In a country like Holland, where the
legal liability of employers for compen-
sation in the case Of accidents to their
artisans does not exist, and has no chance
Of being adopted, the employers them
selves, recognizing that they owe their
work people Il little more than bare
wages, feel that they ought to combine
at least to lessen the dangers to life and
limb. which exist in every factory more

Of employers upon the mutual plan, with
a committee Of experts, which would
visit the factories of the members from
time to time, reporting defects whereby
dangers TO life and limb arc increased
and suggesting remedies. The society
will also organize lectures and issue
pamphlets, give rewards for useful in
ventions tending to minimize danger,

the safest factories, and finally hold ex.

attracting the attention of eastern people.
especially is this true since the completion

Many desirable farms may yet be had
in this remarkably productive region on
reasonable terms, as the settling of this

Price, in the Goth year of her age.
Miss Cora Stephens went to Win

Our people are elated over what
they consider the promising prospect
of the Danville and Southwestern
railroad. The action of the Danville
city council last Saturday was favor
able to the location Of the road by
way of Leaksville; and Mr.. Taylor,
of the company, who passed through
this place Monday, spoke in no I'M
certain terms of this route as the
most practicable and desirable.
While nothing positive has trans
pired or been directly promised, the
probabilities grow brighter every
day that the near future will present
something tangible with regard to
the early construction of the road by
way of Leaksville and Madison. The
abundance of water-power and the
unlimited resources of this section
are attractions too significant to be
sighted.

THE CUTTER TRUST.
SEINE New Developments in the Cigar
cite Business.

cite Business.
From the DanriHe Tobacco Journd.
The buyers for the cigarette trust
are off the market. On Tuesday OF
this week kilograms were received
here by the several buyers for the
big cigarette concern and since then
these gentlemen had been silent and
bought no cutters. Tuesday was the
day when the Bonsack people held
their meeting in Lynchburg and re-
fused to. sell their patents for ST.
OOO, 900.
This fact, coupled with the tele-
grams received, lead our tobacco
people to conclude that there has
been q hitch somewhere in negotia-
tions
As soon as these order men drop
ped off the market the spectators
came in and took up the cutter
grades at fair prices. While the COM
petition was not 80 brisk and prices
may have Jagged a little, still the
spectators were active bidders and
paid good round prices for these
goods.
1t is now well known here and in
Richmond that a movement is on
foot to check the cigarette trust peo-
pie in their control of the cutter mar
ket: Negotiations are going on by
which it is hoped to raise sum of
$5,OOO,OOO with which to buy cut
tiers. A prominent speculator on
this market says that he can take
that sum or even a smaller amount
and control the cutter supply, and
at the same time pay good prices
for these goods. From what we
could learn this week we believe
that the movement will succeed and
money will be forthcoming. The
native tobacco buyers in Virginia
and North Carolina know. the Gins
and "outs" of the leaf business and
can afford to buy the cutter crops on
a smaller per cent. of profit than the
trust people can. Our leaf men are
already in the business, and can han
die the cutter crops on a smaller
margin, and they should have the
handling of these goods. 1t is fact
that the trust people must have all
the cutters that are grown, and il
the SPECTATORS get together their
money they can easily control these
goods. It is well known that the
cigarette men can afford to pay 81
per pound for their tobaccos and
then make money. If the spectators
corner the crop it is likely that the
trust will not get these tobaccos for
less than q good round sum.
The SPECTATORS movement is be
ing quietly worked by prominent cut
ter men here, in Richmond, in Oxford
and elsewhere.
