AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.
What Shall VIC DO to Encourag,
Manufacturer!

Wealth Is the product of labor. alone. The
individual who works is he who renders our
mines, our farming lands and forests va!ua-
BILE. and without him. or rather his labor.
they would be next to worthless. The foun-
dation OF all values Is hard work, whether IL
be in the workshop, the mill or the field.
Though there may he few who enjoy the full
measure oftleir earnings in the esteem and
confidence OF their iellow-men, yet 1t Is nof-
crtheless a fact that the laborcr or mechanic
is of more Intrinsic value to the community
than the finest gentleman who ever shaved
a note or drove q fast horse. We have
enough Of the latter class-enougli men. at
least, who are willing to live of the commu-
NIFTY without making any adequate return in
productive labor; but we want more pro-
ducers, more hard workers, WHO, will de
relop our vast natural II and make
the most of what a kind Providence has be-
slowed upon our county aud our city. And
VIC eau get them, and keep them here, too.
If the proper course il pursued.
In CONC communities extraordinary In
ducements are held out to mechanics to To-
cate In their midst. We have heard of cases
of a bonus amounting to twenty, thirty, and
even tittj per cent. being subscribed by the
citizens to secure the location of u machine
shop or manufacturing establishment, be-
sides exempting the property from taxation.
This cot.rse has rather become tine rule, a.
iown> in all sorts of out OF the way places are
bringing up yearly, and in most cases their
salvation will depend upon the skilled labor
thcS Will bc able to import. 1t pays, too. The
owner of real estate will find lands and lots
III request; the builders has work to 10; the
farmer can sell his produce directly to the
consumer without paying freight, dunnage,
wharfage, drayage, storage and stealage.
which usually takes the best part ofhis crop.
If the consumer could always buy directly
Of the producer nearly one-aalf the wealth Of
the world could be saved.
The natural advantages of Lexington as a
manufacturing point are mol eXcellcd 10y
those of any place in the State. Here we
have more and better timber, cheaper coal
and greater facilities for transport alton than
almost any town In the West. The lands
around are as productive, the farmers Ms in
dustrious aud intelligent as any under the
sun, and W. buy as Eluch per capita as the
population OF any country, anu yet We go
abroad tor many articles that could be made
just Us well and cheaper at home. We
have relied too much upon our natural ad-
rantagcs. and not used the necessary means
to encourage manufactures; and the danger
is now that the world will go by us. There
are manufactures Of much benefit going on
here and others about to be established that
need encouragement. Let our citizens do
all they can to further their business, and
let cur city council do: the same. Exempt
them from city taxation, aud if need be help
Ethem to obtain a proper location without I'M
necessary expense. 1t will pay a larger per
cent. thar any Other Investment.

tended that the understanding WA TO ex-

Robinson and VIM. B. Steele from Lafay-
cite equity w. f.. Short INT Joseph Higgins
from Pettis county , and Col, W. T. Walton
from Saline county. There are good names
OH the list, but the majority Of the court
would not have rcsorted to SO arbitrary a
method OF appointing them without some
assurance that affairs should be conducted
pretty much as they have been IN the past;
that Is, so as to throw all possible obstacles
in the way OF q thorough investigation of
the shameless frauds that lave from time
been perpetrated. The actions Of tho court
Disguised every fair minded person present,
such nu utter disregard did It show Of every
principle of fair and generous dealing be-
tween man and man. The accredited agents
Of Saline and Pettis counties were present
and CLAIMED the right to be consulted in the
appointment of directors for their respective
counties, but In vain old gray headed citi.
zens spoke, when n young popin-jsy Of q
lawyer, named Short, q relative OF Judge
Ambrose by marriage, had the ear OF the
court and unblushlngly pressed his own
claims for q place on the directory. No
wonder such men as Col. Gentry and Col.
Houston should blush at having their county
represented by 30 evident an upstart We
have long since determined not to give rein
to our indignation in noticing the proceed
in.s OF our county court, but we must say
that body on Monday forfeited the little
remnant Of confidence which might have re-
manned In any mind as to its fail dealing.
In the course Of the proceedings Judge
Ambrose read o letter from Judge KrekeI
advising the selection Of All Impartial anu
disinterested jury, aud promising to the best
OF his ability to have justice done to the
outraged taxpayers OF Lafayette, Pettis and
Saline. This is all very good, but We warn
Judge Krekel now not to place any reliance
haipon the assistance to be rendered III the
pending Investigations by any board Of d.
~rsctors appointed Under the auspices OF our
county court US that court is now constituted.
