came from as far south as Osyka and
from Clarksdale on the north. On the
way here they were Joined by autoists
from nearly all intermediate places, and
the streets of Jackson presented a lively
scene between and o'clock.
The board of trade rooms were head
quarters for the visitors, and there they
were given a reception and entertainment
lasting well along into the night. The
highway proposition was discussed in all
its Nphases. and the representatives of
every town were heartily in favor of us

next day, others working for you.
Risberg has had the experience Of
the three stages; day laborer, miner,
small contractor, doing his own work,
and at last his experience and push
has made it possible for him to look
to bigger things; bigger contracts,
greater responsibilities; always, al
ways the hammer must be on the
strike to get results.
He has been resident of Virginia
a little over eight years, is married
and four little Risberg's are busy
inspecting the sidewalks that papa
built.
His partner, William Warwick, or
Billy, as he is usually called, is an
old timer in Virginia. He has passed
through the fire in a literal sense,
and he allows it was hot and swift
one. Marwick's motto Is: "'Play the
game, but play it square" Except
in one thing, all who know Billy
Warwick says that he lives up to his
motto, and has always done so. That
one exception is against him, and will
always operate against him until he
makes amends. He is old enough ia
get married, but he absolutely re-
fuses to consider the proposition that
one and one make one. It's against
his conception of the rules Of arith.
metic, no matter how old and time
honored the proposition might be:
One and one make two, says Bill.
and if you don't believe me, take a
look at the divorce courts. But
Billy's friends live in hope, and, if
the truth of the matter must be told,
Billy has hopes himself. He is only
waiting until next leap year comes
around, because he is really bash
full man.
Mr.. Warwick has been in the en-
ploy of the city of Virginia many
years and in different capacities. He
has been a fireman, engineer Of the
fire steamer, and before he entered
into the partnership with Risberg, he
had charge of all machinery of the
city.
The first contract the partnership
secured, as such, was from the city,
and it was of proportions to make
the boys get move on themselves
It was in fact make or break, and
both of the partners made up their
minds that it was to be make.
This contract was awarded to them
last spring, or the early part Of the
summer, and it called for the ex.
pendirure of $4,000.
Billy says it looked awful big TO,
starter, but Thor said, Get out you,
hummer and go to it. All right sale

Mattson & Thurston Represent Nine
Companies, Every One Million
Dollar Concern.

The partnership of Mattson and
Thurston, having it's offices on the
second floor of the Mattson building
No. 500 Chestnut street, in Virginia,
is an old established firm. The part
ners are Conrad Mattson, and J. M.
Thurston, and they are both hustlers.
Their business is general insurance
and real estate. Insurance against
loss by fire, and other elements, and
we'll as against accidents. They rep
resent nine different companies, and
every one Of them is million concern.
The partnership have been in bust
ness since 1906, starting in the Stein
& O'Rourke Block, where they con-
tinued until 1912, when they moved
into the present quarters.
Both of the members are well known
IN the city, and all concede that they
are good business men, and always on
the square. IT,
Mr.. Mattson, the senior member,
is now one Of the aldermen Of our city,
and he is ever on the alert and on
the lookout for an opportunity to
promote the welfare of his-town. :
Mr.. Mattson is an uncompromising
enemy to the liquor traffic, and even
those who do not agree with him,
must confess that he is as consistent
as he is honest in his convictions. .
1t is well known that he has never
voted to grant liquor license. He IS
open and above in the matter, and
many dealing in liquor say that they
have more respect for him than for
one who tries to win the good graces
Of both sides.
Their business Is steadily inereas-
