The spring session of the Durham Male Academy, Prof. L. T. Buch anan, principal, will open January 14th. Attention is directed to the advertisement which appears in this issue of The Plant. This Academy has recently closed a very prosper ous session. To Advertisers. We propose to make .The Daily Plant a household necessity during 1889.' In fact, "the children shall be made to cry for it." If our mer chants and others want to get their announcements into the hands of the citizens of the town, The Plant will be glad to serve them always. 3Iain Street Church. The first Quarterly Conference for Main Street Church will embrace next Sabbath, (to-morrow). Rev. Ju nius T. Harris, tTie Presiding Elder, will occupy the pulpit at 11 a. m., and 7 p. m. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper will be administered in connection with the morning ser vice. The (Quarterly Conference will meet on Monday niht. Narrow Escape. Mr. J. S. Long, of the firm of Smith A: Long, was fording, with horse and buggy, across a stream near Bowling's Mill, in the Flat River section, a few days ago, when he, horse, buggy and all were swept down the stream. The horse was drowned and Mr. Long escaped a similar fate by catching hold of a limb that overhung the stream. He lost his satchel and 825 in money. Sidewalk Mud Holes. If this writer should ever turn up missing don't give up the search until you have fished around in the mud holes on the sidewalk between the Presbyterian Church and Queen street. Now ain't that a daisy side walk for the main street of a town like' Durham ? And yet we have a law that' says the sidewalks a be paved. The town authorities say hall, the owners say hant, and shan't prevails, while pedestrians dodge and "jump and slosh and get by the best they can. The town will wake up, may be, when some body falls in and is drowned and a suit for damages ensues. Ain't It So? The Plant affirms that "Durham busted" is ahead of the average town on a boom. Ain't it so ? We are led to remark this from the fact that since our business embarrassment, which caused a . great many goods to be thrown on the market at and below cost, some of our merchants began looking abroad for some point where they might remove until our cheap stocks were exhausted. With one consent, we understand that those who have been prospecting say Durham with her broken bank and demoralized markets is bad enough to be sure, but we are in fine condition to some, and indeed most of the places they have visited. A Suggestion. Can't something be done to prove the condition of our Street Car s im-;er, schedule? To see the car runup and down town, carrying the driver alone has grown monotonous and we have watched this state of things until we have grown sorry for the driver. The major part ot the trouble j comes from the fact that the public- has; come to believe that the cars are being run without system or sched ule and as a result have quit "foolin' with, em," Nine times out of ten you can, by walking get to where you Want to go, before you can catch a car, and one chance in a hundred if you ride any distance yon are treated to a long "wait," somewhere along the line. This state of affairs has lasted long enough. Improve your service, gentlemen. 1 141,11 I'lioto-raplis. M- Ui- ""V' . . . tlii", iftemoo una autrnoon.

Winston, of the niversity, upon "Inten .-ting Sights in Europe." proved highly entertain ing and-instructive. The audience was pretty fair in size, hut we an sorry that more of our peopb- were not present to enjoy the rare, literary and historic treat. Prof. Winston was introduced bv Mr. A. J. Stowe, General Secretary of the Y. M.C. A., and at the close of the lecture Mr. J. H. Southgate, Presi dent of the Association, arose and expressed the appreciation of the au dience and returned thanks to the Professor for the rich entertainment lie had provided. We hope Prof. Winton will favor us with another lecture at an earlv day. A Valuable Fertilizer. The legislative correspondent of the Abbeville (S. C.) .lWmm.gavs: "Speaking of cotton seed meaf re minds me that the Durham Fertil izer Company manufactures a very valuable fertilizer that our people would do well to try. It is com posed of Peruvian guano and the waste from tobacco. It is excellent for cotlon and other field crops and nothing better can be found lor the garden. It is an excellent insecti cide eflectually preventing the rav ages of bugs and worms. Senator McCall, of Marlboro, tells me that he has used it with satisfaction. Uhers in his section have also used it with success. Senator McCall is one of the largest planters in the State and his endorsement of this fertilizer leads me to commend it to the people of Abbeville. The price is low. I have a sample at home and will try it on upland corn and my garden next year. It is manu factured at Durham. N. LV Just $..00, Please. After January 1st, it will cost you just to read the only red-headed daily and one of the best dailies in the State. We cannot afford to give Durham a first-class daily for less than $-". )0 and we would quit the business be fore we would serve our people with anything but a first class daily. Thk Plant proposes to be a nkw s papku and not a blanket sheet oi cheap advertisements. In every other line of business if you geta gool article, you pay a good price. Why not so with your newsnaner ? No , j one can with justice lodge any com plaint against tfie character ot Tiik i la xt e strive to be indepen dent and at the same time fair. We strive to have our own views and at the same time be honest and bold enough to express them without fear or favor. We strive to be honest in our criticisms without giving inten tional offence. We strive to give all the latest news and at the same time be correct. We strive above all things to be loyal to the best interest of Durham. To this end we promise during lss) renewed effort Now do you want Thk Daily Plant? If so, $3.00 will get you the favor for the twelve months of 1KS0. Fifty bushels of Mountain Irish Potato, rery fine-t, at V. J. Wratt A- Co. $4.00 PER ANNUM. 1 ' onsideratc Company. Black well's Durham Co-Operative Tobacco Co. presented every one of its employes, white and black, big and little, with some useful5 article as a Christmas gift. Such acti of kindness are creditable to employers and are. highly appreciated by "the employed. Nothing lightens labor so much as the consciousness that it is valued by those for whom it i done and manifestations of appre- ciation often bring light and glad-' ness where gloom and despondency reign. Give us more corporations with souls like those that guide Blackwell's Durham Co-Operative Tobacco Company, and we will hear less of unfriendly" relations between employers and employes and less of the perplexities o'f the lalor problem. Aiiiioiiiieeiueiit. On Tuesday next, January l.-t, Tiik Daily Plant will absorb its contemporary, 77- Daily lUwrthv. Thk Plant was born to serve Dur ham, and in the interest of Durham the above arrangement has been ef fected, believing that it the patron age of our people is conrentrated upon one paper that better results will be obtained. Tiik Plant has alwaya aimed high ami striven to deserve the name of first-class and we had rather "shut up shop" than lower this standard. We propose now to do -vena little Utter, if we can, than we have done in the past Along the line of improvement for the new vear we promise a reform in the matter of delivery by carriers. We know that many of our town patrons have sulk-red inconvenience on ac count of irregular delivery and we shall use our best efforts to secure the desired relief. As stated in another article, in this issue, the subscription price of, Thk Daily Plant ( which has been too low will be increased to S5.m per year. Alir.-t-class daily cannot be a iron led at a less price, and thi price is lower, we believe, than any fir.-t-class daily in the State. Pro portionate rates will be charged for six months and lor three months. Monthly subscribers will be fccrved at .V) cents a month and weekly subscribers at 15 cents a week. The subscription to Tiik Wkkkia Plant will remain as it is now S1.-V) jkt year. Mr. E. C. Hackney, of the . cvmAr, will devote his" entire time to the publication of 7V HVrZy -tunl'T and 7V.
