BOUNDARY LINES OF VOT
ING PRECINCTS.
The Sun desires to call especial
. .."'.
attention to the notice of the
boundary lines of the voting pre
cincts in Salisbury township w luVli
has appeared in this pnpor fo
several days. There are more oi
less changes made in the boundary
lines from the former lines. It is
i
important then for the citizens to
become familiar with the boun-
daries. Unless
they do there is
likely to be confusion and dissat
isfaction on election day. Each
voter should study the new boun
dary lines, find for a certainty in
which voting precinct he resides
so as to be able to vote and to
avoid controversy. j
The notice will appear in the
Sun for some time, there will
- i
therefore be no excuse for not
r
knowing the boundary lines nor
in what voting precint each one.
must vote. It will be observed
that the greatest change, perhaps,
is in the East ward voting pre
cinct. The voters in that precinct
should look carefully over the
line and get fully acquainted with
its boundary.
Too much emphasis can ; hardly
be placed upon the fact that it Is
necessary for the voters to know
the boundary lines well. They
must know the lines if they would
be able to vote. j
The change, however, will only
effect a part of the citizens of the
town, those living near the former
boundaries. We desire, though, to
call the attention of all to the
change so that no mistake will
possibly be made. , i
The Spanish soldiers are bet
ter off as captives in the United
States than they were as free men
in Santiago.. They are treated
kindly and fed well. Besides.
they can sell every button on theii
coats at $5 apiece and can get . $25
for any sort of old Spanish hat.
1 According to the Iron age the
ex xrts of the United States in the
year ended June 30, 1898, includ
in agricultural products, exceeded
the exports of Great Brittain in the
safoe period by about $80,000,000.
The outflow of grain in the twelve
-
months was extraordinary and
broke the record. It is the first
time that British exports have been
exceeded, in tne last ten years
British exports have averaged t an
excess over ours of some $70j000,
00C. The United States is evi
dently distancing all competitors
in the extent of its ; material re
sources.
-Says the Wilmington Star:
We cannot, relieve our-State of the
blight of Russell, but we can elect
a Legislature which will protect
hei tie Russell's hands, make bini
po verless and a cipher for mis
chief. Four years of Russell is
pretty rough, but with a Demo
cratic Legislature we can stand
Rulssell for two years more, for
then it will be simply Russell
without Russellism which for the
past two years has given North
Carolina such an unenviable noto-
rie
