Scott of the Lenoir Topic, and
all of us rejoice with him in, and
send best wishes for the fifteenth
anniversary of his paper which he
celebrated last week. We admire
the Topic and admire the style of
its editor. The people of Caldwell
have every reason to be proud of
their county paper.
The Wilmington Star announced
a. few days ago the beginning of
its forty fifth half yearly volume.
The Star is always the first paper
with us, and we look upon it as the
pride of North Carolina journals-
Its present editor. Maj. Duffy, is
an apt writer. His editorials bear
evidences of ability and his
are gems of the brightest
nature. Long shine the Star.
We were gratified to see in the
last Henderson Gold Leaf, that Thad
Manning had abandoned his idea
of leaving North Carolina, and was
going to remain in Henderson and
continue the publication of his ex-
paper. Joe Daniels says
the editors of the State ought to
hold a meeting and rejoice over
this good news. We will get in
some rejoicing at the next Press
Convention over it.
It is much disputed where the
world's fair in 1892 shall be held.
Our opinion has all along been
that not the slightest idea of hold-
it anywhere else than n ash-
should be entertained.
New York wants it its and is
every effort to secure it. Chi-
says it ought to go there, and
that city is holding meetings and
sending out circulars hying to
create a sentiment in its favor.
And now St. Louis comes out with
a map bearing three large circles
representing a radius of five
miles around New York, Chi-
and St. Louis and claiming
the number of people its own cir-
to be by far the largest and for
that reason it should have the fair.
If all these little towns don't stop
clamoring for the fair and let it go
on to Washington where it

which was organized in Greenville,
and it will be a fit place for any
memorial that may be desired
placed within it. The
here has labored hard and
borne a heavy burden to bring the
building to its present stage, and
greatest credit is due them. It is
now hoped to get the building
completed at an early day.
We publish to-day a letter from
Mr. E. A. Oldham, editor of the
Durham Globe, concerning some
recent comments made in the Re-
Mr. Oldham is not en-
consistent in all things, as we
will show. He complains at us
for not writing him a postal asking
him to exchange, and says that
the aid of a newspaper
directory ho may have overlooked
some of his Well, he
managed to find the address of the
Reflector when his circular was
sent out, and found it again when
the first issue of the Globe was sent
out, so it is strange that he should
have lost it before another issue
of his paper. Again, we did not
think it was necessary or the
tom among North Carolina journals
to send a postal card, when a mark-
ed copy of one paper sent to
re was sufficient to secure the
of an exchange. At least this
has been found to be all that was
necessary in our twelve years ex-
and we saw no reason for
making further advances to the
Globe than we always had to other
papers. Of course it is not
to into print about such
matters, but we saw several papers
complaining of the discourtesy of
the Globe so had our say, too. The
Reflector does not retract any
it has said.

Summer drew on, our people
began wandering around in search
of recreation, interest in the
seemed to wane and
enough of the officers could not be
brought together to conduct the
work of the meetings. Hence
there has been no meeting in
months, and the Association
is pronounced dead by those who
began preaching its funeral and
throwing cold water upon it from
its infancy. But the people are
all back home now, court is over,
there is nothing but the usual
tine of business to occupy the re-
of this year and the Re-
suggests that the
be revived and that it go
forward in carrying out the work
upon which it started. Despite
the croakers, we know that Green-
ville can be made a growing town
if her people can only be induced
to act in concert. There is plenty
of material here for factories, there
are ample facilities for all trans-
there are abundant lands
for all new comers who wish to set-
the climate is salubrious, and
every natural advantage is in our
favor. What then wait we for
and indifference will
see other towns supplant us, while
Greenville has advantages over all
her neighbors if they were only
utilized. We urge the business men
to action. Don't say nothing can
be done. Revive the Association
and go to work earnestly, and you
will see that something can
done. I

Editor
Las been directed to your
of last week in yon complain
of not Laving received the Globe,
and charge me with if
I remember your comment.
I confess my surprise
there has been no intention cl dis-
on my part or on the part
of any one connected with the
so far as the Reflector is concern-
ed.
We have never set eyes on the
exchange list of predecessor, the
Tobacco Plant, in sending out
copies of our paper to the papers
in the State, without the aid of a
newspaper directory, may have
overlooked several of our friends.
Can there be any discourtesy in
this On the other, how much more
courteous, how much more
it would have been to have done
what other editors did, dropped
a postal and called our attention to
the oversight, remembering the
fact that many things are apt to be
overlooked in the organization of a
new morning journal.
Please publish this letter that
your readers may see that no dis
courtesy has been intended yon, and
farther, that other exchanges not
getting the Globe may understand
the probable cause thereof.
Very Fraternally yours,
Edward a. Oldham,
. The Other Side.
Editor see in
your last issue, that your

and to work for the promotion of

Means just honorable to her
people. But, as I do not think the
establishment an Agricultural
Fair in our county would

es of our people, I beg leave to
fer with him in just this one
have not much experience
in Fairs, true, but as far as it
goes, it teaches toe that Fairs
fit the capitalist, -he speculator and
the gambler at the ex-
of the honest tillers of the
soil. If I am correct this, there
is no other argument needed to
prove a Fair In our county
would be a curse instead of a bless-
to the masses or our people. In
my humble opinion there arc too
many Fairs in the State now for the
good of our people. The amount of
which goes out of Pitt
to these Fairs is no doubt many
hundreds of dollars each year. Our
people are not able to afford this.
It seems to me it must be plain
to the mind of every reasonable
thinker that as well as our
farmers are growing poorer and
poorer each year. If this is so
is it so It must be because too
much of the little we raise is spent
non-essentials, and too little for
permanent improvements. Then we
should try to husband our resources
and instead of investing cur money
in fairs, let us put it in permanent
improvements on our farms. I
we will try this plan a few years
the old county will show up to much
better advantage than she would
with a Fair would take thou-
sands of dollars from our horny
handed sons of toil, and at the same
time be a promoter of idleness and
