Davis & Greg ory not to work against or say anything that would tend in the least to damage Oxford's tobacco market under any circumstances as they still loved their old home. It is now thought Oxford will have a sanitarium, run by our gifted and talent ed Dr. J. M. Hays and Dr. R. H. White head, of Battleboro. This would make a strong team, and Oxford and the sur rounding country would be fortunate in having so eminent a physician as Dr. Whitehead in their midst. It is said now that the improvements to the court house will actually com mence immediately after the adjourn ment of July term of Granville Superior Court. For the credit of the county as well as for the convenience and looks of the building we trust the cut rate knife will not be applied as the chief cutter Is a member of the building committee, and trust he will be choked off for one time since he has set himself up as King of Granville.

"Suffer little children to come unto me." Major A.. S. Lanier, returned to Ox ford on Tuesday. He Informs us that he visited a large number of town in the State, and saw none of them displaying any more activity and progress than Ox ford. We are bound to come out all right if we all will pull together with a determination to win. We want to see all the little factions that are now in existence in Oxford do away with their prejudices and all unite for the purpose of building up our town. Rule or ruin policy will retard the growth and prosperity of any community. Let us have harmony by all means, and come together as a band of urothers for the up building of Oxford and her tobacco mar ket. Virginia, the 8 year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Willie Neal, a few evenings ago caught a lightning bug and took a seat on the piazza and commenced blow ing in her hands with all her might. One of her older sisters approached her and said, "Virginia what in the world are you blowing so about?" "Why I am trying to blow the light out but it keeps on burning." Mr. F. L. Merritt, the gentlemanly attache of the State Chronicle, wrote up Oxford in good style in Saturday's issue, which was Illustrated. He left out three of the important factors which are doing all they can to carry forward what he so happily prophesied for our town that of its newspapers. We are not jealous, as he no doubt thinks the Chronicle is the greatest paper in the State. The lot of Fertilizer manufactured by Durham Fertilizer Co, seized by In spector Terrell in Oxford some three weeks ago upon analysis by State Chemist was $3,74 per ton short, as shown by the Agricultural Bulletin for June. These goods have bsen seized by Sheriff Crews under instructions from Commissioner Robinson and thePresident of the Durham Fertilizer Co. summoned to appear be fore and answer to at the next term of Granville Superior Court. They can blow all they want to about paying high prices on other markets but Cooper in Henderson always goes a few ! cents higher. SI AROUND GRANVILLE. THE FARMERS' ALLIANCE AND INTEREST PROTECTED, ITS What is doing- on In Different Sec tions as Gathered by the Public Ledger Reporters Views of Corres pondents. Ac. STEM SIFTINGS. Miss Hettie Minor is visiting Mrs. J. B. Mayes. Mr. J. II. Webb, and C. Wheeler visited Oxford Wednesday. Misses Jennie, Katie and May Sharpe have gone to South Carolina and will spend some time in that State visiting friends. Dr. II. A. Nash while examining a pa tient Sunday morning his horse became frightened and run away demolishing bis buggy. The singing class here is making rapid rapid progress and our people are regaled with some splendid vocal music. A large number of the boys visited Ox ford Tuesday night to ride the goat and be inducted into some of the mysteries of Odd Fellowship in order that they may become better men. They say that Sir William was a tough customers as he had no doubt been feasting on tin cans. Billy A. SATTERWHITE SAYINGS. Since you allow space in your very in structive paper to county correspondents, we feel assured that you will not deny us this privilege. Although we may be a little obscure to the world at large as we have no railroad as yet through our sec tion, still we feel ourselves as prominent as any of the little places. Our location Is high, and consequently very healthy. Miss Callie Puckett has returned from O. F. Seminary to the joy of her many friends. We think Professor Hobgood worthy and in every respect capable of conduct ing Richmond Female College or any oiij.o-. The battle is still in progress between the grass and farmer, and we are afraid will continue some time, but we hope the farmer will come out victorious. We have two thrifty merchants, who are doing excellent business, and receiving goods almost daily. True we have no Main and Broadway streets, we are con tent with other names unless we could have them in the proper sense. We are indeed sorry to lose our splen did neighbor, Mr. B. P. Thorp, who has accepted a position with Messrs Davis & Gregory, of Richmond. However, we hope lie will not forget his old North Carolina friends. What will become of the poor hounds ? We will not have the pleasure of listening to their melodious voices this fall, and there will be much rejoicing among the fox. Ajax. We would be glad to have Ajax cor respond regular and let the people know what is going on in your section. En. DABNEY DOINGS. Miss Ida Clark, who has been sick for some time, is improving. This section was well represented at the Grand Alliance Rally in Oxford last week. Wednesday evening of last week we had a thorough wetting rain since wh'ch the crop have improved very rapid. Mr. Pryce Jones and wife visited Mr E. G. Butler's family here last week. They returned to Henderson Monday. Our people came together here on the fourth and had a good time talking over matters in general and drinking lemon ade. Qutte a number of our Farmers went seining at Cheatham's pond last Wednes day and had fish fry and a high old time generally. Crops are not looking as well as our farmers would like to see them, but have not lost hope yet, as good rains may be the means of bringing them out. Dr. J.E. Wyche and Miss Nora King, of Oxford, spent the Sabbath in our vil lage. Miss Nora was visiting her old friends, while the Doctor visited his kins man Dr. C. D. Wyche. The account of Big Alliance Rail' in Oxford given In the Pur.Lir Ledger beat anything we have yet read In the State of similar meeting. Farmers support liber ally the best county paper in the State. Mr. Charles Ball, who has been study ing for the minlntry at Wake Forest preached at Popular Creek on Sunday, 5th Instant. Mr. Ball is a new beginner, and those who heard him say he did well. May he succeed and prove a worthy advo cate of God's Holy cause. Mr. Thomas Patterson, an old citizen of this section, died at Mr. James Clark's near Dexter on Saturday, 4th Instant, and was buried in the old family burying ground near here next day. He was 7ft years old, and had been a member of the Baptist church for many years. We have not given you any Dabney items for some time, not because we have mm lost interest in the Public Ledger, for we highly appreciate it as it gives the news of the county as well as town, but our section has afforded nothing interest ing except the regular routine of farm life. Fifteen dollars was raised here for mis sionary work on Children's Day. Services were held at the Methodist P. church last Sunday-. The church was sparingly but neatly decorated with wreaths and mottos in evergreen, and the audience was so large that all could not find room inside. The best of order prevailed and all spoke in the highest terms of praise of the man ner In which the children acquitted them selves. Miss Ida Clark presided at the Organ and with a large choir of splendid singers furnished the best of music. Tongs. BULLOCK BREEZES. Mr. Ike Davis was out on a visit to his mother on Sunday. Miss Bessie Wilson is visiting her sister Mrs. William Morton, of Oak Hill. Misses Janie and Alice Carrington spent Saturday and Sunday with friends near Oak Hill. , Miss Clemmie Wilson is staying with her sister Mrs. James N. Daniel, who has been sick for a week. Mr. Cabell Wood, of Clarksville, spent last week with a party of young people at the residence of Mr. Thos. Carrington- ... . J gratified to hear of the success of th; t i paper, which it &o richly deserves. May it continues to thrive. Crops of all kinds are beginning to look well since the recent gentle rains and although the prospect has been so gloomy all the Spring, still the farmers hope for an abundant harvest. Mr. Watkins Elam, of Buffalo Station, spent several days this week with friends In the neighborhood, but was suddenly called home with the startling news that two of his hands has engaged in a fight in which one negro was fatally shot. A negro named J aae i anner put tnree ball into the breast of Luster who possibly live. cannot It Is Indeed heart rending to hear of the many cases of severe illness and death which is calculated to bring sadness and sorrow to so many hearts. Mr. George Pittard, Sr., continues to be in a critical condition and we regret to hear his friends have dlspaired of his life. The old people of the country are fast passing away and we trust the young people may come forward and fill their places in the church and In society as honorably and usefully as they have done. Trump. Miss Hettie Itoyster is visiting rela tives at Stovall this week. Messrs. Ii J. Hart and Willie Lump- kins, both of Dexter, were in our town aexampeof m BuUock and wlu add a few days since. fine and commodiou8 structure to the Miss Lute B. Royster has just returned a same street- He believes in having plen home from a visit to Mrs. W. II. Hester,! tv nf ronm fnr the children as well as for of Adoniram. Crops are much more promising sincej the much needed rain which fell here onf Wednesday, the 8th. We have a thriving little Baptist Sun day-school with Mr. J. G. Pittard as Su perintendent who is greatly beloved by; all that know him. Mr. Joe Breedlove accompanied by th accomplished belle Miss Ada Breedlove; both of Dexter, spent Sunday with relai tives near this place. A bloody row came very near being enj gaged in near here a few days since be tween Robert Arnold and Willis DanieP both colored. Probabilities are that se rious injuries might have been received by one or the other as lioth men are ver dangerous but the wife of each ran to th assistance of her husband and after som- persuasion succeeded in quieting then, The cause is unknown. J Our village has the advantage of som of our sister towns, one of which is w have mail twice a day by the train, coe sequently Uncle Herndon does not incoic venience his customers by having to gv for the mall, but is always on hand s. when they call they get their work donA immediately and in first class style. H is a man of much enterprise and ha much to crown his faithful efforts. Hg runs a blacksmith shop, a grocery stor and is also proprietor of, the well know . "Possum Hotel." C. V. T. We are Still in the Riuf?. We are still adding names of the faiif ers of Granville to the subscription llst ' the Pitrltc Ledger. Wre tell the war housemen and merchants of Oxford th Public Ledger Is read by more farineT; in Granville than any other paper ev 1 before published in the county, and hen : give them a pointer that if they want t) ' reach the farmers of Granville why thj Puet.ic LtKiEit is the medium. Wjl want you to remember this fact when ycit cry that trade Is dull. The farmers eft 1 the county know whe patronize ther county paper. J JBdG mm NORTH CAROLINA. IHAT HAS TAKEN PLACE HER BORDERS. WITHIN A General Epitome of Recent Oeenr rences Around and Abont ITs, From i. the Mountains to the .Sea. as Culled I from our State Papers. The Dukes of Durham have supplied a .oag felt want by instituting a night Ichool for the benefit of the operatives of tieir factory. J. Wesley Fuller, a young white man bout 35 years old, was run over and jilled by the incoming freight train on ihn Roanoke & Southern railroad late Friday night at Winston. The Watauga Democrat says there is a ;old mine on Elk that shows a four-foot fe'ein of solid ore which yields gold and llver to the value of $206 per ton. John t. Hughes and the Knoxvllle Mining Company are "lawing" about it. The members of the railroad commis lion will leave Raleigh the first of next jyeek for Western North Carolina, where fuey will make a tour of inspection of he Western North Carolina railroad and find other roads of that section of the Htate. J It is now understood that the acts of the late General Assembly will not be out lintil about 15th Inst. The delay has een caused principally from a failure on .he part of the contractor to furnish paper is agreed upon. The volume will make ji,600 pages of small type. OXFORD'S BUILDING BOOM, ?f he Array of New Building Now Go. g iiiK up in Town. 5 Our town is going forward in a quiet Substantial way, and new building are be jng erected on every side. Oxford is not liead nor is she asleep by any means as jyou can hear the ring of the saw, ham pier and trowel from morning until night In the hands of skilled mechanics. We l-rlve below a list of new buildings now in ;ourse of erection, which are a better j "lass than heretofore constructed : Granite Front Bank, 3-stories, of J. C. S Cooper & Sons. The splendid Presbyterian Church, fwhich will be completed in a few months. Immense 4-story building of the Hor ner Military School. I Two-story store by R. S. Usry, who has 3Ut recently finished two others. Odd Fellows Temple, 3-storles, with stores underneath. Large Smoking Tobacco Factory of the l:Snow Modern Barn Company. k Mr. Henry Hunt is building a hand Isome 8-room two story residence in South r Oxford of modern design. Mr. John Bullock, is adorning Broad f street with another handsome dwelling, i,.V.i.li will ha nnimifl In nrcll i TActll ro Mitchell is following the $ the entertainment of his friends. The attractive residence of Mrs. 1 . L. Hargroye will soon be completed, and ; will be an ornament to High street, Mr. A P. Fleming is building a neat cottage on Broad street. Mr. D. N. Hunt, cottage on Raleigh street. Hundley Bros are doubling the capaci ty of their already large brick yard. Mr. W. C. Reed is remodeling and im proving his residet ce just outside the corporate limits. Quite a number of smaller building are going up in different portions of town be sides the improvements to the Banner Warehouse, and one of the stores of Dr. H. C. Herndon, which is being fitted up in handsome style to be occupied by the Bank of Oxford. The Court House will be remodeled and made larger after an improved design with vaults for the safe keeping of the records, which when completed we trust will be an ornament to Oxford and a credit to Granville county. One things Oxford likes more than everything else is a first-class hotel. This has become a regular "old hickory nut" but we must spring it all the same on the town for fear that some of our capitalists have forgotten that a hotel is the one thing needful to advance the prosperity of Oxford. You can hear strangers re mark: "Oxford is a beautiful town, but her greatest drawback is hotel facilities." Why not form a stock company and buy Dr. Herndon 's residence and erect a large, commodious hotel, and make Oxford a summer and winter resort for the people of the North? The attrative grounds would so far to make it one of the most beautiful places to be fonnd in the South Ringing Noises In the ears, sometimes a roaring, buzzing sound, are caused by catarrh, that exceed ingly disagreeable and very common disease. Loss of smell or hearing also result from catarrh. Hood's Sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier, is a peculiarly successful rem edy for this disease, which it cures by purify ing the blood. If you suffer from catarrh, try Hood's Sarsaparilla, the peculiar medicine. E?oDd MISCELLANEOUS. Absolutely Pure. A cream ol tartar baking powder, nighest of all in leavening Btrength. Latest U. S.
