To Have Another Mill.
In addition to the increase of the
Union mills, the starting of the
Buffalo and Alpha cotton mill
enterprises, the people of Union
are to have still another cotton
mill. This latest company got its
commission from the secretary of
state yesterday. It is to be known
as the Monarch Cotton Mills. The
corporators are all staunch citizens'
of Union-Jno. A. Fant, T. C.
Duncan, A. H. Foster, F. M. Farr
and E. Nicholson. The company
?pr voses to operate a roller-mill
and ice plant in connection with
the mill. The capital stock is
be $200,000, divided into shares of
$100 ea?h.-The State. :
Here are some of the admissions
secured from Henry O. Have
meyer,, president of the Sugar
Trust, when he appeared before
the Commission in June last at
Washington, and from others:
Henry O. Havemeyer-I would
state freely that where a corpora^
tion dealing particularly in things
that are essential to the benefit of
mankind-clothing, fuel, oil sugar,
food or anything which would
become,, as I describe it, of* a
quasi-public charcter-it would be
b?n?ficiai to the public to have
them under Government supervis
ion.
It is the Government, through
its tariff laws, which pl?ndere the
people and the trusts, etc., are
merely the machinery for doing it.
The true "communion of pelf
is the Customs Tariff bill. It
says to the people : "Here is a law
we have enacted for your robbery.
Do not complain of it."
