WHY THE SOUTH
WILL LEAD.
Labor Is Cheaper and Her Fields
Meri tusttJIe.

Atlanta Cvrsti:utt
The immense iron industries OF
the North are IN trouble, aud ;hei,
only way gu, of IL Is J" sh,l their
base of operations /" the South.
In the Southern fields the supply
of iron and coal is ineAhaustib!e. |,
is easily mined. Their, the labor
situation is highly advantageous.
A Northern correspondent who
recently visited North Alabama and
East Tennessee, when asked the
cause OF the s,orPage Of twenty
iron iurnare- in Pennsylvania and
OHIO SAID that i, vas caused. hy the
difference ot wages lA Northern and
Southern furnaces. lie found III
Birmlnrham thai the. average wage
was SLIGO ler day. TIE best men
received So, while the unskiiied ne
Hgroes received so cet'ls pr day.
Millions Of negroes, used to hard la
Dor, are willing to work tor the
same wages III the furnaces that
they get IN the fields. In the North
ern furnaces 5000 of Carnc9ie's
workmen average So per day, pud-
oilers So, while unskiIl.d Hunga,i.
ans get $3.50. With tins d~.scret.
ancy in wages the Northern furnace
owners caunot compete with those
in the South, and they will have TO
shift their plants. In the matter OF
charcoal non, too, this correspond
ent makes the point that III the
North lronmakers have 10 lav 90
cents per cord for cutting wood.
while in Tennessee, Georgia aud
Alabama wood is chopped at trou.
80 TO 50 cen,s per cord.
But other large industries in the
North are also having trouble with
labor. Northern labor is discon
tented, always ready % strike. aud
at timer it threatens violence. South
cru labor is coutenled, opposed TO
strikes, and its relations with capita.
are always amicable.
Que does lot have to ponder very
long over the situation to come t.
the conclusion that the presence il,
ahe South Of millions Of negroes Will
have an important bearing upon the
rapid building up of our industries.
In the course OF time they will he
employed in certain lines Of labor,
while the whites will be found in
others. There will be- no competl.
ton between the races, and no trio.
ton. What is really needed In thi.
section is not fewer blacks, bu'
more whites. II the course of a
few years, with a largely preponder.
ant white population, the blacks vii
be no more of q disturbing elemen,
here than they are now in the North
ern States.
From every possible point o
view the South is the uuost invit.n.
field under the sun for capital, immi
grafton and enterprise. The fact:
speak for themselves.

A Night of Horror.

Che Egypt coal mine, near Egypt
Station. n. c., is the only coal mine in
North Carolina, and has usually 40 0labor-
.rs employed iu it. The pit is 430 feet
deep, and there is only one cage used to
draw out the men, During one after
noun this cage was caught by slight
cave in about midway between the top
and lotion of the shaft. thus rendering
useless the only means by which the
lahore,s coald get out.
At frst nobody knew what to do.
Mothers. -ives, and children Of the i'm
prisoned men gathered about the mine
and their cries Of agony could be heard
mile away. 1t was known that the
water rose very rapidly in the rnine, and
with the machinery blocked there was
no possible way of pumping it out. The
miners would therefore drown if not
rescued soon. No voice could penetrate
the depths. and no sound could be heard
from below.
Night came on, but there was no pros
pect of rescue. At last the president of
the coal mine company got some men to
work, and throughout the long hours
while they tried to loosen the machinery
mothers walked up and down weeping,
with babies in their arms.
Midnight came but nobody thought of
sleeping. just before daybreak some
men ere lowered down to the fastened
cage and cut hole in it. The glad It'd
ings were sent up that the men were all
alive. Soon ropes were let down, and
one by one they were pulled out ALI
were alive, but had the rescue been de-
layed few hours more all would have
been drowned. as the water in the mine
had risen four feet and would soon have
covered the head of every man. They
were all wet, cold, and half starved. One
old man said:
"We did not expect to be rescued at
all. We felt sure that the mine had
caved in at the top, and not man OF us
ever expected to be taken out of that pit
alive. We huddled close together, and
spent the time in singing and praying
We knew by the rate at which the water
was rising on us that it could only be a
matter of few hours before we should
all drown. and it required lot of talk
and persuasion to keep some of the men
from lying down in the water and
drowning before it was three feet deep
We then made bargain to stand OIL our
feet just as long as we could, and when
we could stand no longer we had agreed
| to all lie down in the water at the same
time and die. It was an awful tins,
/ and / think we all suffered the horrors
] Of hundred deaths.

A TRIP
Through Eastern Cumberland
ane Northern Sampson.

Especial Correspondent.
FAYETTEVILLE, n. c.,
January 21st, 1891.
Mr.. EDITOR: On list Friday morn
ing, in company with a friend, the
writer left this place on a trip
through Eastern Cumberland and
Northern Samps. n. On the way We
found the farmers busy plowing and
repairing their fences, all of which
goes to show that the farmers are
more determined than ever to make
success of farming. Most every
farmers house we passed we found
from ten to fifty bags of cotton in
their yards and this shows that they
are out Of debt.
After long and weary ride through
the rain we arrived at the home of
that clever gentleman, Mr.. George
w Wtlliams, of Newton Grove, where
we spent the night, and very plea
SAINT one too.
NeAt day we visited Newton
Grove, where we find everything in
a prosperous condition. The mes-
chants at that place have Il good
trade, and if they had railroad
there it would be one Of the fore
most towns in this country. We
think that the farmers and business
men of that section should hold a
meeting and take some steps towards
getting a railroad through that Sec
ton.
That night we returned to Mr..
Williams, where we attended very
enjoyable dance given by the young
people of that place. The music,
which was very good, was furnished
by the string band. The music rem
dered by Miss Sallie Sneed, on the
violin, was as good as we ever heard
Sunday we visited the Salem Sec
tion of Sampson county, and find
the school at that place in prosper
Gus condition; we also find a large
building in course of erection there
for the accommodation of pupils.
The main building is to be eighty
five feet by forty Ieet, two stories
high, and there is to be a boarding
house added to the main building
4Ox35 feet. Salem is destined to be-
come one of the best institutions of
learning in the State.
Sunday night was spent with our
good friend, Mr.. G. H. Williams, OF
Dismal, where we had the pleasure
of meeting the Music and Art teach
ers Of Salem High School
After long ride, Monday night
finds us again in the old historic
town of Fayetteville.
