Exhibit Augusta Made Cloth at the Georgia-Carolina Fair
PRES'T RAWORTH, SIBLEY IIIIILLJO
SHOW PEOPLE THIS SECTION WHAT
AOCOSTA COTTON MILL GAN MAKE
Mills Make All Kinds of Cloth
Except Those of Fine Tex
ture-Goods Shipped to New
York and Brought Back Here
and Sold
SEE TO IT THAT GOODS
YOU BUY ARE MADE IN
AN AUGUSTA MILL
Farmers Can Increase Con
sumption By Baling Cotton in
Cotton Bagging and Buying
Fertilizer in Cotton Sacks
When an Augusta woman goes into
an Augusta dry goods store and asks
for mottled crash, ratine, duvetyne,
drill, duck or sheeting she never as
sociates any of these articles with an
Augusta cotton mill, and yet she knows
that they are made out of cotton. If
she thinks about it at all it is prob
ably a fleeting thought with a vision
of a big steamer or train of freight
cars moving out of New York with
cotton goods consigned to Augusta
dry goods firms. To bring cotton
goods to Augusta, or to any part of
the South, where there are mills to
make cloth, except, indeed, the goods
of the finer- texture, should be like
carrying coals to Newcastle and, yet
goods are sold in the North by Au
gusta mills' by the millions of yards,
and great quantities of these same
goods are bought by Augusta dry
goods merchants on the table of New
York wholesalers and shipped right
back here.
The average Augustan and the
average person throughout this sec
tion has only the faintest sort of an
idea of what Augusta mills can make.
In a vague sort of way they know
that they make cloth, but as to what
kind of cloth, etc., they know noth
ing.
Exhibit at Fair.
In furtherance of the suggestion
that the people of this section of
Georgia and South Carolina be shown
just what nn Augusta mill can make,
President T. S. Raworth of the Sibley
Manufacturing Company, plans to
have an exhibit at the coming Geor
gia-Carolina Fair of Sibley made
goods. In all probability other cot
ton mill men, in this vicinity will fol
low Mr. Raworth’s example and as
sist in this campaign of education to
show our home people what our own
mills can make.
A Herald reporter visited the Sibley
Mill Thursday and was shown aqttnn
tity of samples by Mr. Haworth which,
when placed on exhibition at the fair,
will be a revelation to the people of
this city and section.
All of the kinds of cloth mentioned
above and many others are made at
the Sibley every day and Augustans
are now wearing clothing made from
cloth manufactured in Augusta, which
has gone to the North and sent right
back here to be sold. This suggests
the idea for people of this commun
ity, when buying cotton goods that
can be made in Augusta, to stipulate
that it come from an Augusta mill.
This will do much to stimulate the
trade of the mills with local houses.
Almost Every Kind of Cloth Made
Here.
Cloth for canvas shoes, cloth for
awnings, for furniture coverings, for
I’alm Beach suits, for ladies’ skirts,
whipcord for men's suits, and, in fact,
almost every kind of cloth one needs
is made in Augusta. Mr. Kawortli
has a suit of clothing made from
whipcord manufactured at the Sibley
and he plans to put it on exhibition
at the fair.
There are over 900 styles of dobby,
a fancy goods for making ladies'
skirts, and which can almost he used
as draperies, etc., made at the Sibley.
“I expect to have a bale of cotton
at the fair,” said Mr. Haworth, "cov
ered with cotton bagging. During the
war with the jute bagging trust, as it
was called, in 18*9, we made over
1,000,000 yards of cotton bagging,
I-ater the price of coton went up and
jute went down and we could not
make it as cheap. Now, however,
with little importation of Jute the
Southern mills should be able to make
bagging in the South for every bale
of cotton that is ginned in the South
and it would take an enormous quan
tity of cotton goods to do it. Then,
too, we can make cotton sacks in Au
gusta and if every farmer would stip
ulate that his fertilizer must be ship
ped to him in cotton sacks another
enormous quantity of cotton goods
would be taken off the market. The
fertilizer people would be only too
willing to ship fertilizer in cototn bags
if ordered to do so.
“There are a great number of ar
ticles made now In which cotton plays
a large part and of which our people
know nothing and there are various
ways of using the staple, which will
be found by reason of the war. For
Intsance, the price of leather Is so
high that there will be an Increasing
quantity of cloth shoea worn.”

The Burrough Addin* Machine Co.
■want to do their part with regard to
the cotton situation In the South and
will accept a hale of cotton an part
payment on addin* machines. It is
our idea to take distressed cotton as
much aa possible, and when we sell
i machines to merchant* who have no
§ cotton, we are willing In those cases

their farmer customers on a basis of
10 cents delivered to us at designated

ROTARY CLUB MET
IN AUSPICIOUS
BEGINNING
Organization Meeting Held
Wednesday Afternoon Was
Enthusiastically Attended.
Finest Start He Had Ever
Seen, Said Mr. John S. Banks
Thirty-six of the thirty-nine char
ter members elected to organize a
Rotary Club of Augusta met Wednes
day afternoon at 2:30 o'clock in the
Albion Hotel and held their first of
ficial meeting for the purpose of or
ganizing. Mr. John S. Banks, presi
dent of the Rotary Club of Savannah,
and Dr. R. V. Harris, secretary of the
same, came up to August to be pres
ent at this meeting and help the Au
gustans get together along the proper
lines.
Mr. Banks spoke to the assembly
on the subject of Rotary, what it
means and what it does. He explain
ed every detail of the organization,
proceedure, aims and objects of the
great Rotary movement which is
sweeping the country. He congratu
lated Augusta on the fine showing put
up at the-initial meeting and said that
it was the most enthusiastic and
promising he had ever seen some to
gether to promote a Rotary Club in
any city. Mr. Banks talked for more
than an hour, at the end of which
every man present had a clear and
definite impression of a new vital
force which has entered into him.
The key word and fundamental
principle of Rotary is Service. Its
motto it: “He profits most who serves
best.” It is an organization of busi
ness men, one and only one from each
line of business, selected for their ca
pacity to give service. Each is sup
posed to be the "livest” man in his
line, in other words the one who will
take the most interest in meeting the
demands made upon him. Rotarians
have implicit faith in each other. They
believe that they can depend more
on a brother Rotarian than they can
on another man, for otherwise he
would not be a Rotarian. Rotarians
do not, however, in any way obligate
themselves to patronize other Rota
rians.
Dr. Harris, of Savannah, spoke
when Mr. Banks had finished and
■told the members assembled some
thing of the inside workings and pro
cedure at meetings, making many
useful suggestions.
At the conclusion of a most excel
lent luncheon served by the Albion
Hotel, Mr. Howard Stafford offered a
resolution that the Rotary Club of
Augusta be permanently organized at
the next meeting, at which time a
committee should submit a list of the
nominations for the various offices.
An amendment made by Mr. Coles
Phinizy, at the suggestion of Mr.
Banks, was accepted, however, fixing
the permanent organization for the
present meeting, and the resolution
was adopted. A committee of five
was immediately appointed by tem
porary chairman, J. M. Hull, .ir.,
which retired to prepare a list of the
nominations.
While they were out of tl.e room
Mr. J. Rice Smith was called upon for
a speech, with the most adequate re
sults. Mr. Smith was at the very
top of his form, iwid made perhaps the
most brilliant and inspiring impromp
tu speech any man present had ever
heard. He began in a humorous vein,
and worked up to a grea' solemn pan
egyric on Augusta, the city of hiß
adoption, with an eloquence that was
truly magnificent. His hearers alter
nated roars of laughter with thun
derous rounds of applause. (Some
were so doubled up With laughter that
they could not appreciate the serious
part when Mr. Smith same to It).
Captain Rice was called upon to
speak next, but was Interrupted by
the return of the committee, who sub
mitted the following names as candi
dates for office. Their nominees were
all elected unanimously.
Officers: President, J. M. Hull, Jr.;
vice-president, J. Rice Smith; tempo

tary, ex-officio; F. H. Barrett, P. H.
Rice, H. H. Stafford, R. H. Brown,

10 CONVICTS
SHOOT GUARD
ANO ESCAPE
Desperate Negroes, Mys
teriously Armed With Re
volvers, Escaped From Coun
ty Stockade at 4 A. M. After
Shooting Night Watchman
Joe Colds.
Tom Harris and Louis Wiggins,
both colored, escaped from the county
stockade Thursday morning at 4
o’clock, after shooting and wounding
Night Watchman Joe Golds.
Both negroes were armed with .38
calibre pistols, which they had ac
quired In some Inconceivable way,
and this morning when Mr. Colds,
a while man about 60 years of ago,
went to open the door of the sleep
ing quarters to let out the cooks, Har
ris and AVigglns rolled out of bed and
begin firing at him before they were
out of their cots.
One ball hit Mr. Colds In the right
leg, entering the flesh above the knee,
and brought him to the floor.
The two negroes then made a ruslv
for tho door and escaped. Harris, siiy
the eye-witnesses, held Wiggins iii
front of him as a shield, and the lat
ter, it is thought, did all the shooting.
Six shots were fired altogether. After
they had passed the door they shot
at the old negro floor-walker who was
standing outside, hitting and breaking
a lantern which he carried.
The guards composing the sleeping
detail, who were, in their beds up
stairs, were awakened by the firing
and name down stairs on tho run, but
when they arrived the escaped negroes
had vanished. The blood bounds
were Immediately brought out anil put
on the trail, but they could do noth
ing.
The two negroes are still at large
probably In the vicinity of the city
biding and waiting for a chance to
got away.
Toni Harris was under a four-year
sentence for shooting « furniture col
lector named Eubanks lust spring, and
has behind him one of the worst
criminal records of any negro on Iho
clialngang. He escaped from Ihe
chalngang In Columbia, H. C„ In 1910
after shooting one of the guards. He
wtis at that time doing a five-year
sentence for house-breaking. He 'has
been carefully watched in the Rich
mond County stockade and kept In an
18-Inch hobble chain, which he had on
at tha time of his escape.
WlKKlns was doing five years time
under conviction for burglary.
How tho two acquired tho pistols
is the great mystery of the case.

Every attempt is being mado to re
capture the two desperadoes.
