not a new idea. It has been mention ed and suggested for years. A number of times the project has been brought before the City Council in various ways. The ordinance proposed last night, however, is the first direct attempt that has been made to put the idea into execution in several years.
 While the ordinance, until acted upon by the Council, is valueless, from the expression of opinion among the mem- bers of the Council last. night. 1t would seem that the majority of them are in favor of the plan. Several were strong in their advocacy of the extension of the avenue.
 "There Is no doubt in my mind." said Alderman Lobman after the meeting, that the extension of Monroe Street to Commerce would result in the great est benefit to the city. It would not only increase the value of property on Monroe Street, but it would open up another main highway for retail dis trict. And I have small doubt that in a few years we should see it a four ishing business section.
 "The street now should be one of the handsomest in the city. It has width from curb to curb of one hundred feet. It is well paved. It has every facility for becoming one of the best streets of the city. were it not cut off from Com merce Street by the triangular block between Commerce and Court Streets. am heartily in favor of the ordinance"

BRING US YOUR TOBACCO.
GOIdSbOfO Has the Best Market and
Paws Satisfactory PFiCeS.s

Goldsboro's tobacco market is far
exceeding our most sanguine eXpecta-
tons. Although the crop is recognized
to be q short one, still we have had
good breaks at both our warehouses,
nearly every day since he market
opened.
Farmers are beginning to recognize
the fact hat GoldsboroIis paying higher
prices for the weed than other markets
and they are bringing their tobacco
here from far and near.
The general verdict among the farm
ers is that prices on the GoldsboroImar-
ket are exceptionally good. Our buy
ers seem to be very anxious to get the
tobacco and have ample facilities for
handling same, and we advise the far
mer with tobacco for sale, to bring his
tobacco here and he will never regret
it.
Everybody in Goldsboro and espe-
cially the merchants are exceedingly
anxious to see the farmers here and
extend to them q hearty welcome. Our
business men are glad to meet them on
the streets, shake their hands and do
some business with them.

STANCES In SOUTHERN BUSINESS.

The Wall Street Journal states the
conclusions Of a southern-born business
man of New York who recently visited
his old home after an absence from it of
twelve years. When he returned to
New York he presented this list of diff
%ferences between the present and twelve
years ago in his earlier home in the
south, as follows:
81. The locality, from being a com
paratively poor agricultural district
with little of the comforts of life, had
become a prosperous industrial section
in which the interdependenee between
farming and manufacturing has become
a sourse of mutual prosperity.
SO. Whereas formerly it was a d%itficuaI
matter to borrow money for use in
farming, manufacturing and merchand-
Using, the organization of banks in large
and small towns had resulted in in
creasing the b~ankinging to
such an extent as to really transform
the wholesale monetary character of
the community.
SO. Farming had changed from a
credit business to a cash business with
a surplus of cash deposited by the far
mer in the banks. Instead of his for
merIy purchasing supplies on time
from the merchant at a price from 20 to
100 per cent higher, he now bought for
cash and the merchants competed ac-
lively for his trade.
ii. The insurance exposures of the last
year or more have resulted in the or
ganization of a large numhe of local in
surance companies which We're doing a
very active business on the general
principle of encouraging home enter
pTiseses a the expense of foreign COM
panies whose headquarters were outside
Of the state"
This list Exchanges in the south is not
a bit overdrawn. Possibly in some
counties all four of the changes are not
prominently conspicuous, but it may
fairly be said that the south as q whole
has been reyolutionized in all four
particulars named. IT is indeed a mar
velous revolution. and it is largely the
work of the last ten years. In very
truth we have here at present a New
South that viii soon be equipped &c
stand in its own shoes and to handle
all its enterprises even to the building
Gifts own railroads.

J. Belts and other petitioners for an
election to establish prohibition in Raj
eigh, will appear before Judge j.. l..
Webb, who is now holding court here,

mand judgment that a writ of manda-
mus be issued to the Board of Alder
men of Raleigh commanding and order
ing an election sin accordance with
the prayer of the petitioners and the
statutory law OF the IState."
Considerable interest is attached to
the matter, as there is difference of
opinion as to the legal questions in
volved, and many Of the best lawyers
in Raleigh agree with the opinion Of
City Attorney w. B. Snow, who ad
vised against the granting of the petit
ton for an election.

Tied Brick to his Neck.

Tarboro, N. c., Aug. 27th-Early
Sunday morning Jesse Hudson, a col

dict that the negro deliberately cam
