There has been a great storm on the
Gulf, and great damage has been done
at Galveston and on the Lower DIissis-
sippi south of New Orleans. In Plaque
mine Parish alone the damage done the
rice crop stored is estimated at $3.50, 600.
At Galveston no estimate is given, but
the damage done to the shipping Is im-
p,ensc of itself. A large amount of cot
ton was destroyed. The street railways
have been torn up. The tide rose to a
higher point than ever before. The
gale shifted to the northwest and IN
creased in fury.

The South has not forgotten what Mr..

called attention TO their growth in At

boasts of their value to that go-ahead

cussion of this subject is worth repeating.
There are in that city four trunk-TnakiIlg
establishments. All began in a small
way. The total capital OF the four is
now $3.50 but these four, with that
small aggregate capital, now employ
many more skilled workmen, pay them

the owners than would u rolling mill

IN Industrial RavoIr.t. ,

The year 1880 was The '~-. /, u a
new era for the South. For MI zen years
she had teen enduring the troubles that
followed closely upon the civil WOE, end
her people as a whole had given but lttle
attention to industrial development. In
a., the States men had been busily en-
ployed in say ing the remT ants of their
shattered foItInes, or, where nothing
was left, in working to support them
selves and those dependent upon them.
The fortituie displayed by the adult
generation of that transition period, I'M
der most depressing circumstances, Will
be one of the grand chapters i'll American
history. Atlanta was, perhaps, more
than any other city, typical of the ener-
gy, the fortitude, the perseverance of the
South. 1t had been destroyed and was
rebuilt its trade, which had been dis
trIbuted among more fortunate cities,
was regained, and the splendid pluck and
energy of its people had quite as much to
do in attracting capital 10 the Gate
City" as did its advantageous location.
In 1880 its fame for ENTERPRISE was estab-
lished throughout the land. In that year
its Chamber of Commerce took new
departure by inviting Mr.. Edw9rd At
of Boston, to address the merchants of
their city on practical subjects. Mr.. At
kinson accepted and in due time ap-
peared before them and delivered a
lengthy address that, in tie light of sub
sequent events, may now be considered
prophetic. 1t was a plain statement of
simple business propositions that, if
adopted and followed, would lead to
prosperity. Among other things he told
his auditors that no people could acquire
wealth until they learned to appreciate
the relative values of the cent and the
nickel, and that the wealth of the North
had been accumulated from understand
ing this. He referred also TO the i'm
portance of diversified industries, and TO
the greater value to communities of
what are called the petty indust sies
That address was published in full in the
Atlanta tuition, and later in pam
phlet form, and was scattered broadcast
through the South. Ii was the seed of
new ideas scattered into thoroughly pre-
pared soil.
Next year the Cotton Exposition sug-
gested by Mr.. Atkinson was held at At
lanta, and there, for the first time, the
Southern people, as we'll as the country
at large, learned of their countless natu-
raj resources. The railroads traversing

materials at their command, would take
