to Mr. and Mrs. II. A
An angel passed n garden fair
With roses all full blown.
She paused to choose from them
One for her very own.
Softly she crept amid the Mowers
And all their beauty bright,
Where nestled close by mother rose
Lay a bud of purest white B,
Innocence with a baby face,
Watched by the keeper's tinder care.
Its fragrance hero was borne for aught
Why should it linger
Then the angel softly sighed.

Tenderly she plucked the bud
And bore her treasure away.
Then through the pearly gates she
One more jewel for a crown;
For God hail sent the angel
And taken back his own.

Mr. Cleveland's Human Qualities.
Looking back over a friend-
ship of many years, I set more
clearly than ever before two
things that were characteristic
of Mr. Cleveland. In his
toward human nature then-
was a keen perception of its
weakness and limitation, com-
tined with a fifth faith in the
gradual and ultimate triumph of
its nobler qualities. ThU made
him in the broad sense of the
word, a democrat, but not an

you can get that all together you

had a sincere mistrust of
j excessive legislation. The hope
; of bringing the millennium y
j statute was one that he did not
share. But for the law as
and tor the safeguards
which it offers to common rights
I of person and property, had
la very holy reverence. Con-
science and courage both enter-
ed into this feeling. It came out
again and again in his public
acts and utterances. It shone
also in his private conversation
and in the whole bearing of the
man.
He had that kind of

but which the world at large hes

It seems to me that Grover
Cleveland will take his place
among the great Presidents of
the United States. But his
greatness did not consist in the
possession of extraordinary
of common manhood to an
extraordinary degree. He rep-
resented the best type of a plain
American man raised to the Nth
power.
His friendship, to which he
admitted younger men with such
a hearty and natural sympathy,
was frank, generous, and stead-
fast. The whole man went into
it. Those who knew him thus
remember him, not
as a personage, but as a

committee,, arrived in the city
yesterday afternoon and were in
conference until a late hour
last night with the
dates on the Democratic ticket
with regard to the conduct of
the campaign. They also dis-
cussed the preparation of the
Democratic hand book, the
of the advisory committee
and other matters relating; to the
campaign.
Chairman Filer while here,
will decide upon the time for
opening the headquarters in
Raleigh.
Mr. Kitchin is in splendid
health, although he has had no
vacation this summer. He will
deliver the first of the
campaign at the opening of
Rockingham court at Wentworth
Monday, August 3rd, but this
will probably not be the keynote
speech as that will be delivered
after the Republican platform
shall have been published.
Chairman Eller will remain in
Raleigh today, Mr. Kitchin re-
turning to Roxboro this morning.

CONDITIONS.

The Greenville tobacco market
today began sales for the
j of 1908-09 under most favorable
conditions. Following the heavy
storm of last week that put -x-
work on the farmers in
care of their crop and made
it too busy a time for them to
get to market, largo sales were
not expected today, yet each of
the five warehouses had very fair
bleaks the opening pries
were entirely satisfactory.
There were a number of
people out at tie- warehouses to
see how the market d off
and to get an idea of opening
prices, and several remarks were
heard that if prices kept o-i as
they Started today the farmers

The first sale was at Pas ham's
warehouse, then following in or-
at the Gum, the Liberty, the
Star and the Brick. The
wan houses had good forces,
and the buyers came u; with

business and anxious for tobacco.

It is the experience of every stockholder in this company that he never
made better investment, for the five years of its operations the original stock-
holders have been paid 1-2 per cent in cash dividends. That is the result of
co-operation, good management and sound business methods.
Again it is the experience of every farmer who has sold his tobacco at the
warehouses of this company that he received higher prices than pother houses
could obtain. For the season is prepared to even surpass
the fine record it has made in the past, hence it is to the interest the farmers
to sell their tobacco with this company. J

Plan for primary for
nomination of democratic
dates for and township offices
and members of the and
township executive committee, in
of resolution adopted by the
state democratic executive committee
at its meeting held in Raleigh, on th
26th of July, 1904.
Section At the meeting
held for the purpose of calling a
county convention to nominate
candidates for county offices and
members of the legislature,
the county democratic executive
committee may, upon motion,
determine the question of
such candidates by
election as provided for in
the following resolution of the
state executive
That this com-
will provide an optional
primary, to be adopted by the
executive committee of any
county desiring to nominate
county candidates and members
of the legislature by a primary.
That, the chairman is
ed to appoint a sub-committee to
formulate such a plan, and when
approved by the chairman the
said plan shall become a part
of the plan of organization.
Where any county executive
committee has already called a
primary, such county executive
committee may formulate and
promulgate its own s for
such election already ordered.
The plan provided for in this
resolution will not supersede the
present plan except in
counties adopting this
See. If before such meet-
is held there shall be present-
ed to the chairman the county
executive a petition in
writing, signed by one fourth of
. the members executive
committee, or a petition in writ-
signed by at least one
known democratic voters
of such county, asking that a,
meeting of the county executive j
committee be held the
pose of considering the
of nominating such
dates by primary election, then
shall be the duty of said chair-
man forthwith to call a meeting
of his county executive commit-
tee within ten days to act upon
the said petition. In any county
where it has been decided by
the majority of the executive
to nominate
dates by primary election, shall
be held under the following rules
and
Sec The time of holding
the primary election shall be not
less than thirty days before the
general election, and not less
than fifteen notice shall be
given of the time and places
when and where such primary is
to be held. When a primary
election under this plan shall be
ordered, notice thereof, giving
the date ind the various ballot-
places and the names of the
persons appointed to hold the
same, shall be published in the
Democratic press of said county,
and copies posted at every ballot-
place in said county, and
such other notice given as the
county executive committee may-
think proper. In such primary
election the county executive
committee shall designate the
places where voting shall be
had, and the shall select, as far
as practicable, the places
ed by law for holding the general
state elections. They may- how-
ever, select other places if the
convenience of democratic voters
justifies such but there
shall be at least one voting
in each township.
Sec. For the purpose of
holding election, the said
shall appoint two well
i. . ,., i
or other voting district in
the county, who shall conduct
such election, receive the ballots,
i count them, declare the result
and make a written statement
thereof. If any person appoint-
ed to hold a primary election
, shall decline to serve, become in-
or become a

shall so declare, and he shall be
