Laurinburg. Now Dry Town, Will De-
eide Whether to Remain SO.
Laurinburg, n. c., May 5.-(SpeciaL)-
Two years ago our town was voted dry
by a majority Of 4S. According to the
law regulating the election, the town was
dry for at least two years to come, and
dry forever after that unless the wet ele-
ment should get petition signed by two
thirds of the voters of the town who
should petition the county commissioners
to order another election. At the meeting
Of the board yesterday the petition was
presented, and the election ordered to
take place the second Monday in June.
Both factions contested the question be-
fore the commissioners, but the board was
legally compelled to order the election.
AS to whether we should or should not
have licensed bars in the town Of Laurin-
burg is question on which public senti-
ment is divided. We have tried both and
there are lots Of our citizens who will
exert every effort to defeat the meas
ure in the approaching election, and Oh
the other hand there are others who view
the matter in quite a different light. AS
We said, public sentiment r. divided and
the election promises to be one Of unusual
interest.

MAJOR M'NEILL PRAISED.

Carthage Elects Good Officers and Goes
Forward on the Road to Greater Pro
gress.
Carthage, n. c.. May 5.-(SpeciaD-
The reelection of Mayor Mcneil yester-
day means stride in the direction Of
progress, that the majority of the citi-
zens Of Carthage, fully recognize.
At no time in the history of this town
has the election of a Mayor meant so
much for the prosperity of the place.
The gentlemen who have been elected to
serve as Town Commissioners are Mr..
w. w. Mills, Hon. w. j. Adams, Maj.
W. C.. Petty, DIR. G. w. Mcleod and
Mr.. NJ. b. jenkins. The majority of
these men are well known beyond the
confines of Moore county, having graced
higher positions, but are proud to serve
their townsmen and assist in pushing
Carthage to the front.
The election carries with it not only
the assurance to Mayor Mcneil that his
previous efforts for the upbuilding Of Car
thage have been appreciated by the bet
ter class of citizens, but also indorses
the plans he has laid out for the future
development of our town.
Mayor w. II. Mcneil is young man,
thoroughly saturated with the spirit of
modern progress, man of more than
ordinary attachments, indOmitable en-
ergy, coupled with executive ability of a
high order, and faculty for graspng
inteligently the salient points of the nu-
merOus questions that come before him
in his official capacity.
These characteristics of Mayor Nc
Neill are supplemented by a backbone
that the term rigid but family describes,
and to this fact may be attributed the
frantic efforts of his enemies to defeat
him. Threats of personal violence fail
ing to intimidate him while dealing JUS
tice to aw-breakers and evil-doers, they
sought to accomplish their ends by a
scheme that carried with it no serious
consequence, in the shape of facial disfig-
urement or bodily pains, for, while the
Mayor is a refined Christian gentleman,
the fact remains that his physical cOur-
age is on a par with its moral prototype.
Carthage has a bright future and the
citizens realize that to the present in
cumbent of the Mayors chair very large
share of credit should be awarded. 1t
was he who organized the Carthage I'm
provement Association" and, together
with few kindred spirits, kept it alive,
when Over-cautious and less sanguine in
dividuals predicted anything but success
The fact that his views are regarded IA
vorably by all the men of means and in
fluence who reside in Carthage. speaks
volumes in his IA ;or. This sacrifice of
personal convenience, readiness to fur
| ther the interests of his town, by contri-
buttons from his private purse, together
with an innate courtesy that impresses
the casual visitor or possible investor
with the fact that their cordial reception
by the Mayor is genuine. stamps him as
a fitting representative of the town.

DIR. HALE AT pinch Z RST.

On his return a fortnight since from
Pinehurst, \. c., where he had been
laofing for five or six weeks and inviting
his soul, DR.. Edward Everett Hale drop
ped in at the Critic office, on his way to
Boston. 1t was less than a week after
his seventy-ffth birthday but he looked
good for another quarter, at least He
talked with enthusiasm about the little
town where he had been resting with all
his might, and pictured it's growth under
the guiding hand Of a benefcent Yam
kee millionaire, as a sort Of Aladdin s
lamp affair-the pine dotted sands having
been converted in almost no time, from
their primeval condition into comforta-
BILE village, with modern drainage and
water supply, electricity, as well as pure
air on tap, a six-mile trolley line running
to the railway station, a casino, good
saddle horses and the best tennis and
croquet grounds the doctor has ever seen.

THE BLESSING OF STRONG
NERVES

Is recoverable. not by the use Of mineral
sedatives, but by a recourse to effectual
tonic treatment. Opiates and the like
should only be used as auxiliaries, and
then as sparingly as possible. Vigorous
nerves are quiet ones, and the most di-
rect way to render them so is to reinforce
the vital energies. That sterling invig-
GRANT, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, will

is besides a thorough medicinal stimulant,
infinitely purer than the raw exctants
Of commerce, which react injuriously

DIR. GREEN ON TOP.
His Enemies Could Make no Roadway
Against Him-Opposed to Bonds.

Weldon, n. c., May 5.-The municipal
election here was void Of interest, mas
much as there was only one ticket.
The people also voted on the question
of issuing bonds to build a bridge over
Roanoke river. The vote was q against
bonding to p for issuing bonds, and thus
the matter dies. The majority of the
business men of Weldon were opposed to
fastening $4,000 debt upon the town.
The County Commissioners yesterday
elected DR.. l. e. Green Superintendent Of
Health. DR.. Green is the Democratic
incumbent. When the new law was en-
acted placing the matter in the hands of
the County Commissioners, it was
thought by his opponents, who have tried
in vain to defeat him for the past sew
eral years, that they had him this time
sure, the board being composed of two
Republicans, one Populist and two Demo
Gratis, but when the vote was put the
Democrats voted for Green; one Republi-
can and the Populist voted for Furger-
son, and the other Republican, a colored
man, threw a bomb in THE camp and
said: II vote for Green" His name is
Calvin p. Anthony, and in casting his
vote for DIR. Green he did so because he
believed that he was the right man in the
right place.

SOMETHING TO DEPEND ON.

Mr.. James Jones, of the drug firm Of
Jones & Son, Cowden, Ill.,, in speaking
of DR.. Kings New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with
La Grippe, and her case grew so serious
that physicians at Cowden and Pana
could do nothing for her. 1t seemed to
develop into Hasty Consumption. Hav-
ing DR.. Kings New Discovery in store,
and selling lots of it, he took bottle
home, and to the surprise of all she
began to get better from the first dose,
and half dozen dollar bottles cured her
sound and well. DIR. Kings New Dis
covery for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds is guaranteed to do this good work.
Try it. Free triad bottles at any drug
store.

MINING NOTES.

A gentleman in from the Moose
Lake district during The week reports
nrite a stampede from the miNeS at
the lake to the Lew copper discoveries
about fOnr miles above. The develop
meuts on the first copper lead struck
show it to he extensive and rich and
all the country surrounding it is now
being staked and located. One day
this week Clerk and Recorder Arms
filed S24 worth OF location notices
from that section.
-Report comes from Silver Lake
that very rich streak CT ore has been
encountered IN the Gold Coin mine.
Samples of the ore have been assavcd
and It runs away up in the thousands
in gold.
Fay, Perkins 81 Long, who for some
time past have been developing a
mine in Myers gulch, about six miles
from Moose lake, have latoly struck a
big body Of ore which shows an aver
age of about $40 to the ton.
Barren & Casper. who have been
engaged building an arastra on Carpp
creek, one mile distant from Moose
lake, have Just completed its construc-
tion and it will be put in operation to-
day.
Dave Conkling and Mike Conroy
have lately struck the extension to the
Wilkesborough mine in the Bald Noun
tain district. The strike was made
during the past week and though little
little development has been made a
fine showing of ore is in sight. The
location of this property is about five
miles south from Moose lake.
Mel Linnehan is the fortunate
discoverer of the new copper find in
the Moose Lake district.
"A report has been in circulation
here during the past week to the effect
that the Granite and Bi-Metallic com
panies have had shipped from San
Francisco extensive machinery for use
at Flint Creek Falls in generating
power for the operation of their mill
| ing plants at Rnmsey and Clark. At
tachees of the companies in this place
say they know nothing of such inten
tion on the part of the companies, bu
as something must be done to hold tht
water right it is not unlikely tina
some means for utilizing the water is
being considered, bnt in what way ol
how extensive the machinery which il
to be used may be we are not in

is stationary. The machine just climbs
the cable, something on the same prin-
ciple that man would climb per-
pendicular rope. The machine can be
ma le to climb either up or down the
cable, and it is said that it is abso-
l1tcly safe. 1t will, of course, require
motive power to propel it, and it is
likely that in this instance a small
steam engine or electric power will he

The way that Mr.. Sto.llo happened

been set apart as treasury stock and
Il. 600 goes to the surveyors in payment
for the survey. The remainder of the
stock IS owned by Mr.. Stotko and his
partner. the inventor. A great deal of
the stock has been and is now being
SOLD aud work will be commenced at
once. It is estimated that the line will
cost not TO exceed %i5, 600, and that
the returns will pay an immense inter
est on the Investment, and judging
from the number Of steamers that will
make trips to Dyca one would think
! that almost any transportation enter
prise would pay almost anywhere on
the line.
The steamers Rosalio and Edith
have been chartered to make t'ips to
Dyea and Skagaway, leaving Seattle
July 81. The Rosalie Will carry goo
passengers with their freight, while
the Edith will carry IS head Of horses.

The City of Mexico left Seattle Sun
day morning for Dyea. On the Mexico
were 2S3 passengers, who left to seek
their fortunes in the Klondyke. The
advertised time Of sailing was
O'Clock, but it was considerably after
II before she left. Long before that
time the wharf was completely blocked
with people who were on hand to wit
ness the departure and the crowd spread
out along the wharves and docks to the
north for nearly mile. In addition
to her passengers the Mexico carried
some /, roo tons Of freight, consisting
almost entirely Of the outfits Of tn,

horses to be used in packing these sup
plies over the Chilcat Pass from Dyea
to Lake Linderman.
