August Kohn, writing from Colum bia to the News and Courier on cotton mill development in South Carolina, says: "At Newberry, S. C., the contract for the Oakland Cotton mills has been awarded to the Fiske-Carter company, of Spartanburg. Work on the mills will commence at once, and it is expected the building will be ready for the in stallation of the machinery by the first of May. The Oakland mills will be lo cated in the northern suburbs of the city, which is an ideal place -for such a plant and village. The property eontains 316 acres. The main build ing will be four stories in height, 216 feet long and 130- feet wide. The ware houses and engine room will be sep arate buildings. Col. Walter H. Hunt Is president of the organization, and he will have the assistance of an able directorate. The capital stock is $400, 000, an unusually large part of which has been subscribed locally."

In view of the fact that Hon. Cole. L. Blease, of Newberry, is to take the SOth of office as governor of tha State of Souith Carolina. on the 17th day of Januar, there will be some little gen interest in his words of farewell, in tuning over the municipal govern ment of the little city d& Newberry, of which he Is just completing his termn as mayor. SIn this connee:tion, it 'Is interesting t o recall that, when Mr. Blease was e lected to the governorship of South Carolina, against- a very strong op s position, there was a considerable spe Seulation as to just how "wide open' h ~e was going to run, the State of South Carolina, and It 'was even inti .ted,- recently, that, as a result of his electi(n, certain people were pre. paring to establish a big race track in South Carolina-though we con fess we fail to see exactly wherein the connection would be. Among those who were and are politically opposed to Mr. Ble'ase, there was an iniclina tion, outwardly anyway, to the belie: that some of the State laws would no1 be rigidly enforced under his admnin istration, or, anyway, that 'the Stat4 would not be as "tighrt" as it might be under some other administration. If his statement or his administra tion is going to be, the disappoint ment to his critics will be gratifying to the unbiased. In his annual address to the coun cil of Newberry Thursday, Mr. Bleas' said: "When IL,announced my canac: for the positionpQgmayor, I s 'ted tha I favored open sesns ?ie towi council; 'keeping accu ' uns all moneys receiv *d out, anm sed that I adv 'ng a cla w, clean s - n financial af ~and e Is-" ease r any other nan, and nigh e1i apply to the State as the mu 1 .government, and, when it ha ed. with it, 'as Mr. Blease sai ad, "a strict enforcem3ent of al uces in regard to vagrancy, 'an economical administration< cial affairs," it seems a complel omwhat has been learned < berry, the people there belies Mr. Blease has made them a good ma: or. For the State, there are a gree many people who did not want hii for governor while a great many, hb sides those who did, have since e: pressed the opi12ion that he- is goil to improve an opportunity, like whic comes but seldom, if more than onc in a lifetime, and surprise his oppo: ents. If Mr. Blease can say for himse as much, when he has' completed t1 term of office he'is now about to ent! upon, as he has said~ of the term I has concluded, he will have more the accomplished all his most ardent su: porters have said and hoped for hi2 Referring to the platform promises is mayoralty campaign, he say ach and every one of these has bet Tied out, and put into executiol with the one exception of efforts t< secure a modern'railway bridge, whicl is being worked upon. Continuing h( says: "During the year we have had n( tent shows, no street fakirs, no rowdy ism, no open clubs, but few blind tig ers, no loafing negro women on th< streers who have not been given a lesson, no vagrants, no contagioui diseases, no boisterous dances, no in decent shows on the streets or else where." All of which is a good record t( close an administration with, and con sideration of which would naturall3 bring the hope from the disintereste ones on the outside that the State 01 South Carolina may get similar ef fective service from its next gover nor. TWO AVIATORS KILLED. Last Day of 1910 Marked By. Deaths ol Two of Most Prominent Avia tors in the World. John B. Moisant and Arch Hoxsey aviators extraordinary, were killed or Saturday. Both fell out of the treach erous air currents with their ma cines-neither from a vast height and Moisant's remaining minutes o Me were so few as to count as naught Roxsey was killed instantly. Moisant met his death at 9.55 a. m., attempting to alight in a field a few miles from New Orleans, La. Hoxsey, who went into the air early in the af ternao6n at Los Angeles, Cal., lay al 2.12 p. m. a crushed, lifeless mass In view of. the thousands who were watching the; aviation tournament. Thus the last day of 1910, in bring ing the total number of deaths- o aviators to thirty, capped the lis4 with tyo of the most illustrious 6J those airmen who hav-e been making the history of aviation in the sky oi two continents. Ilsant Began Year Ago. Moisant, a Chicagoan by birth, af ter an adventurous life in Centra] America, became interested in aviatior in France; less thai a year ago. Afte3 soaring into public recognition by hik plucky flight from Paris across the English ctannel to London, with E passenger, Moisant's fearlessness anc resourcefuhess was exhibited fre quently. Fnding himself without a machine, he~ purchased one from 2 'friend for il0,000, and wistiin ter minutes stared on his winning fligh' Ifrom Belmon. Par-k, N.

On SaturdaI a sudden puff of winu caught him vithin 500 feet of thi earth, turned lie machine over and broken neck te"minated his career. Held Atitude Record. Arch Hoxsey,a after a year' of uni form success vith the Wright aero planes, had gaiied a name for darin) sund competence n the air. Only wit( .' the n "k be bA set a new wvoid' altitude record <f 11,474 feet, an then, to show -hi contempt for thl earth had sailed majestically mor than 4,000 feet move the highes mnounte-n in Califonia..
