1t is claimed that the prairie dog will
soon become extinct. The inroads oil
civilization are too much for them and
they are being "driven to their holes" in
deadly rather than literal sense. The
industrial forces are leagued against the
little animal and as he contributes largely
to making desert out of lands which
could be used for grazing purposes the
government has prescribed a formula
that is proving his death-knell. In the
language of Artemus Ward the "Amoosin'
little cuss" will soon be thing of the
past.

1t is said that the delegates to the
county convention of the fusion forces,
which will be held on Saturday, will en-
dorse the administration of Gov. John
K. Rogers and send delegation to the
state convention favorable to his renom-
ination. THIS is as it should be. His
administration, while not fiawless, has
been clean, conservative and able. II
has been commended by the better ele-
ments OF all the parties as far in advance

Col. j. A. Taggard has been renomina-
ted for justice of the peace, and Robert
Crory nominated to succeed w l. Luce
A. F. Smelling has announced bis
candidacy for the office OF county clerk
subject to the decision of the fusion
forces at the convention on Saturday.
Joseph Stephenson is willing to ac-
cept the nomination on the dem ocratic

The primaries of the democratic party
were held on Saturday night of last
week and in the city were principally
notable for the strength developed by
Marshal Grant in his candidacy for the
Office Of sheriff. His strength is not we'll
defined in the country and the friends OF
A. j. Shaw make strong claims, since
the holding of the populist and silver
republican primaries on Tuesday, that
their candidate is we'll in the lead. The
only other co ntest that has appeared on
the surface is over the prosecuting attor-
neyship between Judge PEBBLE and I. M.
Krutz. Each makes claim of the dele
cation and it will probably take a ballot
to decide. A unanimity of feeling pre-.
walls in favor Of A. ]. Spawn for repre-
sentative and for sending Rogers dele

A number of the delegates returned
from the republican state convention on

GOLDSBORO STEAM LAUNDRY
An Enterprise With Every Modem Equip
ment, aud kquaI 10 the fernando CT a
Great Ci'y.

0feA1 C1y"
One Of the pressing needs Of
Goldsboro for months and years
has been a modern steam laundry,
where our citizens = individuals
and households, could have their
washing done promptly, safely,
hygienically and with unfailing
certainty.
Perhaps nothing has caused the
house keepers in particular and
individuals generally more incon-
venience and harassment in
Goldsboro for years than the
matter of getting their washing
done. Often it has been a per-
picking question to get it done at
all-and always, to get it done
properly.
All this, however, is now happi-
ly religated to the past, and with
the spirit of progress that is
pushing Goldsboro SO steadily
and surely to the front in all mod
ern city appurtenancies, we chron-
|icle with pride that, to-day, the
Goldsboro Steam Laundry opens
Iup to the patronage of the city
one of the best equipped plants
in the State, with every modern
convenience, and under such com
potent management as to guaran-
tee the highest satisfaction to all
who favor it with their patronage
and this should, really, include
the entire patronage of the city.
Not only because it does it's work
we'll, quickly, safely and with ab-
%solute hygienic cleanliness; but
because the public spirit of its
promoters in spending their mon
ely so lavishly in establishing il
deserves to be thus rewarded.
The ARGUS wishes the fullest
measure of patronage and pros
perity to the Goldsboro Steam
Laundry.
