THE ENTERPRISE
AN INTERVIEW WITH
TEMPORARY MAYOR
f"l dislike to talk about myself,"'
sad Mayor S. Rome Biggs this morn
ing, to a representative of the Enter
prise, but after some coaxing, the new
head of oar city government, with a
twinkle in his eye, briefly'touched on
the past years of his life leaving
college; how as a shop apprentice and
later as a master mechanic, lie toured
the far west, roamed up and down the
Pacific slope, learned to talk Spanir.li
along the Rio Grande, and picked up
the Bowery slang in the shauow of
th etjas House district of New' York.
"But after all," said the mayor, "1
pined for boyhood friends and recol
lections, and eventually found myself
steering a course for the marshes of
old North fiirnlina i *
When asked eGout politics, Mr.
Biggs told me in a quiet voice that
he had always wanted to be a mayor,
but had never fully decided on Wil
liamston until the opportunity of hold
ing this honorable office was thrust
upon him., "1 have put public office
and politics as a side line to my real
business," he continued, "but there is
in every wide-awake American citi
ten a desire to participate in local
government, and just recently I found
myself nominated and elected as one
of the town commissioner. Upon the
resignation this week of Dr. John I).
Biggs, Mayor, 1 consented to hold the
office temporarily, but of course I
cannot very well be mayor and town
commissioner both.
Mayor Biggs, then told us somewhat
In detail about the general condition
of the town of Williamston. We are
going to check up on this extravagant
spending of the town's money, and
every dollar has got to show at least
a dollar's worth of value received. We
are badly in debt, but we are not
going to give up—w eare going to pull
the old town out on high land again,
and at the same time, put it on the
Klap. A bunch of antiquated old flit
tr.ip shelters along the business set
tio not' Main street have got to come
down; the back lots have gipt to under
go a vast sanitary change ami a bunch
of old shacks removed. The sidewalk *
and principal streets of the town will
be paved regardless. No town with
out paved principal streets amount*
to anything, and we are determined
that Williamston shall profit by our
administration. Williamston will *>on
l>e the gateway of fciustem Carolina
and the tourists who pass throuf'
here ate certainly going to make fav
orable comments, if are put
through. Main street, WasKingtotr
Street, Smithwick ami Haughton
streets have got to be paved. We
have $26,000 of the town'* /loneyto
do this work with, and with property
owners paying $50,000 we can make
the property value* of Williamston
worth at least two hundred thousand
dollars mora. Every property owner
is in favor of this expenditure, unci
well he, may be, for it will be to hi?,
great advantage. This town needs
foreign money and new people, but
without mudern conveniences we aan
ruit hope to attract this class—how
ever, watch the new administration —
Improvement or Bust.
"1 am thinking," said his Honor,
"of having a big jubilee meeting on
July 4th, and aroumng some public
enthusiasm in this 'burg. People seem
to be on the verge of quitting. It is
the quitter who is beaten—one is
never whipped until he quits—undjktju
good people of Williamston with theiu
great natural advantages of making
a livlihood along with a life of hap
piness and longevity, Should not wait
for fortune to come their way, but
meet it. You might find it just a
round the corner—hftve you tried?
We are hoping our. New Mayor will
carry out his threat and call fer a
gaeat jubilee day on the fourth—hon
or us with one f/4 his rapid-flre
speeches and give the drones and com
plainers a rap over the solo, and instill
some fresh ambition and lffe intoi Wil
liam stonians.
All we need now is paved streets
to give Williamston a distinctive ap
pearance —and everybody! is for the
mayor and the board of commissioners
in their determination to carry out
this scheme of things—and may theii
names be indelibly written in local
history on the famous side of the page
for their public spirited effort# to give
to Williamston what the town must
have—a decent section of sidewalks
and streets.—Julius Peel.

care of. It will pay every farmer to
have a pasture, the need will be great
er next year than every be rt>re be

2. Plant pastures where ihey will
be uio-t easily acvOsiJble to tiie barn
yard.
3. The darker yell drained sails with
ciny .subsoils are l>est for pt-tuies.
/4. Use plenty of manure, uiU'ded
lainyard manure is to be prefferted.
See that manure is mixed with* up
per two inches of seed bed. Thorough
preparation practically insures suc
cess. ,j!
6. Inoculate the clover seed to
make sure success the first year.
Since Alsike, red, ami white clover

inoculation may be used for all, A*k
your "County Agent to assist you hi

the stock to be grazed.
11. If weeds appear above the
grasaes use the mowAg machine be
fore weeds go to seed.
12. Didn't put on too much stock.
Better cut for hay.
13. A permanent pasture is a.
splendid antidote for hay buying.

stock are pests.
10. itall sown pasture* are best.
Sow from September 16th, to Octo

WHY IT PAYS 10
GROW OWN HAY
On of the best loads of hay ever j
seen in Williamston was brought in
town Monday by Mr. Joseph I Holli
day of Bear Grass. This hay was
grown, cut, cured and baled by Mr.
tiolliday and it equaled any brought
from the West. This hay was sold to
J. L. Hassell and Company at about
the same price Western hay would
have cost.
One of the best features of the
transaction was the saving of heavy
freight charges and the sooner our
Southern people awake to the fket
that a very large part of the cost of
Western hay, grain, and meat is
freight paid the great railroad com
panies the better it will be for us.
The United States Bureau of Mar
kets report Number 1 Timpothy hay
at $19.00 per ton in Cincinnati and
the same hay $29.00 in New York
perhaps the freight rate is even high
er. The farmer who raises hay in
Ohio and hauls it to the railroad sta
tion for sale proably gets more than
$15.00 per ton for his best hay, the
a slice, the railroad gets
SIO.OO and by tho time the Martin'
County horse it. the division
seems to be as folows.
C rower 45 per cent.
Merchants and brokwers in a cash
deal 20 per cent.
Railroads 35 pej cent.
Now in Mr. Holliday's sale the
rail read gets nothing, the broker gets
nothing for he is excluded from the
-donl and it ynn itllnyy 5 per cent
brokerage charge added to the 36 per
cent freight charge then Mr. Holli
day gets 40 per cent more for his
crop than the Western farmer. The
South will never be rich and prosper
ous until we lear how to feed our
selves und our stock. The same rule
applies to hay, also applies to other
things we have to buy. The railroads
and middle men get at least half o
everything.
The Daniel and Staton mill pon.
seoms to have lured even a large
number of bathers this summer thaa
last. Th« convenience of having a h;
bouse, the safety and pleasure of
having a rope ucdOhs the pond und a
resting puviijen have no ooubt some
thing to do with It. All bathers are
charged, adults 15'centa ami children
