pany Is another establishment OF which
Danville Is Justly proud, for that COM
pany has demonstrated what great
things can grow in this Danville soil
from small beginnings. In 1900 this
company with a paid-up capital Of
$4,000 commenced in small way the

Another enterprise that has carried
the business reputation OF Danville far
and near was built up from small
beginning by "the Westbrook boys"
as they are called. The Westbrook
Elevator Company. who operate a
$4,000 plant, are manufacturers of
elevators. which they sell all over the
country. They make passenger and
freight elevators of all kinds to be

building OF any kind with elevators
that cost all the way from few hun

are made under the Westbrook's own
patterns, and all are sold under a guar
antee of their perfection and equipped
with the most approved safety devices
This company also manufactures and

and other machinery In these mills
is generated at the power-house on
Dan River and conveyed thence by

three -eighths of mile distant. Like
tho Riverside. tho Dan River Cotton
Mill is complete in all departments,

In bales from the Southern field and

Surrounding these mills has boon
erected by the company beautiful lit

lhillsides. The village, which has been
named Schooltield, Is lighted by elec-

other comforts and convenlences. The
location Is ideal and more healthy

Churches of several denominations

The company is a liberal contributor
to the building funds OF all OF them,
and they have established here good
schools for the education of the chill

schools are under the general super
vision OF the public school authorities
they are in the main supported by the
mills. The company improves every
opportunity3to help their employees and
to make life pleasure to them.
Both the Riverside and the Dan
River Companies (and they are prac-

combination or spinners or carders or
what not, They work when they
please and quit when they want to, and
they please to work all the time and
therefore their employees are not stand

for we Don't Pstronlze."

Washington. Feb 25.-Over the sig
nature Of samuel GOmpers. an edi
torial in the American Federationist

cisiOn OF the supreme court OF the
United States In the case OF Loewe &
Co. popularity known as the "hat
case" which is declared TO be the
most drastic and far-reaChing decis
ion which IL has ever handed down
and as affecting directly all labor and
hence the whole people. The editorial
begins with the statement that labor
organizations must not be outlawed.'
and then proceeds at great length &c
review the courts decision point by
point. with a view to showing that
the court erred.
II Is denied that there was any re
straint Of trade on the part OF the
United Hstters. because their action
In preventing the sale OF I.oewe hats
did not result in fewer hats being
purchased by the community" More
over. IL is asserted positively that ir
one important point the court was in
error for the American Federation
OF Labor never endorsed or declared
a boycott against the LOewe com
pany."
Says Mr. Gompcrs. We trust Il viii
not be considered lese majestic Il we
say that in our opinion the supreme
court in this and other recent decis
ions affecting labor tends 10 revert &C
the medieval procedure rather thar
to make the application OF legal prin
ciples 70 the present Industrial stu
alton. The language OF the hatters
decision makes II clear that the su
preme court has not informed Itself
on modern economics. In its opinion
the rights Of hats seems 70 be greater
than the rights Of men. In fact. this
decision goes TO an unheard Of length
IN Furnishing the workers for the *
ercise OF their rights"
II is denied that a labor union +
trust" for there cannot be a trust
in something which IS not yet pro
ouced." The editorial. continuing de
clares that while the conscience OF 6
