STATE REPUBLICAN TICKET
THE NEW SOUTH.

The Greenville South Carolina) News
draws parallel between the North and the
South as to their material positions. The
South had the advantage of soil, climate and
wealth at the time of the formation of the
federal government. At the end of eighty
four years, when the war of the rebellion was
initiated, ''the Yankee section came to the
fight richer and stronger than our southern
section, and beat us into the earth" To-
day, continues the News, these same Yankees
furnish the bulk of the capital we use, the
food we use, the clothes we wear, the books
we read and study, the high-grade teaching
in the normal schools of the Southern States.
s'They have done more for Florida in ten
years than the natives of Florida have done
in fifty years" And 30 on.
There is no bitterness in the article, but
there is the admonition that the South must
adopt some of the Yankee ideas if it would
prosper. That it is rapidly doing so is indi-
Gated by the record of new enterprises this
year. During the last nine months there
have been started in the South forty-two ice
factories, ranging in cost from $i5, 600 up to
$3.50, 600; ffty-six foundries and machine
shops. many of them of large size; one Bes-
semer steel-rail mill, sixteen miscellaneous
iron works, including iron-pipe works, bridge
and bolt works, ETC.; FIVE stove foundries,
nineteen gasworks, twenty-three electric
light companies, eight agricultural imple-
ment factories, one hundred and fourteen
mining and quarrying enterprises, twelve
carriage and wagon factories, nine cotton
mills, nineteen furniture factories, twenty
one waterworks, forty four tobacco factories,
seventy-one -four mills and three hundred
and sixty-two lumber mills. The amount of
capital and capital stock represented by the
new enterprises, the enlargement of old
plants, and the rebuilding of mills during
the first nine months of 1886 is $50, ,934, 200,
against only s52, 1856, 800 during the CORE
spending period of 1885; and it is asserted
that the South has made more solid and sub
stantial industrial progress since January l.,
1886, than ever before in the same length of
time.
This is very encouraging. It is evident
that the southerners are fast finding the way
to greater prosperity than they ever enjoyed.

TRICKS OF THE TRADE.
A Successful Cigar Dealer Tells Ho
the Profits are Increased.

Successful Cigar Dealer Tells How
the Profits are Increased.
[From the Chicago Herald.l
"Holdng a trade in this business requires
good deal of tact" said a successful cigar
dealer. "In the first place the skillful cigar
salesman will gradually work his customers
up from five cent cigars to ten cent, and
some of them from ten cent to two for a
quarter or even three for a half, with pro-
portionately greater profits for the house.
This is done by playing on that vanity which
is the one universal trait of the masculine
race. Even if a man has no vanity about
his good looks or his clothes, it is easy
enough to discover that he has one about the
kind of cigars he smokes. By word OF
two delicately dropped here and there about
a mans fondness for good cigars, and his
admirable judgment concerning them, the
ground may be prepared, and if this is fol-
lowed up by handing him out box of high
priced goods and remarking, when the mis-
take is discovered, that you supposed he al
ways smoked that price, you will at once dis
cover that your seed had been dropped in
good soil. The chances are that the custo-
mer will smoke those cigars right along
thereafter.
sAnother good method is to stand by
when your clerk is waiting on a customer.
The clerk say hands out box of ten cent
ers, when you rush up, jerk the box from
his hand as if indignant that such an in
suit should be offered one of your custo-
mers, and sharply e1claim: Don't you
know that Mr.. So-and-so never smokes
anything but the best two-for- a quarter?
Then you get the box of more expensive
cigars. The customer takes a couple as q
matter of course, and at the same time in
wardly thanks you for the compliment you
have paid him. Thereafter he becomes G
regular purchaser of the higher priced
goods. OF course the clerk understands
you and everything is lovely. But if man
comes into my store and asks for cigar,
and my clerk should inquire what price or
hand out nickel cigar, I should discharge
that clerk the next minute. It is his bus
mess to hand out ten centers in such cases
and sometimes two for quarter
"About holding trade2 Oh, yes You
have to keep big variety of goods. You
want to ask your custom how they liked
that last one, and occasionally invite them
to try something new you have received at
your own expense. Cigars given away in
this manner make a good Investment. But
above all you must watch your customers
and without their knowing it change the
brand on them. Nine out of ten men will
tire of brand after smoking it a week
Without saying a word to them you want
to keep changing them from brand to brand
thus keeping them satisfied all the time and
their appreciation keen. This is one of the
cardinal principles of the cigar business that
good many dealers don't learn or are too
careless to put into practice. Such men can
never build up and hold good trades.

He Stayed I'm Too Long.

ldalSton" IN the New York Times.
One day not long ago had business at the
office of prominent stock broker under the
shadow of old Trinity church, and was
obliged to wait in one of his Office chairs for
an hour or 80. The most interesting figure
in the assembly of customers who were
eagerly watching the ticker and tape was a
mere lad, possibly twenty years old. He was
in high state of excitement, hopping here
and there and keeping up constant volley
of enthusiastic CALCULATIONS as quotation on
quotation ratified in from the Stock Ex-
change. 1t was hard to believe, but this boy
was a speculator. One of the old habitues
of tho Office told me his story. He came
down to Wall street last summer just about
the time that the schools let loose their pu-
pills for vacai ion; he had FIVE hundred dol
lars in cash; he had the acquaintance of one
of the worthy gentlemen who abound in
Wall street, q pointer" a dispenser of
"tips'' on the market, a man who knows it
all and can tell you to an eighth of one per
cent. just where market quotations are going
for months ahead. The pointer in this case
got the five hundred dollars; the lad had his
head turned in expectation of riches. His
"long" of one hundred shares of stock. 1t
was a lucky venture. His capital was
doubled within fortnight Then it doubled
again. He became of the most conspic-
uous dabblers in stocks that traded at the
house where his account was carried. He
jumped in quick; he jumped out quick. 1t
wasn't hard to believe that he was on his
way to the position of millionaire. Lots
of other customers got to following him.
1.-THE Mascot" they called him. And when
the New York and New England deal came
along he had something like five thousand
dollars to his credit on deposit; his 'fpoints"
put him into that. He bought away down
at the bottom price; he sold at the top. His
ty times its original size; he had made one
thousand dollars for every year of his age.
Lucky lad. So everybody hailed him.
Yesterday he walked out of Wall street
with never a cent to his name. He had gone
broke all of a sudden. He had not had the
sense to know when he had enough; he was
the pointers own. And finally the pointer
had blundered-just as the professional
pointer always does blunder sooner or later
and the Mascot's every dollar was spilled out
to cover losses that come on purchases of Pa
cifc Mail stock up in the neighborhood of
60; yesterday it was sold down to 5115 And
it was that last d that wiped out the "lucky
lads" last penny.
The case isn't exceptional. 'Nine out of
ten people who make money in Wall street
on mere chance speculation always stay long
enough to lose it all and more too" This is
the declaration of one of the veterans of the
Stock Exchange

An English Musical Lord.

Lord Gerald Fitzgerald, who died last
week at the age of sixty -four, was best known
to music lovers as conductor of the ssWan-
dering Ainstrels," an excellent amateur
orchestra, which occasionally gave public
performances for charity, but which regu-
larly played at the smoking concerts in the
music room adjoining Lord Gerald's resi-
dence in Sloane street. The Minstrels were
at the zenith of their fame about twenty
years ago. At that time an important feat
ure of their entertainment was an oyster
supper. The meal was abandoned when the
nollusca, which the average penny-a- liner
delights in calling the 'ssucculent bivalves,"
reached famine prices. Lord Gerald Fitz-
gerald was capital musician and conductor,
and a fair amateur double-bass play

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Henry George is showing very plainly by
his speeches that it is not for the interest of
the people of New York to elect him mayor.
Chairman Jones of the national Republican
committee says: SIT is a question whether
Mr.. Blaine cares to pass through another
presidential siege as candidate, and for my
part am satisfied that he does not, though
this matter will be made known later"
Robert P. Porter, who has been at Rich
mond during the Knights of Labor assem-
bly,, says that thinking men are disgusted
with the narrow way in which things are be-
ing managed. They talk of the "hollow
mockeries now posing as leaders of labor and
friends of the workingman."
Russia is in good fighting condition. Ia
elusive of her naval forces she has at her
command fully 2, ASS, 900 combatants. The
process of military reorganization has been
going on chiefly during the past twenty
years. The main army is composed of $50
battalions, 60S squadrons and 352 batteries,
making total of 1896, 900 troops of all
arms. The reserve army is made up Of 522
squadrons, 529 battalions and 116 batteries,
forming an offensive force of 1854, 900 men.
These are all ready for service at moments

When Governor Hill pardoned the Thesis
boycotters he said that they were penitent
and had promised in writing to cease boycott
ting and obey the laws of the State. Paul
Wilzig, who is one of the pardoned boycott
ters, doesn't appear to be penitent to any
great extent. Since his release Wilzig has
made speech full of invectives against eapi-
talists and those through whose brutality"
the boycotters had been sent to prison and
denouncing the governor who pardonsd them
as demagogue. He declared that however
disagreeable was the confinement in prison in
the society of thieves and other criminals, he
would rather have completed the term to
which he had been sentenced than to give
t'that demagogue Hill" any reason whatever
to imagine that he could use him and his as
sociates as tools with which to catch votes
for his party in the approaching elections.
The speaker was interrupted by laundering
applause and shouts of s'the demagogue
Hill, and then he added that the governor
had made a mistake in his calculations, for
the socialists knew what his motives were,
and that he had acted merely from self-in-
terest ALI of which indcates that he is
very penitent and grateful to Governor Hill.

MIR. FARMERS REMAINS.
The Complete Identification of the
Skeleton Found Near Tooele.

The coroner's inquest held over the
human remains found near Tooele last
Monday, finished the taking of testimony
late yesterday afternoon and concluded
that the bones were those of MIR. J. d.
Farmer, who was drowned in the lake
over four years ago.
Several of the friends of the deceased
gave their testimony as to the shape of
the head, the identity of the remnants of
the bathing suit found with the body and
as to the color of the hair. Mr.. Louis
Hyams introduced chart of the filings
which had been placed in the teeth
by DR.. Chapman shortly before
the drowning. The corresponding of
the filings in the teeth with
those represented on the chart were exact,
and made the Identification of the remains
a most complete one.
The body was brought to this city last
evening, and will be buried under the
auspices of Mount Moriah Lodge. of
which the deceased was member. The
finding of the remains will put an end to
the stories circulated at the time of the
death, and will therefore be gratifying to
all his friends.
