Greensboro. n. C.. Dec. 2s

Greensboro. n. u, IJec. 20.
To the Editor: The advancement
made by Greensboro along Industrial
and other lines during the past year Is
but a continuation Of the steady growth
of the past few years-a Developments
so conservative and vet so progressive
that it has been the means of attractln
much outside capital and greatly stlmu
lating our people in their efforts to make
the Gate City of North Carolina one Of
the most prosperous and thrifty IN the
Empire of the South
The beginning of the year found many
new enterprises under way, with feel
ing of confidence in the industrial future
of the city. The record of the past
twelve months fully justifies this conf
dence. While there has been no boom OF
undue excitement caused by reckless in
vestments and wild speculations, there
has all the time been a healthy and pros
porous condition of business along al
lines of industry. Our manufacturing
concerns, commercial establishments and
other business enterprises have done an
increased amount of business, and new
factories, mills, ETC., have been organized
and put into operation to add to the vol
ume of trade and give employment to
labor.
One Of the greatest strides forward
yet made by Greensboro was the prac
tically unanimous vote Of the taxpayers
last May authorizing the issuance OF
bonds to the amount of S30O,OOO foi
municipal improvements. Arrangements
are now being made for the expenditure
OF this money, and when the work i
completed the principal streets of Greens
boro win be macadamized, the sewerage
will be extended over the more populouS
part of the city, the water and light
will be owned by the municipality, and
we will have one of the finest marke1
houses and city halls combined in this
section of the South.
Early in the year the steel and iron
furnace erected here some eight or tel
years ago by the North State Improve
.ment Company, which failed with tn
C. Il. and Y. V. Railway, was purchased
and set into successful operation by the
Empire Steel and Iron Company. 1t is
now turning out about seventy tons OF
pig iron daily, consuming the produci

been trained here for the various duties
of business life, as book-keepers, ste
nographers, telegraph operators, or as
wide-awake well-equipped citizens in all
the honorable walks of life.

years. is now on in full force, and armed
bands are riding over the ranges of this
State, shooting the herds belonging to the
opposition. The sheep men claim the cat

when fifty sheep men and three cowboys
rode into bunch of sheep on the eatt e
range and deliberately shot each animal
TO death, then tied the sheep herfers to
their horses and forced them to leave the
country under pain of death.
Deliberate preparations had been made
for the attack, as the sheep men and their
cow puncheTs were armed with rifles and
carried sufficient ammunition to kill three
thousand sheep. The men surrounded the
sheep and from horseback shot them.
Some of the cow punchers. armed with
heavy Winchesters, knelt down and fired
into the herds. one bullet thus penetrating
and killing three or four sheep. The entire
herd was exterminated within an hour. In
retaliation sheep herders in all parts of the
surrounding range began shooting rowing

north and extending into Wyoming hun
