Among the numerous resources of the South she has three unfailing sources of wealth, which, if she had no other, would eventually, make her a great and a rich section. They are cotton, wood and iron, all three of which the world must have, and none of which can be supplied by any other part of the world in the same quantity and as cheaply as the South can supply them. In no other section of the world are the three found in the same abundance and as available for the demands of commerce. The cotton-growing area of the world may be extended somewhat, and doubtless will be, but it will never be extended to keep pace with the demands of the increasing popu lation of the world, so that the South will continue to have, as she now has, a practical monopoly of the cotton trade. The demand for cotton will in crease in coming years not only in proportion to the increase of popu lation, but in proportion to the in crease of improved conditions, and the general betterment of the human family. The advance of civiliza tion and enlightenment revolu tionizes the domestic economy, and people wear more and better clothes. The civilized savage wears a shirt. The world is improving in the scale of enlightenment steadily, it may be slowly, and the sovereignty of man is becoming an accepted fact. There is no portion of this globe that we know anything about where the inhabitants are not better off now than they were in previous generations, and where there is not more of promise in the future for them. Where steam enters a new era dawns. When the locomotive whistles m new territory it be comes not only the agent of commerce, but also the evangelist of Christianity, civilization, and of the sovereignty of man. A thou sand men are now making the bed for a railroad in the heart of dark Africa, several thousand miles of railroad have been built in Japan, and several thousand more are un der construction. Even walled-in China is beginning to crawl out of her shell, and a railroad is being constructed there. This is the be ginning of a revolution, the dawn ing of a new era, which will be strewn with the wrecks of hoary humbugs, toppled from their pedes tals by aggressive modern thought and progress. It may be asked, what has all this to do with cotton ? A good deal. It is as we said the beginning of a revo lution. It means the speedier civiliza tion of Africa and the speedier es tablishment of modern methods in the aged empires of the east which for thousands of years fought innova tion as if it was a pestilence. It means an improvement in the condi tion of all those people. The African who now dresses himself in his own skin and a handful of grease will wear clothes. The modernized Japanese and Chinese will not be content with a fifty cent wardrobe, have in all the leading window-glass So in Central and South America, makers in the country, enabling and in other parts of the world steam them to completely control the pro is revolutionizing, destroying the duct and the prices, and to prevent old, inaugurating the new, and raising anything like successful competi the plane of manhood. As the con- tion. The project is to sell the pro- dition f those people improves they Will RPplr thpTTAwn rnmfrtrf mrvr 7 v :HI T w a. w& . -av will 4i ve better and dress better. it The world uses now-' 11,965,000 bales of cotton asr compared with 7,- 485,230 Tiales twelve years ago. The amount needed will largely "increase every "year until it is double, treble what it is now, and to the South it must look for its main supply. The South is practically mistress of the cotton trade and always will be. There is none to successfully dispute her supremacy there. How ever the area of cotton culture may be extended in other portions of the world, it cannot materially interfere with her, for although the la bor of some other sections of the world where cotton is grown may cost less than here, the.South ern planter with his intelligence, his knowledge of the plant, and the im proved machinery which he may command, is and always will be more than a match for competition from whatever country it may come. The cotton crop which now brings to the South $300,000,000 will double, treble, that amount, and this will come from the same territory in which the cotton is now grown. This is one of the great and growing industries which under no possible combination of circum stances can ever be wrested from Dixie. MINOR MENTION. Mr. Edmunds, representing the high moralityites of trie Republican party, who looked upon Mormonism as a great and a crying evil which should be exterminated, undertook to exterminate it by proscriptive legislation, disfranchising polyga mists and confiscating their church property, which was done. A Utah Commission was appointed to ferret out the guilty and see "the law en forced. In the last report of its operations it recommends further legislation. It says that the efforts to suppress polygamy are de nominated persecution, and those charged with ferreting out and prose cuting the guilty as "persecutors of the Saints," and "the Church," they say "seems to grow more united from day to day under these teach ings." This is just as might be ex pected, and as predicted by the op ponents of the force legislation when it was proposed. We are no apologists for polygamy, but we don't believe that proscriptive legis lation is the correct way to deal with it, for these people do regard this as persecution, and persecution never uestroyea any cnurcn. it may drive its members into seclusion, but the more they are driven the strong er their faith and the closer they will stand together. It was politics more than morals which inspired this legislation against the Mor mons, as is shown by the dis franchising feature. Outside of pol itics there was really no necessity for it, for it was only a question of time when Mormonism in Utah and the other territories would have been smothered by the increasing anti Mormon population, andin the natural course of events. But a majority of the Mormons voted the Democratic ticket and the Republicans wanted to make some more Republican States to secure some -more United States Senators, which will account for the milk in the cocoanut in this kind of legislation. A- A number of Philadelphia capital ists have organized a land improve ment company with a capital of $250,000 for the purpose of develop ing Cedartown, Ga., situated in Polk county, 80 miles northwest of Atlanta, and one hundred miles from Bir mingham, Ala. Polk county is said to be one of the best agricultural counties in Georgia, and to abound in a high grade of iron ores, which sells at $2 a ton more than other iron. There is about $2,000,000 in vested by iron mining companies and one large furnace has been in operation for some time, which ships largely of this iron which is in de mand on account of its superior quality. Within four years the pop- ulation of the town has increased from 800 to 3,500, which shows that there is a pretty healthy boom be hind it. The last trust formed is by the protected" manufacturers of win- ow glass, who, not satisfied with the high tariff which cuts off European competition, have combined to pre vent competition amongst them selves. The Pittsburg . Commercial Gazette, Republican, says there are now sixty-three firms committed to the project and that they will soon duct of ; these ' establishments al- f-fimiinrli r.n.' tr&YTr rxrhtrh will fiY I W a,., V m .v O J w w the price .and i control the market Having no European competition to cope with on account of the tariff, which practically excludes the Eu- ropean product,this is an easy matter. When an amendment was offerecTto the tariff bill putting upon the free list articles upon which trusts had been formed, the Republicans voted it down by an almost solid vote. . If this amendment had passed there would have been no window-glass trus. Filibuster come out on top in the House again Saturday, notwithstand ing the fact that the Speaker did someofiiis own peculiar counting and counted on a call for the yeas and nays only thirty-seven Demo crats when there were forty-eight present. It seems from the fact that the Democratic minority are still masters of the situation, that the absentees of the Reed gang have not yet responded to the urgent appeal to come to the rescue and pull the rest of the gang out of the soup wherein they are now immersed. STATE TOPICS. A writer in the Charlotte Chronicle comes out in a strong communica tion in favor of establishing schools, in this State where the art of cook ing may be taught. He is an emi nently level-headed gentleman, and no doubt Gen. T.. L. Clingman who once vehemently remarked that if "war had slain its thousands, the fry ing pan had slain its tens of thou sands" will agree with us. North Carolina is not without her A 1 cooks, and perhaps in the average of cooking she will compare favorably with most States, but there are not good cooks enough anywhere. There is entirely too little intelligence shown in preparing food for mortals, and all for the reason that cooking is considered a very ordinary, easy thing, when in fact it is not. Every one of our schools for the education of girls ought to have a cooking department connected with it, to which as much attention should be given as to other Some of our schools departments have, we think, adopted this feature. If all our housekeepers were mis- tresses ot tne stove tne servant giri r . i . ., . I problem would be a less perplexing one than it is. CURRENT COMMEN" In all parts of the State white men are deserting the Repub licans and joining the Democrats. Riclunoml Dispatch, Dem. Speaker Reed's next move to hold a quorum, the doors not be ing strong enough, will probably be to chain the Democratic members to their desks. Phil. Ledger Ind. Mr. Blaine now poses as the Eastern champion of Western in terests. There has always been something irresistibly fine and tak ing in Mr. Blaine's disinterestedness. Phil. Record, Dem. The rains of August and September have cut off the cotton crop in Georgia, and the bright promise of six weeks ago will fall short of fulfilment. Farming ex perts unite in saying this. Augusta Chronicle, Dem. Twenty-five years war for the Union ended. ago the Yet we are now advancing the war taxes on living necessities to carry on a war the warfare of the Republican monopolists on the labor and com merce of the country. N. Y. Star, Dem. WEATHER CROP BULLETIN For tha "Week Ending Saturday, Septem ber 13, 1800. The reports of correspondents of the Weekly Wpnflipr r mr till issued by the North Carolina Expe- riment Station and State Weather service, co-operating with the U. S. Signal Service, show that the week ending Saturday, September 20th, 1890, has been unfavorable for crops and . farm work of all kinds. The first four days of the week continued tQ be very damp with frequent rains, and the injury done to cotton is con siderable. Excessive warmth and moisture has caused cotton to rot or sprout in the bolls, while that which hatl alfeady opened has been stained and otherwise considerably damaged. i ne latter part of the week, Wednes day to Saturday, has been cooler and clear,. and altogether more fa vorable, permitting farmers to re sume picking where it had been in terrupted,. In many places tobacco is nearly all housed. In the western portion of the State a Ught frost in low places occurred on the 18th. At Fork Church, Davie county, a heavy a tlme e man leaned over and ask rain and hail storm on the 16th in- ed: "Didn't I see you in Livemonl jured crops to some extent. H. B. Battle, Ph.

Depew' deliv- ered an address at the New York State fair at Syracuse. He haa a large audience. Mjr. Depew spoke of the development ,of t he agricul tural resource of the Country by the railroads. - Every mile of new rail-' road brings into, cultivation one nun- lred thousand fresh acres. , .A half century ago there were $4,000,000 invested in agriculture; now there are -$11,000,000,000. . There were then one million farms; now there are be tween four andT five millions. With in the last thirty years the acreage, devoted to corn has increased from fourteen millions to seventy-eight millions, and the amount produced from five hundred million bushels to two thoucand million bushels. In the same period wheat has expanded its .area from eleven millions to thirty-eight millions, and the amount' produeed from one hundred millions to five hundred millions of bushels. The agents of the railroads induced immigration from abroad, and thir teen millions of people were brought to our shores- after the com mencement of railroad develop ment. Railway rates in the last twenty years have gone down over one hundred per cent., while the products of the farm have fallen about 30 per cent. Gambling in tood supplies and the restrictions by European governments upon the importation of our livestock and our pork, while our production of cereals and live stock goes on, have brought about a depression which American statesmen and farmers should reme dy. The farmers should organize. Mr. Depew closed by saying that in his judgment we are near the bot tom of the grade of agricultural de pression, and will soon begin to climb up the other side. The rush of the people to towns and cities is recruit ing the ranks of the consumers out of all proportion to those of the pro ducers. Within a brief period the farmers of the country will again find within our own borders and about our own homes a profitable market for all their products. Mr. Depew said, that he belongs to a farmers' club in Nw York which is derisively said to till the soil of Fifth avenue, but though they may be in the condition of Senator Evarts, who said to his guests at Windsor farm, "you may drink either milk or cham pagne, they cost me just the same," yet the experiments of the fancy farmer are adding at his cost valua ble contributions to aricultuaal fnce Mr, Wayback and Mr. Hay- seed, of the caricaturist and of the stage, are characters of the past. PECULIAR EVENTS IN MARS. Changes In Its Lakes and Canals Observed by European Astronomers. The New York Herald publishes the following communication from the eminent astronomer, M. Flam marion: "I have just received some new observations concerning the planet Mars made this summer at some of the principal observatories of our own planet. They teach us some very strange things. It seems that at certain seasons of the year the oceans of the planet Mars are di vided into two parts, just as though a gigantic bridge or bank .of sand imu ueen inrown across them from one shore to the other "For instance, there is among other seas in the planet Mars, one situated at the ninetieth degree of longitude east of the meridian zero. On account of its isolation, as well as of its superficial area, this sea resembles our Black sea. Hitherto it has always been observed as uni- form and nearly circular, but last juneM. bchiaparelh of the Milan observatory discovered that this sea was cut in two by a yellow band which divides it into unequal parts. "A lake, somewhat similar to our Lake Tschad, was also noticed to have been divided into two parts. At the same time an excellent, very minute observer in England dis covered that five immense canals were also divided into two parts by two straight lines, absolutely paral lel to each other, in the same man ner that a certain number of enig matic canals were noticed to have been divided some years ago. What ?n. theSe seas' lakes and canals that rlvlde theraselves up in this manner be? 9 ; .As inhabitants of tAis earth we have only our observatories and our terrestrial ideas in our minds. These are insufficient to divine what takes place in another world, but such dis coveries are none the less worthy of all our attention. When will Trail de geant, having a glass of a diameter of 1.05 metres, bring Mars still nearer to us? HUMORING A STRANGER. How He Played it on a Confiding Stock Broker. London City Press. A stock broker who was on his way to the city, observed that one of his fellow passengers in the 'bus was closely regarding him, and after in 1879 ?" r The broker wasn't in T.;vrr.i that year, but, thinking to humor the stranger, he replied in the affirm- ative Don't you remember handing a poor, shivering wretch a half crown one night outside the Royal hotel ?" "I do.'.' "Well, I'm the chap. I was hard up, out of work and about to commit suicide. That money made a new man of me. By one lucky spec and another I.ara now worth .5,000." : "Oh, glad to hear it." "And now I'want you to take a sovereign in place . of that .half crown; ; I cannot feel asy . until the debt is paid The broker protested add object ed butjfinaUy,;, just v to humor vthe man, he took . the jQ6- note offered him . and returned the 4: change. The stranger soon left the 'bus, and everything might: have .ended then I "and there if the broker, -on reaching I the office, hadn t ascertained that the "fiver" .was a counterfeit, and that he was 4 out of pocket.

POLITICAL POINTS. The McKinley bill abounds in scandalous and unjust' provisions, but none is quite so flagrantly impudent and dishonest as the sugar clause. Alia California, Dem. As a result of eighteen months at the helm, Dr. Harrison can point to universal agricultural distress, a money stringency and a hole in the Treasury mat came to nun overflowing.

This recent saying has the right ring and we accept its suggestion. We are the importers of HE-NO TEA. We propose increasing its sale in Wilmington. Not by praising it, but by giving you, free of all cost, enough HE-NO TEA to last a week. The proof of the pudding is in the eating." An old adage which suggests "another, "A word to the wise is suf ficient." . Send us a postal card with your ad dress, and, for a limited time, we will mail any one in Wilmington, free, a pack age of HE-NO.TEA,and an interesting book about tea. You risk a postal card. We risk your liking the tea so well that you will continue to use it. If you do not we make a loss. Thus we show our con fidence in the merits of HE-NO TEA. MARTIN GILLET & CO., Established iln.)
