Is per cent of the lynchings are tracea-

many more olltrages against colored Wo-

Representatives in Washington, with the
approval OF Iinney, 4 Black-and- VINO
yielded the floor to White in order that
he might make the infamous statement
Senator Pritchard sat near III silent APP
proval. And this is the way that the
white people of the South are represented
by the renegades who get into office ON
the backs of the negro. This is what the
white people of the South have sub
mitted to for So years, with a patience
and self-control that have no parallel in
history. This is a sample of the hellish
sentiments that fill the bosoms of those
who would see their own people sub
merged by wild revel of negro rule, ruin
and rape, the three RS to which the
white men and women of NORTH Carolina
must school themselves.

Ersham People Are Makers of Mill

The J. P. Ershana Machine company Of
Enterprise, Kan, will probably come to
Wichita. The Ersham company does a
large business, repairing and building
machinery. They are the largest firm Of
this kind in the state and their business
extends all over the west and south.
Some time ago the Ersham company
made an offer TO a. Flags for his prop
erty in this city, but the two could not
come together on terms and the matter
fell through The reason the Ersham
company wishes to locate in Wichita is
that two-thirds Of its business comes
from this section of the state and Okla
homa, and Wichita would be the most
central point possible, and besides the
future Of the town is such to attract any
manufacturing or Jobbing concern.

BUILD NEW PLANT
Moore Brothers Buy Ground
for Large Works.
WILL DOUBLE CAPACITY
Hustle of Improvements on
East First Street.

Moore Bros, proprietors Of the Wichita
Stove works, have purchased a plot OF
ground on the corner of First and Santa
Fe streets and will in the near future
move their present building up on it and
then rebuild it and nearly double its
present size. The cost fthe new loca-
ton is stated to be 5000
Moore Bros came here several years
ago and started IN the stove making and
foundry business in 4 small way. They
were hampered for capital and erected
their foundry on leased property. In the
past year their business has grown Won
derfully. Besides doing a heavy business
in stove manufacturing, they have had
all they could do in molding architec-
tural iron work. II became necessary 10
have a larger moldroom and increased
space for their machine room. They de-
cided to purchase their own porperty.
The plot Of ground which was bought
faces on First street on the east side Of
the Santa Fe tracks. The south front OF
the land extends 225 feet It is 200 feet
deep and the rear line is 800 feet long.
Owing TO increasing business, Moore
Bros. have purchased a new and larger
cupola, which will more than double
their capacity. This OF course Will neces-
state the enlargement Of the moldiEg
room. Moore Bros. are thinking OF in
stalling a complete machine shop for do
ing mill machine repairing and manufac-
turing work and 10 that end have pur-
chased a complement of drills, planners,
emery wheels and lathes. Moore Bros
think there is good opening here for a
machine shop capable of doing mill work
as there is no such institution nearer
than Enterprise and St. Joseph, No, and
most OF the work done by these concerns
comes from this section.
Mr.. Moore stated yesterday that his
foundry business had increased wonder
fully in the past year, especially in archi-
tecturai iron work. He stated that he
had enough Of this kind of work on hand
TO Keep his fouRtry running at full ca
pactty for two months, not counting the
manufacturing Of stoves, which takes up
the greater part of the time. Most of
this work is coming from Oklahoma. al
though the foundry has secured the con-
tract for all the iron work necessary in
the new acknowledgement building.
