OPENING OK TOBACCO MAKZET.
Tuesday was. a big day in Rob- J'
ersonviile. The occasion was the
opening of the tobacco market for
the season of 1903 and 1904, and it
the market.
Fuiiy 2000 people witnessed the
owning sale, which was lively and
! enthusiastic despite the low prices
that prevailed. The interest in the
market is greater than ever before
and there is no doubt hut that this
is going to be the leading market in
Martin county. There was abund
ant evidence of that fact manifested
here Tuesday. The market is in
better condition than ever before,
a:id the werehousemen, buyers and
citizens arc nnited in their efTorts,
which fact makes success a known
quantity. The prices Tuesday were
low compared with last season, but
as high here as they were at Green
ville, Wil-011 or Wocky Mount. 46,-
000 pounds were sold on the three
floors i»ere Tuesday with an aver
age of about 6 cents per ponnd,anci
! this was as good as Wilson and
j Greenville according to the testi
mony of disinterested persons, who
were present r.t the opening sales
of those places. Because of the low
prices, it was feared that the sale
would bs dull and uninteresting
.uk! that the farmers would )>e dis
pleased and kick to unknown limits
hut, this was not the case. Of
course they were not satisfied, but
| they submitted with a good grace,
;»nd took what they knew to be the
behest market price without
thanks. Robersonville is iu a po
j sition and is going to handle the
iiioiw share of the Martin cron as it
jhas always done. The farmer;
j have Jong since found _pnt that it
does not pay to haul the staff a long
distance when they know that they
can get just as much nearer. No
one knows how the prices are go
to ht; bat cue-thiwy- is wwi >lwy
will not go much lower, and it is
the opinion of most tobacco* people
t iiSt the farmers are going to hold
their stuff until later in the season,
for if they have got to give it away,
liicy realize that they can do that
most anytime, and there is no reas
on why they slionld be in a hurry
about it.

And • father'* tender care.
'Twas there my hands first learned to

And sinj! in broken cfilklhood Ursins,
When trace mv feet eonld
'Twas there I learned to love the trnth,
To speak and act the umr,
And when I did an ugly thing
To hide my fae'e in shame.
And there I learned to reverence God,
To sjieak His name nith fear,
tliat I mi;;ht live a peaceful life.
With conscience pure and clear.
A mothers' and a fathers* love
Are to me the brightest gems,
for what I am in life to-day.
I owe it all to them.
The greatest lesson I ever learned,
