A LAND OF PROMISE.
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

lumberer, Ifte raHTOad _tnilldei' jmi 1

hitherto have satisfied their wildest
' dreams. But the impossible has comei
to pass, and the West no longer beck- 1

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,

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

Southern manufacturers declare

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. ? Washington oPst.
