Alien.

Tacoma. Wash, April 2s.-when the
government coast and geodetic survey
steamer Hassler. which had been at
work on the coast 20 years. was Offer
ed for sale here. Capt. John Irving of

is said to have declared allegience to

years he had NJ felt soangry; he would

Goringe now fell to wondering if he
had been forestalled in the finding of
the notes.-the notes which he was NOR

smile lit up his face rs he pondered
over this problem. This is the only

Closing the window he proceeded lei

rooms. Then he walked up stairs, and
entered the room which Mrs. Davorn
used to occupy. Here there were unmis-
taxable traces Of a recent disturbance.
Goringe could easily remember how the

The Norris Cotton Mills.

CENTRAL, PICKENs COUNTY, April T.
Ground will soon be broken here for the
building of the Norris Cotton Mills. This
company was successfully organized here
on the I'd inst. In compliance with the
general laws governing the formation of
corporations. Messrs. D. X. Norris, G.
NJ. Norris, j. P. Smith. J. d. Lay, j. II.
Dosher, T. L. Connor and w. V. Clayton
were elected as the board of directors.
The board afterwards elected Col. D. K.
Norris president and treaDurer and }. T.
Smith secretary.
The president will at once have the
proper surveys made, contracts for ma
terial given out and for the erection of the
main building, ware houses, operatives
houses, stores, etc. Twelve mile River
will furnish the motive power. This
company has had the good fortune to
secure one Of the best water powers in the
upcountry and one near to the railroad.
It il perennial in its flow through narrow
cliffs and falls rapidly on the company's
property one hundred and ten feet, de-
veloping fourteen hundred and twenty
three horsepower. Forty thousand
spindles will soon be made to whirl
where to-day all is idleness and waste.
It is contemplated in the near future to
turn the whole stream into q canal and
conduct it to the summit OF q bluff down
stream eighty-fve feet high, where 1t will
be discharged through iron fumes into
tho power house, located on a natural
plateau below. It will be be one Of the
ideal water powers of the State. In the
hands of Col. Norris the scheme will be
rapidly and effectively carried to compile

Trying to Corner TiIIman.

AUGUSTA, GA, April 5.-United States
Senator Benjamin Tiilman was in the
city to-day for the purpose Of transacting
private business. He was seen by Re-
porter for The Ne,0s and Courier and
asked few questions about politics, the
most important of these being whether
or no South Carolina would inject wo.
man suffrage clause in her new Conven-
tioE. In reply to this question the Sena-
tor asked the Reporter how in the name
Of Heaven he was to tell what they would
do at the Convention. The scribe an
swered this by telling his Senatorship
that 1t was generally believed throughout
the Union that he was somewhat conver-
SAINT with political moves In the Palmetto
State, and, therefore, few persons were
OF the opinion that he knew something
about the new Constitution or at least
knew what one or two clauses in it might
look like. He said that the political
mind of the State was ia nebulous con-
ditiop, that nothing definite had been
done in this direction and he was unable
to say whether woman nufrage would be
adopted or the Mississippi plan. 1--WE
have got to do away with the numerical
supremacy of tho negro in our State, but

A venturesome Knight.

To the Editor OF The Ne,Ds and Courier {:
Mrs. Virginia D. Young, one Of the lead
ers in the female suffrage movement In
South Carolina, in recent issue Of the
Marion Star gives as reason for extend
ing the ballot to women that 1t would
help to perpetuate white supremacy in
the State, meaning, of course, that we
should have an educational qualification
as prerequisite for voting.
While distinctly disclaiming any inten-
ton of making this political article, We
wish to say that white supremacy is in
no special danger in South Carolina, and
ifit was we fail to SEQ how cOnferring the
ballot on women would, in the least
degree, help the matter. No, far from
doing this it would very seriously COM
pIicate the situation and bring Us face to
face with real danger that has no pres
ent existence except in the Imagination
of those who use white supremacy as q
kind Of political war cry.
Unless Mrs. Young is inexcusably
ignorant or intentionally blind she would
not ignore the fact that if the right of
suffrage were given to her sex tomorrow
and there was general election to take
place at that time that nine-tenths of the
refined, cultured white women Of the
State would refuse to vote. The percent
age of education among the oolored wo-
men is greater, probably, than among
the men, and if they should all insist on
their right to stand the educational exam
ination and vote where would Mrs.
Young's claim for white supremacy come
in? Then, too, what possible benefit
would BIZ derived from doubling tho
number of voters3 For to say the least
this will never bring about the political
millennium that some of our friends, the
female suffrage advocates, promise Us in
case the women are allowed to vote.
In this connection we take tho liberty
of suggesting to those who propose any
thing so revolutionary and far-reaching
in its effects as comforting the ballot on
women would be, that they, in Justice
both to themselves and to those who diff
fer with them, should prove their case !;
in other words, show wherein we are to
be benefited politically, socially or NOR
ally by such an innovation. Unless they
do this they canrot hope for any degree
of SUCCESS in their crusade.

Buried Treasure.

MIR. E. M. Bass, of the well-known
house of E. NJ. Bass q Co., Is counting a
pile OF Mexican and Spanish coins and
trying to decipher the various inscrip-
tions and peculiar marks Oh them. Mr..
Bass and his brother own farm near
Carrollton and Friday the money was
plowed up in the field by an old negro
farm hand. The coins had been buried
for years near the stump Of an old tree
and their discovery was entirely acciden-
tai.
The old mans plow turned one Of the
pieces of money out of the ground and a
little work resulted in the finding OF
about S100. The coin must have been
buried fifty or more years ago, for the
most recent date on any Of the pieces is
1888. The oldest of the coins is Spanish
25-cent piece, which bears the date of1746.
Many of the smaller coirs have holes
punched in them and look ~ If they had
been worn strung around the neck OF
some person. The coins were brought to
Atlanta yesterday by Mr.. Bass's brother
and given to him to dispose Of
The old man who found them promptly
reported it to Mr.. Bass, who says he in
tends to give tho proceeds from their sale
to him. Many Of the coins are very
quaint and there. ia no doubt many a
collector of such things that would be de-
lighted to gel them all.-AtIanta Consti
