THE leading business men of
Chicago have paid a very hand
some compliment to President
Cleveland in rendering him a
public reception as an expression
of their endorsement of his firm
and faithful adherence to sound
business principles in his admin
istration. The gentlemen who
have joined in this tribute may
expect to be denounced as money
sharks and goldolators by the
silver monometallists, but they
are in a position to know what the
business interests of the country
demand and how they have been
protected by the Presidents
policy. The gable of cranks
receives no notice from such
men.

his letter Sunday morning, men
tions the presence in Raleigh of
prospecting hop growers from
New York State, who are con-
templating starting such an in
dustry in this State if they
can find suitable lands. The
ARGUS has frequently in the
past suggested that such
an industry could be made
to thrive and prove profitable
hereabouts. The lands and eli
mate Of this immediate section are
peculiarly suitable for growing
hops, and those gentlemen from
New York should be invited to
visit US. And right here comes
in with emphasis the need Of a
Chamber of Commerce" for
Goldsboro.
Mr.. W. r. Warters, master

R., spent yesterday in this city
en- route for Richmond, where he
goes to inspect and test the boil
ers of the two new locomotives

for the above road. When these
arrive the ''old mullet" will
be splendidly equipped. Pres
ident Chadwick has accom-
plished wonders for this road
during his six years of admins
tration; bringing it up from a
deep Indebtedness and impover-
ished and almost worthless roll
ing stock and road bed, to
a dividend paying basis-Where
it had never been beforehand
equipping it throughout abreast
of the best roads il the South.
