The Beaufort<lb />County Lumber Company own large<lb />bodies of timber lands on the south side<lb />of Tar river and lying in Pitt, Craven,<lb />Beaufort and Pamlico counties. To<lb />remove this timber they must have a<lb />railroad through their lands and make<lb />shippinz connection; with the outside<lb />world. With this end in view they<lb />have already made a survey from Bay-<lb />boro to Ayden, the latter point affording<lb />connection with the Atlantic Coast<lb />Line.<lb /><lb />Now this company owns land to with<lb />in 2 or 3 miles of Greenvile, and it has<lb />been intimated to us that if they could<lb />get the right of*way to this town they<lb />would make Greenville their terminal<lb />point instead of Ayden. The road<lb /><lb />necting point they will locate a large,<lb /><lb />and for several hundred men in their<lb />euploymeat.<lb /><lb />It can be seen at a glance<lb /><lb />if this company can be induced to bring<lb />their road here and make this their<lb />headquarters.<lb /><lb />other farm products and the immense<lb />trade that would be brought here from<lb />all this country south-east of us.<lb /><lb />that the business, men: of Greenville may:<lb />~see what is within, their reach if they<lb /><lb />.| with its attendant adva, | ~ages: can be<lb />brought: to Greenville, bat if are sit still,<lb /><lb />they build will be for general freight. | sa<lb />traffic as well as for carrying their tim-| %<lb />ber, and wherever thy make the con-4 3%<lb /><lb />mill and also make headquarters for ).%<lb />many of the offieers ot tlie company |;<lb /><lb />what Be}:<lb />great benefit it would be to Greenville}:<lb /><lb />Besides the immediate;| 3<lb />benefit from the company and its em-<lb />ployes, just think of the tobacco andj;<lb /><lb />The Reetector gives these points |;<lb /><lb />will just be up oand take hold of it,|q<lb />The matter is worth looking into, Wes},<lb />believe that by prompt action this. road E<lb /><lb />and do, nothing in the matter, it will gol%<lb />elaewhere.:: And. there «is, not:,, much. of<lb /><lb />At a Summer<lb />Resort © 9 e e<lb /><lb />we are offering.<lb /><lb />ate fe<lb /><lb />fellows.<lb /><lb />You will imagine you : are, when un-<lb />+ der the cooling influence of our<lb /><lb />Summer Suits, "<lb />Underwear, Shirts.<lb /><lb />Then there's a mint of satisfaction in<lb />the low prices and big values generally<lb /><lb />ssAipeqealpnpaanentahytreeenbibe inhi ert vt<lb /><lb />Conte and see. for<lb /><lb />yourself"old and young, big and little<lb />Sizes and kinds fot all.<lb /><lb />FRANA WIbSOY:<lb /><lb />THE.

Mr. Bai-<lb />leyTs boast is that Texas congressional<lb />districts are as big as New England<lb />states. He is the subject of a story and<lb />it would be wrong to tell who is the<lb />author of it, as Mr. Bailey is a hot-<lb />blooded man. The story is that when<lb />Mr. Bailey first entered public life in<lb />Texas he was comparatively unknown,<lb />He was anxious to forge to the front,<lb />however, and to make himself heard on<lb />every occasion. A large meeting was<lb />to be held in a neighboring town. Bai-<lb />ley went toiton herseback. He fell in<lb />with a traveler, and in the course of con-<lb />versation about speakers, remarked:<lb />oDid you ever hear of Bailey?� :The<lb />yokel replied that he had not. oWell,�<lb /><lb />| said Bailey, ohe is a good speaker, and is<lb /><lb />going to be there to-day. If you geta<lb />chance, yell for him and you will geta<lb />speech worth listening to.� The travel-<lb />er promised. The meeting came off, and<lb />several speakers were heard. Finally<lb />there was a Jull, and then some one in<lb />the audience began to yell: oB-a-i-l-e-y!<lb />B-a-i-l-e-y!� The master of ceremonies<lb />turned to Bailey and led him to the<lb />rostrum. Bailey started to speak, But<lb />the shouter continued to yell oB-a-i-<lb />l-e-y!� - Bailey stopped. The master of<lb />ceremonies said, genially: oIf our<lb />friend will keep still Mr. Bailey will<lb />continue his address. The gentleman<lb /><lb />, Speaking is Mr. Bailey.� The only re-<lb /><lb />ply to this was a how] of disgust from<lb />the man who had been makivg all the<lb />noise, and he blurted out: oWhy, thatTs<lb />the long-haired galoot that told me to<lb />holler for Bailey!""N.
