BUILDING IN BLACKSBURG.
Soiitt' Nvw Kiit«*rpriH<‘H that are Now Ite-
kni; Inaugurated in the Iron City.
Mr O A. Osborne, of Blacksburg.
Is one of the progressive citizens of
that city who is kind enough to re
member The Ledger when he comes
to Gaffney. He does’nt seem to fear
us and is always ready to extend th*
glad hand, and on the other hand ’*•
are always delighted to see him for
his genial manner and smiling coun
tenance are always good fortheblue-
YY’hen asked yesterday if he had any
news he said :
“YY’hy yes! The Blacksburg Cotton
j Seed Oil Mill and Ginnery started up
! last week. This is h new enterprise.
, just, started up and we expect that it
! will do u thriviug business. The
Blacksburg Spinning and Knitting
Mill ntarfed un this morning. This
is the firs* time that steam has been
turned on in this mill. The machin
ery will all be a djusted in a few days
| and the mill running on full time.
The Bank of Blacksburg will open up
for business tomorrow. Mr Morrow
| is president of tne bank and his son
will be cashier. This enterprise will
a little from the banking
business of Gaffney, but I feel sure
tiiat your interests will not suffer,
tor what helps Blacksburg is obliged
to heip Gaffney, and vice versa. The
capital stock of the bank is $10,000
The hank has had nice quarters fit
ted up in the old Iron City H<>t«l
block and has installed an elegant
vault and other office appurtenances.
Yes, Blacksburg is coming to the
front once more and if we can keep
up the pace set it will not be so very
long until we will have a city that all
Cherokee will be proud of.”
The Ledger is always delighted to
hear of the progress of Blacksburg.
For some reason or another we huv«
always had a warm spot in our heart
for the town, for we have many good
friends over there and we have no
hesitancy in saying that we would
like to have some more. YV’e wish
her all manner of prosperity.
