Never In the history of politics In this coun ty have there been so many men "In the hands of their friends" wanting to serve the dear people to 'the best, of their skill and ability. The old, soldiers are dropping off the stage of action very rapidly. W. C. Combs, a splendid soldier of the l.'tth N. C. troops, passed over the i Tver a few days ago. A revival meeting Is being conduc ted at Dan Valley Missionary Baptist church and much interest Is being nlanifested. Crowds from town go ottt every night. Wm. joneB, of Rldgeway, Va., paid this town a visit last night In his au tomobile. He was kind enough to give manv of the voting ladles an out ing.

It is said a local option election will soon be held to see If a quietus can not be given It, A gentleman of capita made ar rangements to make this town his home, but as soon as (he saloon was established he decided to go else where. - Crops generally are In fine condi tion and for once the farmers have nothing to grumble about.

This town is split Into three fac tionssocial, religious and political on account of the sale of liquor In our midst, and much bitterness Is the outcome. fire horse generally Is a fine speci men of horse flesh, especially thos iu the Wlnstou Salem department. They are kept fat and sleek, not because they are fed too much, but because of the fact that some times for days and weeks the hor-ea ha,ve nothing lo do but go through the regular routine of dally practice. But when the fire horse Is needed he Is needed at one and then It Is that he Is required to work for his feed. A horse in a fire department is al ways a general pet. Take for In stance old Vance, the large grey that a few years ago was considered the most perfect specimen of Ore horse In the Stale. He was so large, so fat, so pretty and so good nalured that It was a wonder that his digestive fix tures were not ruined, for some one was always feeding him apples or candy or sugar. And Vance was ambi tious he was always ready and will ing to go at the tup of the bell, but Vance did like so much to putjun airs. He would arch hln pretty neck and look so hanghty when in harness thai one ensiil hardly help going up to him and patting his neck. 0)Hancf is now In the list of lias-bcHmev and occasionally he may be seen about the streets draw lug a one-horse wagon, but he seems to feel the shame which old age has brought upon him and now he pulls Ihe wagon about in a don't-care sort of way. with his head down, and one would hardly recognize him as the one-time proud young fire horse that the department refused seven hundred dollars for.
