Committee To 'Attand Bear
ing
At the hearing before the
Corporation Commission in Ral
eigh Wednesday the BMtotard
representatives pteifaM their
evidence and Loolil^aiw .repre
sentatives were given uMll June
and, to make answer. The case
wUl be taken np again at 10
o'clock Tneedajr morning, Jane
2nd.
The trend of public oplulon was
\ery strongly against the Seaboard
Air Lin* Railway's proposition to dis
continue train service on the Louis
burg railroad, in a mass meeting
held at the court house on Monday
night, when around four hundred
citizens gathered to formulate and
adopt resolutions of protest to be
presented to tbe Corporation Commis
sion on Wednesday morning by a
committee composed of Messrs. W. H.
Yarborough, Hill Tarborough, F. H.
Allen. B. H, Malone.
The meeting was called to order by
President F. J.' Beusley, of the Louls
Lmrg Chamber of Commerce, and the
object of the meeting was explained
by Mr. Hill Yarborough.
Mr. JeSress, of the Colonial Pine
Co., Mr. G." H. Cooper, and'Mr. Clyde
Burgess, of the Burgees Lumber Co.,
told of the inconrenience and unde
Mrability of the change as- it affected
the "lumber industry, giving statis
tics sufficient to show that the busi
ness of this industry is sufficient to
justify their protest.
Mr. Furgurson, of the Loulsborg
Grocery Co., explained the delay it
would cause in the wholesale trade
und Mr. J. 8. Howell made clear the
impossibility of the conduct of the big
fertiliser busUess under the suggest
ed plan. ? ,
Mr. A' W. Person stated it would
r ot effect the cotton situation much
as at present cotton was shipped by
truck for 40 cents a bale as compared
to $1.25, but that he understood these
-aterf were going to be harmonized,
which if they were he much preferred
shipping by train and the proposed
schedule would be very unsatisfactory
to Mb.
Mr. E. H. Malone told of the outside
influence on Loulsburg, when people
would speak of It as a one train town
with no passenger service and em
phasized the inadequacy of the pro
posed arrangements.
It was VirftltM 'out that it would
seriously cripple the handling of the
tobacco shipments which most al
ways move in the evening.
Fully two hundred citizens pledg
ed themselves to attend the hearing
In Raleigh on Wednesday.
Many others discussed the proposed
changes from various angles and the.
following resolutions were adopted:
"Whereas, the Seaboard Air Line
Railway Co., has petitioned the North
Carolina Corporation Commission for
permission to iurtail the train ser
vice between Franklinton and Louis
burg; and, whereas, the proposed
curtailment will seriously inconvtui
nnce the Industrial Interest of Louie
burg, as well as the general public,
and in the opinion of this body will
work an unreasonable and great
hardship upon the Town and sur
rounding territory:
"Now, therefore, be it resolved that,
we do earnestly and respectfully re
quest the Corporation Commission fa
decline to psrmlt such curtailment of
train service. "
"Be it further re?ol*ed that, be
lieving as we do tjiit the Town of
Loulsburg is entitled to better ser
vice than It has heretofore received
from the Sesi^rfl.Al'" Line Railway
Co., we do earnestly and respectfully
request that as soon as conditions
permit, the said Service be lmprbved
and rendered more adequate for the
interest of the Town than during tha
last several years."
Class of '29 Re-union
The class of MM of Loulsburg Col
lege will hold It's first re-unlcm At
the College May 2Srd and 24th. The
members of this class plan to attend
the Anumnae Banquet In a body.
Fach one feel* that she can sympa
thise with the present students of
lxmlsburg, tor she experienced days
nf "fear and trembling' also. These
were the girls who, for days after the
I disastrous lire crowded Into village
post offices hoping ta/t mall whldh
would bring soms word from their be
loved President, A. W. Mohn jut to
whether or not the school would con
tinue In operation. 80 wKh a heart
full of lore and hope for the existence
of their Alma Mater, they return to

loyalty to the Institution which Is so
dear to them.
