SAY, whether you be Democrat,
a Republican, or thoughtless Third
Party man, to which last named you
have not yet had the opportunity of
committing yourself by ballot and
can therefore repent ere it be too
late-whatever you be, if you be of
Southern birth and not devoid of
honor, speak out like man and say
what you think of demagogue
Weaver's speech as recorded on the
editorial page Of FHE AReUs this
morning. Can you vote tor him!
The condition of Mr.. Fab. Sasser
was reported to be much improved
yesterday, and it is be hoped that
the affray between him and Mr.. Will
lis Brogden, which was reported in
Yesterdays ARGUS, will be permitted
to take the course of the law with
out the neighborhood taking sides
and promulgating hard feeling.
Both men have proved excellent citi-
zens heretofore, and both are acting
Justices of the Peace of the county
Mr.. Brogden has been required to
give bond, pending the recovery of
Mr.. Sasser, and as soon as the latter
is convalescent the trial will come off
according to due proc IS of law.
The affair is greatly to be regretted.
It grew out of Mr.. Brogden's COW
damaging Mr.. Sasser's corn.
In the death of their infant

We believe it is safe to say that
there is not another city of the size
of Goldsboro in the United States
but what has some system of naming
streets and numbering the houses.
The lack Of such system does not
cause much inconvenience to those
Sc to the manner born, but is a
prolific source of trouble with those
who have lived here only few
years. We would suggest that the
Board Of Aldermen give this subject
their attention, and see if they can
not devise some plan by which this
suggestion can be carried out. Unless
we wish to have our beautiful city
regarded as a non-progressive coun-
ftry village, we must do away with
these relics of barbarism and lopt
methods that are more suitable to
the twentieth century.
AT his home in this county, near
the Lenoir line, Tuesday morning,
Col. Jf1o. W. Isler, one of our most
esteemed and influential citizens,
and chairman of the Board of County
Justices, died of heart disease. He
| was high-toned Christian gentle
man, possessing the absolute conf
| dence Of all who knew him. He
represented the Democratic constitu-
ency in the Legislature several years
ago and his fellow citizens were al
ways proud to do i'm honor. He
was Consistent member of the Bap-
tist Church, and leaves a wife and
family and a wide circle of relatives
and friends to mourn his loss. He
was some 60 years of age. The
funeral took place yesterday after
noon from his late home, Rev. j. III.
Edwards, of this city, officiating.
A PARTY of twelve young men,
under the captaincy of J. A. West
brook, left Mount Olive Tuesday
morning for Lake Waccamaw, upon
whose beautiful shores they will en-
camp for a week. The party is we'll
equipped with all necessary tents,
cooking utensils, provisions, ETC., and
their supplies, augmented by the
fish they ''expect to Cat tch" assr~e
as that the board will groan under
its load of Injuries. This manner
of spending vacation is one that is
worthy of consideration by all young
men who are undecided as to where
or how they shall spend the Summer
