CONFISCATING MILL PROPERTY
Greenwood Journal.

Greenwood Journal.
Everyone knows the exceedingly
hard struggle that the cotton mills OF
the South have had for the past sew
eral years. 1t has been about all they
could do to make ends meet, and un-
der the great strain many Of them
have gone down. The stockholders
have not received dividends in many
of them for years, and the stock went
down to- less than half its par value.
AS the result of this many persons
who have invested their all in this
stock really suffered. Widows and
orphan children were on account OF it
deprived Of the means, of living.
After this great struggle a: better
day dawned, and .thenials have only
recently. begun to come back. again.
They have improved their plants and
increased the wages Of their oper-
'atives, and the outlook for the stock
! holders to begin--to realizei:is very
encouraging, but just as:they.a are get
ting on their feet a bill has been in
s.troducea in congress: which if4;it be-
| comes. a law will just about finish the
mills, It viii amount to eonascasion.

! We do not like to charge, at this
time. when our country is face to race
with a gerat crisis sectionalism, but
! it is we'll enough to remember that the
South is the home Of the cotton mill
industry, and while it is more than
willing to bear it's share Of the war
burden it demands just. and consider
ate treatment. The practical connsca-
cation of mill property touches INC
very existence of thousands OF people
who have invested their all in this IN
dustry. Besides, men, women ana
children are dependent upon the LABOR
they get from these mills for their
bread.
| It is to be hoped that Southern con-
gressmen will take hold of the situa-
ton with that vigor that the crisis de-
mands and get help enough to pre-

TEXAS NAN HERE IS
HELD FOR BURGLARY

Deputy Sheriff Baltic, from Liberty
county, Texas, reached here yester-
day and instigated the arrest of
white man named Lex McShan, who
was found at Fort Barrancas, and
who had been attached to the army
about five months. He is wanted in
Liberty county, Texas, on the charge
of burglary. He was turned over to
the civil officer and from the reserva-
ton was brought to the city and
placed in the county Jail for safe
keeping, or until the Texas man is
able to shov requisition papers guar
anteeing the return of the prisoner
to the Lone Star state.
Deputy Ballio reached the city
after having applied for requisition,
and was expecting the said document
to be awaiting him at Pensacola. The
prisoner is said to have offered to re-
turn without the papers, but the
deputy thought it unwise to attempt
to take him on the promise and is
waiting on the Florida governor to
act:

RELATIVES HUNT
FOR FRED CROOKE


Freddie Crooke, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Chas. d. Crooke, of 415 West
Romano street, disappeared a few
days ago, and all efforts to locate the
young man have thus far failed. The
parents state with positiveness that
they are without advices as to his
strange disappearance, but believe
that it was because of notice an
nouncing lis engagement which APP
peared in the press a few days ago.
This notice, written in a feminine
hand, was sent to the newspapers,
and young Crooke was alleged to be
engaged to a young lady. To his
relatives, just before he disappeared,
he said that it was news TO him, and
shortly afterward he left the city.
The parents would appreciate any
information which would lead to his
location.

FACTS ABOUT THE sLovAKs
People Belonging to West Branch %
slav FamIly-Mostiy Aor:eui.
turistc and Woodcutterp.

The Slovaks are Slavs. The Mag
vars are not. The Slovaks are a
people belonging to the west branch
Of the Slav family. They are chiefly
located in northwest Hungary and
Moravia, but they are also to be
found in Lower Austria, Slavonia
and Bukowina. About thrce-fourths
of them are Roman Catholics. Their
language was a dialectal form Of
Czech, and Czech was used in all
their writing until the end of the
eighteenth century, when the Slovak
dialect began to be used in writing.
The Slovaks are principally sgricul-
turists and woodcutters. They NUM-
Der about 100000. So far as is
known, the Slovaks occupied their
present territory about the fifth or
sixth century, together with land
stretching far to the south. When
the Magyars conquered the kingdom
of Great Moravia in 9O7, the Slovaks
were a part of that country; the
Magyars displaced or assimilated the
southern Slovaks and have, with
brief Interruptions, ruled the rest
ever since. In 1s4S-49, when the
Magyars rose against Austria, the
Slovaks in turn rose against the
Mngyars, but on the treaty of peace
were handed back to them. The
Magyars are Il Finno-Ugrian or
Finno-Turki people. descendants of
the race who. about $50. moved from

stcppe were driven westward to oh.

Man Killed by Ambulance
Had Relatives at Arvada

A Red Cross ambulance last
Saturday afternoon struck Louis
R. Winans who was crossing the
street, knocking him against the
curbing and crushing his skull.
He was taken to a hospital and
died as soon as it was reached.
An item in the paper revealed
to Mr.. and Mrs. Hiram Brown of
Arvada, the sad news that it was
Mrs. Browns cousin and nephew
Of Mrs. William Allen who had
been killed. He had called on
the Browns the evening before
and had an engagement to eat
dinner with them Sunday.
He was between SO and 60
years old and leaves five children
to mourn his death, his wife be-
ing dead.
Mr. Winan's home was in
New York, but he was a great
traveller and was stopping a short
time in Denver.
No blame is attached to the Red
Cross ambulance as he sounded
the horn twice. Mr.. Winans
heard it the last time but stepp-
ed back just in front of the
machine.
A coincident which reminds
US that life is uncertain. lies in
fact that Mr.. Winans jocularly
remarked to Mr.. and Mrs.
Brown that he expected to live
forty years yet.
