Miss Henrietta Aiken Kelly Is writ
ing to Governor McSweeney in the hope
of arousing interest in silk culture
experiment in the south. Her plan is
to get North Carolina, South Carolina
and Georgia to cooperate, and to also
ask for an appropriation from the ma
tional government. She reminds the
governor of the experience Of a north
ern association that made an attempt
along the same line and failed, not
withstanding the expenditure of $780,
600 of its own funds and $5O,00O appro-
priated by the government. She Is very
well satisfied that the trouble was due
principally to the unsuitableness of the
northern climate, and believes that a
fair trial of the industry in the states
of North Carolina, South Carolina and
Georgia would be bound to succeed.
The subject is interesting and Is well
worthy Of an honest trial.

Bursting of the Bubble.

The Charlotte Observer publishes the
following editorial statement in its is
sue of last Sunday:
Some weeks ago we were printing
daily advertisements from different Ia
dies offering ladies steady employment
at $50 per month to do writing. These
advertisements came from ladies whom
II was known meant no wrong, and re-
mittances to cover the cost Of their in
sertion accompanying themr there was
no reason why they should not be
printed; yet the question frequently
went around the office, Where does the
swindle come in?" for it was realized
that the world Is full Of women who
would jump at the chance to do writing
at home for half the money offered, and
that this thing was too good to be true.
These advertisements were traced
through their senders to the Amos
Owens Cherry Tree company, Of Hen
rietta, Rutherford county, which has
been doing a land office business In
in this state, according to plan which
is outlined in an article copied in this
paper from the Yorkville, S. c., EN-
oUIRER. Until, however, the scheme
had been fully developed and there was
an undoubted basis Of fact to rest an
accusation upon, we did not feel war
ranted in uttering warning to the
readers of The Observer against this
enterprise; but now ladies who have
sent their $12 apiece to the company
and have received none of the promised
work, are clamoring for the return or
their money, and we have sufficient ev-
idence to justify us in saying that this
Is a good thing to let alone. Mean
t,ar o1or
ship again, for the third or fourth time,
and has transferred its base Of opera
tions from Henrietta to Ellenboro, and
1t will not be long now until the bub-
BILE bursts.
The experience Of The ENQUIRER In
this matter has been about described
by The Observer. Advertisements ten
dered by different well-known ladies
were accepted and published without
until several weeks after the receipt of
the first advertisement, that we got in
formation as to the nature of the bus
mess that was being promoted. The
first intimations came through various
exchanges, and finally we were able to
get possession of copies Of the letters
the ladies were being employed to
write. We very much regret our fail
ure to expose the whole thing earlier;
but now that the nature Of the business
has been made so clear, 1t is to be hoped
that no other individuals in this Sec
ton will allow themselves to be victim
lied.
