Springs, to build railroad from
the Knoxville Southern through
Maryviile to Montvaie, and q

Short talks were made by DR.. P. M.

select and arrrnye them will take
the speaker at least two or three
weeks.
Representatives Rowell, Of ILL.,
nois and Peters, Of Kansas, have
gone to Louisiana to take part in
the campaign now going on in the
third district of that State to elect
a successor to the late Representa-
tive Gay. They will remain until
the election takes place, and will
doubtless obtain some information
that will be useful to them when
some of the Southern contested
election cases are under considera-
ton by the House.

The people Of the bleak North

town, not your town, for we sever.

share the dividend ought to make
US quite cautious as to what we say

Three travellers passing along a

traveller in turn heaving a sigh said
"he is dead! poor fellow!' When

hedge to see what would happen,
arose and spake thus to himself

The Training school.

We call attention to the timely
article On the first page Of this issue,
touching the question OF giving that
school to Eastern Carolina, and to
Scotland Neck.
At present writing the matter has
not been definitely settled by the
Legislature; but in the event the bill
becomes law, we urge upon the
people of Scotland Neck and com
munjty not to be slow in deciding to
ask for the school. An amendment
has been Offered, and lost, to locate
the school at central point in the
State; Namely, Chapel Hill. The
school will not be located at Chapel
Hill; and "Numa's' article on our
first page puts a very impartial
view and argument for ScotlandNeck
as an ideal site" for the school.
The advantages to the town and
community would be Of incalculable
value.
Why not ask for It? ne are ask
ing for 1t, Why not have it? That
is not for US to say. What say our
citizens?
