We like TO see such paragraphs as
the above going the rounds fthe press.
They do this section world of good
and nothing will do so much to adver-
hse the advantages Of the great South
west. We like to see the little towns
surrounding US grow for every addition
to their population not only helps
them, but helps Roanoke as vol. inns
city is fast becoming the centre OF q
cluster of enterprising towns, tbs
like of which can DO found nowhere
else. Our wholesale business is favor
aoly affected by these smaller places
and the time will soon come when
Roanoke will be the great wholesale
centre OF the Southwest.

..wEARIN' OF THE GREEN

Erin's patron saint has admirers in
the senate as well as in the humblest
cot and on St. Patrlck's day Aessrs.
Mitchell. Blair, Allison, Sherman, L.
gals and Reagan appeared on the
floor with q sprig OF shamrock in the
button-hole of his coat. Now, but one
Of these gentlemen is an Irishman and
the question as to the reason OF this
"wear:n' of the green" With the
single exception of Reagan, all of the
gentlemen has presidential bee in his
bonnet and they will hardly dsny that
it was more for the sake OF the Irish
vote than respect for the snake hating
saint, that made them make the display.
The .shhoys" will be pleased.

TEE EXCISE BOARD.

The excise boards now being appoint
ed by the governor, have great dea!
OF power conferred on them. They
can practically enforce prohibition
whereit has been defeated by ma jority
OF the voters. In the hands of reckless
or unthinking men great deaI
of harm can be done and as
it is the past will be thankless
one. 1t will hardly be success, and
tits doubtful if it IS constitutional
Every law that takes powers from the
people to put them in the hands of g
few man is contrary to the spirit o.
republican institutions.

MISS MABEL JENSEss, who has beer

she preachas and will at an early Gay

horse, just as man would ride. We
like 10 see woman with the courage
Of her convictions, but would respect
fully advise Miss Mabel to give some
time to practice, or the sensation she is

even she expects.

MOCLiE LAMBERT.

Mr.. j. +. Dyer of West Salisbury is the
owner of Mollie Lambert. one of the finest
bred daughters of the old hero of Cream
Hill. She is four years old, stands nearly
- hands, light chestnut, silver name and
tail, and promises to be very fast. If there
81 such a thing as fashionable bred mare
in Vermont, she is one. She was sired
by Daniel Lambert (3G in 80 list) :;
dam, Belle STANDARD registered), by
Ethan Allen, second dam. Nell, by Ver-
mont Black Hawk; third dam by Duroc
Messenger, son of Duroc by Imported
Diomed. Dam of Duroc Messenger des-
cended from Imported Messenger. Thus
it will be seen that in breeding she has
no superior in Vermont or New England.
She is full sister to New Goldmine. who
is claimed by the best Judges to be one
of the best and purest-bred Morgan stall
lions in the world. Molie Lambert has
been bred to Leicester" The produce
of such mares a. Mollie when bred TO a
stallion of ''Leicester's" speed and breed

This Is too much the fashion nowadays,
Few are bold enough to present a looking

are sent to durance vile for long terms Of

OF Justice or are but lightly tiokled with

exceptions, deal gently with wholesale
REGULATORS, and most OF us seem to be get
ting out of the way of calling thieves and
plumber mongers by their right names.
This is a very bad state of things We
have been the most moral people of Chris

There is no prospect of moral reform
while we continue to treat our big villains
as tenderly as we do now. Until severe
