Miss Daisy Edwards, n. c.; Mr.. and
Mrs. III. T.. Royal and family, New

mention. Crowds are coming in on
every train and it is beautiful sight
to see the hundreds Of guests strolling
among the broad verandas enjoying
the fine breeZes.
There has not been an uncomfort-
able da here this season, and light
covering at night is not at all disagree
able.
AS to the fishing we will have to
say the championship for the ladies
belong to Miss Bessie Scott and Miss
Albright of Graham. They, with Mr..
Scott, landed seventeen large drum,
averaging "a pounds each at the
breakwater today; besides large
number of speckle trout and bluefish.
There were seevral large catches of
mackerel among the guest, and Mr..
Harris, of Baltimore, landed 78
pound sea roe with rod and reel.
The booking at this we'll known re-
sort breaks all previous records for
August, and the indications are that
they will have large crowds through
out September. Everything here is at
its height and all are enjoying them
selves. Manager Gresham will have a
grand masquerade ball for Tuesday
night, and they expect record-break-
ing crowd in attendance, Just get on

Then Mr.. Lampkin adds:
1.-THE above is as incorrect as it is
misleading. There were 216 names
registered, of this number .126 votes
were cast for bonds, majority of
IS, the law requiring a majority OF
the registered votes to carry for bonds.
and while l am writing / Will say
that the validity of the election, or
the bonds. should they be issued, will
doubtless be contested because of ir-
regularities. Both poll holders, OF
judges, were enthusiastic bond men,
while two men. equally as pronounced
for bonds, acted as registrar, alter
nately OF course but one could
qualify. Many think that this of Il
self should invalidate the bonds, to
say nothing of illegal voting.

Greensboro, July THE first day
of July was the end of the first six
months of prohibition in Greensboro.
July 10th will be the first anniversary
of the election on the question of
whetner or not greensboro should
have prOhibitory law. TO those who
are interested in the matter the mum
Der of the arrests for all charges dur
ing the past six months and for the
same months last year may prove in
tereSting. There were during the first
six months of last year S17 arrests by
the police officers of the city. This
year there were only 6O7, or de-
crease of more than rs per cent.
The following table will show that
while the arrests for SOME offcn5cs
have decreased those for some other
causes notably retailing, have in
creased very much. Some of the
charges for which arrests were mate
were as follows:
The news & observer., 1905-07-08
Totals

Reference to the above Will show
that during the first six months OF
this year there were only about one
fourth as many arrests for drunken
ness as last year, and half as many
for disordcrly conduct. The arrests
for larceny are nearly equal. There
is a slight decrease in the number of
arrests for vagrancy and an increase
in the number for gambling. In the
number of arrests for miscellaneous
charges there is a decrease of about
30 per cent.
The table shows that while there
were only arrests for retailing in the
six months of 1904, there were 1913
in 190 or more than 13 times as
many. This is the only comparison
that is unfaVorable to the advocates
of prohibition. This is a wonderful
increase, however and shows the vigi-
lance of the police officers in running
down the places where whiskcy is
sold.
