The Commissioners OF Washington,
ID. I. say: Negroes may enter the
restaurants OF the city but the owners
may charge prohibiitve prices" Why
whip the devil around the stump?
Be manly and adopt Jim Crow reg
ulations and give peace and quiet to
the National Capital city. Nothing
else will do it. The negro BARRIERS of
Washington won shave negroes, and
why should white people be made to
eat with them? The effort will prove
a dismal failure.-Farmville Iva. J

Crop Conditions Good.

Bearing on the crop conditions OF
the country special correspondent
of the Manufacturers Record wri-
ting from Chicago. says this:
Unlike last years. and to a de-
gree seldom approached, crops have
matured early and wheat and corn
throughout the grain belt are not
only made, but the quality is excep-
tionally good. While the yield will
generally be hardly above that oi
last year, and is described in gener-
alas an average crop as to quantity
weather conditions throughout the
grain belt generally have been favora-
BILE for the manufacturing and har-
vesting Of both wheat and corn. This
has resulted in early shipments, SO
that already a number of the rail-
roads report all uncommonly early
movement of grain, and Throughout
the grain belt generally the rule holds
good and an average yield, excellent
quality and an early marketing oi
the products. In the case OF some oil
the great grain-shipping railroads,
officials with whom Ihave talked are
almost iubilant over the situation.
With an eyerage yield and with an
exceptional good quality, and with
earl y marketing of wheat and corn,
it is pointed out that such highly
satisfactory conditions among the
farmers must inevitably result in the
circulation of vast sums of money
at an earlier period in the year than
usual, with a consequent stimulation
of business in every direction.

gle Club OF America, October 22nd,

gether with large number OF visi-
tors for the Fall and Winter season
will make this year certainly the
greatest in the history of the Neck

This fall will see gathered at the
Mecklenburg more prominent and
cultured people from every section of
the United States than any other re
sort ever entertained at one time
and there is reason to believe from
the unusally large number Ofreserva-
tions of rooms, that the Mecklenburg
will, during the fall and winter, sur
pass every record thus far establish
ed by any Southern resort for health
and pleasure. The fact has become
known through former guests, that
every comfort and luxury is afforded
at the Meckienburg, and this has es-
tablished it at the head of the list
of all-the- -year-rOund resorts in the
South. The service is SO perfect and
the rates are SO low for such service
that the Mecklenburg has larger
patronage than other health and
pleasure resorts.
The number of reservations from
North Carolina, thus far, for the fall
months is larger than ever before.
Many people from this State will go
to meet the members of the National
Beagle Club, and also to attend the
Virginia. Carolina Fox Hunters AS

Mecklenburg Hotel one OF the finest
nine hole golf curses in this cOun-
try, and it has been pronounced by

The course was recently laid out
by Americas greatest expert, Mr..
Robert Shields. of the New Haven
Country Club, New Haven, Conn,
who was brought to Chase City for
this purpose.
Mr. Shields is noted in this cOun-
try and in Europe for his ability in
this particular line, and he states
that nowhere has he seen on d nine
hole course such splendid natural
hazards and that he considers the
course very sporty.
The magnificent forty-acre lawn
extending on three sides of the hotel
is unusually well adapted forgolfand
the guests at this famous hotel find
it most convenient to step immedi-
ately on to the course. The sport
also provides much interest for the
guests who do not play golf as the
verandas give full view of the entire
course.
During the National Beagle Club
meeting and the Fox Hunters AS
sociation it is expected that there
will also be Golf tournament, this
to be arranged by guests who are in
the hotel ut that time and special

lanburg's new golf links.

from moral standpoint, no grand jury
has ever had a more wholesome effect
upon the community. 1t was rep

sincere in the discharge of their sworn
