THE CHAIRMAN WAS LEFT.

Recently the chairman Of the Repub-
lican Executive Committee for Durham
county approached James Holloway,
OF Oak Grove township, and told him of
the call of the county convention, and
urged him to see that the good,
straight Republicans were selected in
their township meeting as delegates to
the county convention. Now, James
Holloway is a colored man, but one
who has worked hard. made good
crops, saved his earnings, bought
and paid for good farm, and is to-
day counted one of the most prosperous
farmers of Oak Grove. Jim said to the
chairman, 'You say you want three
good Republicans from Oak Grove to
represent that township in the county
convention"
"That's what I said,7 replied the
chairman.
WELL said Jim, you cant get
them"
why" excitedly asked the chair
man.
Because they are not there"
This brought the chairman to his
feet, and in dramatic manner he
shrieked, what has become Of all the
good Republicans in Oak Grove town
ship?n
In quaint, dignifed, yet earnest
manner, Jim said, "They have all gone
over to the popufists."
The chairman bundled himself up
and with an IF you don't look at me,
won't look at you" air, he left for
parts unknown.

Now the rates at the Carolina are a.
low or lower than any other house IN

fronts on Main street and runs back
with cross street leading to the rail-

This would be a splendid site upon
which to erect q hotel. Not more than
one hundred yards from the railroad

street, would put a hotel erected here
at once in touch with the travelling

A three story building could be
erected with the ground floor in store
