turers in those cities were uusuccess-
full bidders for. and his work has
been such that his reputation has been
enhanced very highly. Among other
contracts he takes are those for put

Water Works, and his estimates are
not only low but the work is thor
oughly done. He also has q large
business i'm gas and steam fitting, and
other work of that kind. Architecture
nj work is n decided speciality, DO
matter what the design, end contracts
are solicited. Special castings of any
kind are made to order; plows, pillow
castings, threshers and horse powers
are made, and another specially is a
machine for tearing up refuse CT
garettes. The Gardner Vertical
Engine, made ut Carlisle, Pa, is also
sold.

counties of Durham, Granville, Per-

assure our readers that all orders
from near or afar, will be promptly
attended to. The Works have turn

seasons of the year it is very crowd
ed. It has a magnificent location
one of the very best in Durham, at
the northeast corr er of Main and
Mangum streets, and it is the central
point for trade of. large proper
tions. The adjacent counties furnish
their full quota of customers, and the
farmers of those sections have
long since ascertained the fact
that "Riggsbee's' is a CAPT
tai place at which to make their purs

sist of dry goods, groceries, provis-
ions, boots and shoes or any OF the
many lines represented in the house.
MIR. Riggsbee informs us that he finds
| a growing demand for the better
grades of goods-he says that farm
ers are learning that it is true economy
to pay q little more and get a vastly
better article, and he encourages that
feeling. Some jobbing trade is also
held by the house in the counties we
have named, but it com,s here of its
own accord. However, a country
merchant can rely upon having his
order promptly filled. From this
house. too, have graduated number
of successful business men, and the
present clerk of the Superior Court,
Mr.. j. w. Christian, was a former

when he removed his bu -iness to
Durham, in 1879, he changed from
.splug" to sgranulated' and '!ong
clt., smoking tobacco, and 1t is as
manufacturers of the latter grades
that E. Ell. Pogue & Son are known
to the trade.
The special brand the one upon
which the firm most prides ltseif-ls
aSitting Bull'-a granulated tobacco
made from the choicest material. and
a Grade of goods which dealers pro-
fitabIy handle because of the con-
stant demand for it on the part OF
those who appreciate thoroughly
GOOD smoke. In "long cut" the lead
inp brands are "Original Durham,
Nos. I and O. These various gra les
of smoking tobacco are rapidly gain
ING a reputation extensive as the
whole country. Nor is it any won,
der. One of the most efficient ana
thoroughly practical of tobacco man
ufacturers in the country, MIR A. y:
Cameron, has charge of thesniaE.
ufacturing department., and neither
he nor the Messrs. Pogue would be
satisfied with anything short of per
lection in all that appertains to the
trade. In smoking tobacco made by
E. H. Pogue & Son the consumer
will especially notice the aroma. IL
is an "open secret" that all tobacco
must be favored to render it accep-
table to the masses, and this firm use
certain ingredients, after formula
known only to them, which imparts

The factory looks to the whole
country for its trade, and in order to
cultivate acquaintance and develop
business two Of Mr.. E. Ell. Pogue's
sons, W. j. and Chas. J. Pogue
travel large part of the time, the
latter gentleman chiefly paying his
attention to the dealers throughout
this State.
We can most heartily commend the
business sagacity and prudence dis
played by the firm. They don't do
an indiscriminate business, and if a
merchant is ON their books tits pretty
certain that he is good pay. The
house has been turning down" or
ders from houses of questionable
standing for some time, and the result
is that the per cent. of losses is very
srnall-in fact at least fifty per cent.
of all the customers of the house dis
count their own bills /; in other words
a most desirable class of trade IS held,
and we were not at all surprised to
hear Mr.. Pogue say that collections
were very fair-who wouldn't say SO
uader such circumstances?
Referring again to the territory in
which the house does business we may
say that it deals with jobbers only
Except here in North Carolina) and
it sells to joboers in every State in

WILKINSON, CHRISTIANS co.

1t is now about one year since the
above named firm established a plan
ing mill and sash, door, blind and
moulding factory in Durham, build.
ing the necessary shops and fully
equipping them with the newest and
best improved machinery. Since the
firm began operations they have been
kept as busy as can be; twenty OF
more skilled workmen are required
in the factory, and the co-partners
also give the business the closest oil
personal attention. These co.part.
ne Q are J. l.. Wilkerson, w. A. vii.
kerson, De Witt Mangum, j. b.
Christian and T. s. Christian. ALL
are young men, natives of this vici-
nifty, and practical mechanics. How
practical they are their successful
business attests
Wilkerson, Christian d Co, are
lumber dealers and contractors and
builders as we'll as manufacturers.
They carry nearly or quite a million
of feet of rough and dressed lumber
in stock. and this they are Offering to
our farmers and builders at most fav.
orable rates. Most if not all this
stock is yellow pine, supplied by mills
in Richmond and Moore counties.
The demand for both manufactured
material and lumber is almost wholly
local, though occasionally carload
lots are shipped to other points. A
very considerable quantity is also
required by the firm in their own
building operations, as can we'll be
imagined from the fact that during
the past twelve months Wilkerson,
Christian & Co., have erected not
less than Fifty or sixty buildings, CON-
prising leaf houses, factories and re.
sidences. At this writing they have
ON hand contracts for five residences,
and as a result of their building OPP
erations they employ twenty-five or
more skilled workmen in that de.
partment OF their business.
As regards the work of the firm,
either as manufacturers or as con-
