floor. This treatment must have
been successful, as / see none now,

the managing editor, Mr.. Oates, who
spent several days here during the
Sam Jones meetings. He says:
"1n no city in North Carolina has
the Baptist cause grown as it has in
Winston. The people have been ready
to see the truth, and under wise lead
ership the bands have gone forward
from four Baptists in 1870 to 600 at
present This has been far greater
than the increase in population. Win
ston- Salem had in 1870 about $500
now about IL 900. The First Baptist
church was organized Sept. 22nd, 1871,
by Rev. +. M. Jordan, whose name is
a household word among US. He
preached the first sermon in the court

There is very little of interest to re-
port in connection with our leaf mark
ct last week. Receipts have been light,
accounted for by the very dry weather
prevailing and that the curing season
is now at it's height. Prices are well
sustained on desirable goods.
News from the surrounding country
is that the planters are not very sue
cessful with their cures. The trouble
appears to be in getting the right
color. The yield is a large one.
Our manufacturers hundred and
odd statesmen are sending in orders
right along, and the shipments are
