Br VILLUffl H. BEBHABD. WILMINGTON, N. o. Tuesday morning. Nov. 17, 1896 OUR DAY IS comSo. We have frequently said and sin cerely believed and still say and cinr..riv believe that if the South had as much money in circulation and available for the development of its resources as could.be profitably used it would before many years be the wealthiest section of the United States. A.s much; as has been done ia industrial progress, and' it has been much, incomparably more wonld have been done if money could have been as easily obtained as it could be in the East, where money is concentrated and generally obtainable at low rates of interest. A great section,: containing one? third of the population of the coun try and with resources that no other section lays claims to, it is still de nndent UDork other sections for the money that is absolutely necessary to transact its ordinary business, , i : ntfrnrie entirelv out cavu .. 1"-- of the question. This is because under the present monetary system a few men control "the; vol ume ormoney and regulate it as there own Interests suggest, and un der this system it will always be so. Northern men have always controlled the National banks and always will, for they were the first to get control" of the United States bonds on which these banks are based and they will Always control them. . They and Eu ropean capitalists bought up all the bonds that were issued during the war and later, and they the $262,000,C00 .issued administration, so that has notbinz to look ' for source, and must way of paying a dustnal progress, we know of no a rnrv that could do more than the railroaCs. They have already done mnch, and there are many colonies of Western people now in the South, thousands of acres of land now under cultivation I "and many manufacturing plants In operation which would not ., have been H the railroads had not shown the interest they did and contributed as mate rially to that end as they have. They have it in their power to do much more by taking an active interest in the establishment of industries along their lines, in the country tributary to them, ana giving iuciu tu.F rates of transportation for their raw materials and for the manufactured products they send to market, which will enable them to compete with Northern competitors who get the benefit of cheap transportation. The manufacturers in any of our South ern towns ought to be able to ship their goods one way as cheaply as their competitors can another. We have known of Southern enterprises which were strangled because they couldn't. 1 MISU& KSNTIOff. bought up under this the South from that . i go on in ine oia Dremium on the bonds which may be . purchased to start new banks. ; ? - We can't have any State banks be cause the power that destroyed the State banks, to remove obstructions from the way of the National banks, will oppose with all its might every movement that looks to the estab lishment of State banks. ; These would break the monopoly of money now held by the banks of the North, which the free colnage'.of silveriwonld also have done, which they so stub bornly and successfully fought for the same reason. - But the South is not alone in this respect, for the West, especially the younger States, are in the same pre dicament, but the South can stand it better than they can because the South has more attractions for capi tal" and more -resources to draw ey from the Bast and from other portions of the world than the West has. The main, and practically the only dependence of the West is on its agricultural products. When these are in demand and prices are reasonably high that section pros pers; when prices are low it suffers. The limited supply of raw materials or their wide separation necessitat ing much transportation puts it an I insurmountable disadvantage as a general manufacturing section. Fortunately for the South it is not only an agricultural section equal to any, but it also abounds in all the materials necessary to make It the greatest manufacturing section in the country not In a few special ties, but in everything that enters into the channels of commerce. As an iron mining and manufacturing section its advantages have been so fully and frequently demonstrated that they are no longer question able, and the same may be said as to coal mining. Iron and coal, when found 'together, or sufficiently close to co operate with each other, . are sources of incalculable .possibili ties from an Industrial standpoint and of inestimable wealth when judiciously handled. They are tbe . great bases of scores of other indus tries: in fact, it micht be said that all of the manufacturing industries are dependent to a greater or less - extent upon one or the other. - j; This is pretty well known now, although no one yet has a fall con ception as to the extent of these re sources, for the, territory is vast and the explorations limited, but enongh ' is known to establish the fact that no portion of the earth of equal area ' presents an equal number of valuable materials, in as great abundance nor so conveniently, located for profit able use. " ' "" ' "" '.7' i ' .; ' , In this age of active business rivalry and close competition, it is only a question of time when these inducements will tell and attract cap ital which is seeking investment, but capital is cool, and calculating, and feels its way where it goes, and con sequently, while we may do much to get it to thinking, it will take its time and we can't rush It, ' Perhaps it is : well that we can't for in the long run a 6low, steady and permanent growth is better than booms, which over booming, or accident, or bad man agement, or a combination of cir cumstances may burst, "when the re- - action would leave us in a worse po sition than we were before, for it Is - - harder to restore the shattered confi- dence of a disappointed man than to secure the confidence of one who - had not tried. . - jr While the people of ; the South could by; -intelligent co-operation; V the effects of which have been shown in the establishment of numerous enterprises, do much to promote in- The Republican organs never tire of discoursing on the difference be tween wages in this and in other countries, which they attribute to the protective tariff, which by pro tecting the employer enables him to pay higher wages to the employed. It is a fact that wages not only for skilled, but for unskilled workmen, are higher in this than ia other coun tries, but this is not due to protec tion, because wages always were higher in this than in other countries, not only in the protected, tut in the unprotected industries, which receive no benefit whateyer from tariffs. The fact is that wages have been kept up In this country more by the organization of workmen than by any voluntary act or interest taiten in them by their employers, who as a rule get their work done as cheaply as possible. If it had not been for this organization "the proba bilities are that wages in this coun try would be very little higher, if any, than they now are in European countries. The process of keeping them up has beena costly one with the strikes and lockouts, of which there have been thousands, and which have cost the strikers millions of dollars in wages lost and the em ployers millions in time lost, but still the advantage on the. whole has been, rather with the " strikers. It may be noted' that the majority of these strikes and lockouts were in tne protected industries where the rela tions between the employer and em ployed should be the closest and the reciprocal benefits the greatest. In writing of the intimidation and coercion resorted to in the past elec tion by employers in the North, we incidentally referred to the intimida tion practiced by their own race upon negroes in the South who showed a disposition to vote the Democratic ticket. ; Sometimes this takes the shape- of threats of" per sonal, violence, "and more frequently of social proscription," -which : the negro, especially the young negro, dreads more than he does personal violence, for that practically makes him an outcast among his own peo ple. As an illustration of this we quote the f ollowing from the Raleigh News and Observer of Saturday: the mixture of pulverized material and cement, which compoise the Brice brick, is hardened by heat.

Atlanta Constitution, Dem. The Hon. Thos. "F. Bayard has evinced such a poor opinion of the masses of the American citizens, in his several talks with his English entertainers, that it would be a mat ter of neither surprise nor regret among Americans it, at the end of his ministerial term, he should trans fer his allegiance to the British crown. --Richmond State, Dem. . No patriot will stand in the way of returning prosperity, but the fact cannot be overlooked that in many cases where manufacturing es tablishments are being opened they are the ones which were closed down before election in order to give the employes the so-called object lessons. The same thing is true of , many of the concerns which announce ad vance in wages. The wages were cut with the announcement that they would be restored in case of Repub lican success. These are ' old tricks of the Republican campaigners. New York Journal, Dem. SPIRITS TURPENTINE, j SHE MADE HIM JUDGE TWINKLINGS. "Politics," said Uncle ;Ebeo, "makes strange bcdfollows.

He has been a consistent Democrat for many years..; H got on very well until the late election. . Since then he has had to bear much social ostracism from his own race because of his politics. He had employment to cut wood and do other work for negroes. Since the election they have refused to give him work and have made his life as uncomfortable as possible. The old man is a quiet citizen, conducts himself well, preaches the gospel when not otherwise engaged and has the confidence of all who know him. It is a shame that he should thus be os tracised and the bread denied him be cause of his position in politics." - Ordinarily; speaking, the impres sion would be that the respect these people have for their preachers would protect ' this old man from their wrath, but in this case the cul prit who dared to vote against the wishes of the bosses is subjected to the penalty of starvation and social ostracism by people nine-tenths of whom earn their living by working for people against whom they vote. - . A plant is being established in the city of San Francisco for the manu facture of brick by a new process, the invention of Prof. E. C. Brice, of Washington city. The bricks are made from pulverized stone or sand and clay, which is mixed with a pre pared cement, after which it is bar dened by fire, making a brick which it is claimed is superior in all re spects to the clay-brick, and ; much cheaper. ' They can be made in ten hours, whereas it requires from eight to thirty days to make and burn , the clay brick, . while the amount of fuel required to burn the Brice brick, " is mnch less, The resisting,,- power of the Brice ; brick is ; from 10,000 to 45,000 pounds, to the square Inch compared ; with from 400 to 4,000 of the clay brick, v The cost of these brick; It is said, will not be much over half the cost of the brick now nsed. ' This is simply an improve menton the process of making arti ficlal stone, which has been in opera tion for some vears, the difference being that the mixture ot sand and cement from' which the artificial stone is made is hardened by sub mergence in water, in water, wbije Appointments for Visitation by the Bishop of Bast Carolina. , November 18, Wednesday, William ston.

When the evening ar rived, he found the large hall in which he was expected to speak fill ed with bright, intelligent women, most of whom 'were young, He de? livered his 4eoture to attentive lis-, teners, and as be sat down one of the managers, a pretty, earnest look ing girl, whispered: "One thing more.

He k whitewashes walls and fences, cuts grass and paws wood. A year ago Jacob took a ytrapg fejlow named Tom as patne. Tom was quick, handy and obliging, and the business of the new firm in creased.

" 'Where's Tom?' I asked the old a. One of Um lUustxious names that adorn the pages of Tennessee history and biogra phy la that of John Catron, eight yean a judge of the supreme court of Tennessee and for 98 years an assooiate Justice of the United States supreme oourt. He was born la Wythe oounty, Va., In 1779. At an early age he emigrated to Kentuoky, and tbenoe to Tennessee, taking up his residence In Overton county. He served under General Jackson In the war of 1812, taking part in the battle of New Orleans. A friendship was begun between the two that was never broken. In 1815 he was admitted to the bar and began the practice of his profession In Overton oounty, In this state, but here moved to Nashville three years afterward, In 1818. Six years later he was elected a supreme judge by the legislature. In 1837, on Maroh 8, the day before the expiration of his second term in the presidential of fice, Andrew Jackson appointed Judge Catron an assooiate Justice of the supreme, court of the United States, which position he held with great credit to himself and to the satisfaction of the country and to bis associates on the behbh until the date, of bis death, which occurred on the 80th day of May, 1865, at Nashville, fiis ashes rest in Mount Olive cemetery, in that city. ' Judge Catron was not only a warm friend but also a partisan of Andrew Jackson, and, although a judge ot the su preme oourt of the state, ha took an active part In the acrimonious controversies In which Old Hickory became so frequent ly Involved daring his stormy political ca reer. It was owing to this fact ohlefly, no doubt, that be made many bitter enemies, who at the time made him the subject ot Intense hatred. He ably supported Jackson and his measures and was particularly conspicuous in opposing all movomenta looking to the elevation of Hugh Lawson White to the presidency, i , Judge Catron was not an educated man, but by diligent application be gained a wide knowledge of books and of things and became the repository of a great deal o valuable and practical learning- He was Intense by nature, and his judicial opinions were often marked by a vehe mence that sometimes provoked critlolsm. He was a man of very deolded convlotions, and he gave expression to them In a man ner that showed courage. John Hallum, In a volume published by the Southwestern Publishing company en titled "The Diary of an Old Lawyer" tells, on the authority of the Hon. John F. Dar by of St. Louis, a story of the part played by Judge Catron b wife in securing his ap pointment as an assooiate judge of the su preme oourt of the United States, and quote from It here: "One night, after the judge, had retired, his wife pioked up a newspajper and read the accoijnt of a vacancy on the supremo bench of the United States. In .less than ten minutes she had the cook and ' hostler In her room and gave orders for an early breakfast and for the carriage and horses to be ready at sunrise the next morning. She then arranged the wardrobes tor her self and the judge and retired withoul communicating her . plan to him. Next morning she aroused him at a much earli er hour than usual and with some diffi culty got him to the dining room. Quoth the submissive judge: 'Good wife, what does this mean? I will be drowsy all day. Yoq have broken into the sweetest hour oi sleop,' To which she replied: 'Nevei mind, judge. You say I do all things for the best. We will discuss details after the hurry is over. Hurry up;, we must be off.' 'Be off 1' he said. ' That cannot be. I have some law papers to read and write np to day, and you must excuse me.' 'No, my dear judge, the business is prgept ppd re quires you tog. And that settles it for the present "From the dining room his wife led him to the carriage. After they had ad vanced as far as the Kentucky line she handed him the paper containing the an nouncement of the vacancy on the supreme bench and told bin) that tnay wore on their way to Washington, and her purpose was to put him on the supreme bench ot the United States; that she kjiew Gener: al Jackson would appoint hjm if the va cancy was not filled befqre she could sofe him. Quoth the judga again: 'Wife, this Is the veriest nonsense of your life. I would not humiliate myself by asking foi the place for the city of Washington, and we bad better - turn around and go back home.' aha wife got just a little bit 'up on her ear' at this and snldr '?ou don't have tq ask for It. I am not taking you to Washington for that purpose. My husband is as well qualified for that place as any man In America, and if he does not get It I will know why. You are In my hands, judge. Your honor is mine. I will take care of It. Make yourself comfortable,' and the judge, as usual, subsided. She ob tained several relays of horses; They drove across the' Potomac Into Washington, and the carriage stood in front of the White House a sunrise. Se jumped; put )ike girl and left the judge sitting in the car riage, but she was refused admission by the usher at that early hour. Indignantly she brushed him aside and demanded to be conducted to General Jackson's presence. The general was an early riser and was sitting at his table with his gown and slippers on and a long stem cob pipe In his mouth. When Mrs. Catron was ushered lq by the frightened usher, the general was glad snd surprised to see her, and before she took her seat she asked If the vacancy on the supreme bench had been filled, and, when answered in the negative, said, 'I ask the appointment of Judge Catron,' And the old hero said, 'By the Eternal, he shall have It, and before the sunset he was appointed and confirmed." Whether this story be true or not certain it is that President Jackson never made a worthier appointment.

Although there is not the fuss made over it that there formerly was, more people have yielded to its fascinations during the last year than ever before. " It is doubt less true that photography is not the fad today that it once was. The kodak fiend ia not so commonly seen as waa the case a few rears ago, and of course the bi cycle must bear the burden of, the cam era's loss of popularity. Nevertheless there is something so fascinating about photography that it ia hardly probable that it will ever die out until some new and better way of reproducing the face of nature is discovered.

There is always some new process to try, some new experiment to make, and the real enthusiast never wearies of his camera. The' amateurs are largely responsible for the gft progress made in photography, and it is fact that until the amateur entered the field the professionals knew only the rudiments pf their art Tbe real camera. crank" is not satisfied to always fol low V Pe must experiment and seek to. produce new effects, and it is this possi bility of invention and discovery that constitutes the greatest, charm of -the TMistime.
