The great mud trust in Granville

Republicans say that Governor
Russell, while wanting the senator
ship, knows he cannot get it, and
that he really has his eye on the
position as an attorney in the employ
of the American Tobacco Company;
that his recent appointments of An

to the Dukes, of Durham, as direc
tors of the North Carolina railway,
were with this purpose in yiew.
They have a new revolution as
to names in Tennessee. A paper
says: "A girl named plain 'Mary'
at her birth, dropped ther' when she
grew up and became Miss May. As
she began to shine in a social way,
she changed the 'y' to 'e' and signed
her letters Mae. About one year
ago she was married, and now she
has dropped the 'e' and it is just
plain 'Ma.' That's evolution-
The worst, the saddest thing
about the swallowing up of great in
dustries by the trusts is that indi
viduality is eradicated and men be
come simply machines, or parts of a
great machine. The proud sense
of ownership is taken away and for
mer owners become mere servants to
the soulless corporations which have
crushed them to the wall and haye
forced them to sell out.
Our supplement this week con
tains very interesting matter per
taining to the Constitutional Amend
ment, and if you will read it care
fully you will find that if adopted it
will not disfranchise a single white
man whether he can read or not, as
he is protected by the grandfather
clause. Read it and tell it to your
neighbors. It was gotten up by our
efficient chairman of State executive
committee, Hon. F. M. Simmons.
Mr. Jack Howard, a highly ed
ucated joung man and who has ex
perience in teaching, will open a
school at Tar River Academy for boys
and girls. He will be assisted by Miss
Annie Clement, a bright and intell

that the people of that section of the
county will take adyantage of the
opportunity and will send their chil
dren to this school. We call atten

Maria Montague, a crazy negro
woman, is confined in the county
jail and her tongue wags night and

ance. She curses, swears, indulges
in obscene and filthy language in a
loud voice which can be heard plain
ly by ladies going along the streets,
as well as by all the near by resi
dents in that part of town. Why
cannot she be confined in the negro
Asylum at Goldsboro or at the poor

Commissioners abate the nuisance?
Ex-Judge Spencer B. Adams,
through the working of negro
Pardoner Russell, has secured a

Two weeks ago he was elected by the
directors of the North Carolina Rail

at $30 per month does the work, and

C, THURSDAY, JULY
Death of fir. R. A. Bowden
It is with sorrow that we write of
the death of this young man, who
had just entered the threshhold of
manhood. He was a victim to ty
phoid fever and passed away Thurs
day at the residence of Mr. G. A.
Cretcher, on High Street. His mother
reached Oxford from Statesville the
day before he died and was at his
bedside when the summons came.
His family is originally from this
county, but have been making
Statesyille their home for years.
Mr. Bowden made Oxford his home
last year establishing a shoe shot on
Maine Street and by his uniform
courtesy, strick attention to his work
soon enioved a erood Datrona?o. He
also won the esteem of our people,
as ne was a moral, upright young
man of 22 years.and we truly' hope he
has gone to the land of the blessed.
He was a higly esteemed member
of the Gtanyille Grays, and his com
rades escorted his remains to the
grave Friday morning. The burial
services were conducted by Rev. J.
. Hardaway, witnessed by a large
umber of sorrowing: relatives and
friends.
To the errief-sricken mothr and
the members of the familv we extend
our condolence, and may they be
nabled bv the sustaninsr arm of
Jesus to bear their loss.
Good bye Alger.
Now that Secretary Alger has yield
ed to the pressure that nas been upon
on him for a long time and tendered
his resignation possibly voluntarily
and possiblv at the request of presi
dentit will naturally be expected.if
Alger has been responsible for all
that has been complained of, that
there will be a change for the better
as soon as his successor shall be ap
pointed. But there is a question as to
the sole responsibility. The Presi
dent, who, "with characteristic gen
erosity, has stood by Mr. Alger," as
a McKinley admirer puts it, cannot
be entirely exonerated; for generosi
ty before justice is no virtue, and
justice to the country has long since
demanded Secretary Alger s resigna
tion. Ihere has been and will be a
disposition to hold Mr. Alger respon
sible for all of the shortcomings of
his department, but there surely was
responsibility elsewhere that when
the evil developed the remedy was
not applied. There has been entirely
too much "characteristic generosity"
for the good of the country, and it is
time that the directing power be con
trolled by some other motive than
that of taking1 care of its friends and
of promoting its own political inter
ests. Death of Annie Beaves.
Died at the residence of Mrs. J. R.
Wilder, in Oxford, on July 20, 18S9,
little Annie, daughter of T. Morris
Beves and his wife Mollie Mitchener
Beyes, aged six years and three
months. During a most painful ill
ness, the coyenant keeping God was
with this little one, and enabled her
to bear with sweet patience the suf
ferings that racked her frail body.
This dear child and her twin brother
were left motherless at the age of
eight months, but it was Annie's
good fortune to fall into the tender
care of her relatives, Mrs. Martha
Cannady and Mrs. J. R. Wilder, who
have faithfully supplied the place of
mother to her. Annie was an unus
ually bright child, with thoughts be
yond her tender years, and a loving
nature that twined itself around the
hearts of family and friends. As is
often seen, when the angel of death
has cast his shadow over some young
life, this little one loved to talk of
dying and the heavenly recognition
of her dear mama whom she longed
to see. Her infant mind grasped
without difficulty, the fact that "We
shall know the friends that greet us
in the glorious spirit land," and it is
a comforting thought that today she
walks the "golden streets," restored
to her dear mother, purified by the
blood of the .Lamb, saved through
the promises to "us and our children"
and face to face with the gentle
Saviour who said "Suffer little child
ren to come unto me, for of such is
the kingdom of Heaven." Mourn
her not, dear friends who loved her,
she is not lost to you, but only gone
home to the "beautiful land," where
her pain racked little body, bathed
in the water of the river of life, and
restored to perfect health and beauty
stands with the "shining throng,"
joining her sweet child voice in
chanting "Hozanna to the Highest."
She devotedly loved her twin brother
and hejcan cherish the thought that
she will eagerly watch to greet him
on the other shore.
"She is not dead the child of our affec
tion But gone unto that school
Where she no longer needs our poor pro
tection, And Christ himself doth rule.
Day after day, we think what she is doing
In those bright realms of air;
Year after year, her tender steps pursuing,
Behold her grown more fair."

"No Trust."
The following sensible article is
clipped from the Duham Sun: If
every merchant in this town, and in
fact all other towns in the land,
would put up the sign, "No Trust",
this year and live up to it and except
nobody, eyery person would be bets
ter off next year. Credit accounts
should be kept at the bank. If a
man has any basis of credit he can
borrow of them. The merchants
who trust any other kind of men
take their chances. People to keep
out of trouble must learn to live
within their income, and to avoid
financial trouble is to pay as you go.
The credit system is a demoralizer
and of tea makes rascals out of honest
men. The cash system is the only
true and honest way to do business.
Business men consider accounts paid
every thirty days as cash, and that
time is really long enough.
