The Radicals; and the Third partyites are both enemies of the Democratic party, that party which has vouehd-sate us so many bless ings. Therefore, touch1 not a" candi date of either the base Uad partv or its ally with a Ibrty loot pole. Vote the straight Democratic ticket. It is to the best interest of the good people of this section to con tinue Democratic government. Therefore, when a voter joins the Third party he arrays himself against the best interest of our peo ple, because the tendency of his ac tion is to help the Radicals, with their black record, to obtain control of our aflairs.

Sam Jones, the Raleigh Christian Jdco cate says : "May the Lord bless his coming to Durham with almighty outpouring of the Spirit upon all the people of that place and in those parts, and may a thousand souls be brought to Christ by this his first visit to North Carolina;" . be-n wonderful, and there is great demand for him everywhere. As a preacher he has his peculiar ities. He savs a great manv things that sound rough and harsh but he vhas a wonderful influence and is truly a -master of assemblies.'' hen you hear him your prejudices formed against him give way, and in the face of the great work he ac complishes his utter disregard of oratory and refined speech is for given and forgotten.

C. J., and V. M. Rogers made an assignment to day. Mr? V. Ballard is the assignee, from whom we learn that it is probable every dollar due by the firm will be paid. Tlie exact amount of liabilities and assets is not yet known. The as signment was necessitated by a fail ure to collect accounts due. We hope the firm will soon be on its feet again and that better luck will attend it next time. KEV. SAM P. JONES. . We find in the Ralcigit Christian Advocate of this week, the following sketch of the life of Rev.' Sam. P. Jones, the great evangelist, who arrived in Durham today and will begin a series of meet nigs' at Par rish's warehouse to-night : "Rev Sam P.; Jones, was born in Chambers county, Alabama, Oct. 16th, 1847, and was therefore 41 years' of age yesterday, lie was reared at Cartersville, Ga., where he still has his home. His ancestors were good, pious people. Four of his uncles are ministers of the Gospel.' His mother, to whom lie often alludes, calling her "my precious mother," died when young Sam was only eight years of age. 1 His maternal gramf mother was noted for her piety and used to pray : in public J with great power. His lather, Capti John J. Jones, was a lawyer of note -in Georgia, and w as distinguished for his;intclligence and piety. lie educated Sain for the practice of law, but like a great many other young men Sam greatly disappointed his father.t He indulged in dissipation until lie became a drunkard and seemed to be reckless and without hope of: reformation. His poor old i father was greatly baffled and mortified : and, almost broken hearted, he laid down to die. While on his deathbed he made a last effort to get Sam to reform. As the old man approached his dying hour his faith was grandly triumph ant over. death his dying chamber was full of his expressions of Chris tian triumph. This greatly im pressed his son, and just before he died Sam, overcome with grief and repentance, fell down by his father's dying bed and cried : "I'll quit ; I'll quit ! God be merciful to me a sin ner."! The death of the father saved the son from that hour his whole life was changed. He? was at once called to' preach, and in October, 1872, in Atlanta, was received on trial . into the North Georgia Conference of the M. E. Church, South. His .wife bitterly opposed his preaching and told him she would leave him forever if he became a preacher. The night be fore he was to start to Conference, it is said, she told him she would leave him for her father's the. next morning if he left " for Conference. He was firm in his purpose. That night his wife was taken very sick with something like cholic and be came so seriously ilUhat she thought she was going to die. She promised the Lord if he would relieve her that Sam might go' and join Conference. This settled the matter. His first charge was Van Wert cir cuit, where he was very popular, and remained three years. In he went to De Soto circuit and re mained two years. Here his wonder Will Vote the Straight Ticket. ..The following card from Mr. Zack Dickey has the ring of true Demo cratic metal : South Lowkll, Di uiiam Co., October PJ, LS.SS. To tiif Voters i,f Durham and Orawje Counties : Owing to a heated controversy be tween'the Democratic candidate for the Legislature, for Durham countv and myself, there st ems to besomV misapprehension as to my political position. I expect to do" as I hav always 'done vote the straight Ih'inoi raif ticket through, lrom Pres ident to township constable, fiom Alpha to Omega. I vote for princi ples, not men. Very nspectfu!l v, Zack Di ki:y. To Our Business Men. We renew the suggestion that all places of business close next week at 7:00 o'clock, p. in , daily, in order that the business men and their em ployes may attend the night services of the meetings conducted by Rev. Sam Jones. This is no idle sugges tion and we hope it will be favorably acted upon by. every one of our busf ness houses. Don't be afraid of los ing a few dollars by closing. Eter nal interests are involved interests that will live after all earthlv things are dead. It" you are hesitating in t he matter seriously propound to yourseit the question: "What shall it profit a man if lie gam the whole world and lose his own soul?" To keep the young men awav from the meetings may mean to keep them out of heaven. Give them the oppor tunity to go to the services and invite them to go. Again we say let all the business houses be closed promptly at i o clock. Sixx-ial to The Plnt.
