OUR INDUSTRIAL EDITION

We think we may be excused for ex'
pressing feeling Of pride in presenting
to the people of Durham the most pre-
tentious paper ever printed in this city.
II is twenty.eight page story that tells
of Durham and its great industrial enter,
prises. There has been no effort at liter.
airy perfection, neither has there been
any attempt to exagerate the possibilities
and importance OF Durham as an educs-
tional, industrial and manufacturing
centre.
A glance through these twenty eight
pages will be revelation to many read
ers who are so familiar with the city's
greatness that they lose sight of the indi.
vidusl firms which play SO important a
part in our general makeup. They will
serve to impress outsiders with the fact
that Durham Is entitled to the credit of
being recognized as one of the most pro-
gressive cities In the South, that she has
the men, the brains, the mechanical skill,
the capacity, the capital and the energy
to forge her way to the head of the class
composed of young and aspiring South
ern cities.
These pages show what We have &C.
complished as a community; what we are
doing and what we can do still further.
The work Of the city is not yet com
pleted. We must keep on until we have
a population double and triple that Of
today, and until every mill and every
factory and every work shop has been at
least duplicated.
1t is not for us to pass judgment upon
this Industrial Edition. We leave that TO
our friends, believing that our Efforts to
tell the world what manner of city we
have will be appreciated as well by the
readers as it has been encouraged by our
liberal advertisers.
The Durham recorder. [volume] (Durham, N.C.) 1879-19??, 1900-04-16
OUR PRESENT PROSPERITY.

Few cities today :epjoy a create T
amount Of prosperity 10 every depart.
ment of trade aud industrial epdeavor
than Durham.
Our merchants find themselves period
fcsIIy compelled TO enlarge their premises
and force. Our manufacturers must add
from time to time to their buildings and
machinery, as the increased demand calls
for larger output; they must hire more
men, and must buy more raw material
for their productions.
Our professional men find daily, q
greater field Of work, attending an ever
increasing population; the artisan finds
8 steady increasing demand for his ser
vices, and is thus enabled to work regu-
larry, and build himself and family q
substantial home.
Durham Is fast attaining that standard
by which other cities will be measured.

fidence and esteem of the people

Such a house, conducted as it
is, is not only a source of profit
to its proprietor, but is also q
prolific source of honor and
credit to the general business

sentative in furthering the ad-
vancement Of Durham's best in
