The council passed the amendment
and the mayor N,clared It ia force

Then these rumors began to come

port the matter to the mayor. That
brings the matter down to date"
Neither Would votss
Both counciimen concur In practi-
cally all that DR.. Levy said In the above
Interview. $3.50
Il Is matter Of record however, that
when the matter OF amendment was
called before the Council for approval
both Mr.. Pollock and Mr.. Wise ex-
piafned that they were counsel for
excused from participating In the bal
lot, and an q result OF this request they
were excused from voting.
Though they were to receive the
$500 for services rendered before the
Health Department, both councilmen
positively refused to receive an add
tiofai fee OF $500 offered for their as
distance In having the ordinance In
its amended form. This second $500
was not offered as bride. but merely,
both cotincilmen claim, rs counsel fcc.
The charges against them are based
upon the fact that they as councilmen
attempted to influence DR.. Levy. The
fee was not paid until after the mayor
had signed the amended ordinance, and
II Ia also charged that Mir. Wise Ia
himself largely interested ia certain
dairy concerns.

OUR NEW MILLS.

Il. NJ. Mccown. Secretary of State.
has compiled figures showing the in
crease. during tie past year. OF the
capital invested in the whole state
and in the different counties. The fg
ures for the whole state show Il total
increase of over eleven million dol
lars. Laurens County is credited with
an increase, in capital invested, of
Sl,l36,00O, this increase placing her
second on the list.
Laurens county is "crcdited" with
being second on the list and with hnv-
ing invested" over million dollars
within the past year. Does anybody
know where that million dollars has
been Invested? 1t w"s supposed to
have been invested, mCst of it. in n
new mill here and new mill at GRAY
Court but the money lacks good
deal of having been invested 1t seems
that great deal of energy was in
vested" for a while in talking about
these two mills and in getting things
in shape so that we could got the
mills ii We wanted them. but further
than that nothing has been invested
Are the citizens OF i.aureus Going
to sit down and let this chance for
these new enterprises pass by? The
cry cannot afDrd to. Other cities III
the Piedmont are building new mills
and none o! them are better aLlc &c
build ncW ~ Ills than l. l.u'irnns :u3t
rs much wealth is IN l.uur2rs md il.
Eaurens county rs is in tho ether
counties. In fact. taking the whole
there is not n better county In the
State. All that we need now is a lit
tie more hustle and hustle. We ought
to have these mills. We cannot do
without them If we are to keep pace
with the other cities in the Piedmont.
There was time, and it was not
far distant. when the population Of
Laureas was far ahead OF other towns
within a radius Of fifty miles of here.
Why have those other towns forged
ahead? 1t hasn't been luck; it hasn't
been the result OF better country
being hehin1 them II hasn't been from
superior railroad facilities. Its been
because the citizens of those towns
have put their money and brains into
:hCir enterprise and, Shoullering the
wheel together and pushing forward
for the aG"ance ct thci, cities best in.
tercsts, they have worked for the eX.
nansion OF their enterprises. Tha. has
