THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 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.” BURROUGHS ADDING MACHINE CO. IN THE BUY A BALE MOVEMENT 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 81 for them to accept cotton from one of their farmer customers on a basis of 10 cents delivered to us at designated warehouse, with the understanding :hat said farmer or customer deliver he cotton to the merchant to apply in account .a Jk on merchants' books It was thri/ the Georgia men hat the Burroughs Company Joined ■he “Buy-a-Bale" movement. 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 rary secretary, W. W.

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. i M « Ar \£? ha V ßt,ve ,nr iuiry will be mado into this phase of the matter. Every attempt is being mado to re capture the two desperadoes. MR. CANNON CLARK LANGLEY PASSED AWAY AT LANGLEY Leading Citizen of That Place Succumbs to Illness of Some Days. Langley, 8.
