Points Scored in a Week's Game of Seek and Find. The growler is a poor thing to have around town. Some people never see any sense in anything that has not cents in it. Sunday night Jack Frost appear ed and killed vegetation right and left. It is said it is a waste of breath for a preacher to preach higher than he lives. The moon is now pretty, but it's too cool for love-making on the front gate. Mr. J. D. Brooks has greatly improved his residence along with his stables. Our bicycle brigade, numbering 22 was out on the streets Wednesday evening in all their glory. Remorse ! Why was such a word ever invented ? It means the sacrifice of our best feelings. The New York Journal's Sunday edition was indeed a mammoth newspaper, composed of 52 pages. Owing to the extreme low price of tobacco but little is now being offered on the market by the farmers. Major B. S. Royster inspected the Jjouisburg Military Company Friday, and the Governor's Guards Monday. The semi-annual meeting of Albemarle Presbytery is in session at Geneva church, Granville county, this week. Our streets looked deserted Fri day after the large crowd that filled them Thursday to take in Walter Main's big circus. The four Billies, J. M. Sikes, J. A. Norwood and David Spencer were in close consultation in the court house Friday. Mr. J. P, Mize has placed on our table some nice ripe short stem May cherries. They are the second crop and are full grown. Lay aside vour prejudice and vote for no decoy duck or any can didate who will vote for or throw his influence for a goldbug, trusts or combines, the great enemies of the people. The destiny of the people is at hand and it is the duty of eyery white man to come out and vote against the gold standard, trusts and combines that are bleeding the people on eveiy hand. The Hamme-Cheatham gold mine is still developing. J. T. Cheatham has just sold an option for $20,000 which makes about $S0,000 already sold, with others under consideration amounting to $20,000 or more. We urge our farmer friends not to be hoodwinked into aiding in the election of goldbugs by men who claim to be in favor of free silver while at the same time are working in the interest of Mark Hanna. Invitations are out announcing the marriage of Hettie Eulona, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. A. F. Os born, of Lawrenceyille, Va.. to Mr Charles H. Cheatham, of near Ox ford, Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 28, at 12:30. Politics free silver, sound mon ey, goldbug, popocrat, Hannacrat, fusion, co-operation, confusion, no fusion, Republicanism, Hannaism. boodleism, traitorism and negroism is what we have heard discussed the past week. Don't think that because yon wear a rabbit's foot that you are bound to have good luck unless the rabbit foot in question is one of the left hind leg of the graveyard ani mal and was secured by a cross eyed colored gentleman. White men of Granville assert your manhood and rally to th3 polls on the 3rd day of November and vote and keep the State and county from falling into the clutches of Russell and his gang, who are bent on plundering the people. Messrs. A. J. Feild and J. C. Biggs spoke to quite a crowd of voters at Wilkins Saturday. There was quite a deep interest manifested in the discussions, showing that the people are determined to vote for no man who is not in favor of free silver. Mr. J. R. Young, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Hunt and Mr. John D. Coop er, of Henderson, along with many relatives in Granville, attended the funeral of our late honored and greatly beloved townsman, N. B. Cannady, which occurred on Friday afternoon. It is given out that Dr. A. J. Dalby said on the stump at one of his appointments in Orange that he was runninfg for Congress in the in terest of Tom Settle, and his object was to take all the votes he could away from Kitchm, who he roundly abused. What do the good men of the Populist party think of this? We want our Populist friends in Granville to ask Capt. A. S. Peace, candidate for Treasurer, if he is such a strong free silver man why he was closeted one day last week and one day this week with Mr. Wray, the chairman of the Republican Congres sional committee of the Fifth dis trict? Is he working for the election of gold bug Settle? DEMOCRAT POPULISTS. Action of Democratic County Execu tive Committee. The Democratic County Executive Committee met Tuesday and filled out the balance of the co-operation ticket. They endorsed Mr. John Kmg for the Legislature, Mr. W. H. Lyon for Commisicner and Dr. Mer ritt for State Senate. They further instructed the township committees to use every means to bring about fusion on the magistrates and con stables. The following is the ticket as it now stands: For Sheriff J. F. Cole. Pop. For Treasurer J. A. Waller, Pop. For Register of Deeds, C. F. Crews, Dem. For Legislatare Alex. J. Feild, Dem.; John King, Pop. For Commissioners G. B. Roys ter, Dem.; W. H. Lyon, Pop.; E. C. Harris, Dem. For Coroner J. A. Renn, Dem. For Surveyor For State Senate Wm. Merritt, Pop. The committee then passed a reso lution pledging themselves to sup port and work for the election of the above ticket. We commend the action of the committee. They have put out a good ticket, and it will meet with a hearty support. We have been sat isfied all along that the Democratic and People's parties have been hear tily in favor of co-operation, and the only thing that has been in the wajr is a majority of the Populist Execu tive Committee. Had we thought that the Executive Committee of the People's party were voicing the wish of the party, we would have dropped the matter afte: the offer was de clined. But we know that the Peo ple's party of this county does not wish to send negro gold bugs to the Legislature, and the Democrats have prepared this ticket so that the peo ple may see their honesty of purpose and have an opportunity of voting their sentiments. This is too seiious a matter to be taking chances on. If we stay apart the gold bug Republicans will repre sent this county in the next Legisla ture, and if they do the blame will lie at the door of the People's party, and for it they will have no excuse. The Democrats have done abso lutely everything in their power to meet the Populists half way and work together with them, and now after every proposition has been de clined, we go before the people with this co-operation ticket asking their hearty support. When a great issue upon which hangs the prosperity and happiness of this country is trembling in the balances, it is no time to be trying to arouse party feeling and party strife. No true Populist will do it; no true Democrat will do it; no true patriot will do it. If any one is doing it, mark him well; ex amine his past, watch him and see if he has not selfish reasons for doing so. He is no good citizen who now tries to breathe life into the dead is sues of the past and divide the silver forces. He is a dangerous leader, an unsafe adviser. He is a danger ous man. The Democratic party is in earnest about free silver, and they are will ing to lay aside all their party pas sions and prejudices and join their neighbors in securing it. They have kicked out Cleveland, Carlisle and their ganer and with clean hands they ask the aid and co-operation of all good citizens in bringing about pros perity. The people of Granville are not re sponsible for the whole State, but they and they alone are responsible for the action of Granville. If negro gold bug Republicans go the Legis lature from Granville, the people of Granville must bear the odium. The Democrats have done and will do all they can to prevent such a calamity. Will the Populists do Likewise? We hope so; we believe so. Death of Hiss Laura Philpott. This good woman has been gath ered to the Great Beyond, having breathed heT last on Saturday at her home near Oxford, after an illness of three or four weeks. She was num bered among the pure christian la dies of our community, being among the zealous members of the Presby terian church. She leaves behind two maiden sis ters to mourn her loss, to whom the warmest sympathies of our people go out in the hour of their sad be reavement. The funeral was conducted from the Presbyterian church Sunday af ternoon at 4 o'clock by Rev. Mr. Wharton, pastor of Geneya church, in the presence of a large congrega tion. The interment took place in Elmwood cemetery. When your stomach begins to trouble you, it needs help. The help it neods, is to digest your food, and, until it gets it, you won't Lave any peace. Stomach trou ble is very distressing, very obstinate, very dangerous. Many of the most dan gerous diseases begin with simple indi gestion. The reason is that indigestion (not-digestion, not-nourishment) weakens the system and allows disease germs to attack it. Th antidote is Shaker Diges tive Cordial, strengthening, nourishing, curative. It cures indigestion and renews strength and health. It does this by strengthening the stomach, by helping to digest your food It nourishes you. Shaker Digestive Cordial is made of pure herbs, plants and wine, is perfectly harm less and will certainly cure all genuine stomach trou le Sold by druggists, price 1 10 cents to $1.00 per bottle. DEATH OF flR. N. B. CANNADY. Another of Oxford's Prominent Citi zens Passes Away. It becomes our sad and painful duty to chronicle the death of Mr. N. B. Cannady, who breathed his last on Thursday at about 1 o'clock. Mr. Cannady was born at Wilton, in Granville county, where he lived until he reached manhood's estate. He was educated at. Wake Forest College standing well in all his class es and being popular and esteemed by both faculty and students. After wards he studied law and was ad mitted to the Oxford bar in 18 , where by his legal learning and skill and by his unswerving honesty and devotion to duty he soon reached a high rank in his chosen profession. As a man Mr. Cannady was poss sessed of as noble traits of character as it was ever our fortune to witness. He was most esteemed and respected by those who knew him best. With his character no distance lent en chantment, but intimacy the close view disclosed those qualities which distance hid. He was plain and di rect, without ostentation, without af fectation in everything that he did and said, following the instincts of a just and a generous nature, respect ed and esteemed by all of his ac quaintances and loved by those who knew him best. He was a man of a kind and sympathetic nature ever willing to lend a helping hand to the needy or distressed; ever ready to uphold the right and condemn the wrong; a man of whom it can be truly said that he had the milk of human kindness in his heart. Upon his tomb may be inscribed that price less inheritance far dearer to hispos terity and friends than wealth or sta tion, the record of an honest an up right man: Princes and Nobles are but the touch of " of Kings; An honest man is the noblest work of God. The funeral services were perform ed at the house by the Rev. Mr. Hardaway and then the remains of the deceased were born to their last resting place in Elmwood cemetery by the Masons, of which organiza tion Mr. Cannady was a member, where the beautiful and touching Masonic service was performed. The deceased leaves a wife and two children to mourn his loss to whom in this their houof bereave ment we extend our deep and heart felt sympathy. Victor S. Bryant's Speech. On Saturday last Mr. Victor S. Bryant, of Durham, filled the ap pointment of Mr. Simmons, who was unavoidably absent. Mr. Bryant made a telling speech and was heartily applauded. He makes a good speech, and reaches the heads and hearts of his hearers. He makes the situation so plain that all who hear must understand, and all who are patriotic must stand to gether for free silver and good gov ernment. His appeal for Mr. W. W. Kitchin was especially good and fell upon sympathetic ears. He is fighting a noble fight in a noble cause and is arousing our peo ple of all parties to the danger of the hour and the necessity of united ac tion. The people sat and listened with an earnestness that was marked, and by the expression of their faces they showed that the hour for honest con scientions, patriotic action had come. Challenge and Trial Days. The time for registration for the approaching election is past, and some voters are unable to vote be cause of their neglect to register. Next Saturday, between the hours of 9 a. m., and 4 p. m., will be chal lenge day. Between these hours any person not entitled to vote may be challenged. On the Saturday fol lowing will be trial day. Upon this day between 9 a. m., and 4 p. m., in all precincts, except those in incor porated towns and cities, all chal lenges will be heard and determined upon. The law says that in incorpor ated towns and cities the hearings may be had up th 9 p. m. It should be the duty of every man to see that persons wrongfully re gistered shall not vote. Challenge every man who you know is not en titled to vote and has been convicted of crime. Still Destroyed. Revenue officers Sheiburn and Perry, with Deputy Marshal D. A. Moore, took the trail of an illicit dis tillery in Sassafras Fork township, near the Virgina line Friday. After locating the still they made a grand charge and scooped it in while in full blast. They found a young man and two women at the still who surrend ered promptly. The still was cut up and a large quantity of beer went running down the branch. IH "OIT WANT A GOOD HOME ?

The Laying of the Corner Stone of the Bishop "Atkinson Monument." On Saturday last the 10th inst., in the neighboring parish of St. James, about half way between Kittrell and Oxford, at Fairport, in the presence of a large assembly of the citizens of Vance, Granville, Franklin and other counties, assisted by the Bishop of the Diocese and the Revs. Messrs. Marshall, of Raleigh, and Horner, of Oxford, the Rector of the parish, Rev. James Battle Avirett, laid the Corner Stone of the "Bishop Atkin son Memerial Church. The address of welcome was made by J. Beverly Hunter, Esq. After morning prayer, the Rev. M. M. Marshall D. D., preached a remark ably fine sermon. After an old 'fash, oned North Carolina dinner under the trees, at which the sweetest hos pitality prevailed, and a rich profu sion of nice things was enjoyed, the Rev. Junius M. Horner of Oxford, offered the Evening Prayer, and then Dr. Isaac Carr, of Durham, delivered a very fine address, after which the beautiful corner stone was laid. Bishop Cheshire was obliged to leave between the services to take Dr. Marshall's place in Raleigh on Suns day, enabling Dr. Marshall to spend the day in the parish of which he was the rector more than 30 years ago. And thus the good work goes bravely on. "Little by little" Goi's people are possessing the land. Hope in Frank'in Times. A Shameful Act. We learn that a night or so ago a colored man from Chatham county, was in the city, and had on a free silver hat. Some of the darkies here, so it is said, asked him what he was doing with that hat on, and that they could not allow anything like that here. He told them that they had nothing to do with what he wore. Later they met him and jerked his hat from his head and tore it to pieces, and neatly scared the poor darkey to death. Such conduct as this is disgrace ful. What would be thought of a crowd of silver men that would treat a person in this way because he saw fit to wear a gold bug hat? In this country it is boasted very often that this is a free country, and a person can think as he sees fit, without fear of molestation, but in some instances this will not bold good. Durham Sun. Walter L. Main's Show. Walter L. Main's big show was with us last Thursday and as such things usually do attracted a large crowd. While this tented amusement is not so large as Barnum's or Sells Bros.' it is a big one, and not only that a good one. Each and every act was good better, really, than is usually seen. The inimitable John Lowlow was with the circus as ad vertised and of course met with hearty rounds of applause when he made his appearance in the ring as he is a general Southern favorite. The parade, the menagerie", Wal lace, the riding lion in fact every thing was good, and Walter L. Main's big show will meet with a hearty re ception should it come this way in future. Shot. This (Wednesday) morning John Bass, colored, who lives in the Rag land store neighborhood, came to town to have some buck shot extract ed from one of his legs and his ab domen, the effects of a gun shot re ceived at the hands of John Bullock, also colored. The facts as we learn them are that Bass caught Bullock stealing wood belonging to W. L. & R. B. Rag land and reported it to these gentlemen. And so this morn ing to avenere bis anger while Bass was in the field plowing Bullock shot him, the load taking effect as above stated. While the wounds are not necessarily fatal they are very pain ful. Robbery. Tuesday morning between one o'clock and day some unknown thief or thieves entered the store of Mr. C. A. Carroll, whose place of busi ness is near Hundley Bros, planing mills, by means of an axe and crow bar, and took therefrom a considera ble amount or clothing, shoes, jew elry, &c. Two tramps, a white man and a negro, who were seen about the place Monday afternoon, are sus pected of having committed the theft and we shall soon expect to hear of someone being brought to justice as our efficient Chief of Police, J. A. Renn, has the matter in hand. Rev. R. H. Leak, the great col ored political preacher of Raleigh, orated at the Court Mouse luesaay nierht to a large crowd of negroes, .... - 1 -ml a and the Billies sat spell oouna, out eras would ooze out of Bilhe Roy- ster's mouth anyhow, ut course Leak abused the white people, mak ing them out to be "roaring lions" seeking to exterminate the blacks.

The farmers of this section aro quite busy gathering corn and pre paring for another crop year. Nearly all the white men around Surl are for Kitchin. Every Popu list we know with the exception of one will vote for Kitchin, and ho says Settle will be re-elected and Pritchard returned to the U. S. Sen ate, so he's a Republican instead of a Populist. Surl church is coming. It takes in members nearly every meeting. While we don't agree with the "Hard sides" in doctrine, yet we admire their faithfulness and promptness in attending their meetings and being faithful in their work. We think if other denominations would be as prompt as the Primitives their churches would prosper faster.
