THE EASTER REFLECT D. J. WaiCHARD, E*tor and Owner. Troth in Preference to Fiction. ONE DOLLAR PER YE v
VOL. No. XXV
Opinion of a North Carolina Visitor in Oklahoma
E. L. Little, of Gastonia. N C., is in the city visitii.jr relatives and incidental I v doing a Httle prospecting. Mr Little, in an interview last night gave a brief outline of the cotton mill indus- try in his city
Gastonia is a city of 8,000 in- habitants and has 17 cotton mills, employing approxmately 3,000 operators.
Mr. Little was surprised that a city the size of Ardmore. and it too being the largest inland cotton market, in the world, had mot taken this matter up long ago.
"We have no trouble whatever in raising money to build a cot- ton mill in our town," said Mr. Clitic, "and that too when we ship nearly all th" cotton that is consumed from Mississippi. Why you people could nearly keep that many mills running in the city with your wagon trade. Our 17 mills consume about 165 bales of cotton a day, and they tell me that yon have had over 60,000 bales marketed here in a season.
There is no question as to a cotton mill being a payini? pro- position. We have one mill with as that cast one hundred thou- sand dollars and last year paid the stockholders $81,000 in pro- fits. There never was one in the con ty that went under 20 per
cent., and from, that to 75 per cent"
"Mr. Little, what would you suggest for the city as a starter in this direction?" asked the reporter.
Well, I will tell you, a five o>- ten thousand spindle would be my advice, preferably a five thou- sand mill; that #ill cost approxi- mately one hundred and ten thousand d> liars complete, anil will give employment to about a hundred bands. When I say complete, I mean that inc'udes the cottages for the employees. Most of the cotton mills build these for their heip, lait we absolutely draw the line on com- pany commissaries. Tne opera tiy<;s get their money every Saturday nignt and are at liberty to spend it where and how thev please.''
"How about salaries?" was asked.
"Well, that depends on the operative. I* would figure on about ?1 75 p< r, day on an aver- age. Of course, there are many that get a great deal more, but then, too, 'there are several boys that work in such a mill< but $1.75 is a fair average, 1 think "
"My advice would l>e. if the thecitvis interested, and there ought to be an investigation, if it is not, with all this cotton in 8ightandthe shipping facilities that you enjoy, is to get capital interested in this section. Why. we start out in our country and in a day's time have a company organized to build a mill with a capital of a hundred thousand dollars, and lam told that "you all" are hustlers in this country I may locate in this section, and If I do, I will be glad to assist >n any way- that I can in this move- ment"
This is a proposition that chal- lenges the attention of the busi- ness men of the city. It is to be hoped that Mr. Little will locate with us and lend material assis- tance in landing a large cotton mill for the city.
GREENVILLE, PITT COUNTY. NORTH CAROLINA. FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 6 NO
Major Ncal in Saliatary.
Maj. J. B. Neal, of Halifax Co., a representative in the leg- islature this year, and one of the State's grand young old mm, is a visitor. His visit recalls an ir- cident in his life that shows the mannerof man h i is.
In the'days of Populism when it was as popular to wail the railroads as it is now, Maj Neal warted the Democratic nomina- tion for Corporation Commission- er. His prospects w-re most flat- tering, when OIK- day a friend saw him enter the office of Col. A. B Andrews vice-president of the Southern. When he em- erged the friend called him aside and said:
"See hers. Major, it won't do for you to be seen irotng into Col. Andrews' office. First thing you know it will be going the rounds that you are the railroad's can- didate."
"Good God. man." the Hali- fax soldier cried, "do you think I am going to shun the friend of a life time, and comrade in arms for a miserable little office?' Not a bit of it- If that's the price to pay the office can go to hell, for I propose to take Alex. Andrews, hand every time I come to Kal- eigh."
Maj- Neal was beaten, and in all probabilities his friendship for Col. Andrews, who has accom- plished more for North Carolina than any man in the State, pro- bably had something to do with his defeat. It was a danger- ous thing then as it is now for an aspirant for office to be on good terms with a railroad offi- cial -Salisbury Post.
SOCIETY AND SECT CLASH.
3ad Feeling Aroused Over Ute of a Hall
A fraternal organization known as the Charitable Brotherhood own a hall at Oakley in which the society holds its meeting- In the same community the religious sect teaching the "unknown tongue" has been active in the last few weeks, and the adher- ents of this faith wanted the use of the C. 3 hall in which to hold services. There was opposition to this, and the result was a lot of feeling aroused on both sides.
It seems that the "unknown tongue" adherents made up their minds that they would use the hall, in defiance of the objec- tions, and with this purpose in view a Mrs. Nelson, one of the "unknown tongue" followers, went to the building to open it and turn the others in.
To stop this Mr. N. L. Gray, a member of the Charitable Broth- erhood, went to the building and during the argument with Mrs Nelson pushed her off the steps-
The next move >vas the swear- ing out of a warrant for assault against Gray, and the trial was had iii Greenville Monday before Justices Rountree, Harrington and Harding. A large number of people from that section came over to attend the trial. After hearing many witnesses Gray was adjudged guilty and fined $1 and costs.
The Reflector hopes the trou- ble will end where it is, for it is too trivial a matter for a 00m- munity to be stirred into bad feeling over it.
ELECTRICITY V LAUDANUM.
Woald-be Suicide is Brought Around by bting Shocked Sumo.
Winston-Salem, N. C, Aug. 31.-Tired of life, tired of his family, which he had forsaken, and loaded with whiskey, Louis Batcerfield, aged about 30 years, yesterday afternoon entered the drug store of P. A. Thompson and swallowed a two-ounce vial of laudanum.
Doctors worked and used an electric battery for three hours, a current of 50 volts being turn- ed on the man. He is, however, in a precarious condition.
Slowing Up Process
And a recession in the Cost of doing things is inevitable- It is certain that the kdvarv^e 1n wages and in prices has gone too far and must be stopped. Prices must come down in commodities ready for consumption and the cost to the consumer must be lessened. The cost of carrying on business while it is profitable has so absorbed rapital and near- ly everything is at a ficticious valuation. This condition brings its direct results to bear upon the working mar. The retail merchant, of course, suffers ac- cordingly, as he is directly de- pendent upon the wage-earner- Industrial enterprises must aban- don development This means, as a matter of course, that, lets material will be used and that less labor will be employed. When the demand for labor dim- inishes and men are out of work there will be a competition that will necessarily bring wages tlown. for labor cost must be re- duced in order to bring prices down. Prices must come down in order to revive the demand for materials. Persistence to this process will only aggravate the situation. There is sure to be resistance because working men seldom realize that they are the worst sufferers from high prices, since the advance in the cost of living that is, of what wages buy, keeps ahead of the advance in wages
What labor most needs is to keep up the volume of produc- tion and keep down its cost. When rising prices produce a check 'jpon production the brunt of reaction is felt first by labor, and it has no reserve to fall pack upon.
The process of adjustment is slow and difficult. But the soon- er this process begins the less severe and prolonged it will be- There is need of easing up It is certainly no time for speculative movements which will interfere with conserving strength for the fall demands. It is a time for conservative calculation, cautious Ct'on, and preparation for en- durance of sue" strain as cannot be avoided.—Merchants Journal.
HENCOOP TURNIPS.
Mr. J. F. Godley Raises Them
Mr. J- F. Godley, who was formerly a farmer in the Chcco- winity section of Beaufort county and a large tobacco grower, usually has something to tell the newspaper man when he comes this way. On a recent visit here he told us that because of the scarcity of labor and trouble to control hands, he rented out his farm and the first of this year moved to Ayden where he rent- ed from Smith Brothers a house with an acre or two of land sur- r.mndine;it.
Loving to do a little cropping himself, he set about cultivating the patch of land around his home, which he said lie found very productive because of the line fertilizers the Smith boys had been putting on it. His crop this year was mainly tur nips and beets, and he says he raised some whoppers, some tur- nips growing as large as 27 inches in circumference.
Mr. Godley went on to tell that his wife raised chickens too, and whenever a hard rain came it fell to his lot to get the biddies under shelter. One day in" a heavy downpour he could not find a favorite hen and her brood in their accustomed roaming places. After wading around in the rain for some time he went to the turnip patch and was surprised to see the hen's head sticking out the si(!e of a large turnip. An investigation showed that moies had eaten out the inside of the turnip and the shell made a good coop which the hen had taken to protect her brood from rain.
Mr. Godley says he can raise hen coop turnips for anybody that wants them.

Some Interesting Happenings in the Capitol City.
B R. Lacy, Jr., son of State Treasurer Lacy, will sail from Philadelphia September 21st for Oxford, England, to enter the University there. He has been awarded one of the Rhoaes scholarships for North.Carolina.
Governor Glenn expressed himself this morning as being highly gratified at the victory won for prohibition in Anson county Saturday. He says he felt sure temperance would win but the majority rolled up was surprisingly large. He says the result simply shows the steady march that temperance is mak- ing in this State, leading surely and with rapid strides to the time when the liquor evil will be swept from every section and locality of the whole State.
The fact that sixty-one out of the seventy-one law students who undertook the examination before the Supreme Gourt last Monday for law licenses passed successfully is declared to be a very high trioute to the thorough work 'hit is being done in tne several law schools of the State, especially in view of the fact that the examination sprung on the boys was radically different from the questions propounded
I in past years, the whole series I being pronounced by those com- petent to judge exceptional^ hard- The corporation commission will
on Wednesday hear complaints regarding the breaking of rail- way connections at Sanford and Maxton- One of these connec- tions has been broken for some time. Of course the commission vvill look into the matter very carefully indeed- It has full power under the law to require connections to be made in case i«- finds that they are necessary for the public service.
In response to an inquiry today Weather Observer Ihteen in- forms your correspondent that the drought is severe almost over all the state antl in some sections quite serious. No rain fell here during the past week nor was there any at other places except in the southeast section. Wil- mington and round about. He .-.ays he understands that the drought is causing cotton to shed and is doing that crop consider- able damage in some sections.
Everett Spence, a young white man who has been in Wake jail for more than a year awaiting trial for the killing of Walter Chavis, colored, has been releas- ed on $500 bond. The bond ori- ginally required was $2,500 but an order by Judge Long at the last term of court lowered the amount to $500. This ho has given- Spence was in company with a number of friends, intoxi- cated, and as they were driving by a negro church their vehicle broke down "Preaching" was in prepress with a big crowd at the roadside. Words passed between the white men and the negroes and the white men fired into the crowd of negroes, Chavis being killed by a bullet from Spence's revolver.
INCENDIARY FIRES
Believed to bt Work of Organized Band of Negroes.
Charlotte, Sept, 3. -Three more barns added to the list of those destroyed by fire of sup- posed incendiary' origin during the present year.

J. Orr, loss $600; the other the property of S. B. Smiih, loss $500. The entire popululun of the county is wrought up over ihe renewal of the barn burmi g mania, which is believed to' be the work of an organized band of negroes.

Worthy cf His Hire.
Mr. Hearst, in his Jamestown Speech on Labor Day, said:
"Get us all regard one another as fellow workingmen and treat one another with consideration and tolerance. Let 118 all labor
harmoniously to createSwealth in order that there may be the greatest possible amount to be
justly dividoi'.
"The working man is worthy of his hire, the business man of his profit. Thejman who digs the precious metal for the earth is worthy of his wage. The man who tells him where to [find the gold is worthy of his profit, too. The great financial promoters
organizers, executives of Amer ica. are worthy of recognition and reward."
BOOZE IS DOOMED
Asheviik October 8.
Asheville, N. C, Sept. 3. There's going to be a hot com- paign pulled of here shortly. It's the old liquor fight again and the temperance people of Asheville are going to win unless all signs fail. Thev have gone into the fight very deliberately; their plans have been well executed and they firmly believe that when the ballots are counted on the evening of Tuesday, October 8, a handsome majority will be found for prohibition. That the fight will be a hot proposition is evident. The saloon advocates and saloon keepers are not as- leep. They are awake to the fact that they are probably making the last stand and they are going to die hard.

W In pe the social row tl at has cropped out between high officers of the Jamestown expo- sition, will not have any effect on the public as to keeping them from attending. The exposition is really too creditable to miss, deserves well of the people, and should not suffer because of spals between the officers for social recognition.
hi! been translated to them. their leader said:
"We arc overwhelmed that th< ruler of the city should greet us. We have never been spoken to by the officials of our own coun- try except 'n terms of harshness, and, althoUffh we have heard of tiie great land of freedom, it is very hard to realize that we are permitted to grasp the hand of th,'great man. We will do all wo can to make good citizens."
The Russian Jews, who know nothing of government except persecution, areof course aston- ished to be greeted by th" head iffieial of the city where they la.id. Th'-' action of the mayor will have a wholesome effect and will bring other immigrants to this country, which is in need of men of brains and muscle to ram the wheels of prosperity.
alveston always sets a good
example.
"SHOULD HE BE PARDONED? "
Under the above caption the [Wilmington Messenger writes juite lengthily of the effort being made in Rowan county to secure the paidon of George Hall, the one man out of a crowd of four thousand convicted in that county of participation in the lynching of the Gillespie negroes and sen- tenced to fifteen years in State's prison.
The Messenger, persuing it-- We have little doub* that most usual course, runs along in the. readers of this article have often
lawlessness. We are bitterly op- posed to Lynch law.
But did one man lynch the Gillespie negroes, or did four thousand men? One man was picked from the crowd, tried, convicted and sentenced to fif- teen years at hard labor.
Now, "should he be pardoned?"
THE GARDEN SPOT
OF THE
heard the expression that "Pitt county is the garden spot of the world." Tuey may not have grasped the full meaning of such an expression, or really given it more than passing thought, but it will not take much serious thought and careful investigation to convince them that it is not far from true. Pitt is already a great county, yet her possibilities are without bounds. Her lands are fertile and yield abundantly almost every known' crop. Her

Glenn under the guise of advis- ing him to "go slow" when the petition comes in asking for tin- man's pardon. Hut truthiully. nevertheless, the Messenger says
"Now the question is: Should the governor grant the pardon? Alter the judge who tried tht case and heard all the evidence had deudei that this man had committed an offense for which fifteen years' imprisonment the penitentiary was mild enough punHiment-and he was not a Jeffreys either -should the gov- ernor reverse the finding of that judge and declare that the latter had imposed a line fifteen times too severe? That is the question.

At first he concluded Pitt county was too slow for him so decided to look elsewhere for a place to engage in business- He traveled north, west and south prospecting, and finding no place he liked better returncdlhome and settled down to business and made a great success of it. He closed his story by saying ^Young man. Pitt county is the garden spot of the world Stick to her."
This occurred twenty seven years ago, and the young man of that day, now in a large business himself, says every year he is reminded of the truthfulness of the words of his old employer.

One way to look at that it's alright—.another way it's all wrong. There is at least anoth- er side of it. Four thousand peo- ple- a mighty concourse of North Carolina men, not a liowling mob without sense or reason—arose in their might, and despite the urgent pleadings of Senitor Overman, Solicitor Hammer, •Judge Long and Mayor Rowden, took the three hell-owned, coiv fessed brutes, perpetrators of a most atrocious crime, from the jail and hung them to trees and ushered their wicked souls to the bar of that Eternal Judge whose findings are unerring and whose judgments are just. What does it prove? It shows that the peo- ple are disgusted with the slow, tedious process of the law. and they are opposed to delayed jus- tice. They feel that where an atrocious'erime has been perpe- trated that adequate and condign punishment should be immediate- ly and surely administered. And this mighty gathering of people, seeing the course the case was taking, and knowing from lorn,' observation that justice would be long delayed, took the case in their own hands and visited upon the confessed murderers the punishment they so richly merit-
are others that would show equally as well. In the year 18912 several farms were sold at auction before the court house door in dividing the estate of a
large land owner. One of these farms sold for $550. The pur- chaser went to work on it, through these fifteen years has supported his family and had a surplus to make desired improve- ments, and a few days ago he sold the farm to a neighbor for $lii,O°0. If increasing in value twenty fold in fifteen years was not a good investment, we do not kno N what would be called
lone. And it cannot be said that (the man who piid $10,00 for I this farm did not know what he was doing, for he has lived right adjoining it all the time, knew what his neighbor paid for it fifteen years ago and was enough ratified with its growing value to give $10,(HH) for it. Nor does this particular farm adjoin a (own that made it so increase in value, for its location is fully ten miles from Greenville,
We heard another man who owns a farm not from town say that he now receives in rent from it, his share being one-third, more than the entire proceeds of the farm amounted to twenty years ago.

Remarks the Durham Herald very truthfully:
We hope that the governor will see fit to pardon Hall. If his punishment could be pointed to as a warning to other men who might desire to take part in a similar crime it would be differ- ent, but this is not the case and nobody will pretend that it is. Hall was simply unfortunate in being nobody.
