THE .NEW STOCK COMPANY. r>i5f- 1h,J, C> P Breton’s T, erribI ° mind smls bore of suspicion the bitterest sown in through the dreary winter fruits of his will, months. No efforts nor course of reasoning could corn- tort him. For a moment he might find lief, but his torment re- would only return atresh. Humanity are slow to believe good of fellow creature., but nothing seemed too bad to bo true. He thought it might have calmed him to have been assured even of the worst. He believed that he might despise the woman ho had elevated to the highest pinnacle of his ideal temple of womanhood, if she had made so little of the most sacred gift of God. But it would have been a vio¬ lence to his feelings to inquire of those who must know. Her father must know, but bis smiling ' e face will reveal nothing, and hi’s 9 reserve was peopled with horrors for Philip. His wife Jane must know, too, but he could not bear to think of the malicious pleasure she would take in detailing the shameful story to him. She would sate her hate in his misery. But what if it were not a shameful story! Still ho could not form his lips to ask. The humiliation of such a ques¬ tion from him, a discarded lover, about her at wnose feet he had been proud to sit shocked him iuto silence. He even dreaded lest they might speak to him of her, although it had been months since he had heard Ber¬ tha’s name once breathed. (>ne evening at tho very close of the winter Philip Breton called a meeting of his help' and the old market hall was packed from door to platform. Reporters were planted by their tables, to catch every word of the mysterious proceedings. Representatives from all the factories in the country elbowed tho crowd for their three feet of standing room, eager to learn some new device for making money out of their help as good as tho other. But the great audience was strangely silent, ft knew not what to ex¬ pect. Perhaps the economical mill owner was going to announce a new reduction in their wages; everybody said he was reducing everywhere. The feeling in their hearts was more of fear than hope, and it was a look of piteous terror, almost, that they cast at the slight form in black, that came forward on the platform. They reminded Philip of a Reck of frightened sheep that had never had a shepherd. Then he thought of a great army massed before the smoking cannon mouth, an army that had never had a gen¬ eral. He saw they feared him. ‘•I have been for a longtime trying to think of some way to make your lives more fair for you, and yet be fair to myself and my class. I have been cutting on expenses to make tho whole business machinery as economical as I knew. Now, at last I am ready to take you into my confidence and make you a proposal." There was a stir in the great audience, as if every man changed his position at the same moment, so as to be sure not to lose one precious word of the new gospel. “I cannot feel that I ought to give you anything. And I cannot see that it would be reasonable to pay more wages than others pay; that is, than you have now.” A hush had fallen upon tho people like death. There was no hope for them, then. Still the speaker went on. “But if your labor is profitable tp me, so that I can pay you your price, and pay my other expenses, and pay me for the time I give to the business what such service as I do is paid elsewhere, and (hen have something besides’’- The reporters dropped their pens in aston- ment; was the man mod.' “I am disposed to think that you have earned a share in it.” He paused to eatci his breath, and one could have heard a pin fall in that crowded room. “My capital should be allowed for, too. In a vronl, I pro¬ pose to divide the profits of iny lin'd, after all expenses are paid, into two cqi.* 1 j arts hereafter, one for labor, yours and in Ti, and one for the interest on my money. Tbc part which belongs to labor will bo distributed according to the worth of each one's year's work. The one that earns tho largest year's pay will have the largest per cent, of that divkkud Wo shall ali be stockholders together, each with a share large or small ac¬ cording U. tho value of his work.” Tho bn.filing trembled with the roar of ap¬ plause that went up, and it was several mo¬ ments before Philip could make himself heard again. He had thought there was nothing left in his life, with love gone out of it, but as he stood that moment with (lieglad shouts of the poor ringing in his ears, and felt he had led them out of bondage, his heart thrilled with a proud joy that was almost eetasy. His wealth had brought him a hap¬ piness that made even a life like his worth living, had conferred on him a glorious sense of the dignity of manhood which lifted him as on wings. They must listen while he explained the terms of his plan more fully. He motioned to a dozen boys and took a printed sheet of paper from the pile of similar sheets which ho ordered distributed among the workmen. He then read aloud the following from tho paper in his hand: The first divided will be distributed Aug. 1 for the year ending July 1. The surplus is $200,000; $100,000 is set apart as the allow¬ ance for capital invested, which leaves $100,- 000, to be distributed to the labor in propor¬ tion to the wages or salary earned by each. The whole amount of wages and salaries earned in the mills was about $360,000. There¬ fore the rate per cent, of di vidend is about 27 7-10 to be calculated on the wages or salary of each man, woman and child as shown by the paymaster's book for the past year. For example, the man whom the pay roll shows to have earned $300 for his year's work, will receive 27 7-10 per cent, on $300 in ad¬ dition. or about $80.10 as his dividend. The paymaster, who received a salary cf $2,000, will receive about $-544, and as manager worth a salary of $5,000, I shall receive more than twice the dividend of the paymaster. Certain restrictions will be imposed. First, only one-half of the an¬ nual dividend will fie in cash, for it would hurt tiie interests of the mill to withdraw so much from the busi¬ ness. The other half will 1* in stock, which will draw dividends as tho rest of the capital. Second, stock cannot be transferred except to operatives, but will !*> redeemed at the counting room, after notice, when holders leave the mills, as stock will yield dividends only while holders work in the mills. Holders of stock may hold meetings and choose a committee tociannne the l*x>ks of the company,lief ore the annual distribution of dividends. When Philip Breton sat down a noisy hum of voices followed as tho people read and com meuren upon too prospectus, * no ngure* looked anything but doll to theta. The bright possibilitk* that came up before their imag¬ inations as they road were such as no gentle cadence of poetry could have given them. Apparently they would never have tired of tvadiug the wonderful words of hope and good cheer over and over, except that the outer door swung open and a tail man’s form entered. Philip Breton from the platform saw it and the pride sickened on his heart. Tho crowd alxmt the d<x>r jiassed the whisper around, and it was hardly one short minute yvheu the building shook again with cheers as tliey shouted the name of Curran. Yes.it was he yvho pushed his way well into the room, and then stopped anil took one of the printed sheets, as if he were un¬ conscious of their cheering, and read till his face, that had looked so stern and terrible, softened like a child. Then he mounted a settee for his platform and uncovered his bead with a new grace that became him as well as his strength. The old bitterness had, gone from his lips; it had given place to a ‘ouehing sadness that soliercd every face that vas turned toward him. “He means to deal well by you; he wants ia l-ake you shareholders in your work.” Philip had risen excitedly to his feet. The sight of tho man who had been with Bertha, w ho came perhaps but this instant frpni the vomon he had wronged so terribly, was at first almost maddening to him. Ah, how grand and beautiful he was, with his deep mighty chest and shoulders, and bis limbs like pillars of some temple. There were no laws for such men as he; the holiest and purest of women love to make themselves base and common things to win smiles from his proud eyes, and men forget their venge¬ ance, and only rememlier how small and mean they seem before him. But who could look at his melancholy face and tho calm dignity that rested upon him always, and be¬ lieve he could be vile? Yet perhaps nothing was vile or low to him, and even sin was glorified in his eyes when it suited his caprice to sin. Philip had come to the very edge of tho platform and beckoned a friend to him. “Do you see the man talking—the man with tho auburn hair curling about his neck? no, don't look yet;” his voice was husky with excitement. “Get behind him while he is talking and stop him before ho goes out. 1 must see him and speak with him; I would rather $10,000 than lose him. Quick, now.” As Philip sat down again and watched his friend trying to make his way through the close packed crowd he heard Curran’s voice again. What was there clianged in it? It had lost its old ring, there was a queer drag in it sometimes, and when he used to raise his voice till every nerve tingled for sym¬ pathy, he seemed now to let it fall, and his long, sonorous sentences died down at the end like a muffled bell. “If others were like him,” he was saying, “tho reform I would die for would come soon, would tie upon us.” How slow his friend moved. Philip actu¬ ally hated the people who were too stupid to get out of his messenger’s way. Had Curran finished, was this all that was left of his eloquence? Yes, ho was stepping down and moving toward the door. Philip's friend was almost there, tho man must not escape thus, and plunge again with the wo¬ man whose life he had blasted into the ob¬ scurity he seemed to love. Philip leaped to his feet and almost shouted to the people. All turned their faces expectantly toward him, Curran with the rest his pale worn face. Philip's friend was come almost to him now. If Curran could only be detained for one moment more. “It will of coarse be for the interest of all of you,” he knew he was talking weakly, but it was no matter, “to earn the most wages you can, to lose tho fewest days, to turn off the most piece work.” Of course, he spoke too stupidly; Curran turned on his heel and moved toward the door. Almost instantly then Philip Breton gave a sudden short how to the audience and disappeared back of the platform. He bounded down the narrow stairs, four at a time, and rushed around to the front of the building like one mad, to stare for a moment in the faces of the escap¬ ing crowd. Then, wilder than ever at the thought that Curran might have gone out among the first, he ran back and forth after one group and another, but all in vain. Then he forced himself to stop and think, and forthwith made inquiries for Curran’s boarding place. He reached the place at last and ran breath¬ lessly up the stairs. In another moment he would know the truth if it killed him to bear it. He must remove the poisonous shadow of suspicion that was polluting all the holiest precincts of his nature. Certainty was bet¬ ter far, for the nerves can brace themselves against the clearly defined features of ever so hideous a monster; far better certainly than this crawling slimy terror that made him •ashamed of a manhood that could cherish it. He dared ask Curran for the truth, he did not shrink from it. If the man were inno¬ cent he might strike him down for the insult to the purity of his wife. Philip thought such atonement would seem just and proper. But if he were guilty, ah, if Bertha was guilty through him what death was terrible enough for his penalty! A portly woman, with the unmistakable expression of the expectant boarding mistress on her face and in her attitude, met the pais faced young man at the top of the stain HhS did not recognize the proprietor of the Bre¬ ton mills, in his slight form. She would have looked for a man of lofty stature and com manding mien, and not a mere lad whom nobody would glance twice at on the street. “Where is Curran? I—I want him.” “IVhy, he’s just gone; he drove off to Lew¬ iston.” “To Lewiston? Are you sure?” Why, this must bo some important personage after aU, he was so peremptory. Poor people can bully, but there is a shamefacedi iur an over af¬ fectation of authority that betrays them; their seif consciousness lets the whole secret out. “Either Lewiston or Raleigh; I can't tell, really, sir. Shall I get you a carriage, Mr.— Mr.T “Two horses and a buggy; a driver, too. Tell them it is for Mr. Breton; anil." he shouted after the woman, “if they give me a poor horse he will bo dead before they ever see him again.” It seemed an hour before the horses drew up before the boarding house door, and an¬ other hour before they hail left the village behind. Then the little patience Philip had forsook him. He caught the reins from ibe astonished driver, and at the threatening snap of the whip the horses took their fasb-st gait. It was a little past 9 o'clock the next morn¬ ing that Philip Breton, pale from a sleepless night, knocked at a low studded door in an ill ventilated tenement house, where they told him Curran lived. W'ithin was Bertha, the high bred woman, wonted to the costliest luxuries of wealth. And she was willing, then, to live in such squalor as this to lie with the man she loved. Could change have been cruel enough to have touched her? Per¬ haps an infant hung hungrily on her liosom, and Curran, fallen back into his vulgar tradi¬ tions, lounged in red flannel shirt sleeves in her presence. Could he bear the sight? But she might be alone; his heart beat faster with terror and hope. She would lift her sweet eyes pleasantly to him—so easy it is for wo¬ men to forget the agony they have caused. She would hold out her shapely hand to him. but it would oe sctuiieu a«wa worn uxmi ciara- «hipw. Should be faii at her feet? Would he be able to remember she was another's—dead to him? He knocked again, possibly no one was at home. “Come in.* It was a man's voice. As Philip opened the door he saw the man he sought by the window, eagerly looking up and down the street, as if waiting for some sign. There was ryo guilty fear or shame iu the calm face that was turner! t > isitor. “Breton.” He gave him fi. . .id with hearty good will. “Soro- tv i could not speak last night, but you have begun a noble work. Why, 1 I tail rather feel the proud sat¬ isfaction you must have, I would rather be in your place than the greatest mail in the whole world." Philip was afraid to look about .m. lVr- hapg Bertha had no wish to spea' to him, or else she was not here; there was no atmos¬ phere of a woman's Jove and care in the place, somehow. But Curran went on in his quick, eager way, “The rich men have the most glorions privilege ever men had. Each man of wealth can let the fountains of light and joy into the lives of a village ill some w-ay which shall make his name blessed for¬ ever. Instead of that, whole generations of us have to break ourselves in pieces in the effort to wear away their r<x'k. We fail, as the w retched 2,000 creatures who strike here today will fail, to gain one privilege more for ourselves, yet our children may profit from our sacrifices, perhaps, or their children. Anything is better than spiritless, eternal submission.” Philip released his hand from llie man's clasp and turned to look about him. No wo- nian’s shawl hung on the rack. Nohaby's shoes or toys were iu sight. A man's rude hands bail set the chairs in an awkward row. A man's hands made the comfortless looking lied that stood in one corner. There was no soft scent of jierfume, such as Bertha would have left behind her if she had but lately gone. Why, Bertha could never have breathed for a moment there. Dive can do much, but it cannot make a woman over. “Where is your wife?” Philip asked in a low, breathless voice. “Bertha.” sas m “ Where is your u i fe t" The eager look faded from Curran * face, and his hluo eyes grew troubled. For instant he did not answer, but stood folded arms gazing out into the street. “What is a wife?” he said at last. woman who loves a man and lives in his love, who pines in his absence and listens to coming of his foot steps, as the music in the world to her; to whom all gifts of life would lie nothing without to whom poverty and disgrace would their liatefulness if ho shared them. A is a sweetheart, a hundred times tenderer happier.” His voice grew “No, bitter and for a moment as ho added, I have wife, Bertha has left me.” He heard a shout, and a score of forms rushed by his window. He from tho window in a sudden passion of citement. “The strike has begun. What pity do rich deserve? Even their women are only to break honest men’s hearts. They beautiful as the angels of heaven and and pitiless as the angels of hell.” “But wait,” cried Philip, catching him the arm. Curran had not yet spoken longed for words to protect Bertha's from the insult of another suspicious thought. But a shout rolled up from the street, another and another in quick succession. Curran shook him off and, catching his from the table, sprang down the stairs. [to rc.N”. r?:rEn.l Application for Charter. KINCAID MANUFACTURING CO. GEORGIA, i i SrALDIKO Coi'NTY. To the Hon.
