Lumber Trade, Bog0u' 'sas
Dear Sir-Yoar favor Of 27th ult.
Is OF hand and contents have had my
best attention ] have noticed at dif
Iereni lines Your views as to- the great
benefit TO be derived from a unity of
feeling on tho part Of manufacturers
and dealers IN lumber, aud most cor
daily endorse them A National
| Convention would no doubt be bene.
hcial to tic whole trade Ia that it
would give to the people at large
more corroot idea of its importance
ut being the second great industry of
our country, would by bringing those
Interests together, tend TO remove
iiterences that ought not to exist.
and establish fixed rules for inspec.
ton and sale of lumber. This last
can only be done by united action on
the part OF tie manufacturers. The
manufacturers Of White pine and
spruce and the manufacturers Of
Southern yellow pine have but few
interests commun to both. The in
spection OF both kinds Of lumber can
not be made alike, neither can any
scale OF prices be fixed to govern both
branches of the trade for these rea-
sons a National Convention will not
be OF any material benefit 10 Southern
manufacturers until the latter shall
have become united and estab-
llshed for themselves fxed rules and
regu ationa to govern the inspection
and sale of their lumber. This has
been accomplished to O certain ex-
tent by their action in convention
last year and hope the convention,
to be held in March next at Whining.
ton n. c., will be productive of
of great good to our branch Of the
trade. AT that convention we hopa
to have full attendance from all
parts of the South and to then re-
concile the slightest differences that
exist between several lumber
ports in our section. The question
Of a Natioral Convention will no
1oubt be brought before the conven-
ion and its actions upon this subject
viii be duly reported TO you. | see
10 good reason ghy manufacturers
Il lumber should not regulate tLe
lasslfication OF lumber and the price
nd terms Of sale as do those that
Iron, Cotton and Wool
N Goods etc. and | hope the cf-
'rts you have made i'll calling the al
'ntion of lumber manufacturers to
lis matter will aid in a convention
all interested, that must necessarily
Q productive of good to them.
hould it be decided to hold Con-
ention, if the place of meeting is
'ntral one, you will no doubt find
number of our manufacturers that
i'll make it convenient TO attend and
advisable participate in its deliber-
ion.
remain very truly yours,
