Recerd of Matters of General Interest LOCAL NITES AND TOB ACCO JOTTINGS BY O. L. JOYNER. Farmers are now busy curing Nearly uli the uvaibale barns are in use. Can't the citizens of the tovn organize a board of trade. One is needed more than any other one taing to aid Greenville in her ooward progress. A good many wore tobacco buyers ere expected here dunng the coming week. We arein re— ceipt of letters from some of them saying they will be on the market by the 15th of this month. Mr. P. H. Gorman has had a walling ran around his prizerv and is adding good many other improvements to bis prize house. His firm expects to do a wuch larger business here the coming season than ever before. The firm of J. N. Gorman & Co. is composed of young men and in North Carolinaanod Virgiuia there is not @ more thorough going set of bastlers. If a stranger was casting about looking for a location to start up an isdustry and should strike Greenville who would show him the town and the si‘es that could be had! Most likely he would interview the botel -keepers and by them woald be referred, very of the rest of ts, who, while we might do the best we could in our individual capacity, yet it would fail to make the impression On a stranger that a set of men appointed for that purpose would make. Let us have a boaid of trade and then let the board ap-— point a standing committee whose business 1t shall be to at+ tend to all matters of this kind. [here is now a guod deal of in quiring about Greeuville all ove: tue State. Nearly every drummer that we ineet tells us that Grevna ullle is in the healthiest cond.tion of any town in the east. Witha little effort on the part of our people, we could soon have a nice little city, aad with the in- vestigation that is now being made we certainly can’t afford not to have a regularly organized voard of trade to negotiate with prospectors, and eyen if we do not secure thew wake it pleasant for them while they are here. This much we owe to our self pride. The following clipping from the: Manufacturers’ Record is from our touwusman, Mr. 8. C. Hamil- ton: : Mr. 8. C. Hamilton, Jr.. mana ger Greenville Lumber Co., Green ville, N. C., in a letter to the Man- ufacturers’ Record, says: “We like the Manufacturers’ Record and hope you will continue in the same line. You are building up the South on good, safe b~siness ptinciples, and every statement you makeis to the point. The writer is from the North, way up in Maine, and for Southern peo- ple and industries we haye only woras of praise.” : If we had more Northern men like Mr. Hamilton in our Southern States it would nct belong before the South would be vindicated from the false and scurrilous re~ pofts that frequently go the rounds in the North. A few days ago speaking with the writer Mr. Hawilton sad: ‘“‘When you hear of a northern wan that has been South and goes back vilifying and abusing probably, to some lawyer or some!

Three Cases in Town, On Tuesday of last week, the day that Mr. D. S. Spain’s child was pronunced to have scarlet fever, Mr. J. B. Latham, who oc- cupied «a portion of the same house, moved over in Forbes- town to a building he had pre- viously rented. Since moving one of Mr. Latham’s children was taken sick, and to-day the doc- turs pronounced it another case of scarlet fever and the house was promotly quarantined. As there are now three case» of the fever here we think it advigable that all parents keep their chil- dren at home until these cases are well. That will be a good way to keep the disease from spreading. Sunday the house of Mr. W. J. the Southern people, you may note that in moat cases he is out Cowell was quarantined, -one of! his children having scarlet fever. | Middl There is general improvem in the condition of crops throu out the county.
