacco to bear the brunt of the burden.

An eight dollar overcoat was handed
him by his elerk, and .smoothing it out, 1

the show case, and stuffing it full of pa- !
per, dropped it into one of the pockets.

and inquired :

"Yer got any cheap shoes hyar?"j
asked the negro.
•'Blcaty uf dotn, my front, blenty;

T-tio negro stated t! >.t ho wanted a
pair of brngans, and soon his peda! ex- ,
tremitios were encased in thcui and a
bargain struck. A- he was about to |
leave the proprietor called liiiu back. i ,
"1 ain't gwiue tor buy ntifhn else.—

sullenly. ! ,

11;e negro buttoned up the coat,;'
thiust his hands in, the pockets and felt j '
the purse. A peaceful smile spread j (
over his face when his touch disclosed j i
to his uiind the contents of the pockets, l
but he choked down his joy and unquir- 1

"Nebber mine, I'll keep de coat on,"
replied the negro, and ptdling out a roll
of money, he paid for it and left the '
store.
While he was around the next corner
moaning over his stuffed purse Hoffen
