' :f WILMINGTON, N. C.' FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 12,-1897. COMING SOUTH. From time to time the papers report a movement of northern colonies Into different southern states In the south. Most of them have been favored In this way more or less. Georgia, iAla, bama,Misslssippl and Texas have been particularly favored by farmers In the north coming In to cast their destinies with the people, North Carolina sec- '. ond to none in natural advantages and invitng opportunities, has had some In flux, but the outgo of natives is too large for very much increase in popu lation. The south. Is a very favorable land for people with means who live In the bleak, cold north. Here the farmers may work more than eleven months in the year out of doors. The exodus from the frigid northwest has not been so large as one might reason ably expect. If tens of thousands - - would come this year they, could find desirable lands, very cheap, and not distant from railroads. But the advan tages are not limited to profitable farm ing. There are good schools for chil dren, churches close at hand, and a delightful climate. There are many opportunities to engage in business of some kinds, and new ways may be opened. . Thege have been discouraging things said of the south by hostile northern prints, and no little misrepresentation is made by designing writers A visit in person to the south is quite apt to dispel prejudice and show that the 'liars are not to be trusted. There will be a more general movement after awhile. The real advantages offered in : the south will be better jinderstood. Northern prejudice will more and; more die out, and by A. D. 1910, we may an ticipate a great influx of northern men, and among them hundreds of capital ists seeking cotton milling, mining.etc. The unmistakable progress in the south as .to cotton manufacturing is $o well known in the north now, and spe- clally in New. England, that it Is not improbable that many plants will be Y started in the isouth by 1900 and by men who are vnow manufacturing in the Middle and New England states. It i pays to bring mills to the cotton. , f In -the Baltimore monthly called the "Southern States"'5 a Michigan farmer writes as follows: "Every farmer in my neighborhood i wishes to sell and get away. Southern vegetables and fruits have ruined our market for these products. We cannot ; cmopete with a region that can grow two crops of potatoes) in one year 'on the same land and in-which the farmer can live one-hird cheaper than he can in Michigan." ... The New England writers, newspa pers and manufacturers have resisted pertinacious! and" vigorously the Idea :that the south had any real advantage over New England in cotton milling, i Among the wise men.1 who fought the idea was Edward Atkinson.an eccentric dabbler into political science and a the orizer on paper. He spurned theopln- . ion and showed his breadth of vision and soundness of information.. Other men more practical, more discerning have found out better, and know that the south does have real and Important advantages over that popular and very rich section as to the great manufac turing industry. Still the 'concession is not 'general. Ephraim is still wedded to his Idol, and blinded ; newspapers "up there" publish statements as to the south that are as absurd as .ignorant. ; The Boston Transcript is one of these ignoramuses and insists that the south lacks skilled labor and management, and, therefore, will never be able to compete with the wide-awake, expe rienced, energetic New England. That is our language in interpretation1 of Its contention, so fatuous and futile. It ; even asserts destitution down this way of capacity to organize and develop and manage. The hundreds of excel lently operated mills In North Caroli na arid other southern states, show the folly of such an assertion, and in fact exhibit as consummate masteryof detail and genius for management as New England, could exhibit. Referring to this bald ,an'd unsustained claim for New England's great supply of manag ing talent and the south's great desti tution, the Charleston News and Cou rier a day or so since said this: . "There is a statement in our 2ie-wier-ry correspondence today which will make our Boston contemporary dizzy. - In Newberry the other day a native of ; that town was applied to to take theplace ; of a weave room boss made vacant by the resignation iof a skilled northern ' worker. D. A. Tompkins, of Charlotte, a native of this state, knows as much about the science and practice" of cot ton -manufacturing as the sharpest Yankee in New England. x James L, Orr. a native, is the successful manager of the Piedmont mills. Ellison Bmytn, a native, is managing with great profit the Pelzer mills. . Grange Coffin, a na tive. Is making, money at Enoree. - ' W, A. Courtenayi a native, has one of the finest and best mills in the south at Newry. W. B. Smith Whaley, a native, is making a great success of his mills at Columbia," We venture to say that there are now a Score of men in North Carolina who could easily take control of New Eng land's best plants and work them as safely and profitably as the ' present managers. They are in all the southern states. It will not do for Yankee shrewdness and energy to count for su premacy upon southern ignorance. In capacity and inertness. If that Is all the superiority they have and boast of they will be sure "to get left." HOME FOLKS. The Sanford Express Is one of - the most Interesting of our weekly , ex changes, and they are numerous. . We doubt much if North Carolina is sufficiently populated to enable railroads ta Icarry with profit "passengers1 at' 1 cents a mile. In thickly populated sec tiohs or; states this' may be done but we Incline to the opinion It Is clipping too, low for North Carolina. It will be safer to put it riot less than 2 cents, we suppose. Will the , legislature, do-any thing to increase the number of tlie state guard, to put It in better shape, to make It more comfortable and jto show appre ciation ' of voluntary service?

It to not because of &"paucity of able and -well equipped men. Any one who is not Ignorant of North -Carolina statesmen will for a nHomewt doubt that he has had many eons who could have filled any place In the cabinet, he had three sons Who filled the great office of president. "She lias had senator rrom mamy states had six or seven at one time in the senate ana Benton, a man of first rank was one of them. The late HbnAbram W. Venr able, a very gifted son of Virginia, edu cated at three colleges, of rare-attain ments, who spent the largest part or his life In Granville county, to an arti cle he published In "Our Living and Our Dead", tn 1875, wrote that when he came to he Granville bar In 1825, the supreme court of Jthe "United States could have been taken from it, so able and so mtmerous were the great law yers attending. The article is well worth reading. We supplemented tt with an editorial note, giving the bar about 1849, when It was equal Jto any in the south, we may not doubt. . . AN INSTRUCTIVE COMMUNICA TION TO-DAY. - We publish an interesting communi cation today from one well Informed as to what he writes. . He Imparts some instructive information, relative Do the great .movement set afoot some half a" century ago to unite the two great dl visions of North Carolina by a rail road artery, and to Improve the Cape Fear river so important to Wilmington and this section of the state. The late Hon. William S. Ashe, Who was president of the Wljmtagton. and Weldon railroad at the time of his death, and served tihfis district in the federal congress -with such efficiency and ability some, of -the results of his good work remaining to- this day should be long remembered by the peo ple of Wilmington and the Cape Fear section, as he shcuM be by "North Car olinians generally "because of his Im portant services. The North Carolina railroad charter was drawn by hiim It fa surprising that,it can be read for his chlrogaphy was bad and extremely difficult to decipher.- He was ahead of Ms times Jo. width of view and grasp of the sftuaWon. Our " correspondent shows something of the times fifty or sixty years since and the services of Mr. Ashe. Some years ago the late General Ruf.us Barringer read an ad dress of interest bearing somewhat upon this matter, butwe have no copy and do not recall that we read It at the time of delivery. v.j --. y. v It -4s generally understood that the late Governor John M. Morehead. was the "Father of the North:" Carolina Railroad." This is only another exam ple among many of how easily the past is forgotten, how error Is readily mix ed with truth, and how, tilstory be comes so soon what Napoleon, said it was "a fable.". The truth seems to be that , Governor, Morehead was on the other side-opposed to the road at first threw all of 'his Influence against the passage of the charter by the legisla ture. Hon. Calvin Graves, of Caswell, gave a casting vote In favor of the bill af the last moment, but up to ithen it was not kntown how he would vote perhaps he was undecided himself. But he voted for the charter and thus se cured its passage. Let him have all credit and honor for what he- did. He and Governor Moorehead after the ac tion of the legislature, canvassed the central part of the etate for subscrip tion, and secured the building of the road much to their credit. - But Mr. Ashe was the inspirer and original ad vocate of the road. His services in. con nection with the Cape Fear Improve ments are referred to In our corre spondent's article. Mr. Ashe was the father of Captain Samuel A. Ashe, of Raleigh, who, we think, was born, in this city. They are descendants from a famous North Carolina family. When editing "Our Living and Our read" we published a paper upon that family prepared -by the late John H. Wheeler. It was overflowing wlt erroip, which were corrected by Captain Ashe, we having submitted the document to his consideration and supervision.

One of our most respected colored citizens asked .us' a. day or two since what we thought ofthe lease discus sion? We replied that 'Judge Russell was right in opposing the lease, and If in the legislature we should vote against it , and for . several reasons. First, it was a "snap Judgment" it was leasing a great property six years in advance of the expiration of the present lease-, wljich was unfair to the state, hazardous, and a very bad pre cedent. Second, it was too small a price for such property. That it would be-leased for better pay. Third, that it was much too long as to time ninety-nine years? that It was very un just, and might prove very oppressive to coming generations. It is to sell a great property largely owned by the state by the people at large to a corporation for nearly a century during which three generations would have lived. It is to fix upon these genera tions, yet vinborn, a bargain, good or. bad, which they must bear whether in the meantime the property had be come five times more valuable and in dispensibte, and . the population "had grown from 1,700,000 to 4,000,000! We said to our colored friend that twenty years were ay long as any lease should be made of state property to an- cor poration. We Relieve that Hancock's bill, or perhaps it was said In -debate, that twenty years should be the time of lease. Explaining his bill, Mr. Han cock said that the-: governor selected- the Board of Internal Improvements and that he and his board had control of the road. The senate has to con firm the appointment of his board". Practically the governor will boss the board. ! , . "' ; '--'"--' We were reminded of this recently by passing events at . Raleigh. -Mr. Hancock's bill in the house proposes to restore to the people the coatftrKX-ihe North Carolina and the Atlantic andl North Carolina railroad. .:. What he gave in the way of history in his speech edifying. What he said of Us man agement was also of interest, i His bill passed by a vote of more than three to one 75 to - 25 in the house. The bill ought to be amended, if we under stand it. It give too much power to the governor. The Messenger Is "tooth and nail" against dictatorship, one man power, because it. is dangerous, often used ' arbitrarily and unwisely, and should be no part of a democratic republican, constitutional government. If the bill does what Mr. Duffy said It did, it gives the governor entire con trol and also Invests him. With Judicial power a ' thing , not to be tolerated or sanctioned by any precedent' or wise man. It is indeed something . revolu tionary" to place such high power sole ly, wltbr one man and he neither! a saint nor a judicial Solomon, but a man of ability and a well equipped lawyer. SNAPS. The Democrat from Delaware takes his seat In the senate. Gage's currency talk Is being ripped up and Its bad lining is exposed. - " A Mrs. Peyton died In Virginia in 3-896 who was 100 years and 23 days old. : ' V-.": ; ! : - .

The new cabinet is completed at last after much worry and effort on the part of the Incoming president. Mark Hanna is- postmaster general and John J. McCook is attorney general. . General Miles was to have! been pre sented with a fine mansion. Senator Allen, of Nebraska, Introduced a reso lution that may prove an extinguisher upon that sort of army "promotion." And so Mr. Gage is a spiritualist. Will that qualify him the better to understand finance, and to find out .coming results from any dangerous move he may venture upon? ! It reveals the man. I The Danish minister at Washington expects, the Cubans to accept with deep gratitude Spain's offer of reforms, and bitterly denounces them in advance in case they decline which they have right to do and may. ' The fighting force that can be relied upon if the United States should need them is 10,024,584 men; so says the Ad jutant General of the United States Army. c The National Guard amounts to 112,735. . 1 . It is reported that , certain cotton mills in Georgia and South Carolina are so crowded with orders they are work ing day and night. We hope it will continue and that, the favors will spread. The boltocrats : are delighted with Gage. . He is emphatically their man. He voted .for Cleveland twice' for presi dent. He will put a hook in Major Mac's nose and lead him along troublesome route. He will ? make- it impossible perhaps to be re-elected inl900 He is as good a democrat as are the boltocrats. At any rate he Indorses Cleveland as they do. . j NO STATUES, North Carolina has never reared monument to any of Jts native men. , It has caused to be copied Houdon's sta tue of Washington and Stuart's full length portrait of him, but It has hon ored not one of Its distinguished men in civic life, in army or navy, in church or state, i It will not build jnonuments, The legislature will ' absolutely, fritter away days in wrangling or buncome de. bate costing the people thereby some $1,000 each day, but it would not vote a dollar to erect' a monument to Davie oiGerieral Graham, to Sumner or Cas well, to Andrew Jockson or, Thomas H BentOBv to President Polk br President Johnson, to Gaston or Badger, to Chief Justice Henderson or Judge Murphey, to Generals Pettigrew or Pender or to the great Zebulon B. Vance. They could not rise to the point of exalted admiration of lofty patriotism. But it can celebrate the birth day of old Fred Douglass' who had ' no sense of grati tude, and in our hearing censured and insulted the best friend he said he had ever had Horace Greeley. Of course the south's benefactor, George Peabody, a northern born philanthropist of noble, soul and expansive sympathy. He is a .man to be f orverer held in grateful esteem by the: south for he is quite un like the rich men in the north.. , A peo. pie who build no- monuments are de fective in some elements1 of character that dignify and adorn a race. The great historic nations have been monu ment builders. We believe in North Carolina people, think, them second to none on this continent, and will not be silent when they are traduced and In suited, but they are' very careless in some important matters. They will al low no state to surpass; It in making history, but when you come to writing history or erecting monuments to its greatest taen it is far behind other states. r I PEOPLE ALL ABOUT.
