ladies shoes being soft : and velvety the porpoise also yields i considerale oil and the lean parts of the iie\h is so nearly like pig steaks it is i difficult to tell the difference cotton factories the first cotton factories in this part \ of the state were built a little earlier i than the charlotte observer supposes when it puts it at thirty odd years ago there was a cotton factory in concord in 1840 to i'k it was near the same time that a cotton factory was built here at mocksville at greensboro and at lexington they all sprang up as we had occasion to say some mouths ago under the inspira i tion of a state effort about that time to i induce our people to go into the busi j ness of manufacturing the late hon i i has fisher of this place i not col ! c i fisher but his father.j was ai i leading man in that movement doing more than any other one man in this section to give it success it is believed that the failure of most of these facto ries was due to the lack of transporta i tion facilities sustaining capital wan j ing confidence and to inexperienced i operatives whatever the causes which j hindered their success it may not now i be very easy to determine as those who were actively concerned in them have passed off the stage leaving no available records from which the exact facts may he derived the factory in s disbury was built i:i 1339-'4o or about that time and af ter runninga number of years was sold at public sale for the purpose of raising funds to pay off original debt and was ! bought in by the late maxwell cham bers at a sum considerably below first co-t he introduced a good deal of new machinery and ran il successfully for several years lie had ample capi tal and business qualifications of a superior order all of which were made available in the business finally look ing forward to the approaching end of his life he donated the property to a young kinsman who as it appeared af terwards was deficient in those essen tials and it soon went down if it ever yielded a fair per cent on the in vestment it was while it was owned and operated by mr chambers — ••*>•- — the law of libel mr editor \ our quotation of jan 20 from the statesvilie landmark arraigns the merchants protective i'n ion before a triumvirate composed of constitution homestead and exemp tion law and the injured by the injured 1 suppose lawyer means those who do not pay their debts ' whose names are therefore published i in a pamphlet and furnished to all business men the last member of this court is incompetent you might as well suppose that a representation of revenue officers would repeal the i re venue la was to suppose that tin s i who do not pay their debts can with im partial eve behold any movement that tends to bring them to justice but lawyer says the injured will take the remedy in their own hands if that means they will by force avenge themselves they must be as spunky as he anarchists should such a move ment as that bo organized every man will then be seen under his proper col ors now we see the greatest financial cheats sitting in the amen corner on sunday and during the week enjoying the confidence of a deceived public ( but i suppose after all they will hard ly get fifjhtituj mud es we see bankrupts wearing gold studs and high-heeled hoot sportnig fancy canes and gold watch chains enjoying all the pleasures of the social and business circles eh those men bankrupts yes but but what but they lazy around live high and control thousands of dollars worth of property — in many instances much more than those whom they have paid off with bankrupt no tices to say nothing of the fact that the money was hard earned by the families that loaned it and spent in luxuriance and indolence by these fancy bankrupts but the other two mem bers of the court constitution home stead and exemption law by one nod of their massive heads sand ion the ' whole matter and now let bankrupts homestead and exemption well i need a word just here and all the other people sit in judgment on the question and say who are the injured ones nay let the matter be weighed in the balances of justice and the relig ion which a great many of these jcu tlemen profess and see what the verdict will be constitution and law are the crea tures of an acquiescent public sanction ed and enforced by the good for the restraint of the wicked and suppression of evil this is government moral philosophers say the public has divine ! right to control its parts for the great est good of the whole and laws which tend to this end have their origin in divine authority and are just in them selves laws which do not tend to this end are without divine authority and are unjust in themselves these i should be abolished but if the legisla tive department will not abolish them then the injured have a right to devise means for their own protection but who are the injured those whose goods and money have been obtained by others upon confidence principles and who find themselves duped while their debtors bask in the sunshine of a handsome homestead or skip from place to place seeking new victims to their artful rascality these are the injured directly indirectly it is the en tire commonwealth the farmer with 100.00 to loan demands a mortgage a lawyer charges 2 to £•"> to investi gate the title the probate and regis ter fee must be paid the poor man who borrows pays all this a merch ant sells goods on time he is bound to put on a per cent to cover all losses by homesteaders and skippers the honest have this per cent to pay the homesteaders and skippers are encour i aged and their ranks increase every thinking man knows the public i i injured indirectly i think this country is now groan ing for a species of terrorism which will render the condition of the debtor ! intolerable and his life burdensome 1 until he pays his debt by some means the public would like to amend the homestead and exemption provisions and with them their legitimate offspring the mortgage system and until this is done or something else for the protec tion of the merchant i do sincerely hope they will furnish each other with such information as will enable them to identify every homesteader and skipper i have the greatest sympathy f the poor man who for some good reason is unable to make lull payment but in harmony with public sentiment 1 deprecate the skipper and the indolent knave smiling in nominal bankruptcy , behind a handsome homestead 1 sub ' mit the following without car of con tradiction every honest hardwork j ing man who is unable to make full payment one year can get indulgence or a recommendation until the next it would be a good thing for this country if all this class were not only on the merchants black list but if they had the mark of the beasl in their forehead and also on their hacks as well as in their hearts china grove w'ry respectfully fei 14 87 c w corriher old salisbury col c r tones of the charlotte observer made a hying visit to salis bury last week and published in bis paper of saturday quite a sketch of the town from which we extract the ' following within the last few years the tobac co interest has grown quite extensively there are three tobacco warehouses here which last year sold 2,000,000 lbs ; of tobacco of about an average of '.).', ! cents per pound this scattered 190 j km among the farmers of this imme diate section besides this there are ' live tobacco factories in operation win h emj loy not less than 400 hands \ with a pay-roll at about 1,000 peri week for seven months in the year i amounting to not less than 25,000 this money goes into the avenues of trade ramifying in every direction and pulsating in life and vitality every where it must be remembered that this is a grain and grass growing sec i tion and that a large amount of cot ton is cultivated and that the tobacco interest is mainly surplus several hundred houses have been erected in the town within the last year or two and the price-of building lots j has advanced in some instances more than a hundred per cent this rise in tne increase in the price of real estate and in the increased building interest has been superinduced by the increased | commercial and business activity which \< apparent to all observers and the v ,!!,,( f rce school privileges which the town enjoys i large and successful graded school being in operation the railroad shops of the western x c railroad have been located here for 2 years and a hundred or more hands are employed in that institution the wage workers of salisbury receive not less than 2,000 pt>r week in the tobacco works and the railroad shops j all of which runs back into the coffers and tills of salisbury's business men iu addition to these and meronev bros foundry and machine shops j 1 small & bros machine shops mr ; p h thompson of tyro n 0 will shortly erect a foundry and machine shops here which it is expected will supply the trade in agricultural iniple \ nients tobacco boxes and genera | foundry and machine work for this i whole section of the euuntn the people here arc somewhat agi i tated over the proposed erection of i the new county of " lillington j which would take a considerable slice ! of the western portion of the territory : from rowan county we are told that ; not a single man in salisbury is in favor of the divide some months ago a building and i loan association was organized in i salisbury which has added a great deal | to the prosperity of the place about | 300 shares were subscribed at the first ! semi-annual meeting a dividend of , eleven per cent was declared to the | stockholders about 25,000 twentv j live thousand dollars has been loaned 1 out to the members and about twenty | houses have been erected which could ! not have been built without some such agency another thing which had added much to the prosperity of the place within the last year or two is the establishment of a national bank of which major \ s w cole i president and mr i 11 foust as cashier the bank was organ ized with a kml up capital of only 50,000 but after it started in business it became a depository for the surplus nionev in the surrounding country and at the close of business on the 23th of december last an official statement showed that it had in loans and dis counts 137,240.05 many progressive farmers and others hunted up old stockings where the accumulations and savings of years had been stored and put their nionev in the bank where it at once began to pulsate in the life-giv ing activity of commerce and trr.de it j is a fact that the bank last year furnish ed all the money which was paid for every bale of cotton bought on th streets of salisbury and the nionev to buy 2.000,000 pounds of tobacco there are men who curse capitalists an<i i nionev lenders as blasted bond hold ers who little think of ihe benefits i which are to be gained from t iie friend ; ly and cordial co-operation between labor and capital a movement was inaugurated about a week ago in salisbury which is des \ tined to do much good it was the ! introductory proceedings for the forma tion of the salisbury

intolerable and his life burdensome 1 until he pays his debt by some means the public would like to amend the homestead and exemption provisions and with them their legitimate offspring the mortgage system and until this is done or something else for the protec tion of the merchant i do sincerely hope they will furnish each other with such information as will enable them to identify every homesteader and skipper i have the greatest sympathy f the poor man who for some good reason is unable to make lull payment but in harmony with public sentiment 1 deprecate the skipper and the indolent knave smiling in nominal bankruptcy , behind a handsome homestead 1 sub ' mit the following without car of con tradiction every honest hardwork j ing man who is unable to make full payment one year can get indulgence or a recommendation until the next it would be a good thing for this country if all this class were not only on the merchants black list but if they had the mark of the beasl in their forehead and also on their hacks as well as in their hearts china grove w'ry respectfully fei 14 87 c w corriher old salisbury col c r tones of the charlotte observer made a hying visit to salis bury last week and published in bis paper of saturday quite a sketch of the town from which we extract the ' following within the last few years the tobac co interest has grown quite extensively there are three tobacco warehouses here which last year sold 2,000,000 lbs ; of tobacco of about an average of '.).', ! cents per pound this scattered 190 j km among the farmers of this imme diate section besides this there are ' live tobacco factories in operation win h emj loy not less than 400 hands \ with a pay-roll at about 1,000 peri week for seven months in the year i amounting to not less than 25,000 this money goes into the avenues of trade ramifying in every direction and pulsating in life and vitality every where it must be remembered that this is a grain and grass growing sec i tion and that a large amount of cot ton is cultivated and that the tobacco interest is mainly surplus several hundred houses have been erected in the town within the last year or two and the price-of building lots j has advanced in some instances more than a hundred per cent this rise in tne increase in the price of real estate and in the increased building interest has been superinduced by the increased | commercial and business activity which \< apparent to all observers and the v ,!!,,( f rce school privileges which the town enjoys i large and successful graded school being in operation the railroad shops of the western x c railroad have been located here for 2 years and a hundred or more hands are employed in that institution the wage workers of salisbury receive not less than 2,000 pt>r week in the tobacco works and the railroad shops j all of which runs back into the coffers and tills of salisbury's business men iu addition to these and meronev bros foundry and machine shops j 1 small & bros machine shops mr ; p h thompson of tyro n 0 will shortly erect a foundry and machine shops here which it is expected will supply the trade in agricultural iniple \ nients tobacco boxes and genera | foundry and machine work for this i whole section of the euuntn the people here arc somewhat agi i tated over the proposed erection of i the new county of " lillington j which would take a considerable slice ! of the western portion of the territory : from rowan county we are told that ; not a single man in salisbury is in favor of the divide some months ago a building and i loan association was organized in i salisbury which has added a great deal | to the prosperity of the place about | 300 shares were subscribed at the first ! semi-annual meeting a dividend of , eleven per cent was declared to the | stockholders about 25,000 twentv j live thousand dollars has been loaned 1 out to the members and about twenty | houses have been erected which could ! not have been built without some such agency another thing which had added much to the prosperity of the place within the last year or two is the establishment of a national bank of which major \ s w cole i president and mr i 11 foust as cashier the bank was organ ized with a kml up capital of only 50,000 but after it started in business it became a depository for the surplus nionev in the surrounding country and at the close of business on the 23th of december last an official statement showed that it had in loans and dis counts 137,240.05 many progressive farmers and others hunted up old stockings where the accumulations and savings of years had been stored and put their nionev in the bank where it at once began to pulsate in the life-giv ing activity of commerce and trr.de it j is a fact that the bank last year furnish ed all the money which was paid for every bale of cotton bought on th streets of salisbury and the nionev to buy 2.000,000 pounds of tobacco there are men who curse capitalists an-^ texas is to hive ten new counties or more probably texas ought to be cut up into at least live states and if it lay in the north ten republican senators would soon be in their seats it being in the south if so divided it might be that there would be ten democratic senators hence no divis ion — 117 star mt^informatiom sjagi p£j?fc at tliii season y^tv/ag f|t s v s l r /'<"'* f ra jsl™j tl1 laj3 ~* f ' ' ' '"' r f hpsh»52gk&'f9k y headache k uhtk hf'lws y'vralgia js8gai?||s&2k paint in tho y sides itad jilood 1 tid ignition dyspepsia malarla.consttpativn&kidnetjtrohbles h volina cordial cures rheumatism bntl v.\n |
