BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C Thursday Morning, Feb. 4, M892 A GEEAT UJDTJSTBY. There is one industry for which there is a fine opening in the South, to which there has been but little atten tion given, and yet it is one to which this section presents many adva n tages, and one which would grow to great proportions if it got a fair startJ We refer to the manufacture of paper. In the beginning it would be necessary to compete with an in dustry which is already firmly estab lished in the North, but this it has been necessary to do in all the man ufacturing industries established in the South; in cotton manufacturing, in iron making, and in others, in which it was once thought the South could not succeed in ; competition with the long established manufac tories on the other side of the line. The fallacy of this opinion has been demonstrated by cold facts, for the South has not only made head way, held the field and become a successful competitor, but in some lines of cotton goocls and of iron has driven her competitors to the wall. She is doing more of this every year, and is not only doing this but she is building more cotton mills and :ron millsthan any other section of the country. She has been enabled to do this simply because she presents advantages to these industries in the abundance and cheapness of the raw materials, water power, or fuel (when steam is used), genial climate, longer seasons for work, ect, which the less favored North cannot offer. The South presents all the induce ments to the paper manufacturing industry that she presented to the cotton manufacturing and iron man ufacturing industry, and it should succeed here for the same reasons that they have succeeded. The great bulk of the paper in or dinary use is , made out of old rags (cotton), straw and soft woods. Taere are millions, of pounds of old ' rags shipped from the South every year to Northern mills to be used for this purpose, which, if the in dustry were established here, would . find a market at home. It would also give a home market for all of the unsalable or damaged cotton, which it does not pay to ship. It would also utilize the cotton stalk which would then have a marketable value as well as the lint and seed, and would give a demand for the millions of acres of cotton wood - trees : and other soft woods - which now grow, to maturity and decay, profiting no one. On the other hand there would be a large and an. annually growing market in the South, for the paper manufactured here, providedjit were sold as cheaply as j Northern-made paper, which now mainly supplies the Southern demand, and there is no reason why it should not be, if suffi cient, capital were invested in the per in worta aroiina, w pu i K ir.rtls to enable them to work to the advantage that ample capital always gives. With such capital and the superior advantages : presented, to some of which we have reterrea above, Southern": mills , ought to be able to compete with Northern mills, as Southern cotton manufacturers and iron manrfacturers have clone and are doing in certain lines of their production. There are some paper mills in the South which do good work and may have made some money, but they have been at a disadvantage m com peting with' their stronger rivals of the North for the want of capital to carry on the business on an exten sive scale. In a recent issue of the New York Commercial Bulletin we. find an ex tract taken by its Washington cor respondent from an . address pre pared by the Secretafy of the Chi- 1 r,: a xFCi imu. ouu .vu before the National Board of Trade, which met in that city last week, . m '. . t I which is interesting as snowing tne rapid growthTof the, paper-making industry in this country and the co- Fossa! proportions it has attained, as revealed by the following figures: "Mr. Waggoner figures that the pro duction in 1850 was 70,000 tons, esti mated value $20,000,000; in 1860 it was 170.000 tons, valued at $30,000,000; in 1870. 320,000 tons, with a-value of $50, 000,000; in 1881 the product was 675.000 tons, value $75,000;000, and in 18tfl all reports point to a product of 1,500,000 tons," with a value of $175,000,000; the percentage of product increase being for each decade, respectively, 14, 59, 110 and 175 per cent., and of value 50, 60. 50 and 150 per cent. The pig iron product for 1850 was 564,000 tons, valued at $12, 500,000, and in 1890 9,600,000 tons, valued at $170,000,000, showing an in crease of product in 40 years of 1,600 per cent., and of value 1,250. the paper increase being 2,000, and the value 800 per cent; in the same time. "In addition to the production of -1,500,000 tons of paper, it is estimated that the census figures will- show a pro duction of fully 700,000 tons of mechan ical and chemical pulp in 1891, making a total product of 2,200,000 tons. The value of this product has been estimated as follows: Paper, $175,000,000; pulp. $31,000,000; a total of $206,000,000, an in crease in paper proper over 1S81 of 125 per cent., of pulp near ly. 500 per cent.; in value an increase on paper of 133 per cent, and on pulp of 500 per cent. Dur ing the year 1890, according to a late census report, the production of pig iron was 9,600,000 tons, with an estimated value of about $170,000,000, an increase of production of 225 per cent, and of value about 100 per cent. Of this product, of fine papers there was about 90,000 tons, or 6 per cent.; of book or news, 600,000 tons, or 40 per cent.; of wrapping of all kinds, 240.000 tons, or 6 per cent,; of straw board, 216,000 tons, or over 14 per cent.; of manila, 230,000 tons, or over 15 per cent; the remainder, nearly 9 per cent., is made up of blotting, building, sheathing, hanging, twine and miscella neous. ... . - - - ) The number of , mills in 1891 was a little over 1.100, of which 230 were pulp mills. The amount of capital invested in the paper industry in the United States has largely increased, owing to the use of much and costly machinery- It is believed, however, by those who have given the subject thought, that not less than $175,000,000 is invested in the paper and pulp mill plants: that the mills give employment to about 75,000 persons, to whom wages amounting to $35,000,000 are annually paid. Surely, in a great and growing in dustry like this, Southern capital might safely venture. mSOB, HENTI0BT. The more the plan of attacking the McKinley. tariff in sections," as agreed upon by the Ways and Means Committee, is -studied the more favorably it.is regarded, both from a practicaland a political standpoint. It is much easier to shout protection in a general way than to defend it in detail when the .reasons, facts and figures must- be presented to defend the imposition of a high protective tariff on specified articles. It is easier to get down to the marrow of the question when the discussion is restricted in this way than when it is spread over a multitude of, articles taken in bulk. For illustration let us take wool. The advocates of a high tariff, to justify their posi tion would be compelled to show" that under,, the high tariff the pro- duction of wool had increased and tnat the Dusiness was prospering, neither of which they could show; but the advocates of free wool could show the contrary, both by the testi mony of the woollen manufacturers and by the figures of the census and of the Department of Agriculture, which show that instead of increas ing under the high tariff the produc tion of wool has actually diminished to such an extent that it has almost ceased to be an, , industry in some, sections of the country where it formerly flourished. Viewing '' it from a practical standpoint there are some . members of Congress who r on general principles are protectionists, who would not vote for a general reduction of tariff, but who would vote for free wool be cause their constituents are in favor of - free .wool. So with some other raw materials, which manufacturers are interested in getting as cheaply as possible, and which the people are interested, in because it - means l uicapcr guuus w mem. ine attacic in sections is tne common sense, practical way of bringing the protec tionists up to the mark and ; making them defend their position with facts and figures, not with spread-eagle declamation about American industries. tr The enthusiastic reception given Mr. Cleveland on his arrival ; at At lanta Tuesday on - his return from Louisiana, is a pretty - strong indi cation of popular sentiment in Geor gia, and also in the . other Southern States., The demonstration, al though impromptu, as Mr. Cleve land's coming , was . not generally known until within, an hour of the arrival of the train, is significant, as Gov. Hill was also the recipient of a popular ovation on the occasion of his visit to that city .when the Grady monument was unveiled and this was construed by his friends as an Pvidftnre of his e-reat' Dooularitv in . . . ?, Georgia ana m tne aoutn. . it may now be said by Mr.Cleveland s friends lvt,V 't. It tint a r4 ; aArvf Irvn I " c""-"U3itta"v i"-vft"'" given to him Tuesday offsets the warm greeting given to vjov. run on the previous occasion. 1 here is no denying the fact that Gov. Hill stands well in the South and that; he has many warm friends among Southern Democrats, but it is also useless to deny the fact that there is not among all the men whose names have been mentioned in connection with the nomination for the Presi dency one whose presence or the mention of whose name evokes more cordial enthusiasm than . Grover Cleveland. Hon. Michael D. Harter, of Ohio, who was the mover for the call of the Democratic caucus of the House, to- consider the silver coinage question, will not push the call, in which he has acted wisely. In a matter of that kind, where there is a well defined difference of opinion within the party, it is always better to give full freedom of discussion rather than stifle it by the imperious action of the majority. If there be merit in a proposition discussion will show it. and will also show its weak points. The more the silver coinage ques tion is thought of and discussed the more general becomes the conviction that it would be sui cidal . for the Democratic party to assume sponsorship for it. From a political standpoint there is another good reason why the caucus Call might be indefinitely postponed, which is that the Senate Committee on Finance has decided to take up the silver question, and it is said, will re port adversely upon Senator Stew art's free coinage bill. This opens the ball in the Senate, and even the free coinage Democrats in the House can afford to wait to see how it pro gresses in the Senate before they force the issue in the House, if they feel disposed to force It. i CURRENT COMMENT. I Every part of the country that has been robbed by Pittsburg under the tariff taxation laws will be rejoiced to learn - thatshe has be come so pious as to fine a citizen who sold newspapers on Sunday. It would be a big thing for the tariff iniquity if there were no newspapers on any day. Louisville . Courier - Journal, Dem. We do not join in the cry from the South for the repeal of the law prohibiting ex-Confederates from holding commissions in the United States army. The demand should come from the North. . While the law exists - the couutry i will be de prived in emergencies ot the services of some of its best and bravest citi zens; but it is not their place to ask its repeal. They can, r with' dignity, remain silent until patriotism and common-sense shall return to the mind of the North. Columbia State, Dem. The practical question,. which confronts the average farmer; in f the South now is simply whether he shall I plant and cultivatea full cotton-crop this year, which will scarcely repay the cost of production, if that; or whether he shall try to raise the sup plies he will need for his farm and family next ; fall and winter, and which he certainly can raise more cheaply than he can buy them ( with cotton of his own production. This is a question each farmer can answer for himself--without regard to con ventions or anybody else and it ap pears to admit of but one safe an swer.

With the President's State making a grab tor $7o0,uou on an old - moss-grown war claim and Watch Dog Holman, of that btate, introducing a new pension bill to extract a few millions from the treasury, the prospects are that Indiana may have to be restrained. New York Morning Advertiser,. Dem" The pious New England Re publicans are holding meetings to de nounce lottery gambling in far Louisiana, .but they continue to capture the shekels of the rural Westerner and southerner in the fine game, of "Protection," and to store them away - by the thousand in their fat savings banks, with the clear conscience and bland smile of Ah Sin himself. In deciding the rights and wrongs ot some games, it appears a good deal depends -on whether you are on the winning or the losing side. Charleston News and Courier, Dem. The snap game in politics is often very expensive to those who en gage in it. Had not Governor Hill and his friends in New York undertaken to forestall Democratic sentiment by fixing the State Convention in February a most unusual period it is quite likely that their programme would have en countered no great degree ot resistance. But they nave now provoked a storm of opposition, and the probable outcome will be two rival conventions, with rival delegations before the National Conven tion in June. When the New York Democrats have a genuine . cause to quarrel they are not deterred from fight ing it out by appeals - for harmony. Phil. Record, D. PERSONAL.

LESS COTTON. Resolutions Passed by a Meeting of Planters, Merchants and Other Bus iness Men at Raleigh Monday. Whereas, The present depressed condition of agriculture in our midst is clearly traceable, in part, to the neglect on the part of our farmers to raise sufficient food supplies to make the farm self-sustammg, and Whereas, This condition of af fairs has been brought about in part by the over-production of cotton and consequently' the lowering of values until the presents market prices for cotton will not pay the cost of pro duction, and Whereas, It is clear to every man that a radical change in the farming system will better our con dition.- . ." " Therefore, we, the undersigned committee, consitmg of farmers, merchants and business men, do here by l.: Resolve, That we earnestly re commend and appeal to every far mer in Wake county, whether he be an AUianceman or non-Allianceman, tenant or landlord, to reduce the acreage ; in cotton at least w per cent., and to plant and raise as far as possible a sufficient quantity of home supplies to make the farm self-sustaining. 2. We ; commend and appeal to every s supply merchant : in Wake county to encourage in every possi ble way the carrying out of this plan, and so far as is consistent with their interest- to. refuse, if necessary, to make advances to parties who in tend to continue the present system of planting all cotton to the neglect of the . more important products of the farm. 3. We make this appeal to-the far mers, merchants and business men believing that they will readil ac cept the doctrine that "the interest of one is the interest of all. The far mer knows from his own experience th.at he cannot prosper depending on cotton and neglecting the more im portant crops. The merchant knows and realizes that he cannot ; prosper while having ; for his customers a community of farmers who depend upon, the West for the mules they plough, lor the hay , and corn they consume, ana in tact upon some other farm for almost everything needed, while our, own lands are so well suited for diversified farming. 4.
