Our tobacco men were quite busy
Monday striking tobacco, and a large
force of hands were hard at work in
the different prizehouses.
Mr. R. J. Daniel, now of Rox-
boio as he is still at the govern
ment pie counter, was in Oxford on
Tuesday. He is not under the band
of being 'too strong a Democrat" to
hold office.
A severe wind storm from the
southwest, accompanied by rain,

Henderson at f o'clock Monday af

damaging other property.
Col. W. J. Hicks and daughter,

Mr. John Mayes, our polite Reg

The question now arises who cap

Mr W. T. Lyon, who made a fine
record in a few months as a most
competent assistant in the Superior
Court Clerk's office, has been suc
ceeded by ex-postmaster J. S. Hunt.
He will prove a valuable assistant
as he possessess a fine business train

ans left Oxford Monday evening for
the reunion at Charleston, and we
hope these graid old heroes of the
lost cause will enjoy their trip to
the city by sea where the first gun
was fired in defence of our South
land. Although the brand of "too
strong a Democrat" has been placed
upon the editor by some of our peo
ple he is still for the upbuilding of
Oxford and for a white man's gov
ernment in Granville county and
North Carolina. ' You may continue
to criticise us if you will we are true
to our principle still.
The Opera House is so poorly
lighted that it is almost impossible
to read a program at an entertain
ment. It is certainly the duty of the
town authorities to provide ample
lights for the Opera House, unless
they have stipulated that the lessees
shall do so. The fact of it not being
properly lighted and heated is a
drawback to entertainments.
Rev. J. T. Gibbs, of Cary, and
Presding Elder of this district, oc
cupied the pulpit of the Methodist
church on Sunday. In the morning
his discourse was on missions, and
discussed that important question
in a very able manner. After the
sermon he administered the sacra
ment of the Lord's Supper. His
sermon at night was a plea for sin
ners to become followers of the meek
and lowly Jesus, who died that they
might become joint heirs with Him
around the Great White Throne.
While in Oxford Dr. Gibbs was the
guest of Dr. and Mrs. E. T. White.

Mr. Charley Turner, the excel

Our talented and greatly respect
ed townman Dr. E, T. White, will de
liver the Alumni Address at Trinity

something good will eminate from
him, as he is a fluent and graceful
speaker.
Wake Forest College has out
this year a very handsome invitation
to the commencement exercises,
which occur May 22-25. The editor
is under obligations for an invitation
to attend the interesting exercises.
Hon. W. W. Kitchen will deliver the

The commencement exercises of
Louisburg Female College will take

There was a memoral service in
St. James' church, Kittrell, on Sun
day last, of the late Baldy A. Cape
heart, who was a vestryman of that
church for over 30 years. The large
number of persons from the counties
of Granyille, Vance and Franklin,
indicated tbe esteem in which this
Christian gentleman was held by
them. Franklin Times.
The days of slavery in the South
was nothing to compare with the days
of slavery now under Mark Hanna
and Billey McKinley. Then the
negroes belonged to the white people
and in most cases well cared for,
now the white people belong to the
trusts and combines with a few over
seers designated for each territory
saying just bow much they shall re
ceive for their labor. This is a day
of tyranny and oppression, and it
only remains to be seen how long
the people will stand to be in bond
age. The Raleigh Christian Advocate
of tnis week contains the following
reference to itself in which there is
a world of truth, too: "We know
all about the difference between
'filling' a paper and 'editing' a paper.
Any one, almost, can 'fill' a paper
in two hours. Only he who is will
ing to give days and nights of in
telligent, faithful toil can 'edit' a
paper. If any one has an idea that
the work of an editor is a sinecure
we would say that, as far as the pos
session of facts is concerned, the
absence of such an idea is better
than its presence."
Why is it our monied men cannot
open their hearts and help build up
Oxford? Even the small town of
Roxboro can take steps for manufac
turing enterprises and water works,
while Oxford, that boast of a fine to
bacco market and deservedly so, lies
dormant thus seeminglv being satis
fied with a paying banking institution
and a up-to-date tobacco market.
The question arises will it be so
next season undor the concentration
of the tobacco trust with prices for
all grades of tobacco fixed before the
crop is put on the market with vir
tually nobody to bid against them?
The new Board of Town commis
sioners are in charge now, and three
fourths of the people who walk be
seech them to regard their interest
some, and repair the sidewalks so
they will not haye to wade through
mud when it rains to go to and from
their homes. It will not cost but a
small amount compared with that ex
pended for one-fourth who ride, and
it is to be hoped that the new Board
will at least fill up the mud holes on
the different sidewalks of the town
that are in great evidence when it
rains much, as the poorer classes
seek recognition at the hands of the
new Town Fathers.
Town Taxes.
The time for the settlement of
of town taxes expired on May 1st,

TOWN COnniSSIONERS.
Ring Out The Old, Ring in The New
Large amount Paid Out.
The old Board of Town Commis
sioners held their last meeting on
Monday night with all the members
present except S. W. Cooper.
Quite a number of citizens were
present to witness the inducting into
office of the new administration.
Mayor Minor called the Board to
order and the large account mill was
set to whirling at a rapid rate, and
ground out of the treasury the fol
lowing large amount, which shows
to the taxpayers what it cost to run
the town for one month including
vaccination:
Edwards & Winston, supplies, $G3,
78; C. H. Landis, supplies, $15,77;
F. W. Hancock, vaccine point, 75
cents; J. P. Stedman, vaccine points,
$4,75; Parker & Hunt, Lumber, $4,
13; Parham & Dorsey, Lumber, $12,
00; H. G. Duke, shop account, $G,45;
W. T. Clement, Registrar, $2,55; Dr.
S. H. Cannady, vaccination, $20,00;
Dr. J. B. Williams, vaccination $G3,
23; Dr. B. K. Hays, vaccination, $G,
G0; Dr. G. A. Coggeshall, vaccina
tion, $12,30; all the accounts for
vaccination are not all in yet. C. S.
Easton, paid Edwards & Broughton
for Printing Brief in case of Union
Bank of Richmond, ys. town of Ox
ford, $27,00; J. R. Day, salary, $35;
E. T. Crews, clerk salary, $8 4G; S.
W. Minor, salary, $10; Sam Wheeler,
$45; Town pay roll, hands, etc. ,$193;
W. H. Blalock, H. L. Skinner and
Pierce Holman, pollholders, $1 50
each. The Public Ledger account
for $4, along with two other small
accounts were not reached. The to
tal amount of accounts broke the
record, being $537,71.
At the end of the long list of ac
counts which almost took the tax
payeis breath away the board ad
journed sine die, and gracefully re
tired. Squire S. V. Ellis was present and
administered the oath of office to
Mayor S. W. Minor and in turn he
qualified the new board composed of
Messrs. Z. W. Lyon, J. S. Brown, J.
E. Howell, W. H. Hunt, C. H.
Landis, J. P. Stedman and W. J.
Stem. When the organization was
completed to the surprise of many
present who were attracted there on
account of the election of officers the
Board adjourned. But they met in
caucus afterwards, and rumor has it
selected Mr. W. H, Blalock as clerk,
and decided to continue Mr. C. S.
Easton as Tax Collector and Treas
urer, and also as Policemen, the pre
sent incumbents, Messrs. J. R. Day
and Sam Wheeler.
In many respects this is right as
the last two gentlemen entered upon
their duties one year ago without
any experience as policemen, and
have performed their duties to the
best of their abilities and we take it
for the current year will make more
efficient officers. .
Mr, E. T. Crews, the retiring clerk,
has made a most competent official.
As most of the board are light weight
naturally concluded tit to best bring
up the average and elected Mr.
Blalock, who has the qualifications
to make a good clerk.

Death of Mr. J. O. Ellington.
After an illness of three weeks Mr.
J. O. Ellington, oniy son of Mrs. Ann
Ellington, died on Sunday morning
at his home in Oxford. The atten
tion of skilled physicians and good
nursing proved of no avail and he
quietly fell asleep to await the res
urrection morn.
He was nearing his 33rd birthday.
He pofsessed a warm heart, being
ever ready to do an act of kindness
for a friend, or to help out those who
needed assistance. It can be truly
said he was his worst enemy. May
he rest in peace.
For many years he was employed
in the Public Ledger office, and
was numbered among the best all-
round printers in the State. He
served his time in the old Torchlight
office and continued to work at his
trade until about a year ago. He
was for years a member of the Gran
ville Grays, and at one time First
Lieutenant of the company.
The funeral took place from his
home on Monday afternoon at 4
o'clock, conducted by Rey. R. B.
Owens, surrounded by a large num
ber of sympathizing friends. The
Granyille Grays, under command of
Capt. Willie Landis, acted as mili
tary escort to their dead comrade.
The interment was at Elmwood cem
etery, where the remains were ten
derly laid away in the windowless
house of the dead.
To the broken-hearted mother and
sister we offer our warmest condo
lence in the sad hour of mourning.
A Fine Entertainment.
The concert giyen by the children
of the Oxford Orphan Asylum at the
Opera House Friday eyening, ranks
as one of the entertainments of the
season. The singing class who has
just returned from a trip through
the State, appeared as simple and
unaffected on the stage as they do
at the Asylum grounds. While the
music was neither difficult nor
scientific, the performance was of
great merit, because everything that
was attempted was artistically exe
cuted. We do not recall a single
flat note, nor a voice that was strain
ed to reach a high one. The time
was excellent, particularly so in
the numbers that were given with
out accompaniment, and in regard
to the instrumental music, it was
kept subordinate as it should have
been gracefully complimenting
rather than leading the vocal parts.
The programe was all good; possi
bly the fragments from "Mother
Goose" where each voice was dis
tinct, yet harmoniously blended with
all the others, afforded the class its
best opportunity; still the effect at
tained in the whip-poor-will chorus
was fine. The solos and recitations
were well received by an appreciative
audience.
We were indebted to Dr. Sam
Booth for some happy remarks con
cerning the work of the Asylum, and
was ably seconded by Mr. Coley of
the Asylum staff, who dwelt on the
history, aimes and future prospects
of the Institution.
We think it is due to Miss Eva
Minor to say, that in our opinion,
she has brought out the full strength
of the material she had to work on.
That the children in their manners
and methods bore marked evidence,
of intelligent training and executive
ability on her part.
