Citizens Meet
The extension of Main Street
across the railroad and the fields
of Mr. Wheeler Martin and Meas.
Anderson Bros, has created such
a feeling of joy and pride in the
people of Williamston that the
spirit of progress seemed to be in
the very air itself. The citizens
were called together in the court
house Tuesday night where they
held a jollification meeting to con
gratulate themselves on the genu
ine satisfaction of the day road
to Skewarkee, the extension of
Main Street and put on foot other
movements for extending the day
roads on the road leading to Ham
ilton and J amesville. Mr. W. C.
Manning was elected as manager
of the present road building at the
end of Main Street, Dr. Biggs as
a committee of one to secure aid
for improving the road toward
Hamilton, Mr. N. T. Rid dick on
the road toward lamesville and
Mr. N. S. Peel for soliciting aid
and devising means for improving
Leggetts bridge aAd road.
The ro§d question bdng fully
discussed the meeting turned its
attention to electric plant for light
ing and an artesian well. After
several speeches on these subjects
the feeling of the meeting was tak
en and only one vote out of forty
present was cast against the lights
and wells and this was not really
against them but did not vote in
favor of them.
The meeting was organized with
Mr. N. S Peel as chairman and
Mr. Burrass A. Critcher as secre
tary. Mr. S. J. Everett was elec
ted to circulate a petition among
the citizens of Williamston to get
its sentiment as to electric lights
and the artesian wells. He was
also instructed to correspond
with contractors for putting in
electric light plant and also artes
artesian wells.
The spirit of the meeting was
road progress, we have had an ex
periment and it has surpassed our
fondest hope, and the people de
mand that the work continue. There
was not a discordant vote or senti
ment on the road subject, the sen
timent of the meeting being taken
at every point that every one if he
had any opposition or suggestion
to make he had an opportunity.
Mr. Wheeler Martin the town's
best friend and advocate of prog
ress was highly elated with the
sentiment of the meeting as was
every other man who has the prog
ress of the town at heart. The
spirit of the town is progress and
the sentiment of the whole town is
in harmony with such music. It
is the spirit that makes any town
or community. Towns and com
munities are made by the people
and the people are made by the
spirit that animates their actions.
This town with such a spirit must
move foward. V -
