take the place of hydrogen for the

We have never been as bitterly
opposed to JEFF Davis as some of our
contemporaries have been. In fact
we have not opposed him at all and
shall not do so; but we can't help
thinking that it is a sad spectacle
to see such a tried and true patriot,
soldier and democrat as John G.
Fletcher so ruthlessly deserted by
his old friends for a man like Davis,
But such is fate and this is only
another instance that shows that
"Republics are ungrateful." But
few men have done more for the
state and democratic party than
John G. Fletcher; yet he has COM
mitted the sin of accommodating some
wealth, and though no one ever ac-
cused him of getting it dishonesty.

THE COTTON FACTORY A SURETY.
The Monisd Men of Our City Tho
roughly Aroused to the Need Of
Factories,

For a long time this paper has
agitated the subject of cotton fac
tories not only for the south but
for our home city has labored to
work up an interest in this direc-
ton.
We are happy now to say that
the seed we, With others, have
planted have sprouted, with promise
to mature.
Last night at the West Side city
hall, a representative citizenship
gathered, to hear Mr.. H. H. Har-
grove, lecture ON cotton factories.
Mr.. Hargrove came here by invita-
tion, which fact shows that our
people have become thoroughly
convinced that a cotton factory
would be splendid investment for
our city, and would be the neuclus
around which other factories would
spring.
The speaker was introduced to the
audience by Mr.. Henry Moore, in
neat little speech.
Mr.. Hargrove, after compliment
ing his audience and the city and
the surrounding country, branched
off to tell what he knew and what he
had learned about cotton factories
since he started out to make them
study. In his talk he showed that
Massachusetts, the leading state in
cotton factories as to the number
of sprindles. was farthest removed
from the cotton zone. He showed
that these manufactures bought
our cotton, paid the freight on it to
the bleak, rock bound coast, where
most of the factories are situated,
manufactured the raw material, re-
shipped it to the producer and made
big profit on every pound of the
raw material woven into cloth.
| He spoke of the awakening" in
some parts of the south, where cot
ton factories we're being established
and the enormous profits made, and
the benefits therefrom to the people
living in the radius of the same. His
arguments we're all good, sensible,
and not overdrawn, and we think
his talk here means that we are to
raise a hundred thousand or more
dollars, and have a factory running
before a great while. After he had
entertained his audience for an hour
or more, he said he would answer
any questions asked him. He was
kept busy for time in being in
terrogated as to the cost of ma
chinery, building, the number of
acres for a site, the amount of
capital required to be on hand to
pay for raw material, ETC., which he
answered satisfactory to the ques-
TONERS.
After the speaking, Mr.. Henry
Moore was called to the chair and
Ben M. Foreman was chosen secre-
tary,
Mr. Moore made a short talk, as
to the great need of this city in
having a cotton factory, and called
on Mr.. j. w. Buchanan who also
spoke in favor of factories Others
followed after which a call from
those present was made as to the
amount of stock each would take
then, as the meeting should have a
necules to work upon,
Mr.. B. Nj. Foreman was the first
to put down his name after which
several others followed, the list and
amounts standing as follows;

JOB FOR A CONGRESSMAN.

The political "sagacity" Of Mr..
Mckinley is shown by his appoint
ment last week OF Marion De Vries,
the only Democratic Congressman
from California, to q life position on
the Board Of Appraisers at New
York. The salary is $500 per an
mum, and Mr.. DeVries has resigned
his seat in Congress to enter upon
the duties of his new Office. Accord
ing to civil service rules the vacancy
had to be filled by a Democrat, and
Mr.. Mckinley selected the Califor-
mia Congressman, thinking that on
account of the immense amount OF
money left in that State on account
of the war, his successor would prob
ably be a Republican. And there
will be a scarcity of Republicans in
the next House of Representatives.
