A.Taylor as his chief Deputy. Incendiary Fire at Green's. The loss of Mr. John Hall by the burn ing of his pack house and stables was a heavy one. The fact that it was the work of incendiaries has caused great indig nation in that part of the county. The neighbors sympathizing with the unfor tunate gentleman in loosing his whole crop which was largely the labor of his own hands and that of his family which imparts a particularly sad feature to the calamity. Mr. Hall is an industrious far mer and his misfortune has been so seri-: ousthat we leain his neighbors are mak ing up a subscription to somewhat repair hts loss. Rev. W. L. Cnnning-grim The connection of this excellent minis ter will necessarily be terminated after this year according to the time honored custom of the Methodist Church. This fact is a matter of great regrefto this community where Mr. Cunninggim has a host of friends who esteem him as a good pastor, intelligent preacher and most worthy citizen. His uniform urbanity, and sound common sense tended to give success to his christian labors and his great usefulness as a pastor. In what we say of him we have hardly done justice to this minister whose departure from our midst creates a void that it will be quite difficult for his succassor to fill. For Speaker. Mr. W. T. Adams has been urged for Speaker of the House In the next Legis lature. He has not aspired to the posi tion on his own motion, but his name has been presented by his friends, who know of his sound practical sense and his prom inent position in the county as President of the County Alliance. We do not wish to disparage the claims of others but trust that Mr. Adams' claim will be duly con sidered. Granville has sent a delegation of farmers to the Legislature, men who till the soil and we hope they will all re flect credit on themselvea'and the county. Gland Allen, our Senator, and Frank Cole, our Representative in the House and col league of W. T. Adams, we believe will make most worthy Representatives. itch cured in 30 minutes by Woolford's Sanitary Lotion. Sold by J. G. HalJ, Druggist, Oxford. odd on si ii:kiok court.

Col.I'olk Will Probably be Re-olerted President. There was an informal meeting of Alliance delegates at the opera house at Ocala, Fla., Dec. 2. A lively sensation is promised during the convention, in a series of charges to be preferred against C. W. Macune, chairman of the National Alliance executive committee. He is charged with illegal dealing in reference to the Georgia State Senatorship and with perverting the purity and dignity of his office in half-a-dozen ways. How the investigation will be brought up has not yet developed. Glover, of Kansas, is spoken of as the candidate for President of the Farmers' Alliance, though it is thought likely that Polk will be re-elected. The convention held its first official session at noon today. The reading of the President's address and reports of officers will consume the day. Alliance membership is shown to be growing rapidly ana the finances of the order are in good shape. President Polk's address is a long and masterly review of Alliance movements and treats of Alliance relations to the country, the dangers of the government and the way to avoid them. R. Ryster, Esq. This young member of the Oxford bar made a fine impression by his argument in the Ab Clark case. He has always been considered a gentleman of promise, who was likely to make his mark in his profession, b it his speech created for him quite a reputation and he is destined to win both honor and clientage in his pro fession by his learning and ability, a pre diction of whose fulfillment we do not doubt and chronicle with pleasure. The Soldiers' Home. In this issue will be found an appeal, signed by Mr. J. S. Carr, President of the North Carolina Veterans' Association.
