GO TO THE FAIR.

There is not citizen OF Raleigh VINO
does not acknowledge the benefits that
come to Raleigh through the annual
gathering Of the people at the State
Fairs. In every way it is an institution
of great value to Raleigh-its business
and social life-and it behooves the peo-
ple of the city to rally to it and to hold
M the hands of the patriotic manage
ment.
The Rad weather has kept away thou
sands or visitors who had planned to
be with us this year. This threatens
deficit in the Fairs finances through no
fault of the management. Ii the wealth
er is good, great crowds will come from
. distance to-day and tomorrow But,
whether the rain keeps away the visi-
tors from a distance or not, it ought not
to keep away a single citizen Of Raleigh
The trains and the street cars land visi-
tors right at the gates, and the exhibits
In the great building are so many and so
varied that it will require whole day
to see them.
There are 10000 people in Raleigh.
At least 5000 Of them ought to go to
the Fair to-day and as many to-nlor-
row. Let Raleigh turn out en- masse
to the excellent Fair to-day.

THE ROAD CONGRESS.

The Road Congress held In the Court
House last night started out wisely when
Il elected Hon. 8. B. Alexander, of
0ecklenburg county, President. Capt.
Alexander may be be truly called the
father Of the good roads movement of
the State. for it was his bill that FIRST
passed the Legislature providing the
methods by which Mecklenburg was the
pioneer in road building in the State.
The action of last nights Congress
will be most salutary. The time has come
when no section Of the State can afford
to put up with the sort of roads our
fathers and grandfathers have travelled
10 carry their crops to market. Good
roads are cheaper than poor roads in the
long run, and wherever the people of
any county emancipate themselves from
the old slip-shod methods nothing can
>rer induce them to surrender the sue
eessful methods now employed in twenty
counties in North Carolina.
We are going forward in road build
ing. Last year more than one hundred
dollars was collected by taxation for
working the public roads. Much Of that,
says Professor Holmes, was not wisely
expended because we have few trained
road builders.
The utilization OF convicts in making
public roads is the method that will solve
more than one problem. There is no
work they can be set to do that will tell
% much for the substantial prosperity OF
the State. none where there will be less
objection to their employment, and none
that will meet with more universal en-
dorsement. For many years they were
EMPLOYED to build railroads through the
mountains, so as to open up all sections
of the State to railroad transportation
The further building Of railroads may
be left to private capital. The State and
the counties must make good public roads
or we will never have them. The county
that utilizes it's convicts for making gooc
public roads will be the county that viii
gain most for its own population and bt
most inviting to immigrants.
The good results Of the Road Con
xress last night will be felt Throughout
the State. Let the progressive citizens
of every section agitate the need OF bet
ter roads and show that it is practicable
to get them. Let the Agricultural DE
partment use every effort to give accu
rate information and to stimulate inter
est Let the schools and colleges shov
the Importance Of the subject, and let u
inaugurate a widespread and deep
seated genuine revival that will be

New York, Jan. 25.--Spot cotton declined 19S for spinning; 500 bales were delivered on contract
 The speculation today was devoid Of in- terestins developments. The trading was in the main of local scalping character and the, fluctuations in prices were confined within narrow limits. Liverpool was lower and prices here declined in sympathy at the opening. After the first transactions, how ever the tone became stronger in the ab- sence of any decided selling pressure and prices slowly advanced. Local shorts cov- cred and Liverpool bought here on a mod crate scale. Before the close, however. the prices weakened again and slowly re- ceded, the market closing steady at a slight net decline for the day. The receipts were free and the New Orleans estimate for to- morrow was also lbraI but the worst feat ure was the stagration of the speculation.

Chicago Change.


 Chicago. Jan.. 25.-The bull enthusiasm which displayed some energy was all gone from wheat today. At the opening prices showed a slightly firmer feeling, but soon gave place to weakness and discouraged holders soon turned sellers. The govern ment report was issued this afternoon caus. ing some hesitation, the possibility that 1t might be a bull help tending to restrain short sellers May wheat opened at soA mSOssc and 79AQ793sc, closing at 7s1fg7Seec- 1eM%c under Saturday. Cash wheat was easy and 1sc lower.
 Corn--A fairly steady opening in corn was noted There was the usual indifference to trade exhibited, however, and prices soon dropped lower in sympathy with wheat. May corn opened at 24c, sold at NQ2f1sc and 2Ssc, closing at the inside-iec under Saturday. Cash corn was firm and Ac higher closing nominally easy with futures.
 Oats drifted in the direction taken by wheat. Occasional active moments were seen, but the business was mainly local. Cash oats were steady. May oats closed shade lower than Saturday.
 Provisions-A stronger hog market con- tributed irmneSS at the opening, but the improvement was not permanent the weak ness of wheat eventually exerting influence and causing an easier feeling. At the close moderate covering by shorts steadied the market. May pork closed 21Rc higher, May lard and ribs each shade lower.
 Leading futures ranged as fo!lows'
