Government Ownership.
Editor News:

Editor News:
I have not seen the last i'sue of the
paper but will write OH government
ownership. We will now take up an
cient history and see how it worked in
ancient times We viii first call your
attention to Rollins and take Egypt as
it was the first to have government
ownership Volume II tells us that
the king had the whole right to say
how much royalty tie ones who titled
the soil should pay, and under the
reign of Puolemy issued decree that
two-thirds shoul.i be paid and the peo-
Pile became so onpressel that they had
no inttres in their government. So
the King of Rome saw good time
and came on Egypt and loon took the
nation, and Rome changed the form of
government, and Egypt paid Rome d
tax and they owneu their land, and
the people of Egyl t rejoiced in the
change. So it was a complete ruina-
tion of the country. | could give
many quotations from different histor-
les. anj prove beyond doubt that your
little theory will not do, but l deem
this one quite enough to show that So
cialism is dangerous and will ruin our
great republic Take every nation
that had government ownership and
you will fine that they fell prey to
another nation cannot see for my
life what any man " no is friend to
our union wants to get something that
will ruin us If it would not do in
ancient times, it will not do in these
last days Rollins Ancient History,
Vol. w, tells us that Asia had gov
eminent ownership and Asia fell a
prey to Rome. Now, MIR. B., you or
your little two by four thrust stick
in the Nile and go blind as the King
of Egypt did. He went blind for ten
years for throwing stick in the Nile.
This will be my last for while.
Yours for tn whole truth.

dent of the exposition Of 1911. He is
leader in business, financial, COM
mercial, industrial, social, legal, mil
itary and political circles. In fact,
he is one of the most well rounded
men to be found anywhere in the
south. His wide experience has es-
pecially fitted him for this service,
and the manner in which he is de-
veloping the exposition into success
the like of which the south has never
known, is proof conclusive of the
wisdom of the selection.
Col Tyson's career has been such
as to make him one of the men of
wide affairs in the south. He is a
capitalist, manufacturer, brigadier
general, ex-member of house of rep
resentatives, eX-speaker of the house
of representatives, and has held other
positions of honor in Tennessee and the
south. He has always been recognize
ed as illustrating the force, character,
chivalry and gallantry of the true
southern business man and gentleman.
Notwithstanding the fact that Col.
Tyson is very busy man, being con-
nected in an official capacity with a
large number of business enterprises,
the love for his state and section in
duced him to accept the presidency of
the Appalachian exposition.
Col. Tyson is president of the Knox
vile Cotton mills, the Lenior City
Land company, president of the'Creek
Coal and Land company, vice-presi-
dent of the East Tennessee Coal &
Iron company and of the Poplar Creek
G Jellico Coal Mining company, and di-
rector in a number of banking and
other institutions.
Col Tyson was originally from
North Carolina, and was born on the
glorious Fourth of July, 1861 the son
of Richard Lawrence and Margaret
Davis Tyson. He graduated from the
United States military academy at

We supplying it in large quantities at the SOL
diers' Home, the Walter Reed Army General Hos->
pital, and to many private building operations, the
orders books running up to approximately
$4,000 tons. The supply is such that we do not
need to fear it being exhausted. 1t is .conserva-
lively estimated that if we work Our plant at its full
capacity and deliver all the orders we can possibly
supply that we cannot exhaust the bank in the next
100 years.
We have employed superintendent. man of

Superiority Of Product

Superiority Of Product
The brick we manufacture is so far superior to
anything on the market as to insure orders IN ad-
vance for all we can manufacture
Our system of manufacturing by special ma
chnery enables to produce this superior article
at surprisingly low factory cost
The high quality of our product must result in
an enormous sale. The low manufacturing cost
must result in an enormous profit.
Our class of brick is not by any means new to
the American architect and builder but we are
among the first to produce the highest grade prod
uct of any ever made in this country. The process
has been known and used in Germany for the last
fifty years. and within the last year has been adopt
ed exclusively by the German government
The most prominent architects and builders of
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washing
ton have indorsed our product and are using it in
the very highest class of buildings. The Du Pont
Powder Company of Wilmington DEL, who iusel
100000 of these brick in their twelve-story office
building four years ago, are now using the same
quantity again in charging their building and say
it is BY far the most satisfactory brick that they
know Of Hammersten's Philadelphia Opera House
is built entirely of this material. The fine new ter
n,inal station at Winnipeg (the coolest climate on
this continent) is being built exclusively of this kind
of brick A whole square of dwellings in George
town. D. c. is to be built exclusively of product,
as we'll as dozens of houses scattered over the vari
Gus sections of the District.
The brick must be seen to be appreciated. It
is something new in Washington. Our light gray
brick are exactly what is wanted for government
and office buildings. There is no such thing as
variation in size. They do not contract or expand
either under heat or dampness They will scarcely
They can be rocl-faced, like stone, and look ex-
actly like Indiana limestone. The demand for them
right now, in the dead of winter, is such that we
could not supply it were able to make 100000
per day. Our market is not confined to the city of
Washington The brick is well known in Bati-
more, Philadelphia, Wilmington, and New York,
md is bringing daily inquiries from all of those
cities, while our freight rates such that we are
in condition to successfully compete with all brick
factories at those points.
The Washington herald., 1911-01-17
The Extent Of the
\ Manufacturing Business
in Which We Are Engaged

In investing in a business certain conditions
must be carefully considered
Is the field large one?
Is the demand steady one?
Win the margin of profit warrant an invest
ment?
Everybody knows that it is practically n1pos-
sible to erect any kind of building without using
brick, at least in part of the construction. But
very few are aware of the fact that the consumption
of brick in the District of Columbia alone is in ex-
cess of 100000 per day, yet with transportation
facilities, our low cost of manufacture with low
freight rates, in a condition to supply building
bricks either face or common, in the cities of Bal
tiore and Philadelphia for little money, less,
than they can be manufactured and delivered in
those cities.
- The fact that we have orders booked for sew
eral millions at this time of the year when there is
the smallest quantity of building operations going
On is plain proof that shall be totally unable to
meet the demand when the spring trade opens
We can manufacture brick and have them
ready for shipment in less than twenty-four hours
time. Those made to-day ready to ship to-
morrow We handle them but once before ship
ping by rail wagon, thus bringing cost of
production to minimum. The orders we are re-
ceiving at prices insuring a net profit of
more than 100 per cent on the cost of manufacture
The company owns outright seventy-one acres
of land at Stotts, D. c., and upon this land has been
erected its immense plant, the most modern brick
plant in the world. The presses are of substantial
construction and fully equipped with up-to-date
machinery for this special work, each brick being
subjected to pressure of ti1irty-four tons. These
are then steamed in immense steam cylinders at
pressure of $50 pounds per square inch, which COM
pletely cures the brick in the short space of ten
hours
Stotts D. c., is located on the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad four miles north of the Union Sta
ton and in direct connection with all other rail-
roads. The factory has its own siding, thus giving
us unsurpassed shipping facilities to any part of the
country.
