Address till comiannications to THE STANDARD, Concord, N. C. Concord, N. C, Feb. 12, 1900. The Salisbury, postoffiee gets another clerk. Wish they'd put enough good railway clerks on the Southern so that mail could reach its destination. It does seem that as we are about to even have rural delivery people along the railroads might have their mail given them. The city of , Wilmington knows what negro domination is as no other people in the State do. Probably no city in the South has felt the scourgo more sen sibly than the Wilmington peo ple. So when they learned that Chairman Simmons neoded funds two citizens within a few hours raised $1,223 and sent it to him. That's eloquent telling that the amendment is the thing needed. To Hold a Thauk Offering Reception. . The Woman's Foreign Mission ary society, of the First Presby terian church will hold a thanks- offering reception on next Thursday afternoon at the resi dence of Mr? D B Morrison. To this reaeption both the Ladies' Benevolent society and the Young Ladies' Foreign -Missionary so ciety of this church are invited. Hours from 4 to 6 p. m. "If on our daily course our mind Be set to hallow all we find, New treasures still of count less price God will provide for sacrifice." The BXI Extea Special In It is said that this country pays millions of dollars every year to foreign ship owners for sea carriage, but this is cheaper than paying American ships the same rate and a bonus in the shape of a subsidy besides. Any business .that cannot be con ducted profitably without the as sistance of the government had best bo let alone. It would seem bad business methods to encourage a business that cannot, under any circumstances, be made profitable, aid. !TT?MTURE FACTORIES. M0KM0SS IX RALEIGH. 11' it, th'j iiaiiv blind-;. .. In a recent issue of Charity and Children contained the fol lowing oditoral on the above Subject: "We have again and again urged upan our people the im portance of establishing small factorl? for working up the timber we are not selling in foreign markets at little or no profit. High Point stands ready alv:ays to back our argu . niont with the cold cash. Twenty years it was a straggling rail road station; today it is a fine town of nearly five thousand people with twenty odd furnituro factories, all on a, solid basis. "vVo !-r;e been informed that every singlo one of these fac tories has a "gilt edge" credit riP' ; : l.r. ndsonie dividends to Hp o.' ;"v-. Here in Thomasvillo wol no a half dozen factories :.ufacture spokes and chairs, chiffoniers, ;r, sash, doors and 'c, They are all highly prosperous and the stock is not for sale. The beauty about those smaller industries is that thoy can be started on a capital that iu within easy reach of the ordinary North Carolina town. iYom two to five thousand dol lars is amply sufficient to begin on. Another thing is, that, like the savings bank, they benefit peopV of small means, and do not; appeal to men already rich. This is a matter of great mo ment. The third and best feat ure is one that we have often mentioned before, and that is that neither children nor women can be employed, except to do errands or clerical, work. Thus the head of the family takes the natural places as breacj-winners for the. household, and not as lordly loafers to explain the money question and drink cheap whiskey. We shall refer to this matter in detail later on, giving some facts and figures." We commend the above to the consideration of Concord. We know too little about the business to advise, but there seems no trouble for such factories to thrive in High Point and Greens boro. The collapse of Marsh & El liott in Charlotte some years ago seems to have been due to some fatal step that reversed a current of great prosperity. We'd like to see a furniture facto nfldnA to Concord's industries. 1 Young: Ladv Embraces the Faith ant Goes to Utah, two Mormon eiders are a work in Raleigh.
