in getting to the House in lime to
call up the Wjnston Public building
bid before it was reterred to the

believed here that Mr. Bankhead. the

Committee is opposed to the biil, but
it is known that the Speaker is in fa

bill appropriating $150,000 tor the
Winston Pub ic liuilding through the

After thanking the noard f-r. its
courtesy in exVer tling hi:n an invitai
tion to address it, hC'said ti at while
his shoulders were broad enough to
carry'tlia weight of his responsibili
ties the' were not brnad enough to
cause apprehension on the part of the
Lowell boa'd of trade of the people
of New England that he could .take
the Boott corporation on nc should

and carry them South bodily, and he
assure! hs hearers that he voiced

The speaker then
explaitied
tlie
nature of the orgatiiz tion, which he
sty lad an "industrial congress."
This congrts is composed of dele
gates appointed by the Governor of
all southern State's, the apportion-,
meat bci ig one from each Congres
Htonal districtand five at large irom
State. The congress is aUu -composed
of mayors,. c' ambers of -commerce
and boards of j trade, and it
meets biennially for discussion. An
execMiiive"'Crtui!ttee consisting of
the viCe presidents of the organiza
tion is authorized to conduct its af
fairs during the interim.
Mr. Patrick said he represented
the whole South ani jwa? not. author
ized to favor any section. He was j
prepared to state the peculiar ad-1
vantages of the a, ious sections but ;
interested parties would have, t'. form j
their own opinions. J He thought tne
New England mill owners and the
residents of New England as a whole
would gain by the establishment of
brauch mills in the South, as tie
home business is not to be curtailed,
i
merely the character of trie goods
manufactured- being
the.' owners invest in
altered,- while
tt:e South and
h ive their su p!us .profits to spend
in the North in othsr c'lannels.
lie thiight the qiestiou of to-day
is "Can the mills of the North com
pee wi.h the cheap fuel and lon
hours of work in the South, in the
manufacture of the' cheaper .rade3 of
woven good? Yet there is a ques
tion, said he. that isjof gre ter sig
nificance than this a:i-l th:.t is,
i
can the manufacturers of the North
hope to compete not'onby aafnst the
South in coarse good3, but-, can it
compete ith the growing industries
of semi civihzed nation?
Southern people live cheaper, wear
thinuer clothing on iscoijunt f the
climate, their hruses arc for the same
reason cheaper, and ihe riquirements
forborne IuxurifA are not so exacting
The jseople are a contented lot, and
are'not given to strikes or boycotts:
He then told of ttu water power.
f certain sections,
owners of tlie aara?,
and said that
not appreciating
its value, wouid not only give free
use of the same butiwculd give land I
free also to m lis th.it wish to tstab-l

lish plants . j j
He naid coal could be secured at
frcjm $1 75 to $2 per ton. delivered,
which together with j the inducement
offee bind and free water-' power,
must neces?aii!v be 'a great incentive
considering the jroximity, of the raw
material for cotton manufacture. He
felt that it was bejter to maitufacture
the coarser grades of goods ?n the
Sooth and ea-n a profit for owners of
t
mills than to permit the cotton man
ufacturing industry to go to ..other
