The Cotton Mills.

"The cotton mills Of South Carolina, 1907
letters written to the News and Courier BY
August Kohn, Columbia Bureau. The News
and Courier" Is the title OF book which
has just been printed by the Daggert Print
ing Company of Charleston. S. c.
This is an exceedingly interesting book
W hich should be in every man g library. Il
is doubles the best and the most reliable
book that was ever written or ever will be
written on the subject OF cotton mills. Mr.
Kohn goes further, climbs higher, dives deeper
and works harder for his facts than any mar
who ever wrote book. AS newspaper man
he deals in cold facts without colorinR. And
we have come to the con olusion that when be
max es statement II is true.
This book on cotton mills is simply in
valuable and we wish that all the old maids
all the liars, and all the defamers Of cotton
mill folks would read 1t. But don't you ask
Us to lend you our book. We are not going
TO let you have II. Nobody but q newspaper
man can know the value Of the book or the
labor that 1t cost.

The Legislature.

The legislature ofSouth Carolina is now In
session. We are not informed as TO what tha,
august body will do, but we presume that the
old issues WIFI receive attention, namely
The lien law and the whiskey business. The
number Of men who carried In their pock ets
bills to repeal the lien law is not known, and
80 far as our knowledge goes 1t is a profound
secret as to how many prohibitian bills are
held in reserve. The bills to do away with
county dispepsaries are all hid, and are liable
to be brought out at any time.
five were guessing, we would guess thai
the Carey--Cothrar law, with some improve.
ments will stand.
The lien law will be repealed. The new
legislature to be elected this summer will see
the necessity for re-enaotment OF the lien
law.
The legislature will no doubt see the neces-
slty for doing something to disturb the peace
and prosperity Of the State and this can be
more readily accomplished by striking rem
ters aud land owners.

True Picture.

The editor OF the Press and Banner had no'
more than d casual acquaintance with Har'
Ian David Pressly. Having read the memo
rial"By His Brother" as published In the
Associate Reformed Presbyterian, we say
tha, a more impre ssive or more seemingly
truthful tribute we seldom see. Without
s,ereoty ped phraseolosy and without extrav
agant statement, It bore evidence OF truth
fulness and affection. To as It presented ths
outlines of the man as We conceived him to
be,

Democrats on Guard.

Democrats in Congress must do something
to let people know that they are there. They
are now busy asking questions. and calling
Cortelyou to account for stopping or trying to
cure the recent money panic which was at.
fectlnp the interests OF the whole country.
That Ia right and commennable. II the Re-
publicans had their way. without being
watched, the country might become 30 pros
porous that ordinary everyday citizens might
catch the big head. Honestly, don't you
think that objeoting Democrats ought to sit
down?

Pushing For Colorado.

Centennial, Wyo.-The Laramie,
Hahn's Peak & Pacific railway is now
pushing rapidly toward the Colorado
line. Steel will have been laid to the
boundary before the end of the year.
The extension will terminate at Wal
den, the metropolis of the North Park
country. Already the North Parkers
have cut county road from Walden to
the Wyoming line, and will begin util-
izing the railway as soon as it enters
Colorado.
Steel is being laid on a ten-mile sec
tion of completed grade south of this
place and grading is in progress on an
other twelve-mile section. This latter
section will carry the line to the Colo
RADIO boundary.

this district was $21, 900, paid Tuesday
by j. w. Sanford of Iowa Falls, Iowa
to the ArbucklePurcell Land Company
for w. Fl. Henderson's farm in Pleas
ant valley, three miles east of Greeley
Not only does Henderson receive $2G2
an acre. but he is allowed all this years
crops from the place, which he esti-
mates will net him $4,000. Last year
Henderson paid 100000 for the farm,

been subscribed and a committee will

is believed actual work will be COM

CRIPPLE CREEK
GOLD OUTPUT
RICH ORE INCREASES BULLION
VALUE DESPITE DECREASE
IN TONNAGE.
MILLS ARE KEPT BUSY
ONLY SHORT MONTH PREVENTS
THE BREAKING OF ALL
RECORDS.

Cripple Creek, Colo.-The total ton
mage shipped from the Cripple Creek
district during September amounted to
67,313 tons with bullion value of ST.
396,0S0. These results are considered
remarkable for the fact that while the
tonnags shows decrease of 1,573 tons
under that for August the bullion value
shows an increase Of $65,316
This change is largely due to the
fact that the smelters treated a much
larger tonnage of an average value of
S61 ton. This shows that the higher
grade ore still exists in abundance at
depth. In particular the Portland mine
has cut several veins of ore at depth
of 1.o00 feet. all of which will ship
at better than three ounces, one carry
ing an average value of five ounces.
The fact that September only allowed
twenty-nine days production on &C
count of Labor Day indicates that with
a full month all records for tonnage
would have been broken.
All of the local mills with only two
exceptions have been operating at full
capacity. The ore treated in the dis
trict aggregated 1880 tons of fair
grade. Now that the Portland com
pany has erected an experimental
plant on its Battle mountain property,
it is only a question of time before
5O0-ton mill will be constructed to treat
the immense dumps containing over
10000 tons and also the low-grade
ore produced from the mine.
The figures as given out by the var
ious mill and smeter officials follow:

Founders Statement.

JERSEY CITY, Sept. 16.-Sister An
toinette Jackson, founder of the faith
cure sect. at the annual convention Of
Mount Zion Sanctuary and the Church
of the First Born. said that while she
and her husband were living in Long
Branch the Lord came to her in a dream
and revealed a beautiful spot NJ the
shore of a bay. where she was en3oined
to establish a church in which to teach
the scriptures and the belief in the
efficacy of prayer through faith to heal
bodi!@ ills.
After she came to New York she met
Martin HancoX. now pastor. and he told
her that his father had a piece of prop
erty on the New FORK bay, which
would make an ideal site for a church.
She visited Greenville and the moment
she saw the plot h recognized 1t as
the place the Lord had revealed to her.
Several faith curists testified at yes
terday afternoons session that they
had been healed of bodily diseases
through prayer. One man said.
When I came to Mount Zion Sanctu-
airy fifteen years ago., | was suffering
from chronic catarrh, neuralgia of the
brain, kidney trouble, rupture, rheu-
matism and govt. | was d~ivinely
healed of every disease through the
prayers of our beloved Sister Jackson,
and | have been kept in the best of
health since"
Please don't mention my name in
your testimonials" said Sister jackson,
The Rev. Robert Jackson, Sister Jack
sous husband, said: I've heard Sister
Jackson talk that way before. but IT
seems to me if the Lord constrains peo-
pie to praise her it is all right"
