Some massive intellect, signing Tim,
othy Hsyseed, has the following t. sa,
regarding Mr.. Hoever's selling hi,
wheat to farmers on a year ; time with.
out interest.
Gn Mr.. Finley should sell his wheat
to farmers at 80 cents for cash and one
dollar on a years time, secured by a
negotiable note without interest, he
would expect to have some democratic
mathematician to figure % per cent. of
campaign thunder out Of tho DEAL"
The writer evidently not only has
hay seed in his hair, but a luxuriant
growth Of moss on his back. Of course
Mr.. Hoover gave one hundred dollars
to buy seed wheat two years ago and
put his name down in the cheese facto-
~ enterprise for one hundred dollars
one year ago, because he expected to
run for the legislature. Mr.. Hayseed
evidently sprung from the suburbs of
OF he could comprehend that
wheat will be worth $3.50 per bushel
10 . year or less.

ThoS. lAHEY.

There has always been a disposition
among republicans in this county draw
away from their party in county poll
tics whenever the nominations we're ILL.,
advised. This spirit Is commendable,
and it is prevalent with country re-
pubhcans as we'll as the city members
Of the party. The democrats are
aware that the county is republican,
and that the nomination of good
reliable men is the only hope of carry
ing the day. 1t was with this in view
that Thos. Lahey receiued the nomina-
ton, without opposition, at the hands
Of the nominating convention. His ad-
ministratioa of the affairs of the district
clerks Office has been without fault and
consequently without criticism. He
has made = model oficor, not only in
his intercourse with those having busl-
ness with the Office, but in keeping the
records in splendid shape. HE re-
narkable popularity with the people is
beeotten Of . disposition full Of friend
ship and kindly regard; through the
ready hand he extends to those in need
and his willingness to do whatever is
within his power to help those asking
it. He not only attends to whatever
business voter may have with him as
clerk of the courts, hut he cheerfu!ly
and wil:irgiy goes cut Of his way TO
advise, lock up aui assist in every
thing which may or may not be con-
nected with his Official duties. His
opponent. MF. CLARK, may be q good
man, but TO one knows II to, be SO.
While he has lived III the county a
long time, he is practically unknown
outside his Immediate ucighborl,ond.
The voters viii make no mistake.
They viii retain the services of Ton
Lahey-a man of sterling worth. true
to his official trust. model ofic er and

The Globe continues its crusade
AGAINST the democratic candidates be-
cause they are from Dodge City. The
Globes fight is on the line that you
should not vote for a man if he is a
democrat and resides in Dodge City.
1t seeks 70 create fratricidal war be-
tween the country and city. This is
wrong; all wrong The men of Dodge
City and Ford county are here to work
out the destiny Of this country, should
er to shouldera and hand in hand. If
the country fails, the city fails, through
the identity of interests conferred in a
common welfare. If it is wrong to
vote for man because he lives in
Dodge City, tits wrongt to have relations
with him in any other respect. The
attempt to create prejudice in the
minds of the people, to stir up strife
and contention between the city and
country is guage of the desperate
straits in which the republicans are
placed.

Well, we'll state right here that Mr..
Beadle has taught the school. Now
then, why did Mr.. BeadIe quit teach

The Globe is fully aware that Mr..
Swinehart has taught ten years in this
system of schools.
"Rather than let the country people
have one name on your ticket, you
would bestow the Office of county su-
upon man who already
has good situation at better salary

Drowned in the Yadkin.

The Lexington Dispatch says:
After the very heavy rain fall on
Thursday morning, February 81,
at Fulton, Davie county, Mr.. John
H. Hanes, his son George and a ne
gro man, named Albert Hairstol, in
the employ of Mr.. Hanes, went
upon an unfinished mill dam across
Carriers creek, near the Yadkin river,
to ward off the drift-wood which was
being borne down upon the food,
threatening the safety of the high
stone dam. The water rose rapidly
and the drift came thicker, until at
length the heroic efforts of the three
men were overcome, and a section of
the heavy dam gave way, carrying
Albert Hairston with it into the
stream below. He was quickly horne
upon the angry flood. out into the
great Yadkin, which was also much
swollen, crying fol. help. Pursuit
was made as quickly as possible in
boats, but ere the rescuing party
could reach him, the poor man amid
cries for help, sank out of sight and
was see no more. Search is still be-
ing m ,de, but owing to the swollen
condition of the river, there is but
little hope of recovering the body.
Hairston leaves a wife and four chill
dren.
Mr.. Hanes and his son escaped un-
hurt. The dam referred to was COM
pletely washed out to it's foundation
last August, and its reconstruction
cost Mr.. Hanes many months OF
hard labor and hundreds of dollars.
His loss. therefore. is a heavy one.

Fire in Greensboro.

A very destructive fire broke out in
Greensboro at about 4 O'Clock Sum
day morning in the brick block stu
ated on the corner of South Elm and
West Sycamore streets. The build
ing was Il two-story ground floor,
occupied by John O'Connor's groce-
~, and also a store adjoining, used
for storage by him. The second
floor was occupied by the extensive
job printing and binding establish
ment of Thomas Bros. The whole
establishment was almost an entire
loss. The fire originated in a brick
addition at the rear, which had once
been a steam laundry. The cause
was accidental. Soon the flames
were communicated to a windmill
tower in the rear, through which the
flames shot like blast furnace. The
fire engine was early on the scene
and did effective work
The losses were as follows: Thorn
as Bros, on printing Office, $4,000
to 81, 900, insured in the Commercial
Union for $4,000; John O'Connor,
valued at $4,000, insured in the
Providence of Washington for ST.

fielder, dry goods damaged by smoke
81 900; loss on the building, owned
by DR.. d. w. c. Benbow, $4,000.

Bessemer's Steel Works.

1t is announced from Greensboro
that at the meeting of the N. C.. Steel
and Iron Co., held last week, it was
decided to issue a prospectus and be-
gin work on the furnace as soon as
possible.
This leads us to remark again that
if the Greensboro iron mill is sue
cess, Winston will certainly have one.
Gentlemen in this city who have no
interest whatever in Greensboro
enterprise hold options on nearly all
the best mineral land between here
and the Cranberry mines. They have
some especially rich iron mines in
Allegheny county. Only few days
ago a mining expert who represented
a western syndicate, was in Alleg-
hany county and found, to his dis
gust, that nearly all the desirable
mining lands were under option to
Winston men.
1t is only a question of time when
Winston will have one of the biggest
steel and iron plants in the South.

About a Public Building.

We learn from the Washington cor
respondent of the State Chronicle
that the committee on appropria-
tions has reported favorab bly, for ap-
preparations for public buildings in
the following North Carolina towns:
Greensboro, $50, 900 additional; Win
ston. 100000; Reidsville, 1875 900;
Oxford, 100000; Henderson, $685.
900; Wilmington, $4,000 addition
al; Fayetteville, SIS, 600; total,
$685., 900.
While it is true that Winston has
been included in this committee re-
port, it is equally true, unfortunate
ly, that these committee reports
mean but very little unless they are
followed up and an earnest effort
made to bring the matter to the fav-
orable attention of Congress by a
petition from the citizens of this
town setting forth Winston's claims,
and delegation should be sent to
Washington to "hustle" for it. That
is the way other towns have secured
their buildings and that is the only
way Winston will ever secure one.
We understand that gentleman
of this city who had means of secur
ing influence with this administra-
tion made a proposition to certain
of our citizens, agreeing to furnish
nearly half of the money necessary
to pay the expenses of a delegation
to Washington if they would raise
the balance. The party mentioned
further agreed that he would leave
the selection of the delegates to those
who subscribed their money.
This proposition fell through. We
can not understand why, but sup
pose it was because it was not gener-
ally known.
Another similar proposition was
made to secure a free delivery. The
receipts at this post-office are now
large enough to entitle us to a free
delivery (They are over $4,000 a
year, yet we can't get it unless we
strustle'' for it.
These are the facts in the case. 1t
is well for US to understand, in the
premises, that we must make a
strong effort and that our citizens
must spend q little money in defray.
ing the expenses of delegation to
! Washington.
