Our dear uncle wandered from his
home and dear Tuesday morn-
August 26th, about o'clock,
and after many untiring searches his
body was found in Tar river by the
captain of the boat ten miles above
Washington. His body was brought
up on the boat that afternoon, and
interred in the family
ground the same evening by candle
light. For some time his mind had
been in an abnormal state, and the
tearing down some buildings on his
town lots and heart trouble seemed
lo perplex him so much, we suppose
it caused sudden insanity, and thus
he wandered away from his dear
home, with its sweet surroundings
and plunged himself in the depths of
the dark, cold river, perfectly
conscious of its mighty dangers. It I

Maj. Wm. A. of Dur-

Republicans in the State, has writ-

his intention to support Hon. B.

The annual State Fair will be
held Raleigh October 14th to
18th. It is going to be the big-
and best fair the society has
yet held. The whole State is in-
in this fair and every
county should help to make it a
success. Pitt county will stand
very much in her own light if she
does not make a good exhibit
there. Steps in this direction
should be taken at once and the
movement put on foot to have the
county creditably represented.
Pitt can make as good an exhibit
as any county in North Carolina.
Judge Womack is giving
satisfaction as presiding Judge
over this term of Pitt Superior
Court. Ho wears the
with dignity, and while he pushes
the work in a rapid business like
manner, there is the utmost
accuracy and precision about him.
His charge to the Grand Jury is
pronounced a good one. it
not a long. tedious rehearsal of
every crime and technicality as is
so often heard from the Bench,
but was a clear and practical syn
of the duties of the Jurors,
given so plain that they readily
understood what was expected of
them. He is a good Judge, and
possesses an excellent knowledge
of the law. We have heard the
expression several times this
that it was a pity he was defeated
for the nomination.
Washington. D. C. Sept.
To see the jollification in which the
republicans are indulging over
re-elected Speaker Reed from a
district where there was no organ-
democratic opposition, one
would suppose that they had elected
a majority of the next House and
secured a mortgage on the
chair for years from
March Let them remember
that who laughs last laughs
The adulation which Mr. Reed is
now receiving here from members
of his party is absolutely sickening
He is naturally vain and self con-
but since his return he is
worse than ever; he struts around
with his head thrown back and his
chest expanded looking exactly like
a barn-yard turkey-gobbler among
a lot of hen He regards
his re-election as not only an en-
of his unspeakable record
as Speaker, but. also as an endorse-
of his presidential aspirations,
and the turning down of a certain
gentleman who has for many years
been supposed to carry the vote of
the State of Maine around in his
vest G. Blaine. By
the way. it is noticeable that among
ail the telegrams of congratulation
received by Mr. Reed there was not
a word from Mr. Blaine.

Bethel, N. O., Sept. 12th 1890.
Me. Editor see in your last
week's issue of the an
article in which my name
and some remarks I make to yon. I
endorse your article and think it not
only to the point, to the interest
of every tobacco grower in the
and every business man in
Greenville also. If there was a to
warehouse backed up with a
factory, in my honest it
would be a great
to the tobacco growers but a
business to your For
by stock company
in Greenville a warehouse prize
factory with machinery attached
to make cigarettes, the farmer's and
stock company would have a double
chance in profits on the tobacco
raised in county. We could
have a stated day in every week
for a brake, buyers would then come
to see our famous, Pitt tobacco,
and in case it did not bring such
prices as was satisfactory it could
be bid in for the company of the
factory. In so-doing if the planter
lost in one way he would gain in the
other. It behooves Greenville to
for it, as it would be the means
of thousands and ten times thou-
sands of dollars thrown down to the
business men of Greenville that
would go to other places, that might
and could be kept in our county and
town.
Mr. Editor, I am a home man. I
believe in home enterprise The
way Pitt county is going on it will
make in a few years
and Oxford rich. Let us all join in
together in one solid phalanx and
enrich ourselves. We get all this
up and no one man can be hurt by
the enterprise. There are enough
men in the county and town to get
ibis enterprise started and not half
try. If there is in tobacco
this year there will be in 1891.-
Think of the poor men that have
grown rich out of such enterprises
as this Carr, Blackwell, Duke,
Cooper, Davis, and a host of others
that I could mention. There is
money in this old county and town.
I say lets have it and not let it leave
Its in our grasp and we must
hold it. M. C. S.

An idea of the good tobacco
s would do. can be had
from the fact that just the
of the weed and preparing it
market has already given
to many persons heretofore
employed. Grading and icing to-
is light work that women, girls
and boys can readily perform and
numbers of them right hero in
Greenville and adjacent community
are making from to cents a
day at this work. how many
more could be employed at good
wages if the right kind of factories
were here, and how much more
money would be for the

engineer and fireman both jumped
from the train were fol-

that something was wrong rushed
to the door of Lit. caboose and
looked ahead. Taking in the sit-
at a glance ho uncoupled
his caboose and applied the brakes
stopping it only a few yards from
the river. The train shot out on
the bridge, the immense drive
wheels bouncing along over the
timbers with crushing force. The
bridge could not stand such jars
and two spans of it went down, the
engine and cars going with it,
the whole being completely wreck

jump from the train went down
with the wreck to the bottom of
the river and came out with only
a cut on the hand where he had
caught hold of something. He
fell a distance of about feet and
his escape almost miraculous.

The issues in North Carolina this
fall arc more than usually important
for an off year in First we
have two out of five members of the
Supreme court in peril, and then
nine out of twelve Superior Court
Judges, twelve Solicitors, nine Con-

tor all at hazard. Thus not only is
the Congressional representation,
save alone General Ransom, in
jeopardy, but also nearly the whole
judiciary of the State. To this should
be added the officers of the several
counties, and finally the Legislature.
And so there hangs trembling in
the balance the county government
system, election laws, the school
laws and the management of the
penitentiary, and the whole system
of internal administration of State
and county affairs and the city gov-
which the white people
have built up.

in Greenville a warehouse and prize
factory with machinery attached
to make cigarettes, the farmers and
stock company would a double
chance in profits on tobacco

have a stated day in every week

to see our famous, Pitt tobacco,

prices as was satisfactory it

factory. In so if the

work for it, as it would he the means
