Thinking you would be pleased to know
some of the improvements in Middle and
Eastern Wake county, | mention a few, as
follows: Mr.. Miley Chamblee and father
has a steam saw mill: Mr.. w. w. Pace
has a steam saw mill with a good griot
and -four mill; Mr.. w. II. Richardson
has a steam saw and grist, with also a
single machine attached. Mr.. A. I.
Mail has a steam saw mill. Mr.. K. ID.
Christman has steam saw mill, grist and
Single machine. Mrs. Nike Whitley has
steam saw mill. Mr. Wyatt carp, of
Earpsboro, has a steam saw mill ard
-four and grist mill. Besides these there
are also some water mills, and Ed. TODD,
and w. A. Rhodes, and Doc I. H. Avera
and w. Fl. Richardson are going to build
a first class water power mill immedi-
ately. Mr.. ". @. TODD has a steam saw
mill in J mile of my residence, with a
cotton seed crusher, etc. These enter
prising men can soon furnish the people
with building materials, such as house
lumb Der etc. There are also Mr.. j.. K.
Pearce and David 7. Lee mas a grist and
flour mill across Little river; and again
is Mr.. Iven Proctor and Nj. G. Moore
have their mill on Little river. All Of these
mills are within six miles Of the writer /;
and most of them have thousands Of the
best pitch pine lumber which could be con-
yerted in house building materials, but for
the lack of RAILROAD facilities. At present
they are almost a dead loss to their
owners. All are within a short distance
from the line Of the Seaboard and Raleigh
r. R., and fit were built it would bring
many millions Of feet of the best timbers
in market, and give many facilities and
advantages along through those parts Of
Wake county, that We now lack.
The farmers are in great spirit over the
present out look Tor the Road. and crops
also. Wheat very good more grain than
usual, and less cotton. The acreage of
cotton less by 10 per cent; every farmer
busy. Garden vegetables are plenty. As

Our Candidate.

In no gubernatorial race since the war hal
any candidate aroused more enthusiasm il
his party than has General William B. B ate
the Democratic nominee. His speech in
Knoxville last Saturday demonstrated biz
wonderful power az an orator and his ability
as thinker and statesman. For three hour
he held his audience in closest attention, and
the frequent hearty applause told that his
words went to the heads and hearts of his
hearers. 1t was a manly speech and clesr
exposition of the doctrines of the great
Democratic party OF Tennessee. 1t was in
striking contrast to the political speechs S
our people usually hear, as for instance in
the Heuk and Rule campaign. Old men
said that il reminded them of the great
speeches made before the war in the politi-
cal battles between the giants of the Wings
and Democrats, when men fought for prin-
ciples and not for spoils. Young men felt
themselves enthused with patriotic feel
ing of State pride; which the corruption
of modern politics has had tendency
to crush out and destroy. Men who
are now fighting the battles of the party
listened with admiration, drinking in the
great truths of Democracy, which never be-
Women who listened to the silver-tongued
orator felt proud Of their husbands, brothers
and sops who marched under the banner up
held by the eloquent and gallant General
Bate. The people of Knoxville were never
before more delighted with public speaker,
and even his political enemies did him the
honor of patient hearing, and there is no
doubt that in November next many honest
Republicans will go quietly TO the ballot
box and vote for the chivalric Bate.-Kn0r.

TIE TRIUMPH OFTuxTEIEPHoN,

1h = IhAOhEA OF THE TELEPH ONE
The success of the telephone has beer
marvellous. Its use and popularity increases
every day, and the time will soon come when
a telephone will be as essential to every
well regulated family as the sewing achine,
the clock or the cooking-stove. The time
has already arrived when a business man
without telephone is considered wanting in
enterprise. As a labor-saving machine the
telephone SURPRISES all other inve atoms, II
is to the business man what the reaper is to
the farmer, or the sewing I'm achine TO the
family. The system of telephoning is yet in
its infancy. Before the close of the present
century the whole civilized world will be
knit together by wires thick as spider webs.
The telephone will soon be as common in
the country as in the cities, and country
physicians will receive their calls by tele-
phone. Yesterday the APPEAL published
telegraphic reports of the meeting of the
telephone managers at Boston on Tuesday,
from which we learn there are about 10000
10 10000 subscribers in the United States.
In New York there are 1913 subscribers.

There is is a steady and continued growth

a Wonderful Recovery.
Boston Herald.


One week ago last Monday the Herald
chronicled the fact that little girl named
Ada Worden, twelve years old, had fallen
from a window in her residence, on fremont
street, 10 the ground, distance of sixty
feet, and that there was a slight chance Of
her ultimate recovery from her injuries. The
fact that the child could have sustained an
unbroken fall of sixty feet, striking at It's
completion on brick wall and not being
killed outright, was in itself marvellous, but
the rapid recovery If the little one and the
fact that in five days it was up and dressed
and as we'll as ever borders on the miracu-
lous. DR.. Perry, who attended the child,
says that perfect quiet and nature were the
agents that brought SO happy conclusion;
but the child's mother, who is a very
devout woman, clings firmly to the
belief that it was the hand OF God. A
reporter visited the scene of the accident yes
terday, and saw the child, who took him 10
the room from the window of which she fell,
and, with barely perceplible shudder, che
pointed to the sill upon which che stood
when she lost her footing. A glance down
is enough to make ones head swim, and how
the child could have had the courage 10 step
from the window sill to another three feet
away, "a she had done several times before
falling, is thing which no one but child
can explain
