THE GOOD ROADS ELECTION
The Proposition TO Issue $4,000 In
Bonds was Carried Yesterday-Very
Little Over 100 Votes Cast Against
1t Yet the STAY Away Vote Counted.

In accordance with an act Of the
last general assembly, an election was
held in New Hanover county yesterday
to vote on the proposition to issue $50
600 in bonds to be used to construct
and maintain a system of good roads
in the county.
The ballots were inscribed For Good
Roads," and Against Good Roads"
The election was very quiet and while
nearly everybody who went to the
polls voted for good roads," the ma
jority for the bon issue was not very
large, as according to the act. a ma
jority OF the registered vote had to be
cast for it. The voters who registered
and failed to vote had therefore to be
counted as if they had cast their votes
against good roads. No doubt a ma
jority of the stay Always would have
voted for good roads but they were
satisfied the election would be safe at
any ate. By their confidence they
might have defeated the proposition.

INDIGESTION.

Many things you fear abou your
stomach cannot be true. If o have
had indigestion or dyspepsia for years
it is naturol to believe that the stom-
ach itself is diseased. 1t is only the
functions Of the stomach hat are i'm
paired. This is the whole trouble in
a vast majority Of cases and the proof
can be had by trying DR.. Harter's Iron
Tonic.
Your stomach as many things to do
and failure to do any one of them
leads to imperfect digestion. The
stomach gets its nutriment and it's di-
gestive fluids from the blood. If the
blood is impure or lacks the right pro-
portion of strength producing iron, the
whole body suffers from a kind of
breaking down process.
To restore health you must start at
the source of life itself-the blood-and
though that vital fluid build UP the
stomach and other vital organs.
DR.. Harter's Iron Tonic has cured
thousands Of cases Of indigestion and
dyspepsia every year for the past for
ty-five years. 1t is the one remedy
you can take with certainty of imme-
date improvement and a sure cure.
1t is prepared with scientific
cy and many eminent physicians pre-
scribe it constantly. Faithful use Of
it will enable o to digest your food
perfectly as you ever have. Pre-
pared only by The DR.. Harter Medi-

Cotton

New York, Jun 19.-While there was
a fair movement in cotton values to-
day; business was exceptionally light
and the net result of fluctuations did
not materially favor either side. News
was conflicting and orders were not to
be depended Dor Traders were con-
tent to hold aloof for further incentive
from the south or abroad, meanwhile,
devoting attention to the quiet even
ing up of old obligations. The market
opened firm, unchanged to 3 points
higher. Soon after the call the trad
ing level was net 5 to 6 points higher,
on demand from shorts, light southern
and some buying for New England
spinners' accounts. Cables were sig
nally better than looked for, and for a
time sentiment rather favored a bull
market; but before fl o'clock a dis
patch from Fort Worth. announcing
that showers to fair rains mad fallen in
northern Texas this morning, under
mined several large amounts Of July
cotton and created distrust among
later month holders. Room bears
pounded the market severely during
the rest of the forenoon. From S.24
July broke to SIS, and from 1877 Octo-
Der declined to 7.31. During the noon
hour there was a slight tendency to-
ward reaction, but in the absence Of
important new business the improve
ment vas very small. For the rest of
the day h market worked within a
narrow rut n no concerted effort was
made to move prices either way. While
New Orleans was a heavy seller here
on the forenoon decline, the August
option in h south continued to hold
its abnormal position of 5 points above
August here. The market closed quiet
and steady, net unchanged to 5 points
lower.
