Cannady. They are al much better now. We dare say everybody in Ox ford will be glad to learn that Mrs Sarah Hall, who has been quite sick for sometime at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Henry Perry at Hen derson, is much better. Miss Sue Hall is still by her bedside. we nave received tne nrst num ber of the Southern Fireside pub ashed at Frankhnton by our old friend R. U. Gully. We trust he wil not be tossed about too roughly on the "sea of j mrnalism," and that the Southern Fireside will have smooth sailing. If A A T T iur. a. xi.. uyon, or ijyon, was on the market Tuesday with a load of tobacco. He sold at the Johnson Warehouse and scooped in an aver- average of $30.54, the lowest price was $8 and the highest $50 per hun dred. It will be seen that Zick Lyon is a regular hummer on high averages. -'-Mr. Nat M. Cannady took his many friends and relatiyes by sur prise on Thursday last by becoming a benedict. He was quietly mar ried to Mrs Bettie Cannady by Rev. J. R. Pace, of Oxford, at the home of Mrs. Cannady near Wilton. We join their many friends in wishing them a happy wedded life.

Owing to the severe weather but little work was done on the cotton factory the past week. Mr. Watson is completing a nice green house and a commodious barn on the Hicks place near town. Mr. Will Dorsey has moved from Broughtonsville to Oxford and now occupies the Holloway house on Ral eigh street. The first quarterly meeting of the year will be held at the Metho dist church the first Sunday in Feb uary by Dr. J. T. Gibbs. The twin elephant sign in front of the double stores of Mr. J. D. Brooks, on Hillsboro street, attracts a great deal of attention. The Fayetteville dispensary was a profitable and well managed fcff dir. It cleared $12,341 39 for 1900 above the saloon system. Death is the total eclipse of all life's hopes to those who have no hope in Jesus, and it be hooves every one to be ready for the eclipse. Andrew Lyon, of Knap of Reeds and one of our long standing colored subsribers was in Oxford Friday and called on the editor to leave & silver wheel for the Public Ledger another year. Mr. James Paris, who has charge of the street force and rock crusher, has commenced to rock the sidewalks which will prove a blessing to the large number who have to walk, and of course will thank the town fath era for remembering them. Our Baptist friends are prepar ing to have a grand churcn rally, with a social feature attached, in order that all the members may become acquainted with each other. It will probably take place some evening next week. The editor is pleased to learn that his old friend Thos. H. Jones, who now lives near LaGrange, has made enough off his crop of this year to buy him a nice farm in that sec tion. He is a good farmer and knows how to raiso fine tobacco, and we wisn nun continued success in good old Lenoir county. The Washington Post publishes a picture of our gallant and bold ag gressiye Senator F. M. Simmons and accompanies it with a short sketch of the life of our great Democratic leader. His head is now bowed in sorrow over the death of his be loved mother, and every true North Carolinian extends warmest sympa thy to him in the hour of deep grief Gov. Aycock has remembered in a very nice way one of his old darkey friends. He has employed old Isaac Hodges, the well known colored porter at Clegg's Hotel ureensDoro, as a servant in tne ex ecutive manson. Uncle Issac is fsom Goldsboro and he knows the Governor from the cradle up. and besides knows more people by their names than and person in the State today, and will fill the place with distinction and pride. The North Carolina Tobacco Growers' Association met in Raleigh Jan. 16 and John S. Cunningham was unanimously elected Presi dent. The association instructed Mr Cunmgham to go before the Legis lature and obtain .a charter giving the farmers of the State ample power to erect at any desired point tobacco cotton and fertilizar factories. Some of the prominent farmers with means express their purpose to sub scribe liberally to these plants, which they believe will greatly aid the far mers. It is a pleasure to us to note that Governor Aycock requested our very fncient Adjutant General Beverly S. Royster and Qaartermaster Gene ral Macon to continue to act until he has had time to consider his course fully. In refering to our be loved and highly esteemed town; man wumingion messenger save: 1 1T r i . . j - r Col. B. S. Royster, of Oxford, has made an active, efficient Adjutant General of the State. His reap- apointment would be a recognition of fidelity to duty and official sue cess." There is a bill before the Legis lature which is noyel, but which its author declares to be more important to the farmers than any other meas ure which will be presented at this session of the Legislature. It pro vides that the Penitentiary shall buy, lease, or build fertilizer facto ries and operate them with convict abor under skilled direction; that the agricultural department shall name the bramds and warrant them; that there shall be no license or priv ies: e tax on these State made fertil izers, it is in tact a thrust at the ertilizer trust. The bill will haye a powerful backing and will create a stir. - i C, THURSDAY, JANUARY 24, 1901. Note the change in the adver tisement of W. S. Btck for sale of land from Feb. 13 to the 20:h. Read change in the adveitise ment.of Mr. Wash Lyrch, as he is just the man to sell you a splendid watch. We call attention to notice of incorporation of Oxford Seminary for Girls, and to amend the charter of the Oxford & Coast Line Railroad by the Legislature. A large number of members of the Legislature from the fifth con gressional district called on the Governor and iirged him to retain Gen.B. S. Royster as Adjutant Gen eral. Ottis Hobgood, the popular mail carrier on Route No. 2, who has been sick for a few days is better. Mr. Buck Brown has succumbed to the gripp and is in bed. Mrs. Frank Spencer who has also been quite siek is much better. Durham Herald says, the exam ple of the noble Wilmington girl who refused to allow the wedding ceremony to be performed because the groom-to-be appeared on the scene under the iiflueuce of whiskey is to be commended. If there were more girls like this there would be fewer drundards. Everybody has to tramp, tramp, and will wear out shoes, and we in vite your attention to the advertise ment of Mr. Will Dorsey, who has succeeded Mr. E K. Howard in busi ness, as he is selling shoes at cost. Now is the time to buy, so go and see him as he says they must and ohould be worn Oy the people. Do you intend to pay for the Public Ledgei? If not please write us a postal card and tell us so and the paper will be discontinued at once. We cannot afford to send it to any one free of charge. We keep on our lists no "dead heada" if we know it. So if you do not intend to pay for the Pubiic Ledger for any reason let us know it at once. The Oiforu market still on top on prices. All our warehouses made splendid sales Tuesday as our farmer friends after the sales had bright smrles on their faces. It is said for the quality of leaf of to bacco that Mr. Giaude Allen made one of the best ayerages at the Johnson Warehouse that has been made this season, he averaged $20 round. The Congressional investigation of the West Point Military Academy has borne fruit rather unexpectedly. Saturday night, when the Congress men were hurrying their inquiries to a termination, the cadets of all four classes held a meeting in Grant hall and unanimously decided to abandon exercising and hazing of every form as well as the practice of calling out fourth class men. Wilmington Messenger: As we understand the question Judge Graham and others who agree with him are not opposed to increasing the governor's salary if it can be done legally and properly. If it is unconstitutional to do so upright and perpendicular men will be com pelled to antagonize. But the ques tion is, can it be done constitution .i t a m? j any, leganjT mat an increase is needed no one can doubt. Starving an official is no part of sound and wise economy. The Legislature will not act on 111 A . appropriation Dins until it sees clearly what the tax status will be, and also what can be done for the public schools. It is asserted that the direct appropriation for public schools will certainly not fall under $250,000 a year for the next two years. Much larger appropriations than ever before are being asked for, but all, or nearly all, will be con siderably cut down. The pressure for greater aid for the insane is greater than ever. Wednesday the branches of the Legislature jointly declared Hon. F. M. Simmons to be United States Senator for the term beginniner on March 4, 1901, and expiring at noon March 4, 1907 the successor of the greatest demagogue of the past cen tury, and the people are happy over the glorious eyent. Raleigh Post says: "What a reyoiution and re vulsion of conditions since January, 1895, when the triumphant Populist eader Marion Butler was riding high upon the topmost waye ot fu sion ascendency, a hundred legisla tors fawning before him and court ing his attention ! Now only five of tbe 170 lawmakers of his political faith and household and even they so poor to do him reverence. Sic transit gloria mundi. The Republi cans voted for Congressman Pearson of the Ninth District. Your attention is called to sale of land in another column by E. C. Harris, substituted trustee. Queen Victoria after a reign cf over 60 years.Qaeen of England died Tuesday afternoon, at 2 o'clock cf paralysis, surrounded by the mem bers of her family, and thatcountiy is in sadness and gloom. President McKinley sent a telegram of con dolence. The man who has an excuse or a reason for being in business ought to tell the people what that reason is, and C. A. Carroll, the grocery man, next to Johnson Ware house, says his only excuse is, that he i3 determined to sell yen the best freshest groceries for the least money. His standard brands of flour are the best, and if in doubt it try them. Same way with all his goods, the best or none. About 3:30 o'clock Saturday af ternoon, a sad and almost heart rending accident occurred at the of residence of Mr. and Mrs. M. Haskell, on Pine street, Durhamy which their foui-year old son, Bar ney, was burned to death. It is not iinown bow he managed to catch his clothing on fire, but is supposed thai heandhisjbrother were trying to make a fire, as an oil can was near oy. Durix&m Sun. Oxford was full of farmers Tues day marketing tobaecj, and our five warehouses had large breaks. The bidding was lively nd strong by our ouytrs, and good averages were the watchword as out in&rket ia hard to down on high prices on all grades. It is said by those who are com petent to judge that three-fourths of the tobacco crop in Granville aas been marketed. Although the crop w8 not near up to the stand ard, yet our farmers have, upon the whole, realized fairly good prices for the crop. It is a pleasure to us to see that Hon. A. W. Graham's servicss are proving so valuable in the Legisla ture, as Le is a hard worker, and can bo depended on every time. He is chairman of the important com mittee on Proposition and Griey snces of the House, chairman o the Third Division of judiciary com mittee, and is a member of Finance, Roads, Constitutional Amendment andUlaims committees. Prof.W.H.P. Jenkins is a member of the Educa tional committee of the House, which is an important committee. Canned" Life. What is canned life! The term occurs in J. P. Mowbray's article in Everybody Magazine on "The Making of a County Home." "Canned life. Domesticity in tins Every joy embalmed and labelled and kept on a shelf. Duties in a row, always needing the same old opener and all having the same taste. Pickled surprises, condensed amuse ments, concentrated religion.

Reader, are you sure you have not one or the prin ter s dollars sticking to the bottom of your trouser's pockets? Feel down and see it we are right. Blown to Atoms.

Beat Ont of an Increase of His ' Pen A Mexican war veteran and prominent editor writes: "Seeing the advertisement of Chamberlains Colic Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy, I am reminded that as a soldier in Mexico In'47. I contracted Mex can diarrhoea and this remedy has kept me from getting an increase la my pen- on for on every renewal a dose of it restores me."

A gloom pervaded our community Wednesday night last after we had is sued the paper when the sorrowful announcement was made that Cadet Redmond Bann at Horner Military School, had quietly passed beneath the veil of tears, and a bricrht and popular young earthly light had gone out forever. He enjoyed the holidays with his devoted parents at Rockv Mount. F and a few days afterwards was taken sick which developed into typhoid- pneumonia, and gradually grew worse until death claimed him as its own. He received every possible attention at the hands of the school authorities and Dr. S. H. Cannady, the excellent attending physician. Hon. and Mrs. B. H. Bunn, his de voted parents, were at his bedside when death oyershadowed his brow, and the tender sympathies of our whole community go out to them in the hour of great sorrow which al most suddenly cast a dark shadow upon their hearts and home. Tbe remains were taken to Rocky Mount Thursday for burial, and it was a sad parting with the cadeta and efficers of the school, as they loved and honored "gentle, kind, manly and companionable Redmond Bann; gentle as a girl and blessed with a lovable character," said ona of the cadets. Mr. Bunn is an old time friend of the editor, and our warmest condo lence go out to him and his dear wife in the overshadowing gloom that hangs like a pall over their bleeding hearts. When life seemed brightest a shadow has fallen across their happy home in the taking away of a deyoted and manly son, and we trust the sunlight of God's everlast ing love will comfort and sustain them, remembering, "The Savior takes to his heart His jewels from below, To live in mansions of eternal rest, Where pain and death can never go.
