We have In this Issue an attractive advertisement from the Oxford Sav Ingg Bank, which our renders will carefully read. The establishment of this bank Is a great advantage to this section, and especially to our young people who should early learn to save their earnings, and also to our laboring people who can by this means save small amounts at a time. People should think of savlngns well as getting, for "a dollar saved Is a dollnr .made." Let our people try the savings system and they will soon find that they will have a nice gum laid by for a rainy day. Save your earnings. . tVOne Chainlets Columbia for gale cheap. In good condition.

Judge Neal'i Charge to Grand Jury an Able One-Solicitor Brooks, &c Granville Superior Court convened In Oxford Monday at 11:30, the train being late and the Judge opened the Court ubout that hour. Judge Walter H. Neal, of Lauren burg, Is presiding and we think with credit to himself and entire satlsfac tlim to the bar and to the people. He Is personally a man of fine appear ance, but unassuming in manner.but Is dignified and wears the Judicial ermine with ease and grace and dis patches business promptly. We have heard no unfavorable comments on his rulings aud believe he Is fair, Im partial aud merciful when the neces sity of the case requires It, but atthe same time does not hesitate to en force the law rigidly when necessary Ou the assembling of the Court the following excellent gentleman were Irawu as grand Jurymen: Glaude L. Allen, Foreman, J. C. Frazii-r, J. L. Clark, Jr., Win. A. Ulackley, D. N, Hunt. J. F. Usry, W. T. night, J. H. Uooch, K. L. Burnett, Lugene Usry, D. S. Howard, K. S. Williams, A. 11. Speucer, It. L,. iiugen, w; f. l,you, Nat Jones, W. B. Currin, li. W. Hart Barney Dixon was the officer who wuited on the Jury. J udge Neal's charge to the Jury was clear, forcible aud to the point.7 It cousumed about hours and cover ed briefly but fully tue criminal law of the State. He especially empha sized the law iu regard to carrying coiiceuled weupous and Uie law on foruicatiou and adultery. He spoke of how ofteii the law forbiddiug the carrying of couceaieU weapons wat violated, aud urgeU the grand jury to do theirduty uuU to iuuictthose who were guilty of this offense, whether high or low, rich or poor. He spoke earnestly and eloquently i if the ruin to society wrought by al lowing Illicit intercourse between parlies whom the people knew were guilty ol such couuucu He spoke of the purity and sanctity oi the mar ried state as a divine institution es tablished iu the Uarden of Kden and of tlie importance of allowiuguo vio lation oi it eituer by allowing im proper reldjlious iu tne home or by uol puuishiug loruicatiou aud adul tery aud tnus destroy the iusuiuuou of marriage. Alter the charge was over we heard a farmer inquire whet uer or uot tue J udge bau beeu a preacuer an Ue was powerfully well versed lu the scrip ture uud could no doubt preacu a good sermou. It is generally admitted that Judge SkiA is oue among the beet J udgt s wlio has presiued here in years. We hope und believe that his district will keep him ou the Bench lor years to come, as he is an houor 10 the dis trict, the beuchaud tne State. Judge Neul has uever sought nor held oi lice before the JudsesUip. He has beeu an able and successful attorney for 20 years and duriug that time sought uo office aud accepted noue. He hus beeu coutent to serve in the ranks of the Democrat party, the glorious and grand party of the peo ple, but there he did some of the beet work ever done lu the State and was one of the prime movers in ridding North Carolina from Negro-llep-Pop-Kule and latter-day carpet baggers of lsliii-US. He is a self-made man aud a good oue, aud has ruised him 3 if to distlucliou by the strength of his character aud the force of will. Long may he live to hold the scales of J.ustice. They do uot niuke any better or more elticieut Solicitors than A. L. Brooks, w ho cuuuot be excelled, with a bl illiaut record behiud him, did not arrive until Monday uight, but Mr. Murphy, a young attorney from up-to-date Ureeusboro with uo scales to mar his progress iu this end of the dinlrict, came ou Mouduy aud tilled his place as Solicitor very acceptably until Tuesduy. Lourt.wlll coutiuue through the week und it is not probable that the docket cau be cleared In that ttme. Some 20 minor cases have beeu dis posed of by submissions aud paymeut of tiues aud cost. The people are deeply Interested In the protecliou of the purity of our young womeu aud hence the expect ed show-up of T. S. Rogers, who Ig charged with rape on the person of Miss Harris, in tue face of f 500 re ward, fulled to show up for trial, al though those uear to him said he would, but the editor uever believed It. We believe the summoning of so many witnesses wag a pure game of bluff, aud that Rogers had uo Idea of coming to trial, even according to rumor, he has lieeu In the county ten days lu the face of the officers of the law of theoncegreat county of Gran ville. We do uot hesitate to say that we do believe a- single officer In the county hug made any effort to bring Rogers to Justice. The case was called Wednesday and continued, and capias Issued for Rogers. Your message ought to he properly addressed, you cannot afford to use a ny stationery but the right sort. You can get the right kind of stationery at Hall' Drug Store. Our stationery, Inks, neim and pen cils are the Iwst ever run do or han dled. Come to Hall's Drug Store and you can Ret what you want in, this Hue. Pbou. TJ, I HURRAH FOR BILL KITCH1N1 Ex-Judge Graham and Gen. B. S. Royster Not Candidates for Nomination. We note In our exchanges that the field Is full of candidates for the nom natlon for Congress In thin; the Fifth District, We believe all the gentle men whose names have been men tioned are good men, but as but one can be nominated It Is wise that the District nominate the most desirable man from every standpoint. And In deciding who that mau Is should by all means consider his availability, his capacity, his experience and his post record and character. While we believe all the candidates in the Held are worthy men we can gay without hesitation that Hon. W. W. Kltliln combines all these qualities more perfectly than any other mau who Is In the field. In the first place Tie has th" experl- ence and that counl for much. In legislation as In other things, It re- benefit gained will he ve'-y consider qulres time for the bet man to pre- able. pare himself to make a good Repre- i seirtatlve iu Coiigrecs. During the first term he only learns the ' ropes," and after that he gradually progres ses, the longer be may a the more ef ficient he becomes, fc. very body w ell knows that .Mr. Kltcliiu is a f ir bet-, ter Representative tiian when lie was first elected, though he was always i a good one. He is also the most available mau and can poll a larger , vote than any o'her in.iu lu the dis trict. But best of all he is a mini of great abilities, a muu of solidity, of great Influence at tUe National Capi tal, aud a mau about whose good name there has never been the slight est taint of suspicion. All thiiigscoii sldered the State has produced few such men as W. W. Kitchlu. Of course if either Gen. li. S Roys ter or Ex-Judge Graham were candi dates for the nomination for Ci ingress we would be for them first, but we are Informed they are not, and we are for W. W. Kitchlu first, last and all the time. We are always lirst for our home friends, und especially for such estimable men as JudgeGraham and General Royster, but while their names have been mentioned in l he papers they are not lu the race, and old Granville will be solid for the re nomlnation of the gallant Kltcbin. Dr. Hall Lecture. A right large audience greeted Dr. Win, Edwin Hall, of New York City, who lectjred attheOxford Seminary last Mouduy eveuiug.
