DEPRESSION ENDS
IN COTTON MILLS

Boston, June 1.-The close of the first
five months of 1908 marks what is be-
leved to be the beginning of the end of
the depression in New England, which
has hung over the cotton and other tex
tile manufacturing centers since the
weeks following financial disturbances
last fall Today many mills which have
been on short time for months started
their men on full time schedules. Some
have increased their output during the
past week, and thus far manufacturers
employing about $1,000 persons have given
notice of the abolition of short time
schedules The welcome change is due
entirely to an increased demand for tex
tile goods. The long period Of curtailment
has depleted stock in the hands of job
bers and the spring trade has revived
business with the retailers.
The manufacturers, while they feel
that the crisis has been passed, do not
anticipate a boom until the political sit
uation has been cleared. 1t is expected
that there will be more or less short
time during the summer and possible
wage cuts in some instances

He said "I have been asked how ricf,
a man can be and remain in the DEM

can be democratic and belong to the

honestly. He ceases to be a democrat
when his riches reach a point where the
money owns the man instead of the man

democrat when his money causes him
to believe that he is made out of a
better brand of clay than the ordinary
