MACHINERY

Last week We printed in this paper
n cut OF oar shops to show that We
bad a large and well equipped plant
and facilities for making $ ch machln-
cry as is generally used hy our Own
people in North Carolina. This week
we will undertake to tell what we
make and sell.
We are the patentees and sole
builders Of
vhc Boss Cotton Press.
We began this work III 1878. Our
business grew until it covered the
whole South. We added other styles
Of presses to meet all the want Of
cotton ginners and cotton planters,
until VIC have fifteen different kinds,
and have built more cotton presses
than any factory IL the world. THIS
sounds Ike al e~xtravasaat statement,
but it s true. There are not a great
many press builders IL the world.
The most Of them are in tie South.
We know them and know enough
about them to b. absolutely sure that
this statement is correct.
Our books will show that we have
made and sent out about
! 5O0O Presses.
We couldn't have kept at the head
of the list, which we are to-day, if
we hadn't kept ahead Of the wants Of
the people. AS the gin houses began
to grow, we we're ready with presses
to meet the demand for increased
capacity. We have presses now-dl-
rect steam and revolving double box
presses-with a capacity Of
80 Bales per Day.
1t is interesting now to &C back AMI
see how L business grew. When a
man got a press from us he had to
have a pulley to drive it, and SO we
got into pulieys; hen into shafting,
pedestal boxes, hangers, couplings,
etc. In q year or two we were heels
over head In the business Of making
Engines and Boilers.
We made Is many Of them as we
could With the money and tools We
had. Whenever we got 5000 ahead
we bought q new ~tool-always the
best-and from that time to this we
have sold all the engines we could
build, and keep up with u other
work which was Increasing IN all lines.
We have considerably over 1000 en-,
, gines IN use. Last year we made and
sold Just 90. Ii We should stop every
Thing else We conll make

THE Bulletin says it has no t paid
much attention to the convict labor
proposition on che Enterprise
canal because it does not believe
the scheme practicable.
If it is practicable for the Terri
tory to lease the convicts on the
Ives canal we do not see why il
would not be practicable on the
Enterprise. Any scheme which
will complete this canal should be
hailed with delight by the resi-,
dents Of this county. 1t not only
means thousands of dollars kept
here annually, but it means thou,
sands Of dollars actually brought
in. There is a big demand for Gila
valley -four all over the south
western portion of the Territory
All the avai able wheat raised here
last year seems to have been con-
verted into flour and shipped out.
Only last Tuesday the q. G. Prina
and company mills received four
car loads of wheat from Salt River
and the Stafford Milling Company
one car load, for all of which
about $4,000 was sent away. 1t is
expected that about that much
more wheat will be shipped in this
spring by these two companies
alone. The mills are kept running.
day and night to supply the de.
mand. Before the next crop of
wheat is ready for market about
$4,000 will have left.
When the Enterprise canal is
completed the wheat yield of this
valley will increase at least one
third. With more wheat raised,
more flour will be manufactured;
with more -four manufactured the
increase Of money will be in pro.
portion. Build the Enterprise
canal. Build it with convict labor
if necessary.
We admit that il would be better
Il our own people would build, but
SO far not much has boeu done IN
proportion to what yet must DO
done. The canal will BE- built, and |
if those residing and owning land
here will not do it, some one else
will, !

WE MUST KNOW YOU.

1t again becomes our duty to
call attention to the fact that unless
communications are signed, so that
we will know who the correspon-
dent is, the articles will not be pub
lished. The precaution is not
alone taken for our own protection
but also for the protection of the
public. It's not necessary to pub,
lish the name of any correspon-
dent, but when sending matter to
us for publication we must know
you. If this precaution were not
taken any irresponsible person
could willfully blackmail a com
munity or individual and at the
samo time get the editor clicked"
We are perfectly willing TO be
thrashed for our own writing, but
not for that of some one else.
Within the last month we have
received several communications
which have been withheld because
we did not know the writer. One
from Bonita was especially i'm,
portant as it contained purported
facts concerning recent killing al
that place, which has apparentlynot
been made public. We made
several attempts to identify oul
correspondent but were unsuccess
ful and therefore obliged to with
bold the publication of the com
muRication.

We are happy TO note that the
GUARDIAN often mentioned by
the gold.bu bond-boodling press
of the Territory as being a repudia
tor and anarchist. These term are
applied because we have made an
unceasing fight for home rule, al
ways fought Tor silver, and always
expect to until it receives the rec
ognition it is entitled to. Because
we have denounced a few bond
steals and other like transactions,
and because we believe every man
and corporation should pay his or
its just amount of taxes for the
maintenance of the government,
If the advocating of these prin.
clples constitutes anarchy, we are
an anarchist of the rankest type.

in consonance with, if not direct

On Tuesday the United States
warship Maine quietly dropped its
anchor in the harbor at Havana,
Cnba. This was in compliance with
the request of Consul General Lee,
whose position and that of the AM
erlcan colony in Havana, were be-
coming very precarious owing to
the bitter hatred which the Spani-
ards have for Americans. 1t s
said that the Maine will be followed
in day or two by number of
our warships, The condition
of affairs in Cuba is critical in the
extreme, for If the mob which has
been controlling Havana should
commit any overt act our sailors
and marines would Immediately
land and take control of the city,
which might involve us in a war
with Spain. Whatever the results
may be, the country will stand by
President Mckinley in doing what
he has done, for he has done right.
