BUILDING COTTON MILLS ON THE
INSTALLMENT PLAN.

Cotton factories built on the INSTALL
ment plan have succeeded elsewhere,
and with every advantage there is no
reason why such an enterprise, no mat
ter how secured, would not pay here
also. Can we not have the cotton
factory?-Henderson GOLD LEAF.
You are right, Brother Manning.
Mills established on the installment
plan have succeeded elsewhere. One
instance appears right here in CASTOR
ia. There are one or two similar ones
N Charlotte. They will succeed in
Henderson. When you get ready to
push this matter, come to Gastonia
and let the Gazette pilot you over
one or two mills in the second (some
say firsD cotton manufacturing county
in the State. Mills on the installment
plan are great saving institutions. If
there is anything our young men and
all other small but regular wage earners
need in the South now, it is the en-
couragement of weekly savings. There
are several such right here in our town
who in one hundred and sixteen
weekly payments to date have laid up
snug little sums in the stock of this
mill, without which they wouldn't
have had a red to show for their earn
lngs. Push your cotton mill-have
the looms put in, too, to weave the
product of your spindles.-Gastonia

COMPLIMENT TO MR.. JERNIGAN.

In recent issue of the Celestial
Empire, published at Shanghai, China,
a copy Of which is before US, We find
the following complimentary alluslon
to Hon. Thos. r. Jernigan, of North
Carolina, Consul General of the United
States at that place. Mr.. Jernlgan
made a fine record as Consul to Japan
under President Cleveland's first
administration, and it is gratifying to
know that he is winning fresh laurels
in the diplomatic field. 1t is not
saying too much perhaps to state that
no representative in the foreign service
of the Government has made a more
enviaole reputation or has been more
efficient and faithful to his official
duties than this distinguished son Of
North Carolina: The following testi-
monial Of his usefulness and capability
will be read with interest by his
friends:
Yesterday the Hon. T. r. Jernigan,
United States Consul General at
Shanghai, was made the recipient of a
we'll expressed and well merited testi-
monial, signed by representatives of
the many Protestant missionary de-
nominations in China. The testimo-
NAL was quite unexpected, but all
who are aware of the prompt assist
ance that Mr.. Jernigan has rendered
and even more SO, unoflc-
tally, at all times when his assistance
has been desired, will readily agree
with the givers of the testimonial that
it was we'll deserved. Mr.. Jernigan
has been but, comparatively speaking,
a short time in out midst, yet none Of
his predecessors have discharged the
consular and judicial duties
of the Office with greater promptuess,
fairness and courtesy to all concerned.
We hope to see Mr.. Jernigan long
US and we have much pleasure
in publishing a copy of the testimo-
NAL presented to him, which is as
follows:
1.-The missionaries of the American
Protestant churches in China, recog-
lizing the difficult and perplexing du-
les devolving on the United States
Jonsul-General during the war, and
the readiness and prompt
less with which Mr.. Jernigan has at
I'll times given his aid and influence in
he furtherance and protection of their
interests, desire to present to him this
testimonial of their sincere regard,
md acknowledgment Of his unfailing
courtesy and the answering faithful
less with which he has upheld the
honour of our country and its Christian
Institutions.

and President S. 3. Alexander and
Directors W. c. Maxwell and J. T.

road, with reference to the lease of the

lnately stated that they would bid for
the lease, and asked that the lease be
deferred for further consideration
The North Carolina road is now one of
the important links in the Southern
system. If the Southern Railroad
company fails to get the State road. il
can make a through connection over
other roads it owns by building about
forty miles of track aud relay rails for
about forty miles more on existing
tracks. Considerable competition NAV
develop for the control of the State road
1t is supposed the Coast Line NAV

In the second heat Gentry again took
the lead with Patchen close up un til the

a shoe, and Gentry logged to the wire
2:O64 going the three quarters in

In the third heat McHenry sent
Gentry away at two minute clip
which carried Patchen off his feet and
he broke badly. He was not in tafter
that and McHenry could have shut him
out
