No Great Difference
Indications now are that there will
be no great difference in rates to the

of tickets and the choice of routes in

To most of the American people
today John Alexander Dowic is but
a memory The world at large was
forced for a time at least to acknowl
edge his transcendent commercial
genius The establishment of Zion
City the immigration to it of fol
lowers from all over the civilized
world the founding of the lace indus
tries and other enterprises of magni
tude in that colony the blending of
civil and religious authority in a way
which recalled the patriarchal days of
old all stamped Elijah the Second
as Dowie called himself as a man
born once in a century
Dowie possessed the rare power of
converting his visions into realities
In that industrial Utopia which he
established there stands a great
monument to his memory For in
establishing the Zion Lace Industries
Dowie gave to this country a new
industry
As late as 1900 this beautiful prod
uct was considered a monopoly of the
historic lace centers of Europe
Today the plant is one of the largest
and most interesting textile industries
in America
A wonderful development has taken
place in this factory during the past
three years It has been thoroughly
reorganized Out of chaos has beer
made the most efficient plant of i
kind
The plant covers nearly five acres
It is 586 feet long and 284 feet -vide
two and three stories high now em
ploys about 700 people and during
the past three years has operated all
machines 18 hours daily except Satur
day when the factory is closed at 1
p m for a weekly half holiday
The rapid growth of the Zion Lace
Industrie has not equaled the re
markable increase of the demand The
product is constant oversold
The Zion Lace Industries is today
the life of the city of 5000 inhabitants
Many of its most intelligent wage
earners are toiling with the satisfac
tion of knowing they still have a
chance to get back in that way at
least a comfortable existence in re
turn for the fortunes they have lost
So even if the founders work may
be said to have been unfinished even
though he was crushed out of the
minds of the people a great reality
has resulted from his dreams
