The people of Moore county are be
coming agltat d over the question of a
new court house. Some advocate the
building of a new court house, while
others see the necessity of one, but say
the low prices for crops leave the tax
payers In such condition that the build
ing of a court house is not warranted
at this time.

automobiles over the Capitol High
way and should the weather be dry
the duet will cover everything along
the road.

they calculated on shipping about 800
' cars of peaofaes to the Northern mark
ets this season, and that If the ten-year
average prloe obtained the orop would
bring half million dollars. One man
expects to sell his orop for #80,000 00.

. Aberdeen Is becoming ambitious*
The Moore County News says that Mr.
■ 3. McN. Johnson, of that place, throws
a bomb In the camp by the statement
that the folks In the Bandy belt want a
' new county with Aberdeen as the
oounty teat. The proposed lines would
cnjLa considerable slice pH of Moore, a
little from Hoke, Blohmond and Scot
land, and would be prlnotpally that
.belt that is included in the peaoh ter
ritory of Moore and just across the.
border. Mr, Johnson was not encourag
ed. greatly In his proposition, hut he
says that the movement would have
many backers, and that It has a good
chsnoe to win out. It Is stated that it
- the plane mature, the next Legislature
will be asked to create the'proposed
new oounty.' Then you'll see at orap
that will probably equal the one that
was "pulled off” when the Legislature
was asked to oreate Lee county, for
It will be a light staged by the. “God
bleesed Macks" on both sides.
With the opening of the spring sea
son the boys become possessed of the
baseball fever and we hear the ques
tion asked: “Will Sanford .have a
team this season?” More Interest was
taken In baseball here last season than
ever before. This was because we had
a good team and a good park where
the boys could play to the best advan
tage. The oost of building the park
and grand stand was pretty heavy and
at the end of the season this debt had
_not all been paid off. Some funds were
raised by subscription since the first
of the year, but there Is still some
thing like #200 to raise before this debt
it entirely liquidated. Borne of those
who are oonoerned in organizing a
team say there will be no baseball here
this season unless this debt Is all paid
off and they can start In with a clean
sheet. They are not going to play with
a debt hanging over them as they did
last season. Let us get busy and raise
this money to that the boys pan organ
ise and begin training for the edkson.
Tfyt Sanford basketball team Seem to
have to lost lie- rabbit foot. In the

score stood 10 to 6 In favor of Hanford,
but the Benson teaq got In Us best
' work In the last half of the. game. Af

the lights went out, the game did not
begin till II o’clock and whs finished
after midnight. Superintendent Teague
acoompaled the team to Bmlthfiold.
The defeat Friday night eliminates our
~ boyrfrom the final contests which will
be placed at Chapel Hill this wsek,

HISTORY TOE OLD PLANK ROAD
Built More Then Half Century Ago Through
Thu Section.
Relating the story of the constrnc'
tionofthe Old Plank road, which
was built more than'a half century
ago between Fayetteville and Salem
and which played an important part
in the early history of this section,
Miss Martha Hamilton, of High
Point, who last June graduated
from the-High Point high school,
has written an interesting essay,
which has just been released for
publication, says the Enterprise.
Before writing her story Miss
Hamilton has interviewed several
of High Point’s oldest citizens who
knew something of the history of
the road. She approached the older
inhabitants with the view of obtain,
ing information to be used in con
nection with her essay. Three local
men complied with the young lady's
request and secured for her the
needed data. Miss Hamilton’s es
■say follows:
’’The biggest undertaking in
North Carolina about the year 1848
or 1850 was the construction of a
plank road between Fayetteville and
Salem.
“The road near Fayetteville was
built out of pine and gave out be
fore the entire road was completed.
“The laborers worked for about
50 cents a day and boarded them
selves. But they enjoyed life then.
They had some good fiddlers, violin
ists were not known. They had
some good times in their camps.
“After the ground for the road
had been cleared the stringers were
laid down in zigzag fashion, so that
the ends were uneven. This was
done in order to help the loaded
wagons to get back on the planks.
The story is told of a preacher, who
on leaving the plank road to go into
camp ground, mixed in the mud.
His four horses would not pull him
out. Some of the men standing by
told him to “cuss’’ them. He told
them he did not know what to say
and one of the men said ‘h—and
twelve,’so the preacher said ‘h—
and thirjeen.’ The horses pulled
him out.
“The stringers were about 10
feet long, four inches wide and
three inches thick. The planks
were about 12 feet long, eight inches
wide and three inches thick. The
planks/were laid on the stringers,
and the exposed ends of the string
ers were covered &oq each side with
dirt.
“Haulers going up hill were en
titled to all the iroad, but on level
ground each had to give half the
road. Along the road there were
places known as pay stations. They
were placed anywhere from.six to
eight miles apart, _ • »•••••/
“For a carriage and one horse
wagon a toll of three cents a mile
was charged and four horse wagons
five cents. One pay station was at
Unwn Qross, another at the carns^
ot Howell and Ham streets, where
the Lutheran church is being erect
ed and a third beyond Springfield.'
These pay stations were built out
over the road and the collectors and
their families lived in them. The
women were in charge of the toll
gates. |
“The meaf who drove the teams
on the road received $2 for a drive
of 100 miles, ''
“The people from Forsyth, Sur
ry, Stokes, Wilks, Davie and Y ad
kin counties hauled their products
to Fayetteville, which was the near
est shipping point. There they
bought their supplies. All wagons
passed through High Point, which
at that time was only a small vil
lage.
“It is Baid that having the plank
road come through here caused the
railroad company to contract a rail
road through High Point. The ori
ginal survey took the road about 10
miles south of the city, coming by
High Point, was about five miles
further. Governor Morehead, who
was then governor of North Caro
lina, succeeded, with the aid of citi
zens, in getting the t railroad con
structed through Greensboro and
High Point, After completion of
the railroad, wagons from western
counties stepped here instead of
going to Fayetteville, thus bringing
trade here. From that time High
Point began to steadily grow.
“The plank road had ibeen built
only a period of eight or ten years
when the railroad was constructed,
resulting in a financial loss to the
stockholders and ruin to much
timber,’’
