Britt is now attend ing the Davis School at Winston. Mr. W. R. Currin. one of our honor able farmers, called to see us on Saturday. We ask you to read the change in the advertisement of A. Landis & Sons on the second page. Mr. A. A. Overton, a prosperous to bacco grower of Fishing Creek, paid us a visit Wednesday. Mr. George P. Roberts, of Stem, and Miss Jennie Markham, tf Wake, were married on the 18th. Mr. I). A. Moore will remove his stock of harness from Wall street to the old Grandy store on Main street. Miss Addie Travers, the accomplish milliner of A. Landis & Sons, is North purchasing a handsome stock of Spring millinery. Mrs. Holly, the mother of Mrs. Dr.J. M. Hays, who has been visiting Oxford re- ' turned to her home in Chowan county Tuesday. The Supreme Court has decided the following case from Granville: Ferrabow vs. Green; modified, each party to pay one half cost of the court. The postoffice Inspector visited Ox ford on Friday, and we are pleased to learn found everthing all right In our post office under the management of Mr. Sikes. Our gallant Congressman, A. H. A. Williams, was in Springfield, 111., when Palmer was elected Senator. lie also grasped the hands of Senator Peffer and Uncle Jerry Simpson while out west. If our Land Companies and business men will give us sufficient encouragment we will issue a ten thousand boom edition for the benefit of our town and county in April. We will give $50 towards it. Wrhat do you say gentlemen ? Dr. J. G Hunt informs us that he is not one of the many aspirants for the mayorship, but is anxious to sell all the tobacco he can for the highest prices. In the language f Fairbrother he is a "win ner with tusks" in that line. Oxford is now being surrounded on all sides by progressive and wide-awake towns, and unless we get down to busi ness we will certainly lose a large share of the trade that belongs to Oxford. This is no idle talk, but plain hard facts. The celebrated musical organization, McGibeny Family, wera greeted with the largest house on Wednesday evening that ever assembled in Oxford. Every availa ble space was occupied and the perform ance was of the highest order showing the musical talent possessed by this wonder ful family. Messrs. Bullock & Mitbhell did not stop selling tobacco on account of .the. burning offices as their usual sales took place the morning of the fire. Their warehouse floor is all right and are pre pared to pay the very highest market price for all tobacco entrusted to them Bring your tobacco to Oxford and help us to build up your county town. Mr. L. E. Wright, who has for a long time been connected with the hardware house of J. F. Edwards', has commenced to open up a stock of dry goods, shoes, fcc, in the store room formerly occupied by Tt. L Hunt & Co He will let the readers of the Ponuc Lemer know what he has on hand for sale next week, but in the mean time call and see him. Our young friend, T. L. Blalock, son of Mr. Milton Blalock, ho has been at tendtng John Hopkins University at Bal timore, Md." is now connected with the Agricultural Experiment Station at Ral eigh, and is engaged in examining fertil izers. It affords us great pleasure to note the advancement of our Granville young men. Tuesday night some one tried to wreck the train from Durham near Oxford by placing a heavy piece of timber across the track. As good luck would haye it the engine struck it with such force as tc break it into throwing the pieces on aach side of the track. Up to now .there is no clue to the perpetrator of this foul act. There was a large number of passengers on board and narrowly escaped a serious accident. Tooacco continues to roll in and the prices are stiff and all who sell In Oxford are well satisfied. We urge our farmers to stand by and patronize the market of their county town. Suppose we all should leave home to do our selling and buying tl en our county would become bankrupt and grass would grow in the streets of towns and villages. Have pride enough to help build up your own county and the towns within her borders. Let us al 1 pull together for the benefit of each other. PQO "fiDD Senator Gorman, of Maryland. Arthur Pue Gorman, United. States senator from Maryland, was born in that state March 11, 1839. His edu cation was re ceived in the pub lic schools. Early in life he became a senate page, and advanced step by step till he became col lector of internal revenue for the fifth district of Maryland. Grant removed him in 1869. In 1872 he Arthur pue gorman. became president of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal com pany. In 1869 he was chosen to the Maryland legislature, was elected to the state senate in 1873, and in 1880 was sent to th. United States senate. In 1886 he was re-elected to that high office. FIRKI OXFORD 9IOXDAY. Tlie Iriz.e House of Rransford Jk Cooper IS ii r ned Willi Other RuildiugfS. On' Monday morning at 4:30 o'clock the immense prize house, on llerndon ave nue, owned by Dr. H. C. llerndon, and occupied by Messrs. Bransford & Cooper, leaf dealers, was discovered on fire and every effort was made by our citizens to stay the progress of the flames, but to no purpose, and the building with three other tenant houses near by were totally destroyed, two belonging to Dr. llerndon and one to Col. R. J. Mitchell. The wind was blowing and burning shingles were carried to different portions of town setting fire to several buildings but they were discovered in time not to do a large amount of damage. The roof of the stables ot Mr. J F. Royster caught in a large number of places, and it took good work on the part of our people to put out the fire. Two small frame buildings near the hardware store of Mr. J. F. Edwards belonging to Dr. llerndon, caught from the flying shingles but were put out. The storage houso of Mr. Edwards, Cozart, Rogers & Co.'s prize house, Mrs. King's boarding house, and the old Grandy store now owned by Col. C. M. Rogers all caught from the flying embers that Allied the air, but owing to the prompt and he roic acts of our people they all were put out and no other damage was sustained by our citizens. The losses are estimated as follows: Dr. H. C. llerndon, prizery $5,500, insur ance $2,500 ; Dr. H. C. Herndon, brick tenement house $500, no insurance ; Dr. II. C. Herndon, wooden tenement house $250, no insurance ; Bransford & Cooper, stock of tobacco $2,000, insurance $1,000; E. O Bransford, furniture, etc., $300, no insurance; Col. It. J. Mitchell, wooden tenement house $250, no insurance ; Bul lock & Mitchell, tobacco stored in the Herndon prizery $800, insurance $500; J. F. Royster, damage to livery stable $100, insured; J. F. Edwards, damage to storage house $100, no insurance. Mr. E. G. Bransford roomed in his prize house and his only companion was a faithful pointer dog, who was no doubt the cause of saving his master's life While the fire was burning and Mr. Bransford was sound asleep the dog barked louder and louder, and at last roused him from his slumbers. He took in the situation at once and quickly got outside and gave the alarm with his dog behind him. Mr. Bransford went back to safe some of his effects and the dog returned with him, and when he came out again from some cause or other shut the door, leaving his poor dog to suffer cremation by the flames. The cause of the fire is not known, but it is supposed to have caught in a closet by a match ignited by rats. Messrs. Bransford & Cooper are ener getic, wide-awake men, and will go right on with their business in other quarters. A Oreat Remedy for Domestic Ani - mals. Go to J. G.

Capt. C. G. Elliott, of Norfolk, Va., the Hon. Gilbert Elliott, of St. Louis, Mo., and Warren G. Elliott, Esq., of Wilming ton, N. C, the distinguished President of the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad, were on a visit to their mother during the week. The many friends of Mrs. Elliott, and their name is legions, will be glad to learn that she Is better, and we hope soon to see her genial face on our streets again greeting her friends with her wonted cor diality.

THE FARMERS' ALLIANCE AND INTEREST PROTECTED, ITS What Is Going on In Oltt'ereut See tiona aa Oathered by the Public Ledger Reporters Vi of C'orrem pondeuts. le. DABNEY DOINGS. The smoke of plant bed fires can be seen in all directions as the land dries. Very few oats have been sown in this section owing to the protracted wet spell and scarcity of seed. The farmers are behind with their plowing, but as the land is getting in order the plow is running. The new store is up and will be finished in a few days. It will be occupied by Mr. Louie Burroughs who will put in a stock of drugs and notions. Mr. Gid J. Harris and fam ly bade their many sriends good-bye Wed lesday morn ing and took their departure for Johnson City, Tenn., weere they will make their future home. Our people will miss Gid eon's smiling countenance very much. Tongs. BULLOCK DOTS. Mr." and Mrs. Henry Hester, of Adon iram, left on Saturday's train for a visit of several days to friends in Clarksville, Va. After a sojourn of nearly a year with his friend Mr. James Bullock, Col. John Wimbish left this week on a visit to his friends and relatives in Clarksville We are sorry to hear of the severe ill ness of one of our best citizens, Mr. Her bert Gregory, of Albin. Hope it is noth ing serious and he will soon be convales cent. One of our greatest huntsman, Mr. Dick Sneed, shot a fine deer last week, but during the chase, one of his finest dogs was drowned, while attempting to cross the raill dam at Lewis' Mill. We are indebted to our Editor for a sample copy of the Breeder's Guide, it is calculated to be very instructive and in teresting to the farmers as its pages are filled with valuable information for the farmer or stock raiser. The offer made by the Public Ledger is a most liberal one and every one will find it to his in terest to take advantage of it. Unlike the sailor, who has a sweet heart at every port, two of our young railroad officials have selected each a fair one at the terminus of the journey. The result of the matter is they will both be married this month, one on the 18th and the other the 25th in Keysville, Va. Like onr railroad, which they have so faithful ly served for several years, may their married life be prosperous and successful. Trump. FISHING CREEK. It has been said that every dog has his day or has had it. And it looks a little that way to me about Mr. Cleveland just now. When such men as Senator Vance speak the people ought to listen. What does Vance say ? Cleveland's position on the silver question is not a common dif ference, but a defiance of his party, almost an insult to the Democratic party. Pugh of Alabama says when his people are confronted with the question whether they shall throw Mr. Cleveland overboard or free silver, Mr. Cleveland will have to go. Bland of Missouri puts it a little stronger: says Cleveland was quiet during the fight on the force bill when we were struggling to preserve the rights of the whole people and prevent a revolution, but when the money bags of Wall street are threatened he rushes to their aid. But after all we can't tell what may happen. He may be the coming man for 1892. I saw some two weeks ago you mentioned a ticket you think the strongest the Dem ocrats can bring out Pattison, of Penn sylvania, and Vance, of North Carolina. You say if Pattison can carry Pennsylva nia for President as he did for Governor the ticket is elected on nomination. Now is there any certainly in Pennsylvania voting the Democratic ticket? How many times has she voted Democratic since the war? Is Pennsylvania as cer tain as New York for 1892 ? I think not. You took a view of the situation and say there are 410 electoral votes and Vance can carry 152 votes as solid as a block of granite, leaving Pattison to bring up Pennsylvania, Indiana and New Jersey with their 54 votes making 2 majoricy. Would it be just if Patterson can do all you claim for him, carrying only 54 votes, to have the first place on the ticket, and give- Vance who can carry 152 votes as solid as a block of granite the second place on the ticket? That is not myidea of j ustice'. The doctrine taught by Henry W. Grady and the teaching of the Farm ers' Alliance will have blotted out all sectional feeling by 1892. So it will make no difference where a man lives that is head on the great National Demo cratic Alliance ticket. If my conclusions are correct then give us Vance first, Pat tison, Hill or the double f from Kansas or any other good man and all will be well. Democrats to your 'post prepare for war in time of peace . B. i The New Senator from Kansas. W. A. Peffer, elected United States senator from Kansas, is 50 years of i age, and was born in Pennsylvania. Some what early & life he remove to Indiana.am lived successively in Illinois, Missouri and Tennes fee be fore finallj- set tling in Kansas. He has been a farmer, teacher, soldier and law yer, and was edi tor of The Kansas Farmer when chosen senator. He was conserva- SENATOR PEFFER. tiye jn politic8 in Tennessee during reconstruction times, but was a Garfield elector from Kansas in 1880. He has been identified with the Farmers' Alliance from the founding of the organization. A VISIT TO WIBTSTOX. A RiiMtlinsr Busy C'i ty-Oav is Military Seliool-Circensboro Prosperous. The editor during the past week visited Winston, the coming city of North Caro lina. It has a prosperity that is unsur passed and a future that is in the highest degree encouraging. While Oxford with us is the favorite town in North Carolina yet we are gratified to chronicle the growth, enterprise and prosperity of other towns in the State. The Piedmont section is the land of all others for superiority of climate, and it is a matter of wonder that this favored part of the world has not been densely populated with health seekers. Thou sands of persons' who repair to Florida for health and to other points would find the Piedmont section of this State incom parably superior by reason of its health giving atmosphere charged with iozone, and its matchlessly invigorating cKmate. Winston has much of which she hJs just cause to be proud. Her electric c4rs are a big success. Her thrifty and Industri ous population are observed on. every hand hard at work, and exhibit evidences of business success, but with all the re sources and advantages of which Winston can boast she has no cause to be prouder of anything than of the renowned Davis Military School. This is a seat of learn ing that has bounded to the front on the score of extraordinary merit and patron age among the literary institutions of the South. Its patrons cover a wide expanse of territory, and the good work being done by this school is marvellous and has secured for itself a patronage larger than that of any other similar literary institu tion in the United States. This speaks well for the noble princi pal, Colonel Davis, whose grasp of busi ness capacity is apparently boundless. He does his.work on a mammoth scale, and does it by a combination of intellect, tact and indomitable purpose which attest his peculiar fitness in the high role of con ducting a school that requires a master mind to manage successfully. - He selects his faculty of the best ma terial so as to insure the best of instruc tion for the cadets who are so fortunate as to enjoy the many advantages ot this famous school. The buildings are grand, imposing and a model of convenience, and the cadets are provided with nicely furnished rooms and are as comfortable as thev would be at home. GREENSBORO is another future city of whose growth and progress we would delight to dwell on if space permitted. It is matter that goes without saying that Greensboro is on a career of prosperity which she richly deserves. She contains a great many distinguished citizens. Men who have been honored by Noith Carolina who are distinguished for their great abilities. We were shown through the Knitting Mills by the courtesy of Sample Brown, Esq., a leading merchant and business man of the city who is largely interested in the enterprise, in company with Mr. A. K. Smith, of the Smithfinld Herald. This company has $50,000 worth of orders ahead and has $20,000 worth of machinery in its plant. The growth of such towns as Winston and Greensboro has been and is likely to be steady and uninterrupted, and we will hail with delight every step in their career that is onward and upward. Bridge Across Tar River. The good -people living near Frovi- dence, on the Oxford & Clarksville Rail road, are greatly inconvenienced for want of a bridge across Tar river, about that Doint. The ford is getting almost impas sable and in times of rainy weather im pede, travel and a bridge is a public ne cessity. The people in that neighbor hood know the importance of this bridge being built, and it is a matter of impera tive necessity that the bridge should be promptly built. It should have been built long ago. We hope the Commis sioners will without a dissenting voice order the bridge erected as soon ,as possi ble. itch cared in 30 minutes by Woolford's Sanitary Lotion.

Some of the Reasons Why This Road Should be Built The Oreat Benefit That it Will do Oxford We Must Have Another Outlet. The determined opposition of this paper to all schemes of taxation which takes money out of the pockets of the people and gives no return therefor, en titles our words to more than ordinary weight when the Public Ledger an nounces that it is heart and soul for the forty thousand dollar subscription to the Oxford & Coast Line Railroad. In an other column we present our readers with a copy of the charter just granted to the corporation. Never again, in a lifetime, we believe, will so important a measure to this town arise. The time has now arrived in the history of young cities that railroads are indis pensible to taeir life. When the railroad commission is fully organized freight and passenger rates will be reduced, and then almost the entire trade of towns will be over its railroads. A town with a back country will he a town with a plenty of rail roads. In the race of life shall Oxford be left? In the past four years Durham has voted one-fourth of a million of dollars for rail roads. Until those roads began opera tions she languished ; now she is reaping the1 rich harvest of money well spent. Four years ago Winston was on the down grade. She voted much money and se cured new railroads and with them came life and activity. The Ledger does not contend that a town that is not ripe for a railroad will be benefitted, but it does contend that no town can thrive and pros per without rivers or railroads. What is the situation ? Oxford has one railroad running to It and a branch road to Hen derson. It is proposed to vote $40,000 and get a road to Nashville on the great Coast Line System. This will cut the D. & N. R. R. a few miles from Oxford and the new railroad laws will force the D. & N. R. R. to connect and exchange freights with our new Oxford & Coast Line Road Thus it will be seen at a glance that we get two roads for our subscription. Un less this is done, is there any man so sim pie as not to see that Granville county will be again divided and the Dutchville section will go to Durham or we wil have a new county. But this is not all Reidsville and Greensboro are both reach ing in this direction. Both want the Coast Line. Hence the road will eo on through Oxford Westward, and we wil have about 40 miles of new road in Gran ville. The taxes on this 40 miles applied to our railroad subscription will pay about one half of it. The purpose is to run the new road either through Fishing Creek and Kittrell and thence to Louis- burg or else to run through Brassfields, Wilton, Franklinton and perhaps Louis- burg and thence onward. The line of the road will depend in a large measure upon the willingness of the active men and towns along the road to aid in its build ing. We have wise men at the helm, and we are proud to say that Oxford has put her shoulder to the wheel. Remember that every cent we vote wjll be used in Gran ville county as the call for the election requires this. As a guarantee of success we will simply name the directors: Dr. H. C. Herndon, A W, Graham, J. G. Hall, L. E. Cooper, J. C . Hundley , W. A. Davis J. C. Horner, J. E. Howell, R. T. Smith, S. II. Cannady, R. H. McGuire, W. C. Reed, J. B. Booth and B. S. Royster, of Oxford; J. B. Boatwright and W. T. Hughes, of Louisburg; Willis Wood, of Nashville; John O. Plank, of Chicago. Rich and poor will feel the good effects of this road and all of us can join hands in the good work. At a meeting of the Board of Town Commissioners held with a large number of our citizens the follow ing order was passed : That an election" be held on the 25th day of May, 1891, to decide upon the question as to whether the town of Ox shall vote to issue bonds to the amount of forty thousand dollars to subscribe to the capital stock of the Oxford & Coast Ratlroad Company, and that the money so. raised be used in buinding that por tion of the said railroad in Granville county. Fred 3T. Day, Esq. ' It is a pleasure for us always to call at tention to the successful business men of Oxford. Among this number is Fred N. Day, Esq., who is full of energx, integri ty and fair dealing, and knows no such word as fail. He has recently removed from his old stand to the Usry building just in the rear of theold Cooper store on College street. He - keeps strictly relia ble goods. It is always important to deal with a jeweler of high character and Who sell goods as they are. We heartily commend Mr. Day to the confidence of our many readers, who may need anything in the way pf jewelry and spectacles, or wish any work- done in hla line. 0 P(DSlCo MISCELLANEOUS.
