It .Will T55 perfectly proper for
everybody in Franklin County -to at
tend the unveiling of?lbe Memorial to
the Stars and Bars to be held In Louis
burg on next Wednesday and Join In
doing honor to the ingenuity of Frank
lin County's noble heroes.
With the effort that is being put for
ward for the Louisburg Tobacco Mar
ket this year there is no reason that
we can see why Louisburg should not
- receive at least five million pounds .
louisburg is certainly the logical
point for delivery.
It begins to look as if it Is time
for the Town Commissioners to make
preparation for the election of Grad
ed School Trustees for Louisburg.
The law says they must call the elec
tion, to be held In October, and if a
new registration is to be had thirty
days notice muBt be given before
closing the registration books.
Now that the Business Men's Asso
ciation has so successfully organized
the tobacco market for Louisburg, we
believe it will do well to turn its en
ergies towards some kind of manu
facturing that will produce* neatpay
roll each week." We have said Be
fore and still believe that It would
pay the merchants of Louisburg to
organize and operate a cotton mill.
The increase in business on account
of the weekly pay roll would justify
the investment even though no divi
dends were ever received. Think .it
over. The proposition can be floated I
in Louisburg.
It has recently come to our atten
tion that Mr. George L. Cooke, Cash
ier of the Citizens Bank, of Franklin
ton, has promoted and successfully
established the growing of cantalopes
for a commercial crop around his
town. The first year it seems the
product of this section received the
blue ribbon for the excellency of flav
or, being a good deal above those from
other sections, which has made of
thenj a favorite on the northern mar
kets. He lias/ so we Team, promoted
the raising of cabbage with a like
success. He 1b now placing the re
sources of his institution behind tb?
growing of dewberries for market,
and he feels confident of a large mea
sure of success with this crop. Mr.
CooM is the type of citizen that builds
any community. He Is not waiting
for some one to bring a proposition
to him, but is taking the Initiative in
these: campaigns of progress. Prank
lin County would be much better off,
financially, if It had many more citi
zens like Mr'. Cooke. We extend to
him our congratulations and best
wishes for the success of each and 1
every one of his ventures.
