remained about that ever

I facts, from which lie con
chides t oi'gress must come
to the aid of this " languish
ing industry." We don't
think so. The same reason
1 , would call the aid of  on
:gross with a j>rotective taritT
j to every art icleof trade w hen
the supply exceeds the le
mand. and when experienced
and expensive production
comes in contact with skilled
labor and economic produc
: t ion. 1 f miners made i% big
money," as is said, when mi
ca was a pound, they
can make some money at
s 1,70 a ]>ound. 1 f imported
mica, after paying freight
across the ocean, pays any
profit. our home product ion
must add the amount of,
freight s pa id by the imported
art icle to the protitsof home
producers. Mr, I'llillipssays
the market is not over-stock
ed. that our mines are not
exhausted, and our mica is
not excelled by any in the
market. With these advan
tages in favor of our home
productim. it is childish to
ask t lie (iovernment to pro
tect it against importation.
New Hampshire mines may;
be so far advanced as to re
quire more expensive machi
nery. but our North Caroli
na mines are comparatively;
new, and with the improved !
faeilit ies f>r mining, ahould
be able to compete with im
ported mica. When digging
mica at >1 .7"> a pound dm't

without a protective taritV.

The grand jury struck a very good
lick when they made their present- 1
ment in obedience to his Honor
Judge Boykiu's charge concerning,
the present condition of the Court-
House. What ought to have been 1
done some years aro, is to enlarge '
* O
the Court-House at north cud by
thirty feet addition. This addition
should be commenced at an earl/ j
day and completed before the neit
, court, hp farmers, who are the tax- '
payers, have but a poor accommoda
tion and showing when they come to
court. There is scarcely any place 1
to sit, and they hare to stand ail day i
if they want to hear the business of
the court. This is almost a shame
for Catawba county which claims to '
be the " Banner County, to have no f
better accommodation for her hard- 1
laboring,' tax-paying farmers, who I
hare to labor and toil to raise the 1
taxe» to maintain and support a
county governiaent. I hope this 1
matter will be accomplished at an '
early day. J. F. T. '
