County Iudex Book. At the recent meeting of the J us tices of the Peace for Wake County, a resolution was adopted requesting the County Commissioners to provide suitable double index books for the office of Register of Deeds, or to have the present ones overhauled and cor rected. This is a matter of the utmost im portance to the people of all classes in Wake County, and should be promptly attended to. In fact, it has been too long neglected. The books now in use have become so thumb worn and mutilated as to almost ren der them useless, and unless some remedy is applied it will be difficult, in the not distant future to trace a title deed correctly. We hope the Board of County Commissioners will not allow this matter to slumber much longer. It will have to be at tended to finally, and, this being the case, why not apply the remedy at once. As the books now exist they are a disgrace to Wake County. Be Sure That You Got the Date Right, It is Thursday, Junk 18th On next Thursday, June 18th, we will have another big special sale.
