The Alliance is fast becoming a
power in the land, and its influence is
being felt by all classes. 1t is oppos-
ed of course, by capitalists and to a
certain extent by merchants. In this
money loving, corrupt age, some peo-
pie cannot understand how body of
working men can combine together
for the purpose of helping each other
without trying to injure others. 1t is
a fact that all good Orders have been
prosecuted and slandered, but in the
end have conquered. Let the ALI
ance proceed in its noble work and it
will prosper. -Sonthera Farmer.
So say we. The Alliance is all right
in principle. The only danger is in
its being led into wrong paths by de-
signing men who have only SELF inter-
est at heart. There is no crime in
combining for self-pro,ec;ion, and in
doing this the farmers do not neces-
sarialy prove that they are antago-
nlstic to the rights of any other honest
man. The trouble with them is that
they have not been more self-assertive
in the past.

CLOSE Up THE RANKS.

There has seldom, if ever, been a
period in the history Of the Democratic
party in this country when it was more
important that every Democrat should
work most unremitingly for the success
of his party than at present.
Never has partisan Congress adopt
ed so many measures for no other pur-
pose than TO assure its permanent pos
session OF the rcins of government, as
were enacted 10y the Republican Con-
gress whose session has just closed.
1t has, as far as possible, without
even decent pretcnsc of Justification,
cast out Democrats from the House Of
Representatives and put Republicans
in their places to simply strengthen
the party majority. 1t has passed a
tariff law with provisions calculated to
hold in allegiance to party the million
aires engaged in old established pro-
tected industries, and by means of
bounties and increased taxes on special
farm products designed to hold the
votes of majority oe farmers.
1t has considered and boasts that it
will yet pass 4 shipping subsidy bill
requiring the people to pay 4 liberal
interest upon the idle millions of the
money kings who contribute the party
campaign funds may be induced to
put into ship building, whether it can
be made profitable to run ships with
out subsidies or not.
1t has also considered and boasts
that it will pass federal election law
bringing our elections under the con
troll of the minlons of The party in
power.
For these and other reasons Demo-
Gratis should feel inspired to unity of
action and unceasing efforts to win
victory at the polls. Our county
ticket is good one, and every man
ought to be elected. Let Democrats
do their full dnr from now until the
sun goes down next Tuesday afternoon
Let there be no break along the line,
no candidate defeated, but our triumph
at the polls include the election of
every Democratic candidate, State
and county.

HENRY PERRY, our candidate for
Clerk of the Superior Court, is extend
ing his acquaintance throughout the
county, and has made en- excellent i'm
preston everywhere. A mans char
acter is best judged by his standing
at home, and certainly no young
man is more highly respected here at
home, where is best known than Mr..
Perry. He is capable and trustworthy
and would make 4 model Clerk of the
Court. Vote for him as against the
man who would work on the prejudices
or credulity of the intelligent voters

The Chatham coal mining compa-
ny made fine exhibit at the State
Fair, which the Raleigh papers say at
tracted great deal Of attention and
created no little surprise among those
who were not aware that such fine
coal was among the products of North
Carolina. There should also have been
an exhibit there from the coal fields of
Dan river, which produce an article
OF semibituminous coal equal to any
that is found anywhere. What pro-
gress is being made in the develop
ment of the Dan river mines we do
not know, as we have not heard of
any operations in that section tor some

TIE GOLD LEAF expects to see
Capt. A. H. A. Williams elected to
Congress in the Fifth District. He is
a man of fine ability and will make a
good Representative. He is free from
the faint of corrupt association. His
interests and views are Numerically
opposed to the gang, which will strain
every nerve to send his opponent to
Washington. His candidacy offers
seif-respecting citizens Of all parties an
opportunity to cast their votes for one
who would not use his power and pat
ronage against the welfare of the very
ones who gave him that power. He
favors the Legislative reforms, which
have regards for the interests of the
people. The better class Of voters in
all parties will cheerfully give him
their support.

I. |. HARRIS, Republican candidate
for Clerk of the Court, is going about
the county telling the colored people
that he is not in the Republican party
for office, and that he does not seek
the office of Clerk for the money there
is in it. OF course. Bat he is doing
all in his power to get elected just the
same. However, a majority of the
voters of Vance county will see to it
that Mr.. Harris does not get elected
and thereby relieve him of the burdens
of office holding and the consequent
pay attached thereto.

OWEN DAVIS, ESQ.
The Progressive and Successful
Young WarehOuseman OF
Whom We Wrote
Last Week,

Honor to whom honor is DUE If
the spirit enioined by this familiar say
ing were more universally practiced
perhaps it would be better for US all.
At any rate the GOLD LEAF believes
IN giving man credit for what he is
justly entitled to, letting his virtues,
his worth, his achievements, stand out
in bold relief before his fellow-men.
And so we write now to add a
chapter to what we said last week of
one OF our most worthy, popular and
successful young business men, Mr..
Owen Davis. Well as we knew him
we did not give him credit for as much
as he was entitled to. Speaking of his
business interests and the estimate
placed upon his judgment and executive
ability we might have added that
among other positions of trust and
honor held by him he is also director
In the Richmond and Danville Railroad
company, director in the Henderson
Storage warehouse company. director
In the Citizens Bank and member of
the Public School Committee for this
district, of which board he is chairman
Having omitted to mention this last
week we take pleasure in passing it to
MIR. Davis credit now. For one so
young it speaks well for him that he is
held In such high esteem by men of
sound business judgment, who seek to
put only the best executive ability in
positions OF Importance and great re-
sponsibility. That ''true merit has it's
reward" is forcibly illustrated in the
case of Mr.. Davis.
And in this connection we may state
that it is gratifying, to know that his
business is rapidly increasing. We
observe that his sales have been heavy
this week and farmers are pleased with
the prices obtained. Nav we not in
dulge the hope that the GOLD LEAF
has had something to do with making
this SO? Well, we are not afraid that
any pledge we have made for Owen
Davis will not be faithfully carried out
by him. He will do whatever he prom :
ises, or whatever we have said he
would do. Try him and see. Possessed
OF ample capital to successfully prose-
cute his business, and having the COR
dial cooperation and support of the
large body of buyers on this market
together with being liberal buver
himself, Mr.. Davis stands in position
to make it to the interest of those who
sell their tobacco with him.
And this the farmers seem fullv to
appreciate, as the large and constantly
increasing sales at Davis warehouse
show. Mr.. Davis has not put his light
under bushel, but is holding it proud
ly and trimuphantly up that all NAV
see and know what he is doing. He
deserves patronage and is getting if.

HENRY PERRY, the Democratic
nominee for Clerk of the Superior court
is young man of the highest probity
and strength OF character. He is the
type of man that men should delight
to know, for honor bestowed on such,
is an incentive to good citizenship
among young men. Mr.. Perry will
make scrupulously upright and pains
taking officer and will serve the public
faithfully and acceptably in every
particular. He is popular, because
the people appreciate modest worth,
and he will be elected, as he deserves
to be,

make a first class official. He has
every qualification to successfully dis

w. T, CHEATHAM.
A Sterling and Successful Young
Druggist.

One of the most sterling. enterprls-
ing aud successful ofthe young business
men of Henderson. is w. 7. Cheatham,
and one of the handsomest and best
kept places Of business in town Is the
Modern Drug Store. of which he is the
PROPRIETOR. Starting IN business about
four YEAS ago his success has been con-
tiuuous and to-day his name and bu>l-
ness are known all over this section.
The firm originally was W. T. Cheat
ham & Co.. his father DR.. ". L. Cheat
ham, being the Company IN the
concern, His connection with the
business was a potent factor i'll build
ing up very large trade which the
firm enjoyed from the beginning. Mr..
W. T. Cheatham who was the active
partner and manager had prepared HIM
self by careful and diliigent study for
the vocation of druggist, and being OF
a steady. industrious and energetic ma
ture, he was not long in establishing a
good trade.
About two years ago DIR. Cheatham
retired from the firm. Mr.. W. I. Cheat
ham continuing the business alone.
He has added to his stock, fixtures. &c.,
from time to time until now he has
one of the largest and most complete
drug stores to be found outside OF the
large cities. He carries full line of
drugs. patent medicines, toilet and
fancy articles .perfumery soaps, brushes.
ETC., and can supply anything desired
wholesale or retail. Besides these he
puts up many preparations of his own
which have wide reputation and IA
large sale.
While he has been eminently success
full in business all the while, Mr.. Cheat
ham tiatters himself that he is now bet
ter prepared than ever to serve the
public having greatly increased his
stock and facilities for doing business.
together with the fact that he has been
fortunate in engaging the services of
very competent and EXPERIENCED drug
gist and pharmacist in the person of
Mr.. Augustus Bradley, for some time in
the laboratory of Park Davis & Co.,
manufacturing chemists, of Detroit,
Michigan. The knowlede there gained
is worth years of patient study and
practice and makes Mr.. Bradley man
whose services any one is fortunate in
securing.
Mr.. Cheatham assures us that he
is determined to conduct a Modern
Drug Store not only in name, but that
it shall be all that term implies. He
is going to keep up with the progress
of the times. Look in upon him often
when ever you want anything in his
line-and see what he is doing.
