STATESVILLE. Statesville has made a bi stride forward in the last half of this year, and her business men and citizens generally are not to outdone by her larger rival?.

Then, too,her markets for produce compare favorably (with . ., r - tue advantage of COUVeuieuee) with those of Charlotte or Wins- .m .kfiwl' ton or other points to which our people ship. We desire to briefly note such J 0 ,,t3r arms as aaxertise in tue JoUKNAL, but have not space to .. ... r ) an..we.woum like 10. a. Moses & co. This is one of the best kown firms in Statesville, and deserves the good name it has with our people.

This is an old hardware house, and one that is prepared 10 fill all orders in its line. Keeps a full supply of sporting goods, &c. Solicits a call from buyers. K. B. WATTS. Here is a house dealing in all kinds of family groceries, and keeps a full stock of fresh goods. Tobacco a specialty. Is anxious to buy farm produce of every des cription. W. K. ANDERSON. This is the candy store man, but he dosn't confine himself to can dies. He can supply you with canned goods,sauces groceries,&c. These firms are bidding for trade from this sectiou, and are offering inducements that will wiu. There is one other firm in Statesville which, while not an advertiser with us, it will be to the advantage of our people gen erally for us to call the particular attention of our retail merchants to. We refer to the wholesale house of Wallace Bros. We were shown through their es tablishment, and saw the goods from which samples were being made up for their spring trade, and we are sure no one in all this section need go beyond Statesville for their retail stock. In conclusion, we would advise those of our people who go out of the county to trade to stop as close to home as possible, for the turther away the money noes the lougvr ir( Will Uk U W jfttt bck. The Speakership. From the Charlotte Chronicle. The contest for the speakership of the House of; .Representatives of the North Carolina legislature, is now on. Tbfese are the promi nent candidates: Augustus Leazer of Mooresville, Iredell county; M. E. Carter, of Asheville, and Chas. M. Cook, of Franklin. The two last are lawyers. Mr. Leazer is the only . candidate not a lawyer. There are nineteen law yers in the assemblv. thirteen in the Senate and six in the House. The senatorial election will have something to do with the speak ership. It may be accepted that the farmers intend to have their share of honors out of this assem bly. The plum they are after is the U. S. senatorship. If they get that, they may consent to a law yer's being made speaker; so it just may be that Mr. Leazer may have to be sacrificed for votes for Alexander. Mr. Leazer is thor oughly capacitated by nature, en dowments and mental cultivation and fitted by experience and keen observation for the speakership. It is known, however, that, he has uo particular fancy for Gen. Ban som, and that may be the very reason that he may have to be sacrificed for votes for the farm ers candidate for the 0. S. sena torship. On the other hand,should the legislature be under the abso lute control of the alliance men and. their friends, it may be that they will demand a genuiue agri cultural regime, and capture the speakership for Mr. Leazer as well as the senatorship for Capt. Alex ander. , :. It is claimed, however, by men who are in with those politicians who have been taking a census of the new legislature, that neither Mr. Carter nor Mr. Cook is form idable. In fact, it is alleged that the face of the "returns" show that Mr. Leazer's election to speakership, is settled beyond fur thur contest. This is truly a hap py solution. The State of North Carolina could not place its inter ests so far as the speakers of 7 he House is concerned, in better hands. If this is settled, and those who assert it speak "by the book', by the census returnswhy, then, it does look as if the farmers already had control of the House. There is nothing to regret about this fact. Its bearing on the U.S. senatorship, is, however, very in teresting to contemplate. If the farmers can elect the Speaker, it is more than likely that they will be able to control the U. S. sen atorship; in which case it is cer tain that Capt. Alexander will be their choice. The fact that the Captain received from the postoffice Thursday and Friday about sixty letters with N. C. postmarks, is suggestive of the many proffers of support that he is receiving. To Annex Canada. From the New and Observer. Congressman Ben Butterwortb, of Ohio, has introduced for refer ence a joint resolution authorizing the President "to invite negotia tions looking to the assimilation and unity of the people of the Dominion of Canada and the United States under onr govern ment, such unity and assimilation to be based up61j the admission of the several provinces of the Do minion or any one of them iuto the Union of States, upon the tame terms and equality with the several States now composing the Union, &c, &c." But where would our rogues go if Canada should come in! Are we not bound to provide for this large part of our population! HEADQUARTERS FOR .CHRISTMAS ; AT W. E. ANDERSON'S, C. Special Courses of Instructions for Teachers. In continuation of the plan .of last year the authorities of tho University of North Carohaa have . decided to offer special courses of. instruction for the benefit of the teachers of the State. Theso courses will begin on February IS, 1889. From the following outline of studies it will be seen that large liberty :of election ii possi ble. These are special courses adapted to teachers and are not the ordinary college classes. . Science and art of teaching. Elementary course in tuenta! aud moral science with special ref erence to teaching. Elementary algebra aud geom etry. Short course in latin. Teacher's course in chemistry. Geology and physical geog raphy of North Carolina. Elements of natural philosphy. Law of domestic relations. English language and literature. Short course in french and ger man. Short course in greek. Classes will be organized in any one of these courses on applica tion from five teachers. No .er trance nor other examination. will be required. The courses wili last three months. The faculty 1 earnestly recommend that the teachers como at the opening and remain for the full three months. Wrhere that is not possible, two months or even one may prove of great benefit. There are no charges for tuition. The only fee is one of So-, which includes matriculation, room-rent, servant's hire, &c. Board can be secured at from 1 8 to $12 per month. Death of Daniel Finger. From the Newton Enteprise, Daniel Finger died at his homo in this place Tuesday afternooD, iu the 83rd: year of his age. A quiet, dignified, robust, useful and popular old gentleman has been taken from us by his death. Until about seven years he resided near Matthews church in Lincoln coun ty, and for half a century was one of the pillars of the German Re formed church of that community. In secular affairs he was also one of the most influential and pnblio spirited men of his couuty. He was a farmer and a tanner, and was actively engaged in bofia these lines of business until he moved to Newton. Since he has been a resident of this place hi quiet, consistent life has made everybody his friend. He has married twice. Of his first wife's children, Maj. S. M. Finger, Mrs. Fry and Mrs. J. D. Lowe are still living. His second wife and one daughter also survive him. His remains were deposited' in the Newton cemetery at 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Pine Straw Bagging. At the annual meeting of the Charleston, S. C, Cotton Ex change a report was made on ex periments conducted through tho summer with pine fibre cotton bagging as a substitute for jute bagging. The report brings out some points which are considered important. - It has been demonstrated that the pine fibre cotton bagging can be manufactured at almost any weight per yard. It will not rot nor stain cotton. It can be man ufactured and sold at less price than the jute bagging, even if jute should be placed on the free list. The committee under whoso di rection the experiments were made think that with improved machinery the manufactur of pine stray bagging will becomo one of the moat profitable indus tries in the South. The raw ma terial costs absolutely nothing be yond the expense of gathering it from the ground aud transporting it to Iter BiUt.
