GRANGER COTTON MILLS IN THE

The Atlanta Constitution says that
several Changers in South Carolina are
combining to build a cotton mill on the
Saluda river. Upon this suggestion it
proceeds to urge the establishment Of,
first, cotton yarn factories, "at every
cross road IN the State, for the work.
ing up Of its cotton productions, which
can be much more economically ship
ped as yarn than as raw cotton; and,
second, Of regular cotton factories, as
the yarn mills shall prosper and accu-
mulate capital as well as attract both
it and labor, and thus stimulate the
production Of cotton and all other
agricultural products, by thus making
a home market for them. These mills
It says, viii cost but ten thousand dol
lars, and that amount Of money can be
raised in any cotton-growing neighbOr-
hood. As these experiments prove sue
cessful and the opportunity offers, the
entire water power Of the State is to
be used for the propelling of cotton
mills to take the place of these yarn
mills, until Georgia shall become the
New England Of the South. There is
much good sense in these suggestions,
and it is to be hoped the experiment
will be tried.

PROSPECTIVE REVIVAL OF THE
IRON TRADE.


It Is poor consolation IN adversely to
know that we are not alone IN our
misery; such as 1t Is, however, our iron
manufacturers may take 1t to them
selves. The depression of the iron
trade IS general throughout the world.
This state Of things is partly the result
Of an UnfayOTable condition Of the gen
eral industry Of the manufacturing ma
tons, causing a diminished demand for
whatever involves a consumption Of
iron, and more expressly 1t is the con-
sequence Of a severe check upon rail.
road construction and the building Of
iron vessels. AS the iron trade is
dependent upon a thousand other
industries and subsists upon supplying
the instruments Of industry and COM
merce, its present condition is the most
expressive commentary possible upon
the state Of business among the COM
mercial nations generally. The only
cheering fact discOYerable IN this IN
satisfactory aspect Of things Is that the
iron trade of England begins to show
distinctly defined beginnings Of a re-
covery. The reduction IN the price Of
iron IS gradually increasing the de-
mand for it; and now the chief obstacle
TO a steady recovery appears to lie IN
the stubborn refusal Of the wOrkmen
to accept the wages that employers
consider the changed state of things
calls for. This is a difficulty which,
from the necessities of the case, cannot
be prolonged much further; and its
settlement must be in favor of the
manufacturers.

CONGRESSIONAL POWER OVER
uAFVusaa ans

A recent decision Of the United
States Supreme Court has been repre-
scented as endorsing all the theories of
the centralists concerning the unlim-
tied power of Congress over Interstate
commerce. Later information tends
to show that the court confined itself
to asserting the right Of Congress to
abolish any obstruction to such COM
merce that might be set up in any one
or other State. 1t is probable that the
mistake arose from the hasty reading
Of non-legal newspaper correspondents.
The Baltimore Sun publishes the de-
cision in full and remarks:
Upon data furnished by less COM
plete reports Of the decision, it has
been assumed that the opinion lays
down the full authority of the Govern
ment over railroads for all purposes
connected with the question of cheap
transportation. The fact is, the opin-
ion does nothing of the kind. The court
says that, In cases of obstruction of
commerce by the States, Congress
should interpose to the fullest extent
of its constitutional power; but it does
not undertake to say what would be an
obstruction, or what are the constItu-
tional powers of Congress, although it
does express the most earnest hope
that no occasion viii ever arise for
Congress to exercise it's powers, what
ever they may be. Equally erroneous
is the statement that this opinion set
ties the principles involved in what are
called the Granger cases" from Wis
consin, now on appeal to the Supreme
Court. These cases rest on the validity
Of law Of the Wisconsin Legislature
assuming to regulate rates Of trans
pOrtation on existing railroads. The
court, IN the Baltimore and Ohio case,
laid down the law that a State had a
right to exact any condition precedent
to granting the charter but it did
not say one word which can be con-
strued to give the power to a State to
regulate a railroad already in operation.

A ST. LOUIS FAMILY EXTINCT BIZ
THE LOSS OF THE SCHILLER.
s. Iouis Democrat.

The loss Of the steamer Schiller of the
Scilly Isles, in the English Channel, has
brought mourning into many families Of
two continents. Among the two hundred
passengers reported drowned were seven OF
eight from st. Louis. Mrs. RidgeWay and
her two little grandchildren and her son-in-
law, Mr. G. w. Walter, were ON board, and
are believed to be among the lost. Mrs.
Ridgeway was well known in this city
where her husband was engaged in business
many years; he died about five years ago.
Withina period ofeight months Mrs. Ridge
way saw her husband and two daughters
pass away, and now she and her two grand
children have found a watery grave. They
were the only survivors Of the family, and
no relations are left.

AN ACT OF SIMPLE JUSTICE.

We hope the administration organs
which have been denouncing the Lou
isiana banditti' for " breach of
pighted faith" in reseating the Demo.
cratic members driven ont Of the Leg
islature by Sheridan's bayonets, are
now satisfied. 1t is in direct response
to the NelU York Times that the Repub-
Gcan Congressman William A. Wheeler,
of the 18th New York district, who en-
gineered the entire adjustment, writes
that these Democrats "had never been
legally deprived of their seats" and
"being legally entitled to their seats,
and having done nothing to forfeit
them, their reinstatement was an act Of
simple justice, which all fully under
standing the facts must approve .
Sheridan's work is thus undone, and
the people Of Louisiana are satisfied
because they regain self-government.
Let us have peace.
