PRIMARIES MAY 28TH. The Executive Committee met. The Convention to be Held Jane 4th. Other Notes. y The Democratic Executive Com mittee of Rowan county met Satur day in the court house and was called to order by Jno. M. Julian, chairman. In a short speech Mr.-. Julian de clared the object of the meeting and the order of business was then : begun. - . Kev. Dr. J. N. Stallings on be half of the Anti-Saloon Iieagne, appeared before the comniittee and asked that those who vote in the' primary be not required to sup port a candidate unless they so de sire. This request of Dr. Stall ing? was signed by President N. B. McCaniess and m'any others. Walter hjrphy, Esq., opposed this measure as did others, vigor ously, and it was lost. Mr, Overman moved that the time for holding the primaries and convention be called. He Suggested that Saturday, -Mav 28, be the pri mary election and the following Saturday, June 4, be the day of county convention. After discussion,this was adopt ed, j -' It Ayas moved by Mayor Boyden that the usual qualifications of vo ters at the primaries obtain in this election and that the call to voters be made as heretofore. This was heartily re-affirmed. ' It was moved by Mr. Lohnie Harris and carried that a precinct be established at J. P. Wise's for the convenience of voters at ' this primary. ' - Twenty-six members of the county executive committee were in attendance and the enthusiasm was of the kind tliat bodes ill for the Rupyblican that goes up against the Rowan Democracy. . Note: Tlie editor, of this paper wrote the article in the Sun and if ted it bodily from it. In Mon day's issue Dr. Stallings declares tnat ne appeared in penair, not oi he league, but m individual ca pacity as a promoter of Democrat ic interests. .He also says Mr Mc Canles and others did ngt sign the petition as Anti-baloon members, but as Democrats.

We have never questioned Dr. Stall ing s sunbendmg Democracy, and did not so intend in the article mentioned. Ed. ' v LOCAL NEWS. Col. J: C. Steele, of Charlotte, was in Salisbury yesterday. Say, ain't it about time you were voting for. your favorite? Only four more weeks. Frank Trott, who has been liv ing in ChaMotte, for the past year, left last night for Washington, D. C, where he will resid in the future. The families of Messrs. Richard Eames, Jr., and Walter. Black mer, will move soon to New York City, where business interests call them both. Dr. T. Walter Grimes who pur chased the Isenhour and Bean stock of drugs last week, the con sideration being 81,100 opened his stock .today and will continue there for the future. Ir. - J. B. Isen hour goes with Theo. F, Kluttz & Company. , Earle' H. Thompson left last night for St. Louis, Mo., where he has been appointed by Senator Overman with the National Guards nt.tKafT.lnnD--- if ic nn hnr Mr Thompson being one of the two from thi StitP TTn Will hftnnp about eight months. John O. Benson left yesterday morning for Cooleemee where his father was hurt Monday in the roller mills, there. In the discharge of his work, Mr. Benson's hand was caught and the right arm bro- tron linrllv TTic liit-ri Krro tttv- truded through the flesh and the injury is very serious. ' ; 6 ir. J no." W. Glover, one of the 6 rery finest shoemakers in the country, will give up his work this week: ana go next week to States- ville with Ms Eerris wheel. He will join the Pierce Carnival Com- pany. This necessitates his being from Salisbury most of the time, a cause for regret, Mr. Glover is a most excellent citizen. OFF TO WILKESB0R0. A Large Delegation Goes td the Convention There. - Messrs. J. II. Ramsay, Jno. L. Rendleman, W. Henry Hobson, Jr. Jas. D. Dorsett, T. H. Stewart, Theo. Atwell, Dan Goodson, Chas. Viele, Victor Correll, R. N. West, Chas. J. Kesler, ,B- A. Knox; Jesse P. Crowell, Jno. E. Ramsy, T. M. Kern, Dee C. Mock and R. F. Co ble, delegates to the Republican convention at Willesboro, left this morning to take part in the nomi nation of a candidate tomorrow There were several alternates in the party too. i These delegates go instructed for A. H. Price Esq., and will make a hard fight for him. There never has been such a con test. for a Republican nomination in thisState, and in this district, regarded by Democrats as safely democratic, the Republicans are of the opinion that they can win. For j personal reasons and because of his clean record and uniform pop ularity, we want to see Mr. Price nominated, but for political van tage grounds, we'd like to see E. Spencer selected as standard bear er. He will be easy to beat. , Mr. Blackburn you are a nice looking young fellow, in fact you are a dude, a pretty man, just the kind a Grecian goddess" would haVe stolen two thousand years ago; but mark this, it is written in the heav ens, and on every leaf and twig and blade of grass, that when the Dem ocrats get through with you, there'll be nothing left to appoint a receiver over. System for Firemen. Monday night the firemen met and discussed some changes in the present system of the firemen, among these was the agreement that only responsible persons be allowed to mount the fire wagon and any others than those in charge should be indicted for so doing. It wasr resolved that in the fu ture all firemen shall go through the. main entrance of the city hall and through tKe hallway to the door connecting with" the city sta ble to secure fire suits. This is done in order to prevent theTemoraliza tion of the horses by stopping them after they have started from the hall and also to avert danger of bystanders. Chief Wallace was authorized to prepare a set of rules with refer ence to the conduct of the individ ual members at a fire. Mass Meeting. As will be seen in the address of the county committee of the Anti-Saloon League there will be held in the court house, at 12 m next Saturday, a mass meeting of the opponents of the liquor traffic. It is expected that Mr. J: W. Bailey of Raleigh, and others will address the meeting. Come one an! all. Anti-Saloon League. The next meeting will be held next Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock, in the room on W. Fisher St. next door to Cornelison & Cook's, ,No. 105. That meeting will be very important, because the officers for tire next year ar.e to be elected there. It is hoped there j will be a full attendance. Respt. J. N. Staulings, Pres.

Turner , Thompson, of the county, met at his home and gave him a most royal pounding. There were nearly 200 of them, and such a spread is rarely seen anywhere. Several Salisburians were there. Music and Various games came afterwards, and all in all, it was one of the, exceptional days of a lifetime. SPENCER'S NEW BUILDINGS. A Very Fine one and Decidedly a Business Block. Fine Bank Apartments. V The new brick building on Salisr bury Avenue in Spencer is occu pied now and is one of the hand somest structures in this'section of the State.

Mr. Phil lips will enterWihool at Crescent. Corn planting is near at hand and the farmers are taking advantage of the beautiful weather by turning their ground and preparing their soils. Wheat is looking well over this warm weather, while oats is a failure in some cases. Mr. Paul Barger has the, finest pats in this section while Mr. Paul Phillips comes with the finest wheat,' Capt. J. A. Gill, superintedent of the stamp mill at , this place, came very near losing one of his eyes by getting a piece c flint in it last week Well! alas, alas, the rural free deliv ery from Salisbury.has beert established at last, and guess-very body (or some at least) have been satisfied, we hope m.?

Eller the butch er. One was 4 months and 23 days old and weighed 302 pounds, the other was 3 months and 22 days old -and weighed 250 pounds. Who can. beat that for stock raising; We note that "Bro. X." of Manning, wants to say "amen" to "A Word to Correspondents". Good, we say " amen" too, but first we would like to ask Bro. X., which is more "dead stuff," as he terms it, to write, . thevisits of young gentlemen and their escorts through the columns of a newspaper, or to an nounce e that vour ' 'beloved old bachelor' ' has purchased a new suit or spring clothas? If the "old bachelor" is able to buv a suit of clothes4 and neds-them let him buy. it. He isn't the only man that can wear spring suits.

U - i - - m-mm -. v A Phantom Phake. And now comes the shoemaker's Journal and assures us ' that child labor makes criminals. It says abolish child labor and. the peni tentiaries will soon be empty. This is what we have been look- u. to scorn because it made otherwise lonest men steal but now we get tnat child labor is the cause all This may be true, and if it is, thereishope. It has always seemed to us that there was a great deal of maudlin rant and rot about this child labor business.: Of course,it is true that some children know no childhood they are early put to the treadmill work-but there is no evidence yet in that honest labor ever started a child towards the penitentiary. No. child should be ing for and waiting for. We had ims ane' Doys snowea heard that whiskey caused most all marked superiority over theLa the crime; it had been said that idle- f ayette -clFf d m, battlDg and m ness was the main cause of most ver towrf we are going to of it. Gambling has been held up ?a? on .best college teams compelled to work ten or twelve av nfT. hours a day and no child would box is entirely too wdd, but other be compelled to thus labor were it Wise m an unusually good pitcher not for parents who not only pre- a lf ? n control down, mititbut force it.

' Were the hundreds of idle kids who. loaf around towns smoking! cigarettes and planning mischief put at work, the chances are that they would make better and' more useful citizens when they reach ma turity .
