Rome of the colored people are rais ins a great row about the enforcement of the state law on the street railroad In Augusta. The Union, one of the weekly colored papers, advises the colored people to not ride on the cars. President Dyer informed the Union that Ills company was forced by the people through an act of the legislature to pursue such a course. He said they were getting along all right under the old arrangement of allowing passen gers to select their own seats, but when the law was shoved nt him there was no alternative for the road. The Union says the new arrangement Is “upon the compliant" of a few cltl xens of the great and autocratic city of Summerville’ 'and counsels: ' Purely as a matter of piLaetple the colored people of this city should leave the street cars entirely to the whites until the hateful order is hauled down."

I bought new machinery and more of it as tima want on. I built shads and then more sheds and from time to time made additions to the big factory. I bought stock largely and carefully increased the volume of products on hand, and constantly made the grade better and more uniform. Early I inaugurated an entirely new system throughout the business to give every reasonable facility for manufacturing, storing, shipping and accounting always with a view to re ducing tha cost and perfecting the ser vice. I adopted rules which gave my customers every assurance of the fairest kind of treatment, and I made an open offer to return their money in every instance when they didn't get everything just exactly as agreed. What was the result of ell this? Trade increased —slowly at first. Then faster and still faster as the Com pany became better and more favor ably known. My yearly business, measured in dollars and cents, is now nearly twice as targe as it was when I began. It is practically about three times as large in volume of products, as prices are very much lower than they were seven years ago.
