Slxje PC0TUXU0 tar. BY WILUAfli 2. BBKHAED WUiMINbrTU.W. 1. C. Wkdhesuay jhojuting. Nov. 20. ihdOsteial TRAIHING- Yesterday we referred to one of the adressea made at the meeting of the Southern Cotton Spinners' As sociation at Atlanta. There was one feature of that address deliver ed by the President of the Associa tion, Dr. John H. McAden, of Charlotte, which is deserving of commendation and will meet with commendation even from those who differ from the Dr. on the questions of subsidies to ships, protection, &o. that was when here commended bet houses, better schooling &c. for the operatives of the mills. We. quote what he said on that subject: "The depression in textile manufac turing in the last twelve months has left us witout a profit and iu many instances our profit and loss account has been on the wrong aide of the ledger. : While this is true it has taught us many lessons of economy which will be of lasting benefit When business was active and profits were great we were extravagant. We, from necessity, have had to cut down our expenses, retrench in all departments, stop all leaks, but in this depression, we have never cut wages. We have carefully guarded , the in terest and comfort of our em ployes. In all candor I can make the assertion that in our department there is no conflict between labor and capital. I can congratulate you that harmony and good feeling prevails between the employes-and employers. We should leave nothing undone to make them feel an interest in the plant and to labor faithfully for the good of their employer. A liberal spirit and: kind treatment is the best investment we can make for the fu ture. We should build good tene ment houses, make their homes bright and comfortable. They will be happy and contented and will reward us by their faithful services. Adopt sani tary regulations and have them strict ly carried out. It promotes good health, 'cheerful disposition and hap py homes. In no department of labor is there so much care and at tention given to all these subjects as in cotton manufacturing. We should use our influence in aiding the establishment of textile schools in the Southern States, -supported and main tained by a- liberal appropriation on the part of the State government so as to command, the best talent We all recognize the value of educated labor and should -freely give this measure our fostering .care. We should en courage our employes to educate their children. In order to-further this, we should build school houses at our dif ferent plants, mafcrfiberal -appropriations to keep competent teachers em ployed six or nine months during the year; build -churches, libraries and reading rooms for our people; do all in our power to erect a high standard of morals and dignify labor. There are few if any better busi ness men in North Carolina than Or. McAden and there are few men who are less influenced by emotional sentiment, but here is a case where business and the spirit of well di rected benevolence meet. As a business man he realizes that there are, reciprocal interests between the employer and the employed and that the more intelligently and cheerfully the employer is Berved the better he is served,, and he realizes, too, that the more the em ployer identifies himself with the employed, the more interest he takes in them, the more they will interest themselves in his business and the more faithfully they will work, provided they are the right kind of people. They would have to be a hopelessly inferior kind if they would not appreciate and re ciprocate such kindly interest by their employers as the Doctor here recommends. We saw a statement a few days go that one of onr cotton manufac turing companies had adopted the plan of building nice houses for its employee, with lota reasonably large for garden, flowers, fruit trees, &c, and selling them, at cost to enrployes with families, giving them as long time as they wanted to pay for them, paying ; instalments as might be convenient. There was business in that, because the home spot identi fies the. owner with the company which he works for, and thexe will be less disposition to be restless or to roam. The employer thus ties the employed to him and the employed feels that he has more to work for and more to hind him to the place, and consequently he is better con tented, works more industriously and more cheerfully. . Villages built as Dr. McAden suggests, houses constrncted with a view to comfort and sanitation, pro vided with schools, libraries, churches and places of innocent recreation, might be made model communities because under the supervision and to the necessary extent control of the owners of the mill, who could in a -short while weed the community of any disrep table or otherwise objectionable persons. There never would be any strikes in - such a community nor any lock outs by employers. -There were two other notable addresses delivered substantially on the same line, one by Hoke Smith, of Atlanta,, the other by Richard EL Edmonds, editor of the Baltimore t Manufacturers', Record, -both splen . did pleas, for the . industrial training ihe jSonths young r men. Each .fwintedput the value ; and import ance of industrial training as a fac tor in industrial development, and successful achie rement; illustrating by examples in !, oxxr-pwn ; country and I abroad. Mr." Smiths ! said: and said truly, that the success Jof Hew England as a manufacturing! flection was thejresult of the atten tion given ' to industrial training which has given her an abundance of skilled labor, quickened the brain and stimulated inventive genius until these people have become world-famous for their cleverness in doing things, and their . adapta tion to doing almost anything in the constructive line. Technical train ing, he said, was the foundation of New England's industrial success and greatness and of her wealth. Mr. Edmonds, .too, dwelled forci bly on the importance of technical training, -the utilizing of what he called our "raw material" onr young men and converting that "raw meterial" into finished work men, thus making it manifold more serviceable and valuable, as the raw materials in the fibres, woods, and metals is multiplied in value by being skillfully converted into something useful. After speak ing off the errors of the past, and what a drawback the want of skilled labor has been to the South in her industrial endeavors, he made a re medial suggestion that is a capital one. He submitted his plan as fol lows: "There are in the South 668 cotton mills, a dozen or more great systems of railways and hundreds of industrial undertakings of various kinds, which, without trenching upon their capital or without diminishing aught of the dividends for their stockholders or in dividual owners, could '-provide the means for at least 1,000 scholarships, each matching in amount of annual coat and covering the same time as those founded by our Pittsburg phi lanthropist. I should like to see 1,000 founded at the beginning of the next four years, so that by 1906 we should have 4,000 Southern boys enjoying them. "Bach cotton mil), steel plant, iron mine, oil well, lumber mill or railroad now able should promise to contribute for for four years or less $135 a year for the necessary expenses oi at least one poor boy at a Southern ' tech nical school who shall show himself by examination to be capable of enjoy ing such an aid. The recipient of the scholarship shall bind himself "L To repay to the institution in which he shall be a student, by giving promissory notes for small amounts or otherwise, the full amount expended on his scholarship 'account, the pay ments to be made out, of his first earn ings after graduation, ; ' "2. "To seek employment on indus trial lines within thefiimita 'of . the South, certainly during the time in which he is meeting the promissory notes. "Each donor of a scholarship should promise to give, in selecting employes, either as managers of departments, in dustrial chemists, members of engi neering staffs, etc, preference to the holder of that scholarship' who may have qualified himself for such a posi tion. "Some of the donors of the scholar ships are naturally likely to prefer that they should be at the disposal of technical schools situated within the State where they themselves have their habitat This natural desire, how ever, should not prevent them from insisting that provision be made by the State for the strengthening of the teaching force or the betterment of equipment of the institution entrusted with the scholarship to an annual amount equal to the sum expended on account of the scholarship. "By this plan the State, the donors of the scholarships, the holders of them and the she schools where they are expended are linked together by ties of a lofty self-interest which can not fail to have a notable effect for good upon everybody immediately in terested and upon the whole South. "Through a process of natural selec tion we may expect one of our exist ing institutions to become the central force of this movement, an inspiration for others, and educating the authori ties in the lower grades of our public schools to give the necessary prepara tory training, if even at the sacrifice of useless conventionalities. He asked the question if the poor but bright young men of the South would accept help given in this way, and answered the question by say ing that he had written to the presi dents of nearly all the schools in the South where any - attention is given to industrial training, and that they all replied in the affirmative, citing the fact that they nearly all have some young men who were helping to pay their expenses by manual la bor in the institutions, showing the desire to learn and the willingness to work to learn. If this sugges tion and plan of Mr. Edmonds be carried out the near future will give us thousands of skilled and compe tent workers, who would themselves become the teachers of others. It is a hopeful sign for the South that so much interest is being ex hibited inthe subject of technical schools and in the industrial train ing of our young men and young; women, for they should not be over looked. FLAYOrO WITH THE TRUSTS, There is a good deal of specula tion as to how the Republican states men will tackle the . trust question, or whether they will tackle it at all In his Minneapolis speech President Roosevelt took a somewhat advanced position on that question, but he was not President then and only went so far as to say that it might become necessary to adopt some leg islation to restrain trusts of monopo listic tendencies, which took advan tage of their opportunity to put the screws on the consumers -of their their products. While apparently condemning that kind of combines it was really a non-committal speech and: left the remedies for future consideration. - In view of that speech there is more or less surmising as to what the President will say on that sub- ject in his message -to Concrresa "and what he will rnAommonI - Fearing that he may possibly follow up on thai line oi his Minneapolia speech, and possi bly go further by recommending remedial legislation, pressure has been brought to bear by friends of the trusts to get him either to pass over, that question altogether or to treat it in a non-committal, , -negative sort of way, df anc: pmmendations be made that they be of a mild, unimportant char acter, which while apparently mean ing something would practically Amount to ?nothing The5 intima tions that oomejfromy alleged inter .view andvutterncei by the Presi dent seem to point to this. . There is one thing on which the pnblio may be pretty well assured in advance and that is that how ever much talk there may be about regulating, restricting and control ling trusts there will be very little serious effort made in that direc tion, and that when this Congress adjourns the trusts will be about as firmly entrenched as ever and as much masters of the field they oc cupy. Although, there has been a good deal of anti-trust talk for several years the Republicans in Congress could never be induced to tackle that question,- and invariably chok ed off every move made by Demo crats to take it up. Taking the past as, an index of future action the trusts are not -alarmed. HARDS OFF. In replying to the address deliver ed by Governor Aycock at the Colored State Fair, at Raleigh, the speaker, a negro preacher and edi tor of Durham, referring to the professed interest in the negroes of the South by Republican partisans in the South, closed by asking them to look on but keep "hands off" and let the white people of the South and the negroes of the South settle for themselves the question of the relation of the races. He substan tially told these intermeddlers that the negroes of the South do not want their interference and the more interference by them the worse it would be for the South, and for the country and worse still for the negro. But with all this intermeddling and its consequent unrest and dis traction the negroes of the South have been making, progress, have been bettering their condition and becoming the owners of property, all from the savings of their labor and not a very highly priced kind of labor, either. As an illustration and at the same time a potent argument against the agitation that is calculated to widen the chasm between the races, W. E. Burghardt Dubois, a profes sor in the negro college at Atlanta in an article which appears in the New .York Independent tells of the progress made by the negroes of Georgia in the acquisition of prop erty and as a proof of it presents the following tables showing the assessed valuation of property owned by them in 1900 and 1901, and the number of acres of land owned by them in 1900 and 1901 and its valu ation: Assessed value of total negro property 1900 , .$14,118,720 Assessed value of total ne gro property, 1901 15,629,811 Acres of land owned by ne groes, 1900 1,075,073 Acres of land owned by ne groes, 1901 1,141135 Value of land owned by ne groes, 1900. 4,274,549 Value of land owned by ne 1901 4,656,048 They have added $1,500,000 to the value of their holdings in one year, have increased their acreage 66,062 acres, and added $381,593 to the value of their farming lands. In this connection it may be in cidentally remarked that Georgia is a rock-bottomed Democratic State, in which there has been comparatively little agitation of the race question and where the negro, although constituting a considera ble proportion of -the popu 1.1! iauon, ngures very little as a political .,, factor. . They have been attending to business and let ting the white men run the politics, the good results of which are visible in the figures presented by Prof. Dubois. The latest telepathy story comes from the plaini in Nebraska. Two young men. friends, from the East, were: employed oa ranches seventy miles apart. One of them wai .thrown from his horse and badly in jured. r The other had a -present! ment that something had happened to his friend, mounted his horse to ride to him, and fortunately took a road that led him by the spot where -his - friend had ' been thrown, and where he was found in an almost ex hausted condition. He had barely strength enough left to wave his hat to call the attention of his friend and rescuer.

It is not so much economically as it is socially and politically, that the South has suffered from the almost exclusive character of its agriculture. Cotton mills and iron furnaces mean more to the South in other directions than they do as sources of revenue. It is interesting, therefore, to learn from census bulletins just issued that Arkansas has $36,000,000 of capital in manufactures that em ploy over 26,000 persons, and that Louisiana has $113,000,000 of man ufactured capital and 42,000 wage earners. In this State in ten years the amount of capital invested in manufactures has increased 109 per cent. In Arkansas the value of the products has just doubled in ten years.

Itow to Keep Tbem Free From tlie Murks of Labor, Housework Is rather hard on the hands, but there are some precautions which, if taken, will add greatly to the comfort of the worker and the appear ance of the hands, says Maria Parloa in Ladies' Home Journal. Among the things which roughen and blacken the hands the most important are dust, soap, fruit, vegetables and neglect to properly dry the hands. Wash all veg- rtaMes before paring, when the hands ore stained by fruit or vegetables, be uure to remove the stains before the bauds come in contact with soap or an acid, such as )emon, vinegar qr soar milk; tlien wash in clear water. Whei using soap anq water for any purpose, be sure to rinse off all the soap before wiping the hands. Always wipe the hands perfectly ijry, Po" pot change soaps if you can avoid' it, and always use a good soap. When sweeping and dusting, wear loose fitting gloves. Have a pair of rubber gloves for use when it is necessary to have the hands in wa ter a great deaf. Grease spoils rubber, therefore the gloves must be washed perrecuy clean as soon as the work is finished. A little bran and milk or Vinegar will make the hands clean and smooth after dishwashing or any other work that roughens them. With a lit tle practice one can wash dishes as well and quickly with a dish mop as wnn a cloth ana the bands. There should be two 'mops, one for the table- ware and one .for the cooking dishes. For washing floors have a self wring ing mop. To soften .the hands use some sort of cream on them at, night and put them in loose gloves"fcepVfor this pur pose. , s ' '' - ; - WerMaK 84 Houi i Du. ) There's no rest for thrum tfroii lit tle workers-Dr. King' New Life Pills.
