Enterprise Began Daily Run After Owner Was Away
In 1905 The High Point Enterprise switched from weekly to daily after owner J. J. Farriss was in New York. The paper started March 31 1905 with one page nine by six inches and little advertising run by hand set type. Early troubles included a misstep when W L Stamey toppled the type delaying a publication.
