BIRTHDAY OF
ELI Whitney
COTTON GIN INVENTOR BORN HI.
YEARS AGO TODAY.
Creator of Wonderful Invention,
Which RevoIutiOnized Cotton In
dustTy in South, Was Robbed of
Invention and Lost All Profits.

Although its owner has been
long time dead, Eli Whitney is a
name which will last as long as the
world treasures the memories of its
great inventors. Today is the Hath
anniversary of the birth of the crea
tor of the cotton gin. Westboro,
Mass, was his birthplace. He grad
uated at Yale College in 1892, pay
ing the expenses of his education
partly by school teaching and part
ly by mechanical labor
Upon leaving college. he determ-
ined to go South, and settled in
Georgia. Finding a generous pat
ron in the widow of Gen Greene, of
Revolutionary fame, he abandoned
MS original intention of teaching,
and resided on her estate and stud
led law
The latent inventive genius Of
Whitney soon found an object for its
attention. He observed that cot
ton culture at this period was lin
tied by the slow and difficult work
OF separating the cotton from the
seed by hand Laboring under great
disadvantages, Whitney set about to
remedy this condition. After much
patient toll and racking of the
brain, he discovered the principles
of the cotton gin. Reports OF his
success were bruited abroad, and
prompted some lawless people to
break into his workshop and steal
his machine, and get others made
before he could secure a patent.
Whitney formed partnership
with a man named Miller and went
to Connecticut in l793, to engage in
the manufacture of cotton gins I'm
mediately he was engaged in Legal
suits by the INSCRIPTIONS wretches
who had stolen the product of MS
brain, and the legal defense of his
rights carried off ali the profits ana
some $4,000 voted him by the
State of South Carolina
In 1898 Whitney obtained a gov
eminent contract for the manutac-
ture of firearms, and was the first
to affect the division of labor by
which each part was made separ-
ately by skilled workmen. This in
novatiOn was the beginning of the
great American industrial system,
under which workmen no longer
make a completed article, but only
small part.
Whitney made a fortune through
the great saving in cost of this kinu
of manufacture, coupled with ingeni-
GUS machinery of his own invention.
He established a great factory at
Whitneyville, Conn. He died in New
Haven, Conn, Jan. 8, 1925.

Food products are scarce and the

Ship owners declare mat they will
cause the overthrow OF Premier Glenn
