Sill Room for lcnterprise.

The development of the 'small manu-
featuring" interests OF the South during
the past five years has been remarkable.
Not a very great while ago nearly all the
small wares, utensils, etc, used by the
Southern people were manufactured
North. Now there are small factories
producing such articles in almost every
part OF the South. Very many OF these
factories have been built up TO consider
able proportions, after having been start
ed from very small beginnings.
1t is not difficult for one to procure
Southern made hubs, spokes, ak and hoe
helves, currycombs, washboards, ETC.,
but still the bulk of these articles comes
from the North, and the prices paid tor
them are such as would make it profitable
to establish many other small factories
for their production i'll this section. If
one will step into any house furnishing or
notion store his attention will be at once
called to a thousand and one articles
which are in daily demand everywhere,
and which are sold al prices representing
many times the cost Of production. Such
articles are made of wood, cast iron, tin,
wire. glass. copper. brass, leather, cloth,
thread and paper, and 1t would not be
difficult matter for even unframed ANA
tours to master the manufacture of many
OF them in very short time.
Pluck, industry and tact are necessary
for the success of small manufactures.
These are more difficult to enlist in the
enterprises than the pecuniary capital
required. The finding of regular mar
ket for the products is one of the most
important requisites. This requires
steady and persistent canvassing in all
the centres of trade in the country. Some
important advantages small manufac-
tories have are that in seasons of unusual
depression they can shut down, and little
capital will be idle and few workmen out
of employment, and they are not affected
to any great extent by labor agitations
and strikes.
Every town and village in the South
almost is a suitable location for such
enterprises, and scores of them ought to
be in operation In every Southern city.

jackson and the Veteran.

From "Perleys "Reminiscences Of Si1ty Years
In the National KetroD0tis."
Removals from office that places might be
provided for jackson men were the order Of
the day, but President Jackson was not dis
posed TO dispiace any veteran soldier. Among
other victims designated for removal by the
politicians was Gen. solomon Van Rensselaer,,
whose gallant services against Great Britain
in the war Of 1919 had been rewarded by an
election to the House Of Represent atives, fol-
lowed by his appointment as Postm aster of
Albany. He was decided Federalist, and
the petition for his removal was headed by
Martin Van Bnrel and Stlas Wright.
Visiting Washington, Gen Van Rensselaer,
received cordial greeting from Gen. JACK
seat in a corner. he waited until the room was
cleared, when he again approached the Pres

Col. elders Expedition.

Col. Glider has departed on his pro-
posed exposition to the North Pole with
out creating any great sensation or elicit
ing much interest in his enterprise. HIS
change of plan from the Greenland route
to that by way OF Hudson's Bay VIII en-
able him to traverse several hundred
miles OF country with which he is par
italy familiar, and probably to encoun-
ter Esquimaux who know him and who
may possibly be induced to join him in
the search for the long-sought-for point
at which the world stands still, and where
there may be said to be neither day nor
niQht.
Col. elders idea of relying on the ma
tives of the North alone for assistance 10
enable him to far excel all other Arctic
explorers may be good one, but most
people doubt its practlcabillty. Ii will
probably require good deal of money,
besides wonderful powers OF persuasion,
to secure the services of the right kind OF
companions, If indeed they can be found
at all. Then the long and toilsome
marches, in which great and varied dan
gers must necessarily be encountered,
will, no doubt, be sufficient to appal even
the hardy denizens of the region Of per-
petual ice and snow.
The chances appear to be against the
success Of the expedition. OF course it
must be conceded that success is possible,
but it will hardly be claimed,
under the circumstances, that 1t is
probable. 1t may be regarded as a good
deal more than probable that, after Col.
cation and commerce, he will never be
heard from again. Even should he win
and he has perhaps only about one
chance in ten thousand-aud reach
the pole itself safely and return,
there may be general disposition to dis
credit his unsupported statements, and
to rob him of such honors as may be due
him.
Instead Of being regarded as a wise and
plucky explorer, the Colonel is now
looked upon as a foolish and reckless adj
venturer who might almost as well try to
reach the moon in basket attached to
team Of eagles as to reach the pole with
the aid of the ignorant and not over
vigorous people on whom he proposes to
rely for aid and sustenance.
Although little or no sympathy is now
expressed for Col. Glider. perhaps within
four or five years the public mind will be
wrought upon in his behalf, and an ex-
petition may be organized to follow his
trail and ascertain his fate.

I'd holler the stations 50 plain
That thu N an who was going 10 Texas

That the passenger back in the sleeper
Would all fall cut on the floor;

Speaker Carlisle is probably the most
popular public man in the Union person
ally. Here is tribute voluntarily paid
him by q political enemy, Gen. Ben But
terworth, An OHIO Congressman: Scar
Isle is as good man as there IS in the
House, and the Democracy can boast OF
no better or more faithful worker. AS
Speaker he is fairness personiied. He is
absolutely impartial. l always feel per-
fectly certain that he will do us justice,
aud even in the most critical and trying
times, when Speaker would almost have
a right to lean one way or the other. he
is calm and judicial. cannot speak in
words OF too high praise regarding his
conduct as a member of Congress and as
Speaker" No Democrat could pay such
a tribute to any Republican Speaker that
ever occupied the chair.

The nomination Of the Taylor brothers
for the Governorship of Tennessee by the
Democratic and Republican parties re-
spectively was not by any means coin
cldence. 1t was the result of what was
conceived to be a shrewd move on the part
of the Republicans, whose convention
was held first, to prevent the nomination
of Robert Taylor, who is conceded to be
one OF the most popular and magnetic
young men In the State. They believed
that II he should be nominated he would
be elected by very large majority, and
that the Republican party in the State
would receive blow that might sweep 1t
out of existence.
The Taylor family stands we'll in East
Tennessee, where during the war 1t was
a part of the prevailing Union element.
Alfred, the Republican candidate, natu-
rally became Republican, while Robert
imbibed Democratic sentiments very early
in life from that great and eloquent Ten
nesseean, Landon g. Haynes, who was
his mothers brother. 1t is by no means
an uncommon thing in that section for
families to be divided politically. Many
brothers there fought against each other
during the late war. The Taylor boys,
however, were just little too young to
take part in the struggle.
The Republican device did not succeed,
and the growing enthusiasm among the
Democrats, the young men espe cIally,
indicates that Robert will be elected by a
majority of at least 10000 votes.

The report to the effect that the people
of McCulloch county, Texas, have or
dered all Mexicans to leave, seems to be
authentic. Should the threat to hang
those who do not obey be carried out, we
may have a sure enough international
incident on our hands. We are as much
bound to protect Mexican citizens in this
country as Mexico is bound to protect
American citizens who may reside in
that republic. Our government will, no
doubt, show as much frmness in pro-
tecting Mexlcans, as In demanding pro-
lection from Mexico for It's own citizens.
Let equal and exact justice be done.

his attention drawn to the fact that about
every third farmer on the route was reshing-
ling his barn, and in his innocence he re-
marked to the driver OF the rig:
ut is probably because shingles are so
cheap?
"Not exactly" was the reply. "The county
voted 80 O00 to build poor house, and these
barns all belong to the supervisors"
