Yes. We notice that Chase is
billed for different parts of the State,

be that he thinks there are not enough

to spout here? We understand that
the editor of the Press is very much
incensed by this slight. Let him go.

Judging from the terrible racket
Bob White is keeping up in his
LEDGER about water-works, some one
must be going to start a laundry at

perience? Did you never wake up in

MexicO's Enterprise.

An effort is being made to organ
ize a joint stock tobacco manufacture
ing company in Mexico, Nc. The
capital is to be s2O $1,000, a large part
of which has been already subscribed
by the moneyed men of the place.
c. II. Lacy & Son, of Wentzville, are
the %originators and prime movers of
this scheme. There is a vast deal of
enterprise In our neighboring city,
and signs of prosperity are every
where apparent. Mexico has awak-
ened to the fact that manufactures
are worth infinitely more to a town
than a railroad division.
