The man from the city, whose buggy
had mired in a particularly bad piece
of road, was lashing his horse and
swearing in loud and reckless way.
He stopped a moment to address d
Quaker farmer who was driving care
fully around the mudhole.
''Why don't you keep the crust of the
earth in better condition in this neigh
borhood, old MANI" he asked.
Friend" answered the unruffied ag-
riculturist in drab, climbing leisurely
out of his wagon and coming to the
assistance of his fellow-trayeler, thee
ought to be grateful that the crust has
not given way and let thee down into
tha birthstone lake in the centerl"-

To Our Patrons.

IL you knew how unpleasant it is to
us to remind you, through these col
umns, of your Indebtedness to us, YOU
would save us the necessity of doing so
by prompt payment of your subscrip-
ton dues. If you will bear in mind
that it costs Us in the neighborhood of
$1,000 year to keep our presses in mo-
tion-that this sum represents fixed
charges, such as wages, material. taxes,
rent, etc, which must be met-you will
see at once that We must have money
and how unjust it is to keep us out of
what you owe. You can readily ascer-
tain how your subscription account
stands by simply noticing the date on
the margin of your paper, remember
ing that it shows the time to which you
have paid. Counting from that date,
at the rate of $50 year, you can find
out as easily as we can what you owe
and the amount, whatever it may be-
you can send us by hand, check, post
office order or letter. Now, can we he
asking too much if we ask each Of you
to pay us what you owe by the first of
the year so that all may make a start
on the new year with a clean balance
sheet ? Bear in mind that "he who
takes a paper, and pays the bill when
due, can. live in peace with God and
man, and with the printer, too

Our New Buildings


A fire in an old town is sometimes a
blessing in disguise. This promises to
be true of the destructive fire that con.
sumed a good portion of the business
part of Lewisburg last August. The
bank buildings, now being erected on
Main street, both of which are rap
idly approaching completion, would be
ornaments to 4 far more pretentlOus
town than ours. The building of the
Bank of Lewisburg, occupying the old
Lewisburg Hotel site, has frontage of
So feet, with handsome and commodi-
Gus store room, so feet deep, on either
side. In the center and elevated about
two and a-half feet above the ground
floors of the two large store rooms, IS
the banking room proper and another
admirably suited for a postotlice. The
upper-story of the entire building will
be laid off into offices for lawyers and
other business men. Of these offices
there will be possibly a dozen, most of
them large, well lighted and, in all re-
poses for which they are intended
This building will present very hand.

LIVE STOCK AND RACING ASSOCIA-
TIoN.-We are glad to know that a
scheme to utilize the facing grounds
just below Roncevcrte is taking shape
among our most prominent stock
raisers and farmers, and that the eff
forts now being made to organize and
carry out the project are almost certain
to succeed.
The idea is to fit up the grounds with
stalls, grand-stand, horticultural hall.
etc., improve and perfect the race track
and hold an annual eXhition and series
OF races during the early fall. Among
the gentlemen of this section taking an
active interest in the scheme we men,
ton Messrs. Bruce, j. ii. Crawford, S.
w. Anderson, Col. e.. S. PeytOn, s. t..
Mason, r. Ii. Boone, Alex. knight,
Harvey Handy, l.. S. Price, Col. a.
5. Fuller, Frazier Dickson, Newton
Dickson and Sam Workman of Green
brier, and Allen Caperton. G. {. Nick
ell and others of Monroe.
We can say the grounds indicated are
centrally located, easy of access. and
In every way capable of being made an
ideal spot for the purpose. Monroe
people are heartily in favor of the
scheme, and the Waterman says:
1t is almost uncomfortable that two
such splendid grazing counties as
Greenbrier and Monroe, which Nature
seems to have designed for the Paradise
of the horse ard other domestic ami
mails, should not support an association
of this sort. Certainly it would be of
great interest and value to breeders of
improved stock and would give an i'm
petus to the industry which would be
felt for good throughout our borders.
The racing grounds near Roncevorte
are centrally located and admirably
suited for the purpose in view. They
can be secured without difficulty and
the necessary equipment supplied at
trlfling cost.
We hope that the movement now
under way will be consummated. We
predict success for it in every way
