F the textile industry is a major one.
facts and figures' of cotton production
and manufacture are of particular in
f terest. Such facts are given in a re
cent report by the Department of oom
§4 meree. the report covering the textile
I industry during 1925. It is certain
now that the cotton crop for the year
was more than 15,000,000 bales, the
report says, adding the following
p data:
H' American exports ot raw cotton for
I the first 11 months of 1925 were ap
j| proximntel.v 1.800.000 bales in exeess
of those in tile corresponding period of
l„ 1924. World mill takings of Ameri-
I* can cotton for the first eleven and one
; half months of 1925 were about 4.000.-
E 000 bales more than during the same
' t period of the preceding year. Ameri
can mills consumed almost 800.000
s bales more cotton than in the first 11
£ months of 1925 than in the like pe
i riod of 1924.
, American cotton prices were lower
I and steadier. In 1924 cotton ranged
from 35 to 21 cents a pound and aver
§£" aged nearly 28 cents. In 1925 it
ft ranged from 2(1 to IK cents and aver
|t aged about 23 1-2 cents a pound.
#: On the whole cotton mills in the
b United States were more active, the
| spinning branch having operated at
... about 92 per cent, of capacity during
the first 11 months of 1925 compared
with 77 per cent, for the corresponding
S* period of the previous year. While
| no produet’on figures are oviilable. it
§ may reasonably assumed that the mills
are in a much more favorable position
Rj, than in. 1924. says the Department.
■K In 1925 the United States produc
t yd and imported approximately 00.-
Ev;lBO.OOO pounds of rayon as.compared
p with about 39,000.000 in 1924.

Hi ’American exports of cotton piece goods
£ reached nearly half a billion yards.

P 000,000 square yards as compared with
C 100.000.000 for the corresponding
p months of 1024. Imports of unbleach

CAN SENATOR SIMMONS WIN?
Senator Simmons has served notice
on the Republicans that he is dis
pleased with the so-called “non-Parti
. sail” tax law drawn up in the House
committee and he wants a reduction
in taxes of half a billion dollars. That
is about $170,000,000 more than is
proposed by the House bill.
When the measure sponsored by
Senator Simmons was first given to a
Senate committee it was rejected. That
means it will go to the floor on a min
ority report. That's all right. The
Senator can get his message across just
as good on a minority report as he
could oil a majority report. The
House Democrats seemed unwilling to
make a determined fight on the tax
measure, agreeing to tlie “non-parti
san” plan that proves to be practical
ly a Republican plan. In the Senate
things will be different. Senator Sim
mons may never be able to put his
plan across but at least he will have
the satisfaction of trying and his con
stituents will know that he didn’t give
up without a fight.
The Democrats have always been
the champion of the people. The fight
being made by Senator Simmons
proves this. He wants a law that will
bring tax reductions to the greatest
number of people. The Republican
plan aids the big man, the wealthy
man more than the man of moderate
means. That is to be expected. That
is a Republican policy just as it is a
Democratic policy to work for the
masses.
If the Senate Democrats can’t get
their measure across they can at least
show the people that they are on to
the Republican tactics. They can pro
claim again their interest in the man
of moderate means.
SIMMONS KEEPING EYE
ON DUKE TAX MATTER
Tells McLean Effort to Save Huge
Sum in Taxes Progressing Satis
factorily.
Washington. Jail. 14.—Senator F.
M. Simmons today wired Governor
Mcl.ean that he sees no need of his
coming to Washington on Saturday
with Dr. W. S. Rankin, director of
hospitalization of the Duke Founda
tion, with regard to legislative action
to relieve the foundation of the pay
ment of several million dollars in in
heritance taxes.
The Senate finance committee, of
which Senator Simmons is senior
Democratic member, will consider the
Duke tax question when it takes up
the general subject of inheritance
taxes, according to Senator Simmons.
Senator Simmons has been conferring
with members of the committee about
the matter and a bill drawn at his
request was recently introduced by
Senator Overman, who was sent a
copy of the bill. This bill, which em
bodies the ideas of Senator Simmons
and some Republicans as well, is now
before the committee.
Governor McLean's wire to Senator
Simmons follows: "Dr. Rankin de
sires that I accompany him to Wash
ington to discuss with you and com
mittee if you think best the inheri
tance tax matter as it relates to the
Duke Foundation. Please wire if
you think it advisable and if so,
will it be possible to see you on Sat
urday of this week?"
Senator Simmons' answer is as fol
lows: "Your wile. Matter of inheri
tance tax Duke Foundation proceed
ing fairly satisfactorily in committee
and I am giving close attention to it.
I would, of course, be glad to see you
and Doctor Rankin if you should
come, although situation respecting
this matter does not in my judgment
demand your presence here at this,
time.” ' '• •

Sheriff G. T. Rhynn, of Gaston
county, hurried to the scene from
Gastonia and with a posse of a dozen
armed men late tonight had Vandyke
at bay in the home of his mother
in-law. Mrs. Lester Dellinger, where
he took refuge following the shoot

to capture him without killing him
first. Jle would permit the sheriff
and members of the posse to enter

-! Waahlgton, Jan. 14—Senator Sim
. ’ mens today called the attention o i
; the senate sharply to the prbpagan
-3 da that is being used by the treasury
and the White House to fight the
democrat proposals—propaganda that
' is meant to divert the people of the
country from considering democratic
proposals on their merit*.
> Senator Simmons said in his state
ment :
a “Exercising their right, the minqr
" ity members of the finance commit
' tee. through me, as ranking members
-of the minority, have indicated their
- puriwse to offer certain amendments
l to the revenue bill recently passed by
t the house.
. "Those amendments relate to very
important matters connected with
the bill, especialy with reference to
reductions proposed to be made in
1 taxes upon individual incomes. They
attempt to remedy gross inequalities
■ in the reductions accorded those
with incomes in excess of $100,900
as compared with reductions allowed
on incomes between $200,000 and
SIOO,OOO. Our purpose is t« bring to
the attention and consideration of
the senate and of the country this
discrimiating feature, involving an
average reduction in percentage of
five and one-half greater in favor of
tbe large income tax payers above
the SIOO,OOO line as compared with
the average reduction allowed to
tax payers whose incomes are below
sloo,OttO, who constitute an over
whelming majority of the prosperous
and successful citizens of the United
States, who are themselves actively
engaged in business.
Merits of the Case.
“Interviews given out ostensibly
from the white house, and articles
appearing in the great metropolitan
papers, which usually reflect the
view of the administration, have up
to this time practically refused to
discuss the merits Os either the min

reduction of surtaxes or of the other
proposition submitted by the minor
ity, and base their comments and
objections upon the suggestion
adroitly made that ’he effect of the!
action of the minority in offering i
the proposed amendment will be to |
delay action on the tax revision bill |
beyond the first day of March, there- i
by practically defeating any legisjh- j
tion that would reduce taxes upon [
incomes for the year 1925.
"This is evidently an organized ,
and concerted propaganda to alarm 1
i the public and to divert the atten

the minority proposition, with the j
view of creating sentiment in the
country that unless the minority snr- ;
renders its rights of amendment nnd I

pass as it came from the house with- I

the taxes on their incomes for 1925. j

have referred, which is designed to

and induce them to bring pressure
upon Congress to act without due
deliberation and donsideratioa in
the matter of the pending tax bill, let
me say that a certain distinguished
democrat, high in the party national
organization, visited me on yester
day, and upon his laving I was
asked some questions by the press
with reference to my conversation
with him. 1 was asked if he came, as
they said had been rumored, to urge
that democrats cease their objection
to certain provisions of the revenue
bill, and allow the “non-partisan”
bill of the house to pass without
further amendments. 1 answered
then that there was absolutely no
truth in any such suggestion; that
neither this man nor any other
democrat had ever suggested to me
that we were endangering legislation
reducing taxers by offering our
amendments: and I added that I was
certain, from my information, that
the experience of all other minority
members of the finance committee
was similar to mine"
Mr. Simmons added:
"I notice this morning, in certain

i CHAPTER XVlll—Continued
Connemara was half stunned by
the words. v Were they spoken
, through chance, or by a wild guess,
or because her head had become un
covered in the furious struggle? She
raised searching finger* and found
that the bathing-cap effect was still
firmly in place. Sweetie asked no
greater advantage of the gods of
war than this instantaneous truce.
She dragged both hands free. One
she clapped over Coftnemara’s
mouth; the other she reached up to
the great key of the front door and
turned it. The door swung slightly
open with a pathetic squeak.
As far back as Connemara could
remember, it had always creaked
that way.: A cool draft of air laden
with the odor of whiskey fanned
her nostrils. She sensed some im
minent danger more horrible than
any that had gone before. The
rough, iron fingers of a man encir
cled her throat and began slowly to
tighten. She heard Doc’s raucous
voice Whisper, “Gimme something,
Sweetie, to tie up. This dame
has made trouble enough for a
while.”
CHAPTER XIX
By John V. A. We*y«r
Sweetie moved quickly, flipped
the Dclt from Connemara's raincoat,
and thrust it into Doc’s free hand.
At the same time, she. held out £
The rough, iron fingers of a man
encircled her throat.
decidedly grimy handkerchief. Con-
I nemara’s reeling brain received an
other jolt. Chloroform!
"Use t'uis,” Sweetie was saying
rapidly, “we don’t want that hell
cat of an aunt she's got to come
bouncin’ down here with those other
dumb eggs. This is just a little pri-
I vate party”—and she leered male
volently at Connemara.
The girl mustered her strength
for one last desperate effort. A
sickening-sweet odor stole into her
nostrils. The pressure upon her
windpipe was suddenly freed. She
opened her mouth to gasp for the
breath which would be expelled in
• a shriek—and found herself chew
ing upon the filthy piece of cam
bric. A strangled snicker shook
her. Chlorofon:—well, hardly. She
recognized the odftr now—“Quel
ques Fleurs”—and evidently Sweetie
had earlier poured half a bottle
upon It. Sweetie would. That was
her idea of subtle attraction. Con
-1 nemara was overcome by the weak
> ness of relief.
| Meanwhile Doc was taking ad
i vantage of her limpaess to truss her
1 bands neatly behind her back.
\ Sweetie dragged a wicker chair up
I behind She helpless girl, and pushed
| her firmly into it. Then, with hands
on hips, she stood, grimly humor
ous, surveying the victim.
Connemara gulped. Her throat
fet-hed from the choking, her pride
nqss in tatters from the realization
I *f how easily she had been put hors
• ie combat, and the stale perfume
was rapidly making her very ill. A
large, round tear rolled from each
tbvely eye and slid quickly down
each symmetrical cheek.
Sweetie,- beholding the tears, sud
denly exchanged her sardonic ex
pression for one of pity. She lean
ed over, and with the sleeve of her
awn blouse gently wiped the tears
; I sway. Again Connetqara was sur-
I prised by the complex character of
this stran‘ge girl of another caste.

’># * ’if
and feet used frantically Jn a desper- 1
ate struggle; and now—this genuine I
’ tenderness.
i She listened to what Sweetie was - -
• saying: "Don’t you fret, dearie,
■ As long as you keep still, nobody’s*-
; goin’ to hurt you. Why can’t you
I mind yonr own business? That's
I the only reason you keep gcttin’ <
; into jams. Some day you're goin’
to get into some real trouble.”
Cofipemara, ill as she was becom
ing, was still capable of a flash ol
1 amused wonder. So she hadn't yel
1 been m any real trouble! N'o, of
course not, J Such everts as those
of the last twenty-four hours v-cre
mere everyday 'occurrences in the -!j
life of pc-eens him Sweetie and her < \
pleasant entons." i
Sweetie couti.iuc! staring at her 1
thoughtfully. “Listen, Sister, you j
been p-etty square with me. I bet 1
I can trust you if you make a prom- j
ise. Will you keep your trap shut j
if I take the hankie out of it? Nod i
your head it-yptj mean yes.”
Connemara’s betuA.tr.ed 'heed 1
wagged violently up and do.vn.
Sweetie removed the gag.
Connemara used her first gasping j
breath to say, in a low tune, some
whht incoherent with* an hysterical i
giggle, “Just for that I’m go'-rtg to
give you a bottle of decent per- j
fume.” Then, before Swee:;e could j i
interrupt, “Yon said IVe beer, pret
ty square with you. IWhat made
you turn on me like the?”
“What did you butt in and rry to
.stop me leavin' for?” the other
countered sullenly.
“Well—but you were soyaktog
off, and I don’t understand—•” Con
nemara searched her pseudo mate's ;
face for some explanation.
What she saw in the pursed ftp*' ,
and the cold eyes renewed her a?- ,
prehension. For, following tbe
girl’s glance, she took in the huge
form of Doc, who was staring fix- !
edly in the direction of the heavy i
shrubbery bordering the drive.
There was everything in that alert
tension, that gorillalike hunching of \
tht shoulders, to bring the swift
thought to her mind: “That 'real J
trouble’ Sweetie was speaking about 1
—this is it, this is it!”
Connemara turned so that she
too could focus her gaze upon the
dark, overgrown thicket. There—a J
glostly figure. No—two! Crouch- J
ing in the shadows, deathly still. j
At a step behind her she jumped *
and stifled a scream. Twisting
around, she beheld the unbeautiful
visage of the Swede, who, paying
scant attention to her was grinning
insolently at Sweetie. What could
the return of this ham actor in the
all-star cast forebode? She decide
to attempt facetiousness.
“Dear, dear,” she said, "how job
ly! I was afraid I’d never have the
pleasure of seeing your funny old
face again.” ' v
The Swede vouchsafed her hard* ‘
ly a glance. “Shut your face,” ho
growled, without, however, any
malice in his voice. He was sur
veying the open front door as if a m
new plan were just forming in his
mind. |
“It’s the fifty thousand, of course,” I
drawled Connemara. “What a nice I
game we’re having. Button, button, I
who’s got the money? Sweetie I
found some way to send word to I
you, didn’t she? I ought to have 1
thought of that.” |
The Swede allowed himself an- 1
other baleful grin. “You should I
get all worked up about that fifty 1
grand. That’s all safe and sound. 1
But, gee—-this is sor.ie swell dump, I
I’ll tell the cock-eyed world. I think I
we ought to have a look inside.” »I
He took a step toward the J
door. In the same second Sweetie y
was upon him, clutching his wrist, "
spinning him afound facing her.
“You big boob!” she flung at him,
“if brains was hooch, what you
got is Bevol”
The Swede jerked his arm angrily,
“What’s eatin’ you? I j'tJst thought
we mjght go in and look around—
you never can tell—”
Sweetie strengthened her hold
upon his arm. “And I used to
think ‘sap’ meant somethin’ in a
tree,” came her scornful ihsistcnce.
“We got the dough, ain’t we? What
more do we want? That house is
full of people. We got to make ou*
get-away quick.”
“Well,” began the Swede, “may

think—don’t,” Sweetie finished
scathingly, “Come on, Doc. Let’s
