WHAT HARRISON HAS BROUGHT.

|
Under the above caption the New Or
leans Times. Democrat brings an interes-
ting array of facts and figures to show the
| dire business disasters that have come
mon the country under the Harrison adj
ministra,ion and says that the Republl-
cans are being brought face to face with
their prophecies that il Cleveland was
elected the country would 90 to rum ;
while if Harrison came in, there would be
more actual business, greater prosperity
and freedom from all financial dlsturoan-
ces.
Mr.. Carnegie was among those who
predicted great prosperity IN the manu-
featuring industries of the country under
Harrison. He will tiud it difficult TO
make his predictions accord with the
facts to-day.
Attention has lately been called to
some of the large failures in manufacture
inc establishments. \ statistican has
taken the trouble to compare HARRISON S
and Cieveland's records III This matter.
He found. for instance, chat the first SIX
months Of the present administration
have been more disastrous As far as ial-
urcs are concerned, particularly Of manu-
featuring establishments, than the last
half year of Cleveland. The latter left
factories in fairly good condition; under
Harrison they have not only not done 50
well. but a number OF them have 1aiicl.
During the first three months Of llar
rison, the Reading Iron Works, with 900
hands and 81 100000 of liabilities, tailed
Billings Il Eaton, Of Boston, shoes, went
under for $l,5O0,O00; Lewis Bros, Of
Philadelphia, woolens, for 100000
the Shaw Manufacturing Company, OF
Wales, Mass; John Lees Il Co., cotton
goods, Philadelphia the Phoenix " oolcn
Mills, of Rhode Island; the keystone
Furnace Company, Of nsylvania the
Waukcgan Cotton Mills, OF Rhode IS
land: the Thornton Worsted Mills, OF
the same state, ana the shOc factories Oh
North Adams, Mass.
All these were among the largest, and
apparently, most prosperous manuiac-
turing companies i'll the Union. That
some companies should fall was natural,
but that so many large and active con
Germs should 90 under was unexpected
and dcmoralizing. 1t contradicts the
idea that the election Of Harrison had
any beneficial effect on the industrial
condition OF the country, il it does not
prove that it was positively injurious.
y or is this to be wondered at when six
months Of Harrison has shown such
lavish expenditure of money that the sur
plus is being rapidly exhausted, an in
crease Of the national debt threatened,
and an increase in taxation made posi-
bic.
Mr. Carnegie and others will have some
difficulty in explaining these failures and
showing why the manufacturing enter
priscs Of the country have, instead of
booming, been depressed ever since llarri
on stepped into office.

4 NEW SETTLERS SOCIETY.

Judge II. c. Rippey makes suSSeS-
ton in a communication which was pup
Eshed in the Tallaha-seean OF last FIJI
dav. that should be acted upon at once
It is this: That all white persons from
other States and countries who have set
tied in Leon county since lSd5, meet at
some central point and participate IN a
picnic. and at this meeting organize q
New Settlers Society
When we stop to think and look around
us we are surprised to find what num-
Der of new settlers there are among us
people from al parts OF the world, and
people too who are wealthy, refined and
cultured.
We do not realize to what an extent
the population of Leon county has been
increased by immigration. 1t is really
wonderful. Take it from the year 1863 to
the present time, and we venture to say
that this New Settlers picnic would be
the largest ever held in the county.
Such picnic would bring people into
social contact that are now strangers,
though living, as it were, beneath the
same roof-tree.
How pleasant it would be to sit be-
meath the wide-spreading oaks Of some
pretty strip of Leon county woodland and
exchange experiences; discuss together
plans for beautityirg and improving the
farm or city residence, and compare the
advantages Of the country with those Of
your former home.
Judge Rippey suggests that this So
ciety be organized early this fall, and that
they arrange for regular meetings, say in
annual or semi-annual picnics, and that
the proceedings OF the meetings, together
with list of the members, their place of
birth, occupation and place Of residence
in the county, be published in the county
newspapers, and that several copies of
the papers containing said proceedings
be placed on tables in all the hotels,
boarding houses and other public places
in Tallahassee, where visitors to the city
can look over the list and see how many
reside here who came from their native
home.
What better immigration literature
could we send out than these lists of act
ual settlers and from whence they came
We all know how pleasant it is when
arriving in strange town to find some
one who came from the same State,
county or town as we. They may be
strangers to us, but we are glad to meet
them, just as much 50 as if they were old
friends, aud, as Judge Rippey says, "they
can give Us a better idea of the country,
it's resources, etc, and how it will com
pare with the country we aie trom.'
The FLoRIDIAN cordially endorses this
suggestion Of Judge Kppeys. The meet
ings OF such a society would be very pleas
ant social gatherings for the new settlers
and then they would be the very best kind
of an advertisement for the county.
Bat why not make it State Society a,
well All Florida should act upon this
suggestions, and every county should or
ganizc New Settlers Society. Then let
each county elect delegates to meet at
some city, say Jacksonville or Ocaia, and
organize q State New Settlers Society.
