The Oil Mill.

The auditing committee Of the
Aberdeen Oil Mill and Fertilizer
Work have not fully completed
their labors in that behalf. being
interrupted by pressing business
matters Of a private character.
This work will be completed, how
ever, and a full report made to a
meeting Of the directors to be called
at an early day, possibly the first
of June. Sufficient information has
been developed to give assurance Of
a satisfactory and prosperous cOndi-
ton of affairs, considering that ac-
tive operations were not commenced
until late in the season when the
supply of seed was practically ex-
hausted.
This mammonth plant cost its
stockholders $50, 900, and there re-
mains a deficit Of S2S. 900 after APP
plying $50, 900 Of subscriptions to
the purchase price. This we IN
derstand is proposed to be met by
the stockholders subscribing for this
remaining amount by increasing
their present holdings to the extent
of fifty per cent or more, and there
is not a better investment to be
found anywhere.
The matter Of establishing a large
ginning establishment to the oil
mill plant is also under discussion,
which can be done by the expendi- |
ture of about six thousand dollars,
since the motive power, grounds,
etc, are already in hand. 1t is con-
tended in well informed quarters
that the ginning and pressing facil-
tiles of Aberdeen are inadequate
and that the city suffered greatly
from that cause last season. This
matter will Of course be discussed
at the early meeting, and if any
steps are to be taken there is no
time to be lost.

EDITOR ABERDEEN WEEKLY:
The Weekly is a pleasant visitor to
our home every week, and we are
glad to get it as it comes from our
old Monroe county home. We like to
see what the people of old Monroe
are doing. 1t seems from the list of
candidates that there might be live
~ time in the old county this year.
A word about our Texas home will
not be amiss: The town of Karnes
CITY has six business houses; three
hotels; three churches; two banks;
three gins; two barber shops; two
meat markets; a nice two-story brick
school house which cost the county
$4,000, withabout 200 students attend
ing the school; good court house
and Jail.
Land in this neighborhood is worth
$40 to $40 per acre. We now have
the finest prospect for corn
crop we have ever had at this
time Of the year. Some corn is about
in roasting ear. Cotton is not doing
wen too much cold, wet weather on
il.
We like Karnes county Wen enough
to make it our future home. Would
be glad to see more Mississippi folks
ont here, there is plenty of room for
more. We have all kinds of people
out anything from a Mexican
Greaser up.
We were glad to see Mr.. W NJ
Gideon's letter in the Weekly, we
were scboolmates at Center Point,
and also pleased to know that Miss
Beulah Sharpe taught a good school
at that place.
Wishing the Editor success,

The School Tax Election.

Tuesday was a rainy and disa-
greeable day, which probably ac-
counts for a light vote at all the
precincts, on the proposed two-mill
special tax for better rural school
purposes. The returns were not
canvassed early enough Thursday
for definite report in this issue, but
it is conceded that the proposition
was lost by a majority of something
over a hundred votes.

tarrh was thought to be blood disease
and stomach dosing the only treatment.
Modern science finally disproved this idea
of the cause of catarrh, and found that it
was germ disease and, after many ex-
pefiments, the remedy was decided to be
Hvomei.
Hyomei medicates the air you breathe !;
it kills the catarrhal germs: it heals the
smarting and raw membranes of the
passages In the nose and throat; it curs 9
all catarrhal troubles.
As there is life and health N the air in
the mountain-tops where the pine forests
give off their fragrant and healing ball
sans, so there is life and health in breath
ing Hyomei. There is no need of suffer
ing from catarrh if the simple and natural
treatment ef Hyomei is used.
So sure is this prescription to cure even
the worst cases of catarrh, that Graham
& Wells sell 1t under an absolute guaran-
tee to refund the money If it does nos DO
all that is claimed for it. SO 81

a legally proclaimed holiday of
five days duration was absolute
ly necessary financial sine
qua non.
The governor granted their
request. They returned to Port
land, observed one day of the
holiday then opened their doors
for the transaction of business.
It is plain that one was all the
time they needed to adopt the
Clearing House method of con-
ducting banking business already
inaugurated at New York. The
remaining four days Of the holi-
day were not needed by the
banks and were of no benefit
whatever to them. But there
could be little or no legal busi-
ness transacted during the holi-
udy pSIlOu. OOui to WSIC lOISe.O
to take a recess; transfers of
property could not be consuma-
ted; contracts under seal could
not be executed. This is, in
brief, the effect of a legal holi-
day. To escape from this con-
dltion the governor sought to
rescind his proclamation, but
failed, it appears, to find he
might lawfully do so.
1t was a somewhat ludicrous if
not a ridiculous situation. The
bankers appear as if they had
acted in bad faith; the governor
as'if he had overlooked the full
legal effect of his proclamation,
and all as if they had acted hasti-
ly and unadvisedly.
The furry is passing away and
business will soon resume its
normal condition, but-well,
sometimes even men Of affairs
will needlessly lose their heads.

the case for several years. The
extent of this retrenchment and
the number of men effected by it
are greatly exaggerated while
the causes assigned for it by
political demagogues and by the
yellow press are everything ex-
cept the true causes.
1t is done to rebuke the Presi-
dent" 1t means the defeat of
his third term aspirations" 1t
is the inev table result of the
pres dents assault on corpora
tions'. These are the reasons
set out by demagegues, and a
Sensational press.
1t is difficult to use but Or
dinary speech to describe such
misunderstanding fools. One
wishes it were not impolite and
immoral to use the most express
i've adjectives in several langua-
ges when speaking of them.
Railroads are managed by
sharp, shrewd men, who care lit
tie for politics. Their prime and
most persistent purpose is to
make dividends. They see that
the President and the PEOPLE are
determined such dividends shall
be earned by right means. An
increasing number of them see
that on their part honesty is
the best policy" and they are in
favor of that policy. They see,
or some of them see that the
policy of the president is really
best for them and they openly
approve it.
1t IS reserved for such Great
ures as Congressman Gillespie of
Texas, who probably never own
ed a share of railway stock to
ascribe this usual and necessary
action of the railroad companies
to the effect of the Administra-
tion's policies.

NOT UNUSUAL.

The railway companies through
out the country have now begun
to retrench their expenditures.
There will be a general suspen-
sion of construction work. That
which nears completion will be
pushed through, but all, or near
-ly all that requires considerable
time to complete will be suspend
ed. d.A-There is no evidence that
any of this work will be abanded,
though possibly some of it may
be. --
It is no new nor unusual thing
for much of such work, indeed
the greater part of it, to be sus-
pended during the winter
months. Much of it cannot be
prosecuted at all under winter
weather conditions, and that
which may be carried on must be
done at greatly increased ex-
pense. This explains, in the
main, the action of thecompanies.
It comes just a little earlier
than usual. This may be ex-
planned by thepresent stringency
of money and the depreciation
of stocks. Old, safe and desir-
able stocks have suffered in the
recent slump, and it has become
very difficult to place the shares
of new enterprises, however safe
and meritorious these may be,
on the market, that is, to obtain
cash by their sale. The effect
of this is to suspend operations
until money is easier to be OBJ
tanned.
The aggregate number of men
thrown out of work is large simp-
ly because much greater num-
Der was employed than has been

A GAERT METEOR.

Flushing, Ohio, News.-At a late
hour Sunday night an immense mete-
or or shooting star of some sort pass
ed directly over Harrison county
from east to west. Its head was a bril-
liant mass of fire, surrounded by a
glow of many colors, and this was
followed by a great tail that appeared
to be flame and sparks that extended
clear across the sky, broadening and
fading the farther from the neucleus.
ABOUT minute after the passing or
the great body, there was heavy ex.
plosion heard in the west. followed
by prolonged roar which seemed TO
to come from the path of the passing
meteor. The explosion shook houses
and ratified dishes and windows.
Those witnessing the phenomenon
say 1t was grand spectacle. and thar
1t Illuminated the night until it was
as bright as day. 1t is supposed the
mass was merely passing through the
outer portion of the earth's atmo-
sphere, and the explosion was at the
point where tle body left the atmo-
sphere and the roar was caused nv
the rush of air to fill up the spac1
mace by the mass passing through.
