County Republican Ticket.
The Republican County Convention
met in the Court House in Oxford on
Wednesday with all the township repre
sented. The following county ticker
was nominated:
For Sheriff Elmer Mangum, Creed-
moor.
For Register of Deeds Harry Davis,
of Bullock.
Treasurer Ira C. Lyon, ol Lyon.
Coroner S. L. Wilson, of Oxford.
Legislature A. Baker, of Oxford.
County Commissioners C. H.Wash

W. F. Royster, Oak Hill; Jas S. Rogers,
of Oxford; R. H. Rogers, of Creedmoor

was re-elected with Dr. G. T. Sikes as

flopped together.
IVSr. Satterwhite Kurt.
Mr. Coleman Satterwhite, who runs
saw mill a few miles from OvfnrH
had the misfortune to loose three toes
Thursday morning under the most ex
traordinary circumstances. Mr. Sat
terwhite's foot was caught and held by
a log, and being alone he could neither
extricate himself or stop the fast mov
ing carriage. Realizing the danger, he
awaited until he was within a couple
of inches of the saw and fell back and
heard the saw tearinng through his
foot. The wound, while an ugly one.
is not quite as bad as Mr. Shatterwhite
thought it would be The saw entered
the foot above the great toe and came
out between the third and fourth toes
Dr Watkins responded to the call and
had the wounded man brought to his
office where he and Drs. Coggeshall
and Thomas performed the necessary
operation and dressed the wound.
Horse Runs Away.
For some unaccountable reason the
horse of Mr. Thomas Dement, which
was standing near the intersection of
College and Hillsboro streets Thursday
morning, became frightened and
dashed off at a rapid rate in the di
rection of the post-office. A lady who
was crossing the public square at the
time, rolling a baby carriage, saw the
fast moving horse and buggy bearing
down upon her. had the nresence of
mind to lift the infant from its carriage
and retreat to safety. It was all done,
it would seem, in the twinkling of an
eye. When the horse reacned a point
immmediately in front of the Court
House he stumbled and fell, but re
bounded like a rubber ball and made
for the big glass front of the Granville
Real Estate and Trust Company's
office, the wheels of the buggy grazing
the building. At this point the har
ness gave away and the horse con
tinued down Main street where he
was later captured.
Some Details About the Fair.
The directors of the Granville County
Fair met Monday and decided on a
few details about the fair. All Con
federate veterans of the county who
present a certificate will be admitted
to the grounds; pupils enrolled in the
schools of the county will be charged
twenty-five cents; the regular adult
admission will be 50 cents.
In case a grown animal, for example
a driving or saddle horse, that von
first prize last year wins again this
year, an additional prize will be given
to second winner equivalent to the
first. This will keep a person from
being deterred from entering because
of having to come in competition with
an animal that probably stands con
siderably head of all others in the
country. This does not refer to ani
mals kept for breeding purposes. It
is urgently requested that ali exhibi
tors 'who can conveniently do so, get
their exhibits in on the day preceding
the opening of the fair No exhibits
will be accepted after 10 o'clock Wed
nesday morning. J. F. Webb
