ADVERTISING CITIES.

The following from the Richmond
7obaefonist, will apply with equal
force and appropriateness to Hender-
son and other places as ii does to the
seven hill city. 1t says:
In this age of sharp competition
among cities for trade extension each
wide awake city endeavors to keep
itself we'll advertised before the world.
Business methods have changed very
much. Mercantile firms cannot sit
down and wait for trade to come to
them, as formerly. They have to send
their statesmen on the " road to drum
for trade. And this rule of going out
and drumming which the merchants
were compelled to resort to applies to
all the interests of cities. Richmond
is splendid city to live in. 1t is a
good city in which to invest capital.
But we must keep the city well adver-
tised if we would keep up with the
other growing cities of the land. There
are various ways of advertising Rich
mond. Public spirit is the best adver-
tisement that any city could have.
Publicspirited cities are certain to at
tract attention. The more that Rich
mond does in this line the greater will
be the interest which the outside world
will take in the city.

in magnitude the Cyolopedia compares

Dcmorest's Family Magazine.

The "White House," to most people,
means a fiat, two-story, unpicturesque
white house, as the view generally given
OF it shows the severely plain north front
but there are many other views of the
home of our Presidents, and we are in
debted to Demoresfs Family Magazine
for laying them before us. The May
number of this popular Magazine literal
ly takes you to Washington and shows
you the white House" from every
point of view, as well as its charming
surroundings. The seventeen beautiful
illustrat tons will give you a better idea
of the nations Executive Mansion than
you could possibly gain by Il personal
visit; and never before has it been so full
ly and beautifully illustrated. This fea-
ture alone will make the May number of
Dsmotest's Family Magazine have aphenom-
enol sale; and those who are so fortunate
as to possess it, will find in it a fund of
information and amusement, containing,
as it does, nearly two hundred illustra-
tions, cmbellisbing such articles as "A
May Festival in Florence, "Transforma-
tons of Butterfly" "The Seller Uni

THE RIGHT KIND OF ENCOURAGE
MENT.

The people of Henderson evidently
know the true way to advertise the in
dustries and resources Of their town
and section. We observe that the
Chamber of Commerce of that thriving
town has ordered that the leading
paper, the GOLD LEAF, be awarded
the printing of the newly organized
Chamber; that standing advertise
ment be inserted in that paper, and
that as many extra copies thereof as
can be judiciously distributed be SUBJ
scribed for and mailed, from time to
time, to the outside world
This is the right kind of encourage
ment, and it is the true way, and the
only true way, to judiciously advertise
a town. Henderson's Chamber of
Commerce carries level head on its
Observation-Disclosures DAILY.
That we only need to let the out
side world know the extent and varie-
ty of our natural and undeveloped re-
sources, to have them opened up and
turned to profitable account, is shown
by couple of letters published else
where in TINS paper. Two weeks ago
we called attention to the fact that
there are in this county valuable mines
of soapstone, of such character and
quantity as might be prohtably worked,
and already we are receiving enquiries
from a distance about it.
The fact was also mentioned that
there is in the county fine milestone
quarry that might be made paying
investment if properly developed. We
have letter from gentleman asking
particulars in regard to that, and it is
likely he may be induced to take hold
of the enterprise. His letter is pub
lished in another column.
We may mention i'll this connection
that we know of a rich deposit of tale
in Vance county, and we believe in
quiry and search are only necessary to
reveal the existence and whereabo uts
of other minerals and ores III this sec
ton. The GOLD LEAF asks for infor-
nation on this subject and will gladly
bring such to the attention of the out
side world

The business men of Henderson
would increase their business wonder
fully and add materially to the value
of every dollars worth of property, if
they would reach out their hands to
the people between here and Nashville,
through Franklin and Nash, and help
them build a railroad down in that
country. An editorial article copied
from the Arg0nam and two original

published in last weeks issue, shows
the interest there is in such an enter

We all appreciate the fact that 4
large and fourishing female school is
worth great deal to a community,
morally, educationally and financially
but perhaps we do not realize how
much Henderson is losing when her
splendid college building is standing
unoccupied. Looking at the matter
from purely commercial standpoint,
we cannot afford for this to be SO. The
Winston Daily says:
The Salem Academy expends direct
ly in Winston Salem annually $50, 900.
This does not include the thousands of
dollars spent here by the young lady
students, but it gives some faint idea
of the value of a large school to town.
This school has been in operation now
for nearly century.

SOME time last year ReisdyiIle
and Henderson were talking about
building cotton factory about the
same time. We held few meetings
and talked the matter over, and that
was the end of it. Some of the enter
prising citizens of Redsvlle went
ahead and built their factory and now
it is in successful operation. The Re
Oiezo says Of it:
Our cotton mill is getting on nicely
and is as we'll equipped as any mill in
the State. The capital stock has re-
Gently been increased to $4,000,
with about $4,000 more cash paid in.
An additional order for about 5000
more of machinery has been made
lately. An addition TO the main
building will be made right away. The
number of operatives will be increased
and it is probable the mill will run
both day and night.

THE WILMINGTON MESSENGER.

One of the most enterprlslng and
progressive newspapers in the South,
and one of the foremost in point OF
general excellence and ability, is the
Wilmington Messenger. Not satisfied
with its splendid achievements hereto
fore in the way of special trade editions,
its latest being the Cape Fear & Yad-
kin Valley Railroad edition, recently
issued, it proposes next to celebrate
the beginning of its fourth year in Will
mington on the 28tE Of June,by issuing
sixty-four page State Industrial edi-
tion-the largest newspaper enterprise
ever attempted in the South. 1t will
take over 10000 pounds of paper to
print that one issue. While the inter
ests of Wilmington will be well looked
after every other section and interest
will have full justice done it. We are
proud of such newspaper as the Will
nington Messenger. 1t deserves the
most liberal support from the people
of the State, without regard to locality.

HENRY WATTERsoN, in his address
before the Southern Press Association

True prosperity is diffusion of wealth,
cheap homes for the poor and opportu-
mites for all. If we must have snew
South let it be an honest new South ,
for with all the shortcomings and mis-
takes that were ever ascribed to us, our
arrogance, ignorance and barbarism,
we were never accused of picking a
pocket or turning our back upon an
enemy or friend. Let us stand by all
that was good in the old South, all
that was upright in thought and brave
in action, and with our past behind us
alike to warn us and to cheer, let us
turn our face to the future erect in the
sight of Heaven and earth and saying
to mankind, "Applaud us if we run,
console us if we fall, but let us pass on,
for Gods sake, let US pass on"

LET US HAVE A GEOLOGICAL SUR.
NEY.

North Cardinals mineral wealth is
not half known and appreciated. We
do not begin to comprehend her vast
and inexhaustible resources. Every
week some new discovery is made
along this line. This development
should be more rapid, and right here
the necessity of thorough geological
survey is clearly manifest. No money
could be spent to better purpose and
the GOLD LEAF hopes the next Legis-
lature will make specialappropiration
for this object. We repeat, what we
have said before, that a thorough geo.
logical survey would be worth millions
of dollars to North Carolina, and in
this position we are sustained by many
of the leading papers of the State. On
this subject the Wilmington Star says
Granville county has not heretofore
been classed among the mineral bear
ing counties OF the State, and her peo-
pie gave but little attention to this mat
ter, being more interested in the cult
walton of fine tobacco, but there is no
doubt, from the frequent finds now re-
ported from time to time, that the
county is richly endowed with various
minerals. The frequency of these finds
leads the Henderson GOLD LEAF and
Oxford Day to remark that "thorough
geological survey would be worth mil
lions Of dollars to North Carolina"
There is no doubt Of that Minerals
are now being found in counties in this
State where few years ago their pres
ence was not suspected, and they will
be found hereafter where their presence
is not suspected now. There is not
man in North Carolina, however we'll
informed he may be, who has anything
like an accurate conception of the min
eral resources of this State, and they
never will be fully revealed until a
thorough geological survey is made.
Such a survey would indeed be "worth
millions of dollars to North Cardinal
