OUR GREAT NEED TODAY

One OF The greatest needs o. VII
ismsburg today is an earnest. active
business organization. The Gazette
has 50 long and frequently urged the
formation OF such az organization
that tits doubtless very stale reading.
But every day We are impressed 50
deeply with our needs that We can
not refrain from reveTting 70 1t from

A few years ago this paper.

half dozen men, succeeded in getting /
the first business organization the
city ever had. AS result of that
organization. the knitting mill was

might have secured one or several Of
them. had We gone after them.
Just now Williamsburg IS interest
co in the building OF a military road
between Jamestown and Yorktown.
An active Board O. Trade would
help materially in securing an sp-
preparation from Congress for that
purpose. Only this week a govern
ment engineer went over a part OF
the road and was deeply impressed
! with t. He said the rad ought 70
! be built A business organization
would set the matter clearly before
j Congress and push II 10 ultimate
success.
Then there are our agricultural il.

in a business way is in the develop

HID IN A CELLAR
Until the Irate Father of Girl
Disappeared-A Romance
Spoiled at HawesviIIe.

An irate father prevented what
threatened to be a pretty romance
Friday afternoon, when Hi Holmss,
If Patesville, followed his daughter
to town, who had come here with
her lover, Mr.. Ralph Young, with
the expressed intention of getting
married, says the Hawesville Clarion.
In some way the father had gotten
wind of the intended wedding and
elopement, and he followed in haste,
arriving in Hawesville only a few
moments after the couple reached
this point. In fact, the youngsters
had been here only so short a time
that they had not yet had time to- in
terview Clerk Lamar on the subject
Of license.
When Mr.. Holmes reached town
he soon located the young people at
Rosenblatts store, but in good time
Mr.. Young had already espied Mr.
Holmes. Probably with full
knowledge Of his wrath, and the be-
lief that something serious might re-
suit if they met, young Mr.. Young
asked some of the store employees If
there was a good back door way to
make get away" He escaped to
the cellar, and was even hunting the
door out, when informed that he
could be easily concealed down
there, where he was safely lodged
until the storm blew over Mr..
Holmes took his girl, who was under
the legal age for marrying on the
horse behind him and went home,
and the disappointed swain, in his
own good and safe time, emerged
slowly and safely, it is true, from his
retreat, and thus did
an irate father spoil a romantic we'd
ding.
Mr.. Young is the gentleman who,
about three years ago, cut and nearly
killed his Lrother-in-law, ODE Cor
ley, for which he was fined $50.

One Ct the various worthy bills
vetoed by Gov. Wilson was the one
prohibiting walters and poIters in
hotels and restaurants from accept
ing tips. His main reason for this
"a very silly one-was that the law
would not be enforced This rea-
son could be made TO apply TO al
most any bill. The practice If tip
ping is a nuisance. So far as good
service is concerned, it places the
guest almost at the mercy of the
servant But perhaps the fact that a
majority of negro walters and porters
are negroes had much to do with
the Governors decision.
