cotton mills company by electing the follow
ing board of directors: L. NJ. Wartield, John

Fox.
The board will meet to-day, or some time

Thousand dollars have been subscribed in
cash and $4,000 in material for building
the factory. The charter allows the com
p ny to increase the capital stock TO $780,
600, but for the present 100000 will be the
capital. The 5000 required to bring the
amount upto 100000 Will be raised very
easily by the time the factory builing is
begun.
Although site has not yet been selected,
the company expects to have the factory in
operation within six or seven months. The
board OF directors is empowered to selec5
the site andt) put the factory in operation.
The meeting last night was an enthusiastic
one. S3S,OO0 of the stock subscribed was
represented. The meeting was called to
order by Geo. w. o vens, Esq, and l.. NJ.

THE PUBLICs BUILDING.

The Movement for Change OF Site
and an Increased Appropriation.
The movement to secure a change in the
location of the new public building and an
additional appropriation by congress is we'll
started. Petitions setting forth the i1npor-
tance of a more adequate building, better
located than that upon which work has
already begun and fGvoring the Guards
arsenal site, we're circulated yesterday and
were largely signed.
Col. Garrard, who is the leader in the
movement, has written to Senator's Brown
and Colquitt and to the members OF con
e ess from this part Of the state urging
their cooperation with Congressman Lester
in securing larger appropriation in view
Of the necessities If the case. Col. Garrard
has also written to Judge Speer, who, it is
understood, is a1xiou; for the change in To-
cation, and will press upon the treasury
department the Importance of an
increased appropriate IN to provide build
ing. adequate to the purposes of the courts
and posJofice.
The Immediate effort is being directed
towards the suspension of work on the
present building. If that is accomplished
steps will at once be taken towards change
OF site and larger appropriation.

TIE TARB ON COTTON.
The Cotton Exchange Directors to
Discuss the Question To-day.

The Cotton Exchange Directors to
Discuss the Question To-day.
The board of directors of the cotton ex-
change will meet at II o'clock this morning
in regular session. President F. d. B.o0d
worth said yesterday that while the ex-
change has received no official notice of the
action of the convention at New Orleans,
which fixed the tare on cotton bagging, the
fact is known by the directors of the change
and will be discussed at to-day's meeting.
Representative Gordon has introduced
bill in the House to uend the law relative
to the sale of cotton, so that the tare shall
not exceed twenty-fJur pounds to the bale
OF 1ute-covered cotton, nor sixteen pounds
OF the cotton-covered bale. The bill also
provides that on cotton bales where ties are
| not used, the tare on jute-covered bales
shall not exceed ten pounds, nor five pounds
on cottoa-covered bale. This, Represent
alive Gordon explains, does not make il com
pulsory to sell at net weight and deduct
tare fr IN the gross weight, but allows it to
be done, many people having construed
section 1899 of the Code TO mean that no
tare deduction can be made
1t is thong t that this is better than to
compel everybody to conform to the radical
change in the method of sell ng aud dellv-
ering, whether or not. Tue proviso in the
ties is, of course. intended to include sea
island cotton in the baling Of which ties are
not used.
The Boston Journal of Commerce. re-
ferring to the laws governing the sale Of
cotton, says: 1--WE have been asked If ths
statutes OF any of the southern states have
anything to say on tue question of tare on
cotton bales. We are sorry to say that we
are unable to answer the inquiry as we
should like, but il would not be- strange if
some law of the kind did not exist, though
usually such matters are governed by trade
| custom. In 1916 the legislature of South
Carolina passed an ac5 which reads as
follows: That the custom Of making
reduction from the actual weight OF
bales of manufactured cotton, as an
allowance for tare or draught thereon, be,
and the sans is hereby abolished; and that
hereafter all contracts made in relation 20
sucl cotton shall be deemed and taken as
referring TO the true and actual weight
thereof, without deduction for any sIch
tare or draught.' Ii there is any existing
state law We should regard it as practically
dead so far as being recognized by the trade,
as it certainly could not be enforced outside
of the state limits"

The RACE Prnhlano

Mr.. Editor: 1 hope will not be consid-
cred an alarmist by the readers of this
article, for l only wish to give my views
concerning the "Baxley Affair."
No doubt the delegates to the Baptist
convention" were very roughly handled,
and treated in a manner re1usiye to
modern civilization" Now know of
but one way by wlich such unpleasant
episod can be averted certainly not by
the methods resorted to at Baxley)-only by
rational arbitration of the Be ker to \ ard
the Stronger race.
To illustrate how innocently ignorant
some of our you g Caucasians are l will
describe II scene, the authenticity OF which
can be vouched fox by many pade strians
who happe ed to be around tie market last
Saturday night. A negro boy standing at
the corner of Congress and Barn ird stress
remarked, as a Savannah dude came
marching by: "Where did YOU get that
hatT Whereupon everyone awaited with
anxiety for an outbreak Of evil lndig IA
ton, but instead the young ma J., turning
aroma, politely raised his hat, and in a
voice that must have disturbed the dead
calmly replied: From Dryfus Bros,
Congress and Jefferson streets. who are
displaying the most compete stock of
clothing, hats aud Furnishings to be found
in the CT y" whsreupon everyone rushed
to avail themselves of his kind advice.
