SOMETHING NEW
FOR THE LAUNDRY

WHEAT is it1 WELL II they lsS!,a have adopt;
that is the Pound System" This is tue
fairest way of washing that has ever been

The widespreading influence of vicious
legislation, says the st. Louis Republic, is
forcibly illustrated in the effects Of the
Mckinley tariff directly upon the cotton
J trade and indirectly upon other branches
Of business. By increasing the tax upon
$ foreign cotton goods brought to this
country, and by helping to unsettle busi-
{ ness in Europe. one of the first effects Of
the new tariff was to start decline in cot
z ton that has only lately been arrested.
The protected manufacturers, in faco Of
the decline in the price of raw cotton, ad-
vanced the prices Of staple bleachcd and
ssunbleached cotton goods roportionatcly
with the increased protection. But the
Southerners being short ofmoney, reduc-
ed their purchases, not only of cotton
goods, but of all other manufactured ar
ticles; and it is fact Of the business sit
nation to-day in st. Louis, continues tho
Repu5lic, and every other commercial
centre, that sales to the South are mark
edly smaller than in ordinary seasons.
The vicious economic legislation of the
Billion Dollar Congress, as it affects cot
son, therefore, hurts not only the South,
but the manufacturing and business inter-
s ests of the whole country

The Executive Committe of the Glenn
SON College Trustees have issued circu-
lar stating that it has been determined to
ssmake exhibits of the products and indus
tries OF the State at the Augusta EXPOSE
ion. The committee asks the earnest
:sco-operation Of our farmers toward fur
saishing the agricultural exhibits. The
value Of such exhibits depends upon the
purity and quality of the article end Its
ssbeing displayed in liberal way. Contrib
tutors are requested to notify the Secre-
5tary OF State at once. If the article to be
exhibited is bought, only the name of the
1 Comfy will appear. If contributed, the
q nance Of the donor. will be placed upon it.
Cow Tllln1an has called convention to
ameet in Columbia during the State fair
'9t0 devise plan for securing an exhibit
stor South Carolina at the Worlds Fair in
SsE,hicago9 in 1913. Such action is timely.
South Carolina should have an exhibit at
Ssshis great fair that will show to the ma
lions OF, The world the wealth and magni-
ssndes OF her natural resources, together
with q grand display of her agricultural
and manufacturing products and such
sother rexhibats as will give evidence of the

SSnous Palm etto State in all the useful
t,nrsuits and occupations and industries
that may. be found within her borders.

The Charleston Daily World suspended
publication on Wednesday Of last week,
having been in existence about three and
Ia half years at the time of its collapse.
The paper;was not paying expenses and
Nh. +. s. Rodgers, who owned the paper,
and furnished money to run it, decided
that he was paying too dear for his whis-
tie, so allowed it to suspend publication.
Thu World espoused the cause of Captain
TiMman during his campaign of last year,
aud. is said to have made some money by
this stroke. However, this friendship
sssoo;a turned into bitter hatred, and the
paper has been on the decline ever since.
sMr. Octayus Cohen was managing editor
sof the paper. The World will hardly be
missed from South Carolina journalism,
forit never seemed to comprehend and
grasp the possibilities that surrounded it.

sed policy that so much commends pa
per to the public, but seemed ready to

temporary favor with some party or class

failure of the World seems due to it's man.

elJT THEY COULD NOT GET THE
WATER IN TIME.
A Dmcult Matter to Obtain any Infor
Escapes-The Firemen's Work.

At 1870 this morning Fort Worth was
listed by one of the most destructive fires
known in years. The Ellis hotel
Ind the building in the rear
Used as an annex are heap of smoking
ruins. This could all have been saved had
tie water pressure been sufficient For a
tine it looked as though the
entire block would go, but the
efforts Of the fremen succeeded in prevent
Ing the flames from crossing the alley, and
the result is that the loss will be confined
TO that portion of the block bounded on
tie west by Throckmorton, on the south by
Third, on the North by Second and on the
east by the alley. The following is dia-
gram OF the burnt district, which will more
etecually explain the situation:
Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1891-09-21
Cindcrs.

Miss Spence, the stenographer, of The
GAZETTE, had narrow escape from the
third story Of the annex, and only sue
cceded in saving herself by making rope
of sheets and dropping one story.
Three or four travelling men in the third
story of the annex barely escaped with a
few clothes on. One of them had his
mustache singed completely off.
The horses in Browns livery stable were
cut loose when it was found that the fire
was of such dimensions. They ran from the
stable and around the streets, but invaria-
bly, returned and attempted to
again enter the stable, from
which it was nearly impossible to drive
them away. None of them were seriously
Injured
The fremen on the Santa Fe building did
excellent work in saving the building.
The water was scarce and the pressure
was weak If this had not been SO, the fire
might have been checked.
In the corner room next to the Traders
bank four travelling men escaped. One of
them went back for his valises, two IN
number, and barely escaped with his
life.
Mrs Ruth Kiltinger had narrow escape
from the flames When the alarm was
given she started for the flames, but was
jerked back by her husband. She escaped
on a sheet rope
The staircase next TO the kitchen was
the only avenue of escape before the flames
cut it off. This was cut off early and the
only escape was out of the windows.

New YORK, Sept. 2C-An exhaustive
study of the worlds food supply in the
forthcoming number of the American agri-
culturist, emphazies its grave importance to
both America and Europe. It declares that
the half has not been told about the Euro
pean shortage in bread stuffs. which
not even bountiful crop this
year would lave relieved. The
continental powers, especially Russia,
suppress the facts as far as possible. In
many Russian provinces the scarcity of
food became pronounced as far back as
February last. In Kohenstantenovka dis
trict many families have uot cooked a meal
since Easter, but subsist on bread, soaked
rye, grain, etc, bestowed in charity. The
prohibition of rye exports is followed by q
ukase forbidding the shipment of
bran and other cereal cattle
food. The astounding shortage in
the Russian yield of rye announced a month
since by the minister of France, proves
even greater than the most extravagant
idea. That eastern Germany is practically
in the same plight admits of no doubt.
The European reserves are every
where exhausted. The danger of famine is
destined to share in Europe with the horrors
of war. For fully twelvs months hence, ac-
cepting the largest estimate of production
both at home and abroad, and even assum-
ing that the United States and Canada ex-
port go. 900, 900 bushels there is deficit in
the worlds food supply of at least 200, 0O0,-
600 of wheat and rye, with 4 possibility of
the shortage being twice as great.

Looking for Homes.

GUTHRIE, o. T., Sept. 20-The Sabbath
lost its sanctity in Guthrie toby. The day
set for the opening of the new lands is only
two days in the future, and in the face of
that event affairs of creed are almost ig-
nored. The Santa FEES passenger trains all
came IN to-day IN sections of ten and twelve
cars, each section carrying hundreds of
home seekers. The latter were
hustling around buying outfits and
bargaining for conveyances to the border
of the new lands Others were preparing
to start and still others we're just getting
away. There was bedlam in the streets
and confusion everywhere. The churches
all held the usual services, but they We're
slightly attended. Nearly every one
wanted to observe the scenes on the
streets and learn the latest news con-
corning the opening. Much satisfaction
IS expressed over Secretary Mobiles order to
registers and recorders of the land Office to
prevent, so far as may be in their power,
fraud in connection with the filing of deca-
ratory statemementS OF old soldiers. The
traffic in these declaratory statements has
been suspended, home seekers regarding
them as an extra hazardous investment.
Nevertheless, the line of old soldiers and old
soldiers attorneys which formed Friday at
the door of the land Office here has length
ened itself out fifty yards since yesterday
and every hour adds to its length. There
have been few disputes and disturbances
serious nature. One notable feature of the
preparation for the race is the quiet which
attends it. The only sign of serious dis
turbance SO far has been at Langs-
ton, where the cowboys object to
the negroes massed there taking possession
of the Cimarron valley, an extremely fer
tile country. A serious conflict was threat
ened there at one time, but the prompt ar
rival of a large force of deputy United
States marshals from Guthrie has so far
prevented an outbreak, and it is believed
all danger of disturbance there has now
passed away and the officers VIII remain
there until Wednesday morning to see that
peace is preserved, and that all legal
claimants are protected from violence.
Surveyors have been at work ever since
Friday on the town site of the new county
seat. 1t is Governor Steele's desire that
these surveys should be completed before
Tuesday. None of the lots in cities can be
claimed until the survey is completed, and
any delay after Tuesday would. cause a con-
gregation of eager crowds around the seat
and would doubtless cause much serious
disturbance.

What Can't Ellis Saws.

Some one telephoned Capt. ]. F. Ellis,
the owner of the burning buildings, as the
Arlington and Montgomery building was
falling in, and he at once came down from
his residence in the suburbs. When
seen at the fire by GAZETTE man he ap-
peared to be the coolest man on the grounds.
He says that the Ellis hotel building, the
annex building, the furniture and fixtures
were worth between 100000 and
$4,000. He had insurance to the amount
of SO, 900 on all the property mentioned.
Both the buildings were comparatively
new, the Ellis hotel building. which is of
stone, being especially well built.

seek It's level and would necessarily
be cheaper than we have any right
now to expect. Under the Law aS il exists,
the rate of interest teXCept to our bank bar
rOwers) will be arbitrarily prescribed by
the New England lender within leca. limits.
The position that this law Will have soma
tendency TO keep interest rates higher than
they would otherwise have been Is espec-
tally clear when we consider that thg
owners OF surplus foreign money are Gc
customed 10 very low rates OF interest. and
would, therefore, be contentcd with a lower
rate than would the owners of Northern
and Eastern money. This, in addition %
the influence of more extensive Coupe'l-
ton. of which we are now partially &c.

ally destroying competition in the rates of
interest; (3) of driving cut OF Texas vast
sum of Inuch-noeded money now in CirCuld-
ton; % of barring out foreign money
which otherwise would come INTO Texas, no
matter how great our industrial needs may
be. Hence by reducing the volume of cir
culation in Texas, tuow nsuficieuD by re
ducinS the amount OF available capital below
our present and future industrial needs,
the alien land law will very seriously
cramp the development of Texas,
and by so doing viii operate ad-
versely against the interest of the state at

individually
Weighed in the balances Of industrial de
vclopment, the alien Ian law rs it now
stands must be considered exceedingly III
