A hot wave struck these parts, Satur day, and the wave has grown steadily hotter since, until last night poor swelt ering humanity had about all the warmth It could endure. The forecast Indicates that today will be another scorcher. The Sunday 8hoo-Fly train going to Morehead was crowded as usual. These Sunday excursions are extremely popu' lar among the country people, who but for them and the low fare would have but little chance to go to the seashore. There will be a big auction sale of on called freight at the A & N C road's Trent river warehouse, Wednesday, August 26 at 13 o'clock, noon.

I was very much Im pressed withthe large 'number present and with the earnestness that was dis played. It seems thst there is practical ly only one buyer of tobacco In North Carolina, and they do to suit themselves having ao regard for any one, there tu a time when thero was numerous buyers of tobacco, but the American Tobacco Company has either bought them all up or put them out of business. So there Is only one party to bay, it will soon be the case with all of your products unless you do something to checkmate them. Now the remedy, and the only remedy is organization, that Is what they have done, that is whst you must do, but peo ple say farmers will not pull together, well you must pull together or be crush ed. You can meet and pass resolutions but that does not amount to anything, In fact the big combinationsant you to do this, they look upon ft as a safety valve. You gentlemen aro now con fronted with the Tobacco Trust, tbe Meat Trust, the Fertilizer Trust, the Cotton tie Trust, the Cotton Combina tion, the Labor 7 rust and a host of others, now you must have a combine, a trust, or sink, Nearly everything you buy is Trust made, you pay what they ask, you sell for what they may give you. A git at financier once said If he held the purse strings of a nation he could dictate Its doIIcv. But 1 eav that If be held the man behind the plow, he would soon hold the purse strings. There was a resolution passed at S;- urdays meeting asking that a meeting be held in each township on Saturday next Now hold that meeting, do not pass any resolutions, but appoint a commit tee of three from each township to meet with a like committee of merchants at New Bern on the second Saturday in September, then and there formulate a plan of campaign, map out the lines on which you wish to go and stick to it, then you will soon find that you have a hand In making the value of your own products.

August SU-Mr David Foyaad KleU ard Laroque of MaysvUla were In last week taking in our breeze, they are! new merchants of Mays rills bow. Messrs James Holland and T A Bell of Pollochsvllle were our visitors last meek they ere the guests of Mr D G. Moore. Schooners 8uale Bryant, Ifept Blood- good and Roemer, Capt Marine, left here last Saturday for Utt'e Rtver S C, loadtd with the saw m 11 fixtures of Mr. Then, McGinn, who will put up his mill there. . Mr WE Ketcham and family formerly of Swansbore. have moved to Little River SC. Mr K will work as sawyer for Mr McGinn la his mill, Mr Robert Irvla of Carteret Co. goes with Mr Mc Ginn as saw filer. There will be a Rosette and Ice Cream party la Moore's Hall here, on Friday evening the 28th, Aug. 1908. Refresh ments and music will be a part of pro gramme. Entertainment for tbe benefit of the Saransboro Institute, everybody Is Invited. A grand and good time ex pected, and for a good . cause too, come. Geo. Willis has been here moving the mill and fixtures of Mr McGinn, on board the vessels for Little River, S C Mr Willis ssys he wtll go with the party to help put ep the mill and while there, will visit the "tomb" of his great grand father, Capt Eden Morse, who died there Capt Morse was the first man that ever built a steam boat la th'a country, and bis "hlp yard" was at Little Rtver, 8 Rain ! rain! rain t' Fodder aU ruined, cotton about to be, sweet potatoes likely to rot lit the ground, ground peas and field peas the same, tobacco gone to the Trusts," nothing for the farmer but a mortgage on ycurmule for fertilizers not to say the Interest on the money he has pent, so it goes on and on but the Trusts don't care a red, see. The other dsy a man carried a load of obacco to Kins ton to sell, slso a coop of chickens for his wife, he first sold the chickens all but two large hens, he want ed more price for them, so didn't sell, carried his tobacco to the warehouse, tbe tobacco men took it, graded it to suit themselves, sold and etc. also to suit themselves. We guess when the man was told the tocaceo lacked just 63 cents pay Ing expenses, the poor farmer was non plussed, didn't know what to do, he did not bring any money with him, even it he had It to bring; the tobacco men want ed their money, that 83 cents had to come, so Mr man thought of his two hens unsold, went and sold them for 80c each, but that left two cents behind, luck would have it for the man once, his two hens had laid an egg apiece, they were sold for a penny each, the debt 63c, was paid and the poor farmer left Klnston, minus tobacco, chickens, eggs, money and very little to eat except what he brought with him from his home. How Is that for a trust tobacco sale, and yet we have to pay as much for a pound of sorry tobacco now, as we ever did. Di a at her home on .Bear Creek on Tuesday morning the 18th Inst, Mrs Jane Rlggs, widow of the late Isaac Rtggs, in the 82nd year of her age.

So very much rala Is dam aging to cotton and Is delaying fodder polling. The extreme low prices ottobaeeo is very discouraging to farmers.

JThe weather was not at Its best, but not withstanding that fact, dozena of wel come visitors, from far and near, came la to spend tbe week among onr hospit able and "company0 loving people, whO with their usual kindness and generosity made them feel quite at home, Tbe pra-ence of the many young lady visitor seemed to awaken the old town to new life, and to bring about an air of tntlre satisfaction to everyone, as was evidenced by their beaming, smiling countenanc e, and by the extra "up-to-date airs" that were ''put on,, by our vast tribe of "Bachelors (De art.") Even some of the most retired ones ventured forth 'earning glances" but were vera cautious. Among our host of visitors were: Miss Bessie Hewitt from Richmond, Mioses Barbara Andrews, Ruby and Betsy Foy and Essie Hargett from Kins- ton, Misses Lizzie and Zinnia Koonoe and Katie Hargett from Richlands, .Hiss Mary Cook from Loulsburg.

The one at Tabernacle Grove on Friday was a success also, and was at tended by a large number of people and visitors. Friday night a crowd of our young people and visitors, numbering forty-five enjoyed some royal tun in the way of a 'bay ride," driving a distance of 5 miles n to the country. Tbe crowd was made :p of an equal number of ladles snd gen :enen, snd were out for fun, and to make noise as doubtless some of the country people who lived near tha road learned. It was the most enjoyable af fair of the week. We would like to give a full account of IV, but time and space will not permit us to say more. Any way, we will say, don't miss a hay ride unless you aro ill. The MaysvlUe Supply Co., have re ceived their fall line of suits ranging from $7.50 to $15 00. See them before purchasing a suit.
