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 of the best. They 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. Meadowswill see that every pile of tobacco brings the high est market price. Gome one, come all and be convinced.

If you prefer a rule by corpora tions to a rule of the people, just keep on voting the Republican tickets. The main drive way leading up to the Main Building of the Oxford Orphan Asylum has been macada mized. Mr. 11. liroughton is greatly im proving the looks of his residence by extending his porch around on the North side. Messrs. Balrd & C'hamblee have purchased the Olbbs store adjoining their hardware etore,$:i,000 being the price paid. Mr. W. I,. Mitchell will soon com mence the erection of two tenement houses on bis lot near the Southern freight depot. The policemen do not enforce the ordinance on sidewalk spltters. It should be abolished If It is not going to be carried out. If you wish to reach the folks in Granville county you will have to put your advertisement In tha Public ledger. It Is read by the people. Oxford Is paying better prices for tobacco than any market In the State. Farmers should bear this In mind when they get ready to market their crop. Oxford's two tine schools, the Ox ford Seminary and Horner Military School will open next week with a large attendance of young ladles and gentlemen. AVe are sorry to say that the peo ple continue to complain of the tele phone service In Oxford which should be remedied as soon as the weather will permit. The patrons of the postotflce are glad to see at the delivery window the pleasant and accommodating Miss Emma Steed after an absence of more than two months. In an attempt to assassinate the Russian Premier, a bomb killed L'S people and wounded 24, among the killed being Premier Stoly pins daugh ter, several notable persona and the three assassins. Durham Sun says Hon. William Kltchln has been Invited by President Roosevelt to visit hlmatOyster Bay. This goes to show you how much Kltchln Is thought of by the chief ex ecutive of the United States. The Public Ledger suggest that the present Board of Commissioner?, as well as Incoming new Board, ride over the main roads of the county and view their bad condition, and have the worst portions of them worked as soon as possible. Mr. John Mayes while coming to Oxford from Stem Monday morning found that the little stream near Mr. Titus Currln's was so full from the down pour of rain that he could not cross so he left his horse and buggy at Mr. Currln's and walked to town. Two of the members of the Fro zen Water trust met In front of the court house Monday and divided up the spoils the amount being one cent each. It should have been a heavy sum If we have to judge by the short weight they give the peo ple. Mr. Claude Norwood, of Buchan an, who commenced clerking for Par ham Bros. Co. one day last week, was taken sick Friday and has been quite sick ever since. His sister Is at his bedside and will be assisted by a trained nurse. We truly hope he will soon be convalescent. The host of friends of Mr. Josh King In Oxford and the county will be glad to learn that he will continue to make his home la Oxford. He will on September 1st, resume his old place behind the counters of Messrs. Long, Blalock & Hawkins, where he will take pleasure In serving his old friends. Mrs. Ed.

Rountree, and Mlsa Nancy Beavers, returned with her to Oxford and they spent a tew days before returning to the sad home. Offerings of primings on this mar ket have been fairly good this week enough to give the warehousemen and buyers some work, removing to some extent their tendency to lazi ness. The demand for primings Is very good and prices firm. The qual ity Is said to be below the average. Prices range from $3 to $15. Mr. Ed Landls was painfully hurt by a fall from his Duggy Mon day. The accident was the result of the breaking ;of an axle throwing uiiu tu me ground. Falling on one foot some of the bones were broken and he baa been confined to the house Ince. Henderson Gold Leaf. ine veterans "broke camp" at Morehead Friday and returned to tneir respective homes. It Is report ed that their "camn" consisted of rooms In the various hotels at More head, at so much per day, during their Btay, fop which they themselves had to pay. If this Is true somebody Is to blame for misleading the vet erans about the camp, for It was commonly reported that "Camp Glenn" would be at their disposal says Ktnaton Free Press. Little Edward HlcJts Is the cham pion horseback rider of the town. The cottage being built by Mr. J. B. Mayes on Asylum street is rapidly going up. Mr. Cam Hunt lost his sorrel liv ery horse Tuesday morning: He had the animal insured for $100.

The odors from hog pens and back lots these hot days are calculat ed to make people do stunts like a cheap umbrella on a windy day turn inside out, Hon. W. W. Kltchln will speak in Oxford Tuesday, September 41tb, under the auspices of the Daughters of the Confederacy. His subject will be "The Confederate Veteran." The man who feels for his last nickel and finds It missing Is not bad ly disappointed when he remembers that be had just dropped It Into one of the slot machines at the drug store. The primary Is over and the con vention has met and nominated a good ticket and the campaign liar and the man who carrleB two faces under one hat brim Is out of a job for the present. We are pleased to see many of our citizens taking active Interest In Im proving their homes and grounds. A little effort on the part of each cit izen would give our town a more In viting appearance. Graham Clark a son of Chief Jus tice Walter Clark, was a passenger on the Great Pacific Mall steamer Manchuria, which struck on a reef and is a total wreck. The passengers were all taken to Honolula. Mr. T. M. Crowell and family left Wednesday for Spray where Mr. Crowell becomes Superintendent of a cotton mill. Mr. Crowell will be nc ceeded as superintendent of the Ox ford Mills by Mr. Charles Lanier. There Is only one way to tell the truth about a thing, but there are a thousand ways to lie about It, which has been fully demonstrated lately by the campaign liar and the man who carries two faces under one hat brim.

The two stores have been swept and garnished and are as "neat as a pin" and you will find It a pleasure to trade wltn Long, Blalock and Haskins this season. Pledged to Remedy the Disgrace. It Is a shame worse than a shame, It Is a disgrace that North Carolina has so long postponed caring for Its Insane, those who should have first place In sympathy. Conditions are better, we are told, than they were years ago, but the fact that thous ands are languishing and perishing In mental darkness for the reason that the State's representatives keep too tight a hold on its purse strings admits of noexcuse or apology. We are glad to say that Senator A. A. Hicks and Representative B. S. Royster.who were nominated Satur day, pledged themselves to do all in their power to remedy this disgrace upon the State. Rough Experience of Mall Carrier. Mr. Dorsey Oakley, the reliable car rier on Route No. 1, had some expe rience with high water Monday. He drove up on Cannady's bridge with the water up to the bridge and just before he 'reached the other side he found the water on the opposite side so deep he was afraid to venture through. He was in a delema, he could not turn round on the bridge and go back. All this time the tor rent of water was rushing up against the bridge and realizing bis danger droye into tha deep water on the other side and his horse had to swim a short distance to get through. Of course Mr. Oakley got wet, but man aged to hold bis mall up and kept it from "getting wet. This was a dan gerous venture and we would advise him not to do It again. teg" MI 88 Mary Belle Gregory, the artistic milliner, Is north selecting her fall stock of millinery and other goods, and ask ber many customers to wait and see her splendid selection before making their early fall pur chases.

Granville Grays at Home. The Granville Grays, under the command of the gallant Capt. Brooks Parham, returned from Ohlcamauga Sunday afternoon in good spirits, and reported a good time. The Third Reglment.of which they are members certainly made a fine record, and the Grays Is one of the best companies In the State Guard. News and Observer says: North Carolina has cause to be proud of the record just made by Its Third Regi ment of the National Guard which has returned from the manoeuvers and field Instructions at Chlckamau ga, Ga., where it was In camp last week. It comes home, not alone with the praise of Its own officers and North Carolinians who visited the camp, but also with the commenda tion of the United States army offi cers who were In touch with It dur ing the encampment. And this com mendation for sodierllke conduct and attention to duties comes among others from Brigadler-General John W. Bubb, the commanding general of the Department of Dakota, who was lncommand at Camp Chlckamauga. The Big Head. The "big head" Is a popular way of expressing a common and yery frequent aliment. It arises from va rious sources, but the real foundation is a lack of sense. A little money de velops It In some people; a few good clothes gives It to others; a little of fice, where a chance Is given to exer cise a little better Job than their as sociates. The truth is no sensible person gets the "big head." The one who become stuck up and stiff-necked from sources of any kind, are weak In the Intellectual caliber. Scrub yourself daily, you're not clean in s de. Clean infides means clean stomach, bowels, blood, liver, clean, healthy tissue in every organ.

Y., has printed upon its wrapper all the ingredients entering into its composition. This fact alone places Dr. Pierce's Family Medi cines in a class all by thenuieloas. They cannot be classed with patent or secret medicines because they are neither. This is why so many unprejudiced physicians prescribe them and recommend them to their patients. They know what they are oomposHl of, and that the ingredients are those endorsed by the most eminent medical -authorities. The further fact that neither Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the groat stomach tonic, liver invigorator, heart regulator and blood puritier. nor his "Favorite Prescription" for weak, over worked, broken-down, nervous women, contains any alcohol, also entitles them to a place all by themselves.

' Neither of the above medicines con tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit forming drug, as will be seen from a glance at the formula printed on each bottle wraper. They are safe to use and potent to cerei Not only do physicians prescribe the above, non-secret medicines largely, but the most intelligent people employ them people who would not think of using the ordinary patent, or secret medicines. Every ingredient entering into the com position of Dr. Pierce's medicines has the strongest kind of an endorsement from leading medical writers of the several schools of practice. No other medicines put up for like purposes has any such professional endorsement. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure con stipation. Constipation is the cause of many diseases.
