Extraordinarily show Enthusiastically
the Importance of devoting more attention TO
cotton manufacturing at the South, it isonly
necessary to refer TO the immense profit re-
sulting from the investment in cotton facto-
ries in Lowell. The aggregate capital in
vested by her ten large companies is stated
ut $l3 100000. The amount of cotton con-
sumed is one hundred thousand bales; the
number OF yards produced, exclusive OF
yarns, something over hundred millions /;
and the number Of operatives is twelve
thousand. The operatives are mostly women
and girls. 1t would require at least thirty
thousand field laborers 10 raise this cotton,
and yet it is converted into yarns and cloth
by twelve thousand operatives. The process
for manufacturing the cotton about doubles
its value, and the average dividends declared
by these companies is thirty three per cent.
When we consider the saving in freight and
the advantage which the local buyer has
over the agent for distant companies, it is
manifest that with the same efficient man
agement here which characterizes the Lowell
companies, profit of fifty per cent. could be
realized on the investment. This leaves out
of view the general advantages resulting
from such nterprises-increasin our popu-
lation-erecung local markets, and diyersi-
Tying industrial pursuits. 1t is strange that
the manufacturers Of Europe are not induced
TO transfer some Of their capital TO the South.
They would thus outflank the tariff imposed
for the benefit Of Eastern manufacturers, and
save the immense amount expended on
freights and charges.

The time for the trial of President
Davis, as fixed last spring, has pass
ed, and Chase has discovered, after a
long and tedious investigation, that
he has not been assigned to the Rich
mond circuit and, of course, can not
hold the regular term. This is ad-
ditional proof, of what has long been
known, that the prosecutors of the
great southern patriot are anxiously
looking to the hand Of death for relief
from a dilemma that carries indelible
disgrace on either horn.

THE telegraph still makes occssi-

or Harry has been pardoned by the
President. It's strange that man
of Andrew Johnsons sense, should
take part in so contemplate a farce.
We wouldn't give sixpcnce per doz-

unsustained by indictment, or trial
or conviction. As a means of dis.
grazing the people of the South, the
trick has failed. Drop it.

Washington that the Spanish Minister in
obedience to instructions from his Gov
ernmen,, has proposed to the State De-
pur,ment that the United States sail

South American States, and the Mir ster
also proposes to refer the Spanish cit ms
upon Chilli, which caused the war, to the

to gain in it, and everything to lose. He
is the President. They, and not the rebels,

For the Delaware Republican.
Wilmington, July, II, 1906

To the Secretary of the Atlas B B.. U.
Dear Sir The resolutions ofyour club
concerning the match game OF June 8, have
been received. The letter of Philidore S. Bell,
published in the Delaware Republican and re-
ierred to in your communication has also been
read by members OF this club.
Our reply is briefly this That the evasive
and indirect letter OF Mr.. Bell does not declare
that Mr.. Malone was ever member OF the
Athletic club. The facts of the case are sim-
ply that the Athletics desired to have Mr.. Ma
lone as o member and elected him, bat that he
never accepted; that he did not sgu their con.
stituton, that he did not pay the initiatory or
other fee or receive the ticket OF membership
to which the payment of the fec would entitlo
him under the rules of that club; that he never
played with them as n member, or in any way
regarded himself as such; couse quently he new
or rendered his resignation because he had
nothing TO resign. Furthermore, the accom-
pa nying letter from Col F,tsgerald, President
OF the Athletics daring all the tiiuc 10 which
our discussion relates, will chow that The Ath-
Ietics themselves never regarded him ne
member. Ia addition to this MIR Malone was
from MARCH 1858 to MARuH 1866 membsr OF
the Keystone club of Philadelphia, with the
knowledge Of the Athletcs and az mem Der
played on the Keystone niue at matches IA
Rainst the Athletics. lie resigned from the
Keystone before becoming member of the
Diamond State.
Your mistake 10 Ia concluding that because
club simply voted to elect person to mem
oership, be thereby becomes member. You
have overlooked the fact that it requires his
acceptance to constitute him 10 any sense n
member.
Your hasty conclusion has led you to adopt,
before hearing the evidence on both sides, GER
tain resolutions in which you take the position
that the game played snail not be ono of the
series; that you will not play the series and
that you will not yield the championship. Ia
other words, that finding your master in the
DIAMOND State, you deny that you have played
any game with it, and, though bcstea will
neither yield the honor nor further conirs. T.,
Gentlemen you cannot escape the unpleasant
mesa OF defeat upon any such technica!
grounds. Doubtless if your club had triumph
ed, yoar objections would not have been ad-
vanced, You cannot hoaornbly claim chsu.
pionship which you have not won. You can
not tie the nest club in the State whilst there
ia one better, who's, victory is uucontested.--
You eannet wipe out from the public memory
TN Eotice the tact that on June 9Th, match
gume was played upon your own grounds, and
that the following was tho SCORE:
