Aa showing the groaH Inaccuracy of Mr. Baker' conclusions The Tlmea-Dlepatch ' DAJTVIIXE, VA, ' SLANDERED, Tha Juna . number of McClure'a Magatlne contained It characteristic article' front"' Ray, Stannard;- Baker, purporting to show, how discrtmlna tioa in freight rate against Danrllla, Va., had greatly rata ltd If not en- tlroly stopped the gro vth of the city. Tha Richmond Ttmea-Dtapatch knew enongh of tha situation In Danville to feel aura that thla ' artlcla waa groaaly misleading, and ' In order to present the bright aide of tha picture and to undo, as far aa poaalbla, tha mlachlef which the McClure article- haa wrought, ssnt to Danville a iUff correspondent, whoaa long residence In that city mada hlra entirely famil iar with the altuatlon, with Instruc tion to make a full Investigation and report the resultsThis article ap pea red In Sundny'a Timea-Dlapalch and shown that "In spite of any dis advantage in railroad rates. In aplte of the revolution In the tobacco busi ness, Danville haa been making steady progress from year to year. and Is to-day ono of the moat pros perous and progressive ciuea in ine State." We can well bellrve thla. for men like Baker are prone to over step the mark In their teal to make out a case against the corporation In volved In this case the Southern Hallway,. The article In McC'lurc's Is described as profusely Illustrated and abounding In pictures of certain tenantlcss tobacco factories, together with the ruins of one or two that have recently been burned down, and with one or two cuts showing what the article clHlms to be a decline In tin; leaf tobacco business, and the photographs of two of Danville's leading but misguided cltlxens. The article Is entitled "The Way of a Itallroad With a Town, or the Story With the Southern Hallway." The article was an attempt to show that the Southern lttillway. by discrimination against Danville In the matter of freight rates, has killed Dnnvllle, and Its Implied purpose la to work an In fluence on Congress In the matter of I detectives, concocted a which all the papers were to print a i etory that Muth had confessed that j the boy had not been kidnapped and , that ha knew all the lime where he was. This had the desired efTect, for aa soon as Keane read the morning papers he ventured from his hiding place and was arrested by the police and the boy returned to his parents. Even outaldo papers printed the fake tory. all holding the father of the boy up to ridicule and contempt for having caused so much trouble and excitement for nothing. His neigh bors. It Is said, refused to speak to him after reading of his alleged con fession and some even threatened quotes The Danville Register to the effect that daring the past ten years Danville has started. In the manufacture of cotton goods, 4.1,00 spindles, 1,606 looms, and put to work 175 opera tlvea. Hy July 1st of this year this new plant will be exactly double, making a total of M,01 spindles, 3, 212 looms and 1,750 operatives, to which Is to be added 73.90 spindles, 2,653 looms and 1,B50 operatives In operation prior to this period, mak ing a grant total of 159.976 spindles, Violence and he was given to under- j S. looma and 3.SO0 operatives land that he was not longer desired In tha community. Ha stood it all tolcally. In the hope that his boy would be restored to hlra, and In this he was not disappointed. It was an unusual and Interesting case; one that apparently demanded desperate meas ures, even to the point of telling an Untruth that good might result. Thnl the course taken was Justified rannot be denied, and those concerned In car rylng out the bold plan are to be con gratulatad on Its success. The mayor of Haverhill, Mass., Is a friend of the children. A circus is billed to appear In the town shortly and the mayor ordered that the public chools 6e closed so that the children might witness the pHrule nnd per chance HHend the performance under the tents. The hool committee re fused to close the schools to allow theni to attend stid the mayor de clared he would station a police man at every school house door and forbid with an annual pay-roll of 1920,600 and doing a buslncxs of I4.S0O.O06 .year. During this period Danville men have put in operation a plant which manufactures pants, coats, shirts and overalls, putting out from 25,000 to 30,000 dozen per year, em ploying 1.10 operatives and does a business of 1160,000 annually. Dur Ing this period Danville men have started a knitting factory, which em ployes 135 operatives and puts out 235,000 doaeni of Its product annual ly, and the presidents of these respective enterprises assert that that the capacity of both will be practically doubled In tho Immediate future. During this period Danville men have built and equipped a fur niture fiictory which employes HO skilled men, puts out 10,000 finished pieces, and does a business of I13fi, 000 per nnnum. It Is added thst "In Hpltn of any dlsadvnnlfiges of freight rates, Dnnvllle hss a number of wholesale grocery houses, which are the children to enter.
