FACTS FROM TIIF FACTORY. The manufacture of cotton has be come one of the most important in dustries in our midst today, and the multiplication of factory towns are giving rise to various problems which have an important bearing on the social, political and industrial in terests of the country. The factory vote has become a strong temptation to low politicians to excite the prejudices of tlie operatives by in dulging in hypocritical cant about the oppressions of incorporated capi tal; while outside of politics much has been said and written by men utterly ignorant of the actual condi tions, and much more by men who were so blinded by prejudice as to be incapable of anything like a fair presentation of facts. Happening to be at Pacolet thills last Saturday and having a leisure hour on hand, we determined to look into particulars more closely than we had ever done before, as much for our own personal satisfac tion as for the purpose of laying our observations before the public. We sought and obtained permission to go through the mill, with a compe tent guide and here is what we saw and heard, without either perversion or embellishment: The first room visited was the picker room, above which the bales are opened and into which the loose cotton is thrown, preparatory to its start through the machinery. Here we found one man attending to live picking machines ranged in a row. He had his sleeves rolled up above the elbows, and would gather up an arm-full of the loose cotton pitch it into a machine in bulk, and pass on to the next machine which he treated in the same manner. The cotton passed out of the machines slowly and we noticed that after he had thrown into each of the five, he took a seat and waited leisurely for the cotton to pass out of the first machine, when he would begin the round again. After watching him several minutes wo concluded that he was not actively employed more than half his.time. Just to the right of him was a little boy about ten years of age, feeding a dainty little ma chine on cotton wads about the size of hickory nuts, which, we were told, collected on the spindles, and were passed through this machine in or der to straighten out the fiber and save it for use. The boy here was a bright little fellow and seemed proad of his machine and glad to impart information about it. He told us that he was getting twenty- five cents a day. In the next room we found three men handling rolls of bats that had been passed in from the pickers, which they passed on into the card ing room. The machinery in this room is divided into sections, one hand attending to a section. Each hand litre gets from seventy-five cents to one dollar a day, according to the number of cards in his or her section. A hoy apparently l. r j or I<» years old brings rolls to the carders ir. boxes mounted on wheels at sev enty-five cents a day, while another boy about 12 years old moves the cans of rolls on to the drawing frames, at forty cents a day, and still another boy at the same wages moves them ^on to still finer frames. They are then passed on to what are called the feeders and slubbers, where the rolls are spun out into still finer threads. These machines were watched and manipulated by both boys and girls, who we were told were paid each ♦1.05 a day. We found here also two little boys who were making each twenty-five cents a day, by stay ing around sweeping the aisles oc casionally, and making themselves generally useful. Men and women too, were hero watching long rows of whirling spools, and removing arid replacing us they were filled and emptied. We were told that these received each $1.05 a day. Then wo were carried by an eleva tor up into the spinning room proper, which is the most popular room in the^njll* This room is full was a number of little boys, called dofTers, whose business was to assist the spinners, and who were required to be on duty every other hour. The spinners get fifty cents a day, and the dofTers thirty-five cents. We judged the ages of the spinners to range from 12 to 10 years, and of the dofTers from 10 to Hi. At the end of this room were the warping frames, three of which wore looked after by one girl who gets sev enty-five cents a day. We noticed a comfortable seat attached to the wall, which we were told the girl could occupy fully half of her time, her duties consisting in watching for the breaking of threads and remov ing the great spools when they get full. It takes about, 3.1 hours for all these to fill, and on an average the operative has to thread up one about every hour. The regular spooling frames are in rows with one girl to each row. She gets ♦IS a month, while another girl who attends to a longer row of frames gets ♦! a dav. Here, as everywhere else, the pay is in proportion to the skill and efficiency of the operative. We next passed to the sizing room, presided over by men who get from seventy-five cents tofl. 1<> a day. The heavy spools are lifted into place by a chain full, and the men for the most part merely stand and watch the machinery do the work. We were told that the men in this room all came from the farms in the sur rounding country where they hud beeii accustomed to perform heavy manual labor at fifty cents a day. In passing through the different de partments of the mill, we struck some of the operatives at their idle 1 hours and others at their busy hours, hut we learned that hardly any one in the mill is busy all the time. The only place we visited where all the work was nut done by machinery was one side of this sizing room, where long rows of girls were seated and busily putting the threads into harness by hand, just as our mothers used to do. 'J'hesc girls get from ♦I I to ♦20 a month. The noisest room in the whole mill is the weave room which we entered next. The clashing of the hundreds of looms is deafening, and we found it difficult to hear the information which our guide attempted to give us. We managed to see, however, that the looms are managed by men, women, boys and girls, and to learn that one hand attends to from four to eight looms, at wages ranging from ♦25 to ♦85 a month or from ♦! to ♦1.50 a day. In following the various processes through which the cotton passes from the bale to the cloth, we have but one more step to take and that is into the cloth room. Here we were first attracted by four little boys manipulating something like dainty sewing machines which stitched the ends of different pieces of. cloth together and then passed the cloth on into great rolls. These boys were as clean and neat ns dry goods clerks and seemed intent upon their work. They get each forty cents a day. T1 cloth then passes through an other machine between emery rol lers and sand papered wheels which take ofl all the loose nap and leave it smooth and glossy. There was a hoy 12 years old attending to this j machine who told us that he had to | change his rolls about every half ! hour and that it took him about five minutes to make the change. He admitted that during the rest of the time which constituted fully five- sixths of the whole, he had nothing to do. He gets sixty cents a day, and works about ten minutes an hour. The cloth is then put into the fold ing machine where a boy sits and counts the folds as they are made at the rate of fifty or sixty a minute. This boy gets seventy cents a day and never makes a mistake. After the cloth is folded into bolts, another man puts the bolts into a slumping machine, and a boy called the rag boy, stands and applies a blotter to the stumps as fast as they come from the stamping machine. The bolts are then inspected by some girls when they are put into bales and pressed into small compass un der a powerful press. The boy who counts the folds gets seventy cents a day, the rug boy forty cents, the inspectors sixty-live cents and the stamper and baler seventy-five cents each. The operatives in every depart ment were us healthy and contented looking set of people us we have ever seen ; the building is kept perfectly comfortable in all weather; there is no muscular exertion required any where, us machinery does all the lifting when anything weighty is to be moved. When we returned to the office, we were permitted to look into the book in which are kept the accounts of all of long spinning fram^ intended to i the operatives. Wo opened it at by long rows of t)#ys amY i^'TSh rlWidorn and olimr-fH (»v4.p « f„... by long rows of moys ’ un( X qLU'fftt These b<$ys and girls all seemed to have their 4 eyes open, hut thelrlmnds were not kept at all busy, us the ogiy tting they - had to do was to mend a thread here and there when one would break, A * f v wt) ^ w» -w- ' and glanced over a few W o noted that one man v^iHi three children hud a credit ! of'Vf.bf * a month. He himself, we : leurrfed,' was too old ami feeble to . work.* A widow with two children, ne of them out, hud a credit of u. We noted here that the company had furnished her supplies to an amount greater than her earn ings. Then we noticed a credit of ♦81 to the account of a man with one child, ♦81.10 to the credit of a widow with three children, all girls; and ♦40.05 to another widow with four children, all girls. Of course these were all monthly credits. We learned on inquiry that the Methodist and the J’aptist denomi nation have each a church building which cost about ♦2,000. The Bap tist raised about ♦(>00 and the Metho dist ♦800 towards the building of these churches, and the company paid the balance. The company further pays every Sunday to each church of all denominations, that holds religious services. Wc enquired about the school and found that over 100 pupils attended it last session. The company accepts what money is appropriated from the pub lic fund and pays the balance of the expenses, keeping four teachers regularly employed, and charging no one a cent for tuition. We present these bare facts this week and hope they will be read. We have not room for any comments of our own. We take it for granted that the same general conditions prevail in other mills in this section that prevail at Pacolet. ETTA JANE ETCHINGS. Fen FictureM of Iiitvri'Ktin^ InlereHt-- FventK in l.ower Cherokee. (Correspondence of The J»ecftjer.) Etta Jane, October <i.—Yester day’s rain caught a good deal of hay down and cotton in the field. At the meeting of the Broad River Association, at Draytonville church a few weeks ago an old veteran from the upper section of our country at tended, who was asked if he was a electioneering, and he said he was. He was met again at a similar gather ing in N. C., and when asked the same question said he was “looking round,” for he didn’t know but that his wife might die and then he might electioneer in that state some, too. Mrs. Ann Eliza Camp, of State Line, visited her Union and Cherokee county friends last week. Mrs. Camp was a Miss Coudelock and is one of the best women who ever lived in this section. We are glad to know that she is getting along well. We had the pleasure of attending the meeting of the Cherokee County S. S. Convention at Corinth last week. Ignite a large congregation was present, especially on Sunday. The organization was perfected and is now in a position to do its work. The Corinthians treated that body with profuse hospitality and to their successful work we may attribute the success of the convention. It was the good fortune of the writer to be assigned a home with the family of Mrs. John Pettit, where he hud all the comforts, of a well furnished home bestowed upon him. The fam ily are friends and patrons of The Ledger afid hold it in high esteem. We are yet to hear the first com plaint of the conventional work. In the absence of our esteemed and ac complished president, It. O. Sams, the vice president, T. M. Littlejohn, presided, and managed every detail of the work with his accustomed firm ness and fairness. We confidently expect great good accomplished by this organization in Cherokee county. We also spent several days in CafT- ney this week, during which time we met people from all parts of the county who spoke hopefully of the outlook of our county. There is no discounting the fact that with the ! proper management of our allairs we I will have the banner county of the state. Mr. James Eison, who has been sawing lumber in this neighborhood for several weeks, has moved bis machinery for the present. Ho will return this winter and do some saw- log. Mr. Ed Clary is a model farmer and one of Rowlingsviile’s best citi zens. He also runs a dairy. He bus eight line milch cows from which he gets an abundance of milk and butter. He has all the improved methods for making butter and, withal, he is a hustler. Like every other married man who succeeds in business he has a wife to whom at least half of his success may be attributed. It is seldom the case that industrious women get credit for the success of their husbands which their care, attention and man agement make possible. Mr. Meek C. Parker has charge of the mail service, as carrier, between GalTney and this place. Several of our Pea Ridge friends came over to attend court at GalTney tliis week. Mrs. Rebecca Tolleson Osment, of Henderson, N. 0., is visiting friends and relatives in this section. Several farmers who have tried it say (hut their corn doesn't “shuck out” this year like it ought to. The price of cotton is some en couragement to those who have it to sell. But it will have to go much higher yet before it fully pays the farmers for raising it, this year at least. The scandal monger is always loaded with news. It’s no trouble for him to get it and it is always a pleasure to deliver the goods. On the third Sabbat h of this month, 15th inst., Rev. W. E. Crocker will preach his farewell sermon at El be hel. He and his good lady expect soon to sail for their mission field beyond the Atlantic. While their work is a noble one and their self sacrifice truly commedable their friends hate to part with them. .1. L.

J. i.. s. ill 1*1*11 IIof Town ( OtlllHI. The regular monthly meeting of the town council took place Friday night. All the members of the coun cil were present. The routine busi ness of the oouncil was gone through with in the usual order. A motion to erect a house on the cemetery grounds for a keeper was carried and the clerk instructed to ask for bids from the contractors. The cemetery committee—Messrs. Smith and Cash —were authorized to employ a sur veyor and lay oil additional lots in the cemetery. This was a good move on the part of the board, and it is to be Imped j 2 that they will bestir themselves and give the cemetery more attention than they have in the past. There is no spot that is so sacred as the city of the dead and all that can pos sibly be done to beautify it should he done. In fact it should be made the most beautiful and attractive place in the city and we hope that it will be. Friz*? for a l.ittl*; (Url.
