The Biggest Thin- of Its Kind
j in North Carol in i.
J In onr rambles this morning, we
ran up with Mr. Frank 8tronach, one
of the foremost burin- ss men in the
ciy. In conversation with him he
said Bomethiug about shipping some
buggies to Alabama. We had no
idea that the carriage factories of
Raleigh were shipping goods that far
from home, but on .looking through

Mass Meeting of Citizens.
Quite a large meeting of the demo
cratic citizens of Raleigh called for
the purpose of considering the best
means of nominating City officers, was
held at the Court House last night.
Mr. No B. Bronghton was selected as
chairman and explained the object of
the meeting.
Mr. W. N. Joues made a few re
marks saying that he believed the
people should have a free voice in
electing officers. He favored a com
mittee to formulate plans to be re
ported at another meeting.
Mr. J. C. Marcom said he signed
the petition readily. He thought the
best manner to get the sense of the
people, was through the primaries.
Mr. J. H. Enniss said he hoped the
meeting would formulate some plan
for a free expression of opinion.
Mr. W. G. Upchurch thought the
best men to elect as Aldermen should
be to choose those who were not so
aggressive in seeking office.
Dr. R. H. Lewis saw no reason for
the meeting. He defended the city
administration against the charge of
being a ring. Paid a compliment to
the democracy of the city clerk, and
said that Mayor Thompson had made
a faithful servant. He saw no ne ;es
sity for changing the plan of nomina
ting and electing officers. -
Mr. Jogephus Daniels moved a com
mittee be appointed by the Chair to
report a plan andjjreport at some fu
ture meeting adopted. ,
The following were appointed:
1st ward F. O. Moring.
2d " Josephus Daniels.
3d " W.N.Jones.
4th " Rev. F. L. Reid.
6th " J. C. Marcom.
The question of a milk and meat
inspector was taken up. It was ad
vocated by Dr. Lewis and Mr. A. D.
Jones.
Mr. C. B. Edwards offered the fol
lowing resolution which was adopted:
Resolved, That the committee ap
pointed recommend to the adjourned,
meeting what officers. t any, should
be voted for by the people.,
The meeting then adjourned to meet
next Tuesday night, on motion of Mr.
J. H. Enniss, at the same place. :
We learn that, for good reasons,
Rev. F. L. Reid declines to serve on
the committee provided or above and
th.e chairman has -been so notified
a,nd, will jpnt some one in his place.
Mr. Reid was not present at the meet
ing last night

You Know We are Right.
If you are to buv anv sDrinc coods
- - o o
and you are like all mankind.you are
anxious to know where your money
will buy the best values. Now there
is one truism: If you do not try the
different stores you will not know
where the beat values are to be had.
Listen: Swindell claims to fell goods
for less money than any one else in
Raleigh. Now, because he claims
this you need not go to his store only
and then part with other stores. Trv
all. Don't go right to Swindell's and
nowhere else. Some one else may be
onering oaits. in hat case go to
them and get the bait; hy this means
you are benefitted. Now, if you have
been trading at Swindell's ten or
twelve years, it is time you made a
change. All wise people and nations
make changes every two and four
years. Thus the President of the
0. S. must step down and out after
four years. Same with the Governor.
Sam.e rule holds good with you.
Change your place of trading fre
quently. If you want a suit of nice
tailor made clothes, get it from Swin
dell, If you want a nice trimmed
hat, get it at Swindell's. If you want
a nice dress, get that from Swindell's.
Also get shoes from Swindell's.
