nifty. This newspaper is strong and
popular throughout eight or ten of the
surrounding counties. His paper has
since its foundation been in full ac-
cord with the industrial development
of the State, and a strong advocate of
temperance. During the prohibition
movement in Elizabeth City last year,
the Tar Heel led the fight for temper

credit was given by the advocates for
prohibition.
