to Manufacture 1t.

Mr.. Robert Thomas, formerly super
intendent of the Glendale Paper Mills,
an enterprise owned and controlled by
S. NJ. Inman and w. A. Hemphlll of
Atlanta, has made what he believes to
be "a great hit in New York City. He

common cotton seed hulls can be made
into paper at about one-half the cost OF
manufacture from wood pulp. Mr..
Thomas has interested leading capt.
talists in the enterprise with the re-
suit that S5,O00,000 company is TO be
organized in Trenton, N. j., for the
purpose of-erectiDg plants in various
parts Of the cotton belt. Paper by
this process will be a great deal cheap
er and the farmers will find the move
ment advantageous to a more ready
disposal of their cotton seed.

The following will gain one each Hi
nois, Louisiana, Minnesota, New Jersey,

American people will gain The whole world

General Walker served notice Of con-
test on w. +. Rhea in Washington on
Tuesday. He charges fraud in all the
counties OF the district, except Tazewell
ard Lee. 1t strikes us that the ballots
used, when made exhibits, will be sufficient
evidence of fraud.
1t is now stated that the Scott county
ballot, or similar ballots, were used in ten
of the fourteen counties of the Ninth Dis
trict. There was not a fair ballot used in
any of the counties. Rhea will have a
nice time defending his educational bal.

gress.
If the Congressional reapportionment
bill is based upon 2OS, ,0OJ population, Vir-
ginia will lose one Congressman, and the
Ninth, District will have to be reformed, as
1t will have an excess of population. The
population, according to the last census is
227 ,95l. Craig county will have to be
eliminated and either Giles or Pulaski.
The Democrats are beginning to find
out that Mark Hanna is something more
than a wonderful political organizer. In
the recent campaign he made his ''mark"

his "mark" as an able debater in the Sem

large brain, aud will become even more
prominent in public life, if his healthaa hoes
not fail.
