CARTER, Elizabeth City, at a more convenient season. ALBEMARLE 1 ARK FAIR. It HOW rests with the people to say whether we shall have a good Fair or not. The managers have endeavored to leave no stone unturned to make this the best Fair on record. Reader, listen Do you approve of Fairs? Do you think it a good thing to improve our agricultural resources? Do vou think we are better off for having fine stock? Does it pay us better to raise our horses or buy the old "street car" plugs brought to us from the large cities? Have not our people been stimulated to raising better, milch cows? Ten years ago no cow appeared on the tax list for more than ten dollars valuation.

Look now on the tax list of Elizabeth City Township and you can find several valued at from forty to fifty dollars, and could not be bought for double this amount. Ten years ago we were severely criticized by strangers visiting our section, for having such poor and inferior stock. 1 hey would return disgusted with our country. How is it now compared with then? It needs no mention. Everybody can bear testimony to our won derful achievements and rapid progress.

Now one more question. Have not Fairs done, something toward bring ing about these improvements? If so, we feel sure the people will feel enough interest this year to not only come, but when they come bring something for exhibition. mi A Lrqe Sals Or Negroes. The sale of negroes took place last weetw here that has ever been known in the Albemarle section. Jack the Boodler negotiated the sale for the consideration, it is supposed, of $500, or perhaps a bobby new coat.

The parties' interested were candidate Pool and Riddick Gatling, Pool got $1500, or a nobby near bat. Riddick gets Pool's old shoes. The negroes are to be delivered to Riddick at the polls in "blooak of five" by Jack the Boodler. We think Jack will hive a "monkey and parrot time" when he comes to deliyer his live stock and will sputter worse than ever. We fear Riddiok is 'sold" instead of the negroes, for Pool is a "Peter Slicker'' and Jack the Boodler is a "Slick Peter." We say unto you, Riddick, watch I and again we say unto you, watch 1 your pur chase is cheap if the goods are deliver ed, but you are dealing with the "devil's own." Gates county people; are smart, but a Gates county man is now in the soup with a set of oily, slippery, slickery, gammony, unprincipled political desperadoes that will sell the negroes and sell you if they can, Riddick.

Watch 1 watch I I watch 1 My friend and 1 1 1 1 Jack is a runnsr and Pool is as hard to hold as an eel. Run Riddick for your life! Tou and your father, the old man Riddick, who gave you his name and property, were wool-dyed Democrats. Sell not your birthright for goods that will net be deliyered, and watoh, like wise, the two Slickers," who, we suppose, are to be deliyered at the polls with the negroes sold and see to it that you are not "sold yourself. Marriages. The Methodist Church of this place was the scene of a bril liant marriage on Wednesday at noon in the presence of a large and interested gathering of friends from this and other cities.

The occasion was the union of Ms. Charles Bell, of Baltimore, and Miss Etta Burgess the pretty and charming daughter of Mr. J. H. Burgess.

Rey. E. M. Jordan sol. emnized the nuptials.

The church had been handsomely and artistically decorated for the occasion by loving hands with floral garlands and designs, and produced a delightful effect. The wedding march was beautifully ren dered by Mas. Thompson and the music was continued in soft and Bubdued strains throughout the ceremony. The bride was richly attired in a wedding gown of white silk entrain and carried a large bouquet of bride's rosos. Her ornaments were diamonds, the gift of the groom.

The maid of honor was Miss Bell, of Baltimore, sister of the groom; and the other attendants were Miss Kate Pailin, Mr. John BurgesB, Miss Edith Roache, of Hagerstown, Mr. Wallace Bell, of Baltimore, Miss Maggie Bell and Mr. W. F.

Burgess, Miss Eva Pailin and Mr. Walter Bell, Miss Mary Griggs and Dr. S.P. Graham. The ushers were Messrs.

Frank Dexter, Robert Whitehurst and Charles Martin. The party was preceded by Misses Nannie Burgess and Lucy Bell, The brides maids were attired in evening drees and carried bouquets.There was no reception, only a luncheon to the Immediate relatives and bridal party Mr. and Mrs. Bell left on the 2:30 train for an extended bridal trip. The presents were numerous and handsome and attested the love and esteem in which the young couple were held.

Wednesday evening at half past seven there-was celebrated in Christ Church a wedding which was the leading so, cial event of the season. The large edifice was filled with the many friends of the happy couple. The high con' tractimg parties were Mr. Percy Vrughan and Miss May Whit comb only daughter of Mr. A.

T. Whitcomb of Newberne. Promptly at the hour named the strains of the wedding march Loengrln, performed on the organ by Mrs Temple, the party entered the main aisle of the Church proceeded by the ushers. Mr. Robert Whitehurst and Wilson Hollowell.

The public mind of the Albemarle section has been exercised over the outcome of a deal at Hertford Court between the Third Party and the Tublican party The bargain Is complete, the fusion made, the money consideration paid. Pool, the 'Publican, is out with a card, Gatling is in with a card, Jack, the Boodler is flush, and the happy fam ily are lying down together In the col ored Republican organ of this town. The question is asked, how much money was paid to Pool for the sell-out, how much did Jack the boodler, get and how much did the Third Party pay Pool and Jack? Well, thoy are hard questions to answer and can be answered onlv by approximation and conjecture Perhaps it was much, perhaps little- Pool has a nobby new hat, and Jack has a bobby new coat.

The hat cost probably one dollar and a half, and Jack the boodler 's bobby new coat must have cost two dollars and a quarter, bo the candidate for Congress and Jack the boodler, must have gotten $3.75 between them. Now this is much short of $2000 which Jack the Boodler was dickering for at Hertford. Undoubtedly, Pool got $1.50, which haridly paid him for the paper on which he wrote his senseless card. But perhaps Jack wrote Pool's card. Its mendacity its clumsiness, its want of continuity and its stupidity are like his conspicuous ear marks.

Perhaps a few days may develop something of the deal, for such bargain and oqrrup tion, like "murder, will out." Pool's card is long, prosy and mighty dull We Don't Want To But by Jingo If we do, we've got the men, We've got tha ships and we've got the money, too.
