The Commonwealth believes it
would be wise act on the part
Of our city fathers, and one great
ly in the interest Of economy IN
the future, if they would have the
center row Of trees on Main street
removed before the pipes for
waterworks are laid. It may be
that the elm roots will not inter
fere with the metal water pipes.
but there's no doubt about them
greatly damaging the sewer pipe.
Unless the trees are removed, the
roots will in a few years serious
ly damage the system. It is hop
ed the trees will be removed at
once. A stitch in time is worth
nine.

Now is the time for the farm
ers to SOW clover. Seed are mighty
high, but even at the present
price, it is the cheapest and best
manuring for our land. One bush
Ell of clover seed properly planted
will benefit the land more than
a ton of fertilizer. One bushel
of seed will cost about eight dol
lars, one ton Of guano about $50.
Figure it out for yourself. Even
if you don't get more than a half
stand of, clover you'v done your
land more permanent good than
your ton of fertilizer.

-, 1t is understood that move is
on foot to build bridge across
Roanoke River at some point be-
tween Halifax and BERTHE coun-
ties. This paper will render any
assistance it can in developing the
project. No one can tell the won
derful benefits to both counties
Of such a bridge. There's no use
saying it can't be built. It can
and will be, if the people Of this
community really want it. One
characteristic Of our people in and
around Scotland Neck, is to have
what they want. Build this
bridge and future generations will
call you blessed. AS it is now,
you have neighbors just across
Roanoke, within eight or nine
miles of this town you don't even
know. If such bridge was built,
those people would visit here and
our people would visit over there,
would learn to know each other.
! Our merchants would be benefit
ted by a larger trade. Get to-
gether and build this bridge and
| a good road to it and the com
munity will reap benefits never
thought of. The possibilities In
the project for wonderful devel-
opments in all our relations are
great. Weldon and Roanoke Rap
ids have a bridge across Roanoke
River connecting Northampton
and Halifax counties. Ask any
one from either side of these
bridges if it's a good thing.
If those people can build q
bridge, why cant this commun
ity? It can! Think it over.

The policy of the paper will be
that Of serving the public to the
best interest of the community
that the Commonwealth will
stand for right regardless of
might; that cleanliness and NOR
atty will be demanded on behalf
of the boys and girls we have here
who are growing to manhood and
womanhood that improvements
for town, township and county
will be recommended and fought
for whenever these prove to be for
the well-being Of the whole peo-
pie: that in all things the Com
monwealth will be democratic in
policy and principle, and that we
will at all times feel blessed that
we are in community where
clean and decent interests are

Lord has blessed us beyond our
deserts.

Hish Taxea.

Four yeaIs ago when two oi
the Eprescnt board of county

purposes threw up his hands
in horror because the taxes for
1911, under republican board,
on the ne sec 27-7 A were
$17. SO. which be referred to as
"outlandish increase of taxes. 4"
He pledged the democratic can
didates for lower taxes. The
taxes on that same quarter Of
land for the year 1918 under a
democratic board is $31.75 an
increase of taxes on his pet quar-
ter of land of $l4. 10 in the short
space of four years.
In the language of the Enter
prise editor, how ia this for an
'outlandish increase of taxes.

crease in taxes for the past four
years but his attempted expia-
