NOTICE.
Beginning on February 1st,
1899, we will begin to operate a
business strictly upon a cash
basis. For years past we have
incorporated the credit system,
but upon a careful study and re
flection think our interest de
mands a cash plan, and we have
resolved to inaugurate such a
system beginning on the above
-date. Goods will be sold at the
closest figures, and we believe
our patrons will take advantage
of the small margin in profit.
We earnestly solicit all those
we have favored in the past and
are now doing, to call on or be
fore the above date (Feb. 1, '99;,
aud liquidate their indebtedness.
We are ever ready to fill your
orders and trust this notice 'will
be taken in the right spirit and
that all will act accordingly.
Yours for success.

-Representative Stevens' bill,
introduced ir the house against
trusts, declares all such com
binations illegal and makes it
impc88ible for any trust to en
force its contracts in this State,
by .declaring them void and
providing that any purchaser
from any company which is a
member of a trust can plead
the provisions of this act as a
defense in any action brought
by such company. He says it
contains substantially provis
ions of the M'ssouii law which
the supreme court of that State
has declared constitutional.
The bill also provides that
in case of suits against the
trusts, the prosecuting solicitor
shall be entitled to $100 fe if
conviction is secured.
It is intimated that the rail
way commission may be abol
ished and then, after an inter
regnum, another one will be
created with larger powers and
greater scope.
The chairman of the house
military committee says the
bill to increase the appropri
ation to the State guard to $20,
000 will pass. The fusionists
cut the appropriation down to
$6,500 a year.
A big pine lumber trust, to
control the North Carolina pine
markets, is proposed, the
scheme being backed by heavy
Boston capital. It is estimated
that it will require $20,000,000
to finance the new concern.
Greenville Reflecter: here
is getting to be much talk now
about the establishment of a
dispensary and, as has already
been announced, the movement
is on foot to make application
to the general assembly to pass
such a law for tnis county.
Mr. J. P. Caldwell, editor
Charlotte Observer, recently in
Raleigh, sent a very interesting
letter to his paper. He says:
"It may be safely said that an
election law, similar to the Wal
ton law of Virginia, will be en
acted, and that, under it there
will be submitted to the people
a constitutional amendment, the
adoption of which the words
may as well be said will dis
franchise the negroes but not
the illiterate whites. The basis
of this will be the Louisiana
plan. The objection that has
been raised to this is that its
constitutionality is said to be in
doubt and that it has never been
passed on by; the courts. A
learned lawyer was heard to
say that he had drafted an
amendment to this plan which
would make it constitutional be
yond a doubt. The most delib
erate and pains taking consider
ation is being given this subject.
With equal certainty as to the
foregoing, it may be said that
the penitentiary will be taken
into the hands of the legislature
and that Capt. Day will be re
moved from its superintendency
by the abolishment of his office
or otherwise. "
Now the legislature has de
cided to place the government
of the penitentiary in charge cf
a committee of one from each
judicial district. Capt. Day
says he will refuse to resign,
and appeal to the courts.
The names of Leazor and Ay
cock of Wayne, are prominent
ly mentioned in connection
with the management of the
penitentiary.
How to Prevent Pneumonia.
You are perhaps aware that
paeumonia always results from
a cold or from an attack of la
grippe. During the epidemic
of la grippe a few years ago
when so many cases resulted in
pneumonia, it was observed
that the attack was never fol
lowed by that disease when
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
was used. It contracts anv
tendency of a cold or la grippe
to result in that dangerous dis
ease. It js the boat
the world for bad colds and la
grippe. Every bpe. k warrant-
