Guthrie Goes in StIong

Prevalence OF automobiles on the
streets OF Guthrie a. all hours OF the
day and evening is so marked that
strangers are inclined 10 believe
everybody has machine. The au-
tomobile boom in Guthrie is more
ralid in development than anything
in the history of the city, except the
development of the city itself from
the pioneer beginning, a little over
tweniy-one years ago.
Paving of nearly twenty miles OF
stress is the immediate cause OF the
ush to buy machines A year ago
there were only a few machines
not much over a dozen. Now there
are fifty licensed and regularly op-
Grated machines and a dozen or more
additional here for demonstration
purposes. There was a parade last
nigh; of ten new machines. run here
for the first time. Many new or

indie atoms that by the full opening
of spring next year 100 automobiles
will be owned by citizens of Guthrie.

!. wadesboro, N. G., September "a
Several representative men. with A. II.
Richardson, Of Ansonville. in the lead.
have taken the initial steps looking
forward to the development of the
Northern section of the county. Mr..
has employed surveyors and had made
plans OF hydro electric plant near
Kendall Ferry. in Rocky River, fifteen
miles north of Wadesboro.
dam and powerhouse. which Will cost
about 100000. will produce from 5000
to 1000 horsepower. The plans as
drawn provide for a dam across the
river, which. is only 200 feet wide al
the pro- proposed point with high bank ,5
On the Stanly county side the main
dam will extend 900 feet beyond the
river bank, with abutments and a
core wall with earth dam 300 feet In
length. The natural surroundings are
perfect and back from this dam there
will be a natural reservoir extending
for several miles. The line of the new
Wtnston-S Southbound passes
and the promoters expect to see a
new town and manufacturing centre
established. With the cheap power
generated at the plant. large cotton
mills can be operated at a good profit.
The work to be done Just now is
pletion OF the Organization Of the
company for the purpose OF securing
the needed capital. It Is thought that
the plant can be built by the enlist.
ment OF local hnanciers, although
prominent Eastern capitalists are anx-
ious to take up the proposition.
In addition to the hydro-electrIc
plant. Mr.. Richardson has enlisted the
interest Of several prominent capital
