Kocster lias boon :t|) pointed Collector of Internal liovcnue. Another net in the pla.v of McTmurin Democracy. Tnr. success of a nowspupor depends upon the interest taken it*, its welfare by the public, ami the aid that it receives from t his source. The year is drawing toward its close and there are many, to whom we have advanced the paper, still hehiud with the dues which they honestly owe. We are forced to ask them to come in and settle these dues. We sent the paper in perfect good faith, we need the inonep now and we must have it. In some parts of the county the soil is well adapted to the growing of pears. Many who do not grow the fruit for market, have planted u few trees in their gardens and realize from them more than enough for family use. It would be easy to get up a good exhibit of pears for the Exposition. Fine specimens of the Keifer pear can be seen any day in riding through the country. r? ? . - . some -pecimens should Do secured at once before it is too late. Rooskvklt's expressions of good feeling toward the South may have raised him somewhat in the estimation of some Southern people, but the etTectof *u '^expressions, if any, is doubly oflfsi by his dining a ne gro. In fact vc do not think the southern people will ever be able to forget this circu mice, no matter what the Pres'uhnt's policy toward the South may be. Such an act may appear allright to the President's mind, yet we hardly see how it can. But of this we arc sure, that the dining of a negro by the President, i$ an act. which fills southern poo pie with disgust. U.W.WU* ? Something Much Needed. It is to be regretted that, some means of lighting lire can not be provided for the town.

But, with the apparent passing of the danger inter- ; est in this important matter has en tirely ceased. Such things are no longer talked about, but are j eleg.v j tod to the forgotten past, until the i senses are again awakened by the recurrence of the calamity.
