Something like ten years or so ago, the
farmers in the country around Wilson be-
gan to experiment in growing the bright
tobacco that had made Granville IA
nous. They made tobacco just as good
as ever made in Brassfields. Granville
county, and it paid so much better than
cotton that it rapidly became the lead
ing money crop of the farmers. The
business men Of Wilson, seeing that to-
bacco meant a new life for their town,
organized company to promote the in
dustry. They employed expert tobacco
men, gave seed to the farmers, and sent
experienced men through the adjacent
country to teach the farmers how to
grow and cure the yellow weed. The
farmers, an intelligent class of men,
soon became expert growers and cu-ers
and almost at the very start they made
such large crops as to make Wilson go
to the front as a bright tobacco market.
They have continued until the Wilson
tobacco market is easily the first in the
State, and the second largest in the
world.
In 1891 Wilson had one warehouse and
sold one and a half million pounds Of
tobacco; the next year, 1892. another
warehouse was erected and over two
million pounds were sold; the next, 1899,
over three million pounds were sold; the
next year, 1894, another warehouse was
built and more than three and half
million pounds were sold; the next year,
1895, nearly four million pounds; the
next year. 1896. another warehouse was
ht1ilt IA
pounds were sold.
In 1899 the sales of tobacco in Wilson
had reached 100000 pounds. In 1890
came the noted short crop and even that
year Wilson sold IS, 250000 pounds.
But Wilson was not content TO merely
raise and sell tobacco. Having invested
s10O,006 in tobacco warehouses in the
town and large sums in tobacco barns
in the county, it determined to do more,
and so it put in many large prize houses,
stenmeries, and factories. including the
big Wells Whitehead cigarette factory.
1t has gone head in the tobacco bust
ness in Eastern North Carolina and it is
determined to stay head.
POPULATION DOUBLED.
The population of Wilson has doubled
since the tobacco industry became large
and it is growing rapidly. The increase
is of the best population, too. composed
almost entirely of those attracted by fine
business opportunities or the excellent
educational advantages.

MACY.

STRONG AND USEFUL BANKS

No influence has contributed more to
Wilson'S industrial and commercial
progress than It's two strong banking in
stitutions-the First National Bank and
the Branch Banking Company. They are

servatively managed and are in close

and it became the county seat, it drew
inhabitants chiefly because of its ex-
cellent schools. It's early settlers We're

no land anywhere that grows the pecu-
liarly fine tobacco for making cigarettes
so good as the section of which the town
of Wilson is the centre.
When Wilson went up head" as q
leaf tobacco market some of it's enter
prising business men determined to COM
mence the manufacture of cigarettes.
Afraid of the trust? Wilson business
men are not built that way. In 1900
they organized the WellsW Whitehead
Tobacco Company, ordered modern
plant and began the manufacture Of
Carolina Brights in large and colnmo-
dious brick building, admirably adapted
for the purpose. 1t is Differed by men
who have habit of succeeding in what
ever they undertake-men of business
sagacity and nerve. Mr.. f. G. Briggs
is president; Thcs. 3. Scott, of rich
mopd, Va, president, and S. {.
Wells, secretary and treasurer-three
men whose names mean SUCCESS. They
have ample capital.
They began operations with ca
pacity of one hundred and fifty thousand
cigarettes per day and employed thirty
five persons in the factory. Today their
plant has a capacity of seven hun
dred thousand per day and employ
ment is given TO 125 employees in the
factory and sometime this number is in
cree sed to $50 TO keep up with the grow
ing demand for the popular Carolina
Brights. The product of the factory is
sold ahead all the time.
The Wells Whitehead Company is an
independent company, having no connec-
ton with any trust or combination. 1t
sells its Carolina Brights on their merits
ard every day the demand for their
popular cigarette increases.
THREE FINE HOTELS.
Wilson has three of the best hotels in
North Carolina and they are all doing

business men. The Briggs House, long

new hands. has been enlarged, renovated
and improved No town of it's size in
! the State has such excellent hotels.
MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
Wilson has set the pace for municipal
ownership of public utilities. 1t owns
| it's waterWorks and electric light, and
supplies it's citizens with water
and light at cost, giving these
necessities at much cheaper
! price than they are furnished

leading business man in Wilson. The

MANUFACTURING ESTABLISH

Wilson is blessed with a number of
successful manufacturing establish
ments, among the leading ones being
Hackney Brothers carriage factory, the
Wilson Cotton Mills, brick yard, bot
Ting works, casket manufacturing,
cigar factory, three seed cotton mills,
four machine shops, two mattress fac
tories. three sash and blind factories
and others.
TELEPHONE EXCHANGE.
Wilson has splendid telephone sys-
tenn which is under the direct charge of
Mr.. Howard f. Jones, one of the of
fcials of the East Carolina Telephone
Company. This organization has an ex-
tensive connection and it's lines ramify
all sections of Eastern Carolina, giving
a service that is winning for it the high
est praise and the best of patronage
The Wilson system is modern, the
switchboard and all the equipment being
strictly first class. Mr.. Jones is an ex-
pert in the business and his personal at
tention is worth much to the company.
FITS corps of assistants in the Wilson Of
fee render a most acceptable service to
its large patronage.

RELIGIOUS INFLUENCES.

Wilson has more churches. too. repre-
senting more denominations than any
town in Eastern North Carolina. The
Disciples recently built a very hand

Mr.. H. A. Cook, of the Fort Dodge
Post, gives democracy some sage ad-
vice, as follows:
A democratic paper sums up the
situation thus: ''Wait for the republi-
cans to quarrel among themselves.
Has our contemporary forgotten the
old adage about the cat tight-a re-
publican quarrel simply means more
republicans The Post suggests that
no waiting be done at all; simply agree
to fight the republican party and its
policies, and stop fighting one another.
More than this, throw all fighters who
think more of their own opinions than
they do of party success into outer
dar kness, and victory can be assured.
The last portion of this paragraph is
particularly touching as coming from
one who has in former times felt the
effects of his own advice and who was
thrown into 'outer darkness most
precipitately and vehemently. Pro
badly Mr.. Cooks idea of party har-
mony is now to return the compliment
and kick out those who kicked him
out in the days that are past.
