The WaynesviIle NeacS says: Mr..
George II. Smathers will not remove
to Knoxville until the fall, if then.
We hope George will be induced to
remain where he is, for he is an es-
pecial favorite of ours; and then
Waynesville has the growing bright
future to expand with the construc-
tion of the cu railroad; and with
the solid foundation he has laid
George will advance with his city.
Murphy clamOrS for butter and

DR.. Kemp p Battle has accepted
the invitation to deliver AN addie iess
on tre organization of the Supreme
Court and its history. DR.. Battle is
as competent as any one that could
have bee1 selected. He WAS a law
vrr himself, and was also the son If
judge Battle. and associate Justice
of the Supreme Court. He is there
tore familiar with everything CON
corning the court. and we may 10 k
rom him for one OF those learned,
pleasant. anecdotical addresses pc
culiar to his Vie. and which have
made such great demand on his
peculiar gifts.
Tie mention Of Capt NJ E. Car
ter for position on the Supreme
Court bench is in accordance with
the eternal fitness of things. We
say unhesitatingly that no man can
be mentioned who possesses more
thoroughly the elements and quail
tications for such a position. In
deed he has few equals in North
Carolina for q position upon the ST.
preme Court bench. We say this
not only in respect of him as q
fellow townsman, out as recOgni-
ton of his splendid fitness for the
position. which we believe his
brethren ofthe bar generally recog-
niZa.
We replace the ''ad" of the Racket
Store, which has been running Ions

We hope our readers look carefully
through our advertising columns, as
there is the place to learn where to
buy goods. Ii they do they cannot
fail to notice the Cool Weather
Onset yations'; of Mr. Jones. They
are ccol like the weather and sharp
As the wind. Somebody has eYi-
IDENTIFY been talking about the
'Kacket man. or his goods. Mr..
Jones is liberal advertiser and de-
serves the patronage OF he people
which he seems TO receive. Do not
fail to read il.
The Waynesville Military Com
pany has done a proper and grace
full thing in electing ex-Judge j. c.
L. Gudger as Captain; and the Judge
has done an equally graceful and
proper act in accepting. When gen
tlemen of high position social and
profes ional, and possibly somewhat
advanced in years associate them
selves with the pursuits, interests and
feeling of young men, they inspire 4
! strenfh of animation and encourage
ment of which they are scarcely
aware and in making such selec-
tiOn as that of Judge Gudger the
young men dignity themselv and
give assurance Of an earnest and lofty
purpose. We ,Ommend the exam
pie Of this company to others.
