Sheriff c. NJ. Mcdowell and Mr.. J.
W. Garrison have about completed an
undertaking that most critics said was

the Catawba river just below the iron
bridge: and men who are competent to
judge say it will prove a success.
They have also cut d race $50 feet long.
which will give them a force equal to
five hundred horse power. They will
at once begin the erection of a roller
Touring mill on an extensive scale.
Their mill will only require thirty
horse power, leaving a suplus of four
hundred and seventy horse power. A
manufacturing company is already
negotiating for three hundred horse
power, which still leaves a surplus of
one hundred and seventy horse power.

These men deserve much credit for
their pluck and energy, especially
when we consider tie obstacles thew

enterprises, there are men narrow

But every good citizen will lend a help

IMPORTANT DEAL
Heald Copper Mine Taken Hold of by
BUstunians.
TOOK A WORKING BOND
win Develop the Property Extensively this
Winter-Two Shifts to be Put on at Once.
Statesman:

Statesman:
A deal has been closed that means
the extensive development of the
Head copper mine in the Ruthburg
district, which has been popularity
supposed to be in the Seven Devils
but which is not, being, however, a
portion of the great copper belt that
extends through Washington county.
The firm of Armstrong & Co. Of
Boston, has taken working bond
on the property. The deal was put
through by Mr.. Hathaway, who is a
member of the company. The con-
siderstion is not made public, but if
the Boston company's developments
disclose what is promised, the owners
of the mine will be on easy street.
Rumor fixes the consideration at
800, 600, but those interested de-
cline to make any statement regard
ing the terms.
Mr.. Hathaway will at once put q
large force of men to work on the
Heald He will work the property
two shifts, his idea being to develop
it for all it is worth before spring.
The ledge of the Heald has beer
cut at depth of over 200 feet from
the surface The ledge is phenom
enally wide but the best ore is sever
to ten feet in width The mine Il
unquestionably the best in the dis
trict, and persons who have exam
med it place it side by side with tn
best copper properties in the Sevel
Devils. One of the best known cop
per experts of Montana examined th
Heald not long ago, and his repor
was of very favorable character.
The Heald mine is owned by Ere

The Color Line in Baltimore.

Since the republicans have been in
control of the municipal government
of Baltimore the negro has given q
great deal of trouble and the whites
have determined to no longer tolerate
the state of affairs that has existed.
When Professor Guy Carlton Lee, the
correspondent of The Baltimore Sun,
was here in November he told us that
the color line would be drawn in the
Monumental City when the municipal
campaign came on, and we see that
he knew what he was talking about.
The following is from yesterdays
Charlotte Observer:
1.-The municipal campaign now in
progress in Baltimore, is a very warm
one. The issue is the same as that
upon which the last campaign was
fought and won in this state--white
supremacy. Under republican rule
Baltimore has had trouble with the
negro. That city has had taste of
what southern communities have en-
dured and is rebelllng against it.
