They have not : d< alt with us in a stinted man¬ ner but with that generous, pubbeepirited fervor that clou «< terizes good citizens and makes prosperous communi ti s—These a.ie the people of whom we are justly pround, and for whom we stand ready ai all times to do such as may be in our power for their fur¬ ther advancement. The Weekly is proud to he idebtified with this community —It has labored here for 17 years and. it hopes to be able to double and redouble its.ex ietouce here. To its numerous readers it extends a hand of cordiul new year greeting and hopes for each and all of them a full por¬ tion of health, happiness and prosperity. In this year, which we be¬ lieve will end the 19th century, we hope to tnako the paper superior in every respect to its past achievements and with the dawn, of the new century— should we be permitted, to see it—we hope to be able to point to, not oniy our success, but the general growth and prosperity of the people and the town and county. lake the Wjswy this year, The New Year, The new year has started in with a rush. A feeling of con¬ fidence pervades every line of business, as far as we are able to judge, and the prospect for general prosperity has not been brighter for a long lime, The people owe less and have more cash on hand and hotter assur¬ ances for making or securing still more. The avenues of trade >»ra still active and there is a general activity that is vory encouraging. The Weekly is more than proud of this and hopes that the people of tills community may reap the full benefits to he derived from the conditions cited. We would sug gest just here that the erection of a cotton factory at this place this year, so that it might be¬ gin opet iiious with the begin¬ ning of the new century would be a lit ting close to the old one and a l.is'ing and beneficial blessing to our people and city . We bops (lust this suggestion moo. be fruitful of good to (.Ion ■ ers before the close of the year. OUR ADVERTISERS. We call the attention of our readers to our advertisers—We have a splendid collection of reprosentat.ive business men in our columns this weeic and each of them commence the new year with bright, prospects ahead. They all have good large stocks and are making prices that no other county Wo commend , our advertisers , to the trading public. City Ordinances. We are requested to call at¬ tention to the fact that there are city ordinances prohibiting fist- or reckless driving, hitch | big to st ade trees, obstruction to streets and sidewalks, nui¬ sances, jumping on and off cars etc. These ordinances are all of much importance and will be rigidly enforced during the pres out year. It is also to he re¬ membered that there is an or¬ dinance to bo observed by all bicycle riders, It defines the limits and provides othetwise for the public safety, A tte 11 - tion is called to these ordinan¬ ces that the people may not blindly violate them. It is the intentioa of the pres¬ \ ent city officials to enforce the laws of the city and othenvise serve in their public capacity I I HAPPY NEW YEAR REDUCTION!
