''I understand, " said a friend to-
day, ''that the Chamber of Commerce
is going to have a meeting tonight
after taking a long vacation. This
organization could accomplish much
for Goldsboro if they would put forth
little effort. A passenger depot
could be secured for Goldsboro if the
Chamber of Commerce would go to
work for it. I do not know what
the meeting is for tonight, but I
hope some one wiz bring up the de-
pot question and make some effort to
secure one. We need it bad enough,
the Lord knows. %

This reporter was accosted by an
other citizen who said: "You re-
member what you had in the ARGUS
about Dock Smiths dog tackling a
"coon" on a bicycle. Well, 1 saw a
dog grab hold of the breeches leg of
a coon on bicycle this morning and
thought that | would take the dog to
Mr.. Smith and get the reward, but I
happened to remember that I did
not have a bear to try the dog with.
You know Mr.. Smith said his dog
was afraid of a bear, especially if the
animal should stand on his hind
legs.

NEWS AND VIEWS OF CUR
RENT INTEREST.
From Fridays Daily.

This is one of those March days in
which news is scarce and dust is
plentiful. A number of peoplewere
asking about the street sprinkler.
They wish to know why the city
bought such thing if it is not going
to be used. Last year some of the
merchants dubbed together and
hired driver and a team and paid
for the water. Why should they do
this is the question? Cannot the
city pay for sprinkling its own
streets? This is one of those days
when a sprinkler is needed.

s'I think your article on the loaf
ing population OF Goldsboro in the
ARGUS yesterday was very pertinent
and to the point" said citizen to
an ARGUS reporter to-day. "I am
needing hands right now," he said,
but you can't hire a single one or the
big bJlrly negroes that [ can point
out on the street at present. They
will neither work for love or money.
They stand around and blockade the
streets and sidewalks in the day time
and when night comes they prOWl
around and hunt fUr something to
eat. I have visited al the most i'm
portant towns and cities in the South
and l find more lOafing negroes
around the streets Of Goldsboro than
in any place that ] have visited. The
police in other cities will not even
allow them To stop on the street. If
they loaf they must keep going and
if they are seen often in any locality
they are arrested for vagrancy and
put on the chain gang. 1 wish the
Goldsboro police would only do like
