ROCKINGHAM AND Cotton manufacturing a profit able industry on the Pee Dee at Rock ingham long before Durham wai born or It was ' supposed giant cotton mill woul Jbe . established except upon the ban o'f streams that afforded water .. .. . . . ... Richmond county had men of breadth of vision and practical judgment who became pioneers in what was destined to grow Into' North Carolina's foremost i -Industry. The first mills were small, ((but the men who built them looked "to see them grow slowly and upon solid foundations. The story of the men " who bullded the structure upon which Rockingham's present cotton mills rest is one of inspiration. They looked for no government bounty or protection, they had no desire tu keep aloof from the skilled men and wo men who worked in the mill, they had fl old ' fashioned idea that if they made good products and sold at fair P'" they would succeed They did riot look to get rich Quick by shoddy methods or putting their hands into j the public treasury. Their motto was ""MMw I t.lwo Tha xnntrnlllnir fffctors in the Rockingham mills in the seventies and eighties were the Leaks and the Steeles. and others whose descendants have enlarged their buildings. Mr. Robert L. Steele, for whom the Roberdel mill was named, end Col. Waiter L. Steele, his more ..-vv gifted brother, and the progressive Leak family were among the leaders-, in these years in Rockingham's cotton mill enterprises.' Colonel Steele was one of the ablest men of hlS day, rarely gifted as a public speaker, a past master in repartee, anda learned and trained publicist. In Congress he toqk high rank ns hr would in any assemblage. He mj nevr beguiled into losing his olu ttmev political principles because .he thought he or his neighbors 'might get some Sifts from the government, but preached that public taxation was not "ptrmlssable except for public pur poses. That was the sort of states man7 the", ; Rockingham cotton mills gayev to : Norths Carolina. And that spirit is not dead.' Its manufacturers have, always been true to tnelr po litical - principles ' and have turned a deaf ear to the new brand of surrend ering principle In the hope of getting a little pore for products. As t long as . the solid character and devotion to principle endures, Rockingham will be like; a city set .upon- hill. It will continue ,to grow; and Character will prevent: the wobbly view that la be ing preached by those who see no principle except trying to get an ad vantage of somebody else or obtaining some special privilege. ' :--':- '' . r Later' other public ' spirited . citizens becaihe connected v with : the mills in Rockingham, .and such men as Capt. W.

The eiy names -that appear' in the directory of the old ' company appear toda as officers of the" present mills. ThVflrtt ' directors v were ' Robert J. Steele, W, F. Leak and James P. Leak. At meeting held in IS 37 R.' J. Steele wasInstructed to fio to the New Eng la'ndS States and buy 'machinery. He went bought machinery and ordered It: shipped to Fayettevllle.

P'"t rate of governmental expenses with the neighborllness and the one- j nobody lnCongress proposed abolish ness of Rockingham people. In most i ing all taxes on tobacco. As long as communities where factories abound there is unfortunately a chasm which needs to be bridged between the peo ple who work In the mills and those who own and control the mills. This change- has largely come about be cause the old time intimate associa tion between mill owner and mill ope rator has passed or is passing away. In Rockingham the spirit of mutual intercourse and mutual helpfulness and mutual friendliness abides in a larger degree than In any other place of which I have knowledge. Esto perpetua. In this particular, as In its progress and Its ability to seise upon and make profitable modern business and manufacturing methods, without losing the old Ideals and with out departing from the landmarks which the fathers have set, Rocking ham furnishes an example for every community in the State. Very truly yours, JOSEPHUS DANIELS. . i. ... i THE SENATE AND BILL. THE TARIFF The Senate has finished with the tariff, and has put a finish upon the hope of the people who were promised a "revision downward." Only one Democrat voted for what will come to be known as "the twentieth century bill of abominations." If the House Is true to the pledges to the people, there will be a dead-lock, for the trusts own the majority of the Senate and it will agree to no measure that does not guarantee continued robbery of the people for the enrichment of the few. The House will "higgle" and there will be "dog-fair for Cannon and Payne owe their place to their .-subserviency to the interests" Just as Aldrich and Penrose do. The Re publican confrerees will !" compromise by sacrificing the rights of the people to a genuine "revision : downward," and the 1909 tariff bill will be. as bad as the Dingley act, A Indeed the New York Tribune says the Senate bill is "the Dingley act redrafted.- There were ten Republican Senators who refused to vote for the bill, which represents for the Republicans "party perfidy and party dishonor." These ten Republican Senators come from the Middle West. They come from States that, with two other adjacent States, gave a Democratic gain of over a million votes in, the j last election. These men know that but for Taffs pledge of genuine "revision down ward" they, could not have held their States la v the Repoblfcaft boVum'n, And even -with that pledge Indiana and Nebraska gave Democratic majorities and Indiana lost a senatorshlp. These ten, senators have made, a consistent and able fight to redeem the pledges they made, to their constituents. -Of course they are committed to, the doc trine of protection and thst led them Into many errors, but the spectacle of ten Republicans refusing to have a share in party 'perftdy and -party dls-i I honor" is one that is altogether whole some, They- stood on their party's platform; Aldrich stood on the trusts' platform. In the crisis Taft deserted the' ten and stood with "Aldrich Just as air Republican presidents must do. These ten senators have taught , the people that they need hope . for no genuine tariff revision downward from the Republican party. : There ; 'are many Republicans who do not wear the , trust collar, but they are in a hopeless minority. The trusts own the party, and It does their bidding Every Democratic senator except McEnefy, of Louisiana, voted . against the bill. They had previously lined up' solidly for the sort of Just Income tax the national platform demanded. Their record on the Income tax is so notable andjso wise and patriotic that upon that Issue the Democratic party's attitude must , win ' respect and ap proval That is an issue that wilt not down, and upon' it tho Democrats will be able to fight with vigor and with out division. It is to be regretted that upon any schedule the party divided and .that .some, senators, forgot the solemn pledge ot the party In demand ing' special tariff favors f6n special local, .interests.' . Upon nearly all questions the Democrats voted right. but there were enough inconsistences and fights for special favors to almost neutralize the flfht made for; the tra ditional, policy', of the pstyv, 1 .No" minority ever had a better opportunity to convert Itself into a majority and no -minority ever failed more lamenta bly than did the. majority of the Dem- ctratlc senators. . If they, had hoi presented en unbroken, front on the income tax and if able leaders Dad not shown up trust control the record Of the Democratic senators would have been such, as to injure the party, As It is the inconsistency. of so many, upon some local matter took away the pres tige which a consistent and vigorous and united fight by Democratic sens tors all along the line would have given, t the ' party. The Democrats deserve to win the next Congress, but the Inconsistency of Democratic sena tors has Imperilled a victory they bould have made certain. ; ' - - j '' -. 5; "will it help farmers? For a long time many tobacco farm era have urged the passage of a law that would permit them to sell to bacco In the hand without paying any tax on it The Senate has given them that right, coupled with a condition that when the sa! exceeds ten pounds a, record shall bo kept for tho benefit of the internal revenue service. Under the present law the farmer' may sell his tobacco, but it does not allow his vender to transfer it without paying a tax of six cents a pound. Senator Bradley told the Senate that this pro hibition was the cause of much of the disturbance In Kentucky that culmin ated In the Night Rider trouble. V The restriction imposed may defeat thepurpeso of tht bill, v Tho Tobacco Dealers Association say ' this change will not help the farmers; many farm ers think it will. Only by practical operation can that be determlnedi Re moving all restrictions and tax on to bacco might be the best legislative help to tobacco farmers, but ati the the tobacco trust has the power t;o fix the price of the farmer's tobacco, can anything really help the farmers? Judge Landls and the Federal au thorities could not collect that i big fine from the Standard Oil Company, but the States seem to be able to do something along that line. Texas has collected a very considerable penalty, and Mississippi is after the big monopoly for some $11,000,000. 'The 'States, on certain lines at least, seem to be more powerful than the Federal government, even after years of de liberate efforts to rob the States of their original authority," says the Columbia State. ''But Texas Is the only State that has gone after them without gloves. Most States pass pink tea laws and then let them rest In In nocuous desuetude. CAPT. J. G. ROXEY EXPL.VIXS WHY TODACCO WAS SIHPPED. Denies That lie Had Orxlcrs to Ship So It Could Escape Taxation. (Special to News and Observer.) Wilson. N. C. July 9. Captain J. O. Roney. the "Wilson manager of the American Tobacco Company ,says the publication of the article in the Wil son Times, copied into the News and Observer yesterday, has a tendency to do the company he represents, an injustice when It intimates that the tobacco was shipped away from Wil son to evade paying tax on same; that the American Tobacco Company (with tho exception of a few years since storing Ira Wilson) has paid more tsx to State, county and town than all of the other tobacco inter ests combined; that instead of Wil son and Wilson county losing about $3,000 annually that the State, county and town tax amounts to from $4,000 to $6,000 annually; says that he was not Instructed to have the tobacco in transit on the first day of June to evade taxation, as intimated above. The amount of leaf tobacco ship ped from Wilson by the American To bacco Company from January 6. 1908, to April 14. 1909. was 5,468 hogs heads, or about 6,000,000 pounds. What tlie Times Says. Referring tshe statement of Capt Roney the Times says: "With reference to the amount of tobacco given in for taxation by the company tho following will prove of interest: "In 1005 8218,080. "In 1908 none. "In 180T SS6.92S. "In 1908 8178.650. "In 1909. none. . "Wo asked the Captain if tobacco in transit on the first day of June was given in at its destination. He replied that he thought so, but was not ab solutely sure of It. v. r 1 "We. desire to say that since the city and county have felt they were com pelled to increase the tax rate we have spent all the time we could spare from our other duties making inves tigations as to the. necessity for this action.. Realizing that the revenue from the dispensary was suddenly taken away and In view of the public Imnrnvement. hnth 4n tt tnn and township and . theH Increased. . revenue demanded in some school districts of the county, the Increase In the I rate eemed Justified, though naturally we are.-opposed to an increase If it can possibly be avoided. So, while mak ing these investigations our attention was called to the fact that there wluld be some $3,000 decrease of rev enue by reason of the shipment away of tobocco that last year was valued at $178,650. :'' V . "The further Information was se cured from what we deemed as are- liable source that the bulk of . this tobacco left here the latter part of May. and naturally we asumed it was sent away by the company In order to evade taxation."
