Something new in the way of
working cattle was seen on the street
last week. There were three, all in
abreast, and one on one side of the
tongue and two on the other. They
were hitched with names, collars and
traces. The general opinion was that
it was "bully" team.
A great number of our people are
attending the Three Forks Associa-
ton at Zionville, which began Tues

for the accommodation of friends

A report is going the rounds
that Governor Fowle is trying to
step into the shoes of Senator
Vance. This, however, is only a
rumor which surprised .GoXernQp
Fowle very much. No, gentlemen,
"Old Zeb" will still be senator for
many years to come.
1t is estimated that the Farmers
Alliance controls 10000 votes in
North Carolina. This would be a
strong force to oppose were they to
make it political organization. We
are going to look with much interest
at the outcome of the Alliance, not
that we are doubtful whether they
can manage their business or not,
for we know the farmers of North
Carolina are men of brains as well
as sinews, but what we are watch
in is the way they are going to drive
out of politics worthless men. The
farmers own North Carolina in the
main; why not rule it?
