this county this explanation, [ trust in the
interest of fair play and justice you will
publish t.
While it is true that these raids result
ed in breaking up some six or eight dis
tiller,es, much to the qualification of the
people adjacent to the territory raided, 1t
is but fair to the county at large to state
that only a small scope Of two districts
lying on either side of Roanoke river
and adjoining the North Carolina line
were involved. This territory is made up
in the main of large river farms, most
of which were occupied by tenant farm
ers and upon which the landlords seldom
went, except at harvest time, thus max
ing this particular locality most favorable
spot for carrying on this business.
While we are aware that the misconduct
of one member of a family reflects upon
the whole, yet we do enter our solemn
protest against being presented to the
world a large as a section living in disre-
gard of law and order.
We claim. il slavery did no Off er good.
it tended to build up in the southside
counties CT Virginia and the northern
tier of counties in North Carolina, where
it mostly abounded. a civilization second
to none in this southland of ours.

PROSPERITY IS
HERE TO- STAY
Bank President TiItord Discusses the
Financial and Trade
Conditions.
WILD SPECULATION is
A THING OF THE PAST
BY FRANK TILFORD,
President OF the Bank of New Amsterdam.
(Copyright.)

(COpyrlght.1
NEW YORK, Dec S.--The improved
financial and trade conditions TINT set in
Immediately after the presidential election
still continue, thus proving that they rest
on u solid basis. Sound investments OF
all kinds are eagerly sought, and the tone
in business circles is strong and puoyant.
There can be no question that the coun-
try has entered upon an era OF prosperity
that will proDaoiy prove TO be without
precedent in history, and which will pace
ttle United States a t the head of the ma
tons of the world. In every quarter the
outlook is bright, new enterprises are De-
ing started; old ones are making enlarge
mentS and, what IS especially Srntll!
ing, competition appears to be restrained
within safe and prudent limits. The banks
rnouestionabiy have a great deal to do
with the maintenance Of sound trade con-
dittons There was u time when accom-
mediation was easily obtained for almost
any scheme however chimerical. 1t was
the era of financial and industrial buo-
bles Of an kinds. Railroads were built IN
places where coWpaths were amply SUI
1icient; real estate was improved ana oe-
yeloped far In advance of population; holes
were dug in the ground under the de1-
sion that they were mines, nnd so on in
all other departments.
UNUSUAL PROSPERITY
All this reckieSSnesS, productive OF con-
yulsions and panics, has passed away.
Missionaries no longer have access to bank
offices and assistance cannot be obtnined
for any enterprise which does not carry
with it absolute security. This banking
conservatism has revolutionizcd, in
sense. the whole field of business; has
nrodl1ced a stability in the industrial world
sudl as we have never had at any PERIOD
in our history as a nation.
These are the foundations on which
trade and finance now rest, and while
thew last it is absolutely certnin that our
nroaress viii be unchecked. The natural
rasources Of the country are practically
ine,hanstb!e, while our manufacturing
industries have reached that point of de-
ve,onment when other nations will prnc-
ticaljy he put out of competition with. US.
1>hjs will give us the markets of the world
aud when we have them, no limit, even
IN i'm, eination. can be set to our pros
nerity as a people.
i0- NO SETBACK.
Asain. it should be remembered as a
,otsnt factor in the situation that, for the
ti,.st time in years, business men see Con-
aresr assemble without the least appre-
lansion The financial question was set
tIaa nv the election. for the regulation
~ currency. whicl must be attended to.
10 mere detail. AS to the tariff, there
-, mo no change in it of the least mo-
mont during the next four years. Free
t,ade agitation is dead, and with it nj the
,,ar,ic;ous uncertainty that limited pro-
6,rctinn and killed enterprise. There is no
ssanser of a setback to our prosperity. We
must continue to grow and prosper.
