A MOVEMENT is said to be on foo
to fuse the Peoples psrty and the
Prohibition party intoa single or
%ganization. IF the movement is
successful we venture the predic
ton that the party thus formed
will not be as strong as either of is
component parts was before the flu
sion. We may be mistaken, OF
course; but party fusions, as a gen
eral rule, involve more or less sacri-
fee of principle and a weakening OF
faith.
IKE Goldsboro Cotton Mills, un-
der the competent and progressive
management of their new owner, Mr..
L. d. Gulley, are socn to have a
complete system of electric lights of
their owe, Mr.. Guiley having already
placed the order for the dynamo and
fixtures. It is indeed gratifying to
The ARGUS to note this substantial
evidence of the progress of this great
and growing labor~employing enter
prise in our midst, Success to it
a thousand. fold.
SUPPOSE the "rebel brigaIiers" on
resuming control of the National
government, were to perceive the
beauty of the Force bill, appoint an
army of Democratic supervisors for
life and bestow the blessings of
"rebel" rule on New England and
the Republican States in general.
Happily such notions do not prevail
in the Democratic party of the
South or the country, nor does it
need such methods of gaining or
keeping power.
We have observed during the past
day or two, pending the large colored
travel to the A. M. E. Zion Confer
ence at Newbern, that the coaches are
completely taken up with colored
people: and white people-eyen white
ladies, have been sorely put abont for
a seat. This suggests to US the
propriety of our Legislature,
soon to convene, passing an
act, as they have the constitutional
right to do, providing for sepe1 ate
coaches for white and colored pas
ser.gers. We feel that such an act is
sadly needed in North Carolina.
The new comet, or perhaps 1t is
Biela's old comet-the astronomers
are not yet quite certain-that was
sighted on Nov. 6, is said to be ap-
preaching the earth, head on, at the
rate of several thousand miles a
second. Unless it be switched off,
it will be visible in the heavens
within a few days many times larger
in appearance than the diameter of
the full Don 1t may crash into
our planet, or it may swerve off. We
shall know very soon. Anyhow, it
is a good time for delinquent sub
scribers to settle up. They would
stand so much better "show" in the
final settlement cup there" if they
could show a clear receipt from the
hardest worked and poorest paid
man in the universe-the average
newspaper editor.
The records of Wayne, Sampson,
Duplin and Johnston counties show
a recent TRANSACTION Oh considerable
magnitude, The North State Lum-
Der Company having executed to the
Baltimore Trust and Guarantee Go.
a trust mortgage to secure the issue
of one hundred thousand dollars
in gold coupon bonds for the our
pose of constructing u manufactur-
Ing plant. The towns located at
railroad junction points throughout
this company's property are making
strenuous efforts to secure the loca-
ton Of this mammoth labor plant.
The R & D. r. r the G. F. & Y.
V. r. r. and the A. G.. L. are, of
course, vleing with one another to
secure the location of the same.
G.ldsboro being a great railroad
centre, tapping all of the lines here
in mentioned and more, should not
be Indifferent TO this golden oppor-
tunity of securing u great enterprise.
Let our business men come together
and Investigate the matter, end let
us see if We cannot, as q community,
do something for ourselves What
say you?
