While the growth and prosperity of the North under our protective system has been phenomenally great, the South, since she began to develop her industries, has grown at very rapid rate. Randall, in a speech last fall at Atlanta, called attention to this: Tn. total valuation of the fourteen South ern States in 1880 was g, 370, ,926, 206 In the seven years which have passed since, over $l, ,O00,000,0 have been added to the taxable property in these states, making it now nearly $3,500, 900, 900. This advance was more mark ed during 1887 tbsn in any previous y-ar. In the first nine months of last year, S2l2,455.000 were invested in new factories in the South, against $83, ,S34, 200 invested during the same period in 1886. The new companies organized from January l to October l, 1887, number 2,594, against 1,l75 organized between the same dates last year. According to statistics, 15,000 new industries have sprung into life in the Southern states since 1879, l5000, miles of railroad have been built, the production of iron has increased from 397,000 tons to 876,0O0 tons, and the coal mined from 6,OOO,00O tons to l4, 100000 tons.

The contentious of Virginia have
come very early before the convention
and some bad blood is engendered but
there is no danger of it's spreading
outside of the Virginia delegation.
The convention is too brainy and has
too many representative men in it to
be swered from it's usual course of
procedure in this matter. The COM
mite on credentials will first pass
upon the contest in Virginia, after
that it may be discussed in conven-
