THE MORNING CALL.
Vol. X. No. 169.
another large addition.
SIOO,OOO to be Spent in Enlarging
the Griffin Mills
Griffin is to have another SIOO,OOO
cotton factory, at.d the material for
building this large plant is being re
ceived daily.
This factory is being erected as an
addition to the Griffin Manufacturing
Company, a cotton ftiill with a world'
renowned reputation for its superior
quality of cloth, and by the 15th of
April more than a hitndred workmen
will be engaged in its erection.
Mr. W. J. Kincaid, of the Griffin
Mfg. Co. and the Kincaid Mfg. Co.,
was seen by a Call reporter yesterday
afternoon, and said the building ma
terial was being put upon the ground
for this SIOO,OOO addition and it was
the wish of the stockholders to have
the machinery running by the com
ing of another cotton crop.
‘•This,” said Col. Kincaid, “will give
us one of the largest plants in the
state, and with ten years to start on I
could build a city the size of Griffin,
for when our new mill is in operation
we will work one thousand hands
regular.
“It is with pride I state our mills
run on full time every working day in
the year, and often extra time is in
vogue to fill the rush of orders. We
are now more than a hundred thou
sand yards behind orders and it is'im
possible for us to reduce that num
ber.
“We will then have in operation 28,-
000 spindles and 1,000 looms capable
of utilizing more than all the cotton
brought to this market.
“Our factory is yet in its youth but
we are endeavoring to make the very
best and latest grades of cloth, which
is gaining in popularity very rapidly.”
It will be remembered that the Kin
caid Manufacturing Co., is now com
pleting aa addition to their plant at a
cost of SIOO,OOO and will be in work
ing order before another month.
This will rank Griffin among the
first cotton cloth manufacturing cities
of the south. There is no reason why
cotton goods cannot be made as good
and much cheaper here than in the
north,J where expenses of shipping
cotton from the fields are to be con
sidered.
Ths Calj, rejoices in the success of
these enterprises and truly hopes to
see its permanent continuation.
Discovered By a Woman.
Another great discovery has been
made, and that, too, by a lady in this
country. “Disease fastened its clutches
upon her, and for seven years she
withstood its severest tests, but her
vital organs were undermined and
death seemed imminent. For three
months she coughed incessantly, and
could not sleep. She finally discover
ed away to recovery, by purchasing
of us a bottle of Dr. King’s New Dis
covery for Consumption, and was so
much relieved on taking first dose,
that she slept all night; and with two
bottles, has been absolutely cured.
Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz ” Thus
writes W C. Hamnick & Co., Shelby,
N. C. Trial bottles freest Harris &
Son’s and Carlisle & Ward’s Drug

LEFT THE COUNTY
' Jim Hunter Practices Incendiarism
And is Flogged
I Several days ago there appeared in
our local columns an account of the
■ burning of a barn and contents be
longing to Marcellua Woodward, a
negro man living about four miles in
country.
This fire originated from incendia
rism just after dark and Woodward had
his suspicions as to the guilty party.
He began to quietly investigate the
matter and soon had sufficient evi
dence against Jim Hunter, another
negro who lives near his place, and
with whom be bad had some trouble,
to convict him.
But before Weodward could find
time to leave his duties upon the farm
and come to the city to have Hunter
arrested, it leaked out in the neigh
borhood that he (Hunter) was un
questionably the negro who was de
stroying the property of others by fire.
Tuesday night a crowd of unknown
men called at Hunter’s heme, and
having gained from him strong evi
dence, gave him a sound flogging,
which he will never forget, and told
him to leave the county before another
day or he would be dealt with more
severely.
Hunter, it is said, lost no time in
leaving, and the people of tha,t com
munity feel relieved at being rid of
this desperate character, who will
doubtless always carry marks upon
bir back as pay for his misdeeds.

GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 23, 1899.
ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE OF THE
UNITED STATES
I Thomasville Times Enterprise.]
The full ratification of the treaty
with Spain will cause a technical
change in the relations of the United
to the Philppine islands, but will af
ford no reason for any change of the
views of the anti-imperialists in regard
to the future of the islands, nor will ii
in the least affect the clear doty of
thia republic.
Wo are now engaged in warfare
with the inhabitants of those islands.
It is unprofitable to discuss the ques
tion as to which party began hostil
ities. No other result could have been
expected, when the lines of two ops
posing military forces were held to
close and in such tense condition that
[ittle was needed to cause an exp'o*
sion.
The evidence is very clear that
Aguinaldo was brought to the islands
by our own warships; that his aid was
accepted arid desired in our military
operations against the Spaniards ; that
hopes of independence were encour
aged by our consuls and other officers ;
that a parliament of the islands, or
ganized by representatives elected by
186 towns and provinces, chose Agu
inaldo president and framed a consti
tution, which was promulgated, de
fining the powers and duties of the
separate departments of the governs
ment with remarkable clearness and
ability, and that the government so
formed fairly represented the intelli
gence of the people of the islands.
It is also undeniable that on Jan. 5
President McKinley issued a procla
mation through General Otis, declar
ing that on the 10th of the previous
month the Philippine islands had
been ceded to this country by Spain
by the signature of the Treaty of
Paris, and further ordered him to ex
tend the military government of the
United States “to the whole of the
ceded territory,” and to demand the
surrender of Iloilo, which was then
held by the Filipinos in an orderly
manner by capture from the Span
iards.
It cannot, be claimed in law that
this assumption of power was war
ranted in advance of the ratification
of the treaty by both parties, and
there can be no doubt that the arb:«
trary claim greatly aggravated the
people of the islands, whose hope of
independence seemed thus rudely de
stroyed.
No declaratory resolution as to the
future of the islands was assented to
by the administration before the rati
fication of the treaty by the senate,
and none has been made since.
Any right that we assert to owner
ship of the Philippines must rest,
therefore, either upon conquest or
upon purchase from their Spanish
oppressors, or upon both, and in any
case it is, as we believe, inconsistent
with the principles of this republic,
and fraught with danger to its peace
and to the peace of the world.
The first result we already witness,
a war of subjugation, which must, tm
bitter the people we seek to rule, and
which, however successful, must bring
disaster and death to our soldiers, and
unmeasured cost to our people.
Profoundly impress’d with the ee«
riousnees of the situation it is the
purpose of the anti-Imperialiste to
continue the circulation of literatuie
to assist in the formation of leagues
and by public meetings, ami every
proper means known to a free people,
to agitate for the revival in the land
the spirit of Washington and Lincoln,
to protest against a spirit of militarism
and force, to oppose the colonial idea
and a permanently large standing
army, and to assert the vital truths of
the Declaration of I em
bodied in the constitution and indis
solubly connected with the welfare of
this republic.
They urge, then fore, all levers of
freedom, without regard to party as
sociation, to co-operate with them -o
the following ends :

take immediate steps toward* a sue.

Second. That the government of
