POOSEY STIRRED

At Poosey Friday night, Coun-
ty Attorney 0. p. Jackson deliv-
ed another of those little more
than luke warm democratic adj
dresses which have been attract
ing SO much attention in this and
other counties recently. There
was a big and enthusiastic crowd.
The statements of Mr.. Jackson,
who had with him some intimate
knowledge of the League of Ma
tions, as well as other data, were
SO convincing that there were
rousing cheers very frequently.
The origin, formation, object
and other matters pertaining to
the League were explained as
they have never been before by
the speaker, and there were in
quiries here and there which were
resultant of clear and understand
able answers, with the apparent
result that all were satisfied It
is said the event was the most
genuine of any democratic Grafton
delivered in that neck of the
woods in a long time.

BIG STOCK SALE
PREDICTED SOON

That the sale Of horses and cat
tie next court will be large, is the
opinion advanced by many who
have stock to sell. Some of them
state they have been holding tbs
stock owing to the good grass
which has been abundant, but will
not take more chances, and will
place the stock on the market
within short time. There has
been considerable moving OF stock
especially cattle, recently, at fair
prices, however, the prevailing
opinion is that the present price
will not be maintained long, and
this is one of the reasons given
for the contemplated selling.
The sale of horses and mules
will again be in evidence at the
next court day, for which extern
sive preparations are being made
The sale at the recent event was
hampered, it is claimed, from the
fact that the streets of the bust
ness section Of the city were
blocked The sales were held On
various corners, with the result
that interest was so divided that
there were few good sales.
