These Are Facts Too.

Winston is enjoying to-day unpre-
cedented prosperity. The wide open
hand of a beneficient providence is
richly showering blessings upon all
of our people. AS rule every le-
git;mate business here is prospecting.
The output Of manufactured tobac-
co will be more than a third of
what it was any previous year, and
all other manufacturing business is in
like ratio. The sales Of the mer-
chants will be doubled, while the
mechanic and brick masons are up
to their armpits' in work, and still
everything is moving along in a
calm and conservative way, but ev-
erybody keeps moving-it is onward
and upward. There is no undue
haste or excitement. A careful
painstaking plodding, but the plod-
der is the man that is going to get
there. Unlike any5other city in
America to which people and money
have been attracted, the citizens
here have not gone wild with excite
ment-they are not built that way
they are the coolest and most con-
sentative set you have ever seen.
They know they have got a good
thing and they want the balance of
the world to come and help them en-
JOY it, and they are offering every
reasonable inducement thoy can to
have them come.
Come right this way-beautlfu
corner lots cheap, fine scenery, ele-
giant climate and pure. water thrown
In.

A New Outlet to Norfolk Suggested.

Mr.. EDIToR:-The fact that the
Norfolk and Western Railroad in
connection with English and New
York capitalists interested in the
American Transport Company to run
steamers regularly from Norfolk to
Liverpool, London, and Bremen,
renders it a matter of great impor
lance that Winston should have a
direct outlet to Norfolk. Allow me
to suggest, therefore, that a short
line of railway, only 43 miles long,
between Stoneville on the Roanoke
& Southern and Milton on the Allan
tic & Danville, would be the most
economical means of securing the
desired outlet. The towns of Stone
vile, Leaksville, Ruffin and Milton
could be relied upon for help, and
the city of Winston, the Piedmont
Development Company, of Mayo
Falls, and the r. & S. and A. & D.
railroads. all of which would be bene-
fitted by the construction of the pro-
posed road, might be looked to for
help also. The route presents no
engineering difficulties whatever. A
bridge across Dan River near Leaks
vile would be the only costly work
involved in the enterprise. This
road, running between Danville and
Reidsville, through the brightest to-
bacco belt, would materially benefit
our tobacco market. It might be
built as branch of the Roanoke &
Southern. j. BRADFIELD.

A WEEKS WORK.
Some of the Enterprises Started in the
South.

For the last week, according to the
summary of the Baltimore Manufac-
turers' Record, the activity was grea-
ter than for months, in the Southern
States. The advancementw was mark
ed. Among the new industries re-
ported for the week ARE contracts for
the erection of the South Boston
Iron Works at Middlesborough, KY,
amounting to $134 900; contracts
for new water works engines at At
lanta, $154, 900; IL $125,OOO muck
bar and a nail mill at Low Moor,
Va.;a $500, 900 foundry and machine
company, West Virginia; a $4,000
lumber company, Louisville, KY;
a $5O, 900 cotton mill company, Vir-
ginia; three phosphate companies,
with 100000 $4,000 anu $4O,-
600 capital stock. in Florida; a $780,
900 knitting mill company in An
derson county; n $4,000 electric
light and water company at Airing
ton, Md; a 100000 manufacturing
company at Richmond, Va, a $780,
OCO building company in West Vir-
ginia; $4,000 bobbin and shuttle
company at High Point, N. C.; a
$4,000 and a $4,000 coal COM
pany in West Virginia; a $4,000
cotton compress company at Column
bia, S. c.; a $25,6OO lumber COM
pany in Florida; 100000 carriage
company and a 100000 glass COM
pany iii West Virginia; 81 500, 900
land company in Louisiana; a 81 Co.,
900 brewery company at Vicks burg,
Miss; a 100000 storage company
at Baltimore, and a 100000 brick
company in Kentucky.
These are very encouraging signs
surely. While perhaps North Caro-
lima does not keep up with the pro-
cessiOn as well as some of the other
States, it is in the procession and is
moving. We hope the year of 1891
will mark very great progress in our
State, and that Winston will not
lag behind in any particular. 1t has
many great advantages.

GOV. HOLT AND THE PLAID TRUST
VIA; the Governor Has to Say About
the Matter.

The report has gained currency all
over the State that Gov. Holt be-
longed to what is called the Plaid
Trust. The Charlotte Chronicle said
it was reported and asked the Gov
ernor for statement of the facts in
the case. This is what he writes to
the editor of the Chronicle:
Gas some of my fellow citizens have
publicly expressed the desire that l
should state whether or not was
connected with "trust" in my bust
ness operations, and unwilling to
even seeming appear Indifferent to
their wishes, / now say that I am
conducting my private business, like
every good citizen should, according
to the laws of my country and State,
and am aware that both the Federal
and State laws provide against
trusts, and declare them to be illegal
| could not afford in my present posi-
ton, to violate laws which l swore
to see executed; nor could I as a cit
izen of North Carolina, engage in any
business enterprise subversive and
violative of the law
Believing that the people will con-
cede to me the right to attend to my
personal affairs according to law,
and thanking you for your friendly
illusions to myself, am yours very
truly, THOs. M. Holt.

MANA JOTTINGs.
Happenings in and Around Yadkin
County.

1. 1t was the pleasure of your cores
Iondent to attend divine service in
the thriving little village of East
Bend the past Sabbath. Rev. C. C..
Haymore assistant by Rev. HI. A.
Brown. of your city, is holding his
annual summer meeting there, and
we foun'l very large congregation
out. Muci. interest was manifested
and we trust many will be turned to
walk in the narrow way. We found
much improvement going on since
last there, quite a number of new and
tasty dwellings, being built. The
railroad is doing much to build it up
and the country at large.
We are sorry to chronicle the fact
of our worthy Young friend, Mr.. Chas.
Nickolson's mental condition. His
mind gave way and his parents will
seni him to MorgantOn. He Was a
worthy, hard working young man
who had no bad habits, ETC. Weearn-
estly hope he will soon regain his
mental powers.
Prof. Mosely has opened his sum-
nler session under very bright pros
poets here. He is truly a worthy
gentleman, and a horned schoo
teacher.
Corn is about laid by and we farm
ers are busy putting tobacco worms
out of the way. Mr.. p. L. Early, of
this place, has ~ field oftobacco that
is ce. tainly hard to beat, the leaves
are now 25 inches long by Is inches
wide. There are others who have
very fine tobacco. The crop is unus-
ually fine throughout this section.
Corn is doing well also. Wheat is
turning out pretty well.
Mr.. D. L. Shore, is building a large
-four and grist mill at his distillery
here. Messrs. league & Crowder
have the new saw mill in operation.
Messrs. Shore & Myers, of Flint Hill,
who were recently burned out, will
rebuild in the near future.
Our section up here on the grand
old Yadkin, is building up very rap
idly. The world can't beat it for
hard working people and good
health. Eric.

Pull together gentlemen, it is in
unity that there is strength; 1t is in
discord that there is weakness. A
kind word for this or that enterprise
cost you nothing and in the end it
may prove handsome investment.
Men sometimes forget-they selfish
ly come to the conclusion that they
have monopoly Of unkind words,
when in reality they are monkeying
with the blade Of dangerous weap-
on; it's the other man that will hold
it by the handle to repel your un-
just assaults. We do not suppose
for moment that these remarks
would apply to any one here, but
. they are made for what they are
worth and would be worth q. good
deal to anyone contemplating doing
what they advise against should
they heed them.

During the colored base ball game
Monday afternoon at Athletic Park
seventeen fowl balls were knocked
over into the adjoining lots. The
players attempted to get the balls
but were refused. This raised a big
row and the consequence little war
was created and eye-witnessrs say
that razors, pistols, rocks, clubs,
etc were ''fying in the air." and it
looked at one time as if n wholesale
numbering would take place. The
matter, fortunately, was finally qui-
eted down without anybody getting
