One of Henderson's Most Popular and
Esteemed Citizens.

Henderson, n. c., Feb. 25.-(Special.) }
Henderson lost one of her best and most
popular citizens Saturday night in the
death of DIR. J. III. Tucker from con-
sumption.
He was considered an excellent physi-
clan and up to three and half years
ago, when his health began to fail, did
a large practice here.
DIR. Tucker was about 60 years old
and leaves a wife and six children.
For nearly three years his friends and
neighbors have watched with anxiety his
declining health, as it appeared that it
was merely a matter of time with him.
On last Saturday might at 11:15, while
a storm of wind, snow and seet ragged
without, in the quiet of his home, sur
rounded by his Borrowing family, DIR.
Tucker passed away for that home of
peace and rest. He was doing fairly well
until few minutes before the end
which came suddenly, hut quietly and
peacefully.
DIR. Tucker was born in Brunswick
County, Virginia, at the home of his
father, a prominent and rich Virginia
planter. His family was closely related
to the fuckers, Atlzinsons. Graves and
other notable Virginia families He was
educated at William and Mary College
and ait the Virginia Medical School at
Richmond, which latter institution he left
in 1862 tC join the Confederate navy
as a surgeon. After the war he located
at Okolona Miss, where he did a large
and lucrative practice, being associated
with DR.. Cain, near Nashville, Tenn.
In 1872 DR.. Tucker was happily mar
ried to Miss Mile Hill, then one of the
notable bellies of Eastern Carolina, and
about two years thereafter located at
Henderson. His life ait Henderson was
truly a model one. As Il citizen he loved
his State and beloved South. AS ply
stefan he was devoted to his profession,
in which he was eminently successful
and had the happy faculty of winning
the respect and esteem Of his profess
sional brethren and of binding to himself
in the ties of love and friendship his
patients No call ever went unanswered.
AS a man, he was the soul of honor, de-
spising a small or insincere act; and lived
an exemplary Christian life. He was
reared in the Episcopal church, and was
devoted to his church, her doctrines and
forms of worship. As friend he was
true and unselfish in his words and
deeds. AS a husband and father, DR..
Tucker was ever faithful, tender and
loving, and made himself, unconsciously,
the centre and idol of a fine family
and Il sweet home circle.

A FARMER ON THE TICKET.
Colonel J Bryan Grimes for Secretary
of State.

Editor News and Observer: | ask per-
mission as an unpretenti0uS TURNER and
active. lifelong Democrat, to say few
words through your paper III regard to
the great availability OF ]. Bryan Grimes
just at this time as Il candidate on the
State ticket for Secretary of State.
No one doubts his perfect ability to
ill the post with eminent credit to him
self and the State. He is possessed of a
clear, strong mind and has plenty of
good common sense and sound judgment.
He has been closely identified for fifteen
years piJst with agriculture. i'll fact
almost ever since the aSsaS sinatiOn of
his distinguished father. lie is an edu-
Gated and intelligent agricultTist and
has been closely identified with all pro-
gressive enterprises connected with his
chosen vocation. He possesses ample
capacity for public speaking. He is a
clear. forcible and convincing speaker.
What he utters carries the weight of
great earnestness and sincere conviction
with it. 1t is not wise or polite to
make up the State ticket almost entirely
of lawyers: far he it from me to say
a word in disparlgement of that noble
profession. hut there are SO very many
places in the public service that can be
filed by lawyers that it is only just
that our calling should be let i'll now
and then. The policy Of nominal
ing Col Grimes just at this time. it
seems to ME. should be apparent to all.
He represents one Of the great central
ideas that will be Incorporated in cur
platform viz. hostility TO trusts. lie Is
the president Of the North Carolina
Tobacco Growers Association, an organl-
cation formed for the purpose Of pro-
tecting farmers end fighting the trust
that does more damage to us in North
Carolina than any other. His nomina
ton will he Il recognition Of that great
organization Of which he is president.
and of the great agricultural interests
of our State. which. to say the least, have
had sCanty consideration. at the hands
of our party. 1t will encourage and
incite the farmers of the State to extra
ordinary interest and activity in the
campaign. which will insure the election
of the ticket and the adoption of the
amendment | trust the farmers and to-
bacco growers in the State will attend
the Democratic primdries and conven
tions and give expression to their views.
This section Ct the State will ask Col.
Grimes nomination at the hands Of the
convention.

Beyond here the stream flows through
deep mountain canyons, undistu-bed by
man, and will make an ideal fishing
place.
