itAWny

The quarantine measures adopted by
the city authorities and board of health
to protect our town from the yellow fever
pestilenee, will have that effect if thew
are rigidly enforced. Let it be remem
bered that there will be NC yellow fever
here If it is not introduced by persons or
packages from infected places 1t is the
duty, therefore. of every citizen to coop.
crate with the authorities in the enforce.
ment of the sanitary regulations. All
should interest themselves to protect the
community from a scourge, the terrors of
which none who have not paased through
1t can adequately realize With the dis
ease all around us, nothing but extreme
caution and vigilance will protect the
place. The person who for pecuniary |
gain or other selfish consideration. VIC
lates. or seeks to violate, the rules which |
have been adopted in this great public
emergency. should be regarded as a pub
lie enemy.

to the fernando Press the result of his
observations on his tour in the perform

the following:
We were entertained one night at the
stock farm of Mr.. Montgomery aud a more
interesting sight. than his herd OF Jersey
cattle, have not seen he has l20 thorough
bred Jersey cows, and is demonstrating the
fact that our State is as fine field for pro-
fitably raising fine stock, a any section of
our country. His grasses, stock, dairy, and
few hours intercourse with him, will am
ply repay the cost of visit TO him by any
progressive farmer. McComb City L found

remember it, and they will. The opDosers
OF the project expected nothing less than
fair play, but we were sadly disappointed.

to array the ignOrant,a and in many instances
hoh-taXpayInS negro against his neipbbor
we anticipated nothing pertaining to Radi-
caiism would be used by the railroad men
L learn from good sources that the nauners
were taken out of the Poorhouse near Pavo
mond and voted in favor of the subscrinrj9p
by those favoring it. Now, the ouestion
with me Is will the advocates of the roori
use the money after obtaining the two-tbirG
vote as they did, in other words, will those
very men that denounced the Radicals 81
most severe and bitter language for oaininn
their power and position by :he ignoranSS
negro vote, take advantage of the same eIe.
