the people Of America consumed one
hundred bales Of cotton. Last year the
consumption was nearly three hundred
thousand bales, entirely the growth Of

1914. She now stands. in point Of con-

There is q concentrated water power, n.
mounting TO five thousand horses pow

power of Great Britain which is applied

Our columns can never be better

happiness. II is for THE reason thai we
always seize with ssidi.y any opportunity
of forcing these matters on the attention
OF our readers, tina, by dinI Of frequen,
remembrsncers, we may bring our people
to place proper estimate on The unbound.
ed and we believe unriyalled wealth lock-
ed up within the bosom Of our state, only
awaiting the hand Of enterprise 10 draw
il forth. Ii we were accustomed TO set
q proper value on our advantages. and 10
bring them into play, there would no, be
in The Union, a state richer. happier, or
in which q residence would be more
desirable then 10 North Carolina. We
have every thing that may serve TO make
a grea. state. and have the advantage Of
being as far removed from The mob spirit
and in6deliiy Of the North, as we are from
the Lynch law and irreligion Of the
South; with a climate free from tho ex-
lremes 10 which they are subject.
