Clay, of Hargrove, railed to see us on Monday. Our farmers aro greatly delayed in b irning plant beds. Mud is the most absorbing question with our people just now. Still in the mud the Commonwealth Club. It will probably bloom this spring- The building of the Oxford & Coast Line Railroad will double the trade of Oxford. Mr. II. L. Davis takes the road this week in the interest of the Kicks Tobacco Company. --The building of the Oxford fe Coast Line Railroad will double the value of Oxford real estate. Miss Mamie Harper, of "Warren ton, is spending a few days in Oxford with Mrs. O. O. "White. Rev. J. R. Floyd, of Wilton, spent several days in town this week the guest of Dr. D. T. White. Mr. J. R. Currin, one of our good farmers, spent several days in Raleigh during the past week. All our warehouses had splendid breaks during the past week, and prices were very satisfactory. The building of the Oxford & Coast Line Railroad will doable the population of Oxford in three years. Rev. J. A. Speight, one of the accom plished editors of the Biblical Recorder, visited Oxford on Saturday. The good people of Salem Township j will soon have a station at JIuntsviile on J the Oxford & Henderson Railroad. i JJUH 1UiOI Dorsey, one of our thrifty farmers, has gone to the Davis School at Winston. We heard an old citizen remark on Monday that the streets of Oxford were worse than they had been for 40 years. South Oxford is still booming. The Modern Barn Company will erect several cottages for the use of their emploj-ees. We would be pleased to have a cor respondent at Stem. Will not some charming young lady take up her pen? Messrs. Hundley Bras, have their tel ephone in full blast. It will be of uutold advantage to these enterprising gentle men. Our excellent Representative W. T. Adams introduced in the House the past week a bill to charter the Oxford & Coast Line Railroad. Oxford will have to wake up on the Durham & Northern connection if she wishes to at least hold the trade of South ern Granville. Two of Dutchville's facinating young ladies. Misses Fleming and Waller, spent a few days this wek with the family of Mr. W. L. Mitchell. The first link in the oh run of the Ox ford & Coast Line Railroad will bririfc back to Oxford the valuable putronige of the Southside Beaver D im section. We trust our excellent town fathers will find it in the goodness of their hearts to put the. side walks leading to th new passenger depot in nst-clas8 condition. Rev. Joseph Ronnie, the new Chap lain of the Granville Gray, delivered an excellent sermon before the eo:apnny at the Opera House on Sunday afternoon last. We learn that Snpt. Winston, of the Knitting Mills, is anxious to secure the services of 8 or 10 smirt girls. Good wages can be male and the work is light and clean. Our tobacco market is the peer of any in the State, and farmers never fail to get the highest prices for tobacco. Bring or ship to Oxford and you will be pleased. The supplementary clause to Salem Township bill is that the township shall be liable to its proportionate share of taxes of Oxford township for railroad purposes. Capt. W. II.

All interested can obtain full particulars hy addressing Hon. K. P. Battle, Presi dent of the Institution. The Board of Directors of the Or phan Asylum met at that institution on Friday. Among the business transacted if. was decided to have a Masonic Cele bration at the Asylum St. John's Day, Jnne 2 4th. Senator Peffer, of Kansas, will be invited to deliver the address. , We had the pleasure during the past week of adding a large number of new subscribers to our list. We now enjoy a splendid circulation in the county and our business men would do well to con sider this fact. Now is the time to send in your advertisements, and let the peo ple know what you have got to sell. In our last issue we stated that the Meadows warehouse, under the manage nient of Messrs. Hunt, Cooper 6s Co., had sold tobacco since the first of Octotc r at an average of 13 per hundred. It s1 Id have been $13 58. This is hard to oeat aud shows conclusively that Oxford is the best all-round leaf market in the State. - Messrs. T. D. Waller and B. F. Hester of the committee on building a Work house and the improvement of the Court House have returned from inspecting the Court Rouses and workhouses ii Ala- is the object of the committee to get the most economical and feasible plans for the work they have before them. Mr. J. M. Currin, the representative of the American Tobacco Co. here and one of the largest and most successful farmers of this county, sells his crop on the Oxford market No market in the State surpasses Oxford and he knows it. In his connection we might remark that whilst cutters do not bring what they once brought or what the farmers think they ought to bring, yet there is no mar ket in or outside the State where they will bring more money than in Oxford. There is no more constant and attentive buyer anywhere than Mr. Currin and he always sees that the farmer who sells cut ters on the Oxford market is not left. More Facts. One of the rules of the Board of Trade in Oxford positively prohibits thed um ming or buying of tobacco after it is lorded for market. Davis & Grego?y tvy to keep their pledges and tLey ae vleded to -this law under the following article of the by raws : "To the faithful compliance on our part with the forego'ng rules, ootn in letter and spirit, to ibe Lest of our understand ing and ability, and to aid as far as in of power to enforce the same we individu ally and mutually pledge ourselves. " I? you have a nice line of cutteis &end them to Da-vis & Gregory. There is no market under tbe sun where they will bring you more money than Oxford. Tiy it. New orders and new buyers are con tinually being added to the O Ti"o:d mr. ket. It was never in a healthier condi tion. All grades and classes of tobacco sre being eagerly sought from trash to the finest wrappers. Now is the time to si in it to Davis & Gregory. High tide. Now is the time to "get in the swim" and drive right to Davis & Gregory's warehouse. Nobody will work for you harder or ruacn greater sacrifices that you may have the mil worth of you. tobacco. Don't crawl back in your wagon or pull down your bat over your face. Remem ber Davis & Gregory won't drum you or "pin hook" when you get to market. How about Davis & Gregory? Oh, they are all right ! shout the farmers in wagons from Granville and adjoining counties. They know how to sell tobacco and they never stop bidding until they have got each pile to the top notch of the market. Why is it such an easy matter for Davis & Gregory to get good prices for tobacco? Plain enough. Why they have worked for and helped to build up at Oxford the finest all round tobacco market in the State. The buyers appreciate this and farmers all know 5t. Dhvie & Gr'xory have saved to the formers of Granville and Person thous ands of dollars by sending them word v hen there was a rise in tobacco, and not; buying their tobacco when the farmer j was ignorant of it. Is this ndt a point worth considering when you have pat : ronage to bestow ? Help us and we will ' help you. ' FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1891. AROUND GRANVILLE. THE FARMERS' ALLIANCE AND INTEREST PROTECTED, ITS What is Going on in Different Sec lions as Gathered Sy the Public l.eu'srer Reporters Views of Corres pondents. Af. ! THE ROADS. . , gome tj j concluded to write &JJ articie on the condition of the public roads of Granxille county; but after trav- j ling over them, my conclusion is : changed, for I feel that I nor any other man can do the subject justice It is my misfortune, just at this time, to have, to travel the Raleigh road which, because of the mud, is terrible. The Oxford Land and Improvement Company in the good ness of its - heart, which seems to be a characteristic of the same, has to some extent lightened the difficulty of travel by permitting the use ot a street upon its property. B. FISHING CREEK. We are glad to know that application has been made to the Legislature for a charter of a railroad to be built from Oxford to Stanhope, in Nash counts'. That this charter will be granted "goes without saying." We are glad to learn that among the charter members our im mediate neighborhood is represented by such good men as B. A. Capehart and Spotswood Burwell. Fishing Creek township should take great interest in building this road and-we believe will, even to the extent of voting an assess ment of $3,000 or $0,000 in the way of taxation. The building this road will secure to the township not less than two depots one at Dickerson's, the other at Fairport the advantages of which would be beyond computation. Oxford is at the mercy of a railroad system she should spare neither "time or money to change she is entirely at the mercy of one railroad. And strange spnducements so long when she has another railroad within three miles of her. If Oxford will build a branch road to Dickerson's and establish a depot there, we aie cer tain Fishing Creek will vote to be taxed $5,000 to help bring it on to Fairport with the agreement that a depot shall be made at the last named place. J. B. II BULLOCK DOTS. Miss Bettie Pittard has returned from short visit to her sister, Mrs L. A. Rogers, Oi Adoniram. Mr. G. H. Faucette left for Milton this week to sell his crop of tobacco. which was shipped there' from Bullock's a few days ago. ine nan completed residence near Bullock's formerly the property of M Earle, who died some weeks ago, was purchased last week by Mrs. Jennie Roys ter Mrs. Annie Harrison completed her term at Grassy Creek school house last Friday, and intended taking a school near Blue Wing, for the Spring term, but was prevented by the sickness of her mother. Mr. Nat Riggins, who has been in very delicate health for a year, with that fatal desease, consumption, is rapidly declin ing. It is so sad to see one cut down in the bloom of youth, when life seems so full of ioy and hope, but Death's impar tial hand spares neither young nor old. Our most excellent depot Agent, Mr. James Pittard, informs me that on Wed nesday last there were upwards of six thousand pounds of tobacco shipped from here to Oxford, Henderson and Clarks- ville markets, and still have on hand some large shipments to make to Milton. The sale of tickets and amount of freight shipped to and from this place are largely on the 'ncrease and the express buseness has more than thribbled itself in the past three months. Trump. WHITE ROCK ITEMS. The Farmers' Alliance has established a first-class school at White Rock under the Hall. The most beautiful and ac complished Miss Sally Hunt i3 teaching. She has just commenced with 24 pupils; expects several more. Parents can find no better school in the country in which to send their children. lne young bachelors have to ride by and take a pep very often." Some of the fair sex are very bewitching to the young fellowp. It seems they could alnyst raise some of them into the seventh heaven of happi ness with a glance of the eye alone. The Farmers' Alliance is still on the ncrease in our community. I think it has come to stay, and 1 look for giat changes in political issues during the next five years, but it's time they came. What we want is laws which will build up and maintain our rural people in pros perity. They are the nation's strengtn and ought to be the nation's pride. Undr existing circumstances it takes all they can raise on their farms to support them even when we have the most bountiful crops. The home market cry is simply a fraud. When crops are plenty farmers get next to nothing for their crops, and it is only when they haven't anything to r sell that prices are good. I think the farmers are coming to understand the state of their case pretty well nn'i to see that if they expect any help it mu; come from themselves or their Creator. i-N. . 9, WILTON WHISPERING Oxford is destined to be the fia5t and best tobacco market in the State, Vith six large warehouses, the most liberal corps of buyers on any market and warehouse men second to none. We are having seasons for stripping to bacco at last, the first this year. Many of the farmers dug pits and have been stripping all the winter. The cr p is being marketed rapidly. . Should that petition to the Legislature' which was handed around in Oxford on Monday, asking that the appropriation for public schools be not increased, be sent up we think the Legislature will double the school tax, believing tiat ed ucation is badly needed in old Grfwille. No plant beds burned yet as the j round has been either frozen or wet neatly all tue winter.

Please write to Post Master Wanamaker and have him trace up the Ledgeji or find out which post office that neglects to forward it, as the subscribers at this place do not get their paper in eight or ten days. The Ledger is becoming a household necessity ; it is the first paper the children call for when we come from the office but poor little things tUey we.it until we old folks have first tead it. The Ledger and Breeders Guide should be in every home in Granville county. Durham and Henderson are making ef forts Ndravv trade f rb'Li this section and But, as an Aliianceman, I must say to the drummers from Oxford while in the Eastern counties, "tote fair" as the old colored man said. Do not mis represent our Alliance S arehouse in Ox ford by stating it has no backing, nobody to push the tobacco, &c, for it 5Uis the backbone of old Granville, and planters in reserve should it need strengthening. Brother B. F. Knott is authorized to jnake eyery pound of tobacco bring its full value on the floor. r ; I think some of the merchants: oi Ox ford are lesiug trade by not advertising in the Ledger. Some of our neighbors who were in town a few days agojw'&nted salt; came home without it. sayiug there was not a sack in Oxford ; and the next day we were in town, and passing down Commercial avenue, happened to enter one of the finest grocery stores: in the city and the first thing that greeted our vision was a large lot of salt, and Jet none in of Oxford. By the way, what has jbecome Mr. W. who used to do business on Commercial avenue? We have? traded considerably with him, but could iot find him at the old stand, nor his advertise ment in the Ledger, therefore jwe con cluded he had quit business orr moved away to another town. And Messiis. H. & Co. used to be on College street. Where are they? We missed from thjeir old stands several merchants with whjooi we have traded ; have they retired os moved to another part of the city ? If thjry wish the country trade, why they musit let us know where they are, so we can find them without referring to the directory. We read the Ledger, advertisements and everything else. s Lux. Mr. McGiirs Spoecli.

An incendiary fire at Gibson station a few days ago destroyed the barn and stabler of Edward Gibson, together with seventeen horses and a large number of agricultural implements The town has no fire department The noise, made by the suffering horses was horrible and not on? of the animals was saved. The Western North Carolina railway suffers quite a severe loss by the wreck of three bridges between Dillsboro and the mouth of the Tuckasque river, which were swept away yesterday by the break ing of a boom which held logs at a saw mill.
