RE UNION.
The GoIdsboro Rifles Should Re
present GoIdsboro.

On the 30th of this month the
vast army of Veterans and a
large concourse of people of the
South will move on edmond,
where the annual re union OF the
Confederate Veterans will he held,
and where on July 2 the corne
stone of the monument to be
erected to the memory of the
President of the Confederacy,
Jefferson Davis, will be laid.
Among the vast throng that
will participate in those grand
ceremonies will be the crack
military organizations of the
South many of them sent there
without cost to any of the mem
bers. Goldsboro has it's military
company-the Goldsboro Rifles
AN organization that no doubt
has done more to perpetuate and
keep green the memory of the
brave men who fought for prin>
cipal, justice and their homes,
than any other organization of
the kind in the South. IT is, we
believe. the intention of the Rifles
to go to Richmond on this occa
sion, as they have always been
ready to make sacrifices to honor
the memory of a Confederate
soldier, and our people should
not fail to give them the encour-
agement that they so much de.
serve. They should go as the rep
rescItalives of our city.

EVIDENCE !!

Rheumacide, the great blood puri-
fer and rheumatic cure, has been tried
by the greatest of all courts, the pub
lie, and found guilty of curing rheu-
matism. We can't find room for the
testimony of but a small number of the
witnesses, but enough to convict.

Rheumacide cured me. Had rheuma-
tism for 20 years, was treated by New
York specialists, but found no perma-
nent cure until [ used Rheumacide."
Mr.. J. G. Perry, Elizabeth City, n.

| bottles of Rheumacide and is nearly
well. She had a bad attack of rheu-
matism, could not dress herself with
