GETTING MILL STATISTICS.
MIR. NJ. l.. Shipman Tells of His Visit
to Western Carolina and of Excel
lent Conditions he Finds.

Assistant Commissioner Shipman
of the Bureau of Labor and Printing
returned to the city yesterday morn
ing from Mecklenburg and CASTOR
counties, where he has been the past
week collecting statistics from the cot
ton mills and miscellaneous factories
He speaks very pleasantly of the trip
and says, as a rule, the mill men are
u clever class of gentlemen" and
showed him every courtesy. Nearly
every one to whom | applied for in
formation" said Mr.. Shipman gave
it willingly and assure me that they
were glad to do SO, as they wanted
our report to make the best possible
showing for the manufacturing in
dustry of the State"
Did you learn anything new con-
corning the condition ot mill opera
tiVes asked the reporter.
Cant say that l did responded
the Assistant Commissioner. One
thing l know and that is that they
are, apparently, the happiest lot of
folks with whom | ever came in con-
tact. Work hard and enjoy their
earnings to the fullest extent Plenty
to eat and good clothes to wear.
Everyone seemed gay and happy as a
lark"
Mr.. Shipman visited Charlotte. Bel
mont. McAdenville, Lowell. Bessemer
City, Kings Mountain and Gastonia.
He says the new cotton crop is be-
ing rapidly placed upon the market
at 10 cents and the farmers are swell
ing their bank accounts right along.
When the small crops have been dis
posed of, it is the consensus of opin-
ion that the price will advance to
the figure named by the Cotton Grow
erS Association recently at the meet
ing i'm Ashevile. 1.-The farmers OF
Mecklenburg and CASTOR" said Mr..
Shipman. ARE said to be lenders in
stead of borrowers of money and !
am inclined to believe the story. They
appear, also to be contented and
happy I saw many of them bringing
in cotton at the various places L Wis
tied"
1t is the purpose of the department
to secure statistics from all the manu-
featuring enterprises of the State and
frequent trips will be made to various
sections until all desired information
is secured. North Carolina is fast
becoming one of the foremost States
in the South along industrial lines
and this feature of her Industries can
rot be neglected without doing her
distinct injury.

RATES REDUCED
Railroad Commission Sc.
cures Better Freight
Rates.

Without attempting the assumption
of power to fix the rates of freight
on Interstate shipments the Corpora:
ton Commission has for sometime
been working persistently with the va
rious railroads with a view. of recon
Cling certain harmful determinations
against central North Carolina points
in favor of the distributing points"

In their efforts the commission has
Just announced that they have been
partially successful in the matter OF
obtaining d reduction ranging from 3
cents per hundred pounds on 9Th,
"C'' and 80" class freights on ship

AsheviIle. Under the new schedule
the city of Asheviile will be relieved
of the burden of discrimination which
she has suffered to some extent and,
on western goods, her merchants Will
be enabled to serve the contiguous
points which by their location should
be tributary to the city's business.
The cases of Greensboro and High
Point. which are grossly discrimi-
mated against in favor of Lynchburg,
are still occupying the attention of the
Commission and are under discussion
with the Southern Railway.
The actual reductions on western
freights for Asheville which have been
secured are as follows
On first-ciass sc per 100 or to 99'
On second class cts per 100 or to SIC
