Output.

output.
The Arkwright club, which repre-
sents the cotton mill interests of New
England, at a meeting in Boston on
Thursday, formally voted to curtail
production 25 per cent between now
and March 1, in order to relieve con-
ditions in the cloth markets of New
York. Chicago, Boston and other large
cities. 1t was stated several days ago
that committee previously appoint
ed by the club to canvass the situa-
tion among the mills had found suf-
ficient sentiment to insure the success
Of the curtailment plan, and that a
restriction of production was regard
ed as certainty. The cotton mills
Of New England employ about 1885,
900 persons under the normal condi-
tions. and 1t is expected that at least
10000 win be affected in short
time.
The curtailment agreement became
operative Thursday, although numer-
Gus mills have been shut down sinca
Tuesday night
More than 80 per cent of the spin
dies in New England are represented
In the agreement. The majority of
the mills will run four days a week
during January and February, clos
ing Thursday nights, thus including
Saturday, a workday, in the shutdown.
Mills which have contracts calling for
delivery during the winter are at lib
erty to reduce their production 25 per
cent, partially before March 1 and
the remainder after that date.

MAKES HISTORICAL FIND.
Papers Captured from Lieut.. Pike In
1906 Unearthed I'm Mexico.

What is considered very important
historical discovery has resulted from
the efforts of DR.. Herbert z. Belton,
the American historian, who is in
Mexico engaged In research work un.
der the auspices of the Carnegie insti-
tute, of Washington. The discovery
consists in the unearthing in Mexic D
City of eighteen out of twenty-one
documents taken from the person of
Lieut.. Zebulon n. Pike, of the United
States army, by Spanish soldiers in
1906, when he was captured while
making his famous trip up the Arkan-
sas and Missouri rivers. visiting the
Usage and Comanche Indians, at the
instance of Gen. James Wilkinson,
then governor of Louisiana. The
whereabouts of the other three docu-
nents cannot be learned. So impor-
tant is the discovery considered in the
United States that Secretary Root has
just wired DR.. Bolton his congratula
tions.

GOTHAM'S CRIME WAVE.
All Records Broken During the Past
Year.

Notwithstanding that there are six
criminal courts in operation in New
York City, they cannot keep pace with
the crime wave which has swept over
the city during the last year. The
criminal calendar today carries 1,271
cases, while year ago there was on
the calendar but Sal cases. There are
323 prisoners in the Tombs awaiting
trial. A year ago there were but 191
prisoners. Today's figures break al,
records in New York. District Attor-
ney Jerome says the increase Is due
to the natural increase in population
in New York City.

Who Will Go Ahead?

Unless the farmers themselvei
catch hold OF the idea with heart
and soul, the country life commits
sion, with the backing of the presi.
dent will not amount to much
President Roosevelt himself sees
this fact. He wants the farmers
side OF the question. He wants 10
know what the farmers themselves
most desire in the way OF farm
conditions. Not what they moal
desire, but what they themselves
deem the most practicable in the
way of improving their conditions,
The school district meetings al
over the country,proposed by Pres'
dent Roosevelt and indorssd by the
country life commission. affords
the farmers just this opportunity
Someone in every school distric,
must get buisv in the matter OF ar
ranging for the school house meet
ing. II one waits for another there
will be nothing done until the last
moment. Then there will be hur.
ried meeting of but little value.
Farmers are not the only per
sons interested in the country life
commission, nor the only ones from
whom the president expects valu'
able suggestions. In his letter to
Chairman Bailey, President Roose.
welt writes:
Throughout this letter; where |
use the word farmer | mean also
to include all those who live in the
open country and who are intim.
ately connected with those who do
farm work-ministers, school
teachers, physicians, editors OF
country papers, in short all men
and women whose life work 10 done
either on the farm or in connection
with the life work of those who are
on the farm"
Whoever will take hold OF the
matter of arranging for these school
house meetings, whether the farm
or, school teacher, doctor, minister,
editor, or any other person in the
community who is willing to take
the time and exercise the energy
necessary TO make the meeting a
success--this man should receive
the aid and encouragement of all in
the community. 1t is not a mat

been an invalid for six or more years.
The last 80 years she was confined to
her bed the greater part of the time.

Through all her suffering, which at
times was intense, she was patient and
cheerful. She was a good woman, an
Elect lady of the Lord" Her happy
smiles, her friendly grasp. her deeds Of
kindness will not soon be forgotten.
To her death was not the king of
Terrors." She was ready to depart and
often expressed a desire TO go, saying

be with the Lord

by Rev. w. b. Christy, pastor of the
Grant City Methodist church and inter
ment made in the cemetery nearby.
The above is a clipping from a Mis-

read the above. Mrs. Claypool is a sis

Bluff; niece of Mr.. Henry Peck,
Unaka; and sister of Mrs. Marion
