Do our Taxpayers wish the stock
law repealed? They have been
taxed, within the stock-law terrific
ry, to build a county fence; to re-
peal this law, and for one township
then to take it and its neighbor re-
ject it, those people must submit to
the additional tax of building a
township fence. Will our people
vote for men to put this labor and
expense upon themselves? Be care>
full how you vote, or you may be
not only heavily taxed, or be sub
jected to the old fence question
again.
The dry weather now, which was
predicted by the CITIZEN last Spring,
almost amounts to a drouth, and
delays the preparations of our farm
ers for their fall sowing. Put in all
the grain possible; that is, make
your land, even a few acres, rich,
and SOW and cultivate them SO as to
raise more than may be needed for
home use by the least amount of
land. This is the way to get rich on
farmipg.
A number of our citizens were
anxious to get reports from "tEe
front" at Black Mountain, some ex-
pressing fear of disturbance. At
this writing, no EVIL reports have
been received. Our Buncombe peos
pie do not permit disturbances at
their public meetings, and whoever
attempts to bring anything of the
sort about, by word or speech, will
receive as he will deserve the exc
Grafton of all good citizens.
Many friends in Ivy and Yancey
say the reports about Malone car
rying those sections are insults to
those people, which they will resent
in November. Tom Johnston will
sweep those sections.
