Colonel Norton, of Chicago, spoke
to an audience in the Opera House,
Wednesday night, in favor of the
Labor party. His argument was
principally in favor of an income
tax, and for taking the lands from the
railroads which we're granted them
by the Republicans. In regard to
the latter, the Cleveland administra-
ton is doing good work and has al
ready restored to the people 85,000,-

moved some years ago when the Re-
publicaBs were in power.

The two young McDonalds, Andy
and Alex, brothers, who have been
very low, at the Red Cross hospital,
for some time, we are glad to say are
nearly well, one is able to be out and
the other soon will be. They speak
in the highest terms of their treatment
at the hospital, and although only one
of them holds ticket, the other
thankfully pays the price charged for
weekly board and treatment. We
cannot see why every young man does
not hold ticket and thus provide for
himself when sick or disabled.

Ed Steele, the unfortunate young
man who had to have his leg ampu.
tated last week, at the Red Cross hos.
pital, is doing nicely. 1t was thought
for time that he could not live, but
skill and care, even in the most severe
cases, does great deal. and if Mr..
Steele lives he will owe debt of graf
itude to the surgeons of the hospital.
He was fortunate enough TO have a
conductors policy for $4,000 all of
which he will get, also a 81 900 acct
dent policy. He had no hospital tick
ct but came all the way from Au Sa-
bic to get to this hospital.
While the express was rushing at a
great velocity to this city, Monday
night last, and but few miles this
side Ossineke, engineer Simmons was
startled to see two horses on the track
and but short distance ahead. Be-
fore he could stop the train, the loco
motive struck the horses and killed
them. AS soon as the train could be
stopped search was made to see if
person had been with the horses,
which we're harnessed, but no ore
could be found. Yesterday morning
it was ascertained the horses belonged
to Geo. B. Holmes, of this city, and
had ran away from shed he had
placed them in. and went down the
track. One Of the bars of the engine
pilot was broken aud other bars shiv-
cred A. d marked by the collision.

Oxford and Henderson as Leaf Gem
tree,


The Danville Southern Tobacco J0atrn0L
has always shown itself to be a strong
friend Of the Henderson market, and never
loses an opportunity to speak good word
in its behalf But it is not actuated by the
simple desire to say something compll-
mentary, we are proud to say, because 1t Is
always backed up by the facts. There is
merit at the bottom of it as a basis for its
good words, or they would not be given.
The JO3trHGL is not given to fUlsome fiat
terry, and SO what it says of our market
carries with it the weight Of sound argu-
ment founded on fact. Speaking of the
Importance OF Oxford and Henderson as
leaf markets, and the future that awaits
these two prosperous and progressive
towns, the J0asfnUL says:
The recent location of two large stem
merieS at Henderson, \. e., by Messr-.
Alien X Giuter, and of a similar large e5-
tabliShment at Oxford by MesSrS. VIM. ,.
kimbalI Il Co., of Rochester, y. =, means
a good deal for those two growing towns.
The territory was thoroughly canvasSed
and the locations selected after much de-
liberation. The texture Of the tobacco, its
color and the future outlook of these two
tobacco markets were ali taken III 10 Coll
sideratiou before final decision was
reached. These establishments are stand
ing compliments to the present ana future
superiority of Oxford and Henderson as
markets for bright leaf.
We believe the location Of these STEM
merieS is but the beginning OF prosperous
era III the history of oxford and HendeT-
son, 1t Is the beginning Of an illuotTious
future of TWO towns that may yet be twin
cities. The territory throughout Vance
and Granville counties is the richest in the
world for the highest types of bright leaf.
Il is owned aud worked by planters who
understand thoroughly the art of making
the highest grades. 1t is territory, i'll
short, that is we'll adapted to help support
two cities Of 10000 people each in a few
years from now.
The nearneSs of Oxford and Henderson
to each other makes them almost like one
market. The buyer who locates on one
market can easily buy on the other and
thus he has the privilege of two first-ciass
markets. 1t Is gratifying III mark the spirit
OF enterprise and improvement that is
awake Iii both Henderson and Oxford
The people of both towns are wide-awake
and are pushing 10 the trout al long strides
They are inviting strangers to become cit
liens and Offering Inducements for the i'll
Vestlnert of capital. With such enterprise
at Work combined with the natural ad-
vantageS of both Places. it IS but reason
able tn predict for Oxford and Henderson
joint p"puiati0l uf 3J,oJ0 il the next )
years.
