At t?o mooting ot tho stockhold'oro

ensuing year;

I and asfdstant treasurer.
The. directora declared a semi
annual.dividend ot 3 por cent payable
! July lat.
? 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. We feel these articles
i do moro harm than, good, and whets
in enror should be corrected."
The directors authorized the prest
! dont to establish free, shower baths
for tho people, of the mill village, and
tb provide' cor iain amusements ' '. for
L the benefit ot the employees of Ul9
mill. ' , .
