that for the most part their teachers are
not well to do people and need their pay
when they have earned it, and that Ii Is
no harder for the district hire the mo

teacher to run around and look up some

Southern Iron.

1t is sale prediction that in another
decade the Southern States will be the
centre of the iron industries OF the
continent. The investors are all look
ing this way, and it is useless to say
they are receiving a hearty welcome
from the Southerners. The New York
Star, in commenting on the purchase
OF the largest pig iron concern in the
country by an English company OF
capitalists, remarks:
"But there is rumor in the same
connection that is more significant
than anything about the deal itself. 1t
seems that some OF the heaviest inter-
ests in the concern in question propose
to invest the proceeds of the sale in
establishing furnaces in the South.
For several years the competition Of
Southern iron has been serious
question with the iron masters Of
Pennsylvania. They haye denied the
claims of the Southern producers as to
the relative cheapness of making iron
in that section. But the South has
continued TO sell its iron at lower fig
ures than the Pennsylvania product
in markets hitherto sacred to the lat
ter, and to make profit on it, too.
at now seems that some of the lead
ing men OF the trade in the North are
fully converted to a belief in the ad-
vantages OF the South for iron produc-
ton. Ii the results outlined above are
realized, it will be long step toward
the coming supremacy Of the South in
manufacturing industries"
That is pretty prophecy from
Gotham and a very cheering one for
the South, and if they will only bring
along with their capital million or so
OF skilled laborers to work the new iron
and coal fields and furnaces, which
they must of necessity do if they in
vest as above predicted, the differences,
sectional or otherwise, between the
North and South will within anothe heH
decade be rather more unsubstantial
than the imaginary Mason and Dix.

In MEMORIAM.

AT meeting Of the Young Mems
Christian Association OF Johnson City,
Tenn, on the 1st day OF Sept. 1889 the
following resolutions in memory of
H. R. Kenyon were read and adopted.
We have met in memory of our de-
parted brother. He was an active
member of this association at the time
OF his death.
For the first time in the history OF
our work we are called to a halt by the
unexpected, and to us untimely death
Of fellow worker, friend, and a
brother.
In his sudden departure we have
impressed upon us the impartiality Of
death and the exact equality OF its de-
mands upon all ranks and stations Of
life. II unclouded honor and the en-
dowment of the manly virtues of the
manifest man could have plead their
worth in bar OF the entrance OF the
words great foe into the citadel of a
pure heart our brother could have
met and conquered him.
He was young man endeared to
us by the even tenor and pleasant
manner OF his business life as we'll as
by his gentle and unassuming social
ways and manners. He left us but a
few months ago full OF hope and with
the brightest prospects of life before
him. There was no cloud in his sky
and the sunshine OF life fell in soft
and tender lovelness on his pathway
and invited him on to success anC
happiness.
He was friend to the association
and delighted to encourage and dc
} work for the ennobling Of young men
: Away from home and the influence
which surrounded him there he founC
J in the bosom of this little circle eth
: home of the homeless boy"
Therefore, belt resolved That hi
example shall ever remain light t
: our feet, and that his name shall hol
I sacred place in our memories.
End. That we extend our sympa
Q thy to the bereaved relatives an
q friends, and invoke the comfort an
guidance Of the Holy Spirit on the
lives.

John L. Sullivan is candidate for
nomination for Congress from the
Boston district. If elected, his Gre
dentials are to bear eloquent witness to
the fact that "he can lick any man on
the face of the earth" "a man who
can quiet crowd in Madison square
as / have done," John affirms, "can
make his presence felt in Congress or
anywhere else in the world" Con-
gresham Houk, OF the second District
OF Tennessee, can't show better rec
ord for sobriety than that. But he
can fall out OF chair more times dur
ing the average number OF working
hours OF an average day in Congress
than Sullivan can, for the reason that
he gets tired oftener than John does
Moreover John would keep the blow

CLASSED PROPERLY.
Birmingham, Admission, Chattanooga
and Johnson City Manufac.
turing Centres.

A Knoxville correspondent OF the
Tribune, in urging the people of Knox
vile to vote 100000 to the Knoxville
& Northeastern railroad, recognizes
johnson City (and Justly SOY as one of
the future manufacturing towns OF the
South. He says
Strangers coming to Knoxville are
uniformly impressed with the beauty
OF our city and surroundings, its mild
genial climate, the immense natural
advantages its location gives it, and
the fair future that awaits it if all the
elements Of permanent growth were
utilized, But their equally universal
verdict is "Your town is laid out for
population Of from one to two hun
dred thousand inhabitants, but where
are the manufacturing interests to
draw and keep them here? Where
are your furnaces, iron and steel works,
and other vast industries which your
location and the proximity of raw ma
terial from mine and forest in such un-
limited quantities would warrant2"
And, judgment following verdict, these
men look, admire and pass us by, to
invest in Birmingham, Admission,
Chattanooga, Johnson City and other
places.
All of these places are growing rap
idly, and especially in the line OF iron
manufacture. Birmingham, at the
south, apparently has the lead, while
at the northeast Johnson City is in the
hands of men whose known energy,
enterprise and pluck bid fair to make
it formidable rival to Knoxville. Yet
OF all these places not one can equal
Knoxville in the number and extent of
its natural advantages as point for
the manufacture OF iron and STEEL to
say nothing of her timber, marble and
other resources. Yet the apathy of
her people threatens to relegate her to
the ranks OF the might have beens."
To-morrow's vote will largely decide
the question whether Knoxville will
reap the benefit of her enterprise in
sustaining the X. G.. G. & L. and
; Knoxville Southern roads, by securing
the construction of the Knoxville and
Northeastern, and the development of
our iron mines, large iron manufac.
turing centre here, or whether by de-
feating the proposition they will drive
to Johnson City, Chattanooga and
Birmingham the capital which stands
ready to help build up our city.
