IT IS gratifying to see in some OF
our exchanges fattering endorsements
of our candidate for Solicitor, Mr.. W..
R. Henry. In the Graham Cleaner
of last week appeared the following ::
w. R. Henry, Esq, of Vance coun
ty, is candidate for the Democratic
nomination for Solicitor Of the Third
Judicial District. He is strongly en-
dorsed by the Henderson GOLD / EAT
in an article Of four and one half col
umns in length, in which are also
quoted numerous press opinions and
those Of eminent lawyers expressive OF
high regard for him both as learned
lawyer and forceful speaker. He has
attained a reputation unequalled by
any lawyer of his age in North Carroll
ma. Honors, undoubtedly, await him,
if be be spared.
The gold leaf. [volume] (Henderson, N.C.) 1881-1911, 1890-06-26

OXFORD is on the eve of great
boom it appears Her people are alive
to the true interests of the town and
leave nothing undone that tends
toward its growth and prosperity. Its
Commonwealth Club has done much
to advertise the community and at
tract capital from abroad and the sue
cess of the Land, Improvement and
Manufacturing Company, recently Or
gained, is almost unprecedented.
Her own people show their faith in
the town by putting money into new
enterprises and industries and outsiders
readily follow such example. One
mail recently brought S4,oo in cash
from two places, Wilmington and Fay
etteville, for stock in the Land and
Improvement Company. We have it
from the Secretary, Mr.. w. c. Reed,
that stock is being rapidly taken all
over North Carolina, Richmond, Nor
folk, Baltimore and elsewhere, their
success in placing it so far exceeding
the most sanguine expectations of the
promoters of the enterprise. This
shows what intelligent and well di-
verted energy-concentrated and
united effort-will do. The GOLD
LEAF wishes continued growth and
prosperity the town and people of Ok
ford.
The gold leaf. [volume] (Henderson, N.C.) 1881-1911, 1890-06-26
A SPECIAL from Washington says

From present appearances the
eleventh census is going to be not only
a dead failure, but an arrant fraud as
well. The intelligent guess would be
much nearer correct and less liable to
mislead than what purports to be an
enumeration, but which is no enumera-
ton at ALL
This is about the way it looks in this
State as far as heard from. The fact
of the business is the census will be a
farce, either through the ignorance of
enumerators, whose appointments were
made out in Washington, irrespective
of the District Supervisors whose bust
ness it was to make recommendations
or else it is done for purpose.
The gold leaf. [volume] (Henderson, N.C.) 1881-1911, 1890-06-26

The census Of the country will be
but little better than farce it appears.
There is great complaint of the in
competency of some Of the enumera-
tors and the incompleteness of the
work in various parts Of this State.
The Edenton Fisherman and Farmer
says:
There is great complaint in BERTHE
county regarding the incompetency of
the census enumerators. Not more
than two-thirds of the population will
be returned. The enumerators are SO
incompetent that they will not be able
to get over the territory it is thought.
The Tarboro Southe1uer reports
that there are townships in Edgecombe
county in which not a name been
taken by census enumeration. What
does this mean?

WHY WE ENDORSE TIE CLAIMS
OF W. r. HENRY FOR So
LICITOR,

All things being equal, we believe
in standing by home people and home
institutions Having candidate OF
our own who is the peer of any man
aspiring to the same office, our first
allegiance belongs to him.
We endorse him because there is on
the part of Mr. Henry an ever active
desire to help, and whatever the occa-
sion or the subject he is always ready
whenever called upon with tongue or
pen to inspire and encourage to higher
efforts and nobler actions.
We endorse the claims of Mr.. Henry
because we believe he will make fine
Solicitor. He is a man of unques
toned ability and untiring zeal, and
by diligent study and practice OK
tending over a period of ten years,
has thoroughly prepared himself for
this branch of the law, and is rec
ognized to-day as one of the best GRIM
inal lawyers in the State.
We endorse him because he will
represent the State and the people.
He is the friend of the masses and the
champion of no clique, faction or cor
poration. As Solicitor he would be
a prosecutor in the fullest sense of the
word, but Pe,Sefnt0r never. His
fine character, his high sense of honor,
humane nature and love of justice
would never permit him to exercise his
office for an unholy purpose, while he
would not shrink from doing his full
duty, regardless of all considerations
and circumstances
We endorse him because here at
hcme, where the character of the man,
his superb talents and high ability are
known and appreciated, he is the
choice of the people for that important
Office. 1t is enough to say that Mr..
Henry received the unanimous and
enthusiastic endorsement and support
OF the township convention, and the
solid vote of the county will be cast
for him when the delegates to the Ju-
dicial Convention are elected next
Saturday.
Vance county will go into the Con-
vention solid for Mr.. Henry and this
will not be in the nature of a shallow
compliment on the first ballot, but she
a0iU support him because she uants
him TO be Solicitor. And knowing him
to be amply qualified and abundantly
equipped in every way for the full,
faithful and satisfactory discharge of
the duties of the office, is why she
wants him.
