JElectric Power.
Surely brighter days are dawn- i
ing for the good old town of q
Statesville. We feel free to pre- £
diet that by this time next year, »
those who know us now will know «
us no longer. The electric pow- ,!
er, is in our minds, assured, and jj
nothing short of the Statesville u
Air Line can come near doing for f)
the town what this power will J
do. In our local columns are two Jj
enterprisf s that are depending on d
this power and there are many j (
more that will spring up like «
mushrooms. Cheap power is
what, it takes to maxe a town.
Coal and wood is advancing so \
rapidly that it *osts entirely too «
much to make power. The two ]
cotton mills of the town will save c
$2,500 each on their steam plant t
alone. Tha>t is pretty good divi- j
dend in itself, and the smaller j
plants will save more according- j
]y. A gentleman in Asheville is j
running his plant now by elee- '
! tricity for what it cost him to ]
hire a fireman for a fifteen horse 1
steam plant. That is the argu
ment that is touring the enter
prises to the city. The town will
save in the neighborhood of
$3,000 on her pumping and elec
tric stations. Let us al) push
Statesville to the front and soon
we will have, not only the best
town in the State, but one of the
largest. A gentleman remarked
on the train recently that the
Piedmont section was the best
section of the South, and that
this section was the most favor
ed. So "mote it be. We don't
want any kickers; what we want
is workers, and the town will
come.—Mascot
The farmer bends his knee to
none, and is less disturbed by
the worldwide reign of graft and
greed than any of his fellows.
May he live long and prosper—
this son of the soil, who is the
balance wheel of the universe.
If you have made up your mind
to live in a town, then stand up
for it, and if you know positively
no good, then silence is golden.
Do all you can to help along ev
ery man who is engaged in legit
imate business. Do not send
away for everything nice you
= want and still expect the home
j men to keep a stock to suit the
L j whim of one or two customers.
' The success of your fellow towns
i men will be your success. No
' man liveth to himself and no
• man does business independently
[ of his fellow business man.
