We GO FORWARD.
Another Big Enterprise Organized For
dOIdSbOro. Authorized Capt.
tai S25O,OOO.

One Of the things that the ARGUS
has p~ersistently advocated for Colds
bOro IS a knitting nilI-and q knit
ting mill is, at length, to material
lze, and on q scale commensurate
with the inviting field that Colds
boro affords, not only 0 Z a knitting
mill, but for all kinds Of manufac-
turing enterprises-and without linn
it, either as to capacity or number;
for GOldsboro's railroad advantages
are unsurpassed, and her shipping
facilities, both interstate and to the
sea, are peerless; therefore it is that
the ARGUS hopes for a Greater
Goldsboro and abides in the faith
that we've got the Best Town in the
State.
The G%oldsboro Knitting Mill Com
pany was organized last night, with
an authorized capital of $3.50, 900 and
a subscribed capital of $25, 700, and
the following directors were duly
elected: Messrs. N. O'Berry, Geo. G.
Royal, w. T. Yelverton, F. K.
Borden, Jos. Rosenthal, M. j. Best,
A. L.. Bassett, L. n. Grant, and
Geo. A. Norwood, Jr.
AS soon as a charter is secured the
directors will meet and elect officers
and institute the building and equip
ment of a mill.
Success to the Goldsboro Knitting
Mill-and the men who are foster
ing the enterprise are the synonym
of success.
We go forward.
