Our warehouses all had good breaks
on Friday. Oxford is the place for far
mers to sell tobacco as our buyers all hold
large orders.
The Phantom party at tbe Armory
Hall on Thursday night was a success
financially and was highly enjoyed by the
parties present.
The news from every section of the
district is good. The farmers are working
with all the effort they can. The people
are ready to fall in line.
A. Landis cc Sons have something
special to say to our readers elsewhere.
Be sure and read their advertisement it is

We regret to learn of the burning of
the Parish building in Durham on the
22nd. It was a handsome structure and
was the property of Mr. J. S. Carr.
The Oxford Circuit Parsonage, near
the residence of Mr. Alf. Ilobgood is
rapid lly going up. It will be a two story
building and when completed will add a
great deal to the looks of that block.
At a meeting of the board of town
commissioners, the price for lots in the

srj'jare foot to residents of the town and
7 cents to non residents.
Brower voted for the force bill. He
wants to put LT. S. bayonets at every
ballot-box in his district. Williams would
never do it. He trusts the people and
will defend their rights.
The Durham District Convention of
the Young Men's Christian Association
will meet in Henderson Oct. 31-Nov. 2.
The program is varied and attractive and
a large amount of business for the bene

While Mr. Sim Carrington is feeding
colored voters on honeyed phrases let some

Bro. Dave Whichard, of the Green
ville Reflector; spent Friday and Satur
day in Oxford, lie was fortunate enough
to have some stock in the Oxford Land
and Improvement Company, and visited
our town to look after the lots that fell
to his share.
We get glorious news from Capt.
Baldy Williams. His friends are delight
ed at his brilliant and gallant campaign.
The news we get from him is of the
most cheering character. He will beat
Brower badly and the only question now
what will be his majority.
The Democratic party is the white
man's party to which alone may the peo
ple of North Carolina look for protection

IX THE FIFTH DISTRICT.
Baldy William Ranis the "Blackuals"
Down Brower's Throat.
Special Cor. State Chronicle.
Winston, Oct. 24. Yesterday Hon A.
H. A. Williams and John M. Brower
spoke in the Opera House here to a tre
mendous crowd. The audience was not
exactly bored, but they aroused no such
enthusiasm as seen here Tuesday when
Billy Barber made the water hot enough
to set the hair and gave Tom Settle a shave
so close that I fear his political feathers
will hardly make their appearance again
soon.
Mr. Williams made an earnest speech
and exposed the corruption of theJRepub
lican party. He dwelt upon the fact that
Brower had declared two years ago that
if they would elect him and Harrison,
give the Republicans the House and the
Senate, they would abolish the internal
revenue laws and enact such measures as
would relieve the farmers of their op
pression. He asked the question if they had kept
their word. He appealed to the people
to judge.
Mr .Brower got up and sawed awhile on
our ears and nerves, and I don't think a
single man here can tell you what he
talked about. It was a chestnut and was
here on the last Congressional campaign.
Mr. Williams in his reply rammed the
Farmers' Alliance blackballs down Brow,
er's throat. The latter in his speech made
fun of Williams being an Allianceinan,
whereupon Mr. Williams responded that
he had no special dislike for the Alliance
because it black balled Brower. Hurrah
after hurrah rent the air as he talked to
Jonnin about those black, black balls that
were cast against him.
There were a few colored people in the
gallery who applauded him and I am cer
tain that he gained little and lost much.
To day while in conversation with one
of the best informed men in political
circles in Rockingham county, I was told
that Baldy Williams will carry the county
by 800 votes. Maj J. T. Morehead told
me yesterday that he would certainly
carry Guilford, and that it would not sur
prise him in the least if the Democratic
county ticket is not elected. A Stokes
gentleman to-day told me that Williams
would get a majority of 400 Barber of
250 and Fulton of 200 in the election in
that county and that the whole Democratic
ticket will be elected.
Dr. R. Abernethy on the Unman .Soul
and Mind.
At the Opera House on last Thursday
night, notwithstanding the inclemency of
the weather, and the depth of the subject,
quite a large crowd heard with pleasure
and edification the above lecture. To our
mind, there is nothing more interesting.,
more mysterious and morally instructive
than this study of Physicology.
Before further discussing the lecture,
we will here parenthetically state, that
aside from its intellectual benefit, the
beneficence of its object is aione supplient
to merit the encouragement by contribu
tions of all interested in education.
The Dr. is President of Rutherford Col
lege, N. C, well , known to us all, for its
educational light and beneficence has
been shed throughout the State. He has
held this position for over fifty years, and
in that time, prompted by a desire for the
infusion of education, which he had ex
perienced so great a difficulty in securing
himself, he has educated free of cost
twenty-three hundred young men. Think
of the grandeur of such a motive that can
in these hard times so prompt a man, and
then see if within yourself, you can find
any of these transcending qualities that
will prompt you to merit not only the ad
miration of your friends, but the appro
brium of your Creator by contributing to
this gentleman in his vicissitude for the
accomplishment of his desire, which is to
rebuild his school house and restore its
library, which mysterious Providence de
stroyed by fire last year, leaving only the
clothes he wore, his wife and a black cat.
So you will observe that he is In rather
reduced circumstances, and is now by
these lectures seeking to re-establish the
school. But to return to the lecture, of
which we will briefly express our appre
ciation, for it is too deep for our discus
sion, we close.
When the Doctor announced that he
had made a study of the subjact for 52
years, we prepared ourselves for a very
auspicious discussion of the same, which
he had diagramed upon white canvas,
and we were not disappointed. Oa ac
count of the shortness of the time the
lecture was short and treated sufficiently
superficially for the apt understanding of
his audience and at the same time giving
them a clear e.m.r.iption. of the mechan
ism of our mental being, &c , which he
frequently inter-tp irsed with funny and
illustrative jokes. We wish the Doctor
success in his noble effort, and shall never I
forget tbe benefit received from the lec-1
ture.

HEREA ALLIANCE:
BIG PIC NIC AND A GRAND RALLY OF
DEMOCRACY"
Roneinsr .Speeches 51 a tie ly ex-CSov.
Tar vis, Cien. Cox, A. W. Graham, A.
A. Hiclts and Dr. Blerritt Big: Ii li
ner .Served, and all Enjoyed the Day.
Friday was a field day tor the Berea
Alliance and the Democratic party. The
crowd was large and everybody was in a
good humor and the meeting was a mag
nificent success. Great enthusiasm and
harmony prevailed and the Democratic
forces are intact.
What else could we expact when such
men as ex. Gov. Jarvis, Gen. Cox, A. W.
Graham, A. A. Hicks and D-. Merritt, told
of the beauties of Democracy and the
extensive rottenness of Radicalism.
A. W. Graham spoke first and made a
plain and forcible argument for the cause
of good government, which went right to
the hearts of the people. At the close of
his speech dinner was announced.
The Alliance committee composed of
Messrs. J. T. Reagan, J. T. Murry, T. A.
Riggs, A. A. Gordon and J. II. Duncan,
ably assisted by a quite a number of the
fair daughters of the neighborhood had
spread out upon a long line of tables an
immense array of everything that was
good In fact the dinner was savory and
tempting and everything was managed
decently and in perfect order. Everybody
had plenty to eat and! a superabundance
was left.
After dinner ex-Gov. Jarvis with great
force and power, addressed the audience,
in a plain practical way .
He was followed by the beloyed and
gallant Gen. W. R. Cox. The Gen. spoke
with his usual ability. He was warmly
greeted by his comrades in arms in this
neighborhood, who are ready to follow
whence Cox leads.
The young and talented A. A. Hicks
spoke with much favor and convincing
argument. His thrusts at the inconsis
tencies of Capt. Rusfus Amis captivated
the crowd, who knew that Hicks was
sustained by the facts and Amis is known
to them as a political turn coat. ,
Dr. Merritt spoke words of honest en
thusiasm and with a patriotic glory that
showed he was a patriot and a gentleman
of intelligence. His handsome allusion
to Capt. Baldy Williams and how nobl
Person would stand by this son of Gran
ville was greeted by the crowd with im
mense enthusiasm, as whs also his
reference to Winston for Judge.
The county candidates were on hand
and Messrs. Allen, Adann, Cole, Crews,
Bobbitt, Daniel and Sol. Cooper, did good
work and will poll a good vote ac that
precinct.
The mean course of the Republicans
towards the people of the South and the
advance in the price of the articles of
necessity under the operations of the Mc
Kinley Tariff Bill unite the Democrats
of Granville in solid columns and we
predict a brilliant victory.
It is evident from the success of the
pic-nic at Berea when the people of that
section attempt to do anything they do it
with their whole heart.
All honor to the good people of this
hospitable and highly blessed neighbor
hood. Dr. Dixon's Lecture.
This popular orator and much beloved
gentleman delivered a characteristic lec
ture at the Opera House to a large and
intelligent audience on Friday night.
His subject was " Moths," and although
it may seem to have been a dry subject
he got a great m my baautiful an I r icy
thoughts out of it sparkling as was hi-
lecture with bright hum r and lessoa; of
wisdom. Some p irts of his lecture was
brim full of poetical thoughts that were
handled with artistic skill ai I graceful
ness. Dr. Dixon is a gentlem-m highly
and lavishly favored by nature ari l s -u
times rises to flights of geuuine eloqaenc v
The tie that binds our people to him U
strong, however, by ran m n t of nil i i
tellect alone, but his genial in ianr and
the largeness of his heart, alw.is op.n
to the kindliest sentiments of hum m
nature. North Cirolini should bs proa
of such a worthy and useful so i, whoe
1 Ifft lias been crowned with laudable ef-
forts for the relief and advancem nt of
his kind.
Almost Gone.
The Durham Globe says Rhodes ITern
don who is in jail charged with murder
almost went to his final ivst on Thursday
without a trial. The stove pit e in his
cell got loose in some wy and the smoke
poured in upon him in volumes. He
yelled. and called until he exhausted him
self and became so weak that he could
scarcely move. By some good fortune,
he was discovered in his almost perished
condition and rescued. Dr. Johnson re
mained with him a great part of the night.
It may be said that had Herndon not been
discovered just when he was he would be
before the judgment bar of God, instead
of in a prison cell awaiting his trial on
earth. Judge McRae refused to grant

Last week in an article crmciaingfhe
Republican ticket in Granville we ifici
dently mentioned the fact that Caps R.
P- Ilnghes was the head and front ofltht
Brower campaign in the county and (hat
he was a revenue aflu-er, &c. To thisfthe
Captain took offense and threatened to
whip us.
Now the Public Ledger has alwiyj
avoided offensive personal allusions ii its
columns and shall not lend the use of pui
columns to an attack on any private citi
zen Capt. Hughes included against witom
we have nothing personal, but when C&pt.
Hughes sees fit to take umbrage atf an
article that does not reflect on him er
sonally and threatens to whip us If weUSfr
his name in a political sense in our iol
lumns we most emphatically tell him ha
we shall do so and are perfectly wilfing
to take the consequences. We havei no
special desire to be whipped nor shal we
bring on a personal altercation, biitthe
Captain will find us ready to defend Our
selves. J
We have nothing to retract fromo'last
week's article, and furthermore whenever
we see fit to criticise the methods of Oapt.
Hughes in furthering the politics 1 for
tunes of political demagogue in the shape
of J. M. Brower we shall certainly do'-so.
Capt. Hughes as a private citizens jahd
Capt. Hughes as a revenue officer work
ing for Brower are two different people.
Work Tor Redemption is at Hand.'
Ouly a few days remains when the
great political contest now going on al
over the country will be decided. 1
should b on the part of Democrats a
work of persistent, careful work in Gran
ville, for we have a hard battle to; $ghi
against the enemies of good government,
quietlj lead by Capt. R. P. Hughes, vjlo it
recognized as the had and corner stoifs ol
the Republican party in the county ,anl no
doubt if he had his way along with Blow-
er woul
uld have soldiers standing an-uud
the polls on election day to throtthf thi
voice of the white men ' of GranHllt
county. J :
Work Democrats, every one, for Wil
liams, and the whole Democratic tujket,
because" they represent the principles of
good government, solid, hard work iiust
be done against the men who are J the
opened and avowed enemies of the rights
and liberties we now enjoy. Every nan
with white skin must put forth ea;aest
effort with a determination to win sijid a
resolve to present nothing to remaii un
done to that le ids to success. Worli for
Williams, and the whole Democratic
ticket and success will surely be! the
result. (

The Farmers' Alliance, spealkine
th rough its chosen and authorized oran
Secretary Ileddingfield, declares ftlla
there is no point of friction or cause k;
conflict between the masses of the farm
ers of North Carolina and the Demo
cratic party; and he urges all patronsfof
husbandry in the great field of Agri
cultural industry to lay aside poliial
and old war-worn prejudice and paiijsjin
predilections, and sustain and supjpn
the party which, in eveiy emergency?, Im
all occasions and throughout the dst
twenty years has stood the faithful fsriefid
of the struggling masses. The aipal
comes at opportune moment in the fti'a?rs
of Jour common country, when alljm-an

BEREA MENTIONS.
The morning of the 15th found us en
route to the Mount Zion Association. We
passed through that famous country
known as Shake Rag. This is truly a
fine tract of country, and is destined to
become more famous in the near future
for its fine tobacco if the appearance of
the land has anything to do with it; and
we passed on through a portion of Person
county and into Durham, and we couh
but feel our heart swell as we came it
sight of Reel Mountain and the surround
ing hills in the distance with the blue
mellow hedge crowning their brow After
bumping and jolting all the poetry out of
us we finally succeeded in reaching Red
Mountain church where the Association
met, and found a large and intelligent
congregation. . The introductory sermon
was delivered by that popular and tal
ented gentleman, Rev. J. L. White, of
Durham, after which the Association met
and closed. Mr. W. A. Albright was
Moderator and Mr. C. R. Scott Clerk
There were several visiting preae'rern
among whom wereRvs. C. Durham,.!. N
Booth, J. F. MeDuffie, J. N. Stallings, of
the Thomasville school, and Dr. Taylor
of Wake Forest. Everything passed off
pleasantly and we will only all that it is
seldom we enjoy such a dinner, for they
certainly care for the inner man.
Dr. Atkinson closed a series of niet
ings at Geneva last Sunday.
The Alliance pic-nic on Friday was a
success and we were glad to see so man'
of your Oxford people out among us. We
had splendid speeches by ex-Gov. T. J
Jarvis, Gen. W. R. Cox, A. W. Graham
and A. A. Hicks, Esqs. It was a big day
for Berea, and everybody seemed to en
joy themselves.
COMMUNICATED,
Editor Public Ledger: It was my
pleasure to be at Clays on Monday the
20th to see and hear our noble and tine
looking candidates for Granville count'
discuss the issues of the day , but did not
arrive until some had closed. Our Claud
Allen was about to close when I arriyed
but? I heard enough to satisfy me that he
Is the right man in the right place. He
reminds me very much of his brother
who died In Virginia a. year or so ago,
that the people of Granville loved so
much. It is fresh in my memory to-day
how sad I felt at the death f young
Allen. I had looked and expected to see
the day when he would be one of the first
men in -North Carolina. Now brother
Democrats, let's go to the polls and elect
Claude Allen by a rousing majority, let
ting the High Tariff McKinley Force
Bill Rufus see and know for all time to
come that the white people of Granville
want and will have a better man.
Next came (I think, for I speak from
memory) Mr. Frank Cole, in whose face
is depicted truth, honesty ana upright
ness, declaring to us that in the Demo
cratic party only is there hope for the
people, advocating the free coinage of
silver, in favor of railroad commission,
&c.
Then our W. T. Adams came with his
maiden political speech and I think
of the kind the best it has been my pleas
ure to hear, aud before the close of the
canvass he will wake up the people and
old Dutchville will he proud that ohe ha
such a son as W. T. Adams. Thus much
for law makers.
I did not hear any of our county can
didates but they w?rj pie ent doing the
work. R. J. Daniel was as busy as a bee
and it was said he could get in more
places at the same time than any other
living man and on the fourth of Novem
ber intends to take off his old clothes and
don himself with a nice Suit or the peo
ple will for him. B.
Editor Public Ledger: I was elect
ed constable of Brassfield township
on the Republican ticket in 1886.
but have decided to renounce my
allegience to the Republican party and
will vote the straight Democratic ticket
this year, because the Republican party
has failed to meet its promises in many
instances, and especially la regard to the
tobacco tax. E. G. Davi3.

The reason RADAM'S
MICROBE KILLER ia
most wonderful medicine,
is because it has never
failed in any instance, no
matter what the disease,
from LEPROSY to the
simplest disease known
to the human system.
The scientific men of to
day claim and prove that
every disease is
CAUSED BY MICROBES,
-AND-
Radam's Microbe Killer
Exterminates the Microbes and drives them out
of the system, and when that is done you cannot
have an ache or pain. No matter what the dis
ease, whether a simple case of Malarial Fever or
a combination of diseases, we cure them all at
the same time, as we treat all diseases constitu
tionally. Asthma, Consumption, Catarrh, Tlronchl
tin, Klieumatism, Kidney and Liver Dis
ease, Cliills and Fever, Female Troubles,
in All Its Forms, and, in Fact, Every Dis
ease Known to the Human System.
