speaking OF the former president OF
these mills, it is evident that tn,
opportunity afforded by the troubl,
was gladly seized to say something
detrimental of the president. 1t is
always advisable first to get the true
and authentic facts before giving
out anything to the public. AT
this day and time truth travels very
slowly, and is as sadly unappreci-
atcd as prosy recital; therefore
some newspapers cater to the vita
ted taste of the common rabble
rather than to the better class OF

UNJUST CR!TICISM.

Like the assassin with ever ready
dagger the Grccnvillc News and one
or two other newspapers would stab
with unauthcntic statements in
their columns and further indulge
in unjust and unwarrantablc edito-
rial comment and criticism upon
the troubles of the Union and Buf-
falo Cotton Mills, so far as their
power of cXaggcration could go to
cripple these industries. With
double deck, horse heads, headlines,
flaming, Haunting, sensational an
nounccmcnts such as the duncan
mills flooded with debts" Give
millions is the approximate loss, "
Mr.. Duncan plunging,' all of
which was without foundation, in
fact; but these papers seem to catch
at every floating rumor, magnify
and enlarge upon to such an extent
as to mislcad as to the true cor dition
OF affairs. With seeming ecstacy of
JOY were these statements and cdi-
tOrlals pcnncd, no attempt being
made to conceal the real pleasure it
gave the writer. The Grccnville
News took Col. Duncan to task
when he reduced the work hours of
the mill from / to 10 and in the
same spirit of ccnsurc this paper
calls the Union and Buffalo mills
the Duncan Mills and heaps upon
the president all of the Unnecessary
ccnsurc that could be crowded in
the same space. There are no
Grccnville stockholders in either of
these mills, nobody in Greenville
has suffered, therefore, the News
need not get frantic over the situa-
ton here. The Greenville News
was the first and only paper to dis
courage and attempt to throw Il
dampcr upon the Southern Cotton
Association, and advise the farmers
to sell to the Grecnvillc mills all of
their cotton at the prices fixed by
mill combination. The same spirit
seems to prevail with this paper to
give the gloomicst and most damag-
ing account of the Union and Buf-
falo mills and from the manner Of

1t is the startling and alarming
history of the automobile since it

tate travel than any other thing ever

is absolutely no beauty in any one

horses arc accustomed to meeting

Strong and Eloquent Sermon.

Last Sunday morning at the First
Presbyterian church DR.. A. G.
Wardlaw, pastor, delivered one of
the most eloquent and powerful
sermons that has ever been heard
from the sacred desk. His text
was from Mathew, 18th chapter,
18th verse: And I say unto you,
That thou art Peter, and upon this
rock | will build my church, and
the gates of hell shall not prevail
against it. Upon this assertion
rests the hopes and assurance of
the establishment of the Christian
church and the foundation of the
kingdom OF God on earth, evolving
from the church militant to the
church triumphant. The subject
being the true church, DR., Ward
law said in part: THE church is
an organization with delegated
power in which the pure word of
God is preached and the sacraments
duly administered. Christ is the
head of the church. In the synop-
lists the idea of kingdom is clearly
presented the greatest good to the
greatest number. In the gospel of
John the chief conception is that of
the greatest good to the individual,
that is eternal life. In the militant
church there must be government,
a visible kingdom. All government
depends upon three things. First,
Unity OF purpose. Second, Pure
administration, which includes
pure ministry, righteous discipline
and pure church membership.
Third, Loyalty to the King. Loyal
subjects, such as will not desert the
cause, even though called upon to
make sacrifices. 1t was sacrifices
that the Christ established his king
dom. The church's success depends
on the vigorous preaching of the
word, the simple truth as it is i'm
Christ Jesus. The church will tri-
umph because truth is indestructi-
BILE. Right will not always he on
the scaffold and wrong on the
throne. The walls of Zion shall
stand forever. The gates of hell
shall not prevail against it."
Each of the foregoing points were
most beautifully, forcibly and con-
vincingly elaborated upon. He
scared among the stars, heavens
literature, who are ever eloquent in
their appeal to man for the worship
OF their creator. The establishment
OF Gods kingdom on earth through
the instrumentality of the church

he said, Upon this rock | will
build my church and the gates of
hell shall not prevail against it,"
