The Durham daily globe. (Durham, N.C.) 1889-1894, 1890-11-03

-Nr. +. W. Burt, the popular insur-
ance agent, of South Boston, Va, for
merly with Q. E. Rawls, of this place,
spent yesterday and to-day in the city.
Mr.. Burt is one of the coming young men
which means that sooner or later he will
come back to Durham
All will read with interest and de-
light that the First National Bank of this
city proposes to increase its capital
stock to 100000. The First National
is one of the strong institutions of Dur
ham, and it is always pleasure to note
that strong institutions are fourishing.
The business man who wanted some
one to kick him, was the one who was
left out of a good advertising medium.
THE WEEKLY GLOBE will fill the bill for
the next four weeks. The time to get
in is not later than Wednesday noon. At
that time the list closes and the play
ends.
Concerning THE GLOBES announce
ment of the First National bank, we may
have been little premature. That is to
say, there is kink in the deal some way,
but it will all be Strengthened out, and
here's dollars 20 doughnuts that there is
magnificent building erected on that
corner

Mutual Manufacturing company. This
organization is composed of well-known
business men and capitalists of Durham.
They mean business-their word is as
good as their bond, and now is the time
to subscribe.
We learn that Mr.. Bristow, the gen.
tleman formerly in charge of the express
office on Parrish street, has taken a posi-
tion with the Durham Fertilizer company
and will look after the interest of the
company in the state of Georgia. Mr.. W.
c. Atwell, Of Greensboro, succeeds Mr..
Bristow as express agent.
Tomorrow morning the saloons close;
the voter takes his little ballot and walks
up to the polls and votes for whoever he
pleases And this is the reward for liv-
ing in free country-a country where
kings do not monkey much with our
liberty. THE GLOBE wants all men to
vote but it wants them to vote just as
they choose. 1t will trust to their intel
ligence.
The Strayhorn spring, once a popu-
lar resort does not receive many visitors
in these times. The old beech tree upon
which the name of visitors are carved
grows older and the names grow more
obscure. The spring is not as vigorous
as it was twenty years ago, but runs on
and sighs and murmurs as it runs. That
is to say, the water from the spring does
all this, and the question is: What are
you going to do about it

This first of the month business is
what pulls hard on time. Men who owe
are out with bills and men owing are out
with other bills. A merchant to-day re-
marked that he expected to collect fifteen
hundred dollars and if he got in two
hundred he guessed he was doing we'll
Colonel Shakespeare said it nicely when
he told the kid to neither borrower nor
lender be. He should have cautioned
people generally about running into
debt. A cash business is often more sue
cessful than time business.

"A lyrge crowd greeted Hi Henry's min
strels at the opera house last night, and
