The entertainment provided was

AN EXAMPLE IN COTTON MILLS

On October 1st the Board O.
Trade will meet to reorganize ant
consider a plan of action for the
good of the city during the sue
ceeding year. Among the pro
iects to increase the prosperity
of the community the first is east
Iy the establishment of cotton
factory; and in order to accomp-
lish this object it is necessary to
get rid, first, Of the idea that it is
an undertaking which requires a
vast outlay of capital at the be-
ginning, and must necessarily be
great mill erected at cost of
one, two or three hundred thous-
and dollars.
GreenvilIe is supported almost
entirely by agriculture. She has
her oil mills, congresses, and
other manufacturing concerns,
but they are not numerous enough
to furnish subsistence to the large
class of working people who are
the bone and sinew of the com
munity. If GreenviIle is to he a
city it must have something be-
side its commercial concerns, and
its oil mills in which there is no
place for white labor. 1t cannot
live and grow on merchandising
alone. The farmers cannot dig
enough out of the ground to main
tain it. The business OF trade
mere bargain and sale-is over
done, as is demonstrated by the |
numbers Of empty stor9 houses
to be seen. Greenvilleis not alone |
in this respect. The same condi- |
tons apply to almost every town
of any size in Mississippi, and
mostof them are striving to Sc
cure at least one cotton mill as
The best remedy for the growing
evil.
1t Is not necessary that Il mill
should cost $500, LOCO, or even $780,
100. Some of the most success
I'll mills in North Carolina com
nenced work on Il capital of from
20, O00 to $4,000.
The Ada mil, one Of the best
nown and most prosperous in !

applicant for the place on the SUI
preme court bench, to be made

Judge Wynn is a close personal
friend of Gov. elect Longino, rnd
the fact Of his applying for a
iudgeship will place the new gov
ernor in delicate position. With
such men as Woods, Calhoun,
Alexander. and Wynn applying
for the place, all men and jurIsts
of the highest stamp, it is easy to
see where the difficulties of the
chief executive, charged with APP
polntiye power, come in. We be
lieye that Judge Longino will rise

ter and name the man who, in his
judgment, will best serve the
