Our Commercial Organization.
There are so few people who really
take time or have the inclination to
consider a commercial organization in
its true light that we sometimes feel
constrained to write freely about the
earnest, painstcking methods the Ox
ford Commercial Club approaches a
proposition. We have a number of
men in our commercial organization
who can penetrate the future with re
markably business acumen, and to see
them grub around the roots ot a sub
ject is to be thoroughly convinced that
they have for their aims and objects
the material development ot our town
and counfy. It is essentially a busi
ness concern without frills, and strictly
speaking, membership in the organiza
tion should be viewed as ownership in
stock in a business proposition with
the expectation of receiving good divi
dends. Considered in any other light
than from a business standpoint is to
minimize its usefulness, and the
sooner the Oxford Commeroial Club
is viewed from the angle of strict busi
ness the more rapidly will be our
strides. One of the essentials of com
mercial club work is exploration. The
most effective exploration is the home
newspaper. It is often said that the
newspaper is an index to the enter-

rule. But this is not a one-sided affair.
The Public Ledger must of m eessitv
depend upon the commercial interests
of Oxford for its support. The commer
cial club represents these interests.
Anything it can do to strengthen these
interests, any assistance it can give
toward the material betterment, of Ux-

Dr. Hays Address.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch says
that an enthusastic gathering of the
alumni of the University College of
Medicine, in the new building, last
week, Dr. B. K. Hays, a member of the
class of 1894 made a stiring plea for
the type of physician that mixes with
his daily practice the saving grace of
idealism. In no profession, he said,
like that of medicine is opportunity so
frequent for the exercise of usefulness
and for making considerations of im
mediate personal gain secondary to
service,
"The Physicians as an Idealist" was
the title Dr. Hays gave to his address.
He spoke in an earnest, enthusiastic
manner and commanded the undivided
interest of his hearers. At frequent
intervals he was interrupted by ap
plause. If every practioner, he said, in ad
dition to his reading of the current
newspapers and magazines and period
icals devoted to his profession, would
give a short time each day to the seri
ous study of the world's constructive
philosophers and idealists, the medical
profession would become a healer of
men's souls as well as of their bodies,
and would become a greater force in
the advancement of a more perfect
civilization.
"It is fitting that the physician
should be an idealist," said Dr. Hays.
"The Supreme Court may, by succes
sive decrees, change the entire course
of a law. A papal bull or a ruling of a
great conference may even change re
ligions. But between the physician
and the immutable laws of God there
is not intermediary "
Government Test Farm.
Immediately after the County Con
vention adjourned last Saturday Judge
Graham stated that there was a mat
ter of vast importance he wanted to
bring before the people of county and
suggested that Mr. A. C. Parham take
the chair and call the meeting to order.
Judge Graham stated that if the
county wanted to sell the Goverment
a test farm to the extent of 100
acres, this being a part of the County
farm, it would be well to look into the
matter. Chairman Lassiter said he was
unwilling to act without the suggestion
of the people of the county. Mr. E. G.
Moss said that he thought that the in
spectors of the Government would re
port favorably on Granville and Rock
ingham; that he thought the Govern
ment would buy only in fee simple,
this farm to be used as a tobacco test
farm. Mr. Moss stated that he wanted
an expression from the people. Mr.
G. L. Allen advocated the sale of said
land, there being 400 acres he thought
that we could spare 100 acres. Dr. E B.
Meadows offered a resolution recom
mending the sale. General Royster
spoke in hearty accord with the sale
and moved that the following named
gentlemen confer with the Govern
ment: J. B. Mayes, J. T Cozart, G. L.
Allen, E. C. Harris, R. W. Lassiter and
settle upon a price to be paid for
the amount of land wanted. Dr. E. T.
White suggested that the committee
be instructed to sell only one hundred
acres, or as near as possible. Prof.
Webb volunteered the information
that this money was not to be paid by
the Government but by the State.
It is hoped that the County will
not fail to land the test farm. We
have the land to spare, and the farm
would be of great value to the entire
county.
A Shady Spot In Granville.
For scenic beauty one of the real
pretty places in the State is found al
most at our door. It lays south of Ox
ford, out beyond Knott Grove's Church,
less than four miles from the corporate
limits. The county Commissioners
have marked the spot with a new iron
bridge, which spans Hachet's Run a
few rods below its juncture with Foun
dry Branch. It will pay almost any
one to look up this enchanting spot.
To find it follow the old Raleigh road
out past the Colored Orphan Asylum
and beyond Knott's Grove Church,
where the road bears to the east and
leads down a gentle incline for quite a
little distance, and all of a sudden the
new concrete and iron bridge greets
von down deen in the dell. We arrived
there just in time to see the swallows
rise trom tne Dosom oi tne stream ana
disappear into the deep woodland. It
is almost mountaineous in the imme
diate vicinity of the bridge, and it is
unrivaled in Eastern North Carolina
for natural beauty of landscape and
scenery. As far as the eye can see
the stream stretches awav in graceful
winding curves, flanked on either side
by rolling hills, verdant pastures and
the greenest and freshest of forests
Over to the right, overtopping a hill,
sits a mansion, itself a thing of beauty
amid a sylvan grove. Nature has been
lavish in her spread of gifts at this
point. With a never-failing spring of
sparkling cold water gushing from
beneath a hugh flint-rock its semi
mountaineous environments would
.1 J 1
lend a tinge of romance and a gol
den hue to a park. With its rustic
seats and prismatic fountains the
winding dale would be an

County Democratic Convention
The Democratic County Convention
was called to order by Mayor I). G.
Brummilt, chairman of the Granville
County Democratic Executive Com
mittee, which met in the Court House
at 12 m. on Saturday last, Dr. Alexan
der P. Tyer invoking the divine bless
ing. In throwing the meeting open
Mr. Brummett addressed the bmly,
urging that every one should enter
upon the deliberations in the true
Democratic spirit; that a great change
had taken place in the last decade
and that he felt much encouraged by
the steadfastness of Democratic prin
ple, and with one sharp ring of the
gavel he called Senator A. A. Hicks
to the chair, who was made permanent
chairman.
A Democratic convention in Gran
ville County has always brought out
the flower of the county, and the
meeting last Saturday was no excep
tion to the general rule. Tiiere were;
stalwart men all oyer the hall; the best
of harmony prevailed and the ma
chinery of the convention moved along
with clock-like precision.
Messrs. T. G Stem, J. T. Britt and
C. R. Gordon were elected secretaries
On motion the roll was called and it
was found that all precincts were
represented.
Judge Graham moved that twenty
four delegates be sent to the State;
Convention, one-half vote each, and
six delegates at large. The motion
was adopted and Col. R. O. Gregory,
who has been attending theDemooratio
State Conventions since 183, was
chosen one of the delegates-at-large
by acclamation. It was finally
decided that the vote be cast for the
six highest first, then to elect the seven
alternates.
Mr. A. W. Graham made a spirited
speech in favor of Wood row Wilson,
and moved that the convention en
dorsed his candidacy for the presi
dency, Messrs. M. L. Coley and Hart
Overton in strong speeches advocated
Underwood. Wilson was endorsed by
a rising vote.
