has been received from Viceroy Alex

of the mines had risen to the surface,
She Yenisei approached for the pur

FOR NEW DEPARTMENT.
Legislature Passes a Bill Creating De
partment of Immigration.
Columbia. S. C., Feb. 13.—The legis
lature of South Carolina has passed
a bill establishing a state department
of commerce and immigration.
The bill is elastic in character and
enables the department to look not
alone to securing settlers of desirable
character, but to inducing ail kinds of
investments In the state.
The move is due to the peculiar con
ations prevailing in the south result
ing from the cotton growing and man
ufacturing situation, the demand for
farm labor, the probability of the open
ing of the Panama canal and the
development of the West Indian trade.
Once the department is established,
Other southern states will doubtless
move on similar lines. ,

GRIFFIN MAN'S GRANDFATHER
INTERESTED IN FIRST COTTON MILL
Built in the South, Which Was Near Washington,
Georgia, Nearly a Hundred Years Ago.
Not only was Griffin the first r
plucs in the State to build a success
ful cotton mill run by steam power,
but a Griffin man's grandfather was
among the incorporators of what
was actually the first cotton mill
built in the South—the Anthony
mentioned below occupying that
relation to Dr. E. R>. Anthon-,
f ■ It was Clarence B. Bryant, of
Charlotte, secretary of the South
ern Cotton Assooialioi,
who conceived the idea of having a
gavel made from the wood of
the oldest cotton null in the
South and presenting it to the as
sociation. During the lust six
months be has beta corresponding
with people almost all over the
State to locate the place, date of
erection, and name of the first cot
ton mtL in the South After true
ing the early mills, several of
which were built fiom 1815 to 1825,
he heard of an early mill pr jeoted
by Mr. Ramage on James Island of
Charleston, S. J., in 1787, but after
endeavoring to gat an authentic
history of it he found nothing could
ba found and probably the pr< j-ot
was never realized.
The first mid built was located on
Upton creek, nice miles southwest
t Washington, Wilkes county, Ga.
The building was of st >ue, appar
ently something like cobble stone
It was sixty feet long, forty feet
wide and nad two stories and abase-'
merit and attic The material was
brown stone, with grey rook lintels

MASS MEETING.
Rw. Grant Takes Leading Parr, But Wil<
Mains and FI vans Are the Delegates.

a few white men attended the Re
publican mass meeting at the court
house Saturday. E W. Cobb, the
well known African from Africa
district, was made chairman, while
Piofessor Murphey occupied the
chair of colored recorder of pro-,
caedings
Rev. J H. Grant was the whole
thing when it came to making
speeches and offering resolutions,
and aroused his adherents to a high
pi'ch of enthusiasm; but when it

few drinks of corn liquor to defeat
him by tour votes.

in to the News and Sun :

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh of the
Stomach.
For many years It has been supposed that
Catarrh of the Stcmaeh caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, hut the truth is exactly th®
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re
peated attacks of indigestion inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus
ing the glands to secrete mucin instead of
the juices of natural digestion.. Thia la
■ called Catarrh of the Stomach.
Kodal Dyspapsia Sure
relieves all Inflammation of the mucous
membranes lining the stomach, protects th®
nerves, and cures bad breath, sour risings, a
sense of fullness after eating, indigestion,
