Greenville Booming Rapidly.
Over Business is one Say.
Few people, even the business men
of Greenville, give our town the
real consideration deserves.
There is an importance attached to
every town and city, or community,
that is measured by the business it
and the amount of moneyed
transactions that occur. To be
plain, it takes people and money to
build up a country, or a town.
Last Saturday was not a big day
in Greenville. The stranger who
stood upon the streets did not think
there was a unusual crowd ere.
But the business of the town as com-
piled on Monday morning showed
that the people are alive to the fact
that Greenville is the place to buy

Yes, Greenville is booming.

grown by the farmer and what is to
be bought is as cheap here as
where. Only ten thousand dollars

tobacco money, all made on Pitt
county soil, all made by Pitt county
labor. Does not this sound as
though the farmers can be justified
by coming to Greenville to sell and
buy rather than g- to sister towns

Farmers come to Greenville and bring

think of it, over
cash business in one day.
Everybody busy, everybody making
everybody else happy by the bar-
gains they give. Two of our mer-
chants have this week gone north to
purchase new goods for second
time this season. We propose to
take another census of the town in
short, and see what the increase of
cash business is.
Strangers at the recent Baptist A s-
were astonished that Green-
ville was such a town, and had
a people. The world is finding us
out. The people of the who
have been carrying their products to
other markets are becoming sensible
of the fact, the place tr, served
right is invite all
good people to come to Greenville
and see and learn for themselves.
Even the country stores are boom-

Private and public meetings hare
been held with a view to organize
them and vote them as in the
past. Independents have been
endorsed in back rooms and over-
have been made but it is a
fact that they are to-day without a

in the honesty or integrity of their
white allies and are on the
eve of departing from under the
lash that has been held over them
for the last twenty-five years.

radicals have been able to dupe
the poor ignorant blacks and force
them to vote for them under
threats, intimidations and

been tools in the hands of the
white Republicans. All that these
white radicals wanted with the
was their votes. The
paying offices have been in the
hands of the white rads and an
occasional crumb has been hand-
ed out to the and these
poor, deluded voters are now
realizing that it is time that they

pity those ignorant, superstitious

never did any thing for them and

allegiance to the Republican party

solve the race problem.
The farmer or other head of the

illustration of the meaning of the

Republican majority in Congress

party with its campaign
funds. It is for him to decide
by his whether he endorses
the robbery or not.
Mr. Harrison may or may not
ask for the resignation of his
Commissioner of Pensions, but
among honest men, no matter,
what their political opinions may
be, there is no difference of

And now it seems that the
Word's Fair is to be classed with
the numerous things injured by
the new tariff law. The latest
European advices says that the
majority of manufacturers refuse
to send any exhibits to Chicago,
taking the ground that it would be
useless expenditure of money
for them to do so as the duties
imposed by the new tariff law are
so high as to practically shut their
goods out of the American mar-

not get around where any of the

If he would just let that sterling

Speaking of the contest for the

Will Mr. Harrison take care of
his old law partner and present
Attorney General by appointing
him to the vacancy caused by the
death of Justice Samuel F. Miller
on the bench of the Supreme
Court He will if he has his way,
but the Attorney General is not

not probable that Mr. Harrison

the workingmen of this country
must not expect to be
by the new tariff law for a long
time to come, and it ingeniously

manufacturer.

done North Again.
Mr. W. B. Brown, of the firm of
Brown Hooker, went North
day for a second purchase of new
goods. Heavy sales is cleaning their
stock right out and they must fill
up again. The cash sales of that
firm last Saturday amounted to
No wonder they have to go on after
more goods.
A Stirring Firm-
A gentleman who was recently at
Grimesland brings up a good report
from J. O. Proctor Bro., of that
place, who are advertisers in the Re-
He says they are doing a
tremendous business and sell large
quantities of goods. Up to last Fri-
day they had bought bales of
cotton, their purchases running from
to bales a day. They have a
gin also that turns out bales a
day. They are stirring, enterprising
young men that compose this firm,
and we are to know they are
doing such a good business.
Strong at Eighty.
Mr. Van R. of Lenoir
county, was in town a few days ago
visiting his daughter, Mrs. O- P.
He is about years old
and is a remarkable man for bis age.
He w from his home to Grifton,
a distance of four miles, took the cars
there and came to Greenville. It
was the first time he ever was on a
train. When he went to return
home be took the train here after
dark and said he was going to walk
home that night iron. even if
the train did get there late. Few
men are so well preserved and can
take such walks at this advanced age.
Another North
That popular merchant, M. R.
Lang, went North yesterday to
purchase goods for the second time
this season. Going after goods twice
the same season is unusual, but his
sales have recently been so
dented as to make it necessary. Mr.
Lang knows the and
keeps just the lines of goods that
please the ladies every time,
he is not troubled with shelf
worn goods and always has the new-
est out of everything. His sales so
far this month have amounted to as
much as for both the months of
and November last year. Read
his notice this week.
What Another
Upon returning
last week, editor of
Scotland Neck Democrat had some
very nice things to say about our
town and people. We clip the three
items below from bis excellent pater.
Twenty-five persons from Scotland
Neck attended tho Baptist
in Greenville last week, and
every one was highly pleased with
the hospitality shown them. All are
loud in their praises of the Green-
ville people of every religious de-
nomination, and are irons of an
opportunity to pay the Greenville
folks back in their own coin. Every
one whom we have talked with seem.-d
to think that be or she bad the very
best that could have been
cured in the town. The town is
proving and has stores and other
business that look like things in a
city.
The entire population Green-
ville were on the vive for the
pleasure and comfort of every single
visitor to the association. A more
noble and warm hearted people can
not be found in all the land of
South, where everything that pertains
to whole-souled hospitality is pro-
There are many more
things the Democrat would like to
say for Greenville and its very clever
people, but want of space forbids
it. Of all the people we have ever
seen we would select those of Green-
ville next after those of Scotland
Neck.
Among the many other good thing
that Greenville has, is one of the best
equipped country newspaper offices
we have seen. And if there is a
newspaper editor in the state who is
more of a general favorite among his
people than Bro. Whichard, editor of
Reflector, we hare not seen or
heard of him.
Speakings.
The people of Pitt county are to

good speeches by leading men of the

system and correcting irregularities as
