Preferred to the White Man.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, July 27-The

reference TO the value Of negro labor in i'll
dustrial channels IN the south
The inquiries were sent to 40 leading
southern manufacturers, representing blast
furnaces, rolling mills. miscellaneous iron
works, mines, lumber mills. sawmills etc
Replies were received which Represent 9,OO
negro employees. Of whom 2,'Oj are skilled.
The average wages paid common negro labor is
Sill per day, ana skilled labor runs from
SIZE 10 .2.25 per day, though several cores
pondcuts pay colOred puddlcrs. heaters and
rollers as high a. 81 an 81 per day, and many
furnaces pay as high as S2.5I. The replies,
without a single exception, show that there is
no difference at all between the pay of whites
and blacks for the same class of work.
Views of Manufacturers
The manufacturers are practically unani-
nous in the opinion that for common labor in
the southern states the negro is more efiiC lent

speculative enterprises profitable,
and to depress farm values and the
industries which depend upon farm
products and prices for employment
and pay.
The capital which has been extort-
ed from labor and farm values cannot
be restored. but the power given to
capital by sanction Of law to Cypress
labor and rob lands OF their value,
can be greatly reduced by increasing
the money in circulation, thus In
creasing the value Of the products Of
the farm and Of labor, and thus In
creasing the value and price Of farm
property. Nearly all the combines,
trusts, pools and syndicates and 9TH
er monopolies are the outgrowth Of
the concentration Of capital through
an unjust money system.
BY an increase Of fifteen dollars
per capita to the money volume in
circulation, the value Of farm prod
ucts and consequently Of farms
would be increased at least fifty per
cent. Government railroads from
the grain states to the east, with
proper branches, would add - to $10
an acre to the selling value Of lands
by increasing the profit to the pro-
Queer upon the products Of his farm.
The consumption would be largely
increased because Of lower prices to
the consumer, and the farmer would
be benefited through lower freighte
his prices would be enhanced. The
mortgage upon western farms with
this increase Of money will be nc
larger and with increased prices
prices would disappear Is II by magic
We believe there is no remedy FOL
the present unprosperous condition
of the farmers except an increase in
the general range Of prices; and there
is but one way this can be brought
about and that is in an increase Of
the money volume Of the country.

that it was chronic and incurable.
While FRUSTRATED by q severe attack

the bottle as before, taking three
doses daily, and for nine years after
ward l was perfectly free from tn,
dreaded disease.
A month ago it returned, but try
ing the old remedy, Vinegar Bitters
was cured, as before.
/ write this because you do not es
pecially recommend Vinegar Bitter
for bilious collie. Only those VIII,
have suffered the agonies of this dis
ease, can understand what a boon
sure cure is, and in Old Style Vinega
Bitters yon have the best, and per
haps the only real remedy known.
In reply to Mr.. Page we will ga,
that Vinegar Bitters cures hundred
of diseases; we have not the space 4
catalogue them, and perhaps If W
published them those unacquainte
by experience with our valuable rem
edy might doubt it's efficacy still, q
SO many worthless preparations ar
thrust on the market and pulled i
SO many entravagant ways.
The fact remains, however, tina
those who have been accustomed t
take Vinegar Bitters for any lengt
Of time, are hale and hearty, whethe
they are. young or old. Those VIII
doubt and fail to take it are likely t
fall into all manner of ailments, grea
and small. Vinegar Bitters, both OIL

them fresh, fair, healthy and young
