We publish below extracts from sn editorial that recently appeared in the Baltimore News which is "good food for thought and reflection. "The solidity of the growth of the South In the last decadfi_wa3 spleiT" dld-y proved by the fact that It Buffer ed little during the. panic which late ly engulfed the country. .It wm well nigh the unanimous testimony from that section that the South's chief cause of complaint was that it hAd to mark time and wait for the rest of the country to recover from the depres sion. The States are so elosely relat ed, business Interests are" so inter twined, that, as a matter of course, the paralysis North and West inter fered with the progress of the South, but its losses were comparatively light and its recuperation was strik ingly rapid. The time is approaching when the few farseeing men who predicted an era of prosperity for the country south of Mason and Dixon's line such as has rarely been witnessed hid fair to see their prophecies come true. For decades the tire of emigration has gone West and North, requiring all the Capital' ai\d all the energy of the North and East. to keep pace with it. The West, with its seemingly un limited capacity to accommodate set - -tiers? ? offered the homeseeker - the lumberer, Ifte raHTOad _tnilldei' jmi 1 tlien the trader opportunities which hitherto have satisfied their wildest ' dreams. But the impossible has comei to pass, and the West no longer beck- 1 great field for enterprise, .it is not | tor and prospector are looking else where. and the star they follow points South. Every year bears out the truth of. this statement, and the best authorities believe that the next ten years will witness strides in the in which will surprise jhe-most enthu siastic. On every side there is more than aYi anticipation of good times, there Is now the whir of wheels, the sound of the hammer, the roar of the furnace, and the .hp m of industry, which hpsipeak ,the busy and I he con ? tsn^ed mart of-tmde: ~ : ' (.KTTINt. | [ X I \>,SS STATES ^ _ VI I.LK'S KXAMl'I.K.

Wilming ton Star. ' J la one branch of Industry the coun try h facing a peculiar crisis. The situation Is certainly unique and will prove rather puzxllng to political economists. America is the great cot ton producing country of the world, and other countries -depend largely upon America for tfceir supply of this raw material. About one-fourth of our annual production has been faan ufactured here, aud three-fourths ex ported. The home consumption ha? Icrjrely increased during several years past, and the number and capacity of domestic cot to# mills have been a no table evidencejjf our prosperity. We have even talked of a time clow? at hand wherijpArnerlcS would be the great cotfwi manufacturing country of the world, as it Is the greatest pro ducer, of the raw material. Millions of dollars have beefv expended within the past year in the erection of new and the enlargement of old cotton factories. But now a situation has arisen whereby domestic cotton tni.is will have to close down, not for w?t | of an ample supply of raw materia^ Southern manufacturers declare that unless there is a heavy drop in the price or raw cotton, or a decided r.g? !n...th.e pr,<'* of cotton fabrics. =s^5$Qs^BBMiteUa=dfiifeiS6i?. -IPiiiii Tbey do not look for an ad vaficn ? of couim good*. and if there is a sufficient foreign de mand for the raw material at present prices, they can hardly expect a drop in the staple. The situation la pecul iar in that if foreign manufacturers can afford to pay_the present price fr^Tgnr 1(1 ",311.1 ?Mli American factories in the finished product. .It will necessitate a readjust ment of conditions here.

V their own doors, American manufac turers ought to und6fsell all other manufacturing countries. __ A year or two ago cotton planters wore gravely discussing the queaion of limiting the amount of production for a term of years in order to force a higher price for their product. And now Southern manufacturers, in the heart of the cotton belt. wlth~"5b.eap power and cheap labor, are debating whether or not to limit the output of thelr^factorle^. confining themselves _to manufacturing the, stock now on hand, and using little or none of the hlKh-nrleed raw material. So far as can he judged, from the present out look. the foreign demand for Timeri can raw cotton will continue and hold' the staple at the present prices foi1 some time to come. If thts be the case, ana our manufacturers cannot compete with them at those prices, the future looks rather gloomy for them. ?

Though not a member of any . church, he was a staunch believer and a good worker for the Master's service. Those who knew hlm_oQuld best appreciate his sunny disposition and gentle manner. His health began to fail about four months before his, death. Wblle lov ing hearts and willing hands were ever at his service, and, the attention of some Qf the most noted physicians in Eastern Carolina did all lhat could be done to restore him to nls former health, It was all In vain.
