For a long time there has been talk
about the manufacture of shoes IN Sa-
vannah. Last year it was heard, ana
this year also it is repeated. The best
opinion seems to be, however, that
shoes will not be made here soon. Con-
ditions such as have existed among
the Eastern shoe manufacturers OF late
are calculated to discourage the IN
dustry, which, If undertaken, would be
largely experimental. Probably the
largest boot and shoe jobber in SaVan-
nah was asked his opinion as to the
probability of establishing shoe FAC
tory in the South and while he thinks
it would be feasible, under certain
conditions, he does not by any means
regard it as an early probability. one
Savannah factory is making shoes now.
This factory is owned by e. /. Okarma.
The business has been successful, and
at least demonstrates the practicable
ity of making shoes here upon a small
scale. Some urge that if the business
can be made successful on small
scale it can be made equally so on a
large scale, so tndJ IL SUN Ielltliii
for the nerVy capitalist to come for
ward and launch this industry.
Savannah's boot and shoe trade eX-
tends into North and South Carolina,
Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mis-
sissippi. Local jobbers also sell shoes
in Louisiana. This may be of inter-
est to dealers in other sections who
compete with local jobbers, and sell
goods around Savannah. 1t is claimed
while they sell in Savannah's territory,
local jobbers are at the same time
selling in other territory than their
own. A canvass of the local trade dis
closes thorough satisfaction with the
years business, and they are conf
dent of Savannah's steady growing
and assuming the importance OF a
much larger jobbing center.

$1.25O,OOO.
One year ago Savannah was shoeing
a large territory in the South Atlantic
States, and for the year just closed To-
cal boot and shoe jobbers have shod as
many persons as they have previously
and many more besides. From every
standpoint it has been a year of ag-
gression with them, and they have
record for their department of local
trade to which they may point with
pride.
Every season large corps of travel
ing men start in every direction from
Savannah in the interest of local boot
and shoe dealers. One house alone trav-
els fifteen men, and others have
knights of the grip" representing
them in proportion. The annual bust
ness done py local houses is conserVa-
lively estimated at $1,250,000.
The general prosperity which has pre-
vailed all through the cotton states dur

All fall contracts have been placed. The

About Wood Turpentine.

Much has already been heard this
season about wood turpentine, the
product of pine stumps and pine knots,
This product may be in demand, but
many of the Savannah trade assert
that it has received black eye" in
going up against pure turpentine. The
controllers Of the marketing of this
product seem to have pursued the pol
icy OF endeavoring to substitute it for
pure turpentine instead of making 1t.
as the trade believe they should, a
separate and distinct product, to stand
upon its own merits. The result was
that legislation sprung UP right off.
The Florida Legislature passed a pure
turpentine law, and then the Georgia
Legislature did the same thing. The
gist OF this legislation is that it shall
be unlawful and punishable by a Sc
we're penalty to pack wood turpentine
for pure turpentine; II must be labeled
exactly what II Is, and the contents OF
the barrels must be honestly stated.
The object Of the law is the protection
OF operators whose products would suf-

INDIAN YARNS
BY PIONEER
Old Timer Recalls a Rarid Made
in the Comanche Country
by a Navajo Chief.
WERE AVOWED ENEMIES
Peculiar and Mysterious Operations
That We're Charged to Government
Agents Of Navajos,

"It was in the days of the pioneer"
said the Old Timer, that deeds of per-
sonal valor were of more or less an
every day occurrence. | remember
away back in the sixties there was a
Navajo known by the name of Pedro
who went alone into the Commanche
country and made raid upon the
camp of his avowed enemies. This
Navajo selected ten of the best horses
from the Commanche drove and sue
ceeded in bringing them across the
| plain and mountain to his native
heath. The distance covered was
about four hundred miles and this
markable feat was performed sing
handed by the redoubtable Navajo
But while Pedro was hailed with al
acclaim and accorded every mark Of
distinction known among the Indians
because of the exhibition of his prow-
ess, he was not alone among the brave
members of his tribe. There was an
other Navajo chief, named ManuelitO.
who possessed probably a greater in
fluence over his tribesmen than any
other Manuelito was an orator born.
His power over the Navajos was one
of the remarkable features of Indian
life in his time. Tall and majectic,
with the eloquence of Clay or Web
ster, he could command the attention
of a council, then sway the people at
will. His popularity was unbounded
and his position in disputes, either
among the people of his tribe or with
outsiders was always that of an advo-
cate and spokesman for his people,
He was a shrewd man, and carried his
points we'll If there was a dispute

reSentatives of the reservation the
persuasive eloquence of Manuelito was
not exercised in vain for he generally
got what he wanted. Manuelito had
nine wives, but of course, that was
only another evidence of, how favor
ably he was regarded by the Navajos
and especially the squaws.
And speaking of this. reminds me
chat while the Indian is generally re-
garded as stoical he is just about as
susceptible to the tender passions as
is the rest of mankind. There is an
endless record of daring feats that
have been performed by the earnest
wooer that he alone might have the
