Pat Bell and w. B. Kelly have COM
menced work on new ice~house for the
Mountain Brewery. 1t will be the
largest this side of the Truckee, and is
to have double walls packed with saw
dust, and all the modern improvements
for keeping ice through the hot season.
1t will take several carloads of saw
dust, and this indispensable article.
which has to be brought here from
Truekee, costs $50 per load, making it
rather expensive to build ice-houses
George Berger, manager at the Brew
cry. informs US that they will have a
storage capacity of over 600 tons in the
old and new e-houses, and both will be
filed this winter if ice can be procured
from the river. This will be sufficient
to supply the town daring the hot
weather so that ice win not have to be
brought here by rail next Summer as
has been the case heretofore.

Town Ordinances.

We publish in this issue the Ordinances Of
the Town of Walhalla for tho present year. II
would be wcll for all citizens Of the town 10 pre-.
serve copy Of them for reference, as it might
savc them trouble, not TO say possible expense.
Every person should know the local laws Of the
town in which he lives and strive to observe
them. The Ordinances arc strict in the re-
quiremcnt of good behaviour and the observance
Of good order. This is right, as no one con be
injured, but oil will BIO benefited by the preserva
tion Of order in The town. We have had in the
past as orderly citizenship as any town of the
size of Walhala in this Or any State. Though
liquor is sold, drunkenness is uncommon, and
whenever it appears and becomes at all bolster
GUS it is checked by the arrest of the offender.
Our people arc strongly interested in preserving
the Same good report we rs town have hereto
fore enjoyed. We have two young institutions
Of learning in the town and nothing could 80
seriously injure thcm as bad order We desire
to cultivate and encourage their growth, AMI to
this ell let oil good citizens read the Ordinances
and aid in their enforcement at oil times by
their moral influence. and when necessary by
rendering physical aid to tho town officers.

Distilleries.

Thore arc now in tho county several H..
,ccnsed government distillcrics, in successful
operation. DR.. B. S. james, we believe, first
broke the ice, and as people began to see a
lawful business may bo run at reasonable
exponsc, others arc making the venture. We
believe this is the most offectual way to break
down the blockade business. rs whom people
can get lawful whiskey and better whiskey at

will bug 1t, and thus drive out the moonshin.
ers. In fact, any man had rather pay more
for an article made by known citizen, under
favorable circumstances, than to buy from one
unknown, and often bad whiskey While we
are not ia favor Of liquor making or liquor
dealing, yet if we must havo it, We prefer to
.havo lawful distillories. The effect Of those
dstillerics will be to raiso tho price OF corn to
the Western standard. We feel sure that
corn III this county will advance
before summer to tho prico at which it can
.be shipped from .other markets, and that it
,will'bo necessary for our county to got corn

No Fun,

Throwing rocks at night at person may bo
fun to tho one doing the act but even TO him
it is dangerous fun. 1t certainly is no fun
to the party who hears these missiles singing in
tho dark, when he cannot tell whence they come
nor whittier they go. a rock is dangerous
article hurled from the hands of boy even,
and persons throwing them to frghten others,
should the rock strike and kill another, though
not intended, The crimo would be murder. a
case Of throwing rocks ut night in our town was
up before the Town Council last Saturday morn
ing 1t was shown the throwing occurred out
sdo the town limits, but led to some subsequent
disturbano, in town. No harm was intended to
any one, is conceded by all, but such practices
are dangerous and should not occur again.
Evon though rocks are thrown wide Of the
mark, with Il view to frighten others, they
might strike some innocent person passing
unknown and cause death or serious injury.
We mention the matter merely to point out the
great risk persons, indulging in such jim, run.

Well. The work of the farm is advancing u
little since the few good days have SC, in. Wheat,
as far rs know, is not injured by The cold
weather. Oats are hurt, but not rs much as I
expected.
Fertilizers arc not being hauled from the
depot to the farm as fast they were this time last
year. There is no chance for the farmer to
make anything and give the prices asked for
them. Therefore, unless they fall in price, l
suppose they will sell but few tons.
Martins Creek l. o. G. 7. is still initiating
members into her order, while somc few are
breaking their obligations; but if the last man
was to go to drinking whiskcy again, that makes
the temperance cause no less important and
valuable, and why more leading citizens do not
take an actvc part in the cause, it is hard for
us to understand, unless il is that the big side is
opposite to temperance.
I SEQ, Messrs. Editors in the locals that q
number Of lawless persons, whose names are
known, visited the house Of John Dean, in tho
upper part of the town, in brutal, lawless
manner. will venture tho assertion that they
were impeled by whiskcy furnished from q

Merchant Mill.

ur people, i! seems, have not tho capital

one might put in operation first class NOR

here, but they do not profess to make the
best -four. With tho building. motive and
water power it would not cost great deal to
put to running first class mill, which, we
believe, would pay 1t IS true, no great
amount Of wheat is made in this immediate
neighborhood, yct with good mill accessible
to town great deal of North Carolina wheat
would be bought in this market and ground
up. Wheat now, except for seed, has very
little sale here, because Of the remotencss Of
good mills. AS q consequence -four is
brought and sold instead Of wheat, which is
often not good Our merchants by turning
this trado into wheat would be able to war
rant the -four made from it, and the mill, the
merchant and the pconle would all DO benee
fited. While VIC believe this would surely
result, yet tho result could only como from
the establishment Of first class mill. No
doubtful or second hand contrivanoc would
OBJECT tho object, which is u better -four than
we usually buy from tho wagons. Besides.
the wheat brought from North Cnrolina n
good mill here would stimulate tho produce
tion of wheat around Walhalla. 1t is worth
