WHEN YOU WANT J. H. Bridgers and W. W. Row- land. Mayor J. II. Hridgers turned ever the reins of the municipal government to his successor W. W. Rowland, Esq., on the first instant. It is but just to the retiring chief executive of the town to say that his official career has been creditable to himself and acceptable to the people. He has discharged his duties in a fair minded and impartial manner and administered the law as he found it and interpreted its meaning. Positive, but nxt overbearing; sym- pathetic, but not sentimental, Mayor Hridgers administration has been such that he and his friends have cause to felicitate themseves, and he retires with the confidence and regard of the public no less than when he entered upon his term of office a year ago. Of his successor Mayor Rowland it may be expected that his official career will be in every way commendable and satisfactory. He is a gentleman of intelligence and good judgment, a thorough business man and we doubt not will give us a capable and business like administration. Having served in the capacity of town commissioner he is familiar with the affairs of our local government and such knowledge and experience will serve him in good turn. Let us as a community uphold and support Mayor Rowland's administra- tion and second his every effort to en- force the law, and preserve order, and advance the interests of Henderson in every way in our power. . . .Shiloh's Cure, the Great Cough and Croup Cure, is for sale by us. 1'ocket size contains twetitv-fiv- e doses, only 2rc.

A new grocery firm, and one which is in the race to win. is that of Powell & Co., Mangum street, at the stand formerly occupied by the Durham Fer- tilizer Company. Mr. Powell came to Durham about two months ago, opened up a fresh and choice line of fancy groceriesf and put out his sign. The new firm commenced to do business on the day it opened and was in it from the start. As it became better known its trade in- creased, and to-da- y it is disputing ground with many older and better known grocery houses. Mr. Powell is a man who attends to his business and will look after the in- terest of his customers. He keeps the best in the market. His clerks are polite and always, at their post, and the man who deals with the new firm can always be sure of their doing the square thing. The foregoing is taken from the Dur- ham Globe. The new firm referred to is composed of J. B. Powell and II. C. Callaham. Mr. Powell, the senior member, was formerly in business here but recently went to Durham and engaged in a different line. He is a good business man, a hard worker, en- ergetic and accommodating, and it will be gratifying to his friends to know that he is meeting with success in his new field. Wc understand that the increasing trade and popularity of this firm necessitated the moving of their stock to larger and more convenient quarters on Main street where they will have better facilities for serving their patrons and also to do business in the wholesale line.

The editor had the pleasure ofspend-in- g a couple of nights and a day in Rocky Mount, taking a run down there Saturday eyeuiug. We were agreeably surprised and much gratified at the evidences of thrift and progress seen on every hand. The town has grown and prospered wonderfully since we had stopped there last, some years ago. The population has more than doubled in the last two years we were told. This is a remarkable record for a North Carolina town. Recognizing the high character of the institution and the splendid work it is doing for the unfortunate men who are victims of the drink habit as well as those suffering from nervous ail'cctions, we went to Keeley Institute, of which our good friend the genial hearted, brilliant minded Dossey Rattle, himself the mo?t eloquent endorse- ment of the redeeming powers of the double bichloride of gold treatment, is manager. Dr. G. A. Ramseur a skilled taud scientific practioner and gentleman is the physician in charge, and two more kind hearted, sympa- thetic and well fitted men for their respective duties could not be found. The patients come and go and three had just returned home new men a few days before. There were several others there and a cleverer, jollier, more hopeful set of men we never saw. Some people have an idea that a Keeley Institute is but little removed from a mail house. On the contrary it is where one might go to find men of character, men of sense, men of re- finement who had made up their minds to break the schackles that bind them and control their will power and des- troy their manhood and usefulnessto be cured of the disease of alcoholism and be made new men again. And such is the grand mission of the Keeley cure and such is the work it is doing. The time is not far distant when Dr. Leslie F. Keeley will be regarded as the greatest benefactor of his day. and men like Dossey Rattle and Dr. Ram- seur who are giving their life-wo- rk to the reclamation of unfortunate fellow creatures will receive their reward in gratitude and moral support at least for their earnestness and unselfish devo- tion to the great cause in which they arc laboring. Sunday we dined with Mr. and Mrs. K. W. Koghill whose hearts still turn toward Henderson aud go out warmly for Henderson people. Mr Coghill has dono much in his particular line to build up and beautify the town and has several large contracts on hand to build many handsome private resi- dences and commodious business houses. His friends will be pleased to learn that he is doing well in his new home. Sunday night we were the guest of Will T. Gregory, whom we all know to be one of the cleverest boys in forty States, as he is one of the most com- petent and expert judges and handlers of tobacco. He is manager and buyer for the American Tobacco Company, and has two large establishments well filled with the finest grades of leaf, all in apple pie order. He is as popular with the people of Rock' Mount (the female portion especially) as he was in Henderson, and only kind words were spoken of him. This is nothing more than we expected and what he deserves. Monday wc rode with him several miles in the country and were gratified at the encouraging looks of things on the well cultivated farms. Crops are growing nicely and looking fine. A great deal of tobacco has been planted and in many places it is being worked. The season is several weeks earlier than with us. We had the pleasure of seeing our brethren of the press, Mr. W. A. Campbell, of the Aryonaut, and John W. Lewis, of the Plucnix, both of whom have done good service in behalf of the advancement of their town, and deserve the most liberal support of the business men and property owners. Rocky Mount has a bright future be- fore it and the citizens are full of hope and encouragement. We regret that space is not at our disposal to say as much about the place and people as we would like. LADIES Needing a tonic, or children who want build- ing up, should take BROWN'S IKON BITTERS.

At the recent meeting of tlie North Carolina Press Association in New Berne, the cash in advance system of conduct- ing newspapers that is requiring till subscribers to pay the money down at time of entering tlu-i- names and promptly discontinuing the paper at ex- piration of time paid for was discussed and the general opinion expressed was that this is the only satisfactory and proper course to pursue. The Lexington Di--ptte- k of last week says this along that lint;: Anent the discussion at tlie late meet- ing of the Press Association in regard to the cash system, we desire to say that we inaugurated that system nearly a year and a half ago and have never had cause to regret it. We advise every news-pad- er to go am) do likewise. The credit system will not do as ii matter of busi- ness. A newspaper in these times that runs on the old credit basis is just a little behind tlit; times. - - We are showing an elegant line of French Dress patterns in Silk and Woolen Novelties the latest designs.

In the light of recent events it may be stated upon positive assurance that many of Henderson's business people are sadder, if not wiser aud better men than than they used to be. No 'en- dorsements" are necessary to substan- tiate this fact. Attention is called to the advertise- ment of J. A.

A perfect town is that in which you see the farmers patronizing the home merchants, the merchants patronizing home printers, the laborers spending the money they earn with their own tradesmen, and they buying their things at home instead of going abroad. The spirit of reciprocity between busi- ness men and mechanics, tradesmen and laborers, the farmers and manu- facturers, results every time in making the town a good one for business Pa i n es v il ! c Dam onu I. One of the sufferers by last week's storm was Mr. Walter Milne, who lives just below town, near the Ward place. He lost his dwelling and all out houses, together with much of his crop and household effects. Everything on the place was blown down by the cyclone and the wreck was complete. His daughter had one of her hands badly hurt but with this exception the family escaped bodily injury. Mr. Milne is an old man and his misfortune is lament- able. They sought refuge at Mr. Mark IJowen's at whose house they arc being kindly cared for.

The Gor.it Ja.av has had occasion several times heretofore to speak in complimentary terms of the Michie Tobacco Company, one of Henderson's most worthy and successful enterprises. The company is composed of excellent gentlemen who are recognized as among our best and most enterprising business men, and the' are pushing their popular brands of smoking to- bacco with a vigor aud earnestness characteristic ot" them and such as challenges our warmest admiration. Resides keeping two or three salesmen constantly rn the road and pushing their trade out into new territory the Michie Tobacco Company give a hand- some $G.U0 wall desk and book case with every 50 pounds or $20.00 worth of their goods. The dealer realizes 00 per cent, on the investment and gets the desk thrown in. This is made of antique oak and is a thing of beauty, au ornament to any room or library, and altogether a desirable piece of fur- niture. One commendable thing in this connection is the fact that these desks are manufactured here in Hen- derson. They are made under the im- mediate supervision of Mr. II. A. Draper, one of the tinestcabinet makers in the country, which of itself is suf- ficient guarantee of their superior work- manship, beauty of finish and general excellence. With goods of such fine quality aud delightful -- flavor as the Michie and Prichard's Pride smoking tobacco, aud gentlemen of such means and enter- prise as Mr. Geo. S. Pochard, the Messrs. Harris, Mr. L. R. Gooch and Mr. F. W.

J. H. Bridgers and W. W. Row-land.

Mayor J. II. Hridgers turned everthe reins of the municipal governmentto his successor W. W. Rowland, Esq.,on the first instant. It is but just tothe retiring chief executive of the townto say that his official career has beencreditable to himself and acceptable tothe people. He has discharged hisduties in a fair minded and impartialmanner and administered the law ashe found it and interpreted its meaning.Positive, but nxt overbearing; sym-pathetic, but not sentimental, MayorHridgers administration has been suchthat he and his friends have causeto felicitate themseves, and he retireswith the confidence and regard of thepublic no less than when he enteredupon his term of office a year ago.

Of his successor Mayor Rowland itmay be expected that his official careerwill be in every way commendable andsatisfactory. He is a gentleman ofintelligence and good judgment, athorough business man and we doubtnot will give us a capable and businesslike administration. Having served inthe capacity of town commissioner heis familiar with the affairs of our localgovernment and such knowledge andexperience will serve him in good turn.Let us as a community uphold andsupport Mayor Rowland's administra-tion and second his every effort to en-

force the law, and preserve order, andadvance the interests of Henderson inevery way in our power.

As to Powell & Co., a Firm Whichia Business From the Start.

A new grocery firm, and one whichis in the race to win. is that of Powell& Co., Mangum street, at the standformerly occupied by the Durham Fer-tilizer Company.

Mr. Powell came to Durham abouttwo months ago, opened up a fresh andchoice line of fancy groceriesf and putout his sign. The new firm commencedto do business on the day it openedand was in it from the start. As itbecame better known its trade in-

creased, and to-da- y it is disputingground with many older and betterknown grocery houses.

Mr. Powell is a man who attends tohis business and will look after the in-

terest of his customers. He keeps thebest in the market. His clerks arepolite and always, at their post, andthe man who deals with the new firmcan always be sure of their doing thesquare thing.

The foregoing is taken from the Dur-

ham Globe. The new firm referred tois composed of J. B. Powell and II. C.Callaham. Mr. Powell, the seniormember, was formerly in businesshere but recently went to Durham andengaged in a different line. He is agood business man, a hard worker, en-

ergetic and accommodating, and it willbe gratifying to his friends to knowthat he is meeting with success in hisnew field. Wc understand that theincreasing trade and popularity of thisfirm necessitated the moving of theirstock to larger and more convenientquarters on Main street where theywill have better facilities for servingtheir patrons and also to do business inthe wholesale line.

A Town With a ISrisht FutureBefore It The Keeley Insti-

tute and the Good WorkIt Is Doing:.

The editor had the pleasure ofspend-in- g

a couple of nights and a day inRocky Mount, taking a run down thereSaturday eyeuiug. We were agreeablysurprised and much gratified at theevidences of thrift and progress seenon every hand. The town has grownand prospered wonderfully since wehad stopped there last, some yearsago. The population has more thandoubled in the last two years wewere told. This is a remarkablerecord for a North Carolina town.

Recognizing the high character ofthe institution and the splendid workit is doing for the unfortunate menwho are victims of the drink habit aswell as those suffering from nervousail'cctions, we went to Keeley Institute,of which our good friend the genialhearted, brilliant minded Dossey Rattle,himself the mo?t eloquent endorse-ment of the redeeming powers of thedouble bichloride of gold treatment,is manager. Dr. G. A. Ramseur askilled taud scientific practioner andgentleman is the physician in charge,and two more kind hearted, sympa-thetic and well fitted men for theirrespective duties could not be found.The patients come and go and threehad just returned home new men afew days before. There were severalothers there and a cleverer, jollier,more hopeful set of men we never saw.Some people have an idea that a KeeleyInstitute is but little removed from amail house. On the contrary it iswhere one might go to find men ofcharacter, men of sense, men of re-

finement who had made up their mindsto break the schackles that bind themand control their will power and des-

troy their manhood and usefulnesstobe cured of the disease of alcoholismand be made new men again. Andsuch is the grand mission of the Keeleycure and such is the work it is doing.The time is not far distant when Dr.Leslie F. Keeley will be regarded asthe greatest benefactor of his day. andmen like Dossey Rattle and Dr. Ram-seur who are giving their life-wo- rk tothe reclamation of unfortunate fellowcreatures will receive their reward ingratitude and moral support at least fortheir earnestness and unselfish devo-tion to the great cause in which theyarc laboring.

Sunday we dined with Mr. and Mrs.K. W. Koghill whose hearts still turntoward Henderson aud go out warmlyfor Henderson people. Mr Coghill hasdono much in his particular line tobuild up and beautify the town andhas several large contracts on hand tobuild many handsome private resi-dences and commodious business houses.His friends will be pleased to learnthat he is doing well in his new home.

Sunday night we were the guest ofWill T. Gregory, whom we all knowto be one of the cleverest boys in fortyStates, as he is one of the most com-petent and expert judges and handlersof tobacco. He is manager and buyerfor the American Tobacco Company,and has two large establishments wellfilled with the finest grades of leaf, allin apple pie order. He is as popularwith the people of Rock' Mount (thefemale portion especially) as he wasin Henderson, and only kind wordswere spoken of him. This is nothingmore than we expected and what hedeserves.

Monday wc rode with him severalmiles in the country and were gratifiedat the encouraging looks of things onthe well cultivated farms. Crops aregrowing nicely and looking fine. Agreat deal of tobacco has been plantedand in many places it is being worked.The season is several weeks earlierthan with us.

We had the pleasure of seeing ourbrethren of the press, Mr. W. A.Campbell, of the Aryonaut, and JohnW. Lewis, of the Plucnix, both ofwhom have done good service in behalfof the advancement of their town, anddeserve the most liberal support of thebusiness men and property owners.Rocky Mount has a bright future be-

fore it and the citizens are full of hopeand encouragement.

We regret that space is not at ourdisposal to say as much about theplace and people as we would like.

The Cash in Advance Plan.At the recent meeting of tlie North

Carolina Press Association in New Berne,the cash in advance system of conduct-ing newspapers that is requiring tillsubscribers to pay the money down attime of entering tlu-i- names andpromptly discontinuing the paper at ex-

piration of time paid for was discussedand the general opinion expressed wasthat this is the only satisfactory andproper course to pursue. The LexingtonDi--ptte- k of last week says this along thatlint;:

Anent the discussion at tlie late meet-ing of the Press Association in regard tothe cash system, we desire to say thatwe inaugurated that system nearly ayear and a half ago and have never hadcause to regret it. We advise every news-pad- er

to go am) do likewise. The creditsystem will not do as ii matter of busi-ness. A newspaper in these times thatruns on the old credit basis is just a littlebehind tlit; times.

One of the sufferers by last week'sstorm was Mr. Walter Milne, who livesjust below town, near the Ward place.He lost his dwelling and all out houses,together with much of his crop andhousehold effects. Everything on theplace was blown down by the cycloneand the wreck was complete. Hisdaughter had one of her hands badlyhurt but with this exception the familyescaped bodily injury. Mr. Milne is anold man and his misfortune is lament-able. They sought refuge at Mr. MarkIJowen's at whose house they arc beingkindly cared for.

Commendable Enterprise.The Gor.it Ja.av has had occasion

several times heretofore to speak incomplimentary terms of the MichieTobacco Company, one of Henderson'smost worthy and successful enterprises.The company is composed of excellentgentlemen who are recognized asamong our best and most enterprisingbusiness men, and the' are pushingtheir popular brands of smoking to-bacco with a vigor aud earnestnesscharacteristic ot" them and such aschallenges our warmest admiration.Resides keeping two or three salesmenconstantly rn the road and pushingtheir trade out into new territory theMichie Tobacco Company give a hand-some $G.U0 wall desk and book casewith every 50 pounds or $20.00 worthof their goods. The dealer realizes 00per cent, on the investment and getsthe desk thrown in. This is made ofantique oak and is a thing of beauty,au ornament to any room or library,and altogether a desirable piece of fur-

niture. One commendable thing inthis connection is the fact that thesedesks are manufactured here in Hen-derson. They are made under the im-

mediate supervision of Mr. II. A.Draper, one of the tinestcabinet makersin the country, which of itself is suf-ficient guarantee of their superior work-manship, beauty of finish and generalexcellence.

With goods of such fine quality auddelightful -- flavor as the Michie andPrichard's Pride smoking tobacco, audgentlemen of such means and enter-prise as Mr. Geo. S. Pochard, theMessrs. Harris, Mr. L. R. Gooch andMr. F. W. Ilite to push its manufac-ture and sale the Gold Lkav is notsurprised at the wide popularity audgrowing demand for their productthroughout the country.

Virginia darky "Why can't 'NorfCar'lina' pay as good wages as 'OldVirginny' ? "

North Carolina darky " 'Caze 'NorfCar'lina' pays her honest debts, and'Old Virginny' re'justed hern."
