Wednesday morning the committee on tUc woolen mill eubeldy wont out to got tho remainder of the $25,000 a'ook mbsldy taken, feeling anything but hopeful. There were still a dozen mon In to stru who hnd not subscribed but who hod not rehufled the com. rnltUo entirely. These were canyosscd as tho auiruala were paid to havo cone luto Noah's nrlt, "two by two " Tho rebuff were more plainly glveu, however, and ut noon there was not n dollar In sight, except one of the committee who had agreed to raise tho commllUe'H subscription to $1000. But In the afternoon thtte subscrip tions ca e In for $70 that were not expected. The clouds lifted. The committee breathed easier. The (7C0 was n perfect godsend. It was made up by $600 from Sutton and wlfo of Liberty fruit farm region. Ho has a hai a nice bomb oat there and has felt friendly toward this enterprise from tho start. Considering the condition of farming, the fact that tho farmers have taken nearly (2000 of this ntock Is quite remarkable. Then camo $150 from Mrs. Steves proprietor of the Court street bakery, a woman who has a hoart for tho labor log people. Tho women wore not specially called upou to take stook, but tho volunteers, whoso names aro found in tho list below deserve the commen dation and good will of the commltteo and of tho public Tho other volunteers was Walter Jonks, for $100 J. J. Murphy had been looked upon to assist in the hour of need and ho very gonerously sub scribed $200. Mr. McCoruauk added f 300 and that swelled tho total to $2o, 800. Thero should still be $700 added, as theso subscriptions always shrink and it Is Bald business mon subscribed to tho gift of $20,000 six years ago who have never paid. Tho oonplete list of bonafldo sub scribers comprlso 72 names and tho list Is nn interesting one both for names It contains as well as for the names It does not contain. Tho sub. scrlptlor.8 aro all voluntary. No pro s tiro or Improper lulluenco was brought to bear by tho committee. The stook Is all taken as n bouulldo investment. Tho committee had tho assistance of a number of geutlemeu who do not care to bo named who did as rauohlf not more than tho committee to make the subsidy a success. To theso g)n tlemon and to the subscribers the com mltteo caii do no moro at present than to simply thank them. Tho hard times, the temerity of capitalists, (ho failure of so many block companies, made the task ot ecu ring the tuking of this nn extremely dililcult and deli cate task, ltut the splendid record of the Balem Woolen Mills In the past, tho fair deallug and honorable methods that havo charao!erizod the nianugimeut in the past, more than overcame all the obstacles. Those who could not take stock spoko well of the enterprise. Those who did tako stock urged others to do so. Those who had stockrgave a favorable report cf tho way they were treated by Mr. Kay. Thos. Kay, Br., and Thos, Kay, Jr., weie constant workora for the cause of tho subsidy and most cflectlve workers. They could look every man square in the face aud ask his asalstance wlitiout apology. They made it possible to raise this subsidy and did as much as tho committee. The Jouhnal wishes to thank theso gentlemen for laying aside their modesty and taking bold as they did. Their work wasponstant and very effective. WHAT WILL UK DONK. Thomas Kay, fir., and an architect will go at once to inspect several mills In California that are more modern and belter adapted for the larger works that will now be put in here at Halem.

Balem, Dec. 12, 1695, Editok Jeuknal: I heartily rejolco with the citizens of our city ou tho completion of the subsidy for the new woolen mill, and foel Uko publicly thanking tho soliciting committee for their earnest efforts and to congratulate thorn on tho triumphant success of all their labors in this regard. Years ai?o, when a subsidy of $20,000 iu cash was asked to erect woolen mills In this city, I was oh the soliciting com mltteo, and not only gave a generous subscription to further that object, but, leaviug my business wholly for four weeks, labored early- and late with my associates until at last success crowned our efforts and the Required sum was obtained, and those Who were with mo on that committee know what tbo words "labored earlyt and lato" Imply. We were mot with all kinds of taunts. "The sherltr will oloeo tho mills In six months." "Tho whole thing will fall, aud wo shall have tbo elephant on our bauds." ''It will never pay," oto., eto. Years havo come and kouo,but slneo the spindles first showed life aud motion to tho hour whon tho flames destroyed tho enterprise and fanlory, "Buocess" has been written on every inovo tho dlrcotors of thotinlll uayo made; and through tho last threo years of general buslucss depression there haa been no curtailment of tho pay roll, no cessation of labor, but early and late, night and day, for sx days In every week, tho machinery has run, aud when tho mill was destroyed, orders for mauy mouttiB ahoad of tho capacity of the mill were on file In tho business office. Over half a million dollars has been distributed in our city, the credit of the mill ranking No. 1 to tho last hour. Ou tho broad foundation ot lion est, prudont and successful manage mont of this mill by Thos. Kay and his associates, the new and larger mills will bo erected, and I,predlot greater success thau evor fur this enterprise. Then, tho mills had u reputation to gain; this haa been secured, and tbo experience gained In this management will still further Insure irlumpbnut success. Whilo I Iivo I shall Jive in Balem, nnd I rejoice to know that tbo good name: our fair city baa enjoyed for euttrprlso and thrift, In still untar nished, and that wo have already regained one of the greatest losses of the last forty days.

A local paper says: In hor struggle for Independence, Cuba has found a powerful ally In tbo Islaud i.f Porto lllro. According to the latest IntellUenoo, Bpaln has now two tusurrpcllonn on her bands, or will havo Ifthe plana mtlurlng aro carried out. Porto Klco has gone so far, It in said, as to Issue a declaration of Inde pendence, and will soou Join her sister land In the active Btrugglo for llbeity Ati army la being formed by tho separ atist party of Porto Rice, aud ni soon as tho leaders aro chosen the now cam paign will op'iu. As In tho Venezuela affair, tho revolutionist aro Cuban compatriots, residing Iu this city, and tbo adnio secrecy attended their uiovo uiontB. At n tiiootlnjj held at tbo home of Dr, J. Julio Hanua, business that waa calculated to further haraw tho Bpaulsh government was transacted. It was thero that tho Initial steps woro takou In this country toward a revolu tion in Porto Kloo. If thoso plans, and and those formed by tho lenders on tho Island, are carried out, tho first blow against Bp'iln wilt bo stniik In a very short time, It may bo but a few days before tho peoplo of Porto Itloo, tho only Bpanlah provlnue In tho West Indies which Is not rnvoltlng against the mother country will bo In arun against Spain. Tho leaders hero claim that a vigor ous declaration of Independence baa neon prepared by tho leader of tto Porto Rloan separatist party, aud that It Is their Intention to Issue this as soon a they fee' su that they can defan I themselves against any action Spat l may take. A Porto Klcan In New York declared thlsnuybjln oh than a week. Th declaration of Independence was tn pared on the Island aud at least one copy was sent to this city for tlve leaders to paej up an. They have given It their approval and have bo Informed the separatist party m Porto Itlco. In (darting this revolution in Porto Rice, tbo Isadora are fully cirrylojc out the original plana of General Joso ', Marti, tho late leader of tin Cuban revolution, which was to flrii get the Cuban lusurreotlou well undor way, and thon to encourage, or rnilier create a similar uprising In Porto It.j .
