BE SURE AND REGISTER.

AS the election approaches every
voter in Roanoke should see to it tn t
his name is properly registered SO that
he can cast vote next month. THE
TIMES this morning publishes list of
the registrars of the city and where
they can be found.
Those who are not already registered
should do 80 at onco. Those who have
moved away from tho wards in which
they voted last should lose no time in
getting transfer to their present ward
This is very important matter. AL
together too many votes are lost through
q failure of the voter to see that he is
properly registered. In the coming
election every vote is needed and no
citizen of Roanoke should be deprived of
his right of suffrage through careless
ness in this matter Register at once.

A TINGE OF ROMANCE.
TWO HEARTS THAT BEAT AS ONE
The Marriage Last Thursday Afternoon of
Mr.. c. j. Whitehead and Miss
Clio Farnum

Clio Farnum
Dawson society was in fiutter of ex-
element last Thursday evening when it
was learned that Mr.. c. j. Whitehead and
Miss Clio Farnum had married at the
Methodist parsonage at O'Clock.
1t was known that these two popular
young people had long been enamored of
one another, but no one had any idea of
an early marriage between them--not
even their relatives and nearest friends.
On the afternoon of the marriage MI.
Whitehead and Miss Farnum went out
driving, and about 5 o'clock stopped at
the Methodist parsonage. At the same
time Mr.. G.. A. Arthur appeared at the
parsonage, having with him the authority
for minister to unite in matrimony Mr..
Chas. j Whitehead and Miss Clio Fsr-
mum.
The three were invited into the parlor
OF the parsonage, and in few moments
Rev. E. M. Whiting had solemnly and
impressively united two young hearts
that begin life under the most favorable
auspices.
After the ceremony they drove to the
home of the brides parents and inform
ed them of the marriage. The old peo-
pie accepted the situation gracefully, and
freely bestowed upon them their bless
ings.
The bride, who is the youngest daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. w. W. Farnum, is
one of the most popular young ladies OF
Dawson, being of happy and agreeable
disposition, and has worn large circle
of friends by her charming and interest
ing manners.
The groom, Who is the youngest mem
Der of the large dry goods firm of Arthur,
Crittenden & Whitehead, is young man
of fine business qualities and excellent
habits, and is held in high esteem for his
many good traits. He is genial, courte-
Gus and clever, and numbers his friends
by the score.
1t rarely falls to the lot of newspaper
man to chronicle the marriage of two
young people who enter upon the journey
of life with brighter and more promising
prospects, and The News extends to
them it's best wishes for long life of
happiness May their future be as bright
as the one is handsome and clever and
the other pretty and accomplished.
A Reception.
On Friday evening Mr.. and Mrs. White
head received their friends at the Far
mum House. K9sslerS band was en-
gagged for the occasion, and before the
close of the reception the young people
INDUCED in pleasant dance.

the schools all over the state shall ask
for them.
Harrison, of Twiggs, also comes to
the front with big school bill. He is
after having better school houses. He
wants the state to pay half the money
necessary to build these school houses in
all the communities of the state where
they are needed: All that has to be done
is for number of citizens OF the neigh
borhoOd to grant the land and pay half
the expense of the building, and the
state will do the TEST. 1t will give the
teachers and pupils better school houses,
but it will require great deal of money
to carry out the plan.
Styles, of Liberty, one of the col
ored members of the legislature, has in
PRODUCED bill to repeal the law requir-
ing the railroads to provide separate
coaches for white and colored passen-
gers.
One of the most important bills of
this session of the legislature is that in
PRODUCED by Calvin, of Richmond. The
bill is to allow state banks to tissue bank
notes, and provides that the governor,
the state treasurer and comptroller gem
eral shall be a commission to have en-
graved and printed, at the expense
the expense of the bank desiring them,
such notes as said bank desires, after
said bank deposits as collateral state or
municipal bonds equal to the notes to
protect the circulation. The law is to
take effect as soon as the governor is
notified that congress has repealed the
act levying tax of 10 per cent. on the
circulating notes of state banks.

COTTON ON THE JUMP.
Going up Every Dav--A Short Crop the
Scare.

Going up Every DaY--A Short Crop the
Scare.
One of the surprises of the day is the
rapid jump which cotton has taken OF
late.
At the opening of the present season
it was balely six cents, and every one
was crying hard times. To-day it is
bringing what it brought four years ago.
For the last few days the price has
been on the jump, going up from 10 t.
% points every day and today spot cot
ton brings 8 cents, the highest point ii
has touched this year.
A great many attribute this to the
speculation in the staple, and assign as a
cause that the surplus cotton has been
bought up by the spectators, and on
that account say that the market will not
remain firm. But those who know, show
how it is due entirely to the shortage of
the crop, there being from 100000 to
5000, 600 bales less produced than last
year
This carries its own argument with it
and should be a lesson to farmers who
insist on raising cotton, although they
must dispose of it in the end at loss.
The thing to do is to diversity the crops.
Make less cotton and more of other agri-
cultural commodities. There are crops
to be made in this section which will
pay four and even eight times as much
as cotton. Why not try them?
