How about il!

The Concord Times says that sensible
editor gave the merchants Of his town the
following advice:
"Dont advertise. Buy a rubber stamp
and use it. 1t will make your letter
heads and wrappers look as though you
had all the trade you want. Again, if
you wish to boom your town, first starve
the editor out or compel him to dress so
that the rents and ravels of his coat and
trousers will play tune to the gentle
touch Of the northern breeze, and when he
is seen perambuiating around nelghboring
towns in quest of supportit will at once
DE recognized that he halls from a thor
oughly wide awake business point"

Of the Cincinnati NJ. E. Conference,
makes a good point when he says: We
have for years used Hoods Sarsaparilla
in our family of five, and find it fully
equeal to all that is claimed for it. Some
people are greatly prejudiced against
patent medicines. but how the patent
can hurt medicine and not q machine.

Money 10 Loan.
Through the efforts of Mr.. j. T. Pats
rick of the Southern immigration Bureau
an opportunity has been made by which
our citizens can borrow money on easy
terms for improving the town either by
erecting dwellings and stores or for aid
ing industrial enterprises. The Atlantic
Saving and Loan Association of Syracuse,
n. Y, has established Southern Agen-
cy at Southern Pines with George Allen
Of North Carolina as manager, and a
branch office can be placed mere if our
citizens desire it and will take the prop
er steps to have it done.
Do we need any more money in new
ENTERPRISES?
THE DEMOCRAT thinks we do.
Shall we have it?

Zeal Merit.

Is the characteristic Of Hoods Sarsapa :

the remarkable cures this medicine ac-

THE LOSS OF LIFE.

The loss of life has been remarkably
slight, considering the fearful damage
which was done to property in every
quarter Of the city. The total death
rate numbers six persons, three of
whom met their death in the city and
three on the Island.
Mary Barnwell, colored, was killed
Sunday afternoon on kramer's farm,
on Charleston Neck, near the Five mile
House. She was in two-story wooden
house with some other persons. When
the cyclone struck the place it was
| wrecked in an instance. A dash for
safety was made by everyone in the
building, and most ofthe eight persons
in the house escaped unharmed. Mary
Barnwell was crushed to death by the
falling chimney. Ella and William
Boble, both colored, were severely
cut and bruised about the head ard
face.
During the entire day this was be-
| lieved to be the only death which had
been occasioned by the storm in the
city. Late in the afternoon, however,

rumors which were afoat developed

Our Fine Building Material.

Capt. Gill, the marble man,
brought us in some specimens of
granite last Saturday which he
rates very highly as the best build
ing material in this country. 1t is
found in Cottonwood canyon, about
a mile below the Shissler & Bald
win horse ranch. It can be quar-
ried at slight expense and in in
exhaustible quantities, cuts readily
in all directions and to all sizes,
and is of very fine-grained, solid,
compact and durable texture, and
does not flake ON exposure to
weather. There is granite out
cropping in the canyon on the road
to the Circle S ranch, and it crops
out at intervals all the way along
the canyon, until in the neighbor-
hood of the old Henry Brown ranch
there are acres of it thrust up from
under the basaltic caprock which
ovcrlays this entire region. A sod
many good people, reading the
"Facts about Grangeville" in an
other column, have laughed and
said: parker is n thoroughbred
liar to talk of granite building ma
tcrial on Camas Prairie, when there
isn't any granite within 20 miles
of the town" Well, there is not
only granite, but marble, and not
only marble, but onyx; and all the
essentials for building and trim
ming elegant marble blocks of bust
ness houses exist right here, some
of them actually within hailing
distance of the town. At present
these resources may have no ac-
tual value, but when the boom
comes some outsider will step in
and reap fortune out of some OF
these now despised rock piles.

Will Henderson was in town Sun
day with pack animals which he
loaded with supplies for the party
now engaged in surveying the pub
lie lands on the middle fork of the
Clearwater. He informed us that
they would survey three miles in
the center of Township 80, r 8 +;
also the whole of the following TIPS:
TIP. 80, r 6, TIP. 33, r 9, TIP. 80.
RI, and TIP. 80, r 8. The middle
fork meanders pretty close to the
north line of these townships. The
party have struck some good quartz
and placer prospects, and they are
all sanguine that it will make a
wonderful country when settled up
and made accessible. Its altitude
is but little if any higher than that
of Camas Prairie, and the soil is
more or less thickly covered with
the finest belt of yellow pine in the
State. Unfortunately for the pros
pect of its speedy settlement the
State owns the contiguous town
ships through which this new coun-
TRIP must make it's outlet, and as
there can be neither settlers nor
roads until the State lands are sold
the development of that rich Sec
ton will be very slow.
Contrary to all expectations none
of the public lands south of the
base line in the foothills south OF
town has been nor will be surveyed
this year. The appropriation was
exhausted in surveying the White
Bird and south of Salmon river re-
gions and the township east of the
Jackson Bridge.
