In addition to the lights to be placed in Piedmont Wagon Works, the company has application from our business hous es for forty three incandescents, ad ditional to those already in use. This shows that tlie electric system yields satisfaction to our people, and that it is preferable to gasoline. There is, however, one unfilled desideratum in the matter—we need more public lights 1 The numbei of lights on the public square are apposite to their area, but East Hickory and West Hickory are both sadly neglected. An arc light in ! each of the above portions of the city are absolutely requisite. The tax-payer« in those sections are en titled to some benefit from the light fund, and that, too, when it is necessary to the convenience of all ; ; who have occasion to travel at night l m those sections. It is to be hoped that the city fathers will give the matter a favor ' able consideration, and "let there be light.'" o i \ Win W !. -it "Vi i;S - Piedmont Wagon Co. are so far behind with their orders that thev j have decided to run at night, and are row having fourteen electric I lights put in to enable them to work I at night. ' f In January next Louis Kossuth will become a man without a coun try. He will on the Oth of that month complete the period of ab sence from Hungary which will ter minate and forfeit his citizenship of that country. His two sons have become Italian citizens, and the veil- [ erable patriot has been strongly urged to do likewise, but he proba bly wiii not do so. It is a deplorable fact that we have not a police force that will preserve ; order in a theatre hall before and during the performance. If you told some boys and men that they did not know what gentlemanly con duct was they would be highly in dignant, and yet their actions show that thev do not know. The wife of the late S. S. Cox was his inseparable companion; she shared all his plans, and made nis life her own. Mr. and Airs.

In Virginia it was supposed that the election would be close, but Alahone seems to have been buried under an adverse majority of 40,000 or 50,0(H). In Ohio Judge Campbell has a ma jority of 8,000 or 10,000 and a Dem- i oeratie Legislature will elect the j i successor to Senator Payne. The ; Democrats have elected Mr. Boies j Governor of lowa, a?id will control the Legislature and choose a suc cessor to Senator Allison. The Democratic majority New Jersey ( is about P2.000. and j New \ ork, and the Democrats ha\e made considerable grains in the j Legislature. In Massachusetts the Democrats might easily have won a victory. Six thousand more votes would have elected Air. Russell and last year he got about 000 more votes than he got Tuesday through the ; : indifference of his party. The Administration made every effort to get Virginia away from the Democratic column. Everything that Harrison's patronage and Quay's mailed handful of money could do to capture ATrgiuia was done, and the result is a Democratic majority of 40,000 or 50,000 against 1 1,500 last fall. On the other hand, the Democratic party has recovered j Xew York and broken into the Re publican line at two most important points —Ohio and lowa. The North west belongs to the Democrats and we will get it vet in 1 residential as r> *. well as m off years. 1 i "To discontinue an advertise ment," says John Wauainaker, Phila delphia's great merchant, "is like taking down your sign. If you want to do business you must let the public know it. Standing ad vertisements are better and cheaper than reading notices. They look more substantial and business-like, and inspire conhndence. I would as soon think of doing business without clerks as without advertis ing.'' j Annual l-'air Meeting. The annual meeting of the Hicko ry Fair Association will be held in Hickory, on Monday, Nov.

There were "mirth and music in the chime," and all were highly entertained. The proteges, all acquitted t'.fni-elves with great credit, their "clogs'" being superior to any we have ever seen. In short, it is an excellent "com. and well deserves patronage. % Nlijflit Mishap, Last week a slight accident oc-' curred at Piedmont Wagon shops. A joist in the new building being overloaded with bricks gave way and precipitated about ten thousand bricks against one of the walls of the new shop building. The damage . will probably amount to sixty dol -1 lars. In Imrloltc lam Tuesday. j Just at the close of the races at the fair grounds a difficulty oc curred, which resulted in Capt# George F. Bason being shot in the , head. The shot was tired by Air. W alter Sullivan, of the Charlotte gas works, who had been struck by : Capt. Bason. I , Ihe Lenoir lopic of last week | contained a somewhat lengthy ac count of a drunken spree of J. A] E-tes, just out of jail, and Robert Powell during which Estes was re -1 lieved of 5.310., with which it is said • that Powell is paying his way to the , far West. Whisky will make men , steal.

Full board present. The allowance for support of Katie Huffman was increased from Si.oo ;to si. so pf r month. The supervisors, having contracted j foi the building of a new bridge i across Lvles creek near John Sim | moils' according to an order of the board, sold the old bridge timbers to the highest bidders, some of I which timbers had washed down the creek on the land of Aliss F. O. E-k --ard, and H. J. Reitzel, agent for Aliss Eekard, having refused to allow | the purchaser to move the timbers, it way ordered that Alis& Eekard be requested to allow the timbers to be moved, and informed that the board would otherwise recover them by due course of law. A petition was filed asking an order for a iurv to lav out a change J * in the Sandy ford road at the mile oot. one mile from Newton, and aNo to change the Simson ford road at tne foot of the hill near C.
