Madam Rumor has it that wedding bells will will ring out about the midcllo of next month. There will be communion services at the Presbyterian church Sunday, prcpartory services beginning Fri day evening. Why not put tho road leading to the bridge in good condition before bad weather sets in? Give it time to settle down. Mr. Clarence Call has purchased the interest of Mr. I. S. Call in the firm of Call k Co., and will continue the business. Success to him. New pupils are being continually enrolled at Blue ilidgc Institute enrollent now numbers 113. This is .really encouraging, and good news. Mr. W. S. Surratt, of Moi avian Falls, has accepted a position with Messrs. Henry k Terry, where he'll bo pleased to seo and serve his old friends. Tell rour neighbor .that Governor Aycoclc will bo on hand Saturday to discuss the issues ot the daj. Ifj'ou want to hear a clear cut speech, be on hand. J. M. Combs, who lives about six miles below town, drew off his mill pond Saturday and captured about four bushels offish, besides some fine turtle, eels, etc. It is more than probable that the opposite approach to tho lower bridge, which wss washed away several months ago, will be put back in the near future. Messrs. Caffey k Co. moved yester day into their new quarters, the Deans building next door to Dough ton's Drug Store, where they will be pleased to see and serve their friends. An effort is being made and it will be successful, to erect a large and commodious public school building at this place at once. This is badly needed and we are pleased to note tho fact. People who would become citi zens of our town are forced to re main away, and all becauso it is im possible to secure houses. Some who have positions here have to walk nearly two miles. The mother of Dr. John L. Cot trcll, at Dcerfield, had the misfortune of falling from a box on which she standing, and breaking her arm. All are sorry to hear of the kind lady's misfortune. Watauga Democrat, 18th. Wilkes county's handsome new court house has been completed the walls and the carpenters will now rush their part of the work to completion at once. It is thought that it will be thoroughly completed by the first of the year. The Teachers Institute which closed at Traphill Friday, was a de cided success Superintendent Wright tells us that fifty teachers were in attendance and that five counties were represented. Educa tionally, Wilkes is taking a new lease on life. AH persons interested in the cem etery in tho rear of tho Wilkesboro Presbyterian church are requested to meet there Saturday morning at 8 o'clock for the purpose of cleaning off the graves, etc. More attention should bo given to such matters and we hope that those interested will be on hand. An Effort to Build a Large Hotel at the Brushy flountain Iron and Lithia Springs. The Hustler is pleased to note that plans are on foot and being agitated to organize a company and build a $20000 hotel at the- Brushy Mountain Iron and Lithia Springs. The destruction ot Hotel Lithia by tiro last week makes this almost imperative we must have another hotel there. Not only this section demands this, but thousands of vis itors who have been greatly bene fited at this popular summer resort demand it. Hotel Lithta had only been open a few seasons, but it was noon realized that the room was in sufficient for the accomodation of guests, and many were lorced every season to ceek other places on this account all who had once ,:sum mered" there were anxious to re turn, and the place was rapidly growing in public favor. A large hotel can be kept full every season, and we hope that the movement now on foot will materi alize it will bo no trouble to get outside capital if the proper effort is made, and we feel sure this will be done. Men of means have spoken in the highest terms of this location as a summer resort, and will no doubt take slock in the company to be organized. Tho only thing that was lacking before the fire last week was more room and some means of amusement. With this, a large crowd would be on hand throughout the season Let our people go to work and see to it that a large hotel is ready for the guests next season. Mr. Kluttz in the County. Hon. Theo. F. Kluttz made several speeches in the conuty last week and from all sides wo hear the most Jcncoui aging reports he has met our people and they have confi dence in him. Of course he regrets that he is forced to campaign alone but after all his pleadings Mr. Black burn gave him the naarble heart and he was forced to go it alone Mr. Kluttz could use him to a splended advantage in his buiness at pres ent. Mr. Kluttz tells ug that his crowds have been larger than he expected, and he is well pleased with the situa tion and estimates his majority at not less than 2,000. Mr. Blackburn was quite active in th;s county week before last, but he made it convenient to seek other pastures when Mr. Kluttz appearred on the scene he was forced to meet him once during this crmpaign and he is sufficiently amused. Mr. Kluttz is a forceful, but mod est speaker, and he never fails to capture those who hear him. He will probably visit this county again during the campaign. How It Works. The farmers who have been organ izing for many years for the purpose of recuring better and cheaper rail road transpotation for theTr market able products, are now becoming awake to the fact that a great reform is needed in the people's own roads right at home. An unnecessary and very expensive evil has been per mitted to exist at their very doors. They have been wasting much val uable timo and horseflesh in getting produce to market. Farmers aie at last learning that it costs more to haul a load to tho station a few miles away than it does to havo it transported from the station to the faraway seaboards.
