COTTON maSurAcruRE IN THE SOUTH.

~,<,~-r<,,, ,r.xurAcrURE IN THE SOUTH.
Afow years ago Mr.. Edward Atkinson made
a sneech in which he stated that the South
conld not mako cotton goods. He claimed
that the climate was too hot. that satisfactory
labor could not be procured, and that for
these and various other reasons the South
could never hope to successfully COM
pete with New England as COT
ton manufacturing centre census returns
however. show that in the last decade the
consumption of cotton by Southern mills Tor
manufacturing purposes has increased over
300 Der cent. the total last year being about
GOO 600 bales-an amount more than equal 10
tho total cotton crop in ante-oelIum days
This is indisputable proof that the South can
make cotton goods in competition not only
with New England. but the world.
OF course the organs Of protection Will
claim that this is one Of the benehcent ell
fccts Of a high tariff. and that to protection
alone is due this gratifying nourlshmeh' OF
what has been, up TO within the past quarter
of a century. an infant industry OF the SoutD'
but exactly the reverse is the truth.
Protection in reality has always acted as a
great drawback in the South in the matter OF
cotton manufacturing. Tor, possessing every
natural facility for this industry and being
tho home Of the cotton plant. there
by enabling her to save the freight
on the transportation OF tho raw ma
terial for thousands Of miles. the South
can easily in a fair fight overcome all rivalry.
Protection. by enabling Old England 20 build
factories and ct them with the necessary
machinery cheaper than can be done IN th's
country, has made Europe successful com
petitor with the South. while by shutting out
from her the markets of tho world-thereby
causing an artificial price for cotton goods
New England has likewise been enabled TO
enter the lists against'her. Without these e1-
traneous aids of protection. therefore, the
South could easily become the mistress OF
cotton manufacture il the world.
What a source Of wealth this would be TO
the South is incalculable. and because she
would. without protection. so far outstrip
New England and command the worids
markets for cotton goods. is the nam
reason why that incubus has been put upon
her great staple. This is another and most
potent reason why the cotton States
should be unanimous in opposition
10 the protective system, which
drains them Of millions of dollars each year
that Old and New England may both grow
rich at their expense. And here is also another
evidence of the fact that Southern cotton
planters can accomplish far more for their
material interests by relying upon the Demo
cratic ant-protective party than upon any
third or Alliance party which would only
tend to strengthen the hands Of the monopo-
lists.
