BIG MILLS MERGER
IN SOUTH CAROLINA
■ NETS 520M0
Cotton Mill Combine Reaches
High Figure and Yarn Mill
Merger of $35,000,000 Is
Being Planned
(By Aw<rf»t«4
CHARLOTTE, N. C.. June 19.—The
Merger germ appeers to have entered
the furniture industry *■ well a « the
textile business. During the past two
months in South Carolina alone cotton
mill mergers aggregating a capitalisation
of 325.W0.ia>? have been announced, and a
185.000.000 southern yarn mill merger is
being talked, while stlU other .gigantic
textile combinations are freely rumored.
FURNITURE MERGER
Just now it is reported from High ■
Point, Winston-Salem and Greensboro, N. '
C.. that a H. 000.000 furniture factory mer
ger is being arranged, to include ten or
more large factories at High Point. Mt.
Airy and Winston-Salem. No authorita
tive statement has yet been made by
those Interested, but the rumor Is gen
eral that the combination will be effected
within the next week or so.
It is reported from Greensboro, though
the report is not officially substantiat
ed, that the Tate Furniture company,
the Continental, the Globe-Home, the
Union, the Kearns, the Dalton and the
Alma Furniture companies, all of High
Point, have signed up to join the mer
ger. According to the plan it is under
stood that a company of leading manu
facturers has been formed for the pur
pose of buying out the properties of the
plants taken in.
It is knows that a meeting was re
cently held for the purpose of consider
ing the proposition, and another is to be
held this week, at which time, it la be
lieved. definite steps will be taken to per
fect tbs plans now being considered. The
furniture industry has grown rapidly In
North Carolina, one town alone. High
Point, now having over SO factories of
this kind.
REASONS FOR MERGER.
The merger business has also come into
favor recently, the objects sought after
I being to strengthen the financial status,
to effect economy by consolidation of
management, to open new markets and
bring about a more satisfactory system
of trade. It is pointed out that aside
from the economic features, a large com
pany is best sble to weather financial
storms which have frequently occurred
w and which have sometimes proven dis
astrous to the smaller concern not ade
quately financed to stand a period of
depression. A great deal of interest cen
ters about the final outcome of the first
big merger in furniture manufacturing tn
* this state.

GEORGIA'S SCHOOLS WEIGHED IN
ANNUAL REPORT OF THEIR HEAD
In his annual report for the yeare 1908
and 1910, M. L. Brittdln, state school su
perintendent, recommends that teachers
be paid monthly; deplores the popular
election of county school commissioners
and recommends county boards of educa
tion; suggests three teacher-training su
pervisors for the teachers' institute; re
fers to the consolidation of schools and
compulsory education, and urges the
county unit plan.
In speaking of compulsory education, he
observes that the state is not able at
the outset, perhaps, to enforce a rigid
compulsory educational law and speaks of
a local option measure, but adds that
It Is doubtful If such a would
be effective. He concludes that the strong
arm of the state is the only means by
which illiteracy may be wiped out.
His report Is now in the hands of the
printer.
STATISTICS OF REPORT.
The following statistics are given at the
opening of his recommendations:

GOOD RAIN ON SUNDAY
BROKE LONG DROUTH
Rain Worth Money Drenched
Atlanta’s Gardens and
South’s Corn and Cotton
The rain that fell on Atlanta, Bunday,
proved one of the moet welcome visitors
In this section of the country in some
time. It had been 18 days since this
stranger had been "In our midst.” mak
ing the longest drouth ever known in the
Gate City since the weather bureau was
established 32 years sgo.
The rain was general over the state
and the eastern half of the cotton belt,
and is said to have been worth hundreds
of thousands of dollars to the country. A
full half-inch fell at the Atlanta weather
station, which was very little compared
to other parts of the city and other points
in the state. Augusta, for Instance, had
as much as 2.92 Inches.
••Who had my umbrella last?" or
"Where did I leave my rain stick?” were
two questions that hit the noodle of
many citizens Sunday when the first
drops of the shower were felt in the aft
ernoon. These showers.came at Intervals
and hit the city in spots. They were un
expected. and lasted only a few minutes.
The lucky few who found umbrellas had
i to brush the cobwebs off of them before
they could be used. Many straw hats
, met a sad fate. The regular rain, which
I counted, did not come until 10:30 in the
' evening. It also caught Atlantians off
their feet, and the stop-over places down
town, between cars, were crowded with
those seeking shelter.
Corn had been the greatest sufferer in
the south from lack of rain, which is
said by authority to have come just in
time to save the crop. Cotton was not
far enough advanced to be affected to any
great extent.
The truck gardeners have also had a
hard time of it for lack of water, many
of the vegetable plants drying up In the
ground. Cabbages have been ruined by
bugs, which were attributed to the dry
spell. In fact many vegetables have been
missing in the markets on account of the
drouth. But it will be a different story
from now on, as the rains will continue.
Cloudy and showery Is the forecast for
Atlanta and vicinity Monday and Tues
day. The humidity Monday was 86 de
grees—just 15 degrees more and there
would have been rain. The thermometer
was only 76 at 10 o’clock In the morning.
The highest, Sunday, was only 89, but
the heat was felt more on account of the
moisture in the air which finally brought
rain. The night was unusually pleasant.

A number of the farmers who have
reached the city are attending the con

reports of the company show that the
organisation is in the best financial con

’ Many Important matters are scheduled
to be considered by the Union Phosphate
company at this meeting. They will in
clude plans for the development of the
company's big phosphate mines in Flori
da. The company owns, so it is under
stood, over 900 acres of the most valu
able ore, and it is possible that imme
diate developments will be ; begun. The
extension and improvements of the pres
ent plant will also be discussed. The
meeting will also name officers for the
ensuing year.
The chief interest hi the convention
will naturally center around the election
of a new chief executive to succeed
President Cabanisa, who cannot hold of

houses valued at >612,641.20 were erected.
“The cost of the average house Is,
therefore, more,” says the commissioner,

BARRETT ADVISES
FARMEHS TO FOHM
116 FEDERATION
National President Says That
World Wide Co-operative
Association Would Result
in Great Good to All Parties
UNION CITY, Ga.. June 19.—The or
ganization of every association of farm
ers in the country into one federation is
earnestly urged by President Charles S.
Barrett, of the National Farmers’ Edu
cational and Co-operative union. In his
statement to»the members of the union
President Barrett says that by federa
tion Is not necessarily meant an organic
union, but a working agreement by
which farmers can co-operate on dis
tributing movements and legislative pro
grams. His statement follows:
NEED OF FEDERATION.
To the Officers and Members of the
Farmers’ Union: *
It is a simple matter of record that the
Farmers’ Union Is the greatest agricul
tural organization In the country and in
history, but there are several score other
farmers* organisations tn the country,
large and small and of varying degrees
of influence and strength.
Sooner or later —sooner, I hope—there
will be a federation between the Farm
ers’ union and these other associations.
By a federation I do not mean necessa
rily an organic union. But I do mean a
working agreement on such features as
,all farmers have in common, perhaps on
co-operative and distributing movements,
and on legislative programs.
Nothing is done in this country without
organization. From the mightiest trust
on down to the smallest and newest bus
iness concern the principle of organiza
tion rules supreme. Organization has
won the world’s battles, whether on the
field. In the counting house, the church
or in political reforms.
When It comes down to the last analy
sis, all the farmers in Amedca have
things in common. On the surface there
may be superficial differences, but the
things that count in your home and in
my home. In your county and in my
county, are just about the same things.
We have all suffered from poverty. The
effects of dishonesty injure us equally.
Prosperity is welcome to us, whether we
affiliate with a farmers’ organization or
go it alone.
AID TO CO-OPERATION.
For these reasons, I want to hasten the
day when we can get every farmer in
this broad land to come in under one roof
and pull in the same harness for those
great big principles that mean so much
to us, to our wives and our children.
, The Farmers’ union doesn’t want to
gobble up every other organization in
sight, butjt does want to do good work
for the American farmer.
He is the man we aie planning and
striving for, whether he has a one-horse
or a 100-horse farm; whether he dry
farms or wet farms, whether he's got a
mortgage on his house as big as a moun
tain or is monarch of all he surveys.
Think about this, members of the
Farmers’ union and officers and mem
bers of other farmers’ organizations.
Consider what we have in common and
what we could accomplish if we got to
gether to fight the common foe, and to
solve problems that are mutual.
I hope to live to see the dawning of
the day when all rural organizations
will have an understanding, and when
every farmer In this country will be or
ganized.
It wllT be better for us. It will be
better for the country.
ASKED FOR A LIME AND
WAS HANDED A LEMON
It was a ten to one shot that any one
who asUed for a dope and lime Sunday
was handed a lemon. This slang ex
pression was a stern reality in Atlanta,
as any one may learn If you should ask
any one who -tried to quench his thirst
with his favorite soft drink. There was
a lime famine In Atlanta, the first time
In many years, and every soda fountain
had to substitute lemon juice, which
was a poor substitute.
It worked a special hardship on the
gin rickey devotee, and Sunday was
such a nice day for that most refresh
ing beverage. There is just something
about the lime, so they say. that makes
the rickey, and this little something

THE TAFTS WILL HE
DRILUANT EVENT

WASHINGTON, D. C-, June 19.—Sev
eral prominent Atlantlans arrived m
Washington this morning to attend the
celebration of President and Mrs. Taft’s
silver wedding at the White, House to
night. John W. Grant, Mrs. Grant and
Miss Margaret Grant came over from
Atlantic City. They were accompanied
by Hugh Richardson. Juuge and Mrs.
Don A. Pardee, Judge and Mrs. William
T Newman. Col. and Mrs. Robert J.
Lowry ana Mrs. Albert » Thorn
ton were among those who arrived by
morning trains from Atlanta.
The president and Mrs. Taft today re
ceived a beautiful gift from the people
of Augusta, presented through fitting
Mayor J. J. O’Connor. It Is a silver
punch bowl with silver waiter, cups and
ladle. Upon receipt of the gift President
Thft sent the following telegram to
acting Mayor O’Connor:
“Mrs. Taft and I have just received
at the hands of Mr. Wright the beauti
ful silver punch bowl, wltn silver waiter
and cups and ladle as an expression of
the congratulations of the citizens of
Augusta upon the occasion of our silver
wedding. Our relations to the people of
Augusta with the last three years have
been so close and so full of pleasure
that we are greatly touched by this ev
idence of their kindly feeling, and I
hope that you will convey to those whose
expressions of friendship are contained
in this gift an assurance of our pro
found gratitude for their thoughtfulness
and generosity. Sincerely yours,' Wil
liam H. Tait.”
Kzilts frpm all parts of the country
continue to pour in upon the White
House. All day Saturday they were de
livered by me wagon load and there
was no cessation today. The presents
will be displayed at tonignt's reception
in the red room.
The Washington hotels are overrun
with out-of-town visitors come to attend
the reception. The weather is fair and
cool, and the White House lawn will be
opened tonight for the accommodation
of the crowds. Ten thousand incan
descent electric lights have been strung
through the trees.
Colonel Lowry and Judge Pardee call
ed at the White House this morning to
pay their respects to the president.
They spent some little time with Mr.
Taft, wishing him many happy returns.
Colonel Lowry took advantage of the
opportunity to Invite President Taft to
come to Atlanta on Nevember 11, 1912,
to attend the celebration of the colonel’s
and Mrs. Lowry’s golden wedding anni
versary. _
a lemon just don’t happen to have, so it
is stated.
One young married man, who has long
been a rickey drinker in the summer,
walked all over town on a lime hunt.
And to express his own words, he came
very near calling up one of the lime
coal and cement firms to get it.
The famine was either due to a short
crop or to a record-breaking consump
tion of lime drinks during the past
week, which was caused by the con
tinued hot weather. Plenty of limes
came in Monday, however, and it Is safe
to say that a certain party will lay over
a supply of limes before he will be
caught llmeless again. t •
AIR-MEN RACE WITH
ANGEL OE DEATH FDR
CDNOUKTDF SKIES
PARIS, June 19.—Fifty aeroplanlsts
took wing early Sunday from the avia
tion field at Vincennes on the first stage

stops at various places going and re
turning. Three of the aviators soon,
after the start were killed and at least
one was gravely hurt

LONDON DECKED IN
ROYAL PURPLE FDR
CORONATION WEEK
I , ,
Monday Marks Opening of
Endless Round of Brilliant
Events That Culminate in
Crowning of the Rulers
(By Associated Press.)
LONDON, June 19.—A1l London Is a-
Tlutter today with brilliant streamers 1
and pennants of royal purple; and from
every flag pole in the great city the
banners of “Merriti England" are snap
ping in the breeze that heralded the ac
tual opening day of coronation week.
The city is overflowing with hundreds
of thousands of people who have coms
to witness the crowning of England's
king and queen, and nothing but the
coming ceremonies Is talked of.
Buckingham palace, where the court
has been established, is a scene of bril
liant activity, and the retinue of nobili
ty that surrounds the king and queen
is kept as busy as a community of bea
vers preparing for the actual ceremo
nies of coronation day. Both the king
and queen are taking things as quietly as
possible, realizing the stupendous strain
to which they will be subjected later
on.
Everything is practically in readiness
today for the coronation, and all that
is necessary wrrl be completed before
the day actually arrives.
A score of King George’s coronation
guests, accompanied by their suites,
reached London this morning and. with
as many more from foreign courts and
states due to arrive this evening, will
complete practically the assemblage of
foreign missions.
JOHN HAYS HAMMOND.
John Hays Hammond, special United
States ambassador, and his suite, will be
Included i» the later arrivals, coming
from Dover on a special train. Through
out the day special after special rolled
into different Lqndon railway terminals, .
bringing in princes and special ambassa
dors and their suites from all points ot
the globe. The streets presented a lively
appearance with a constant coming and
going of the royal carriages with theii
escorts, conveying the guests to Bucking
ham palace and other pajaces and the
private residences given over for the en
tertainment of their envoys.
The night-long work of the army of
decorators served to enliven most of th*
streets in the center of London.
Flags gave a gala appearance, which
the Intermittent rainstorms cduld not
spoil. The decorations and Illuminations
are on < sckle never before attempted tKR
England, and the demand for electri?
lighting is so great that the electrical
companies have served public notice that
their capacity to supply the current ha»
been reached and that they cannot under
take further contracts.
The German crown prince and hi:»
party. Prince Henry, of Prussia, and
Prints Henry, of the Netherlands, wer<«
among this morning's arrivals. Th<l
duke of Connaught and other member!
of the royal family flittered from sta
tion to station to meet each new
comer, undeterred by the showers of
mud that' their swiftly-moving vehicles
tossed up
The public appears smitten with the
coronation • fever. They throng the
streets in such multitudes as to make
progress anywhere in the center of fash
ionable London a matter of difficulty. i
Between the coronation of Edward VII,
"The Peacemaker," and that of his son,
George VII, who, probably will be known
to history as “The Sailor King," is a
wide contrast.
Edward’s coronation was attended with
many misgivings and fears. On account
of the serious operation which the king
had recently undergone, and which ne
cessitated the postponement of the
crowning and the apprehension lest his
majesty should not be able to endure the
difficult ordeal of a state ceremonlsJ
lasting nearly four hours. With the strata
of its attendant functions, the atmos
phere of the first occasion was charged
with extreme nervous tension. Then the
pagentry and feudal rites of the most
ancient and splendid ritual preserved by
any European dynasty—coming down as
it does through the mists of nearly a
thousand years from the time of thfl
first Edward—had the glamor of extrema
novelty in the eyes of the British people.
More than half a century has passed
since the coronation of Queen Victoria.
Very few persons survived who had par
ticipated in that ceremony and who
would appear again in any role at the
crowning of her son.
PERSONS OF THE DRAMA.
The persons of the drama who will
support the new king and queen next
Thursday are largely the same. The
venerable dean of Westminster, whose
weakness lent a touch of pathos to the
last coronation, is gone. No one who
was in Westminster Abbey on that oo
caslon can forget the scene wnen the
aged prelate knelt before his monarch
and was unable to rise until the king
bent down to help him. The Duke of
Devonshire, a typical English nobleman
of the old school. Is succeeded by his
son. Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman is
dead and also the stem old Duke of Cam
bridge, brother of the former king. /
Three chairs stood below the throne
on that day, their occupants the duke
of Connaught, the duke of Cambridge
and the present king, then prince of
Wales. On Thursday there will be two.
occupied as before by the duke of Con
naught and the. young prince of Wales,
who will wear his uniform of a naval
cadet. But many great figures of the
last coronation will be seen playing the
same parts again. Rosebery, Roberts,
Kitchener and Balfour < will be conspic
uous among them. The earl marshal,
duke of Norfolk, has the rare distinc
tion of arranging the ceremonies of two
coronations. One of the most familiar
and popular figures In English life, the
duke Is best known as the head of the
foremost Catholic family of England.
The four Knights of the Garter who •
carried the canopy for the king’s
anointing in 1901. were Cadogan, Rose
bery, Derby and Spencer. The two
first officiate again with Lord Crewe and
the earl of Minto. Four duchesses will
perform the same office for the' queen,
, the duchesses of Hamilton, Montrote,.
Portland and Sutherland. The dufce of j
Marlborough will carry St. Edwarrj>J
crown in the procession as he did bfll
fore.
One picturesque feature of the
narlons of earlier kings has been
doned. The barons of the cinque
established their claim to the
bear a canopy over the king's head,
afterward to divide it among
as a souvenir At the coronation
William IV they performed this taskM®
clumsily, not having had an opportunity
i to rehearse it, that they now have to
be satisfied with seats of honor in Um
