  thought 
  young 
  Green, 
  then 
  but 
  a 
  mere 
  boy, 
  could 
  never 
  

   make 
  it 
  a 
  success. 
  But 
  he 
  had 
  strong 
  faitli 
  in 
  a 
  brighter 
  

   future 
  for 
  Durham; 
  that 
  it 
  would 
  be 
  one 
  da}'', 
  not 
  far 
  dis- 
  

   tant, 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  leading 
  tobacco 
  marts 
  of 
  the 
  State; 
  and 
  thus 
  

   animated 
  he 
  toiled 
  manfull}^ 
  at 
  the 
  case 
  to 
  build 
  up 
  his 
  pa- 
  

   per. 
  The 
  Plant 
  has 
  surmounted 
  many 
  storms 
  of 
  adversit}'', 
  

   and 
  is 
  to-day 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  leading 
  newspapers 
  of 
  the 
  State. 
  

   Mr. 
  Green 
  is 
  still 
  quite 
  a 
  young 
  man, 
  but 
  he 
  wields 
  great 
  

   influence 
  in 
  the 
  formation 
  of 
  public 
  sentiment. 
  A 
  bold, 
  

   aggressive 
  and 
  able 
  exponent 
  of 
  the 
  people's 
  interests. 
  His 
  

   paper 
  is 
  and 
  has 
  always 
  been 
  thoroughly 
  Democratic, 
  and 
  

   has 
  added 
  largely 
  to 
  the 
  success 
  of 
  the 
  Democratic 
  party 
  in 
  

   Central 
  North 
  Carolina.
