It is now no longer the guess
ton whether Goldsboro is to
have a Union Passenger Depot or
not: that question is settled, the
depot is to be. The only ques
ton at psesent-and for a brief
space before the Goldsboro pub
lie is WHERE shall it be located. If
the citizens of Goldsboro do not
care to avail themselves of the
option that is c~ourteously extend
ed them by the authorities behind
the movement, then those author
tiles will locate the depot per
mainly and proceed to build it. If
you do not care to get in the
band wagon Of progress, just stay
out-that's all. We go forward.
It will be distressing indeed to
t6ls community to learn of the
death Of Mrs. Andrew j. FalkeDer,
Of this city, which occurred This
morning at IL O'Clock, IN Peters,
burg, Va, where on Thursday
last she underwent an operation,
which at the time was not thought
to be serious, and her death is
therefore startling. Her devoted
husband a vita her throughout
the ordeal, and it was from him
the telegram came to his business
house here to-day announcing her
death. Three young sons survive
her, and to these and Mr.. Falkener
the tenderest sympathy of this
community goes out IN all full
ness. It is probable that the flu
neral will take p'ase in Peters,
burg. wh"re several of her sisters
reside. Al this hour the ARGUS is
rot In possession of any particu-
lars other than the simple an
nouncement Of her death. Later
Another telegram announces that
the funeral will take place to-
morrow after noon, at 4 o'clock,
in Petersburg.
The bloated school book trust
the most villainous of aIl-that
has SO long battened on the poor
people Of this State, and that has
at length oten ousted by The
Aycoc'x School Book bill, is now
seeking for yet another grip, and
the choicest cherry, by a bill ins
PRODUCED LIST week in the lower
house, exemptipg the Graded
Schools Of the State from the
provisions Of Senator Aycock's
bill. The Representative or Sana-
tor who votes for this nefarious
bill, thereby destroying it
sh uld pass-the most wholesome
working Of the Aycock law, will
