TUESDAY, OOTOBBB , 1898,
Thi Tisit of President Cleveland
fooussed the attention of the world
, upon Atlanta and .her (treat Exposi
tion. The President like all other
, visitors, was surprised at the magni
tade of the fair. He spent some
time looking at (he exhibits and
seemed to enjoy the trip with great
' eest f Parades and great crowds are
not new to him, bat this wonderful
; display of the resource? of the South
v he oharaoterized as a marvel of real
; reconstruction. He was natuarally
interested In the government exht
' bit and spent some time there. It is
claimed by the government board of
the Jury of awards that this exhibit is
superior to any the government has
made elsewhere.
PROGRESS IN THE SOUTH.
There are some very instructive
. and interesting facts in the following
from the Boston Herald, whioh we
are glad to note, does not like its
neighbor, the Globe, confine its obser
rations and its circulation to . the
New England States alone. The
Herald says:- -,. -
The South is a yery large expres
sion and progress in the South indl
nates a movement distributed over
many States not at all alike, either
' In natural advantages or lately ao
quired enterprise. Some parts of the
Houbh are still very backward, while
others have made advanees of late
years which it would be difficult to
find excelled in any other section of
the country. People have become
. familiar with the rapidly increasing
production of the great agricultural
staple of the South. Between 1880
and 1383 the crop kept within 6,000,
000 of bales, by 1886 it was 6,600,000,
and by 1889 close on 7,000,000. The
maximum was thought to have been
reaohed when the crop of 1890 ex
oeeded 7,300,000 bales, but that was
" thrown into the shade when the ex
inordinary crop of last year showed
a total of nearly 9,600,000 bales. The
present year's crop will be very far
short of this in quantity, though,
thanks to the advanced price, its
: value may be as great In the natu
rat order of things, the crop ot 1894
will not stand long without a rival.
. When Texas grows more cotton than
all the Southern States did before
the war, and she is still at the begin
ning of her agricultural development.
the cotton-producing possibilities of
' the South are very far from being
, exhausted.' ...,'Yt ":?
V Side by side with the growth of
what used to be the only source of
Southern wealth there have been
t growing up a more diversified agri
culture and the beginnings of a wide
range of manufactures. Mt is charao-
teriatio of the new spirit of the South
that the cottonseed oil industry is
" the growth of the period since the
war. Aproduot which was reckoned
useless in 1860 figured in 1890 as hav
ing a value, after treatment in the
: mills, of f 2a.834.O0O, and is today the
. basis of an investment in buildings
and machinery of $30,000,000. : .... t
, , in 1880 the whole South produced
only 143,000,000 bushels of grain; tost
, year the yield was 600,000,000. ; The
' number of tons of ooal mined in 1880
was but little over 6,000,000, while
in 1894 it was 30,000,00a The out
put of pig iron in the South in 1880
was 397.300 tons, and in 1894, 1,500,000
tons. The value of the product of
sawed and planed lumber, which in
1380 was $46,938,000, had risen in
1894 to $114,746,674. The true value
of southern property, according to
the census returns of 1880, was $7,
641,000,000; last year, it was estimat
ed at 67 per cent more.
There today some $300,000 in-,
V" ' i intJinufaotcx' enterprises
i:i t' e Eoalh, with anestimiited an
r .1 Tf.!i:ecf product cf $1,000,0'
(. . X Ci ie former, about 51Q8,0w,-1
000 is invested in cotton mills, or
five times as much as in 1880, and
some $93,000,000 is invested Id lum
ber mills. A recent writer on the
South remarked that with the pos
session of all the raw materials
entering into manufactures, with
cheap labor and cost of living, the
industrial future of the - South
should be of the brightest But the
fact that these resources remained
so' long undeveloped and are now
ooming so fully intoevidence, argues
a change in the spirit of the people
more significant than the lnexhaust i
ble bounty of nature. Mo one at all
familiar with the old South can fail
to be struok with the resolution with
which the men" whom the war left
penniless setthemselves to repair
their wasted fortunes.
