The cotton industry, says Mr. Ed monds wii’ naturally c.KparM as the requirement ineroasGs, and nowhere on earth can tim supply eome up to the uemaud as in America. Follow- iog- the iigricuitural production of cotton, comes the industrial procluc tion i>f cotton goods. In this line, too, we are showings signs of inter est by building for ourselves cotton inllis. or by becoming operatives in liie mills owned by. others. The hold uf industry as it broadens in the South naturally encircles those who Jive within its borders, and, though at iirst there may be some inclination toward discrimination, the evident demaud for labor re- pulres the utilization, of that in hand Defore seeking elsewhere for help. I'lconomy goes a long way toward directing the projectors of outer- prizes who to employ, and aAer a w'hilo tile}’ naturally seek ^for the largest amount of proilt at the small • t' 5?^^ Tiio iirnu'.vteis use the ^ iit-iible cfnploy))ient throughout all the South. Mr. Edmonds points out the fact, that while low priced coUou may be a discouragement to some individual farmers, it djeeomes of especial advantage to the South in that it gives the South a mono,ply which it otherwise would not have. Couple to this the fact that the South is mau\ifaetui‘ing and consuming its own products, we gam through the reduction of prolits on the man ufactured goods. Mr. Edwards turns from cotton to ron aud in ligures proceeds to show the relation the south liokls to the world, Alabama is pointed to as f “the ruling spirit ' in the market o pig iron aiul there is little doubt that .Teel will be the next step in the forward march. J-lorc again our people come in for a sluire for we hnd that, from the mine to ma chine shop, the .Aegro is ■utilized with profit to himself aud his em ployers.
