will not meet until the 18th. The
quarantine was raised Monday,
January 9th, on which date the
graded school opened and school
was resumed after about two
months suspension on account of
the fever 1t is very gratifying to
the entire community to know
that there is not a case of fever in
the town and that the scourge
has at last been stamped out.
There have been about fifty cases
in all with only one fatality, thus
showing the excellent treatment
by DR.. J. W. Peacock, the city
health officer, who has had entire
charge of the situation.
The corporation commission has
granted the Southern railway per-
mission to condemn property
along the route of the belt line
now in course of construction,
and as soon as matters can be ad-
justed the belt will be rushed to
completion along the entire three
mile route and will open up many
very desirable manufacturing
sites and a good water course that
will be available for the manu-
featuring plants along the line.
At the completion Of this line the
town will have some very attract
i've propositions to offer proposed
investors. Already the steel rails
have been laid on the belt line as
far as the Standard chair factory.

that the specific purpose of the
extra session is to change, modify,
straighten or repeal the railroad
passenger rate of 24 cents mile
passed at the last session of the
Legislature.
With the proclamation Cover
Inor Glenn issssA = letter TO the
|psopls Of the State, in which he
sets ont the specific act to be pre-
sented to the Legislature, saying
that the terms offered by him to
the railroads have been accepted
| by all but one, and this road (the
Atlantic Coast Line) accepts all
the. terms except an agreement for
an intra-State rate, saying it has
no power to do this, the Cover
nor adding "but doubtless circum-
stances will regulate this rate as
requested"
He states that that the Legis-
lature will be asked to increase
the p cent fiat rate to q cents,
with charge of Is cents extra
for passengers who fail to buy
tickets and to repeal the present
law and the penalties. If this is
done the railryads. agree to the
fiat q intra-State rate, and also
to issue 1000 mile books

ing five at 2 cents mile.

essee, North Carolina South Car.
olina, Alabama and Georgia, and
on other roads if they agree. All
books are to be good for one year
and to be redeemable. Governor
Glenn says that he considers those
terms as just and equitable and
that it is better for the state to
accept them and to advance the
rate from 24 to 81 cents as intra-
State mileage books at 2 cents are
obtained.
He states that it is agreed these
rates to prevail for one year and
is found Objectionable power is to
be given the State corporation
commission to modify them sub
ject to appeal, and that the rail-
roads agree to pay $17, 500 to-
wards the expense of convening
the Legislature and for court
costs.

It is very important and in fact
it is absolutely necessary to health
that we give relief to the stomach
promptly at the first signs of
trouble-which are belching of
gas, nausea, sour stomache, head
ache, irritably and nervousness.
These are warnings that the stom-
ach has been mistreated; it Is
demanding help from you. Take
something once in while; espe-
ciallY after meals; something like
KODOL For Dyspepsia and Indi-
gestion. It will enable your
stomach to do its work properly.

s1ATESVILLE AND IREDELL COUNTY,

Drunken Man Thinks He is in Salisbury But
SoberS When Told the Reverse is True.
|statesville Landmark. Jan ITO
John Goforth, the Newton po-
liceman who was so badly snot
by a burglar in Newton some
time ago, was walking around the
streets of Statesville yesterday.
He is improving rapidly.
On the site near the depot where
the old Statesville Flour Mill was
burned January 16, 1907, at a
property loss of $4,000, now
stands the new 100000 plant of
the Statesville Flour Mills Co.
The new plant, which is the larg-
est in the State and one of the
largest in the South, is equipped
with the most modern and up-to-
date machinery and can turn out
the best meal and flour it is pos
sible to produce from corn and
wheat.
A subscriber to The Landmark
who recalls "the big snow in 1857"
and also recalls time, prior to
that, when snow fell every Friday
night for seven consecutive weeks,
the fall amounting to y or s
inches each week, would like to
know the year of "the seven
SHOWS" He remembers the
SHOWS but can't recall the year.
The passenger service on the
Western road, since two passenger
trains were taken off, is about IS
unsatisfactory as it could we'll be.
No. II, the only west-bound train,
is from one to three hours late al
most daily and the cars are
crowded.
The trouble with the electric
current of the Southern Power
Company, which resulted in dalk-
ness IN Statesville Wednesday and
Thursday nights, was the falling
of a tree across the line near Great
Falls, S. G. The power for this
part of the country originates at
Great Falls but when the trouble
occurred search was made from
this end Of the line, hence the
delay in finding the cause.
A small store, the property of
J. J. Plott and located near his
home on the Buffalo Shoals road,
eight miles from town, was totally
destroyed by fire with it's contents,
about 8 o'clock Wednesday morn
ing. The loss is about 5000 with
no insurance. Between $50 or
$40 in cash had been left in the
money drawer in the store and it
is thought that the store was rob-
bed and then fired,
A gentleman from the North,
who arrived in Statesville from
Salisbury on No. II Monday morn
ing, was hardly capable of taking
care of himself when he reached
Hotel Iredell, but he was allowed
to 60 to the dining room. He be.
came 80 happy in the dining
room that the waitress called for
Proprietor Gilmer. Mr.. Gilmer
took his guest down to the hotel
office 60 quiet him, but for some
time the guest insisted that he
was in Salisbury and invited a
humber of gentlemen to 60 with
to saloon for a drink. Finally
Mr., Gilmer explained to the un-
fortunate that he was not in Sails
bury but that salisbury" was il
him. This seemed to bring the
hilarious gentleman to his senses
and he cooled down.
