RIG RAILROAD DEAL

The following will be read with in
terest and we give it for what it is
worth, not knowing how for the state
ments are true. But that at least a
part of it can be relied on We have no
doubt. Something Of the kind is evil
IDENTIFY going on but to what extent
cannot be determined just yet with
anything like certainty. We copy
from the Wilmington Messenger.
From persons interested, il Is learn
ed that an extremely important railway
deal IS being arranged between the
Baltimore and Ohio railway and the
Seaboard All Line by which each at
tains an object-the Seaboard TO get
into New York, which it will do over
the Baltimore and Ohio tracks, while
the latter will enter the South. using
as much as it desires of the SeabOard S
tracks.
1t is also learned that the Baltimore
and Ohio is at the back of the build
ing Of the short line from Richmond
TO Ridgeway, which will reduce the
distance between Raleigh and Rich
mond by forty miles. Under tht. ar
rangement made, these roads will
Jointly use this short line and also the
Seaboard tracks from Ridgeway to
Hamlet The Baltimore and Ohio
will purchase the Palmetto railway,
from Hamlet 10 Cheraw, and from
the latter place will build To Columbia
or Augusta, most probably TO Colum
bia, as there it will connect with the
Southb )und railway. II has propos-
ais from two or three roads at Column
bia.
In case the BaltImOre and OHIO de
| sres 1t can use the SeabOard's tracks
into Atlanta, but the construction OF
the line above described seems to be
| agreed on. The Baltimore and Ohio
has secured a charter for a line south
| from Cheraw.
An official Of The Baltimore and
Ohlo has been here, IN cognito and
t has also been over the entire prop 'Sed
line.
The link between Ridgeway and
Richmond can quickly be completed
About half is graded and the stone
piers across the Roanoke are built
Under arrangements made both ths
Baltimore and Ohio and the SeaboarC
Air Line can run solid trains between
New York and points in the far South
via Raleigh.
The Baltimore and Ohio tried some
years ago TO get into the South via the
Roanoke and Southern, but this plar
failed. The new movemen, is of grea
importance and interest.

\ COMPETITIVE, AGE,

This is an age in which competition
in all kinds of business is SO keen, that
the ordinary merchant cannot keep in
the rush, as before he fully compre-
hends the situation he left far in the
rear Of the commercial army of prog
ress.
Just now this competition was never
SO sharp. No town is too small or too
far from the lines of railroad or steam
boat travel. They are all visited by
the hustling, pushing drummer who
has goods to sell at prices which are
usually below those offered at nearby
cities. To-day no merchant can re-
main passive factor, relying upon
business to come to him without an
active solicitation upon his part.
The retail merchant must spend
thought and money in attracting trade
to his store. He must advertise &C
lively and keep himself before his
community. He must buy cheap and
be satisfied with 4 moderate profit
Henderson merchants should be
seeking business and acquaintance to
a greater extent than they are doing.
The merchants of other places are &C
tive. Our business men must be up
and doing-drawing trade from this
whole section or suffer the conse-
quences. They can do it, and sh ould
do it, and not let others come in and
take the business which can be made
and kept theirs by we'll directed eff
forts.
1t does no good to complain about
this trade competitor, the only way for
any merchant to do is to get into the
commercial push himself and by his
brain and energy successfully hold his
own. There is no time 10 lose in this,
for the tide is running swiftly and to
wait for cessation in this wild whirl
of competition means loss. Hence
forth there is to be no sitting down
waiting for business to come to a mer-
chant. Business to day has to be
SOUGHT with Sk i'll and 5isrretiop
This can be done, and it ought not
10 be neglected. Trade exists, there
fore try and get your part of it. This
can be be done by judicious newspa-
per ad rertising.
