Paw Your Taxes.

Sheriff Powell calls upon all persons
who have not paid their taxes for the
year 1898, to do so without further
delay. He gives notice by ADVERTISE
ment in this paper of the times and
places he will attend during the month
for the collection of taxes due. The
Sheriff is required by law to collect the
taxes and they must be paid. 1t is not
a matter discretionary with him and
indulgence cannot be allowed. If he is
not met at the times and places named
and all taxes paid, the accounts will be
put into the hands of an officer with
instructions to levy, advertise and sell.
Delinquents will take notice and govern
themselves accordingly.

The Roanoke Affair.

Mr. Will Wood, of Roanoke, Va, who
VIII be remembered as having lived here
with Barnes, Stainback & Co., at one
time, is visiting friends in Henderson this
week. He says everything is quiet there
since the recent deplorable tragedy by
which the lives of number of good and
innocent persons were needlessly sacri-
feed. Those killed were not a part of
the mob that made the attack on the
jail for the purpose OF getting the pris-
oner to lynch him, but simply spectators
who went along to see what was going
to be done, not having any idea OF the
tragic turn and sad ending OF the affair.
And this fact makes the whole thing all
the more deplorable. None of the mob"
proper, those who were engaged in try
ing to batter down the Jail door at the
time the military fired, were killed or
even wounded. This was all going on at
a side or rear door while the soldiers were
stationed in the front part of the build
ing. and shot from the windows upon
the crowd that thronged the streets op-
poslte to the number of four or five
thousand

AN INTERESTING LITTLE
VOLUME,
Minnesota "A Brief Sketch Of
Its History, Resources and Ad-
VantaPes.'

From Mr.. Geo. N. Lamphere, of Moor
head, Mimi, a member of the committee,
we have received pretty and attractive
little volume bearing the above title,
issued by authority of the Minnesota
Board of Worlds Fair Managers 1t is a
bit of Worlds Fair literature that
deserves more than a passing notice, as
it is most attractively illustrated and it's
letter press is exceedingly interesting and
highly fattering to the North StarState.
The first page of cOveris printed in seven
cOlOrs and presents unique and attrac-
tive picture. The conspicuous figure is an
Indian maiden, standing in the fore
ground, her feet resting on the beautiful
mOccasin flower, which has been adopted
as the State flower of Minnesota. She is
in a wheat field a part of the grain hav-
ing been cut, and a binder is shown at
rest at the edge of the uncut portion. In
the distance are the farm buildings sur
rounded by groves of trees. Above all is
the blue tinted sky. shining out from
which high up in the North is large star
respondent and bright, indicating the
clude Minnehaha Falls, prominent public
buildings, some of the grand lakes of the
State, quarries, farm scenes, portraits of
all the governors and of the Board OF
Worlds Fair Managers and Woman's
Auxiliary Board. An excellent map of
the States found within the covers The
letter press is admirably handled and
begins with a sketch reciting the most
prominent events in the States history
This is followed by a general description
of the material State, the principal
natural features, area, rivers, lakes, soil,
| climate, productions, w'th statistics of
industries, including wheat. corn, flax,
fruits, vegetables, live stock, dairying,
| numbering, mining, manufacturing, with
prices and profits. The social state is
covered, showing character of people,
population, wealth and taxation, debt,
education, etc. The last fifty pages cover
a brief description of each of the eighty
counties of the State, showing area,
| surface features, extent of land under
| cultivation, character OF soil productions,
extent OF land for sale, with range of
prices, and population. 1t makes out
strong showing for MINNESOTA as a state
having all the best elements that make
happy homes and prosperous people We
shall be mistaken if tle publication
does not prove SUGGEST hl immigrato
agent.

THE BOOKOF THE FAIR"
The Best and Most Authentic Of
All the Worlds Fair Publica-

All the Worlds Fair Publlca-
tons.
"The Book of the Fair" issued in
parts, by the Bancroft Publishing Co.,
Auditorium building, Chicago, ILL.,, is the
truest and most complete work of the
kind yet attempted. Printed on the
finest quality OF paper, deliberately illus
trated and written in the best vein of
Hubert H. Bancroft, the historian, it is
at once Il souvenir and authentic history
OF the great Columbian Exposition COM
bined, and should find place in every
library. The following will give some
idea of the scope and breadth of the
work:
The plan OF our Book OF the Fair is to
present in type aud picture, in the highest
style of art, the entire Exposition within
reasonable space. TO do this we cannot
give in detail every exhibit, as this would
be no less wearisOme than uninstructive.
Where there are twenty or forty similar
displays of one industry, to present few
of the best, as examples OF the whole,
giving more or less extended mention of
the others, is obviously far better than
to give them all in DETAIL which latter
course would lead to ten or twenty bulky
volumes, which few would care to house
or even to examine. We hope to accom-
plish all within the limits of 1000 i'm
perial folio pages, - by Is inches. Pub
licatiOn in parts to begin with the open
ing of the Exposition, and continue at
about the rate of two parts a month
until the completion of the work in 30
parts of 80 pages each, price, 81 90
part.
Such publication has alone been made
approximately possible by the late.
marvellous developments in the printers
art Look at the books of our Centen-
NAL Exposition of 1876, or even those of
the Paris Exposition of 1889, and see
how crude, illogical, and coarsey
executed they are, as compared with the
artistic beauty of the best class of the
illustrated works of to-day. If instead
of our present photographer and photo
engraver we were forced to employ the
late processes of wood and steel, an
undertaking like that upon which we are
now engaged would be wholly out of the
| question. To catch the picture ere it
vanishes, a picture of the sum total of
civilizations achievements, and transfX
it in enduring forms upon the printed
page, are marvels of modern magic no
less grand and beneficial than any of the
miracles of the electrcan.-Ihe Book of
the Fair By Hubert Fl. Bancroft.

SUPERIOR Court.

Vance county Superior court is in
session this week, Hon. w. A. Hoke,
judge presiding. Solicitor J. E. Wood
ard is in his place as representative of
the State and business has been dis
patched in a speedy and systematic
manner. Judge Hoke has made a very
favorable impression upon our people
members of the bar, jurors, court
officers and spectators. His charge TO
the grand jury was the subject of high
praise by those who heard it. That
body has transacted considerable bust
ness, but will probably finish its work
to-day The cases tried so far have
been for petty larceny.
