The borax for which Americans
pay Il cents per pound is sold to the
EngIishman at 3! cents per pound,
yet, says the Louisville Courier
Journal, "there are those who say
that the tariff has nothing to do
with trusts. Without the tariff
borax would sell as Cheaply here as
in England, and it is fact that the
American producers boosted many
years ago that they could produce
it more cheaply than anywhere else
IN the world, and they probably told
the truth then"

THE VALUE OF COTTON MILLS.

The cotton mills in operation in
the states of North and South Car
DINA will use this season an amount
of cotton equal to the crops grown
by those states. These mills buying
the cotton direct from the farmer,
have been strong factors 10 keeping
up prices. In fact, the farmers of
the Carolinas and Geor Iia have re-
ceived better prices for their cotton
on this account, than those of any
other portion of the South, selling
directly to the mills, they have saw
ed the usual expenses for freight,
COMPRISING, commissions aud in
surance, which amounts to scarcely
less than one cent a pound. 1t is a
matter for cougratulation that
more of the South's great staple
crop is being manufactured at home
every year. In the nature of things
the time will come when by far
the greater part of it will leave the
South iu manufactured form. This
is one industry the East must yield
to us, as, indeed, it has already be-
gun to do. All the new mills being
constructed are confined to the
Soth; but, somehow, Arkansas does
not seem to be getting her share of

dead:
AMOS S. Lands. Grapeville. Pa.

MISS MILLS, his daughter, cut by glass
while breaking through the window to es-
cape
WILLIAM GARRETTSON, ClearfeId,
Pa, delegate to miners national convention,
painfully burned about back and hips.
The fire originated on the second floor
from an explosion of gas and within a few
moments the building was mass of flames
and binding smoke. The noise of the eX-
plosion awakened most of the guests, about
twenty in number and a panic ensued.
Robert N. Thompson, of Kalamazoo, Mich,
Il salesman for the Cadillac Lumber Com
pany, was the means of saving at least six
lives In the first moments after the ex-
plosion he rushed into the hallway of the
second floor and stumbled over the uncon-
SclOus form of a woman, whom he dragged
into che reception room. Five others, three
men and two women. who had been turned
back from the stairway by the flames, were
Shrieking and fighting for some exit.
Thompson forced them all into the big room
and locked the door Knowing that it meant
death to go into the hall, he fought the. des-
perate men back until the arrival of the
firemen, when all were rescued. The hotel
is completely Quilted.
