The directors wore impressed with j, one portion ot tho president's report iand feels that harm is being done in certain directions bocauae: of erron eous Impressions being created on Hie minds of the people of the state ?us io -the ownership of tho mills. That part of the report wMch ira ?pressed tho directory and which they wah to i m prc s a on tho people gen erally is as follows: "There seems to bo a disposition in certain quartors to create the im pression that tho mills are hot' tho I property<of citizens of this abite, but are owned by capitalists away from tins .state. While if lt were true ahat capitalists - from away . Bh?uld see well-to invest their money within the conflues, ot the state wo should not c. om-. I dor that fact as being oth er than good for tho BtatO. However except in Isolated cases, whoro Emilia i havo been seriously embarrassed by debt, .the stock is owned largely by Mouth Carolinians, and in . the case ot the Orr Cotton Mills this is parti-, euler ly true.
