Durham sends warm greetings to Oxford, upon the flattering prospects of the early completion of the exten sion of the Oxford & Clarksville rail road, to this place. The last issue of the Oxford TorcUiqht commenting upon this work says: "This contract calls for the completion of the road by August the first To do this, work will have to begin at once and be carried on with great , rapidity. The contractors are men of experience and ability, and we have no doubt but that they will fulfill their contract to the letter. This will put Oxford n an equal footing with the other tobacco markets of the State, and this is all we ask. We have .always stood among the first, notwithstand ing the fact that our f night facilities have been almost the poorest in the State. Now with the Oxford & Clarksville railroad, and the exten sion to Durbam, our facilities will eaual those of any of our sister mar kets. With these and other ad van. tages in the way of internal improve mentf, we do not deem it .too great an estimate to say that Oxford will doublo its population during' the next two years." Durham wishes Oxford all success, and the completion of this road will be but another strong tie between us Tobacco Growers Association The following committee has been appointed by the President of the late Farmers Convention, whose duty it Is to promulgate a plan for the or ganization of a Tobacco Growers' As i -- f . .1 v-.n.

If you can show me how three men can sit down to play a game of seven up and at the end one ha won $10 and the other two haven't lost it, then I will will give up the argument I have heard a story that the three lit brew children in the fiery furnace, to pacs away the time swapped knives and each made f 1 50 anil had the best knife.

I beg you all to return from the errors of the dark ages and ignorance, and come to tho times of trade absolutely free except as far as the interests of the government are concerned." ; The West comes out strongly for Judge A C.
