EVEN the Republican press of the Territory will be satisfied with Hon
 G. H. Oury in the gubernatorial char. He commands the adnira- tfon and confidence of political
 friends ard the respect and confi- dence of political foes. He should, and we believe will be appointed.- Florence Enterprise
 As Mark Twain said of his manu- script when ship of the desert'' had masticated his overcoat with the manuscript in its pockets, "Even camel couldn't digest those state ments" and so we are inclined to feel concerning the above from our friend the Apollo of the Entespr ise. But then Weedin is hardly "doubt ing Thomas." and believes what he says-some metimes-theugh, in this instance he has shouldered an awful log and liable to say things that nobody else believes. If we under stand the matter, the Democratic papers of the Territory think they have enough of Oury. Indeed, some of them say as much, and there is no question that the people at large both Democrats and Republicans, feel as much. If the Democracy in the Territory have no better timber to make a governor out of, they had better conclude for their own inter- ests and the interests of the territory | at large, to sustain that prominently excellent and popular >man, Gover> hor Trltle. l

watch their green fields of cotton, corn

dant harvest In this section the pros
poets were never brighter The fire.
quent refreshing rains and the early and
late labor of the farmers have made a
continuous garden of fields Of waving
corn and cotton, with now and then ten
or twenty acre field Of as fine tobacco as
grows any where in the State. This is
the first year that the yellow leaf has been
grown in this section, but such fields of
the weed as MIR. W. G. Moore, of Wake
field, and Mr.. Joseph Fuller of Earpsboro,
have is sufficient to convince every farmer
in the community that their lands are as
well adapted to its growth as any section
in North Carolina's golden belt. Good
old horse-apple cider flows as free as
water. Every farm yard is full of young
chickens, and in every spring is a cooler
full of rich buttermilk. Pic mics, bar
becues and fishing frolics are of daily oc-
currence.
