THE EVENING GALL. Vol. X No. 216 another cotton mill. griffin fast becoming a man ufacturing CENTER The Spalding Cotton Mills Will be Built as Soon as Charter Is Secur ed—Capital Stock SIOO,OOO- Griffin is to have another large cot ton mill before the end of this year. The application for charter will ap pear ii» the Evening Call tomorrow, and work will begin upon the building as soon as possible. Tho Call has known for several days that the mill was an assured fact, but not until today wire the plans sufficiently matured to warrant its an nr,uncement. The new mill will be known as the Spalding Cotton Mills, and will have a paid up capital stock of SIOO,OOO, with the privilege of increasing it to $200,» 000. It will be built almost exclusively by local capitalists, among the num ber being Douglas Boyd, Seaton I Grantland, W. J. Kincaid, .1. D. Boyd, J. J. Mangham, H. C. Buir, J VV Mangham, G. J. Coppedge, N. B. Drewry, R. W. Lynch, L S. Earley and others. As soon as the charter has been granted the stockholders will meet and elect officers, but, who will be placed at the head of the uew mills could not be learned. Tbe promoters of the enterprise have the option on several bodies of land near the city, but have not fully decided where tbe mill will be locat ed. Messrs. J. J. and J. W. Mangham have been untiring in their efforts to to secure this mill for Griffin, and to them is largely due the credit for its early erection. They, like many nth ers, realize that Griffin to be a city of any importance, must build man ufacturing entrrprises, and they con tripute liberally of their means to secure them. Tbe Call congratulates Griffin up on securing this mill, and hopes its stockholders will find it as profitable as the two mills-now in operation. Americans as Fighters- Our two wars of 1898-99, with Spain and with tbe Filipinos, have proved wonderful educators. We have learn ed more of our own power and 'esour- : ees than we ever knew before, and Europe has learned that we are a pen-; pie to be feared and respected. One | consequence will be that we shall ; hereafter be treated with more defer ence by tbe other Bowers, because those Powers have now witnessed a demonstration of the capacity of the American as a fighting man in foreign lands and on foreign waters, and they now know that be fights anywhere with about as much dash and daring and intrepid courage as he does on hie own soil The great civil war gave the world an illustration of American valor and endurance that will never be forgotten ; but in that conflict the con testants were on home ground, and it was only natural to suppose that Americans would fight more desperate ly at home than abroad. That seems to have been about the general idea entertained in foreign countries In some parts of Europe tht re was a disp.isition to make light of the United States as a military power, because we kept such a very small standing army. It was thought that the fighting spirit would die out; that the nation would become effemi nate ; that volunteer troops could not be depended upon to fight successful battles, if called on short notice to the defense of the national policy, all such ideas have been abundantly disproved. I ne battles of Manila bay and Santia go proved that the American navy is manned by sailors who keep cool and shoot straight; in short, that it is one of the fitest and most efficient organi zations of its kind in tbe world. And in the lar.d battles in Cuba last year, and in the Philippines this year, the soldiers, regular and volunteer, have proved that for coinage, fortitude and accurate marksmanship, they are the peers of any that ever went into the field, and the superiors of many of the crack troops of the European na tions. A number of Englishmen, Ger mans and Spaniards who have recent ly witnessed the lighting about Manila and Calocan are quoted in a letter to the New York Evening Post, as ex pressing ‘ unbounded astonishment, not only at the bravery of the men in battle, but the fortitude and cheerful ness of the wounded ” "It was a rev e.ation to them," continued the cor respondent,'‘these two traits of the American soldier, which won their admiration and made them respect the niiiit< ‘ r . T potentiality of 1U,000,000 such people as these.” We are a peace-loving people but when it becomes necessary to fight, we can • trike quickly and as hard and often as may be required io achieve our desired ends—Savannah News. I . ADMINISTRATION CRITICISED It Has Not Dealt Honestly in Regard to the Volunteers in Philippines- & W a sll iNoTuN, May lt>.—(Special j The administration has not dealt hen estly’with the country in regard to the volunteers in tbe Philippines. It has given out one thing about bring- ■ ing home these men, who have been worked and fought so continuously ■ that many of them are now unfit for > duty, when it knew that another thing > | was to be doue. Il has told the coups try that Gen. Otis had been ordered to I send the volunteers home as fast as , transportation cauld be secured for ’ them, when Otis had really been in structed to keep the vo uutcers as long as he needed them and could make 1 them appear to stay willingly. This 1 has been suspected for some time, but when two transports left Manila for J San Francisco last week, with only sick and wounded men aboard, and I two more with no soldiers aboard, it became a certainty. It is now private- Ily acknowledged by members of the | administration that it had, from the first, been the intention of Otis to keep the volunteers until the Filipinos surrendered,and that the bluft' about: bringing them home as fast as vessels could be made available was thrown out because it was thought that ths surrender wouffi occur before there 111 1 would be any opportunity to send them home. A government of tbe people can never add to its strength | or popularity by deceiving the people. Every such deception is an itnnnon. r o 1 meat of the pratriotism of the peeple. ( Tbe disappointment felt in admin- - istrat ion circles over the failure of the expected surrender of Aguinaldo to materialize, is so acute that it cannot be hidden, and officials who have been so glib for several weeks past, in pre dicting the speedy finish of Aguiualdo, j cannot be coaxed to talk about the probabilities there at all. Admiral Schley has accepted an in ! ( vitation from ex-Senator Manderson, to pay him a visit at bis Nebraska! home, and will leave for the West at j 1 I once. He will probably take advan- i tage of the opportunity, while in that I . section, to visit a number of other t Western points, to which he has been : ; cordially invited. t If the idea of a popular subscription I !Co buy a Washington home for Ad-< ] : miral Dewey is as well received all ! , over the country as it has been ini 1 Washington, enough money is likely - i.o be subscribed to buy him a whole town, instead of a eing.e bouse. Dewey . has notified the navy department that f he will leave Manila in a few days, , aud get to tbe United States in about ; , four months, which indicates his in» ' e tention to make the homeward voyage in a very leisurely manner, as the trip . could easily be made inside of two months. His friends say that the ad- . miral wishes to give himself a chance ( to get good and strong, and the cool weather of fall to arrive, before he c tackles ovations which await him in , • r this country. - .. 1 When Nature Needs assistance it may be best to render 1 it promptly, but one should remember to e use even the most perfect remedies only 8 when needed.

A Rival for Ice Trusts The liquefaction r f a t - t u.r ! the ('ream nf rci - .i ,-ij : ii complished fuel. id ..i ihe liquid are being [ reduced iu th iabtflr atoryof.Mr Tripier, in New York, every day. I pto thi« time, however, the demonstration has been more of a laboratory triumph than anything else. !\o method of producing the liquid at a cost which would make it available for commercial purposes has yet beeb | perfected, though it is promised that#; plant now in process of consirnctiop iu New York will be in operntiojb probably tbe latter part of this month, when, if the aims of the inventor are reached, liquid air will be produced more cheaply than and as easily as ice is made. And it is the purpose of tbe inventor in Question, a young man of the name of Ostrager, to bring liquid air into the market in competition ! with ice, Mr, Tripier, concerning whose iu« j ventionsand wonderful experiments; with liquid air we have printed several! articles, uses an apparatus in v. bicb an i initial pressure of 2,000 pounds to the ! square inch is necessary to the lique faction of the air. Ostrager, who is said to ba an inventor of ability, has 1 invented an apparatus of different pat tern which, it is claimed, will perform ' I■• - lhe same functions with an initial pressure of GGO pounds to the square inch. It will readily appear from this statement that the latter apparatus can be operated much more cheaply than the former. Mr. Ostrager has been able to convince several capital ists of the correctness of bis experi ments and deductions, and they have furnished him with money to build a $30,000 plant, which will be finished during the latter part of this month, when a number of scientific experts will inspect and study it. Il is the purpose of Mr. Ootrager and his friends, if the apparatus per forms what is expected of it, to go at once into the market with liquid air as a refrigerating agent. Its tempera ture, it will be recalled, is 312 degrees below zero. It is to be placed in jars covered partially with a line film frmn , which a tube will extend, permitting I a slow and safe evaporation of the liquid air. 'l’he jars are to be delivered I to hotels, residences and elsewhere ‘ that a cooling agent is desired, and j they may be placed inside refrigerators . or ice boxes, just as a lump of ice is. j The cost, it is believed, w ill be lees I than the cost of a quantity of ice! necessary to perform similar service.! The liquid air, meantime, would be not only cooling but a purifyingagent in the refrigerator. All impurities are removed from the air in the process of liquefaction, hence the pure oxygen, hydrogen and ozore that would be lib erated in the refrigerator in the pro cess of evaporation would absorb the impurities in lhe chamber. There is, to be sure, an element of doubt about the perfect success of Ostrager's apparatus, and the ice trusts may not be threatened with serious competition on the part of liquid air makers this year but it seems altos gether probable that the time is not far distant when the newly discovered liquid will be made available for gen eral use as a cooling agent, and prob ably alsoasa motor power—Savannah News Bucklen’s Arnica Salve THE BEST SALVE in the world for Cuts, Bruises, Sores, Ulcers, Salt Rheum Fever Sores, Tetter, Chapped Hands, Chilblains, Corns, and all Skin Eruptions, and positively cures Piles, or no pay re quired.

Former Governor Roswell P Fluwer, who has come to bis untimely enc, had some particular ami very di finite ideas as to trusts and trade combina tion)!, He was a very rich man and was much engaged in the administra tion of properties of an industrial char acter. In the course of an interview held with him, a short time before his death, Mr. Flower said he believed that "so far as they are operated on the principle of reducing il.c pi ice of product to lhe consumer, so far as they i are to cheapen the cost of production, i They are a growth of the times They i are here to slay. Combinations of capital that are made for the purpose i of reducing the cost of production and reducing lhe price of the finished pro duct to the consumer are all right.’’ But this does not present the case fully. The trouble is that, trusts are not organized for the mere purpose of reducing the price. As surely as fate, the moment the trust shall find itself in a position absolutely to control prices there will be an advance in prices. This is inevitable, for it is in accordance with human nature. Many persons believe that there is not enough cohesiveness among the projectors of trusts to make them en dure permanently. This may be true, , But how much better it would be for | manufacturing to ba earned on in the old way without the contest imminence of a great financial crash'.' It cannot 1 bo wise to smother competion no mat j ter in what way it may be attempted. , The liberty of the people is safe only las prices shall b ■ left to depend upon ! the demands of the market.
