The Old Year opened in a blaze of almost limitless Activity and Prosperity, but closed with indus trial stagnation everywhere. What Promises The Year 1921? It would be exceedingly hazardous to formulate an iron-clad prophecy covering the course of events, FlNANClAL"6c INDUS TRIAL for the year 1 92 1 and we have no such intention. But a sort of individual stock-taking or inventory, should be helpful to us in the formulating of our plans for the present year. In the con templating of material losses, we are prone to forget that no epidemic is sweeping over our land carrying disease and death into thousands of homes, as we had last winter and two years ago. We are not confronted by famine because of shortage of food. Our barns areladen witrHfood foreman and feedstuffsforlivestockrWhy then, should we sit down and moan because our material prosperi ty has been temporarily halted? Our blessings outweigh, a thou sand times, our difficulties. The old year had its trials and difficul ties. Let us put them behind us. The new year brings us new problems to face. We shall have to build anew the prosperity we have lost, but FAINT-HEARTED MEN NEVER WON A VICTORY. We have gathered a wonderful harvest. Thinkof it 70,000 bales cotton grown in Robeson County, bread,, meat and ftedstuffs en ough and to spare.r Many people wiil say our crops are too large. Not so, let them remember that a BUMPER CROP IN HAND is a more tangible asset than what MAY BE produced this year. Herin lies our financial uplifting for the present year. Plant fifty per cent less cotton and tobacco, use sixty per cent less commercial fertiliz er, practice strictest economy in expenditures, do not plant more cotton than you can grow at a cost not exceeding ten cents per pound. Expressing our deepest appreciation of the spltendid patronage and confidence extended to us by our eleven hundred patrons during the past year, we beg to state tha.t our greatest pleasure will be to serve your banking interests again during the present year. We have the financial and business ab ility to render you a banking service to the limit that safe and sound banking principles will permit.

Radical re-alignment of the State senatorial districts which reduces the rumber of Republicans in the Senate from the present eleven to a probable five in the 1923 General Assembly is provided in the Neal bill, introdu ced in the House of the Legislature Wednesday, says a story in the News and Observer, which continues: Half a dozen districts that haveJ been sendinftjleDublican Senators are broken up and attached to strong Democratic counties adjacent. The heaviest blow to the minority falls in the Sampson county district, now composed of Sampson, Johnston, Harnett and Lee, where the normal Republican majority of 2,500 in Sampson has overcome the Demo cratic majorities in the other three counties, but by very small majorities. The majority in 1920 was 16 votes, and in 1918 only nine votes. Sampson is in a new district with New Han over, Harnett with Wake in a new district, Johnston with Wayne, and Lee with Chatham, etc. v Sampson District "Busted" Except in rockribbed Democratic or Republican districts, where there ap pears little likelihood of shifts that would materially affect the party rep resentation in the Senate, few dis tricts are left untouched, and the 1322 campaign will find many candidates appealing to voters across the county iine to whom they are entire stran gers. The bill went to the committee on Senatorial districts. Bitter opposition is expected from the minority membership in the House, and again when the ? bill comes to the Senate for concurrence. Ke presentative Cowles denounced the measure as an outrage, and declared that if their fight against it was lost in the- Legislature- it would be car ried to the Supreme Court for relief. Other minority members were equally bitter in their denunciation of the "robbery" that it is charged the meas ure perpetrates. Plan of New Slate Pollowine is the slate of Senatorial districts provided in the Neal bill: First District Camden, .Chowan, Currituck. Dare. Gates, Hertford. Pasquotank, Perquimans and Tyrrell, shall elect two Senators. ;, Second District Beaufort, Carter et," Hyde, Martin and Pamlico and Washington, shall elect two'tsenators.
