Raleigh, N. C, May 11. A bank president here remarked today that he could say positively there was more money in this coflnty than ever before in its history. He says the panic Is almost entirely a matter of sentiment now, being simply in evi lence of this trust. State Auditor Dixon returned last night at midnight from a speaking trip. He delivered the address Sat urday before the Confederate veterans of Sampson county at Clinton, the at tendance being ' very large and thf iinner so bountiful that after tin ?reat crowd had been served fully, an imple supply remained which was aent to the county home. He spoke yesterday at Warsaw, on the prohibi tion question. He thinks things are all right on that question in both Sampson and Duplin. The banks, the canltol, etc., were closed today, it being Memorial Day. The religious exercises were held yes terday afternoon at the Confederate cemetery. Tbe day was pet feet and the attendance was very large. The graves were very beautifully decorat ed with flowers and Confederate flags. This morning the base of the Bagley statue in the capltol square was drap ed in a great national flag, the gfft of many officers and sailors last year. It Is understood that a new hotel is to be built here to face on the cap ltol square, and that It will be a very handsome structure, The Carolina Woodworkers are the first to build an industrial plant at Gfenwood, one of Raleigh's suburbs and some of the effects will be very novel. The pillars are trunks of Immense hickory trees, cnt from ttu site of the building. Governor Glenn consents to nn ex change of courts by which Judge Webb will hold Cleveland court, bezinnin? June 16th and Judge Moore Guilford court, beginning on the same day, each term being for a week. The term of Cleveland court Is a special one and Judge Moore had been assigned to hold it, but as It is the first court to be held In the new court house the exchange Is made In orderthut Judge Webb., who Is from that dis trict. Shall, so to speak, christen the very handsome new building. Members of the Confederate drum corps here, sre the only one in the State or the 8outh for that matter, ire arranging lo go to the great re union at Birmingham, Ala., W'Jnne Funds Will have to be privately rais ed to take this organization there. II has furnished music at six of tbe re unions, and one of Its members said with a smllr that It hoped he would be able to attend If more. There' is very great activity, this week at the headquarters of the va rious cand la tea for . the nomination for governor, and things are humming af,8ute prohibition headquarUn'. This week there will be more speak trs In the Held than ever before -at one time and next weeek Ihere will be a regular whirlwind , of oratory sod argument all over the tntv There will be at toast twenty speakers from etch eoanty and these will cover every township,' The preachers and ,scho51 teacher are a powerful force for pro hibition. On tbe Other side there are very ftw speakers,' but one' of these Is Hon.
