IN OLD PLANTATION STYLE.
IFrom the Galveaton New. ]

From the Galveston News.
T. W. Thurston is a darby Of old-tirne
ideas, who has charge of q silk mill at
Fayetteville, N c. There are under his
charge over three hundred men, women
and children Of his own race. The mill
has always been noted for the discipline
Of its employees, and a northern news
paper correspondent recently took oc-
casion to investigate and learn the
secret Of Thurston'S success. When
asked how he handled his mill hands
so well, Thurston said that the first
thing necessary in such an institution is
discipline; and then when the ques-
TONER asked If this was obtained by a
system of fines, the answer was: mo.
superintendent says that he accepts no
hands for the mill unless they are given
absolutely into his control for all the
time between in the morning and in
the evening, and, as such authority may
be legally conferred there he is answer
able to no one but himself for what he
does. Light corporal punishment is Of
no avail, in his opinion, so when an en-
ploye is negligent in his work or dis
obeys any Of the ironclad rules, that
employee is taken out and given a. whip
ping. no matter what the sex and no
matter what the age Mr.. Thurston
said:
mo one desires more than I do to see
the condition of my people improved;
but l have no false ideas as to the pres
ent condition of a majority Of them.
They lack sense or responsibility ana
are like children where money is con-
cerned That must be kept in view when
dealing with them. My methods may be
decried by humanitarians, but I am
proving their success and believe that
some of those boys / am bringing up
here will in turn prove means Of for
warding the industrial advancement Of
the coIored race"
It seems that the Thurston motto is
spare the rod and spoil the hand If the
ri ic FIRM IA have for him
great respect and do not stop to muir
muir when he says 50.
