Address a!l Communications to THE ENTRRPKISE, Wllllamston, N. C. ' Friday, March 14, Ic> 1 s Don't forget the Peanut Factory and the prospestive coming cf the Seaboard Air Lire Railroad. These two would tuear. much to Martin County nnd it* farmers. This county has for n number or years been in ihe Fourth Judicial District. With the change in the arrangement cf the Districts with additio jml cnes, making twenty in all, Martin County is placed in th; Second District with counties of Washington, Edgecombe, Nash and Wilson. New York, it is said, is iu need of eflicicnt police. Ever heard *==juiything like that before? Sounds familiar. The,e must be other places in the same box The work of the Legislature has as a whole been «ood, but the fail ure to en ict 1 Primary 'aw is so stupendous that it over-shadow* other things done. It is rather strange tliat ri ?ct of men who art pledged to the go >ti of the whole should to sadly neglect matters so grave, Whcu some mett cease to fool the pco;.'le into thinking thr.t they are the proper mt-n to he suit to make laws at Raleigh, I'ren the State may get rc-1 cf from the bane of the open convention. With the-c men out more &cou ■ hole some legislation might be put into force. It Is Coming Assurance oi sue.ens ;n tlie cam paign to laiw fund* for the build- > ing of ft peanut -) laut, ai 1 * being had e-verv day * Some of the town-1 ships have reported sp!em!iu success! and enthusiasm The shares of! ♦ stock iu th; ptoposeci capital on $25,00® u;e being v.idely distribut ed iiinon'g the people. It is fht purpose to give each farmer an op portunity toco operate in the move ment. No large bunch ot shares will be taken-by nuy individual as I this would frustrate the plan ot co operation in which every man who will i:> given ju equal chance to buy stuck. The ouileok is Cue now, and soon the committees *ill tepott 1 the whole £>lllll subscribed Sevetal Martin County mm. who ore liv ing elsewhere, have a>l:cl tor the privilege of buying stock. Theyi recognize the value of the move ment and desire to help the hc;me| county. * A charter for the extension of the S. A. L. R. R», will he secured as early as practicable, and pros pects tor the road are good. This will, mean more business, better rates and a general treud toward the advancement of the people of Martin County. But we must uot stop iu our work for the factory aud this road. Keep moving. "All's Quiet Along The Potomac" Gov. Locke Craig's announce ment that tbe inauguration of Woodrow Wilson was more like an ordination, doesi.not sound strange to those who have ssudied the President autj the conditions con fronting him. He has dedicated himself to the people and to the people's interest, and tliongh the conditions are not so bed, yet the affairs of uiuety-six millionth of Americans are stupendous. Then the shaping of things by Democra tic rules after sixteen years ot con tinuous Republican administration, is the work of a man, and none but a man cau steer the Ship of State ~1. M■ - . - , m into safe watefs. The first ten daja of the new ad ministration have passed, and both the President and his co-woskers ate busily engaged in adjusting matters recording to the principles Which won out in the greatest po'i-j tical campaign in the history ot the j country. President Wilson is a woekeT— and no other kind of mat, j hu ever accomplished r>n* thing ' worth while in or out 01 the Exe j cutive tffice. That effiee is coj place for bluster or posiug —:he t \o previous adurhtMrattons have sick ened tbe people on both. The Mexican situation is, p i haps, the gravest that the uew ad rnin ir.trat ion will have ?o confront. The temper of the Mexicans will determine the action of our officials , Secretary ot State Bryan, the soundness of wbo'-e views on if ter nationa' questions a;c mo?'• »>:id all over the world, wi.l with .be President handle the situation in the proper way. They car. be trusted not to heed the great ciy of the European papers for interven tion. The people of Europe fail lu take the doss tbev are offerir.fi for, the consideration of the United; £taree «■ ■ ——— One task that new adminis tration will have, is the great crowd , of office seekers who have to I efj satisfied. It is natural aud just that I the Democrats should have a part in the aiTatrs of a Democratic gov j ernment. Sympaihetic wcikt-r, j can best conduct the affairs of t'.:e ce untry to the betterment ofr-wlrc.ijj the party stands pledged. It is not j a policy of "turn the rascals c>ut,"j as the cry is, but letting the cava j ble men of a great party come into; 1 toeir oku. That there a:e many wlo would! thrort' the burden heavy upon the: fhou'ders of the Deroof ratiu j?resi J dent just because their oa n 1 arti-j culai burine** will not fostered by the govtr j.ruei.t, is .i j ready apparent*-, but the unbound-1 ed 11 u->t »t the masses will hnvr greater weight and the prosperity ( of the cc-tiutrv shall gro* «ud grow I iiuio tbs tac. ,J| fi light tliut eyety ei;i/.j whatever his party aftiiiatioti.s be,-i give to the new order of thing- bis! heartv support. This is a won.ter* ful land with uivcrsifiec inteiests,! and honesty, industry and morality! make a great people 110 matter, what party is,at the heht., though the money trust rather have a Re publican administration. To thei common people has Woodrow Wil son pledged himself atul not to the money kings of the enrtb. •The pemocratic admiuisttation will noti please the trustf, and it it did* it; would betray the confidence of the' I masses All hail to the lowers that be, and good luck to >Oll.
