J. B. CHERRY
The Christmas shopper will be al-
most dazzled when he first enters ~the
mammoth stores of this firm, but
bewilderment gives place to joy as an
inspection of their excellent stock be-
gins. We donTt believe there is a town
in North Carolina that can show in
one establishment a more complete
display of general merchandise, Th y
have something to suit everybody ard
is this additional satisfaction
about it, that whatever is \old you in
this store as to the character or value
of any article can be put down as every
word true. Among tha many things
they carry is an cxcellent line of furn-
iture, and you cannot get a_ better
Christmas present than one of their
handsome chairs.
ALFRED FORBES.
HereTs another stock ot general mer"
chandise well worth looking at. Mr,
Forbes has justly won the name of
oOld ReliableT? While not the oldest
in years or longest in statue of any
mau in town, he is the oldest and long�
est in business of any other. Laving
served the people so many years he
it for you.
SAMTL T. WHITE.
Another fine stuck of general mez-
chandise that is complete in every de-
partment. While this clever and pop.
ular young man can supply your necds
in every line, he is just now making a
gpecialty of celebrated shoes. You
will do well to treat yourself to a new
pair for Christmas and get a pair for
every member ot your family.
W. H. WHITE. ij
This gentleman keeps general mer
chandise, also and treats you right

Wasaineros, Deo.18th 1896.
Benator Vest has lost none of
his old-time power of expression,
ogor any of ~his. confidence in the
principles for which be has been
fighting so long. He made this
plain ip a short speech he deliv-
ered .this week. Although he
ased hig remarks upon the
~ Dingley bill, he prefaced them by
gaying that he knew it was o dead
Zssue and that he only did so be-
gause many well-meaning peop'e
were urging Congressto act upon
it. Later, the death of the Ding-
- Jey bill was announced by Sher-
nan. Apropos of the late cam-
paign, Mr. Vest said: oWhile 1
pay be subjected to the charge of
being a lunatic, an anarchist and
$ repudiator, I assert thut the
~gnly relief for the people is to
giv: them more money. If we are
Fonatics end anarchists because
we ask for the opening of the
mints to the free coinage of silver,
dhen over six million American
freemen who voted for Wm. J.
Bryon are lunatics, and may God

_ slajder. ~The men who supported

try: The gold standard which is
