Cotton Mill Which Breaks All
Records.

The Charlotte News says that
one of the phenomenally success.
full Southern mills Is the Trenton
mill at Gastonia, which ust
closed its fifth year of existence.
The dividends Of the previous
four years amount to 70 per cent.
of the capital stock invested, and
this year a dividend Of 30 per
cent was declared, showing that
the mill has actually paid for IT.
self by its earnings in five years.
Besides this there is a surplus of
$4,000 on hand. This is a re-
markable record, and can hardly
be equalled by any other mill in
this section. During these five
years every single dividend has
been paid cash.

in the statement that has been
going the rounds of the press to
the effect that Senator Tillman
and General Butler had entered
into an agreement or combination
to defeat Senator McLaurin for

McLaurin as his term expires in

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There Is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is hy constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused hy an
lnflamed condition of the Mucous lin
ing OF the EuStaChian Tube. when
this tube is intlamrd you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be- taken ont and this tube restored
TO its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out Of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inilamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

MANSLAYER REFUSED BAIL.
New Afiidavits Offered to Prove
that the Man Who Killed an
Alleged Constable Should be
Held.

Greenvile News.
Columbia, S. c., April 12.-
Judge Wattsthis afternoon re-
fused to grant bail to w. H.
Meetze. The prosecution intro
duced two additional affidavits,
one of them made by white man
named Jeffcoat, in which he says
that he was standing within a few
PAGES Of the man and that Meetze
had started the quarrel by anger
ing Cartledge, and when some
one cried out "shoot him." Meetze
began to fire and not until he had
fired did Cartledge advance, and
then he was trying to grab the
pistol. Cartledge had neither a
pistol nor pair of knucks.
The other affidavit, by Mr..
Powell, was to the effect that the
bottle of whiskey which had been
found in Cartledge's pocket was
furnished to the physician by a
bystander in order that he might
inject it into the breast of Cart
ledge. which he did several times,
and that the bottle was last seen
| by him in the hands of a police
man.
Solicitor Thurmond and Mr..
Johnstone argued that the tes-
timony would lead any dispassion-
ate mind to conclude that MUIR
der had probably been committed
and that the prisoner was not
entitled to bail Mr.. Nelson held
that there had been no evidence
of murder, and even if his client
was guilty of manslaughter he
would be entitled to bail. In the
course of one of his flights of
oratory he referred to Colonel
Johnstone as "hounding down"
the prisoner and Mr.. Johnstone
promptly denied him the right to
use such language and insisted
that he do not. Mr.. Nelson said
the case had gotten down to be
one of persecution and not of
prosecution. He and Johnstone
had a lively spat with some talk
about settling outside, but only a
court row."
Judge Watts said that if he
considered the evidence given
before the jury alone he would
grant bail, but in view of the af,
fidavits he would refuse it with,
out prejudice to the case.

Notes and Comments.

If there is anything that makes
me tired it is to see people, and
especially Southern people, get
down and rub their foreheads in
the dust whenever they see "the
flag" whether the flag is where it
ought to be or not.
1t is the citizens duty to res
pect the flag-it is his duty to de-
fend it with his life's blood, If
need be; but if some misguided
one in authority puts it where it
has no business to be, or attempts
to use it for wrongful or illegiti.
mate purposes, then it is the citi-
zens duty, instead of taking off
his hat and cheering it. to do his
little part toward having it re-
stored to It's proper place and pur.
pose. He shouldn't allow any
body else TO do it-any other gov
ernment, whether Filipino, Ger
man, English or W hat not. to lay
hands on it; but he should have
his own government to do it. In
being raised over territory ten
thousand miles away, and in fly
ing over soldiers slaughtering
people fighting for liberty-a
thing above all others the Stars
ard Stripes stand for-fighting a
people who never did and never
wanted to do US any harm-can
anybody say this is putting the
flag to a Legitimate use?
"There is not a more dlsgraceful
and damnable chapter IN the his
tory Of this country than the
story Of the Philippine war"
