FUTURES VS.. COTTON FACTORY

The question of a cotton fac
c tory has been before our peopl
for some time. Two charter
have been published and signed b,
our Governor. AS yet it has beer
impossible under either to secure
stockholders with the necessary
amount Of capital $4,000 to put
either into operation. Other
cities of the State have had very
little diff Guilty in raising double
the amount for the same purpose
and work on many has already
started that their factories may
be in operation for next season.
No place in the state can the cot
ton mill be more proftably locat-
ed than here. 1t will benefit both
the manufacturer and planter.
AS it will mean thousands of dol
lars in few years more to our
city and county. 1t is said to be
as safe an investment as Govern
ment bonds with compress in
come if properly managed, Now
1T is correctly reported that thou
sands of dollars this year has been
made on futures by citizens of our
city. Such earnings it is said, |
never find investments IN enter
prises or improvements as that
earned by the sweat of the brow.
But goes like 1t comes, with the
wind. Whether the statement is
true or not we cannot say. but we
want to urge here upon our lucky
5ownsmen that they start this cot
5on factory movement in the ex-
change by investing at least one
lalf of their earnings in the en-
1t will be enough, we are
old, if all will contribute, to raise
he amount. Those we have APP
'roached on the subject expressed
heir willingness to do so. One
'arty said to get it he would put
Ip $4,000. So start the work !
oday and invest a part of your
lck in an enterprise that will give
york to the poor, build up your
ity and be an honor to its promo $
ers. |

For soma weeks past Eastern maya
zines and newspapers have been devoting
much space to an account Of the destruc-
ton of the famous Muir glacier on the
shores of Glacier bay in Alaska. Not
withdrawing these reports the fact 10
that the great ice bed IL just as broad
and majestic today as before the sullen
earthquake Of last fall. which 10 recited
as the cause of it's crumbling. 1t 10 true
that the earth's trembling shook from or
the face Of the glacier great chunks of
ice, many Of which in themselves repre-
sent huge iceber8s. These to q great ex-
tent have blocked the passage in the bay
in the immediate vicinity Of the face Of
the glacier and for that reason vessels
during the past season have not been able
TO get within good view Of the great phe-
nomenon- Thus II is that 1t has been
taken for granted that the glacier had
been destroyed and its ruin therefore
has been exploited.
As q general rule vessels have not been
able during the past season to get closer
than ten to fifteen miles Of tho glacier.
On August 3 the steamship Queen found
the clearest channel in the bay Of any
this season. On that occasion the Queen
was eos 70 sss aoa n -FOUR ~ m ne wssrs
was had. Among the passengers on that
trip was William E Pearce, of the Pacific
Coast Company. In speaking yesterday OF
the condition in which the glacier was
found, he said:
''The statement that Muir glacier was
seriously damaged by the earthquake Of
year ago II untrue 1t is just as grand
as ever but the trouble this season has
been that vessels have not been able to
get close enough for passengers to SEQ
It. On August We got within four miles
of II and I can say 1t Is the same old
glacier. The earthquake did take on
large masses OF Ice from the face and
these foating In the bay appear as huge
icebergs and block the passage of ves-
sells, but next season the bay will be clear
and the glacier can be approached Just
as In former years. The damage by tho
earthquake 10 but as a drop in the bucket.
or can better explain its work by. say
ing that 1t took on the face probably
fifty feet, while the main body extends
back, visible to the eye, twenty miles.
Tho report OF its destruction IL all
wrong. The glacier extends from It's face
on Glacier bay back to the head OF Da-
wilson glacier which faces on Lynn canal
distance Of forty-five miles. All this
season Muir inlet has been full OF small
bergs so that vessels after proceeding
as far az they can are forced to back
out. On our August trip the surface of
the glacier looked to be from twenty-five
to thirty feet high but in reality II Is
from 100 to 200 feet high. Next year we
win be able to get close to 1t and will
find II Just az large and just as grand
as at any time in its existence"
