The Horning Jftar. U WILLIATI II. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Friday Morning, March 14,1890. MAKING FORTUNES IN THE SOUTH. There are more fortunes being made in the South to-day, for the amount of money invested, by keen, sharp eved speculators and investors, than in any part of the American conti nent. These fortunes are made prin cipally in timber and mineral lands, both of which are as a rule bought at ridiculously low figures, simply for the reason that the owners of the properties sold know the value of a dollar, but do not know the value of the properties they sell. As an illus tration in point, we clip the follow ing from a letter in the Pittsburg Dispatch, written from Logan Court House, West Virginia, which we find in the Baltimore Sui, a paper which keeps a sharp eye on Southern pro gress and development. The writer says- "Within the past twelve months not less than $1,000,000 have been harvested by nervy and far-sighted investors in the timber and mineral lands of Logan, U ayne and Wyoming counties, and mil lions more of profits will be reaped with in the next two or three years. Two years ago, and in many cases within a much less time, lands ranking among the best in West Virginia, standing thick with magnificent timber and underlaid with splendid bituminous coal could be bought all through the "Big Sandy" country for from $2 to $-3 an acre. To dav these lands are held any where from $10 to 30, and the "tendency of prices'Ms constantly and rapidly upward. At least a score of companies and associations of capitalists, with available money ranging from a few thousand up to $100,000 or $300,000,. have been organized for the purpose of acquiring the title to large tracts of the wild lands of the counties named, and probably 600,000 acres of territory- are now held for investment, while other hundreds of thousands of acres have been sold and resold, netting large profits, t "Your correspondent has in mind one tract of land, underlaid with thirty feet of the very best coking coal, which was bought by a modest combination of gen tlemen having little money, but the ability to see a good thing, for $1,300. In less than a year they sold out for $1j,000 and the present owners have re fused $2o.OOO for the tract. Another company bought 4,000 acres for $3 an acre. They have sold the timber alone for enough to pay for the land and leave them $30,000 cash, and they have the minerals and the land itself left. Still another combination purchased 7,000 acres for $10 an acre. They have re fused $4 a tree for 14,000 poplar trees, have at least $50,000 of other timber, and 5.000 acres of their land, carrying thirtyone feet of coking coal, one solid vein being thirteen feet thick. Their investment of $70,000 will net them $500,000 as sure as the next four years roll around. The original owners of the property seem to have no conception whatever of the value of their property. For a few hundred dollars in cash they readly part with large tracts of land standing thick with timber, and rich in coal, iron ore and other minerals." Some persons reading this might conclude that the writer had given undue license to his imagination and taken undue liberties with figures, but we have seen enough right here in our own State to satisfy us that while there may possibly be a lit tle exaggeration in some of his statements they are substantially true. We have seen as finely tim bered land as there is on the conti nent sold for less per acre than one tree of the hundreds that grew upon an acre, when felled and sawed into lumber, would command. Thou sands of acres have been thus bought by men who intended to strip off the timber, or by others who intended to hold for future spec ulation, the sellers receiving an insig nificant sum, which, if held on to, would in time have brought them ten times the amount they received or have made a valuable inheritance for their children. This thing is going on to-day and the lumber seeker is abroad spying out the land and put ting one dollar in where he knows he will get a hundred back. They watch the construction of railroads, and the railroads in prospect with reasonable probability of being built in the near future, and then they go on their prospecting tours and quietly select the properties which strike their fancy and buy at their own figures. And so with the iron properties and other minerals, some of which can be bought to-day for a less price per acre than they can per yard ten years from now, because the rail roads are pointing into them, which will give them a value in compari son with which the price set upon them now is as nothing. We know the country of which we speak, we have been watching its progress and development for twenty-five years, we know something of its resources and of its possibilities, and we feel as confident of what we are here writing as we do that the Cape Fear river will continue to flow into the ocean. We do not believe in the dog in the manger policy, but we do not like to see our people throw away treasures for little or nothing, nor barter for a song what may become a source of generous income to them,- or a rich legacy to their children. MINOR MENTION. Senator George, of Mississippi, who favors the Blair bill, said in his speech in advocacy of it, Wednes day, that it was a "generous offer of the North to the South." It would puzzle Mr. George to point out one Northern State which had made this "generous offer" to the South, and then, if he could, it would puzzle him still more to point out what par ticular right the Northern States have to put their hands into the common treasury and take out 77, 000,000, to be "generously" given to anybody. We fail to see where the generosity comes in or where the special right to be generous in this ease comes in. The money in the treasury does not belong to the North ern States. It belongs to all the States and is held in trust to be used for the purposes for which it was collected. If this be a piece of generosity, as Mr. George says, on the part of the Northern States, than the South in accepting it would be placing herself under an obligation to the Northern States for a donation, and that dona tion, too, coming out of money to which she had just as much claim as the "generous" donors. Mr. George was putting on the soft soder en tirely too thick. We don't believe in putting the South in the position of holding out her hands and receiv ing bounty from those who have no more claim on the fund from which the bounty comes than she has, and humbly thanking them for it. Senator Blair should rise to a question of privilege. It was unsen atorial, indecorous, cruel and mon strous for Mr. Plumb, the Senator from the riotous, breezy State of Kansas, to call him a sphinx. A sphinx is a monster. Senator Blair is not a monster, he is simply a crank, a well-rreaning crank, whose chief fault is, as the St. Louis Globe Democrat, a Republican organ, says, that he "winds up his mouth, starts it running, and goes off and leaves it." A sphinx don't do that, but on the contrary has achieved its world wide reputation by the persistency with which it buttons its lips and re fuses to let its mouth run, being in this respect the very antithesis of the gentleman from New Hamp shire. He should insist, as his col league Chandler did, on having that sphinx phraseology eliminated. Pos terity should not know him as the Senatorial sphinx, but as the great national crank. There is very little prospect of tariff reform by this Congress. There may and probably will be a revision which will leave the question practi cally where it is, if it does not raise the tariff on many things instead of lowering it. While the people have been demanding lower duties the po litical monopolists in many lines have been demanding that no reduction be made or that the duties be in creased. The "statesmen" will try to humbug the people by a pretence of reform while they will keep in good feather with the monopolists to whom they are under obligations, and to whom they look for "contri butions" in the future by pursuing a course of "masterly inactivity." It is a vain hope to look for tariff re form from a party which is run by cliques, combines, monopolists and boodlers. Some time ago Mr. Blaine put in a broad claim for exclusive jurisdic tion over Behring Sea, and his party organs, generally speaking, pro nounced it a grand and a bold declaration. But it seems that Mr. Blaine has taken a second thought and has come to the conclusion that he was somewhat too brash, and wisely concludes that this question can be best and most satisfactorily settled by international agreement. Mr. Blaine is not near so much of a "tail twister" as he was when per forming on the stump. STATE TOPICS. Durham is moving in earnest in the matter of securing the location of both Trinity College and of the Baptist Female College. A big mass meeting was held Tuesday night to take into consideration steps by which the former might be secured, which was addressed by President Crowell, of Trinity College, and others. Everybody was enthusias tically in favor of Durham having the College, and as a proof of it, which was the most significant ac tion taken, the Globe says that a sub scription list passed around footed up the amount of $107,172 sub scribed. This looks very much like business. Weldon is reported to be getting on a boom as a result of the work now in progress on the canal there. With such a water power as that Weldon should be a great manufac turing point, for which it has every advantage, with inexhaustible sup plies all around it, fine transportation facilities, a good productive country, where people can live cheaply and well. It lacks none of the advan tages to make it some day a great manufacturing centre. CURRENT COMMENT. -'What to do with the sur plus!" will soon be changed to "What to do to get another surplus!" Wash. Star, Ind. Those investigations are do ing a great deal to kill the executive session nonsense of the United States Senate, and the sooner they do it the better. Bait. American, Rep. Amos B. Carter, a Pennsyl- vanian, is having a headstone made for the grave of his wife, and upon it is the following inscription: "Some have children and some have none here lies the mother of twenty-one." He might have added: "Although she's dead and gone to rest, through all her life she did her best." Savan nah News, Dem. ' A great deal has been said by the Republican newspapers during the past week about "the first year of President Harrison's administra tion." The most notable features of the reviews is that they are mainly devoted to praise of Secretary Blaine and Speaker Reed, and leave the reader under the impression that Mr. Harrison must have been sick most of the time as perhaps he was. Charleston News and Courier, Dem. A KENTUCKY FEUD. Failure to Respoctthe Old Saying, "Never Kick a Sleeping Dog.' . "There is an old saying remarked Collector D. W. McClung to a Cin cinnati Commercial Gazette man, "which is to this effect: 'Never kick a sleeping dog.' Now, that reminds me of a story once told by a Ken tucky friend of mine, the circum stances in connection with which led to the origin of a feud between two back-country families, the relics of which still survive, although the his tory dates back fully thirty years. A stalwart young farmer was engaged to be married to the daughter of a well-to-do neighbor living about five miles away. Thetourse of true love ran smoothly among all parties, the only objector being the family dog of the house of the bride. He did not hesitate to show his disapproval of the proceedings by snarling at the young suitor upon each and every visit. Well, one day the young man got lonesome, so he mounted on the hnrricane deck of his horse and rode out to see his girl. The house in which she lived was one of the old fashioned, double hewed-log dwel lings, built one room deep and hav ing a front and back door exactly opposite. Both were open, as it was a drowsy sort of day in the middle of summer. "The old man was seated in a chair comfortably tilted back against the jamb of the door, so that the light fell over his shoulder upon his newspaper. In the middle of the room stood the table, laid for din ner. In the middle of the front yard, and right across the path, the old house dog lay stretched out in the full enjoyment of a nap. Our hero rode up to the gate, dismounted, tied his horse, and entered. As he advanced he noticed the object of his aversion, and determined to give him a taste of his boot. "The results of the assaults did not enter into his mind. Reaching the recumbent form of the enemy he dealt out a kick with his heavy cow hide boot that resounded in the house. The dog leaped to his feet, took one dazed look at the awful boot, which was again ready, turned tail and disappeared in . the house like a shot. He flew past the old man; right under the table he went, and here met disaster. The table cloth was unduly long, and on the side leading to the back door, for which the dog was making with race-horse speed, there was a hole. "The dog did not stop to measure it, but it fitted around his neck with the precision of a dress collar, and the result was that he took the cloth with him, while all the dishes settled with a heart-rending crash upon the floor. The visitor heard the crash, and turning, fled for the gate and his horse. Cutting the strap he vaulted to his seat and gave the animal the rein and his spurs. Away he flew down the road. Away flew the dog across the fields back of -the house, with the tablecloth waving defiantly in the wind. "The old man had risen to his feet with electric suddenness when he saw the destruction, and turned to note the cause. He saw the fleeing lover, and reaching for his ready rifle sent a bullet whizzing after him without effect. The young man rode to the house of a mutual friend, quite two miles away, before he drew rein, and there narrated the circumstance. "The listener laughed immoder ately, despite the serious nature of the episode and its possible sequel, and then explained. Said he : 'That dog beat you here about five min utes, and is now under the house with the tablecloth. He won't come out, either.' Well, the upshot of it all was that the match was broken off. Both people married eight or ten years later into other families. The difference was never reconciled, and it was only by the exercise of constant wafchfulness on the part of mutual friends that bloodshed was prevented on numerous - occasions. Such was the beginning of one Ken tucky feud, and all because the old proverb was despised." WASHINGTON ON ETIQUETTE. The Quaint Book He Wrote "When Only Thirteen Years Old. "Gat A," in Cincinnati Enquirer. Dr. Toner handed over to me a blue-covered pamphlet of thirty-four pages with his own notes. The title was "Washington's Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation." Said I: "If Washington at the age of 13 was writing a book on etiquette he was surely preparing the way for his subsequent selection and eleva tion to dignities. Was he not rather precocious for this kind of work, pre cocious for Washington." "There will be persons," said Dr. Toner, "to argue that Washington never wrote this book, but I am ready to contend with any of them that he did write it.' "Possibly, doctor, Washington, on ly copied some book already extant upon that subject as a guide to his habits?" "Nevertheless," said Dr. Toner, "I think that he wrote it. The whole book is in his hand-writing, and the date is 1745, whereas he was born in 1732." After leaving Dr. Toner I looked over Washington's rules, and some of them seemed to be funny, as for example: "When in Company, put not your Hands to any Part of the Body not usually Discovered." "In the Presence of Others sing not to yourself with a humming Noise, nor Drum with your Fingers or Feet." "If You Cough, Sneeze, Sigh or Yawn, do it not Loud, but Privately. Go not out of your Chamber half Drest." "At Play manners to Commer." and at Fire it's JGood give Place to thelast "Spit not in the Fire, nor Stoop low before it; neither Put your Hands into the Flames to warm them, nor Set your Feet upon the Fire, especially if there be meat be fore it." "Shift not yourself in the Sight of others, nor Gnaw your nails." "Shake not the head, Feet or Legs, rowl not the Eye, lift not one eye brow higher than the other, wry not the mouth and bedew no man's face with your Spittle by appr " It would appear that the leaf in the State Department original is here torxi off. "Kill no Vermin as Fleas, lice ticks, &c, in the Sight of Others, if you See any filth or thick Spittle put your foot Dexterously upon it, if it be upon the Clothes of your Com panions, put it off privately, and if it be upon your own Clothes return Thanks to him who puts it off." Mark Twain Not a Ladies' Man. On one occasion says the Boston Transcript, Clemens was standing against a lamp post and holding a cigar box under his arm. Mrs. Capt. Edward Poole, a very beautiful woman, and as bright and witty as beautiful, came along and stopped and held out her hand, saying: "Why, Mark, where are you going in such a hurry?" 'Tm m-o-o-v ing," drawled Mark, at the same time opening the cigar box, disclosing a pair of blue socks, a pipe, and two paper collars. He had never cared for the ladies, was, in fact, a fish out of water when he happened to be near them. While employed on the daily Alia, having secured employment there after leav ing the Call, he called at a dress maker's establishment and for ten minutes addressed a wax figure of a lady before discovering his mistake. 1 PERSONAL. Charles Floquet, president of the French Chamber of Deputies, is 62 years of age, stout, short and near sighted. It is reported that Dom Pedro has accepted the offer of the Emperor Francis Joseph to spend the summer at the imperial castle of Hitzendrof. Benzon, the "Jubilee Plunger," w ho is now in prison for forgery, is not penniless. He receives the interest on $250,000, though he cannot touch the principal. Sir Spencer Ponsonby Fane is to become Black Rod to Queen Victo ria, at a salary of $10,000 and a fine house. He will have nothing to do but draw his pay. Julia Marlowe, who has been playing "Rosalind" so acceptably this season, is only 22 years old. She pos sesses a sweet, girlish freshness, and a gentle, ten der grace. Ralp Disraeli, a brother of Lord Beaconsfield, has retired, at the age of 30, after fifty years of public service, from the office of deputy clerk of the parliaments, to which he was appointed by Lord Beaconsfield. Prince Albert of Monaco is said to intend to devote the $150,000 per year that he gets from the gamblers to the completion of the cathedral and other public improvements. He is wealthy himself and has an enormous rich wife. Janauschek has grown visibly older within a few years. Her hair is now white and her cheeks furrowed. Her acting has been compared to the scattered fragments of a broken arch that once rose majestically for the glonnca tion of art. POLITICAL POINTS. The Republicans in Congress may nullify the people's will by unseat ing Democrats who have been legally elected, but the people will have their innings in November, and then Auto crat Reed and his fellow conspirators will discover that there is a power be fore which they must bow. Amsterdam (A Y.) Sentinel, Dem. Harrison has a rocky road ahead of him. If he appoints white Re publicans to Southern offices, the blacks threaten to cast their fortunes with the Democrats, and if he appoints blacks to office, the white Republicans turn and rend him. He might try the expedient of restoring harmony by appointing a lew Democrats. Houston Post, JJem. In thirty-nine rural counties of New York, from which the returns of the spring election are in, the Republi cans have 441 Supervisors and the Dem crats 424. Last year the Republicans had 522 and the Democrats 345 buper visors in the same counties. These are straws showing which way the wind is blowing over the rural districts of the Empire State. The late Samuel J. Til den used to take great interest in the spring elections as prognostics of the drift of political sentiment. Phil. Re cord, Dem. Commercial Travellers Are noted for their enterprise and "hustle" and for their readiness in picking out "good things." A new article of merit receives recognition by them more quickly than by any other class. They all unite in saying that Hasson's Syrup of Tar is the best Cough Medicine in the market. For sale by R.
