..THEMAN WEARE LOOKING FOR"

y. II. \. Williams Is certainly the
strongest man in the District in the
Democratic party, and if the party
wishes to ago in to win" he is the nan
by ali odds. He could get almost the
entire vote of Granville, Person and
Caswell, and good vote in Surry and
Rockingham and some in Forsyth and
Guilford. The nominating convention
has not been held yet and by the time
it does meet he will have developed
more strength. Williams is the peo-
pies choice, and we might as we'll
knuCkle down and make his nomina-
ton unanimous as he is undoubtedly
1.-The man we are looking for Mt.
Airy Macs.
We fully endorse the above and
truly say that Hon. A. H. A. Williams
is oman we are looking for to carry
this District by handsome majority
No better standard bearer could be
selected as he is every inch a man.
His manly and lofty qualities of head
and heart have endeared him to the
people among whom he has lived and
labOred with SO much honor to him
self and usefulness to the people of
Granville. He Is a man of a wide
range of information, and is we'll &C
quainted with public affairs and is
thoroughly Conversant with the great
political economical questions of the
day.
Badly Williams is a man of clear in
telleCt, ever alert, we'll balanced, and
Is splendly qualified for important
Congressional duties. He is fluent
and entertaining speaker, and in de-
bate would be strong and effective
His pure and upright manhood has
given him influence among men, and
II the fortunes of the party and the
farming interest OF the people of the
Fifth District should be entrusted to
him he would undoubtedly assume the
great responsibilities with proper ap-
probation and discharge his duties as
becomes true, worthy and able rep
resentative of his people.
He has ever championed -the-1ights
of the masses of the people, always in
the forefront advocating equal rights
and privileges to all and special favors
to none. Coming direct from the
masses his sympathies are with the
farmers and laboring classes, and his
heart beats responsive to their great
needs. He IS a prominent, active
worker IN the great organization in the
interest OF the farmers that extends all
over our country; an organization
which is destined to bring needed re-
forms to an oppressed people and
place 1t upon line of true dignity
and prosperity.
Williams is just the man the people
need IN Congress to represent them,
for in him they will find one true to
his trust and faithful to the end in
their behalf. Let every county in the
the District rise with one accord and
nominate him by reclamation, and
the grandest victory ever achieved for
Democracy in this District will be
the result.-Oxford PnbHt Ledger.
The convention will be held in
Greensboro next Wednesday, July 9TH
At present Capt, Williams appears to
be ahead and is daily gaining strength.
He would make brilliant campaign
and be elected if he should receive the
nomination. The GOLD LEAF hopes
he may win.

IN HIS address at the Unyerity of
North Carolina Col w H. $. Burswyn
OF Henderson, reminded his hearers
of an interesting historic fact connec-
ted with our State, and which showed
that the fathers were wise in their dis
trust of the Constitution as originally
passed. Col. Burgwyn stated that
upon the adoption of the Federal Con-
stltution, one of The amendments re
quested by North Carolina, but which
failed of adoption, was to prohibit
Congress from :. interfering in the
times, places and manner of holding
elections tor Senators or Representa-
tlves, or either of them
If this amendment had been adopt
ed the revolutioniSts and conspirators
in the Congress would not Row be
sCheming to destroy the elections in
the South for members OF Congress bv
putting them under Radical control.
What pity the other States were not
as coutlous, as flr-seeing, as liberty
loving as was our own Commonwealth.

SIMMONS AND THE ALLIANCE.

The Raleigh correspondent of the
Durham GEObf says:
Mr.. f. Nj. Simmons is the leading can
didate for the Democratic nomination
in the second congressional district.
The Farmers Alliance propounded to
him questions regarding his views on
the sub treasury bill and other proposed
measures. Mr.. Simmons replies frankly
and in very able way. He does not
favor the sub-treasury bill, but he is
the friend of all measures and plans
which he believes Will be of real bene-
fit To- the farmers.

The Charlotte Chronicle says that
bachelor member of the Cabarrus
county Far association has offered $40
to any couple that will get married at
the Falr--Grcensboro U0,kmaH.
1t was hardly worth while to state
that the member IS "a bachelor" \

probation OF the sacredncss of the
marriage VOW, would not offer Il pre-

A S FLY.
The Marvellous tanner In Which the
sect COnceais Its Eggs,

The Marvellous Manner In Which the In
sect COnceais Its Eggs.
The insect world is full OF wonders,
and II is marvellous how many of these
tiny creatures conceal and preserve their
eggs. Some will deposit them in extra
ordinary places, others will insert them
In the skins Of living animals. Others
again deposit their eggs where the young
grubs after coming from the egg find
God close at hand.
Among these last mentioned are in
sects who bestow great labor in the
cradle OF their young. The place they
select Is q hard part of a leaf or the
woody branch Of a tree. Ii this thew
saw out a hole large enough to contain
their eggs, whence their name, saw
flies. For this purpose they are pro-
vided with an ovipositor of peculiar con-
struction. 1t consists OF two long pieces
closing like a sheath over q third.
In the tenthredo this third piece CON
tains two saws, each of which has been
compared to the used by cabi-
net-makers. The tenon-saw il single,
but that of the tenthredo is double, con-
sisting Of two distinct saws. The insect
in using them throws out one saw, and
while it is returning pushes forward the
other. This alternate motion is con
tinued till the cut is made, when the
two saws receding from each other con-
duct the egg between them into its
place. Not only is the edge of the saw
notched into teeth, but on every tooth a
number OF smaller teeth appear Chi

Strong Points of the Luts STYLES.

The strong points Of the dress of the
present are suitability and appropriate
ness. The toilet for the drawing-room
in no way resembles the gown suitable
for the promenade, and the woman who
confounds the one with the other finds
herself greatly at variance with the
canons Of good taste and elegance which
happily prevail just now. The extreme
caprice, the luxury and elaboratoness Of
home and evening toilets are finely
counterpoised by the rich and studied
simplicity Of those designed for the
street. The only fault of the latter cos
tunes consists in the tendency to
lengthen the skirt, a departure in the
wrong direction which can lot DO
checked too soon. For the rest, woman's
dress at home and abroad is just now
most commendable. Draperies are easy,
and skirts graceful, tho ugly tournure
dead, the sleeves loose, and tight lacing
almost II thing Of the past, for women
now dress to walk, row play tennis and
even cricket and base ball. They ride
drive and breathe. Wool is at u premium
for gowns and underwear, and common
sense shoes are "up head. IN. Y.
