Democrat.-Newberry Observer. I A- COTTON FACTORY. As the people of our town are just now exercised, and laudably so, upou the question of a cotton factory, the following latter- will not be amiss. This letter was written by the secretary and man ager of the Bamberg cotton factory to the editor of the Colleton Press and Standard : "Time will not permit me to write such an article as you should have-for your, paper. I am glad to see that ypur people are coming to the front, and hope the time is not far distant when every town in the State will have her cotton mill. We need diversified business, and there is no enterprise which will help your town more than a cotton mill. "It is the characteristic of opera tives to spend all they make, and to open up the pay-roll of $1,200 to $1,500 per month in your tow? will increase^0 *h?:'\ ^~,%'^f^\5?:.. "-.v.'''' *:...

"You can put up a nice mill for $100,000. This would give you 5,000 spindles and 165 looms, as it should not cost you in excess of $20 per spindle. Should you put in spindles and no looms you could put in 10,000; but I would advise that you put in looms and a few extra spindles for the purpose of working up your waste. I would further advise that your weaving - be on fine cloth, say 4 and 6 yards to the pound. The number of bales of cotton consumed will depend largely upon the class of goods you make-the finer your goods the smaller the amount of cotton consumed. "Such a plant as you contemplate would consume from six to eight bales per day. "It would be well to locate your mill as near the railroad as pos ' sible, and at the same time, con venient to water. This would save you hauling your goods machinery, and coal, should you use coal,and I advise that you do nnless you can get 4-ft wood delivered at $1. 25 per cord. "If you can give a good strong note, you can buy your machinery for one-third cash, balance in one and two years at 6 per cent in terest. . "It would require about 115 hands to operate the above plan. As to the average wages paid I am not in a position to say accurately, from the fact that they vary from 10 cents to $2.50 per day owing to the skill of the operative. Most operatives are paid by the piece. Slubbers,speeders,spoolers twisters, and spinning are all piece work, also weavers andso on throughout the various- departments. You may open up with a few experien ced operatives and draw on your surrounding country for the resi due, as they are more likely to remain in your employ and are generally more reliable than the floating class common to all mills. "Much of your expenses can be saved by a well-constructed and convenient building. I would ad vise that you build a one-story not over two at any rate-brick building. One overseer, with his various assistants could superin tend all, where, if you had a three story, it would require one for each ?tory. "It will take 200 to 225 horse power engine. / "If I can be of further service to you I shall be pleased to serve you. In the selection of your . machinery and the plan for your building I might give you some points or assistance that would be of benefit tb you. Yours, very truly, "W. G.. SMITH.

Miles, an Hour. OMAHA, NU., April 8.-The gale which swept" over ' Nebraska | yesterday bore before it great bil lows of flame which swept from thousand of fertile acres every [ vestige of vegetation. The ^limta I of the fire which has raged during the last ten days have become al j most state wide and the destruc truction that was thought might be small has become enormous. It is too soon to get any idea of | how much the exact damage is, for the places most affected are remote from telegraph lines. It is known, though, that muon grap and hay in store together with many barns and other out buildings, miles of fences, dozens! .of dwellings and many bridges) have bten^licked'up. Whether any [lives have been lost is? not repor ted, though it seems almost de yond doubt that some Bettlers who | are located away from easy assis tance must have perished. In-Banner county the village of j Ashmore is supposed to have been completely destroyed. , Word was brought to Harrisburg last night by the driver of the stage that the town was directly in the path of the fire at4 o'clock, and that the entire pupulation of the village was engaged in a battle to save their homes. The stage driver re? ported-having seen Several - dwel ling houses in flame? aud settlers fleeing for their lives.

Neb., April 8.-I A disastrous praire fire broke out j south of Sutherland in this county yesterday. The loss will probably reach $1.000.00. It is claimed that the fire was started by a passing engine. Never has such a dis astrous prairie fire devastated the valley. Everything fora distance of twenty-five miles is in ruins and the width reaches from three to four miles. Everything, corrals, barns, fences and haystacks are in ashes The fire started south of Sutherland ? . ah ort ly; before noon and swept everything before it travelling at the rate of from 30 to 50 miles an hour. Shortly after 12 o'clock it struck the city of North Platte wheie only by almost superhuman efforts the town was saved. The fire com panies responded to the alarm as soon as it was known the fire was I raging west of the city and when they reached the outskirts of the city the fire was upon them and fought them back within the water limits. Almost everything beyond the water limits was licked up in a few minutos by the flames. The faimers and ranchers in this neighborhood will lose everything. A SWARTH 15 MILES WIDE Ainsworth, Neb., April 8. Tho most fearful fire that has been witnessed in this country for many years passed over nearly all of the country from three or four miles north of this city to the Moorara river, a distance of fifteen mileB, yesterday, destroying much property and imperilling life. The wind blew a gale. Parties coming through the burned district say the fury of the fire could not be described. It swept over the prairie at the rate of forty miles an hour. 75 MILE8 AN HOUR.

What Bad Roads Cost 1 Country* The Board of Trade in a Tenn see town, in a recent memorial the Legislature, demonstrated tl bad roads were costing the p pie of that commonwealth nv than .$7.000.000 annually.. Pi W. W. Carson of the University Tennessee after careful investi] tioii, found the average cost hauling to the Knoxville marl by wagon to be $7.50 per ton aggregating $1.250.000 a year the total tonnage hauled. ] maintained - that this hauli could have been done for half t sum over good dirt roads and J one-sixth of it over good macadi roads, saving 31.000.000 annual Prof. Richard T. Daly of the Joh Hopkins University and Secreta of the American Economic J sociation affirmed that poor roa cost this country over $20 a hor and Prof. Jenks of Knox Collei 111., thinks $15 a horse a low esl mate for the loss.

J?SM the United DiaVpn ?/i?uec 1. says : I have made a careful coi putation from such data as I ha been able to obtain of the cost < bad roads (which figures will 1 published and I find they ti what is understood to be agrien tural products fully $135.000.0( annually. I think it a modera estimate to put the other coi tributions to bad roads by tl remainiug traffic of the coun try : an equal amount, making a tot; of $270.000.000." WILL GOOn ROAUS PAY? Mr. Stephen Favill of Madiso Wis., in an article on highway says: "Butthe question of whei her or not it will pay to build an? care for our country roads i fortunately not all theory but th practical demonstration has bee] worked out. England, France, Germany, and many other of thi European countries have col vet this problem to their entire satis faction, and some parts of ou: own country have tried this matte] far enough to prove that as a busi ness venture it is one of the ven best for the farmers. There hat been no general taking hold ol this matter in this country as in European countries, but some ol the States have laws allowing counties to bond and borrow moue j to build roads. My time will al low me to give only one or two ol the many good results that have come from good roads. In Union county .JN. J., the road improvement fever got hold of the people and they expended $350.000 in ma cadamizing their roads, and the testimony of those best qualified to- know is that the increased valuation of their lands would more th au six times pay the cost. Just one case of a mah owning 123 acres that he valued at $65 an acre and could not find a buyer at that, had since the advent of good roads, refused $200 an acre for the whole tract. I do not claim that rate, but I am confident that the increase in the value of our farming lands that would fol low the advent of good roads in our State would very much more than pay all the cost of buildug them, to say nothing of the con venience and luxury 'of having a road that could be used at any season of the year." The experinonce of every well informed man teaches that in each and every case where good roads have been constructed, property has advanced to such an extent as to make the improvement cost absolutely nothing.

C. -THEE Union Mutual Life Insurance Company, OIF1 IFO^TLAJSO), I1VLAXN"DS. Incorporated, 1848. Its Policies are the Most Liberal Now, Offered to the Public. IB l he only existing Company whose policies are, o: can Le subject to the MAINE NON-FORFEITURE LAW. WHAT IT IS. - The Maine Non-Forfeiture law protects policies from forfeiture by reason of default of payment of premiums. It provides that, after three years' premiums have been paid, failure to pay any subsequent premiums shall not forfeit a policy, but it shall continue in force for its full amount until the reserve (iess a small surrender charge) upon the policy is exhausted. | The reserve is a sum made up of portions of each and every pre mium paid upon a policy in anticipation of its, maturity. Beginning with a small portion of the first premium, it is increased each year by the addition of each subsequent premium, and grows larger year by year, until, at maturity, it oxactly equals the face of the policy. When a policy is discontinued therefore, there is in the hands of tho Conch pany a reserve, greater or less, according to the character and age of the policy. Instead of permitting the Company, upon non-payment of premium, lo confiscate this reserve, the Maine Non-Forfeiture Law requires the Company to continue the policy in. force until the policy holder receives un equivalent for it in extended insurance.' How IT WORKS. If a perron, aged 35, pay6 three years' premiums upon a twenty^ payment Life policy and then discontinues payment, th? p?Jicy will be continued 4 years and-257 days longer; if he pays five premiums, and then discontinues, the insurance- will continue 7 years and 357 days longer. If the policy is a twenty year endowment, same age, three years' payments will give an extension of 8 years and 150days; five years' payment 13 years, 300 days. If the policy is a l&Tear Endowment, ! ($1,000) same age, three years'payments will secure insurance to the % end of the endowment period and $13.68 in cast if insured lives till that time, and in like manner ten years' payments secures insurance for the full 15 years and $592.17 in cash. ^ These extensions vary with the age of the insured, lhe class of ; oolicy, iu years and days, for each number of payments, so that the olicy-holder knows ata glance exactly what he is entitled to if he ?8continues his payments at any time. What It Has Done. The Company Has Paid over Two Hundred Death Claims, in con sequence of this law, aggregating in sums insured more than Four Hundred Thousand Dollars. In every case there had been a default in *he payment of pre mium, and, except for this law, the policies would have been of little or no value. Instead of this, the insurance in cachease was extended to the time of death, and the Company was required to pay to the beneficiaries under the policies the sum of $418,335.77. Tie Tirol lie Lat Eitensions as Cipi WITH PATTVTTP VA.LTTBS. It is the custom of many companies to provide in their policies that, upon discontinuance of payment of Premium, paid-up policies will be given, without the option of extension. This was the practice of the Union Mutual before the Maine Non-Forfeiture Law was en acted, but it now substitutes for paid-up values the more advantage ous plan of extended ineurance. The<pbjection to the paid-up system is that the amount of paid-up insurance which is given upon the dis continuance of payments upon a policy, unless it has been in force a great many years, is insignificant, and of little or no value as protec tion ; and it leaves the insured who ceases payment without adequate insurance at the very time he needs it the most. > The great advantage of the extended insurance afforded by the Maine Law over the most liberal paid-up system is strikingly shown by the following comparison, and it will be observed that the. paid-up value is insignificant in cornparieou with the amount actually paid by the Union Mutual. The result of two hundied aud twelve policies was this: If the insured had received paid-up policies instead of ex tended insurance, the Company would have had to pay in settlement of the claims only. $98,197.50 Whereas, in fact, it did pay under the Maine Law, $418,344.77 Making a difference in favor of the beneficiaries under Two Hundred and Twelve policiei of $320,147.28 ' - :' * The policies are free from ?//restrictions, and incontestible after ONE YEAR. A grace of one month is given in the payment of premiums. For further information call on, or address, B. B. EVANS, ? Manager for South Carolina, Office, No. 1, Advertiser Building, JJLjJLJm ?5?.
