SANTA CLAUS.

rs said good old Saint Nicholas
o. late conceived the notion
o. trying to economic
His powers of locomotion
Instead of trotting round the world
To find ont our desires.
He now employs telephone
With multitudes Of wires,
From far and near come messages
And eager voices mingle:
"dsllo, hello, dear Santa Clans!
Hello. hello, Kris Kringler'
To which the dear old Saint replies,
In answer to the queries:
Hello, my boys, hello. my girls,
Hello, Hello, my dearies !"
II want doll! r. one voice ezclaims,
'l'd like sled r. another;
And vt another one requests
"A present for dear mother"
Thus DER the wires with lightning speed
The orders come a-winging,
And one il scarcely through before
: Another one il ringing.

A BIG ENTERPRISE.
THE WALKER MILL SOLD
And viii Probably Be Used for
Manufacturing Purposes

Street.
Messrs. Tate and Hi Hackney,
and John Mckenzie bought the
Touring mill known as the Walker
mill but lately owned by Henry
Catlett.
In conversation with Mess. Hack
ney and Mckenzie we learn they
are not able to answer definitely as
to what uses the water power will
be appropriated. 1t is not likely
that it will be continued as a -four
ing mill. The capacity of the wa
ter power is to be tested in order
that they may determine what ma
chinery it will be applied to. The
TIMES understands it will be ap-
piled to machin cry that will more
largely advance the interests of
Maryville. A business that has
more money in 1t than in the man
ufacture Of flour. The building will
probably be moved either up or
down stream so that Main street
can be located straight across Pts.
tol creek which will give entrance
to the building from the bridge, in
to the second story. There Is no
question but this power can be
made very profitable for water
works, the manufacture Of electrici-
ty, or for furniture and chair
factory. The probability is there
will be a large stock company
formed embracing some one or
more Of the business named herein.

Nine wears AGO We made Hi

Nine years ago We made Hills
boro our home. Gu The oh day OF
October, 1880, we commenced the
publication OF the ORANGE COUNTY
OBSERVER. For nearly three years
previous 10 our removal to this
place, We published the Weekly
Ledyer at Chapel Hill. Now, when
we look back and think of what a
hard time We Lave bad in raising
money TO pay expenses, We often
wonder how we have managed TO
keep III little sheet alive. We
have not made a dollar, and while
we have been patronlzed literally
by some Of the best citizens and
business men Of this and adjoining
Counties, yet there are other good
men in Orange County who have
no. pa,ronzcd Us even TO the extent
Of taking the paper.
We return thanks to those who
nave pa,ronizcd us, and hope to
deserve a continuance OF the same.
In 1887 We were forced to reduce
the subscription price Of the OBsER,
YER to $l.UO per year, SO as to make
it the same price OF the new paper
then published here by two prom
inent politicians. We reduced the
price reluctantly because We knew
there was no money in the paper
even at Sl.50 per annum.
We do not claim to publish the
best paper in the State, but we do
CLAIM that we publish a reliable
County paper, giving the State and
County news. We never publish
ANYTHING in our. columns that will
iniure the innocent. We abuse no
one because they differ with Us.
We advocate the election Of Demo.
Gratis 10 Office because we believe
the country is safest III their hands.
Sometimes i. has been a very bitter
pill to swallow the names OF some
Of the men who were on the tickc,
but we have always voted i,
straight"
In the beginning of tire Tenth
Year Of publication of this paper q,
HilIsboro We would be glad if every
person in the County, that can at
told to do so, wonld take the paper
and thereby help us to make it 6
better ne wspaper. And we wouiC
rejoice and be exceeding glad il
those who W tus for subscriptloT
and advertising, would either send
the money or call and pay what they
owe Us. We need money to pay
Office rent, paper bills. &c.
We put cross marks, this week
on the paper of subscribers who are
due for subscription, and we cal
upon each and every one of them tc
come up, like honest men ant settle
and let us have what belongs to us
SO that we can pay our debts.
Look out for the cross marks!
