tance from the Metropolis 1t is only
sixty miles from New York and seventy
from Philadelphia. distances covered by
the express trains in less than an hour
and p halfs time. making II virtually a
residential suburb OF both cities This
fact alone is enough to insure a future
greatness rivaling the historic old world

beautiful residences. luxuries hotels and
romantic Queen Anne cottages. all equip
ped with every modern convenience for
contributing to the physical comfort and
social well-being of the sojourners in

no swamps nor malaria, and the warm
air scented with the balsamic fragrance
OF the surrounding forest is exceptionally
refreshing after the trying conditions in

MR.. GAU[|N

Everything was Republican Ia Noon-
socket yesterday. Alfonso Gsulin. Jr-
was reelected to the mayoralty by a
greatly Increased plurality. Every mem
ber OF the Republican Assembly ticket
with one exception won out by safe plu-
rallty that cannot be changed by the ofn-
Cial recount. Representative Brindamour,
the only Democratic assembly nominee
elected according TO the wardens count
has plurality OF only l3 over John North,
his Republican opponent. and this may ~
changed by the official recount OF the as
sembly ballots today by the board or al
dermen.
The Republicans gained an alderman in

elected by big plurality, and also gained
a ward clerk In the second.

HE CAME EQUIPPED.

The raise of John Sharp Williams
to political prominence has been IN
of the striking incidents of modern
political history. His management
of his party'5 interests on the floor Of
the House Of Representatives since
he was elevated to leadership has
demonstrated he possesses a high or
der of statesman-hip. Encomiums
have been won wen from his politi-
cal enemies, while the democratic
party has been stimulated and in
spired by virtue Of his sagaciouS and
vigorous policy. The New York
World pays him this tribute in a
recent issue:
EIn the New York World last
week appears a remarkable interview
with a remarkable man. A Mis-
sissippi cotton planter, who had been
educated at three universities, two
American and one German, and who
was interested in sociology, %anthrop-
ology, history, philosophy and poetry,
would be rather interesting in any
case, and when that man happens to
be also the ablest parliamentary
leader of his generation, as we'll as
an orator, a humorist and a level
headed politician, what he says is
bound to be worth reading. That is
Jobp. Sbarn Williams
Unlike the great majority of men,
John Sharp Williams did not
rush headlong into public life. He
took his time. He trained his mind
to think. He studied books and
men. When he did offer for Office
he was equipped for any emergency.
His mind was matured. His habits
were settled. Ifhe has achieved un-
usual success it must be remembered
he made unusual preparations. He
has shown the value of fastening
slowly. He has won his way quick
ly because he did not enter the race
until his pace was swift.

Would be Il Paying Industry and
a Great Convenience for Our
People Generally.

Every year, after it is too late, our
people realize the mistake of not
not having a canning factory for
vegetables and fruit.
In the Northern States, thousands
of acres are planted in garden peas
for canning purposes. The peas are
sown broadcast, and are cut with a
moving machine. They are then
taken to the canning factory and a
threshing machine pulls off the peas
from the vines, separating the small
pods from the large ones.
This is an important item, as the
small peas are much superior in quail
ity and command higher prices.
The vines are used to feed cattle.
Thus not only r the farmers bene-
flied by having a market close at
hand, but the canning factory gives
employment to a large number of
| girls and other hands.
Quantities of tomatoes, corn, and
fruits Of various kinds would be
raised in the neighborhood of Colds
boro, if we only had a factory for
canning. Our truckers could dispose
of early vegetables and fruits, and
sell the remainder of the crop to the
factory.
Goldsboro owes largely her pros
perity to her factories, but we need
many o of various kinds. Fur
thermore, now is a good time to
start a canning factory. Our farm
ers are better off than they nave ever
been, and no doubt many of them
would take stock, thus becoming di-
rectly interested in the success OF
canning of fruits and vegetables. {.
Let us have a canning factory!

of Sacrifice and Toll. They
Are Public Benefactors.
A large number of physicians have
been passing through the city on
their return from the Medical Con-
~vention at Raleigh. Among them we
noticed a large number of country
physicians. And right here the
ARGUS desires to state that of all the
men within our borders, none are
| entitled to more consideration and
greater respect than the country doc
tors. In the first place, in almost
| every country neighborhood, you
will find a physician of skill and
ability. In fact, some Of the very
ablest and best equipped physicians
in North Carolina are to be found i'll
the rural districts. They remain in
the country, knowing that they could
make a great deal more money in
towns and cities, but they stay in
the country all the same, for the
simple reason that they love the
country and feel that they can do
more good there than in the cities
and towns.
The life Of a country doctor is one
of sacrifice and toll and poor pay,
that is poor pay in dollars and
cents. The average physician in the
rural districts works hard, barely
makes a living and dies poor. Blu
if service is to be taken as the stand
ard of success, and that is the only
true standard in this life, then the
country doctor is one of the mos
successful men in any walk Of life.
All honor to him. The ARGU!
loves to e the country physician.
take az outing in attending once
year their great convention. 1t doe
them great good and they deserve
all they get.
OF course, the ARGUS does no
mean in the least to speak dlsparag
ingly of the town and city physic
i. ians, whose noble work we know 0
= SO we'll, but it is known of all mel
that they are better paid, and do no
have to undergo the arduous toll O
a country practice over rough road
and covering many miles of terri
tory.

THE A. M. SHRAGO co.

A few years ago a young man, only
the sea, came to GoldsbOrO and
opened a small retail store, with a
stock of goods worth only a few hum
dred dollars.
In a quiet way, with no flourish
of trumphets, Mr.. A. NJ. Shrago gave
careful study and undivided atten-
ton to his business, keeping every
promise to his customers, dealing
hOnorably with all men, and year
by year his business grew and pros
pered until in place of a small stock
worth a few hundred dollars, his
store and annex contained many
thousand dollars worth of goods.
Instead Of buying in small lots,
Mr.. Shrago for several years has
been going many times a year to the
Northern markets, being in touch
with the great centres of the whole
sale trade.
About two years ago he went into
the wholesale business, selling dry
goods, notions, boots and shoes,
Most gratifying success has crowned
his efforts.
In order to further advance anC
perpetuate the business, Mr.. Shragc
has associated some others with him
and the A. NJ. Shrago Company ha.
been incorporated under the LaW'
of North Carolina, with a paid III
capital of $25, 600, with the privIleg'
to increase same to 500, 600.
Mr.. Sh1ago already had statesmen
on the road, but this number will b
increased. We have no doubt tina
the A. M. Shrago Company will b
a great success

Letter to Asher Edwards.
Goldsboro, n. c..

Dear Sir: The easiest business in
this world is dry-goods; the reason
is: your customers want your stuff as
much as you want to sell it; they
come-in; you show it and sell it.
That's the whole business, except
your buying the goods.
Devoe comes next. 1t saves money,
and people like money. They like
somebody el5e's more their own; they
like to make il more than to save it;
they like to keep it perhaps as well
as to make it.
Buildings rundown fast, without
paint; poor paint is the same. Devoe
is the means of stopping that leak; a
big one. All we've got to do, to sell
Devoe, is to show that a man saves
money by using it.
E. D. Jewell, Cory, Pa, painted
his house 5 years ago with a mixed
paint; IA gallons. Last spring he
painted Devoe; 10 gallons. Saved
$15 TO $40.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvoE s. Co.
