Goldsboro weekly argus. [volume] (Goldsboro, N.C.) 1885-1909, 1895-03-28

QuentIy we are QnaOle TO give
any figures. THE ARGUS cor
daily joins his numerous friends
in wishing him many happy re
turns of the day.
THE ARGUS man in his rounds
of the city yesterday found quite
an item Of interest and city pride
at the machinery works of Dewey
Brothers. It is a locomotive
they are building for hauling logs
for a big Clinton saw mill, and
it's gearing is a new experiment
devised by Mr.. Chas. Dewey, the
senior member Of the firm, which
does away with a great deal Of
the intricate steam valve work
ings and rods: and the cylinder
also has some new features, all O.
which under test have proved
highly satisfactory and abso
lutely perfect in their workings
Mr.. Dewey will apply for a patent
and it is certain that his inven
ton will create quite a revolu
ton in locomotive building.
The tenderest sympathy of the
entire community goes out to Mr.
and Mrs. Arnold Borden in the
death of their infant son anG
only boy. Hemphill, 15-months
old, which occurred early Mon
day morning at their home il
this city. after an illness OF sew.
eral weeks. The funeral was hello
from their home Tuesday morn
ing at 1920 o'clock. 1T is vel
with the child"-to have passed
thus from the tenderest care Of
fond parents into the arms of 6
loving Saviour who said, Suffer
little children to come into me
and forbid them not, for of such
in the Kingdom of Heaven
May this blessed assurance com
fort the bereaved parents in
their deep sorrow this morning
and may the fullest JUNCTION OF
His love who never changes
compensate them for their If
reparable loss,
WE would that the farmers
become impressed with the idea
that there is strength in a non
political farmers organization.
and we believe they n rapidly
becoming SO impressed. When the
burden of the increased taxes i'm
posed by the recent Rep-Pop flu
sion Legislature, that was the out
come of the insidious political
designs conceived by long-headed
Republicans and infused into the
Farmers Alliance in secret, come
to be realized by the farmeas at
their next tax-paying time, then
will they realize indeed how tEey
have been hoodwinked and duped.
Maythey in those dire experiences
that are in store for them turn
with contrite hearts to the foun-
tain of Democracy indebted,
where alone their desired relief is
to be obtained and where their
future safety resides.
THE sad news reached the city

Hardy, the venerable mother
of our esteemed young friend

Hardy, which occurred at Johns
Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore,

man., a loving wife, a fon6
mother, a true friend. She leaves

The traditional foreign policy
of the United States, formuiatet
