THE VANCE MONUMENT.
An Expression of Mrs. Vance's Present
Wishes in the Matter-
It is generally known that it
was Mrs. Vance's earnest desire
that the the erection
of a memorial to the late Senator
by the people's contributions
should primarily, and at last, take
the form of a monument over his
grave in the at
ville. But, before her wishes
were known the movement for a
statue at tho capitol Raleigh
had progressed so far that it was
deemed inexpedient to check or
divert this expression of the
people's feeling the Ashe-
ville idea was held in abeyance.
A very simple solution of the
matter however, from the
most appropriate of
a soldier who had known Vance
in tho battle, and afterwards en-
joyed the fruits of his wise civil
administration in the stress of

At a recent meeting of tho

resolution which is thus recorded

It is no doubt that Mr. At-

Senator Hill, in all, voted
against it, as also did three
lists. That vote removed the last
vestige of doubt about the pas
sage of the bill, and leaves Re-
publican without a
leg to stand on, the Republicans
having claimed that they were
justified in using the tactics they
did by Democratic opposition to
the bill. They will now be given
a last chance to agree upon a
time to take the final vote Should
refuse the bill will be forced
to a vote. There is a feeling of
relief to know that the end is in

of whom he was proud to be one,
he introduced an amended bill,

The King's Daughters.
The visit of Mrs- I. C of
New York, Corresponding
of the Central Council of the
King's Daughters and Sons, and
the series of meetings she held
in Greenville, has caused a great
revival of interest in the work of
the circles here. The first meet-
was held in the Presbyterian
church Friday afternoon and
that night Mrs. Davis delivered
an address to a large audience in
the Opera House. after-
noon another meeting was held
in the Presbyterian church- Sun-
day morning she delivered an
other address at the close of the
Children's Day exercises in the
Opera House, and in the after-
noon a consecration meeting was
held in the Episcopal church.
Cur people were charmed with
Mrs. Davis and her visit here
will result in much good. She
was the guest of Mrs. J. B. Cherry
while in Greenville.
The Magistrates at the meeting
next Monday will have to elect a
Board of County
and Board of Education. We do
not know how many of the present
incumbents will stand for
but Pitt county has good
boards, both Commissioners and
Educations.
The Methodist Sunday School
had Children's Day exercises in
the Opera House Sunday morn-
in the presence of a large
congregation. Mrs. I. C. Davis,
of New York, presided over the
meeting and at the close of the
interesting made a
delightful half hour's talk.
So much important work to be
done at the meeting of the
of the Peace next Monday
levying electing a Board
of County Commissioners, a
Board of Education and a Super
of Public Instruction
ought to bring every Magistrate
in the county to the meeting.
Mr. B. H- Hearne, mail carrier,

At the competitive examination
held Edenton last week for the
appointment of cadets to

district, Pitt county came out
with three fourths the honors.
There were three applicants for
each position before the
board. Two men from
county, Messrs. Lyman
ten and Grimes, stood for
the Annapolis appointment, and
one from Mr. Harry Harding,
stood for West Point. Mr. Cot-
ten stood the best examination
for and received the
appointment, while Mr. Grimes
second best was made
For West Point Mr. S.
T. Ansell, of Currituck, received
the highest marks and was given
the appointment, with Mr. Hard-
as alternate. Mr. Ansell was
a pupil of the school taught by
Prof. Sheep who was the head of
the examining board. This gives
county one appointment and
two alternates. The appointees
go on to eland another
at the academies and in case
of a fa-lure to the alternate
is a trial.

and Has a Bright Future, , . . ,
nave my work cut out to cope
with the extraordinary demand.
Greenville, N. C-, is one of the
young tobacco markets, but it is
a healthy youngster and is grow-
right along-
The market was established
only a few years ago. For a
season or two previous, tho farm-
of the neighboring county
had been experimenting in to-
culture, and their success
was so marked that they went
into it as a regular business. They
have made money at it, too, for
they produce bright stock of
excellent quality. There is no
better grown anywhere.
Tho lauds are well adapted to
tobacco, and the climate is such
they have little to fear in the way
of frosts and cold spells. They
are reasonably sure of a good
crop every year and they made a
goo J one last year.
Greenville is pretty certain to
become one of the leading mar-
of Eastern North Carolina,
and its enterprising citizens are
leaving no stone unturned to
build it up- Next fall it will have
another warehouse, a number of
new and strong additions
to its corps of buyers. The
American Tobacco Company
shows its faith tho of
the town by the contract
for a large leaf factory to be erect-
ed at once.
All admire pluck, and that is
what the Greenville people are
displaying. The efforts they are
putting forth, backed by the merit
of the article they have to offer
to the world, is bound to win.
We look for Greenville to largely
increase her sales the coming
season-
Prominent among those who
have been doing hard and
work for this market is Mr.
O. L. Joy nor. Mr. Joyner has
a gallant fight. He is a
hustler, a strong writer and a
business man of foresight and
grit. Greenville is greatly in-
to him for the position it
has taken among the tobacco
markets and for its promising

as to the tobacco crop.
