I use this method of soliciting your support, for the reason that I have not had, and have not at present, the time and ouportunlty to call on you In person. I a n busy with my of ficial and private duties from ten to fourteen hours every day. Very nat urally I desire a renoiulnatlon to my present position. Tarty custom does not sanction trie defeat of a county otliclal after his tirst term, unless there Is special reason for It. I want to ask if there Is any reason for depart ing from party usage In my case? Surely I am more competent now than when I entered the office, and am better prepared by reason of my experience to render the people of Granville satisfactory service. I sub mit that to defeat me now would be an undeserved reflection upon me. I not only promise to serve you as faithfully as I have served you. but I promise you more faithful and more efficient service. 1 need not again re fer to my work for the Democratic party. Every Democrat.aud for that matter.every Republican knows how I have labored In season and out of season for the success of my party. And the good citizens of Oxford can not be unaware that my paper has always stood for the material, Intel lectual and moral advancement, not only of Granville county, but of this town as well. I confess to a peculiar desire to receive the full support of my town and my township. I have purposely refrained from so liciting a single vote In my worthy opponents township. He will receive and deserves to receive the compli ment of the full support of his neigh bors. Is It presumptlous In me to ask and to expect the same consider ation from my neighbors?

' OMETHING TOtHOWl OVER. We bought more tobacco of the last crops than all the other warehouse firms in Ox ford combined and have sold nearly all of our last years purchases. We expect to buy more of the new crop than the other three warehouse firms com bined. We will leave it to any sound thinking man if this does not give us the advantage of any warehouse in Oxford. We said at the beginning of last season we wanted more than ONE MILLION pounds ourselves and we bought more than ONE MILLION. We say now that we want 2,000,000 pounds out of this crop. The truth is we are in position second to no firm in Oxford or in the State to get you the oream of the market. Our buyers are now more anxious for new tobacco than we have seen them for quite a number of years and the Farmers Warehouse is prob ably in better condition to take care of your interest than it has ever been since it was built. You will find that we will have our excellent warehouse, which is the best in town, bet ter fixed than it has been for the comfort of our farmer friends. Ourwarehouse force is made up or the best. J hey are as follows: L. W. Stark and S M. Watkins auctioneers, S. M Watkins will manage the floor, Wesley Bryan and Thos. How ell will keep the books and J F. Meadows will see that every pile of tobacco brings the high est market price Gome one come all and be convinced. Thanking you for all the past patronage, and promising you service second to no one in the future,we beg to remain Yours very truly J. F. MEADOWS & GO iVe ocal aconics.

Susan Downey.no doubt the old est colored woman In this section or the State, died near Oxford Sunday afternoon at the home of Wru.Feace. All who known anything about her age say Bhe was 105 at her death, and If there Is anything in looks she was evidently a very old woman. Saturday morning about 11 o'clock the kltcken of Mr.R.P.

We are gratified to see In his office again the genial Sheriff Howard re stored to health. During his absence i the office was well looked after by MeBsrs. R. E. Booth and C. J.

We regret to learn that the fresh et In Tar River washed away the bridge at Crews' Mill Tuesday night. which will proye a great lnconve" nlence to the people and will affect the trade of Oxford. We hope the County Commissioners this time will replace It with an Iron bridge as a wooden one will not stay the re, and the cheapest In the long run. New Tobacco Rolling in.Prioes Ranged from $3 to $15 per Hundred. Friday proved a good day for new tobacco as 75 loads rolled In and our splendid warehousemen were as frisky as a sweet little lassie with her first beau, chatting glibly with their far mer friends. The buyers also accord ed them a warm welcome doing their best to please them In prices. The sales were lively and new tobacco went off briskly at good prices, rang lng from $3 to $15 per hundred, and we learn that the farmers were well pleased with the prices. Farmers can bet on our warehouse men and buyers every. time, as they use every possible means to get out side prices for all tobacco sold In Ox ford, which naturally makes it the best all round market In this section of ths State. Ohl ma'nis would be scarce and hard tojfind Could they be made to see, How grace and beauty is combined fiy using Rocky Mountain Tea. J. G. Hall, Read Royster, 3"T jt UNFAIR POLITICS.

Fine Musical Entertainment. Last Friday night, under the direc torship of Mr. Darius Eatman, a mu slcale was given In the Opera House, and In spite of the heat a good audi ence witnessed the performance. The program was of a varied nature, com prising solos, duets, quartettes and Instrumental selections. In each In stance repeated encores were given the performers. The local talent, Mrs. John Hall, Miss Minor, Mr. Eat man and Miss Louise Buchanan as accompanist were In unusually good form, and the assistance given by them and Miss Ray, of Raleigh, and Messrs. Poteat. Davis and Powers, of the Wake Forest Glee Club, ena bled Mr. Eatman to present an en tertainment entirely pleasing to the most critical of music lovers. The proceeds will be utilized to pur chase hymn books for the Baptist Church. Our Town Fathers.

Wheeler were ap pointed a committee to buy the same for the benefit of Edwards Ladder and Reel Team. We are sorry to learn that the question of putting down more gran oltthlc pavement on more of our side walks was voted down, as it would add so much to the looks of the town as well as a comfort to the citizens The pavement that has been put down In the business section has proved a good advertisement for Ox ford, and is to be hoped that the Com mtssloners w ill reconsider the ques tlon If the town Is able to do It and a majority of the property owners are In favor of extending the grano lithic pavement. r (on)ii)g and (joing.

A great many Americans, both liitm and women, are "thin, pale and puny, with poor circulation, because they have ill treated their stomachs by hasty eating or too much eatiug, Uy consuming alco holic beverages, or by too close eontine int iit to home, ottice or factory, and in conseq ueuce the stomach must be treated in a natural way before they can rectify their earlier mistakes. The muscles in many such people, in fact In every weary, thin and thin-blooded person, do their work with great difficulty. As a result fatigue comes early, is extreme and lasu long. The demand for nutritive aid U ahead of the supply. To insure perfect health every tissue, bone, nerve and muscle should take from the blood cer tain materials and return to It certain others. It is necessary to prepare the stomach for the work of taking up from the food what is necessary to make good, rich, red blood. We must go -to Nature for the remedy. There were certain roots known to the Indians of this country lefoe the ,,dvent. of the whites whivt iawjr iaiu the kuowludge of the settlors and which are now growing rapidly in professional favor for the cure of obstinate stomach and liver troubles. These are found to be safe and yet cer tain in their cleansing and invigorating effect upon the stomach, liver and Mood. These are: Golden Seal root, ijiieen'n root, Stone root, Bloodroot. Mandrake root. Then there Is Black Cherry bark. The medicinal principles residing in these native roots when extracted with glyc erine as a solvent make the most reliable and efficient stomach tonic and liver ln vigorator, when combined in just the right proportions, as in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Where there is bankrupt vitality such as nervous exhaustion, bad nutrition and thin blood, the body acnuires vigor and the nerves, blood and all the tissues feel the favorable effect of this sovereign remedy. Although some physicians have loen aware of the high medicinal value of the above mentioned plants, yet few have used pure glycerine as a solvent and usually the doctors' prescriptions called for the ingredients in varying amounts, with uli-olutl. The "Golden Medical Discovery" Is a scientific preparation compounded of the glyceric extracts of the aliove mentioned vegetable ingredients and contains no alcohol or harmful habit-forming drugs.
