 0YERESTIMATED

A letter to the Log Cabin Demo- crat from Sam w Shock, the Enola miller and ginner, states that the cot ton crop in his section has been great ly overestimated. Ut is true We have a very fine stalk" MT. Shock writes, but if the farmers will closely ex- anime it, they will find that it will not compare with last years cotton crop" MT.

 LIVERY CARRIERS.

Mrs. Emma R.

 Twenty-one applicants took the ex- animation, which was conducted this afternoon in the grand jury room at the courthouse, by Assistant Post master c. V. Hinkle. There are three appointments to be made to serve an equal number of new routes which will begin operation September 1. The new routes are No. from Conway. No. ? from Damascus and No. from Mayfower.

 J. w. Henry, John M. Thompson. William N. King, Elijah P. Lieblong, Woot Hartley, Herbert B. Simmons and John M. Garrett, Conway.
 Mrs. Emma R. Mcintyre, John W. Boydston, Walter J. Boydston, James l.. Boydston, Lock c. Sevier, Edgar N. Martin, Patrick H. Dyke, May flower.

THAT'S THE REASON.

The England Democrat says in the 'ourse of an attack on the governor and the Turncr-J acobson revenue act shat the business governor said he had but one qualifcation-tha he was l business man-and yet he admits that he cannot longer finance the state under the old revenue law.
 The reason Governor Donaghey ad- nits that the state must have a new revenue law, or at least more revenue, is that he is business man. Any business man that was made governor would say the same thing Gazette.

 With the additional six-ton plant to De installed by R. B. McCulloch, the two ice factories here will have to- tai capacity of P tons per day, which is probably considerably more than enough to supply the local demand.

SALOON LICENSE
IS TRANSFERRED
EUGENE ENGELkI<G AUTHOR
IXE.D TO OPERATE on WEST
BROAD STREET.

Judge Witt entered an order in the
Hastings Court Wednesday directing
Eugene Engelking to transfer hts Ii
quor business from 70l Hospital
street to 400 West Broad street
This action puts n temporary quiet
Us at least upon the question as TO
where Engelking should carry on his
business. First. objection arose to
the Hospital street site because Of it's
proximity To the Richmond Locomo~
tive Works. Engelking then turned
his attention TO a location on West
Broad street and found his path
strewn with anything hat a bed OF
roses. lie finally picked out 70. 400
West Broad only to be confronted
with opposition from persons in that
community.
II appears, though. that this oppo-
siuon did not materialize to any great
extent, AT any rate. it did not pre-
vent the court from entering the fore
going order,
some effort VAS made to have the
saloon remain an Hospital street. on
the ground that vacation of that site
would work n hardship on a poor
widow who owns the property.
