CARD FROM MR. BOBBITT
.-——''
Editor Public Ledger:
| Mr. Crews tries to leave the im-!
i pression thru the columns of the
I Public Ledger that I am paid to be
;for McLean. I can truthfully say
that I never received a cent from any
'one in my life to vote for them, or;
work for them, neither have I ever
I told anyone that I was for Bailey in a
i barber shop, or anywhere else, who
! ever said that certainly misrepre
jsented me, whether it was done in-!
I tentionally or not. Just trot your-,
[ man in and I can face him.
I have never asked Morrison/ for a'
| favor in my life, nor do I have'to get
j my living thru office. I will have
| Mr. Crews to know that I have means
j enough to live on without being paid
| to vote for anyone, neither have I
; ever told anyone that I had to have
j an office to live on. I would like
| very much for Mr. Crews to tell me
j who that man is, and I will pay my
| respects to the gentleman.
! Neither have I rode all day on Sun
| day trying to persua.de people to vote
i for McLean. , j
| Now, Mr. Crews, you boast of your
; wealth, so did the rich young ruler.!
| He tore down his barns and built
j bigger ones and what did Christ say
to him? Mr. Crews, you are not dis
; cussing issues and I don’t care to air
your life to the public therefore I am
now done.

Kind Words About 1
The Special Edition i
Of The Public Ledger J
We appreciate the many kind j
words that hhve been said about the !
isSd11editI°n or the Public 'Ledger
issued last week:
beautiful paragraph was
written by Miss Jeannette Biggs
correspondent of State papers and
published in the Raleigh News and
Observer:
“Oxford citizens are proud of the
special edition of the Oxford Public
Ledger which has just come from
the press. It is well gotten up and
a credit to its editors, D. A Coble
and Edwards Coble. It has select
ed as its watchward, “Watch Oxford
and Ganville Grow.” Every word,
every cut in it, are creditable and
will greatly aid in the progress and
prosperity of Oxford which is rap
idly pushing to the front as one of
the State’s most progressive towns.
It tells in a wonderful manner of
the enterprises and the leaders in
the business and civic activities of
Oxford and Granville.”
This from the Durham Herald is
highly appreciated:
“The Oxford Public Ledger l^st |
Friday came out in an edition of 40 :
pages of well-printed, well-arranged j
and well-illustrated newspaper. Ac- J
cording to its own statement, the ob- ;
ject of the edition is to let the busi
ness world know where we are, who
we are, and then what we have to ,
offer those who are seeking to
change their present business and
location and wish to find the best
place to locate.” That is a laud
able purpose, and a glance through
the Ledger leads us to the conclu
sion that it performed its mission in j
a most creditable manner. We con
gratulate the Ldeger upon its enter- i
prise, and the people of Granville
should appreciate the efforts that
the Ledger is making in behalf of
the progress of the ceunty. The
Ledger had a good town and
county to present to the world, and
it did its job well.” t
This from Mr. S. E. Boney, di
rector of North and South Carolina
Public Utility Information, Raleigh,
is also highly appreciated: '
My dear Mr. Coble: May I contrib
ute a word of appreciation of youT
excellent national publicity edition
received at our office May 30th? It i
is a most excellent piece of work
from both an editorial and a me- i
chanical standpoint. The subject
matter is fine and your display ads :
are tip-top.
But what I would like most to j
commend is the wonderful effect you i
produced from your illustVations. I j
never saw any better. The cuts of \
the Oxford Baptist Church ' and the |
girls’ dormitory of the colored Or- j
phanage are like photographs.
Being an old newspaper man, these :
things naturally have their appeal, j
Further, the name of your publiea- j
tion also has its personal appeal to j
me in that I was for several years a '
member of the “Public Ledger” '
staff, Philadelphia, Pa.
WEATHER IS STILL
VERY UNFAVORABLE j
Crons Twenty Days Late In Oran- ^
ville. and Prospects Not Over SO
Per Cent Normal. ;
Weather is still very unfavorable j
for all farming operations and crop
conditions twenty days late and the {
prospects not more than fifty per !
cent normal.
Sixty-five per cent of the cotton j
acreage has been plowed up and j
planted over, or replanted. Some is !
still to be replanted this week, and j
a good deal has been abandoned or i
planted to other crops. Cotton in j
sandy soils is in worse condition
than in clay and loamy soils, i
Tobacco planting is still being done j
on many farms. Plants are sorry i
and late, but a high per cent ot ..
those set are living. It is generally j
claimed that a late tobacco crop ,
means poor quality, though with fa- (
vorable weather during June there j
can be a great improvement in the I
tobacco prospects.
The worst feature of the whole i
situation is the little attention and ;
preparation that has been given the j
corn and other feed crops. Every j
one is expecting still to plant their
feed crops and there is still tim^ to
get them in, but the grass is coming
up in a hurry in the cotton and to
bacco fields and there is a great
danger of the feed crops being neg
lected.

ONLY DEMOCRATS TO
VOTE IN THE PRIMARY
Chairman Walter Neal Sends Mes
sage To County Election Boards.
Laurinburg, June 5.—Judge Wal
ter H. Neal, chairman of the State
Board of Elections, today sent the
following telegram to the chairman
of every county election board in the
State:
“It has come to my attention that
persons who are regularly affiliated
with the Republican party and who
are known to be Republicans in their
communities have expressed their in
tention of voting in the Democratic
primary to be held June 7, for coun
ty, district and State offices.This is
contrary to the letter and spirit of
the law regulating the hold
ing of Primary. I have, there
fore, called upon you to notify
all registrars and judges of
election in yppr covjnfy to see that
the law is strictly observed and that
no persons be permitted to vote In
the Democratic primary who is not
regularly affiliated with that party
and who does not intend in good faith
to support the nominees of the Dem
ocratic party in the November elec
tion.
(Signed) “WALTER H. NEAL,
“Chairman State Board of Elections”
Schools Too Sacred
To Be Trifled With
Figures recently compiled by Mr.
Allen, North Carolina’s superinten
dent of public education, show that
Granville county stands well to the
head of all the counties of the
State. This is a splendid showing
for Granville, and one of which citi
zens generally should be proud.
But one of the things that con
cern us most at present is to get full,
returns from the property we al
ready have. To do this there must
be unity in each school district in
the county. The school divided
against itself can not function effi
ciently.
Moreover, the school 'houses of
the county belong to all the people.
All the people have been taxed for
the money to build and equip them.
Besides, all the people are paying
taxes for their support. Conse
quently, no citizen, or group of citi
zens, has any moral right to cripple
the efficiency of any school by coun
tenancing, stirring up or helping to
keep alive strife or factionalism in
any school district. The citizens
who persist in doing this are enemies
of public order and wasters of the
people's money.
During the summer all differences,
if %any exist in any school district in
the county, should be permanently J
settled. Next fall the county will !
have better school houses than it ev
er has had before. And we owe it to j
the children of the county to see i
that each school opens with a united j
community behind it. Public edu- I
cation is too sacred a thing to be j
trifled with.
THE COUNTY SCHOOLS
In Dr. Davis’ card, published in the
last issue of the Public Ledger an er- •
ror occurred in the statement that
“there exists an indebtedness of'
$95,000 and is not included in the!
$400,000.” We had it $40,000. j
