Or. George A. PhaIipsfn Bar Harbor Record. ]
Where the paine of the Orient grow In their
splendor;
BY the silence and SHOWS OF the far Arctic
shore;
Where the lands OF the South their sunny smiles
render;
By the far western sound of Paciac's dull
roar;
Down the past groove of time to the day when
no story
Was ever recorded by pencil or pen,
But the legend alone in those times gray and
hoary,
Kept the record alive OF the doings'of men;
Der the breadth of the world and the yistas of
ages.
The troteel and square OF the Mason has stood
For the honor of man and he wisdom of sages.
Nor never for wrong but ever for good
No priest with his creed, no church in Its glory,
Has ever been true to humanity's need
Like the one longest known In song and in
story,
Whose iropeI forever has squared to the deed.
In the cumbersome toll of humanity's history
No life-aiylns jewel of light go divine
Has lighted the path of lite measureless mystery
Like the message Of God that iiiumines our
shrine.

Another edifice which all our citi-
ize ms would like to see erected is new
high school building. The one now
in use is in every way undesirable.
1t is too small to accommodate even
those who now attend; and larger
building would attract still larger
number. Ii is unsanitary, unattrac-
tive, and wholly unsuited to the re-
quirements of high school of to- day.
Should a concerted movement be
made looking to the building OF new
high schoolhouse, we believe it would
have the hearty cooperation of the
city officials and the school officers.
And we have some reasonsfo for think
ing that, under the right conditions,
the expense-which would necessarily
be large would be met in part by
liberal individual contributions.

alarm sounded a few minutes after i
O'Clock, and the fire department re-
sponded promptly, but, as it turned out,
their services were not required. The
blaze was In the Kodick block, large
three-s.ory wooden building at the corner
OF Main and Cottage streets. An over
heated stove-pipe In the hail on the sec
ond floor caused the trouble.
When first seen the stove pipe was red
hot, and flames were issuing from g crack
In the elbow. The woodwork In the hall
caught fire, and In few minutes would
have proved serious.
w. M. Roberts and Fred Chandler were
on hand With couple OF hand chemical
fire-extinguishers,a and pat out the flames
before they had made much Roadway.

THE HENDERSON GOLD LEAF-T
ABOUT GOOD ROADS AGAIN.

To one who travels the public
roads of Vance county, nothing need
be said about their miserable condi-
tion and the need of a change for
their betterment. Until some other
method is adopted the present sys-
tenn of working the roads is the only
dependence. And if better attention
was given them better roads would
be the result. Are the overseers and
those living along these highways
and apon whom the duty of keeping
them up deyolves doing their duty
in the premises? The condition of
the roads at least is sufficient an
swer TO this question. Now is the
time to work them and put them in
good condition before the winter
season sets in. We all know what
the roads are during the winter even
under the most favorable conditions.
These suggestions are merely
thrown out in the interest of those
who have to travel over the roads
and haul heavy loads perhaps long
distances

CONVENTION AND SPEAKING.
Republicans of Vance County Hold
Their Convention and Nominate
Candidates for County Officers
rleetiug Addressed by Hon. II. A.
0udger and Prof. J. j. Britt.

The Republicans of Vance county
held their convention Saturday and
nominated candidates for the various
county officers as follows:
For Sheriff.. L. Currin.
For Register of Deeds-C. E. Fuller
For Treasurer. P. Satterwhite.
For Coroner-J. W. Coghill
For Suryeyor-GeOrge Houghtal-
ing.
For the Legislature-W. H. Jen-
kins.
This is a good ticket-the best the
Republicans have ever put out in
Vance county. They are men OF
honesty and integrity who command
the confidence and respect OF their
fellows whether agreeing with them
in politics or not.
1t will be noticed that no nomina-
ton was made for State Senator,
the field being left open to Mr.. A. {.
Zollicoffer, the Democratic candidate.
The Republicans may not have be-
lieved that they could beat him or
they may not desire to do so. At any
rate it is creditable to them and a
high tribute to Mr. Zollicoffer that
he has no opposition.
Hon. H. A. Gudger and Prof. J. J.
Britt addressed the convention. The
speeches were of "A high order and
freer from bitterness than most Re-

Britt especially was the subject OF

Beautiful Millinery.

The millinery opening at the George
Arose Company Tuesday and We'd
nesday was largely attended. They
made beautiful exhibition and the
goods we're much admired. The mil
linery department of course attract
ed.most attention. This class ofgoOds
naturally appeals most to the ladies,
and then too under the direction OF
Miss Stewart, the fashionable and
artistic manager, the greatest taste
and skill had been displayed. But
there was fine display throughout
the store and those who went were
richly repaid in the pretty things
seen.
