Taking Up Progressive Work.
Raleigh Post.

Raleigh Post.
1t is a matter of general State in
terest that the management of the
Atlantic and North Carolina railroad
has established a land and industrial
department. Mr.. Fred L. Merritt has
been appointed agent OF the new de-
partment with office at Goldsboro.
We are informed that this indicates
no change in Mr.. Merritt's present
work-that of secretary to the presi-
dent of the company-but simply
means that he is taking on addition
al duties, for which he possesses ad-
mirable qualifications.
The establishment of land and in
dustrial department by the Atlantic
and North Carolina roailroad COM
pany is in keeping with the policy of
other progressive railroads, and
means organized and persistent eff
fort for the development of the Sec
ton OF the State through which the
road runs. A good class of immigra-
ton to settle it's lands, and outside
capital to help develop its resources
are North Cardinals greatest needs.
To the work OF securing these the
present management of the Atlantic
and North Carolina Company is pre-
pairing to devote special attention.
In this work the company expects,
and no doubt will receive, the active
assistance of the people living along
the line of its observation-disclosures, cor
porations, boards of trade and the
like-and of the newspapers of the
State.
The industrial world is each year
coming to a keener apprehension of
the advantages of the South as an
industrial center. At so opportune
a moment little hustle and cooper
alton on the part OF our people can
accomplish much in promoting the
work of development. With organ
lied effort and persistent advertising,
not only the tide of immigration, but
capital seeking OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
can be turned in this direction.
