PANTS FACTORY IS PROPOSED
If Taxation Not Too High Americas
Nav Have One.

A factory for the making OF pants,
shirts and overalls for working men,
and giving employment to twenty i've
people, will be established in Americas,
if the projectors do not think tax rates
are too high.
The matter is now being Investigated
with that end in view.
If the enterprise is established, the
location will be a central one. A
brick building will be purchased by
the company for the double purpose
of factory and salesroom.
II is proposed to put in a dozen or
fifteen sewing machines, operated by
motor power. Special orders for gar
ments will be taken and these will be
made up in the best style by home
help and sold at close figures.
Beyond doubt such an enterprise
would pay very well.
Enormous quantities of overalls are
sold here annually to working people
all of which are made in northern mar
kets. They could be made up here
just as well, the money kept at home
and home people employed.
It is hoped that this Will be addeC
to Americus' list of enterprises yer!
shortly.

OF Virginia is a breeding ground of
Malaria germs. So is low, wet or marshy

weakness, chills and fever, aches in the
bones and muscles, and may induce dan
gerous maladies. But Electric Bitters

larial troubles. They will surely pre-
vent typhoid. "We tried many remedies

PRESSES CLOSE FOR SEASON
Only Four Are Now Being Operated
By Combine.

The Americas compress, along with
some twenty others operated by the
Atlantic Compress Go. has been closed
down for the season. Only four presses,
those at Augusta, Savannah, Mont
gomery and Pensacola remain open,
and these will probably be closed
shortly. It seems that the congresses
closed because the company had in
sight only enough cotton to keep four
congresses running, and it was econo-
my to shut down the others, AS rule
the congresses do not close before
about the middle or the last of April,
and frequently not until May. Up to
this date the Americas press has hand
led about go, 900 bales cotton for the
season. There are still in the ware
houses here some 600 or roo bales,
which may have to be shipped uncom-
pressed.

CANDIDATE IS QUITE HELPFUL.
Farmers Lose No Time In Hearing
His Little Song.

The Times Recorder hears of one
candidate whose far-seeing ingenuity
and consideration for the toiIing far
mer entities him to high seat in the
courthouse for term of two years.
In canvassing the country districts
this candidate carries along as driver
an able-bodied negro, and while tel
ling the farmer his little tale of woe
makes the negro keep the farmers
pillow going in the field. Thus the
farmer and the candidate ENJOY an
hours social chat in the fence corner
while Cuff and old Kit hit it down the
cotton rows. If this candidate will also
work the town with jug attachment
his overwhelming election is assured.

CONGRESSMAN OTEY DEAD.

Major Peter j. Otey. Representa-
tive in Congress from the Sixth Dis
trict of Virginia, died at his home
in Lynchburg, Va, Sunday. Tues
day Major Otey went to Lynchburg
from Washington for the purpose of
consulting his physician. For two
years or more he had suffered with a
severe heart trouble, which was CON-
plicated with diabetes, but on his
arrival home his condition did not
seem to be any worse than usual,
and his relatives were not more anx-
ious about him than they had been
for some time past. On Friday
night, however, there was a sudden
change in his symptoms, and from
that hour it was feared that the end
was approaching.
Major Otey's term would have
ended March 3rd, 1908. The cleo
ton will take place in November
next, and the primary has already
been set for July Goth. Had Major
Otey lived he would have had no
opposition this fall, but his death
opens the way for one of the liveliest
battles fought in the district IN
many years.
The name most frequently heard
In connection with Major Otey's
probable successor is that of State
Senator Carter Glass, of Lynchburg.
Senator Clayton, of Bedford, is
looked upon as quite a formidable
candidate, and Senator W.. p. Barks-
dale, of Halifax, will no doubt make
his announcement in few DAYS.
Radford has probable candidate
in the person of her corporation
judge, Hon. George E. Cassel. Secre-
tary of the Commonwealth. ID. O.
Eggleston, of Charlotte; Hon. John
Goode, of Bedford; Judge William
Gordon Robertson and Mr.. w. A.
Glasgow, of Roanoke, are among the
possibilities, and whatever may be
the result a lively race is anticipated.
