THIRTY-EIGHTH IXSTA IjLMKXT. (From The Gazette of Apr. 16, '81.) f. Wm. M. Reedy and Mr. How ard Reedy, of 'Brevards, were in Chester on a visit last week. The high wind Tuesday evening opUfted the roof of Mr. P. J. Line berger's large new barn and carried It to the ground. We understand that Mr. Harvey H. Dickson, of Gaston, was married last week but we were not furnished with any notice. Our subscribers in Mississippi, Ar kansas and Texas whose times have expired' may not expect to receive another number of the paper unless we are notified to continue. We .would be pleased to continue them as this year will be an exciting and in teresting one over the prohibition question. Several young ladies and gentle men camn into Gastonia Tuesday from Lincoln county to witness the marriage ceremony of Mr. R. Lee Garrison of Lincoln county to Miss Florence Head of this town.

In disguise, who are assiduously seeking to weaken the cause by rais ing certain objections to the bill as SEVERE PUNISHMENT Of Mrs. Oappell, of Fire Tears' Standmf , Relieved by Cardui. ML Airy, N. C Mrs. Sarah M. Chap- Eell of this town, says: "I suffered for re years with womanly troubles, also stomach troubles, and my punishment was more than any one could tell. I tried most every kind of medicine, . bat none did me any good. I read one day about Cardui, the wo man's tonic, and I decided to try it. I . bad not taken but about six bottles until - 1 was almost cured. It did me more rood than all the other medicines 1 had .. fried, put together. My friends began asking me why I looked so well, and I told them about ' Cardui Several are now taking iL" Do you, lady reader, suffer from any h wc aiimems oue 10 womanly trouble, ; such as headache, backache, sideache. sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired ' feeling? h If so. let us urge you to give Cardui a - trial.

I.C. 14 THE EIGHTIES passed at the late session of the Leg islature. and thus draw the attention of the unwary from the real issue. The bill to be entitled "An act to prohibit the manufacture and salo of spirituous and malt liquors, is not to come before the people for ratifl cation. Such a provision would doubt less be unconstitutional. But the question which is to come before trie people of North Carolina on the first Monday in August next, is "Prohibi tion or Wo Prohibition." There seemea to be some doubt in trie minds of the members of the Legis laiure as 10 wneiner, or not, tne ma jority of the people of the State wanted prohibition. So to Bettle the matter they gave the people an op portunity to speak for themselves at the ballot box. and if they there de clare that they wish prohibition, then they have, given them by their rep resentatives, a law by which their wish may be carried into effect. But, if on the other hand, a ma jonty or the voters say that they do not want prohibition, the bill will still be the law of the State: but a cording to the proviso in Sec tion 7 no person shall be presented or pun ished for any violation of the act. so we sec retly hope that none of the good people will allow them selves to be cheated out of their vote by these designing men who are seeking ti divert their attention from the real issue. As to thf hill itself, we can say. after a careful consideration of it ir all its provisions, that we shall be pleased with it. It is indeed a grand stride towards the removal of the monster evil whic h has so long curs-' el our fair land, and one that has al ready sent confusion and dismay in to tne ranks or the makers and sen ders of the 'fire water." The only hone of these men is that by the aid of their money, influenced over those whom they have degraded, and such tricks as the above-mentioned, that they will get the majority of the votes cast against prohibition and thus render the law imperative. Hut will the friends of prohibition allow themselves to be deprived of the fruits of the grand victory which they have already gained? We think not! In conclusion, we say, let every voter in the State who is a friend to his race and his God, go to the polls on tbe nrst Monday in August next, and vote Tor prohibition, and if the present bill should fail to secure the end desired, the next legislature will not dare to refuse to so amend it that it will.

JK) VOI R JOH HETTER THAN ANYBODY ELSE. W. G. McAdoo in Progressive Farm er. To the tyoys on Southern Farms: Kditor Poe has asked me to tell you what quality I think will help you most to meet success either as business men or farmers. That is what may be called a "tall" order because success does not depend up on any one quality; it depends upon a combination of qualities. If, how ever. I should limit my remarks to what I think is the most important factor in the success of an individu al, whether in farming or in any oth er calling, I would say this: The surest road to success for any boy is to do the work or the task allotted to him better than anybody ever did it before. No matter how humble the work or insignificant the task, do it better than anybody else ever did it, if that be possible. If you go at your work in this spirit you will get results The boy who has this kind of deter mination will do his work netter than the boy who hasn't it jnd who doesn't work in that spirit. The willing boy. the eager boy, the hust ling boy, whose mind and heart are in his work, will out-distance all the other kinds of boys, and sooner or later his employer will fix his eye on him and give him promotion when opportunity offers. I have very little confidence in the thing that people call "luck." Most "luck conies from what one does for himself. Every boy and every man creates largely his own oppor tunity. If you work hard enough and intelligently enough and show that you have ability and character, day night row. rode into that town one day last week and created a dis graceful disturbance inside the cor poration which led to his arrest and confinement in the calaboose. It seems that on Friday night a crowd of row dies and allies of Anthony ap plied powder in sufficient quantities to blow the calaboose into atoms Whether the above is exactly correct or not we are unable to sav. It is certain that a gross outrage and vi olation of the law was committed in the town in defiance of the authori ties The mayor, through fear of pri vate injury to himself or property. has tendered his resignation. We believe it is the duty of our citizens to stand by and protect Cherryville n the discharge of her duties. Win such open violations of the law be tolerated? Is there no remedy? We believe it is the duty of the Govern- r to look after this affair and send a sufficient force of military to en force and arrest all the guilty ones and have them dealt with properly. .We understand that the citizens are afraid to speak or act contrary to the wishes of the rowdies of that section. Whiskey is the foundation for it all and every honest man will admit it. Then how important for every good c itizen to rise up and aid in putting an end to that demon which causes so much violation of law in the land. For one, we are ex tremely anxious that order be main tained in Cherryville at all hazards. This is no small affair and should have proper consideration. (TO BE CONTINUED.

Take the case of a lawyer. As soon as he begins to show that he tries his cases as well or better than the other lawyers in the community, people who need the services of a lawyer will be attracted to him and the first thing he knows he has all the practice he can take care of. It is so in all walks of life. The boy or the man who proves his ability is sought after for the best positions and is given the best opportunities, because he creates them by his own ability and his own forte. Iearn to rely on yourself and do your task, as I said before, better than anybody else ever did it before you, and you will certainly get there on the farm or in business or in pro fessional life. I was brought up partly on a farm myself. Many times have I chopped wood, picked cotton, milked cows and washed dishes, and have done almost every kind of chore about a house and on a farm. This was made necessary because I was brought up in the wide path of deso lation which General Sherman lef behind him when he marched through Georgia in the Civil War. uut it is an experience of which 1 am proud, because it fitted me in a lar ger degree for the bigger tasks of lire than I would have been had not been compelled to shift for my- sen. This is a land of rare opportuni ty and the American boy has a ureal heritage of freedom and liberty and independence. What a glorious, thing n is to nave such a birthright and what a splendid chance every Ameri can ooy nas to make a career toe himself that will shed lustre an his country and prove himself worthy Oi the distinction of being an American citizen ! Fanners Should Deposit All He- '4-lpts In Hunks. The Progressive Farmer. It's not the only remedy needed, of course, but we have no doubt in the world of the wisdom of the ad vice just given by the Virginia State Farmers' I'nion namely, that "far mers should put themselves on the same footing as other business men" in dealing with anks. . The idea is that if farmers will deposit all the money they get and follow the busi ness man's rnle of paying all bills by neck, it will be easier for the farm ers to borrow money when needed as other business men do. In other words, banks, like other business houses, are disposed to lonk afior their acquaintances friends nut rnn u and customers, and the farmer needs to put himself in this class. If the average town business man kept his money at home or In his safe when ne nau a mtie surplus and never went to a bank except to borrow, he would stand mietv little borrowing at all. And if he lacked fiin help and had to Dav "time nri ces" or borrow from loan sharks, he would soon go into bankruptcy. t onsequentlv Mr. Town Hnsineaa Man puts every cent he gets in the bank, and though he mav never hnvo a balance worth mentioning, yet the oanK Knows him, appreciates hiB pa tronage, and helns him We heiiovo the Virginia I'nion is wise in urging iarmers to get on the same busi ness footing."
