Lyon, one of the veteran: farmers of I Hitchville, spent Monday in Oxford. Messrs. Hundley llros. are rapidly completing the new residence of Mrs. T. L. Hargrove. Mr. John H. Meadows, of the Alli ance Tobacco Co. of Durham, was in Ox ford on Sunday. Mr. W. P. Lyon, of Wilton, was in town on Tuesday with a load of tobacco, and paid us a visit. The Modern Harn Com pan' has nearly completed a neat and attractive office near the factory. Owing to the poor outlook for a to bacco crop prices are bound to advance on all grades of tobacco. Mrs. J. F. White, who has been real sick with the grippe, we are pleased to learn is rapidly improving. Capt. W. O. Bobbitt, J. W. Chappell and wife and Henry Roberts, of Fishing Creek, were in town on Monday. We are glad to learn that the colored woman who was accidentally shot some days ago In the face will get well. Bishop Lyman will preach at St. Stephen's church this (Friday) evening, services commencing at 8:30 o'clock. Mr. J no. Bullock, Mt.

Harmony Is the one thing most de sired among our people in order that we all may pull together for the building up of Oxford. Tip top prices ! Meadows warehouse is a boomer on high averages. Read the prices in another column and be con vinced of the fact. We were pleased to meet in Oxford on Saturday Mr. Crawrord Biggs who came over from Chapel Hill to spend Sunday with his mother. Mr W. H. Hunt, Cashier of Bank of Oxford, will erect a handsome residence on his lot in South Oxford adjoining that of N. B. Cannady, Esq. The prospect for a tobacco crop in Granville is exceedingly poor as our farm ers are 6 weeks behind, and plants will lie exceedingly scarce Mr. "E. W. Jones, chief of the Or phans' Friend, after having a big time with the measles is at his post of duty. Glad to see you oat, brother. Look out farmers, and make it a bus ness not to sell your tobacco at the barn door. Tobacco is bound to go up and you will lose money every time. The new buildings for the far famed Horner School will surpass anything of the kind in the State. We are marching forward with a lively quickstep. We regret to learn of the continued sickness of Mr. William Daniel, of Berea. We truly hope he will be speedily re stored to his usual health and vigor. The Wizard Oil Co. Wagon has been in Oxford this week, and our people lis ten to the delightful singing of the gen tlemen accompanying it with great pleas ure. We are sorry to chronicle that Rev. R. F. Bumpass continues confined to his room with the rheumatism and conse quently no services were held in the Methodist church on Sunday The Baptists of Oxford had the pleas ure of listening to a splendid sermon on Sunday last by Rev. O. Durham, of Ral eigh. He is recognized as one of the ablest Baptist ministers in the State. Senator Allen paid us a visit on Tues day. He reports that in his opinion no tobacco will be set out in the Southern portion of the county before the first of June, owing to tj.e lateness of plants. Our merebsjit-! have all laid in good stocks, and the uialn aim, of course, is to dispose of thei-i to the best advantage.

Hunt, a New York mem ber of the board of architects of the World's fair, is a brother of William M. Hunt, the artist, and was born in Brat tleboro, Vt., Oct. 31, 1838. He studied in America first, then in the Ecole dea Beaux Arts in Paris. Before he returned to America he visited Greece, Asia Minor and the art centers of the conti nent. In isr5 lie was engaged on the Capitol at Washington. He has designed several structures of importance, among them being The Tribune building, New York; the pedestal of the Bartholdi Statue of Liberty, etc. The Ldeger never lets up on lifting the market,but is a pushing paper for home interests. Southern Tobacconist. We are pleased to see that our sprightly neighbor the Day will issue a trade edition soon. We wish it better success than we met with Jan. 3, 1890, when we issued one and lost money in trying to boom Oxford. We would now suggest to the Direc tors of the Oxford Land, Improvement and Manufacturing Co. the Importance of lieantifying Herndon Park. Make it as attractive as possible let's have a pavil ion to start with. We are glad to see that our citizens are all working in harmony for the Coast Line Road. Put Oxford down as a suc cess in the way of building railroads. The word fall don't appear in the vocab ulary of the average progressive man of Oxford. The Modern Barn Company are build lng a modern barn near their factory in South Oxford, so that everybody can readily see the great work of curing to bacco at a nominal cost. We advise every farmer when he comes to town to go and axamine it. The "merry-go-round" struck town on Friday and the average boy was in his glory as well as some of the older ones. When the music began our devil "lit out" of the window and the last time we saw him he was Iwbbing up and down on one of the wooden horses. We learn that the hail storm which prevailed Saturday over some portions of the county did some damage in the Adon iram section. Most all the cloth over the plant beds was destroyed by hail stones as large as hen eggs. Messrs. F. B. Hes ter and B. T. Winston had several glasses broken out of their residences. Our readers understand that we have nothing to do with the views of our cor respondents.

Any decent man who has anything to say about public matters can get a hear ing through this paper if he expresses himself sensibly and becomingly and if his communication is of sufficient gen eral or local interest to be worth its space and is not against the general welfare or positively and unjustly hurtful to the standing and good name of some individ ual.

Francis Huntingdon Snow, "hancellor of the University of Kansas at awrence, was born at Fitchburg, Mass. . June 29, 1840. He was educated at Williams college and Andover Theoloi ical semi nary. He has been connected! with the University of Kansas since its founda tion in 1866. Professor Snow's tireless work has built up the large Natural his tory collections of the university, but his greatest fame is due to his sicessful ex periments looking to the destruction of the chinch lu'. IS IT SOT WR-jJfUS? What do the County Counjiiiaslouerii Think About It In this county as well as In tll the other counties of the State there are persons who are not able to pay their taxes, or If able to pay them either through neglect or not having the readv cash 3n hand fall to do so. The law authorizes! the Sheriff to advertise the property of lelinquents. No one can blame the Sheriff, therefore, for adversing their property if they are behind in settling their taxesf. It Is his duty to so advertise. The County Com missioners, however, are the proper per sons to name some newspaper In the county in which to publish the names of the delinquents. The ptirpdse of pub lishing the names of the delinquents Is that the people may be in-formed that they are behind, and that ;thir property is advertised for taxes. ? The power entrusted to the Commis sioners is an important one, and is given them that the people in arrears for taxes may be informed that their iproperty, all they have, is advertised fop sale. This information is very important for the tax payers to know who ha"fe failed to pay their taxes. It is all important that the Board of County Commissioners should select a county paper that -has a large cir culation directly among the people of the county, and from our knowledge of the efficient Board of Commissioners of Gran ville county we are sure that they would not pursue this course and we have no word of complaint to make against the Board, but the Chairman of the Board, we think, we have a just right to com plain of, because the said chairman or his own motion has arrogated to his hon orable self to have the names of the de linquents published in a paper with a very small circulation in Granville count' compared with the PucTiic Ledger. Tho paper in which this list has been published is a most excellent one with a large circulation outside of the county, but does not claim, we suppose, to be a county paper, and whose list we presume hardly reaches over 150 in the town and county. How then will many persons whose names are published as delin quents ever rind it out? We protest that it i3 & gross injustice to the tax payers to thus- treat them, and the fact that they are tiias treated by the Chairman on his own responsibility adds to the ereat wronsr done them. Had the 0 j Board of Commissioners been consulted in this matter we have no idea that they would have approved of conduct so en tirely inconsistent with propriety to the best interest of the people. We may have more to say on this sub ject hereafter. His Physician Prescribes S. H. S.

Dallas Eagle says Gaston peaches kill ed. Alleghany had four inches snow Tues day. John Griffin, Union county, age 79, dropped dead. Davidson man miscounted Sunday for Saturday, nnd went to town trading. At Stanley court this week only one case went to the jury, not a conviction and the jail is empty. Goldsboro branch New Hanover Rank organized 10 years ago on $50,000 cap ital and sold out for $125,000. Lexington merchants organize a move ment to properly work and permanently improve the road leading into town. Nearly $2,000 in taxes is due on the home of the aged widow of President Polk, and it is advertised to be sold. Secretary Blaine has absolutely appalled the President by the audacity he has dis played in pressing his reciprocity scheme forward into the teeth of the McKinley bill and the high protection leaders who controlled the tariff policy in the last Congress. Bishop Atticus G. Haygood proposes as a remedy for the crime and the lynch- ng of the New Orleans Mafias: 1st Make the courts effective in dealing with criminals; 2nd Keep out of the country immigrants of the Sicilian sort. Mr. Samuel Reich, residing about four miles northeast of Winston, can lay claim to something that few men in this day and generation can boast.

Wilmington, as she always does, when ever occasions call out patrotic expres sion, and the exhibition of the qualities of culture, good breeding, and public spirit, paid the handsomest and most ap propriate tribute of all the towns in the State to the dead Governor. The shooting affair which occurred between Alexander Green and Isham Thompson Saturday, near Wilmington, resulted fatally, Green dying from the effects of a wound received. The trouble grew out of Thompson's jealousy of his wife in consequence of Green's attentions to her. E. G. Hirrelh secretary of the North Carolina Teachers' Assembly, announces the acceptance of Rev. Dr Talmage to deliver a lectur-s during- the session of the assembly at Morehead City this sum mer. His lecture will be on Friday, June 9th aud special trains will be run from all over the State. It is stated that Saturday night's fire at Bingham's Military School, which de stroyed the mess-hall and several apart ments in the barracks, was incendiary, and it is hinted that the fire-bugs are to be found amoung the students. This is the fourth fire which this institution has suffered. William Barker, who was tried before a Justice of the Peace of Mt. Airy upon the charge of killing pornwell in a reve nue raid in Surry county, and wounding Tom Brim, was committed to jail to await the action of the grand jury at the next term of Surrv Superior Court which opens on the 20th Inst. A. A. Forbes, of Pitt county Is one of the most successful tobacco farmers in North Caroiina. Upon eighteen acres last year he made a crop of the weed which he sold for $3,500. Upon seven acres of this he netted $2,100. He sold 1,800 pounds at an average of forty cents a pound. Two years ago he sold a small quantity at $3.05 per pound. Secretary Foster has diricted that all proper facilities be accorded the Gover nors of the Southern States to examine the treasury books for information as to who paid the direct tax, that the tax may now be refunded to the proper individual his heir or assigns. A letter of instruc tion on the subject was sent to the Gov ernors of Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia and a similar letter will be sent to the Governors of all States where the tax was collected from individuals.
