CROPS AND POLITICS AT CANA.

lSpccict Correspondence of III Scatine1
Upland corn is growing finely, but
there is rather too much rain for
bottoms.
Wheat threshing has been very
much retarded by the rains, and the
crop is turning out very poorly.
Mr. W. D. McClamrock, who went
from this neighborhood to Poukeep-
sic, N. Y, to attend the Business col
lege, is lying at that place very i'll,
and is not expected to recover. He
had just finished his course at the
college, and was about starting to
enter upon an engagement when he
was taken sick.
Politics has taken on a milder form
in these parts since the Salisbury
convention, EVERYBODY seemed salts
fed. Now for a long pull, a hard
pull and a pull altogether, all over
the good old North State. Let the
farmers vie with all others as to who
shall cast the most votes for the
good men who have been nominated.

Messrs. kerner and r. B. Glenn are

it is Forsyth's time to nominate a

The candidates for the Legislature
haven't come forward yet. We

WHY MOTT

\ number of mechanics, working
men, etc, who have quite a distance
to walk each day to their respective
places of business, are earnestly de-
sirous that the street car company
grant them special rates on the cars,
in consideration of the fact that they
will be regular passengers. This oc-
ours to the writer as being Il good
suggestion, and not in the least an
unreasonable request. The addition
nj receipts thus realized by the COM
pany would, in great measure, be a
clear income, from the fact that
many of this class of citizens do not
receive wages sufficient to allow
them to embrace the benefits of the
cars at transient rates. At all
events, the increased patronage will
more than make up for the reduction
An arrangement of this kind will be
a benefit to all parties concerned, land
IL great convenience to suburban citi-
Zens and others who do business
here. CONSERVATIVE.

was saved, but that on the third

The building was formerly owned
by Messrs. Pfohl & Stockton and run

mated at about $4,000, on which

The Terminus Will Be Roanoke.

For some weeks it has been unc r.
tain whether the terminus of the r..

its neighbor town, Salem, Va.
The trouble was that property
owners in Roanoke asked an enor-
nous sum for the right of way
through their lands, while Salem Of
fered it free. This difficulty has now
been overcome. The prominent bus
ness men of Roanoke organized "a
guarantee company, with a capital
stock of $4,000. This company has
bought the right of way for the road
