Gently that he would like to have bust

basis of 30 cents bushel for oats.
This would mean sixty cent corn, seven
dollar hogs and beef cattle, thirty cent
butter, hundred and fifty dollar horses,
ten dollar hay and five dollar farm land
rent prices. If such prices were to be-
come standard. there would have to be
readjustment of compensation for all

BILL WAS THERE +!


Bin was just common sort;
Never dreamed OF wealth nor fame:
Plodded on and didn't try
Schemes 10 set the world afiame.
Kept a-going all the time.
Busy here and every where:
When task turned up TO do. IA.
biii was tnere' .sEA
Didn't congregate around y
Evenings at old Perkins store
Where the other boys would tell
All they ever did-and more.
He Just rose at morning light.
Weather stormy weather ta!-;
Always work on hand to do.
Bill was there!
Never heard him whine around
Cause things didn't go Just so;
In the JOY he whistled loud;
In the pain he whistled low.
Took things always as they came,
Smiling II twas JOY or care;
Never faltered; when things came,
Bill was there!
So he didn't make no stir;
Lived a quiet, busy life;
Lived a life that didn't have
Room for petty thoughts and strife.
He had simple work to do;
Want no call TO do nor dare;
Just constant watch, you know;
Sill was there!
Such man as Bill drops out.
And the world goes just the same;
Doesn't hear death speak the word
When he calls him by the name.
Just the common, plodding sort,
Bill has certain gone to where
They'll remember how and when
Bill was there.

Pick and Cad, Shullsburg: A
banker saHntering home for his din
ner saw ten dollar bill lying on the
'curbstone. OF course he picked it up
and took the number of it. to find the
owner. While at home his wife re-
marked that the butcher had sent in
q bill amounting to ten dollars. The
only money he had with him was
the money he had found, which he
gave to her and she paid the butcher.
The butcher paid it to farmer for a
calf The farmer paid it to mer-
chant and the merchant paid it to
his clerk. The clerk owing the bank
er ten dollars, went to the bank and
paid the note. The banker recog-
niZed the bill as the one he had found
and up to that time it had settled
fifty dollars of debts. On careful eX-
animation he found the bill counter
felt. Now will some of our financial
friends tell us what has been lost in
the transaction and by whom if any.

During the ten remaining weeks of

THE RIGHT OF WAY.
Oxford Opening Up For the
O. & C. Line.
The People Take Action Which Puts Them in
Closer Touch With the Seaboard
Road.

Especial to the News and Observer)
Oxford, N. c., July 3.-Two hundred
of our best citizens held a mass meet
ing last night in the court house to con-
slider the advisability of opening street
across from Gillian street to Main to
enable the Oxford and Coast Line Rail-
road Company to facilitate their bust
ness and get right of way to the OK
ford Cotton Mills, which necessitates
some expenditure of the towns funds.
The meeting was enthusiastically in ia
vor of opening this street and it was
unanimously voted that 81 500 be paid
by the town for this purpose, after which
it was decided to ascertain how much
could be raised by private subscription
and the sum of $500 was contributed i'm
mediately.
This road puts us in touch with the
Seaboard Air Line and will certainly be
of great advantage to the enterprise of
our town, enabling us to ship our pro-
ducts direct to points in both the South
ern and Seaboard territories, thus avoid
ing local rates.
This railroad, it will be remembered.
has been in agitation for the last ten
years, and only through the untiring en-
ergy of Judge A. w. Graham, supported
by such men as Robert w. Lassiter
John p. Stedman, DR.. F.. T. White, r. S.
Usry and host of other prominent citi-
zens could we have the full assurance
of completion in railroad facilities.
Bishop Junius M. Horner, of Ashe-
vile, is in oxford on a visit to his
mother, Mrs. Sophronia Homer, who will
return with him to his home in a few
days. Bishop Horner was accompanied
to Oxford by his two daughters, Misses
Eva and Katharine, and his little son
Junius.
Mrs. Lucy M. Cooper, who has been
seriously i'll for ten days, is hopelessly
i'll today and her death is imminent Her
