COT ION MILLlMi IN M.lllH L1ISA frOU J I LV liBU' The Nt'.rth Carolina dailies keep wel! up in reporting new industrial enter prises fur this state. Other newspapers and commercial papers gather up monthly reports from the south which contain much or all of what has been done in North Carolina for the preceding- month repeating nearly all of the news items previously reported ad ding now and then one to the list. We take from a long report in the New York Journal of Commerce some news as to our own state.. It will reiresn memories and bring all that was done "in July together making it more im pressive. . There was decided activity in the south in July, although thenumber of new spindles falls slightly behind the June reports. ' The resume is 109.COO snimllM and 1.214 looms. This means $2,250,000 added to previous invest ments. Several New Kiigland compa nies are investigating in the south, and it is confidently expected that very soon their announcements will appear regarding some decided south ern branch. The companies referred to are among the most prominent of New England manufacturers and doubt less their plants will be of a good size. Now for new enterprises in North Carolina in cotton milling. The High Shoals Manufacturing Company, of High Shoals, is organized, and a mill will be built to cost $100,000. It will be gin with 5,000 spindles and 150 looms. Falls of Neuse, near Raleigh, will have a new mill, and an effort is mak ing to built a $500,000 plant. Greensboro is to have a third carpet mill. Why cannot Wilmington have one or five? At Mayodan, N. C, a cotton mill has hpen incomorated. capital stock named at $150,000. Trenton mills, at Gastonia, increases plant by $65,000. A mill company has been incorporat ed at Sanford, with a capital stock at $100,000 with privilege to increase to $500,000. Carolina mills have been incorporat ed at Haw River, capital stock $60,000 In June a company was incorporated by several of the Holt family in Ala mance county,' capital stock $20,000. The Holts own and control perhaps fif teen mills. . At Elon college the Ossipee mille.will be improved in many ways. At tJreensboro the Hucomuga mills will enlarge building and add forty five looms. Laurinburg has incorporated a cotton mill named Scotland,; capital stock $50, . 000, with privilege to increase to $100, 000. The Coleman mills at Concord, to utilize negro labor, has 5,000 spindles and 140 looms. The capital will be in creased from $50,000 to $100,000, and a new addition made of two stories. War ren C. Coleman is president. At Waxhaw, the cotton mills will be increased from 2,500 to 5,000 spin dles. At Elizabeth City they are extending a m'ill that will make it 7,000 spindles in stead of 5,000 as now. - .' The large cotton mill in Wilmington, the Dtlgado, is being pushed rapialy forward. It is time now to start some others here. The Holts find it profita ble to erect $20,000 and $60,000- plants. Why not have them in Wilmington of ' many sizes. There ought to be twenty cotton mills running here: now. In adition to the above we note the following other industries: The Dur ham hosiery mills, to increase plant aO per cent., with new building and new machinery. Wilmington should have at least two large hosiery mills. This is the place for all milling investments. Louisburg is to have a rope and twine factory it is hoped. Why has not - Wilmington one of these? Stir your stumps. An oil and fertilizer company . has been organized at Monroe with capital stock from $21,000 to $50,000. The new roller mill at Albemar ie is ready for business. It is stated. by the Journal of Com merce that a movement at Mooresviile for a new cotton mill promises to come to a definite issue. Hurrah for North Carolina. It offers such oppor tunities to investors1 if they could only find it out. If northern men would come to this progressive city, and study .well the situation, they would put their money in investments here. Witn so many railroads and such fine water transportation Wilmington possesses many and great attractions. There must be added the Erwin Cotton Mills Company, '. of Durham, that plans to build two cotton mills in Chatham county. It has bought the Pittsboro Record savs. 1.000 acres of land on both sides of Haw river for a dis tance of about three miles. In addition to the erection of these cotton mills the company will also construct a' rail road from their property either to Pittsboro. or to some point on the Ral eigh and Augusta Air Line railroad. Already one route has been partially surveyed and several will be surveyed before a location is made . if ACTS FOR IN V1CSTOKS TO OON " SIDEK The southern cotton mills last' year did a very profitable business. Nearly all made money perhaps all. Cer tainly the mills managed; well prosper ed, and secured satisfactory dividends, Many in North Carolinta and other southern states made "big money." We heard recently of one North Carolina cotton mill paying for itself in .two years. But the owner knows his bus! ness thoroughly. We give some re ports from southern) mills for 1898 The profits are all right. Monroe (Ga.) Cotton Mills declared a semi annual dividend of & per cent; Sal isbury (N. C.) Cotton Mills declared a quarterly ot 2 per cent; Raleigh; (N C.) Cotton. Mills declared' a-eeanl-annual of 4 per cent; Manchester Cotton; Mills to surplus;) Gaffney (S. C). Carpt Manufacturing Company, its first year's business, 3 per cent; Odell Manufactur ing Company, of Concord, N. C, semi annual of 4 per cent; Palmetto .(Ga.) Cotton Mills, annual of 6 per cent; Louisville (Ky.) Cotton' Mill Company regular semi-annual of 3 and1 extra of per cent; Eufaula (Ala.) Cotton Mills semi- annual of 3 per cent. We know that some North Carolina cotton mills have greatly excelled the above. One declared a dividend! of 38 per cent. Others made 20 and 25 . per cent or more. Charlotte is a remarkably progres sive city. . It has made a great gain in population within a decade. They talk of 27,000 inhabitants, and' think they have that many. Do you want an explanation or do you seek for the cause of such growth? Its prosperity s most marked, and the Observer gives the explanation is a brief para graph in its issue of Thursday. It says: The cotton mills and the allied in dustries of Charlotte give employment to 4,000 . wage-earners, who support 10,500 people. The money paid out in wages and salaries amounts to ?l,0d5, 000 per year. The market value of Charlotte's yearly product of manufac tured goods is ?6,0O0,000. - .x "These figures are not wild estimates as the method by which they were ob tained! will show." It got its facts and figures from, the mill men . themselves. It says: 'The cotton mill, indeed, may be re garded as the father of prosperity. How true this is, is exemplified in. the case of Charlotte, where an example is afforded of what the textile industry will do for a community. The new edi tion of The Sketches of Charlotte, now on the - press, gives' some information on, this subject that will be of general initerest. There ar twelve cotton mills in Charlotte.. operating 70,000 spindles and 1,500 looms, in the manufacture of hosiery, webbing, batting, wadding, yarns, gray cloth, ginghams, towels, sash cord, . clothes lines, plow, lines and fancy braided goods;" five facto ries for the manufacture of clothing; four iron and machine shops; two oil mills; One fertilizer factory; two card clothing, feed and harness factories; five supply houses; four contracting building and equipping houses and a shuttle block factory." We copy this as a lesson and inspi ration for Wilmington. With like ac tivity, enterprise and "go," with its greater advantages, our little city would now have nearer 40,000 inhabi tants than 27,000. Alas! alas! While Charfotte is indeed a .great .cotton fill ing centre, it is no reason whatever why Wilmington shall not have a great business in all directions as the enter prising city of Mecklenburg. The Ob server gives the following suggestive figures: "Charlotte's important position in. ; this respect is revealed in the publi- ! cation of a map taking in the mills j withim a circle of 100 miles of the city. The map shows nearly 300 cotton mills, ! operating 2,238,451 spindles and 62,355 -looms, or 55 per cent, of all the spin dies and 57 per cent, of the looms in the south. Within, this territory, dur ing three years past, there has been an increase of 617.231 spiudes and 19,382 looms.". We can see no reason why our own town may .not rival Charlotte "and have its own fifteen or twenty cotton.. mills and. scores of other industries that will pay. .,.. w.K ' library to the University, and The Ral- HOMEKOLKS. , , t.gh pogt says th,at Mf Hem.y Weill, of i Ooldsboro, has recently given the uni There are five farms that are worked .. yersity library $1,000 in cash, now bv the state.

It Is simply THAT ABSURD "UTtANIRIlTX AR RANGEUIENT Writing recently of juries and the! absurdity of compelling an unanimous ( agreement of twelve men, we said that it would be better to nave nine to clear pr convict and thU3 prevent so many , miscarriages of justice, tnd to shut out the possibility of eleven men fail-, ing to agree with one juror. As we said in cases when the races are interested if one negro can be secured on a jury it is assured that there will be a mis trial. We are gratified to learn from the Richmond Dispatch of the 2nd in stant that this important question of a change in the jury system is exciting i no little attention. Of this "we did not know when writing two or tnree days ago. We did know, however, that a few years ago there was a good deal said by jurists and others about the failure of jury trial and some improvements or changes were suggested. In the last ten years we nave had occasion to n. fer to the matter many times. That ths question of changing "unanimous juries" is up afresh in encouraging and hopeful, and we hope good results will follow the discussion. The Dispatch says: . "There appears to be a growing; de sire on the part of the bench and bar throughout the land that the old rule rpnuirine unanimity of Jury verdicts in civil cases should be abolished. In ihe July number of the Virginia Law Reg siter Mr. Ben B. Lindsey, of the Colo rado bar, presents an able and lengthy paper, in which he pleads for the inno vation and auotes from many eminent ! men who have condemned the ancient practice. The editor or tne negit.it cordially endorses Mr. Lindsey's sen timents, and adds his own views on the subject." ' We are indeed glad to see this, for we have held for years that the pies ent system was absurd and defective and needed a radical overhauling.' It seems from .Mr. .Lindsey's paper that stubbornness is a great stumbling block in the way of justice. Of course U is, and when it is possible in every case perhaps to put one ignorant, cortupt, purchasable juror in the box the fail ure to obtain a right and reasonable verdict appears at once. It seems from Mr. Lindsey's sensible contention as reported in The Dispatch, and it ;s quite instructive, is that tfie 'i equip ment of unanimity as charged by its nnnnpiits. bas ODened the way to on? stinacy, stupidity, prejudice and brib ery, and frequently tied U12 hands of justice. "And furthermore, the unreasonable requirement is of comparati eiy mod ern origin, and is by no means contem poraneous' with the inception of jury trial. To abolish it wpuld not signify a lack of reverence for the more rever ed Anglo-Saxon precedents. It was not Anglo-Saxon precedents. It was not until the forty-first year of the reign of Edward the Third that it was judi ciously determined that a. yoiji.! of less than twelve was actually a nullity. Indeed, the majority rule prevailed for centuries in Egypt, Greece, Rome, ai d among the institutions of the Britons, Normans, and Anglo-Saxons.
