Coinlt'ff' Win minority Of Ine DeO-
pie Of l';s ''rr;on of the State we render
to GcV 81 i.: sincere thanks for his ac-

! W. s. Chadwick has been elected Presi-
dent. 4 successful business man and a

/ his administration a success. ful one. Gov

when he made a distinguished citizen Of
| tEls cry the State proxy, and appointed
| the directors, en- the part OF tho State
| from the cou..tleS contiguous to the road.
| Ih4 appointment OF Mr.. Manly as proxy,
aaG those gentlemen as directors will give
many friends to Governor Fowle. The

Secretary and Treasurer, and the election
OF Mr. Clark, as Attorney gives universal
satisfaction and reflects great credit upon

sfacfory to all concerned. In word, a
folifcation is in order. Not to triumph
over the defeated, but to rejoice over the
pros; .ects that spread out before US.
The Goldsboro Argus says: Al length
the all absorbing question, that for months
has been perpeXing the people of Eastern
NOrtn Carolina. and given much concern
to he ''inte,csted" III other sections of
the State, as to who is to be President of
the Atlantic and Nor h Carolina Railroad,
has been settled. and settled just as the
Argus always maintained that it would
be, on the right side-the side of the peo-
pie. How could it be otherwise with
| Daniel & Fovle at the helm of the States
destinies, who in this matter, as on all
other occasions when the snprema hour Of
decision arrived, has proved himself a
man oF the people and FOR the people,
vi b the wisdom of q statesman the hero
| ism Of q patriot, and that parity of pur-
pose that can alone in the end triumph
and bring all elements of the people to-
| gether n sympathetic unison to recognize
their mutual-common dependence, and,
that they have a leader tried and true
! who will hot fail them ever; who when
| ciastiLg Interests arise, bringing confusion
a,d estran cement in their ranks, can stand
/ in the midst Of the food and speak to the
! storm and do the right Where now are
| his maliynerS aid captious critics who
| talked of Jobs" and deals" .'pledses"
aud "iudnences'' in the matter Of the At
! lantic and North Carolina Railroad? Look
! at the make up of the new administration
of this road and say, if you dare, that
there is anything "crooked" about it.
! The new President, Mr.. W. S. Chadwick,
! is too well known as a representative citi
zen of Eastern North Carolina, and as a
self made, affiuent business man of Beau
! fort, to need any words of commendation
| from Us. He is IL years Of age; the
| pride Of his people, true to every duty in
| life; faithful to every trust; open as the
noon-tida of cloudess day. and courte-
ously considerate of the wishes and even
the most delicate sensibllities of others.
/ From one end of the line 70 the other the
| people will be quick to centre upon him,
and his administration wi be successful.
| We hail the new 1egim" with hopeful
LESS and tender it oar most cordial and
active support for the good of the people
- for the development of the inexhausti-
| ble and countless resources, the increment
of traffic, and the vigorous prosperity of
| Eastern North Carolina.
| Again we say. Hurrah for Hon. Dan1
| G. Fowle, the Peoples Governor This
| is the joyful resOund on every hand from
these people, whom he has ever loved and
| served so well.
The Goldshoro Mercury says: A mere
| glance AT the names of the new Directory
| will show that the State and private
| stockholders are represented by business
men of frst-class ability; and ii is an evi
dcnce of iovernOr Fowe's superior exec
| ;i,iye ability to have made such wise and
| pTule> selection. The counties on the
| liz; a. h road are well represented, in
tn selection of the Directory, and no
| doubt will meet the highest anticipations
Of our citizens generally
Tle new PRECEDENT. Mr. y. s. Chad
/ wick has been chosen ueca5.Se of his spicn-
did business qualifications, a8d there is
no doubt but he viii prove TO be the right
man in the right place. As for his ac-
| qualnta0ca with the condition OF the road,
and the best plan to be adopted for its
f! future management, he and the Board of
| Directors must be the judges. 1t is now
| in their hands, and while their manage
ment will be closely observed by the peo-
| pie. a iudicious management will be most
checrfully supported.
