MILL TAUC BY SENATOR i PRITCMAKD. t1OJvt1l VIw to RepreitIU of tko Bottoa Join m4 Cop UlUt Who My Waat to Con I ato tko 5Uto Will bo J Cordially. RoeolroA.' In an interview with Mr. L. A. Coolidge, Washington correspon dent of tho Boston Journal, Sen tor Pritchard says: North Caro lina furnishes greater advantages to thoso who desire to..s engage in the manufacture of cotton fabrics Uian any other Southern j State. I Among Our advantages are abun dant "water power, a salubrious climate and raw material in close proximity to suitable locations for its manufacture. We also have an intelligent and industrious population,.! a large majority of whom are native born, from which to seloct our operatives, thus af fording a class of laborers who naturally foel a' groat interest in tho welfaro of oiir State; men who will bo ready at all times o pro tect tho ; property of those who may invest; -tieir money within our borders: j In this connection I will call attention to tho following state ment which is found in a hand book issued', by tho Department of Agriculture of our State, enti tled "North Carolina and: its re sources, pago 189, under the head of 'Cotton Mills, prepared by a practical cotton spinner?' . It is certain that no industry in tho State has thrrvenvvjth such rapidity or been mote healthy in its growth than that of cotton manufacturing, ''For many years thero has boon no cessation in tho exten sion of mill plants or in tho erec tion of now ones and at tho pres ent moment there are probably as many ormore mills in course of erection 'than at any other period. xno rapiu progress 01 tiio last few years is; clearly seen from the comparison of a number of looms and spiiAlles now at work with tho figures' given . in tho hand book of 1803. Tho tigir.es at the date of tho last publication were: Spindles J18W, " 500,3-12, loom's 0,12 spindles, :18)G, ' 879,740, looms, Iti.GR). This growth is at a rapid rat?, but it is none tho less healthy, - for tho mil) stock of tho State stands fully, as . high in the esti mation of investors as thoso of any other $iate,' and tho industry . in North jCurolina has suffered as little, or perhaps less, thau Jhat of any other stitcln tho period i j cal. waves of depression that in- vado cottbnlmanufactunngall thp world over. J , Among; the difficulties of 'and kuu ulawuawiws j UiaUUiaClUring in tho old world and even in tho ui uiu union is tho one of transit of raw material . and hnished product. For a hun dred yeais the spindles of the Worjd h a vp depended al most en tirely on America for their sup . ply of cotton, and now, notwith standing the largo crops raised in , Egypt, India; China' and South America, probably two-thirds of tho spindled in existence use cot . - . . ! ton that h grown in the South. Thcso mills !

' laws that have been incurring all kinds of restrictions and reg ulations, which, however desira ble they may be from a philan thropic or politico-economical standpoint are none the leas gall ing to the average business man. In addition, the older established mills have often to contend with worn out and antiquated plant and machinery. The business men of North Carolina were among the first to see the opportunities of a new era of cotton manufacturing; how, by adopting the latest arid most improved machinery and by pla cing it in modern mills designed for economical working, they could utilize the willing labor in their midst and the cotton around their doors, thus keeping the money representing the cost of manufacture ' at home. The difference in value of the average sized crop of North Carolina cot ton if sold in manufactured fabrics at about fifteen cents, instead of seven cents in the bale, would amount to ? 1 6,000,000 per annum a larger portion of which sum would remain in the State. The advantage Of North Caro lina as a manufacturing section aud the reasons that have made it so successful are obvious. Raw material at the mill door, a regu lar supply of cotton of even grade and staple, absence of obnoxious State restrictions and ( grand motherly legislation on factory questions, plentiful supply of wood for fuel, or proximity to water powers and an abundance of cheap labor, have all had their influences." This picture is not overdrawn and it seems to me is enough to convince the most skeptical that North Carolina will, in tho nejjr future, rank as one of tho leading manufacturing 'States of this Union. ! It is estimated that our availa ble water power is about j 3,500,- 000 horse power, Prof: Kerr, State geologist, says, "If tho whole of this were em ployed in manufacturing it would adequate to turn 140.000.0)0 snin- m ' - ! dies. Tho water power of North Carolina would manufactur e three -r i . ft Modern Treatment of no as The latest work the H treatment of diseases, written by forty eminent.

Thousands T of consumptives believe that there is "nothing: much . the trouble and that there s no need to bother with medicine." Both ire wrong. Consumption is the most deadly f diseases but it is distinctly curable. U aas its inception, like all other wasting: dic tates, in disorders of the digestive onrans,' rod the first step towards its cure must be ie relief of these disorders. Ninety-eight percent, of all case ot con sumption are cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Thousands of con tumptives have testified to their complete rod permanent recovery through its use, iftef they wera given up by the doctors and sll hope was gone. It corrects all disorders of the digestion, makes assimilation perfect, alls the blood with the life-giving elements that build up new, firm and healthy tissues, rod acting directly, upon the lungs drives out all disease-germs.
