V ' The Press and Banner BY HUGH WILSON. ABBEVILLE, S. C. *^-Pabllshed every Wednesday at S2 year in advance. Wednesday, June 28.1899. Still Mantling:. No aotlve movement has been had, loofein to tbe organization of any new enterprise a Abbeville. We are standing still. Whet mer th? dlllrll. mnTM HB. ffe tUBY iDSUgllrat an Industrial enterprise, tbat will prove c great benefit to tbe town, and be a safe an profitable Investment for tbose wbo put the! money into it. The Abbeville Cotton Mill was organize under ibe most unfavorable circumstance! and it is now an assured success. Already 1 , bas given employment to many people, an* tbe dividends are in sight for tbe stockhoic ers. There are several good building sites abou tbe town, and water may be bad in abund a nee. We have clay, water, elbow-grease, and pin timber in great quantities to make all th brick that is necessary for building purpose! Tbe only thing lacking to make the brick is waosIw /wah ?A Oflt tha hri/>fr mlllfl il JUUC toauj voau vv ww ??w ?? ? ?? -motion. The first year of the Abbeville Cotlon Mil was spent In organizing, obtaining subscrlf tloD6, and making brick. About 850,000 1: subscriptions was raised. About $10,000 wa thus put in circulation. Lot owners, labor era, wood-sellers, contractors, and otber bandied that money. During tbe second year, tbe subscription were lnoreased to8100,000, and ol this amounl some $50,000 was paid to contractors, and tbe In turn distributed It. Tbe third year about $10,000 was paid to mil bands, and tbey spent some of it with ou business firms. Tbe fourth year tbe mill Is being doublet In size, and increased In running hours. B< fore tbe year Is out tbe mill will bave paid t people hereabout for labor and material, am for operating tbe machinery, in tbe aggrc gate, a sum equal to say, 8100,000. Tnese ngures note ice gruwiu uuu proxies of the Abbeville Cotton Mill in four years. Tbe work la not yet finished. Next yea tbe mill will be enlarged again, and tbe opei atlng force will be Increased. Tbe Invest ment will tben reacb half a million, and lb * yearly output of money for labor and woo will exceed a hundred thousand dollars. A tbousand people, Including lamllies, wll then be furnished tbe means of a comfortabl living, and tbe men wbo put their mone; into tbe enterprise will receive a fair returi for their money. Every mill In tbeStateseemstobedoublln In size, and many new mills are being bulli Will Abbeville stand still, while others ar going forward ? There Is no ubc in waiting. Tbe town wil standstill until somebody puts tbe ball li motion. If tbe people so will It, they can mor readily build a new mill than tbey built tb one which we now have. ir tbe people prefer any other enterprls tbey can raise tbe money. Unity of action, and harmony of feeling will accomplish desired results. If ^tbose of our fellow-cltlzens who sloo< aloof from the organization ot the Abbeviu Cotton Mill, or who invested in it a mer trifle, will unite they can baild a mill, am tbey will And stockholders of the exlstin mill ready and willing to help in any nev enterprise. This newspaper baa no specific informatloi about cotton seed oil mills, or knitting mills I or cordage mills, or carpet mills. Wltbou information on tbese points,and wltb only i limited knowledge of cotton mills, we wouli favor & ootton mill. A cotton mill can b secured for about the cost of any of the otbe enterprises. A cotton mill generally grows to great pre portions, wben compared to otber Industries and its benefits are participated in by th greatest numbers. To show that South Carolina is moving while Abbeville Is standing, we oopy notes o new Industries in this State, wblcb appearec last week In the Manufacturers Record. Many of the newspapers now seem to b more or less exercised about the orpanzatloi of trusts, and tbelr voice, as far as w< have noticed. Is unanimously against them Tbelr opposition Is so pronounoed tbat It ba been suggested tbat the Democratic part: make It tbelr battle cry during the nex Presidential campaign. The greatest evils t< the people are feared because of the tendeno: of capitalists to unite In controlling dllferen lines of industries. Ibis newspaper knows very little of tbi practical workings of the trusts-which affec the publlo Interest. But some of the arguments or reasons which have been urged against tbem, wll have very little weight with the great mass o the people. It Is claimed tbat 850,000 men an ' employed as salesmen or drummers, and tba already one-fourtb of their number have los their Jobs because of the formation of trusts It Is further urged that the hotels will los OTAOt 1 XT Kw -* *1 * * ..?.v vuu uiuiiuuuuu 01 meir ousinesc To urge such objections to trusts, IB to brlni forward tbe old prejudice wblch existed year ago in other lines of business. For Instance wben this editor was a boy, or a muol younger man tban be is today, printers madi an outcry against tbe introduction of tb< cylinder presses, wblcb were to take tbe plac of tbe band presses, and thus deprive man; pressmen of tbelr Job. Later, it was said tbat tbe sewlDg macbln would destroy tbe business of tbe sewlni women. We all know tbe result. Tbe women bav more sewing tban before tbe Introduction o tbe machine and pressmen do more worl now tban ever before. Will tbe Democratic party now take up tb flgbt of tbe hotel men ? There is no doubt tbat large corporation cau accommodate tbe public at a mucl less cost tban smaller capltailsts. Th consolidation and management of tbe Rail roads furnish one proof of this. Another instance, where tbe cost of pre t\ nntlnn '??A * uo ureany reduced la In tb consolidation oftbe type foundries. Tbe cob of tbe production of type by the trusts 1 reduced to a minlnum. And tbeir profits ar greatly Increased by tbe saving of expense! Several years ago wben the con petition wa fierce tbe prices of all type were greatly redu( ed. The type trust has been fought wltt apparent bitterness by those firms wblcl disclaim connection with the trust, but ou experience or observation teaches us to be lleve that they work In unison. Twice th price bas been raised by tbe trust, and almoe immediately notice came from those oul?ld tbe trust that tbey would raise the prloe c their type In a similar manner. Tbe bis fish eat up tbe little fisb, If th little fellows do not do the bidding of tbel more pretentious neighbors, and we do nc see any means by which great combination may be lponllw nrooonio/l Th6 state regulates some of Its cbartere corporations, and If some means cannc be devised to prevent the trusts from lmpo Ing upon tbe people, we are at tnelr mere: We can't fight corporations, or trusts, e sucb, but we may resist t^ir encroachment upon as, and prevent tt^^^^reBBlon of th people, by leglslatlve^^^^^Pit. - Dr. Hill's headao^^^^Rer, best old an new style at Mllf^^^^^KPre'a.

There were about twenty-five char- j - acters engaged in the plav, tbe principal ones being Miss Nelle Stack, MIks Jennie Edwards, ( Miss Janle Florlncken. They were well sustained by Miss Fannie Wldeman, Mies Janle 0 8 Galloway, Miss 8uo Ogilvle, Miss Gertrude it Klrkpatrlck and others. The following young j misses also took part: Jose MofTatt, Ruth Todd, Mamie Devlin, Gertrude Brownlee, . e Elise Brock and Newrillo Brooks. Much of .f f ho liiippaRs of the cantata ir due to the tireless d energy of Miss NelJe Stack, who never falls to make a success of anything she underr takes. She Is a remarkable young lady In ? many respectH and Is fast gaining ground In 1 .j Due West.

'* THE THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY. C Q V Saturday night the commencement exer- u clses of Ersklne Theological Seminary were p held in the Associate Reformed cburcti. ine H s evening was somewhat unpleasant, but nev- r ertheless a good large audience bad assembled t to do honor to the occasion. L s Prayer was offered by Rev. James Boyce, c [ and a beautiful anthem, "As Punletb the 0 ' Heart," was suDg by fhe choir. The essays u ' by the graduates had been well prepared and t were presented Id an earnest manner to an p II Interested audience. The subject of Mr. J. H M. Blgham's essay was "Ritualism versus r r Religion." The subject of Mr. J. A. Black's || essay was '"The Spirit of denominational- jj A Ism." There were only two graduates, but H these two are creditable representatives of fl the Seminary.

Grler from the text, "The 9 a fashion of ibis world passetb away." Dr. ? Grler is always appropriate in these baccalau- L reat services. This sermon was no exception. B As be spoke of the passing away of the plans U of this world in so tar as relates to Its greats e ness and glory be was forciful and strong. C He was still more striking when be spoke of (J the things that remain. About eight hun>1 dred people listened to tbe sermon. q rev. sloan's sermon. ll At night Rev. T. W.

At an early hour In tho morning the four main thoroughfares leading Into Due West r" began to pour their living freight Into the lb hitching ground adjoining tbe campus. 1 8 Some came In buggies, some In carriages, H ? some In carts, some In wagons, some a ? on horse back, some on mule back, t Others did not wait to hitch or saddle n their horses, but came on foot. Some a came to see; others came to be seen; some v d came to hear; others came to be heard. Tbe a young men came to see their lady friends, s and the ladles made no attompl to escape n rora their gentlemen friends, so far as we inve been at>le hear. The exercises began at ten o'clock In the orennon. and were opened with prayer by tev. E. P. McCHntock, D. J)., of Newberry, S. THE GRADUATING CLASS.

In presenting diplomas to the young graduttes the remarks of the President of the Colege, Dr. Grler, were exceedingly appropriate. He said that diplomas had been spoken if by some in a reproachful way?that they epresented the impractical in the business corid, and were a hindrance rather than a lelp; tbe tact that without them some perons> bad been successful, bad accumulated noney, made a reputation for themselves .nil got along In the world seemed to confirm he criticism already made. Such a promitent business man as C. P. Huntingdon bad aid that there was too much college educalon ; that many who might have succeedd otnerwlse have been ruined by going to ollege. DIPLOMAS VALUABLE. Dr. Grler affirmed most positively that a ollege diploma, from any reputable college < of value commercially, socially, and in very walk of life; to business men. in the allroad office, and on tbe farm. It should be emembered that the signatures of five or six nembers of a faculty meant something and PHS UUl a IIIHIIJIUIJICM 1u1 lunutjr. i/ycij icjjitable college has a curriculum covering a ierlod of lour year*. The diploma flays the tudent has completed that course. It Is the epresentatlon of best effort on the part of be student, and is proof that he has held to be pursuit or his labors. There may have ome to the student at limes the suggestions f laziness and the soDg of the 6lren of pleasire, but in spite of these tiling'* he haR held o his purpose and completed bis course.. To mrsue a noble and worthy end, notwitbtanding tb$ difficulties that Intervene, Is no mall education In Itself. Tbe habit of hold g on is worth a fortune of money, and the ack of such habit has been tbe ruin of tbous nds. He assured tbe graduates thai the dlficulties they encountered would gradually Isappear, and that under tbe benedictions of leaven they would see that those difficulties rere blessings in disguise. They were told bat their diplomas were testimonials of reard as well as certificates of scholarship, 'hat the faculty vyould watch their courses rith interest and follow them with the arnest prayer that each one would find his lace and till it.

He would be easily recogIzed from his pictures in the Christian terald. He said thai he bad changed his ilnd altogether as to the character of comlenoement addresses, that he bad prepared jme years ago. three or lour profound comlencement addresses?they were very pro>uad. Convinced of his mistake, he had ot used them for several years for two reajns. First, because the people didn't under Land them, and second because tie man i nderstand them himself. Dr. Talmage deghts In happiness and good cheer and has tie happy faculty of Imparting the same plrit to others. He told of the long faced ilnister, who had not laughed lu ten years, rho borrowed twenty-five dollars from him nd out of pure dellaoy of feeling, bad never Blerred to the subject again. The young len were told to avoid a multiplicity of ocupatlons?to And their sphere and keep it. lesald that every man gets a call from Ood s to what be ought to be. He told the voung len to cultivate equipoise of temper ami said here was no land where a man was so lnexusable for being a failure. No man Ik ex usable tor losing his temper. Many u man ecognlzed himself as a member of the tirm f Growl, Spftflre Brother, as described by )r. Talmage. Many a boy heard attentively 11 that he said about ball games, riding and ther amusements. The secret of happiness, le said, was In making others happy. Beware, nd In no wise lormu unwise relations. The escrlptlve power, of the speaker are unequel d. There was much of bumor arid there was nucbofthe wisest counsel. Much to laugh bout and much to think about in our sober aoments.

Tood, followed the reading of essays. Prof. Todd said : Young Ladles of tbe Graduating Class: ro you It is given to possess and, as we believe, to enjoy some dlbtlngulshlng privileges. Ilia yours to graduate, a privilege bowever seemingly common to-day, is rare Indeed. The vast majority of earth's millions do not aud cannot cberlsb a hope for a liberal education. It Is yours to graduate In ;hls the best year of all past time. Notwithstanding fires, floods, famines, lyncblngs, wars, crimes and sins, ibis Is th> bestyear of ill. It Is yours to close your college course with tbe closing of tbls wonderful 10th ;entury. A century ofmarvelons progress In ibe arts and sciences, In literature and religion. a century crowded with blstorlo Interest, sallowed with splendid triumphs. To be llvng, to be graduating at such a time Is Indeed jubilme. I Tbe toilsome days and weary pigbta of itudy over text books an ended and you enter i wider sphere to live, as we believe, larger Ives. What your lives will be depends under 3od. not upon what you Know nor what you save but solely upon what you are. By tbe mmortil law and matchless gruce of God pou may each become all that Is In your leart to oe, If you will but pay tbe price. But argeness of heart, nobility of soul Is never for tale on the stock exchange. Ills always acjulred ty deliberate, definite cbolce, support)d by earnest, persistent effort. All approve .be right, but tbe multitudes choose tbe wrong. I would that I could fix Indelibly In pour minds tbls trntb: You are not and you lever will be what you approve but you are ind you will be to all eternity wbat you jboose. "Every choice Is for eternity." You have learned that deliberate choice ind untiring effort are the price of success in College life. Carry tbe lesson wltb you as an ihldlng conviction into the broader life. Let iot greatness of plan nor greatness of posseslion, but largeness of soul and cbrlstliness of iharacter, be tbe. ultimate end of all your ihooslng and all your efforts. As tbe years some and go may each ol you grow In large* sess of heart and in all tbe charms of an Ideal womanhood.
