time over the subject of prohibition.
Two petitions have been circulated,
the one for, and the other against
prohibition, aud both' are said to
have a large number of signatures.
The petitioue are to go to the Leg
islature aud are touching the ques
tion of holding an election ou pro
hibition in Gaston county. Judging
from the number on the petition
the county is pretty evenly divided
on the subject.
Two little children of a section
hand ou the C. C. Railroad,between
Shelby and Rutherfordton, were
playing on the track last Friday
morning, in a deep cut near a enrve
when the nassenerer train came
upon them. One of the xjbildreu
stepped off but the other started to
run on the road and the train came
up on it before the engineer could
sop. Tbe child was struck by the
pilot aud severely injured, but later
intelligence is to the effect that the
child- will live.

Register of Deeds, and Capt, G. E.
Childs, our esteemed Clerk of 3:
Court, are all smiles this week.
They have had furnished to their
offices some handsome furniture in
the shape of tables and desks. We
have no time to describe them, but
they are. certainly convenient and
handsome pieces of furnitnre, and
the above named officers have rea
sons to be'glad J and nobody has
any right to blame them If their
gladness does creep out and show
itaelt in their countenances. y
Cherryville is to have a cotton
mill. Already half the stock neces.
sary has been secured. Mauney
Bros., of King'a Mountain, are be
hind the movement, and that means
success. Mr. S S. Maaney, Cherryi
viil has the subscription list, aud
will be glad to take any eubscrip-.
tions from those who desire to en
tourage the enterprise. It will be a
good investment for the stock hold
ers aud give employment to thotje
seeking labor. By all means, let
the good works go on in Gaston
until we spiu and weave all our cot
ton at- home Dallas Eagle.
The editor of the CoUBIER has

call to see us as you knot? it re
quires money to build. We feel
that the LINCOLN COURIER is a
permanent, institution and we are
grateful to our many friends for
the encouraging patronage we have
so far received at their hands.
The wedding at Washington
of Mhs Florence Cooper, a niece
of Mrs. Vance, aud Charles
Manley Basbee, of North Cars
olina, was one of the prettiest
home weddings of the season. The
bride was attended by Miss Sallie
Badsrer Hoke as maidofhonor,
who wore a gown of white fiiUle
The bridesmaids were Miss Norris,
Miss Justice, Miss Maud Weller,
Miss Mary Bullock, Miss Nancy
Bowles and Miss Helen Fowle.

Considerable fxri'ement was ere
ateel in town Wednesday f this
week, by a difficulty which orcurtd
between Capr. B. F. Gn'g
Capt. E. W. Ward, of this place, in
which the science of pugilism was
put iulo lively practice for some
little time. The peisou refeired
to have uot been friendly for some
time, and it seems that the lwo
gentlemen met in the middle of the
sidewalk goiug iu opposite dueci
tions and neither bewg willing to
give way to the other they, as a
natural consequence, collided and
this produced both superficial and
internal frictiou causing an overflow
of pent up anger , which resulted in
a fight. Capt. Ward's eon came
up and took his father's part, but
all were separated before any seri
ous damage was doae, savo that of
bruises. The friends of both par-
ties very much regret the unfortun
ate occurence.
How Mauy llalea Ginned.
Last week we made request to
know how many bales of cotton
have been bonght in ihe county.
We also ask the ginners to give the
number of bales that have been
ginned m the county this season.
We hope our friends will furnish
us with this information ou a postal
card. or otherwise.

Jliller J- Broom Manufacturer.
J. C. Worlick tells us he has be
came a public servant, he has lately
moved to and taken charge ot his
father's mill. By the way it is one
among the oldest mills iu the coun
ty. The miller says he noticed on
the husk frame a few days ago, the
initials of two men, D. W. and P. W
with the year 1810 carved. The
mill has always bad a good reputa
tion when it had a good miller. We
would apeak for the miller, from
the public, hia share of patroooge
when you go to mill; And he has
moved his broom factory with him,
so when uot employed In grinding
he is busilv engaged making
brooms. We have tried his brooms
and know they are gcod aud sub
stantial. Thanks to him for one
as a present it was not a holiday
present but we will use it just tbe
same, he wants his friends to raise
all the broom corn they can, he will
make it up at lOcts. a broom (if the
tariff don't get too high), or he will
pay octs a pound for good bright
cured brush with about three inch
es of stalk with brush.

Vox Popull,
Reepsville, N. C, Jan. 23, '91,
Iu the most august assemblage
of thejjeople, goaded, impelled, con
strained by the ubiquitous edicts of
truth, justice and equity, we, the
citizens of Howard's Creek Town
ship, hereby hasten to express our
bitterest denunciatiou, abhorrence,
detestation and condemnation of
the audacious, reprehensible crime
perpetrated against one of our fels
low citizens. Inasmuch as a certain
fellow of the aforesaid township, by
the name and title of W. Lee Canipe
did wittingly, willingly, willfully,
presumptuously, premeditatively
transgress against the pleasure, the
peace, and the feet of our friend and
fellow citizen, M. O. Carpenter, by
compelling him, m broad daylight,
on the 22ud inst., in the presence
of a giddy horde of spectators, at
Esq. Philip Carpenter's, to dance in
a most galling, moat appalling hog
trough.
Therefore, we, tbe Sovereign Peo-
pt, do condiMiui t ho S.iid Y. L,re
Canipe lo b incarcerated in the
connubial Elysium, tasked by Hy
men, and bound by Gordon tm ub
shall have propitiated hit villUhy.
