Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1889-01-10

The BARTON COUNTY DEMOCRAT is
a newspaper which in nearly every
issue has something complimentary to
say about Ness City. The DEMOCRAT
is one of the best papers that comes to
this Office, and it knows a good town
when it sees it.-Ness City Seminal
THANKS, awfully. We do "know a
good town when we see it'' and we also
know it by the newspapers it's busi-
ness men support. Ness has adopted
the right plan to bring herself into
prominence, and we never neglect to
give credit to whom credit is due.
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1889-01-10

THE Courier Journal calls the atten-
tion of the republican papers that are
lamenting the fact that the negro OF
the south will not burn and shoot, and
make the rivers run red with blood, to
the condition of things in Clairmont
county, Ohio, where 400 negro child
rem have been turned from the public
schools by whites, their houses stoned
their doors and windows broken in.
> 1t is high time something is being done
for the protection of the rights of the
poor negro of Ohio.

Work of the Floods.

People are just beginning to realize
the terrible work of the rains which
fell week before last. All along the C.
F. & Wv. r. R. the damage was very
great and it estimated that it will
cost $500 to repair that road
alone.
We learn from the Danbury Report
ser that the water on Tom Creek rose
two feet above the bridge, which is
twenty-five feet. The bridge across
Little Yadkin near Dalton was wash
led so as to render it impossible; and
the bridges on Town Fork at German
ton and Walnut Cove were badly
wrecked. 1t is expected that the road
from Walnut Cove to Mt. Airy will
be reopened to travel in the course of
thirty days; meantime hacks will run
from Rural Hall to Mt. Airy, making
connection at Rural Hall with the
WilkesbOro extension for WinstOn-Sa-
lem.
The Madison Leader says: The
county bridges in Rockingham were
not damaged to a great extent; the
trestle approaches to the bridge at
Madison and Settles bridge, were
torn away They are being rebuilt
this week. Below the mouth of Mayo
river the turbulent stream became a
raging seao waters; Danbury bridge
was lifted and carried a distance from
its site.
AT MOrehead &Co IS mills at Lea ks
Vile, the back-water from Smith and
Dan Rivers flooded thelower story of
the wooden mills, damaging that firm
to the extent of $4,000.
The total damage to the crops and
property along the rivers in Rocking
ham county may be estimated at
about $4,000.
Mt. Airy had no mail for over 9
week. Concerning the damage te
crops and to the C.F.e& Wv. R. R
the News of Mt. Airy says: Over
the tobacco crop the farmers, those
| to whom we have talked, are very
FdespOndent. The tobacco, from what
we can gather, is growing too rapid
", and is developing into stalk anl
stem too fast, making the leaf very
narrow and thick. There can, al
vet, befno estimate made Of the losl
tsustained in the tobacco crop.

SUNDAY SERVICES.
A Resume of the Religious Exercises
Last Sabbath.


Last Sunday morning Rev w. C.
Norman preached at Centenary
church on the subject of Repentance,
taking his text from the 18th verse
OF the 51st Psalm: Restore unto me
the JOY of thy salvation"
Always effective in his preaching,
Mr.. Norman was especially SO in de-
livering this sermon, saying among
other things that it was only the
man who could feel remorse for an
evil deed who lad ever felt, or would
ever feel, the work of the Holy Spirit:
There is hope for the repentant man,
but absolutely none for him who, in
his daily walks, goeth about SHINING
and feeleth not the prickings of con-
science.
The MOravian church having invit-
ed the Centenary church to unite
with them in worshipping on Sunday
night, the invitation was accepted.
The Moravian love-feast was held
Sunday afternoon, when the regula-
ton coffee and cake were partaken of
in that Christian spirit of fraterniza-
ton for which this denomination is
noted.
Sunday night Rev. Mr.. Swain,
preached an interesting sermon at
the Protestant church from the text:
"For the kingdom of God is not meat
and drink; but righteousness and joy
in the Holy Ghost. Romans 14:17.
There were no services at the Pres
byterian church; the pastor Rev. E.
P. Davis, is taking a 4 weeks vaca-
ton.
= AT the First Baptist church Rev. j.
G. Stowell occupied the pulpit and
preached two highly interesting SER
mons.
At the Y NJ c. A. meeting Sunday
afternoon, Rev. DR.. Sanderlin. State
Auditor, delivered a most entertain
ing and enjoyable address. Said Mr..
Sanderlin: ''Do all thegood you can,
to all the people you can, in all the
ways you can, as long as ever you
can
How many among us are there
who do that?

BALL TO THE BAT.
Some Baseball Notes, Past, Present and
Prospective

0O%~A~
Prospective.
We had no match games of ball
in Winston last week, and at this
writing it does, not appear that we
are to have any this week But we
are just a-hungering and a-thirsting
for some club to come over and be
devoured by our crack nine. Mama
ger Craw ford has issued the following
challenge to the clubs of the State:
''There are several base ball clubs
in the State claiming the champion
ship. Our club is yet in it's infancy,
but we are willing and ready to cross
bats with any town in the State that
is justly entitled to the champion
ship, who will play strictly North
Carolina men, and not go out of the
State to strengthen their team. We
will play three games, one on our
grounds, one on grounds of club ac-
cepting challenge, the other on neu-
trail grounds, orwe will pay the clubs
expenses if they come to our city for
three games; or will go to the grounds
of the club accepting the challenge if
they guarantee our expenses.

Manager Winston Base Ball team"
The Charlotte Chronicle of Tuesday
having contained an item to the eff
feet that Charlotte was ready to play
Winston, Manager Crawford sent the
following reply:
81 see in your issue of this date that
the Charlotte Baseball Association
had accepted our challenge and we
wanted to wriggle out of it.
Gas yet we have received no accept
an-e to our challenge from the Char
lotte baseball club and l want you
and your team to distinctly under
stand that we are not of the wrig-
Cling kind We will give you one
hundred and fifty dollars for three
games in Winston, or will go to Char
lotte with a guarantee of same
amount. Now let your manager ac-
cept our challenge if Charlotte wants
to play ball

THE MocKsvILLE ROAD.
The R. & D. Make Propositions to til
Davie Commissioners.


We take from the Mocksville Times,
of the 9th instant, the following in
teresting piece of news concerning the
completion of the railroad from Win
ston to Mocksville. The r. & d. road
has made the following propositions
to the Board of County Commission
erS:
1. That the commissioners issue
the $40, 900 of bonds, place them in
the hands Of a trustee, who is to be
a responsible banker or bank, to be
selected by the commissioners. The
bonds to be held by the trustee under
contract entered with and signed
by Col A B. Andrews and the COM
missioners, and to the effect that if
the railroad is completed and the cars
running into Mocksville, from either
direction within eighteen months,
then the trustee is to deliver the
whole amount of the bonds to Col.
Andrews for railroad and the bonds to
be on interest only from time they
are received by railroad If the road
is not completed and running into
Mocksville within eighteen. months,
then the trustee is to deliver back the
bonds to the commissioners to be
cancelled.
2. The bonds to be delivered to a
trustee in same way as in LIST prOpO-
sition and $4,000 of these to be de-
livered by the trustee to the railroad
when the cars are running into Mocks-
vile, and the other $40, 900 when the
cars are running to the river on the
other side of the county, but no time
to be fixed within which this is to be
done
3. The same as the second, only
the trustee is to deliver to the rail
road $3, 900 of bonds as each mile OF
road in the county is completed and
cars running on it, until the $40, 900
is exhausted, but no time limited in
which this is to be done.
The commissioners have until the
18th day of August to give Col. An
drews an answer upon these PROPOSE,
tiOns.

SOMETHING. ABOUT SHOES

Do you know what a hand made
shoe. ISL Not a shye made all over
by hand sewing; that whould be very
clumsy, the uppers are cut by meas
ure of the foot in size, and stitched
by machiQe, the soles are cut and
the two put together by skilled
shoemaker, or bench, with awl and
waxed end. Such work is expen-
sive, and is only done nowadays on
the best material. Much machine
work that looks like hand work is
said to be hand work. That, of
course, is false. Sometimes machine
work is said to be as good as hand
work. IF that is so, why is it that
: machine work is never used except
t, on poor material and band work is
only put on good material : Our
shoes are priced according to leather
and good hand work. We handle
