= Charlotte Observer: A cloud Of ru-
mors are again afioat as to the erec-
ton of q monster cotton mill near Great
Falls. s. c.. According to the report
which has some foundation in the way
OF circumstantial evidence, a mill to
cost ultimately 100000 Is to be built
somewhere near Great Falls with
Messrs. Hal B. Mebane president, and
Robt s. Mebane secretary and treasur-
er. There are reports to the effect that
the Dukes are largely interested in the
new enterprise, which will take the
Southern power "juice" and be oper-
ated in the field Of this monster hydro
electric power company. The presence
Of Mr.. J. B. Duke in the south has
revived old stories and the projected
mill Is again in the air.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER az, 1909,
Our Criminal Laws.-Mr. Fitz Hugh

Our Criminal Laws.-Mr. Fitz Hugh
McMaster, insurance commissioner OF
South Carolina, was one Of the speak
ers at the annual meeting Of the board
of casualty and surety underwriters al
the Astor House in New York the 9TH
er day, and in the course Of his re-
marks, he made some very pointed OBJ
servations on a subject that Is begin
ming to excite inquiry but which is moi
yet receiving the attention 1t deserves
as follows:
president Taft but voices the senti-
ment Of the nation when he says tnal
the administration Of the criminal law
In this country Is q disgrace to our CIV
ilization. The criminal lawyer, the
man whose only claim to professional
distinction rests upon his ability 70
save from avenging justice the muir
derer, the thief and the villain, Is an
enemy to society, and should hno MS
fellowship only among his clients
When public opinion so treats him and
with him the juries which RESPOND To
his chicanery, criminal laws will be
better enforced. The damage suit law
yer while not exactly In the same
class, really is an enemy to the inter-
ests he Is supposed to represent. His
voracious appetite for fees, and his
willingness to satisfy his cravings by
sacrificing his clients just claims
causes many corporations to adopt as a
fixed policy the contesting Of all claims
leaving 1t to the courts to sift the just
from the unjust. The sitting process is
slow at best, but when damage suit
is ended about everything has passed
through the sieve before 1t Is turned
over to the just claimant. This pro-
cess calls to mind the words Of Ma
dame de Pompadour: after me the
deluge." The resisting Of all claims Is
storing up against the day Of wrath,
and just as sure as fate there will
come a day Of reckoning, as that the
deluge did follow the grand monarch,
and his abettors, unless some satisfying
agency intervenes. Indemnity compa-
nies may save the day. For eacn in
jury there is just compensation, and
this being proffered 1t will not take the
public long to recognize and enforce
justice upon both contestants. The
wear and tear upon humanity should
be one Of the fixed charges that each
industry should bear. It should and
must enter into the cost Of production,
and ultimately the consumer of the
product must pay for it."

New York, Oct. 21-It was anoth-
er v4Iy nervous and irraSullr day in
the cotton market, but, like yester-
day, prices reached their best level
in the late trading and while the close
was officially termed barely steady"
last prices were within a point or
two of the top. Net changes for the
day ranged from an advance of
point to a decline of 2 points.
The market opened at decline of
2 to points on active months in
response to disappointing cables;
quickly rallied on overnight buying
orders to within a point or two of
last nights finals: then eased off un-
der bear pressure and liquidations.
The publication of a preliminary re-
port from the National Ginners' AS
sOciation, making the amount of cot
ton ginned to October Is only 5,3S4,-
900 bales and estimating that 1916
per cent of the crop had been picked
against 81 per cent last year, was
even more bullish than rumOred, but
did not further stimulate demand,
and while there was more or less
irregularity, the course of the market
was generally downward until prices
showed a net loss of about 10 to IL
points. There seemed to be no par
ticular item i'm the news in favor of
this decline and when it was found
that disappointment over the recep-
ton of the ginners' report was not
leading to liquidation by the larger
Southern bulls some of the early
sellers turned to cover. running the
price of December up from 1857 to
l3.SO-the seasons high record
while May advanced from 1857 to
1888. There were plenty of buying
orders around the ring at the close
with December at 1873 and May at
1885 bid Weather reports were
without special feature while private
spot news claimed generally steady
interior markets and ii was reported
that a South Alabama spot firm had
failed. owing to its inability to fill eX-
port engagements made earlier in
the season. The census ginning re-
port is expected on Monday.

There wasn't much food left
in the Eskimo hut, and Minanish,
whose father was away on a hunt
ing trip, was going out to see
what he could find. AS he left
his mother warned him about
watching for the polar bears, but
Minanish laughed gaily, assuring
her that no bears would come
near him. So, shouldering his
fishing spear, he set out.
He walked a long ways from
home before he found seal
hole, and there he seated himself
to watch for fish. The wind
blew very hard, and Minandish
drew the fur hood closer about
his face and peered more closely
into the water, hoping to get a
fish so he could go back to his
warm hut. He was so interested
that he forgot his mothers warn
ing about the bears, and didn't

feet down just as quietly as a
kitten so as not to warn hiss vic

Minanish shivered with the
cold, and was wishing he. was
home, when he felt a heavy tap
on his shoulder that knocked him
over. Oh! how scared he was
when he saw the bear! Remem-
bering what his father had taught
him, he lay still while the bear,
thinking he was dead, calmly
nosed him over. AS she turned

under the left shoulder, he quick.
ly sent his spear into her heart
thus saving his life.
How eagerly he ran home t.
tell his mother and younger
brothers that he had killed a
bear. AS soon as they could they
all went to the seal hole with the
dog sled to take the bear home,
where the skin would be used for
a bed covering or clothing, and
the meat for food.
