COTTON MILLS WILL RESUME
Secretary Of Manufacturers Is Opt
mistic Over Outlook.

Boston. Mass.-When the members
! Of the National Association of Cotton
Manufacturers assemble at Hotel
Wentworth, Portsmouth, \. H., for
their Semi-annual meeting, September
10, 16 and II, it will probably be given
out that there will be q general re-
sumption of activity among cotton
mills all over the country early in
October.
c. J. II. Woodbury., secretary and
treasurer of the National Association
of Cotton Manufacturers, said that he
believed it to be a fact, as everything
now seemed to point that way.
"There is no surplus Of manufac-
tured cotton goods said Mr.. Wood
bury. and by that time manufacture
ers will have new cotton to work
with. Cotton mills have Curtailed pro
duCtiOn the last year to a greater eX-
tent than any other industry. BY
October 10 the price Of goods Will
probably have advanced to q point
where manufacturers can produce at
a profit. The bulk of lOw-pricod cot
ton has been worked up, and mills
will resume operations practically
upon the same basis, without the
probability of great irrcgularity in the
price of finished goods and a conse,
uuent unsettlement of the market.

PHILIPPINE REVOLT ENDS.
Leader of Uprising Is Captured by
Constabulary.

Manilla.-Thc uprising in Nueva
Viscaya, led by Simon Mandac, the
former governor OF Ilocos Norte, came
70 an inglorious end Saturday when
MaIdac fell into the hands Of the
constabulary, having been seized aud
surrendered by the people of the prov
ince among whom he had sought to
stir up trouble.
A few of MandaC's right-hand men
also were arrested and his other fol,
lowers dispersed. 1t is estimated that
the band of outlaws originally num-
bered 800, but it dwindled soon to 200,
and these had but few arms.
When the pursuit became hot, Man
dac sought refuge in the home of a
man who was subsequently killed
when the people turned against the
former governor and revealed his hid
ing place.

Opportunity Of Suffraqist.

Baroness Alctta kOrff tells in n
Of the magazines how the women Of
Finland came TO vote. The fact Is
that women had to show that they
could meet an emergency before the
vote came to them. They have not
had many opportunities to take the
initiative in the worlds history and
they have not always responded when
the opportunity came, but when a
crisis, such as that in 1904, when the
strike and the revolutionary outbreak
in Russia took place at the same time,
occurred, they proved they could
make peace by doing it. Not until
England and the United States find
the women helping them to bear some
great trouble will they give them the
right to vote.

WEIGH, W. Va, June 2f.-Hon.
James Anthony Hughes, of Hunting
ton, was re-nominated for Congress
from the Fifth Congressional District
today by unanimous vote. Not a
single dissenting vote was raised and
the convention wound up in the
greatest love feast the district has
ever seen. The motion to make the
nomination by reclamation was made
by A. A. Lilly, OF Raleigh, who made
a speech, assuring the candidate of
his support, although he said publicly
he would be candidate two years
from now for the same Office. Con-
gresham Hughes was called to the
chair and made an address before and
after which he was wildly cheered by
all the delegates. Harmony being
effected throughout the convention,
the main fight of the dav was on IL c
resolutions, which were adopted, and
on the election Of permanent chair
man. Both fights were easily settled
by compromise in the first case and
by the ruling of the chair in the
second place.
MRS. PoyFENnARGER TALKS.
Mrs. Poffenbarger, of Mason. was
called on and made hit with the
convention. as She preached Republi-
canism and harmony. This is the
first time in the history of the state,
that a woman has addressed con-
vention. Mrs. Poaenbarger was fol-
lowed by Judge L. Herndon, Of
Mcdowell.
