CAROLINA TELE
PHONE COMPANY
ERECTS STATION
The Carolina Telephone and Tele
graph Company has started construc
tion upon a modern home for its
Lillineton plant. The station will
be of brick and one story in height.
A modern automatic switchboard
will be installed which will give in-
s'tant service to patrons, thus lm-
f proving long distance usage as well
' jas local.
Manager Boyd of Fayetteville was
here Monday, in the interest of his
company. He says the couipany has
had the local situation in hand for
some time, the actual beginning of
work on the station beiug delayed
on account of inability to get mate
rials. The work now, lie says, will
be pushed rapidly and Lillington will
soon have a telephone station as
thoroughly modern as is possible for
any town.
Manager Boyd says applicants for
phones will not be denied much long
er, as his company now his every
assurance of being abie to install
every facility hnrp ' for whi?L there
is a demand. He says further that
lone distance service will be im
proved one hundred per cent by the
new installation. The present equip
ment, which is antiquated and in
efficient, will be discaicled altogeth
er. Mr. Boyd says the new service
will be started just as soon as the
new plant is corapltted, and that will
be as toon as the work on the new
'jtilding can be f.:i'il:e! and nquip-
incnt installed.
LILLIXGTON HIGH SCHOOL
RESUMES YEAR'S WORK
The. Lillingtou schools resumed
work Tuesday moining with a very
full attendance. Sju.v few dropped
cut, but more new ones camt- in
sixteen in all. N itwitlistanding some
new seats were purchased in the fall
it looks now as though more would
be needed.
Because of the low prices of farm
products a few of the dormitory pu
"plls'tdi'i not return," but some others
came.
Among the new pupils in tho high
tA-nool is Miss Helen Draper, s'ter
o' Miss Draper, the high school prin
cipal. One of the most urgent needs at
the dormitories and the schovd build
ing is water. The board went to a
great deal of. expense puttin ; in a
system of closets which cannot be
used for want of water. What :s tin
matter with the tovn, we wonder,
that as cheap a thing as water is,
enough cannot or is not furnished?
The health of every child that at
tlends schcol and all who live near
here is endangered by lack of water
supply..
Tuesday morning we had .o
lights at all except a few lamps that
could be used. Who will tell as
what is the matter with the present
lighting system? We cannot work
in darkness, and do not want to go
back to the old eye-killing lamp sys
tem; but light we must have. It
seems to us that the best thing Lil
lington can do is to own its own
light and water plant and not be de
pendent on any irresponsible com
; pany.

TO HOLD IMPORTANT MEET.
mO JANUARY 12 AND 13 IN
CAPITAL CITY.
Raleigh. Secretary of Agriculture
Meredith .former Governor Richard I.
Manning of South Carolina, head of
the cotton export corporation move
ment, and Aaron Sapiro of California,
expert in co-operative marketing, are
expected to address and confer with
the cotton and tobacco growers of
this State at their meetings to be held
in Raleigh on January 12 and 13.
The North Carolina Tobacco Grow
ers Association meets Wednesday,
January 12, and the North Carolina di
vision of the American Cotton Asso
ciation on Thursday, the 13th. While
these are separate and distinct organ
izations they have a great deal in
common. Both are working toward
the same end that proper and the
most efficient marketing facilities
may be provided for the principal
agricultural products of North Caro
lina. In addition to the farmer dele
gates and all cotton and tobacco
growers of the State, regardless of af
filiation with these organizations, are
invited to attend the mass meetings
the banking and commercial Interests
are expected to be largely represented.
What is done at the Raleigh meeting
will doubtless have far-reaching effect
upon the economic life of the State.
Plans are to be laid for the future
guidance of the hundreds of thousands
of producers of the two chief products
of North Carolina's soil. -
The tobacco growers' meeting will
begin at 10 o'clock Wednesday morn
ing, January 12 both meetings to be
held in the City Auditorium with or
ganization for business, the (basis of
representation being one delegate for
every one hundred members in each
county. Words of welcome and of
greeting will be heard from the outgo
ing and the Incoming governors, to be
followed by a round table conference.
At the recent meeting held In Rich
mond certain recommendations were
made looking to the organisation In
North Carolina of a tobacco growers'
marketing association modelled some
what along he lines of the California
co-operative .organizations. Aaron Sa
piro, who is the attorney and the
guiding hand of foutreen of the most
successful of these, and who has been
retained as attorney for the organisa
tion committee of the Interstate
bacco Growers Association, will
plain In detail the proposed plan s
cperation.
The meeting Thursday of the cot
ton growers wHl be, in point of fact,
the annual convention of the North
Carolina division of the American
Cotton Association. It will open with
a word ot welcome from Governor
Morrison. The recommendations of
the Southern Cotton Conference, held'
in Memphis, December 7 and I, hav
ing to do -with such important mat
ters as reduction of acreage, credits
and advances, diversifications and
warehousing and classification of cot
ton, will be considered.
The principal matter of business,
however, will be the working out of
plans to better facilitate the market
ing of the staple! The co-operative
plan will be considered In all its
phases. Mr. Sapiro will address the
cotton growers Thursday morning.
Cotton Export Corporation.
At the morning session on Thurs
day, the 13th, former Governor Rich
ard I. Manning of South Carolina will
address the convention, explaining the
plan of operation of the so-called cot
ton export corporation movement.
which Is the outgrowth of the Ameri
can Cotton Association, and tall of
the progress that .has been made.
Governor Manning, himself a farmer,
is president of the American Products
Export at Import Corporation, which.
organised in South Carolina in the
fall, is already a going concern, with
more than $2,000,000 of its capital
stock subscribed in that State alone
The export of cotton to reopen the
markets of Europe to the 9outh's sta-
HU already togun. although the
movement is still less than three
months old. The flrt shipment was
made from the port of Charleston Just
before Christmas
The cotton export corporation move
ment will be extended into North Car
olina, as throughout the cotton grow
ing South, and, although not Intend
ed to conflict In any way with any
strictly -co-operative marketing pro
gram Chat may be adopted, will be
launched, H Is hoped, at the fRalelgh
meeting as among the activities of the
American Cotton Association in this
State. Already there is much interest
felt throughout North Carolina, among
farmers,' bankers and business men, in
the movement which has made such
wonderful headway,
Secretary of Agriculture Meredith
has been invited to close the two-day
meeting with an address on Thursday
H- ,g a foretal and
.,. . m9i8are to deliver. The
- 1 knowledge they possess along lines
bearing directly upon the prebismt
the cotton and tobacco growers now
face and In the hope that they tan
be able to give some practical advice
and suggestions toward the solutions
of these problems, rather than by

RALEIGH LETTER
(Special Correspondence.)
(By Maxwell Gorman.)
Raleigh, Jan. 3. With Speaker
Grier of Iredell and Lieut. Governor
Gardner (for one week) presiding
over the two branches of the General
Assembly, that body will convene
here Wednesday of this week for a
session that in some points will be a
most interesting and remarkable one.
The inauguration of the new gover
nor and the swearins in for the new
term of the reelected and other state
officers will take place one week la
ter, it has now been, determined, al
though it had been reported that
Governor Morrison would wait till
the 19th in order to give plenty of
time tc the measure to increase the
salaries of tne state executive on
cers before the new 'term begins.
It now develops that although
some opposition has been aroused to
the measure it will either be passed
or defeated in the first few days of
the session.
The inauguration address will be
separate from the Governor's mes
sage to the Legislature, and the cere
monies will be marked for their sim
plicity for the overturn in the office
of Governor carries with it a differ
ence in the characteristics of the per
sonalities of the outgoing and th
incoming executives.
Governor Bickett has been partial
to display and the spectacular, wblla
Governor Morrison is a "plain man"
with a strong personality that does
not invite the guady and who prom
ises to be the most democratic of all
the Covernors in many years. It is
to be hoped that he will be able by
his example to retain that atmos
phere around the executive offices
after some of his subordinates have
thrown the ego of their presence suf-
ficlent.lv into tha tafoa nf all wtin will
behold and see it out in its ,nItlal
" i
stage.
There will be much of interest to
write about from Raleigh the next
two months, and the readers of these
Raleigh Letters will be amused as
well as astounded by some of the
things I Intend to tell them about.
One of the hottest games -of-t he ses
sion will be the redisricting of the
state to nrovide for two additional
districts. There are several vaulting
ambitions that are already starting
their machine to elect the two "at
large," instead of by adding two new
districts. That will be the greatest
obstacle the redisricting forces will
have to contend with the individual
aspirations of several men who think
their nersonal advantage should taV
precedence -and result in a hot pri
mary (if that thing survives the
present legislature).
