BUILDING NEW INDUSTRIES .The Southern Field, a magazine issued from the office of the Land and Industrial Department of the Southern Railway and Mobile & Ohio Railroad, Washington, D. C in the June number contains the following: Many evidenees of growth are visible at Marion, North Carolina, on the Asheville division of the Southern Railway, and a junction point with the Carolina, Clinch6eld & Ohio Railroad. Two knitting mills have lately been completed and placed in operation, a $300,000 cotton mill is under construction, and a foundry and macnineshop in course of erection. A $40,000 ho tel is to be finished for fall occu pancy. An appropriation of $6, 000 is being expended upon the streets, and there is also active in terest in the building of improved highways leading into the town, thirty miles of road having been graded and three miles macadam ized within the past two years. Marion is a furniture town, and has four large plants in wbich many men are employed in the making of sideboards, dressers, bedroom suits, and other articles for the household. All of these plants have been erected Vithin recent years, together with a ve neer factory, planing mills, and novelty works. McDowell, the county of which Marion is the principal town, possesses forests of tine timber, in which oak, walnut, poplar, chestnut, pine and locust are the chief varieties, and large supplies of hardwood are available through the transportation lines, making Marion available as a loca tion of other lines of woodworking. Table and chair factories, and plants turning out wagon material, such as spokes, felloes, and hubs, will find conditions of the most favorable character for the opera tion of these industries. Local capital can be enlisted in good business propositions. The population of Marion is twenty-five hundred. Water is supplied from mountain springs eight miles away, and electricity for lighting purposes is furnished through a water power develop ment. In the Catawba river, several miles distant, are fine powers that can be utilized for factory purposes. The town has an elevation of nearly fifteen hun dred feet. In the county are val uable mineral deposits, gold, mica, and monazite being in the mines which have been successfully Oper ated. Numbers of small diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and other gems have been found. Granite, lime stone, and clays for vitrified brick are available. The county produ ces tobacco, corn, wheat, oats, rye, fruits of fine flavor, and many ad ditional crops. Farms are pur chasable at from $10 per acre up. In the -near vicinity of Marion are low-pricecT mountain lands which should claim the attention of the orchardist.

Besides having to pay this privi lege tax, itinerant companies rn put to the expense of renting n opera house or son suitable -nil in which to tire their programme Added to the? two items of rX pense was an outlay for adverttv ing. All this tlion wmol to have been a pretty fair arrangement for all concerned. The town m-eive.1 something with which to help rar ry on its government, the owner of the opera house or hall receive,! something to help up hi place and newspapers and owner of bill boards came in for their share, leaving, after all. a goi sum for the itinerants- Hut the itinerant began to cast about for some way to evade these itenw of expense and they have succeevle!. doubtless beyond their ex lactation, and in this manner: They approach some local in.sU tution a church or some organiza tion for charily and prupv to as he thinks lhy i .L left wi araac pretext of coming U t.tilU met hii daughter who wu r art. ing from it Wnt, bt t u--who wt- t. - :iwt;,oi. realiv anve arrv. i: a. ;are urnc gf Wt.t4 c' ' i-tci llL W , Pi: w latelv ' t - aivl u. : rva. . gr-i ,n h .u.'.nvr of lir.g rn,i.ioir.at-f '.j next r . rry ,r,tl (trart r.lin nt .. ir-4r wp lalelv in iTfU;;, high nrr of t.-- Uep.ihrAn jrt. tr.t g anlj ira:,: rrer. h-. i-uai il siKi for lorn t :uTr er, ii last fall h a U t nimitu,; i,y Mr. '.rant that j(..n hi arrnti Were Kridav. h-e . n-H k'tg jb makirg hi v t J-e?iU office.

Governor Kitcbin issued tonight a statement as to the validity of the $500,000 bond issue, to the ef fect that the State officers have no doubt of the legality of the act, but since the issue has been raised by prospective, purchasers, it is thought best to have the Supreme Court settle the matter. In the meantime the Raleigh Savings bank, which was awarded the en tire issue as the highest bidder, pays $125,000, the remainder of the $500,000 and premium to be paid when the validity of the bond is settled. This advance payment, it is. stated, will be returned m the event the act is not sustained.. In the meantime it will enable the State Hospitar Commission to con tinue its work of enlarging and equipping the; State institutions, The trouble grows out of a "proviso amendment to- the - first section; adopted on thirds-reading without separate day:rolL cak It stipula tes that $31,000 of the bond issue must apply, to the deficit of the Morganton and Goldsbpro hospi tals.

The local or ganization to be lienetitted c cepts the proixsition and starts out to get the free use of a hall, free use of the newr;ers arvd the free use of every merchant s dis play windows for billboard pur poses and exemption from the town tax, asking all this because the t traction is for the benefit (h of some local institution. Such itin erants were willing for awhdr to do a little of the work towards drumming up a crowd lu.t thev have cut that out now and pect local parties to do all the work. It is needless to say that the itiner ants usually get alout all they ask for and then the lion's share of the proceeds, and poor Miss Charitv gets what is left for her jams, a1, usually there is very little of th.it. It is wonderful, too, what things are asked and done in the name of charity. Many of those who are prevailed ujhxi to attend vt .'t en would rather give the rntir" price of admission to lova! charity than to give the bulk to ouLsider. The Salisbury corresoodM.t of the Charlotte Observer, writing to that papermder the date of May 31st, ult,, says: "The liark'Mt Carnival Com pany, which has just closil a week's engagement at Spencer, will likely be the last aggregation of its kind to exhibit in Rowan for some time to come, a it is under stood that no releaMi from the h- n)V s 'n ej v ! i r ft I S( r t r a r. t ien ie ! tr t v ev wc n I l If lvrr- inre1 fr or 'ivwr.Tr n lSevi:tUfl.
