LABOR MATTERS.

The Puddlers Still Undecided on the Oues-
tion of Seeding from the Amalgamated.
PITTsBuRG, juno 22.-It is learned that moth
ing definite was done at the secret meeting of
puddlers here, last Sunday evening. to consider
the advsability of withdrawing from the Anal
gamated Association. The agitation against the
newly signed scale is spreading, however, and
the plans of secession are taking shape. 1t is
proposed either to revive the Sons of Vulcan or
ganization or join the Knights of Labor, and in
either case incorporate the unskilled workmen
and laborers of the mills in the association The
complaint of the would be secessionists against
the Amalgamated Association is that the finish
ers have been favored at their expense and that
of the unsklled, while, when strike occurs,
Its success depends mainly on tho firmness of
the puddlers and their helpers, for, they say. it
would be easy enough to find men to fill the
rollers places at Sic to $l8 day. They also say
that the Amagamased Association is to blame
| in not taking care of the laborers who have
sometimes been paid only so cents day, while
rollers have earned as many dollars week.
| They are also opposed to readmisson OF the uail
ers, as they claim. the puddlers will be the chief
ones suffer by the associations having under
| taken to carry throus b the nailers' strike The
omission of the 20 per cent. extra for cutting
steel nails from the Amalgamated Association
scale is also regarded as o sacrifice of the pud-
dlers' interests and as practical admission that
| the nailers' secession was justified.

The present outlook Tor harvest
III Lhfonrche is good. Corn is near
ly ready for saving and promises
generally good yield. Rice is re
ported >plenuld and only needs IA
continuation OF fair weather to in
sure "a large yield and one of sure
rior quality. Cutting has began on
many plantations. and in IA few
days will be general.
Plant cane is considered satisfac
tory, glowing finely and presents a
pleasant prospect. Stubble cane,
not being Il good stand, although it
looks petty fair, will not prodace a
large yield.
Hay can be saved in abundance,
under the influence Of good wealth

Upon the whole, the prospect in
Lafourcle, seems to be for "A genel
al yield, above an average, and will
afford satisfactory results to the
planter, if reasonable prices can be
obtained for the crops harvested.

II is self-eVident that the indus
trial advance of the south during
the last few years has been mar
vellous, and there is every indica-
ton that it is thoroughly healthy
and permanent growth. 1t is no
sudden matter, but rather only the
beginning of the wonderful advance
ment the south is about to make in
adding TO its own and the nation
wealth. A surplus of full hun
dred millions this year will fit it
for more than doubling that sur
plus next year, and the next decade
will witness the south closely press
ing the noIth In every channel
available for industry. The south
will largely multiply it's demand
for iron and coal within the next
few years, and furnish the iron and
coal from its own mines and fur
naces; and the day is close at hand
when its cotton will be all spun and
mainly woven by its water power
and its labor. And when furnaces
and cotton mills dot the south
wherever needed, every form of di-
versified industry will follow. 1t is
fairly probable that the next de
cade will present a more prosper
GUS industry in the south than in
the north. There are many natural
causes to contribute to that result.
and the southern people are Tow, for
the first time, prepared to utilize
their great advantage This growth
does not mean para ysi4 - der in
northern industry, but what he
south can do better for itself than
the north can do for it Will be done
by..its own enterprise; and the pro
gressive people of the north will
readily adapt themselves TO the
new order OF things. The new
wealth of the south will be largely
ditfused throughout the north, the
southern prosperity will mean the
common prosperity of the whole
country.-Phiad. Iron.
