THE NEWS LEAKSViLLE.
| Fl, m Ii. Leaksyii:e Gazette I

Fl n, tn !.euksvii:e Gazette
Owing to DIR. Taylor refusal to ac-
cept the nomination for Mayor of
Leaksville, Mr.. J. B. Taylor was NOM
mated for that office last Saturday,
and the ticket elected last Monday is
as follows: J. B. Taylor, Mayor;
Alex. Moir, D. F King. j. H. Hamp-
ton, Commissioners; w. A. Tinsley,
Marshal.
There was Il lively time at Went
worth on Monday when the question
in reference to the repairing of the Jail
came up before themagistrates. Mr..
Hugh K. Scott was there, cooked and
primed with dynamic legal thunder,
and heading a large delega ton from
Reidsville. After three or four hours
of wrangling, with every now and then
motions for adjournment, and every
species of tactics used to prevent the
rebuilding of the Jail, the outcome is
that the Jail is to be rebuilt, and at
Wentworth, and that Rockingham
county shall not be divided.
The railroad news this week is still
of an indefinite character. What
there is of it is by no means discour-
aging, yet it cannot be traced to an
authoritative source. 1t is said that
there is no doubt but that the r. &
ID. will within three months com
mence shoveling dirt in this vicinity,
and that the Danville & E. T. road is
almost certain to adopt a route by
way of this place, whether it goes to
Madison or not. Anew rumor passes
current almostevery day.

THE NEWS IN MADISON.
From the Mddi>oi Netos1


The r. & S. force is now at work on
the Tidball place going out of Madi-
son towards Stoneville.
Two convicts at work near the ho-
tel yesterday, quarreled over a per-
sonal matter, when one of them
struck the other on the head with a
spade, infiicting a painful wound.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. A Byerly went to
Winston on Friday last for n visit of
several days to relatives Mr.. Byerly
is also on business connected with his
brick yard at that place.
One hundred and fifty convicts ar
rived on a special train yesterday to
work on the r. & S. road. This ma
terially increases the working force on
this road, and the work will progress
rapidly.
Mr.. B. R. Webster has sold his rock
quarry to Sup't. G. W. Maslin, of the
K. & S. road. The property sold in
cludes two acres of land, and if it
should prove valuable, the balance of
the property of several acres will be
developed.
The convict who knocked down and
robbed B. V. Mckenzie, a guard on
the r. & S. road, and escaped, IL few
weeks ago, was captured in Green's
boro this week and brought over to
Madison Tuesday. He was put to
work again on the railroad, and it
will perhaps be some time before he
again enjoys freedom.

AnV House in North Carolina !

Now, all we ask is a little investi-
CATION on your part to see if what
we say is not the truth. If it is,
are we not entitled to your con-
fidence? If not the truth, you owe
it to yourselves and your neighbors
to expose our fallacies. We claim
that we brought down the prices of
dealers in other brands of Fertilizers
this is fact which is evident to
most of you. Again, we claim that
we sold Fertilizers at much less
profit than any dealer here; and in
proof of this, we will refer you to
the Bulletin issued by the State
Board of Agriculture, giving the
analyses of the different brands of
Fertilizers sold in the State, and
their worth; and, and according to
this, we sold our goods at from $500
to $500 per ton less than other
goods sold here, having an analysis
lower than ours-thereby proving
conclusively that we sold at a much
less profit than other dealers. Well,
says one, there is no truth in the fig
ures given by the State Chemist.
That being the case, why do you
keep him employed at large salary7
But, we claim that his tests are a
true basis upon which to judge of
the merits of the different Fertilizers,
and if it was not for him the State
would be flooded with worthless stuff
at exhorbitant prices.

In Memoriam.
On May 18th, 1890, Joel P. Hauser,

On May 18th, 1890, Joel P. Hauser,
of this county, quietly passed away
in death, at the advanced age of II
years and seven months. He was for
ten long, weary years an invalid, he
was a great sufferer, but he bore his
sufferings with much forttitude and
resignation, no murmur escaped his
lips. He leaves a devoted wife and
one daughter to mourn his departure,
but we trust their irreparable loss is
his eternal gain. His only son some
six years ago was called to cross that
dark, mysterious river over which the
father so recently passd. Uncle Joe,
as he was Familiarity called, will be
sadly missed, for he was loved by all
who knew him. Being well circum-
stanced in life he was the constant
benetactor of the unfortunate. and his
ears were always open to their ap-
peals. But his labors are over and
his work on earth is ended, and we
entertain the fond hope that the end
was peace.

Memorial Day In Winston

The people of Winston-Salem this
year celebrated memorial day in a
becoming manner. Hon. C. B. Wat
son delivered a most interesting ora
ton in the Opera House to a large
audience. He talked over the battles
with his old comrades and revived
many memories of the past. After
the grafton the veterans followed the
hearse of their dead comrade, Mr.. j
F. Furcron, to the cemetery and laid
him to rest with military honors.
The Salem cornet band and the For
syth Rihemen participated in the ex-
ercises of the day and aided to make
them a success.

These three brands we have sold,
and we confidently claim for them a
record second to none. We have
made strict inquiry of those who
bought of us as to their merits, and
the testimonials in every instance are
very fattering. We haven't had
single complaint. Many farmers
say they used it, side by side with
other and higher cost grades, and
that it is as good as any and in many
instances better. We want no bet

made wherever used. Now ABOUT
PRICES: Our position is this: If
the farmer can increase the yield and
enhance the value of his products
by using Fertilizers, then the more
he uses the better it is for HIM and
for the merchant. Consequently
your interests and our interests
are identical, and anything we
can do to help you will behelping
ourselves, and it stands to reason
that the cheaper we sell to you
the more you can buy, hence the in

THE Democratic caucuses in the
various precincts of the several wards
held harmonious meetings last night
and nominated good tickets OF represent
alive men. The keynote that went out
in each caucus was to elect men for the
convention who would put forth the
very best ticket for the county that can
possibly be selected. The Democracy is
going to make a strong and united
effort to redeem this county from the cor
rupt and extravagant Republican control
it has been under the past two years.
The people are willing to take the lead
ing Republican organ in this city at it's
word, when it arraigns the board of
supervisors for its lavish and wasteful
expenditure ON the court house, and
accepting that arraignment as only one
of many instances. of the same charac-
ter, are ready and anxious to make a
change to an honest and economic Demo-
cratic administration OF all the county
offices. "Dinna we hear the slogan ?"

The death of Frederick Billings at his
home in Woodstock, Vermont, gives to
the great destroyer the last member OF
one of the most celebrated law firms
of California in pioneer days. The
partnership of Halleck, Peachy, Billings
and Park was engaged in all the great
cases of early days. When the war of
the rebellion broke out Halleck was
placed at the head of all the armies
of the Union. Peachy died few years
ago at his home in Alameda county,
having sunk into obscurity after
the dissolution of the firm. Park
amassed a competency, went to New
York and made millions as an operator
on Wall street. Billings went east, too,
and became president of the Northern
Pacific railroad when Willard collapsed
in 1881. Park will be remembered as
the Nemesis of I. G. Wood, the princi-
pal partner in the San Francisco branch
of Adams Express company. When the
express and banking institution failed,
impoverishing all it's depositors, the
aooCt5, WulCu WcIc cuOIAOuS, UCCduiC
the prey of set of harpies who were
confederates of Wood. They carried
off the gold dust in sacks at night from
the Alsop & Co. safe in which it had
been deposited. A. A. Cohen was ap-
pointed receiver. The books of the de-
funct concern were missing. Park under
tookyto save something from the wreck
and compel restitution of the vast sum
stolen. Cohen was arraigned, and at a
critical conjuncture of the trial the lost
books, dripping wet, were brought into
court, having been found in the bay
near North Beach. The scene was dra-
matte in the extreme and played con-
spicuous part in removing the receiver,
when Park was appointed in his place.
BAT the poor depositors never saw dol
Lar Of their money. Cohen subsequently
built railroad and Park became mil
ionaire.

Mr.. G. P. HUNTINGTON has postponed
his promised Svisit to California till after
Christmas. This, of course, means that
he will not take any part in the Stanford
senatorial fight, but give his partner a
clear field to himself. Thus ends all the
Huntington bloviation about keeping
the railroads out of politics. Does any
one suppose. that in the absence of di-
rect opposition from Huntington, STAN
ford will not make use of the powerful
forces at his command in the great cor
poration with which he has been identi-
fied from the start? 1t must be patent
to everybody that the success of the Re-
publican party means the election OF
Gov. Stanford to the senate.

The Chronicle is trying hard to pro
woke the Democratic press to make per-
sonal reprisals upon Markham's record
by assailing Pond because he owns stock
in insurance and other companies. 1t
looks as if the Chronicle is anxious that
its attitude against Markham before he
was nominated should be justified by
forcing the Democratic press to rip up the
mining stock record of the Republican
nominee for governor. 1t may possibly
succeed in forcing the issue to this COM
plexion before the campaign is much
older. If so, look out for squalls.
