INJURTNa WINSTON.

Every little while some one writes
either to this paper or to some to
bacco manufacturer here asking
about the cigar and gift-Watch con-
Germs whose manner of doing BUSH
ness is unquestionably iniuring the
reputation OF Winston These bust
nesses are generally conducted under
names that are not here, such as
'tNeal, Click & Co., the great South
ern Tobacco and Cigar House," or
G. Tobacco Co." 1t is safe to
say that these concerns are hardly
known and are certainly not rec
ognized by the leading tobacco
manufacturers here. Moreover, the
cigars which are sent out by these
concerns are not made here. They
are cheap Pennsylvania cigars, made
mostly in Pittsburg by the cheapest
labor. No cigars are made here eX-
cept by W. A. Virgins and V. o.
Thompson, in neither of whose fac
tories are cigars made on a large
scale. 1t would be more honest for
these cheap-cigar and-watch men if
they would do business under their
own names. The fact that they
don't is against them. One of
these concerns offers to sell 800
cigars and a Zine engraved solid
gold filed, stem winding and stem
setting, lever movement quick train,
expansion balance, full jewelled
watch guaranteed "to wear 20
years." all for $1O5Ol
We publish here a letter just re-
ceived by The SENTINEL. 1t is a
sample of such letters as come to
Winston frequently. The leading
tobacco manufacturers receive
almost constantly requests for
information regarding these con-
Germs. People may judge for them
selves the sort of reputation Win
ston will have among people who
have had their first acquaintance
with Winston through such transac-
tions. Here is the letter:
"1sLETA, o., June 1, 1898.

town representing themselves as the

THE MOSLEM WORLD.

We have received the first issue of
THE Moslem World" published in
New York, and we must say that We
are surprised at two things, viz: the
attempt to propagate the religion of
Mohammed in this Christian country
and the excellence and neatness of
the publication which is edited by
Hon. Alexander Russell Webb, form
erly United States Consul in Egypt.
This new periodical will be a source
of curious study and information
regarding a religion which has more
followers than Christianity. 1t will
interest the student of history end
of comparative religion. The Ash
attic Quarterly Review claims that
Mohammedanism is a very rational
religion, to which we would say, in
reply, that the most rational nations
are imbued with Christianity and
not the religion of Mohammed. Here
and there some man of Christian
education takes fancy to the re-
ligion of Budda or Mohammed. in
both of which there are many beauti
full things. The doctrines of Buddha
are better known in this country
than those of Mohammed because
of Edwin Arnold's Light of ASIA"
a beautiful poem which has had
many thousands of readers. With
such an earnest exhorter as Mr..
Webb, it is possible that the teach
ings of the Arabian prophet may be
widely read. For the interest and
satisfaction OF our readers we print
the first sura Tor section) of theHoly
Koran.
Praise be to God, Lord ofthe worlds. =
The Compassionate, the Merciful,
King on the day OF Judgment
Thee, alone, do we worship,
And to Thee do We cry for help.
Guide Thou on the right path,
he path of those to whom Thou art gracious
Not ofthose with whom Thou art an gered,
Nor of these who go astray

ANOTHER FIRM.
What Osburn, Hill & Co. Say of the
Situation.

A SENTINEL representative called
on Messrs. Ogburn, Hill &
Company Monday and asked for
an interview as to the present and
prospective outlook in the tobacco in
dustry and the general condition of
trade. To the que stion as to their
business as compared with last year
Mr.. Ogburn replied:
During the months of January.
February and March our business was
never better, but during April and
May there was some falling off in or
ders. April, however, is always a dull
month in the tobacco trade. Our
shipments up to the present have
been, we suppose, about up to the
average" Turning to their books for
exact figures, they were surprised to
lind that their shipments up to June
ISL had exceeded those of last year by
10000 pounds.
How are collections ?" asked the
reporter.
collections have been fair-quite
as good as we expected"
Nv hat do you thiLk of the Reynolds
failure and its effect upon the trade
and the city,"
wen, we cannot see any serious
results to follow the failure: indeed.
it will not affect the manufacturers at
all. Even if, in the settlement of the
estate, what manufactured stock he
has on hand is thrown upon the mar
ket and sold at a discount there is not
enough of it to demOraliZe the general
trade or affect prices. 1t may have a
tendency to temporarily hurt the city
somewhat abroad. among people who
do not understand the situation, but
1T should not have. The failure was
simply due to an unfortunate concat-
enatlon OF circumstances. and will
doubtless soon be adjusted.''
what of the future outlook?''
I'VE see nothing particularly alarm
ing in the situation. Nest of the
present stringency has been brought
about by reckless spectators and ras-
Gals in the North and West. The re-
| peated failures there have naturally
alarmed people, and those who have
| money are disposed to hoard and hold
| to 1T. The crisis is due really more TO
| scare" than to scarcity of money.
The money is in the country, but the
| trouble is to get it into the channels
of trade. The reaction will come af-
| ter awhile and the depression will be
lifted. As to loans and discounts by
| banks we cannot speak, as we have
had no occasion to borrow any
money"
What of Winston's future?"
WlnSton'S future is all right. The
| general scare will have its temporary
| effect, but we believe that the manu-
| facturerS and the general business OF
| city will be In better shape next fall
| than it ever has been"

SHOULD BE HERE.

There is scarcely a. citizen of Win
ston-Salem or of the ten counties for
which this is the commercial metro
polls but desires to see the collectors
office located in this city. They be-
lieve it belongs here. The bulk of
the business is here; the factories and
the distilleries are mainly in this or
in neighboring counties. All the
substantial reasons are in our favor.
1t is detriment to business that
the Office is not here. AS one among
many endorsements of the course of
this paper we subjoin the following
letter:
WINSTON, n. c., May 27, 1898.
"W. T. Burbank, Esq, Editor and
Proprietor, Winston, N. c.
DEAR SIR:-We note with much
pleasure the vigorous fight you are
making through the columns ofyour
valued paper in the interest of the
main office of the Internal Revenue
being located here. Winston is the
head center and great manufactur.
ing point of this district, and for the
main Office to be located at q place
that does little or no manufacturing,

very much like case of the tail

ran out OF stamps first of the week,
and we have been unable to ship any
goods for past five days on that ac-
count. Trusting your efforts may
be crowned with success, we beg to
remain, Yours very truly,

PENSION GASES.

1t IS fact which startles one as he
thinks about it: This government
pays half a million dollars a day
for pensions. Some cases of fraud
which have just been unearthed show
how the government is made prey
by the inscriptions. One man who
received $4,000 was ruptured, but it
has been proved that he was ruptur
ed before the war. Another man to
get pension procured two soldiers
to swear that he received his
injury while in service and four
tramps to swear that they knew him
we'll when he enlisted and that he
was sound at the time As a matttr
of fact he was discharged from the
service seven months after enlist
ment on a surgeons certificate An
other pensioner drew $4,000 for a
wound alleged to have been received
in battle in 1862, when as a matter
of fact his injury was received in Ger
many. We are a patient people to
stand these pension frauds and ex-
travagancies a s long as we have.

THE STATE OF TRADE.

Louisville: A fair movement is re-
ported in general merchandise. Leaf
tobacco is higher, with light receipts.
Whisky very quiet. There is a better
feeling in the money market, and
legitimate demands are being met by
the banks.
Richmond: Trade in all lines con-
tinues quiet, though in some in
stances sales for May are reported
ahead of last year. The stringency
at the money centers has caused the
banks to be very careful of their dis
counts, and while taking care Of
their customers they are making as
few loans as possible, in order to in
crease the reserve funds
Baltimore: The supply of money
appears about equal to the demand
Rates continue at per cent. The
present scarcity of money does not
materially affect credits, for com
mercial interests are being taken
care of. ard all legitimate wants are
kept supplied. Fall orders are being
received for limited amounts. Gener-
al opinion is hopeful, and it is
thought that with the warmer wealth
er business will improve.
