and canister upon them, which de-
moralized the colonel, and he waved
his sword and shouted: 'Boys, quit
shootin' at 'em;-quit shootin' I say,
for it just makes 'em madden"
We will just quit shooting at the
farmers, and if they can get the sub
treasury and run it. let them do it.
eIf they can't, then let them get some
thing better. Let US all wait and see.
Is the good old Democratic party has
got to die, let them kill it. Our
Georgia farmers are not in any des-
perate condition and will do nothing
rash or unreasonable. They are bet
Ter off than they were a year ago
The tax returns and the cancelled
mortgages prove that. The farmers
of Barlow were never in so prosper
Eeus a condition. Just contrast them
with the farmers of Kansas, where
Eout of $4,000 farms, $4,000 are under
mortgage. Just think of that. And
$4,000 of these mortgages have been
foreclosed, and the farmers who once
|sowred them are tenants at will, liable
to be turned out at any day. What
IS the matter there? If the laws are
Oppressive, why don't the same laws
brig ruin here, too? There is not
f1,,t ono form IN tWenty-four that has
"a mortgage upon it in Barlow county.
What is the cause of this great AMI
alarming difference between the fam

Oxford is to have a knitting mill.
We talked about having such an enter
prise some time ago but it has failed to
materialize up to this writing. The
people Of Oxford talked the matter over
among themselves also, and finding
that it would be a good thing for the
town they did something else and ,ciu
hare 1t. There is difference between
talking about thing and doing it. But
talk is cheaper to be sure.
A correspondent of the Weldon News
writing from Ringwood gives this en-
couraging report of the crops in that
part Of old Halifax:
The crop prospect brightens each
day. Alternate showers and sunshine
cause all vegetation to luxuriate in the
widest exurberance. Our tobacco
growers are in fine spirits, building
barns, pack houses. g., preparing to put
the golden color OH the ''noxious''
weed when it is ready for the heating.
Cotton and corn crops are better than
at this period for twenty years past,
and who knows but there may be life
in the old land vet.

A Great Speech.

The State Chronicle reporting the
commencement exercises at Wake For
est College, says this of the address of
Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., June 18th:
Wednesday, of course, was the great
intellectual day-made SO chiefly by
Rev. Thos. Dixon's great address. The
principles and sentiments of that speech
are still ringing and will continue to
ring in the ears of those who heard it
for days to come. Compliments and
encomiums are ceaselessly pronounced
upon it. The unanimous verdict here
is, that Thomas Dixon, Jr.. is the
greatest-the strongest man of his age
in the world to-day; and there is moth
ing fuisome or exaggerated in that YER
dict. Nobody expects anything to
equal that address to-day, but what has
been anticipated has been more than
realized in point Of interest and cordial,
happy humor.

Mr.. w. A. Davis, of Oxford, is doing
some fine soliciting for the Oxford Land
Co.-Danville Tobacco Journal.
Well said. There is not more in
telligent and Industrious worker any,
where than w. A. Davis. AS a news
paper man, when we first knew him,
he was remarkably successful as cam
vasser; as tobacco warehouseman "a
member of the firm of Davis & Gregory
he has made reputation and built up
trade of which any concern in the
State might justly be proud; and as one
of the leading spirits in the Land, I'M
provement and Manufacturing Compa-
ny, he displays the same indomitable
pluck and energy that is so character
istic of the man. Oxford has many
wide awake, enterprising and progress

pride, imbued with the idea of building
. great manufacturing city, and they
are working together as one man in
that direction. And chief among these
is Mr.. W. A. Davis. He is a sshustler"
in the fullest sense of the word.

EDITOR GOLD Leaf desire to call
the attention of the Democratic voters of
the Second Congressional District to the
claims which Capt. W. H. Kitchin has on
them for support and recognition. He is
of the people and for the people. He is
one Of the best equipped men physically
and mentally in the State to make a vigo-
rous campaigner and ably represent us
in Congress. This being true, l feel that
he is entitled to the nomination. because
of the great services he has rendered the
Democrats in every campaign. The
Democratic party cannot afford to be I'M
grateful, then certainly it cannot refuse
to reward the gallant kitchin, whose
voice has been heard in more counties in
the State, defending the principles of our
party than any man in North Carolina,
who has not been a candidate for State
office. Nominate kitchin and not only
the second District but the Democracy of
the whole State will join you in rejoicing
in the wisdom of your selection.

Inspection DrilI.

The Vance Guards were out on dress
parade and had an inspection drill
Monday afternoon. They wore their
new State Regulation uniforms for the
first time and presented quite hand
some and soldierly appearance. The
coats are of dark blue material while
the pants are of lighter color, but
not as rank blue as the regular Uni
ted States army uniform. The stripes
and trimmings are white and Altogether
it is very striking and pretty dress
we think. !.
There was good turnout of the
men Al out of Al being in rank and
file. The three absent were away by
permission two on account of sickness
and one out of town. Capt. Perry was
in command, with Lieutenants Moss
and Switzerland and Orderly Sergeant
Jones at their posts. The company
was inspected by Col. F. H. Cameron,
Inspector General of the State Guard.
He found everything in good condition
and in accordance with military discip-
line and regulation, and complimented
Capt. Perry upon the creditable pre-
sentation Of his company and the men
upon their soldierly bearing and the
evidences of improvement shown. Col.
Cameron is a thorough soldier and a
strict disciplinarian, and while he re-
quires each company to come fully up
to the standard he has the cOnfidnce
and esteem of the officers and men be-
cause OF his love of his profession and
his fidelity and devotion to duty.
