A Case OF Cheek.

Mr.. Timothy Hurley, ne are told, pas
bought some pieces Of silver 1--WE are not In
formed whether the Lumber be thirty, or
not, which he intends as prizes for which
the white fire companies Of Charleston, in
the persons OF their respective Presidents,
shall compete at the coming tournament.
And further, that he stipulatess that the
award shall be made by committee OF Ia
dies to be designated by the companies.
Now Mr Hurley, whatever he may have been
when he 1ntered the political arena in South
Carolina, is understood to be large capital
list, and it is natural enough that so shreWd
politician should be more than willing to
cultivate pleasant relations with 80 large and
influential au organization as the Charleston
Fire Department. 1t is matter OF small
concern to those whose interests Mr. Hur-
lev, by pleasant fiction, is supposed to rep
resen. in the General Assembly, how be may
choose to indulge his eccentric or generous
whims; but, in the present instance, we
shall be curious to see how our white fire.
men, among whom the sources OF Mr.. Hur-
ley's wealth are hardly secret, will relish
the idea of becoming the contestants for his
bounty, and especially Of selecting from
among their lady friends those who may
covet the honor of making the award. In
case the white tiremen should not manifest
o becoming eagerness to engage in the pro-
posed rivalry, we would mildly suggest that
the prizes be turned over TO the colored fire.
men, majority of whom are Mr.. Hurley's
own constituents and supporters, and who
woa.d, doubtless, be less fastidious in their
views than their white brethren.

impelled by the power OF that crop. When
a few more crops shall have added that large
annual amount, and the mechanic arts shall
have become established by the immigration
of skilled artisans, and the trained labor re-
uuired in shops, factories and mines shall
have been supplied, then the capital and
skill that is now accumulating there will be-
get diversified employment, and agriculture
will find it's own remedies for excess in any
single speciality. But the capital must 20 on
accumulating while longer. To the inquiry,
what has become OF the large sums already
acquired by the South MIR. Nourse answers
as follows: Much of it has been expended IN
reproductive power some is employed
through bankers and others; large pro-
portion is boarded, as is the habit in scat
tered agricultural communities; and all OF II
remains scattered and Ineffective, when it
should be concentrated. The mountain
ranges are filled with valuable minerals; be-
tween them and the cotton-belt stretch vast
grain fields, awaiting cultivation to sustain
mining and mechanical industries.
In respect to price, both for the staple and
the articles consumed by it's producers. the
general advance is nationally accounted for.
Mr.. Nourse shows that cost of sgd. on the
plantation would be about 12lc. per pound
currency. A surplus Of million and hall
bales would be no greater to carry over now
than was half that number OF bales in lS57-5Si
There is very large increase in the supply
OF gold; trade and markets are greatly ex-
tended; there exists everywhere an lncreas'
ed buying power, even among barbarian ar q
half-clvized people; and transportation mas
become cheap and rapid. Hence the average
value of everything useful or ornamental mas
been enhanced, and why not cotton' Hall
the crop is to be produced, as estimated,
without hired labor, nor will the latter be
what it was last year, nor more than for able
bodied hands in 1860. Lands bring less than
half the price at that time. Everything is
as cheap now, except sui iTtence supplies,
as twelve years ago. Hence it is mistake
to say that cotton cannot be raised for less
than twelve cents, when the South became
wealthy by producing it for series RI years
at not more than seven, and oftener ir5s than
that The great problem, in Mr.. Nourse's
opinion, is to bring about mutually satisfac-
tory and stable relations between laborer
and employer, and that is the work OF time
and good intentions The crop of 1901
brought wealth to the South, and the crop. OF
the present year ought to be made for less
cost; and though low prices for cotton look
uniavorable, they are capable of working
out permanent benefit to that section, and
the whole country. And thus they will if
continued, have done more to establish cot
ton production in the South on stable and
profitable basis than all the years OF high
prices since the war. Economy of manage
ment and larger application OF personal
industry and labor are insisted on as the
surest supplementary agencies for restoring
the South to a state OF permanent prosperity.
