There Appear Indications Of
Activity and Prosperity
IN ALL THE BRANCHES OF TRADE
And the South is on the Edge OF a New
Year OF Great Promise.
From the Manufacturers Record


The lst day of September is the
new years Gay of the Southern
business world This is the begin.
ming of the cotton year, and this
long established basis of reckoning
still rules. Looking hack I'D from
this point we see a year of q1et,
steady progress in the South--a
year of careful economy anu mlted
credit in all commercial operations,
but withal year of sound b islnes-
and fair profits. Despite shrink
age of nearly % per cent IN the
cotton crop, the farmers have Jared
better than during many of the big
crop years, for their crop has been
raised at less cost than ever before;
the seed has brought the highest
prices on record, and they have
raised more cotton and hogs FIR
home consumption than ever before.
Among the planters there has
been less credit and more ca>h deal
ings than ever fore-a condition
that fosters economy and insures
profit. The financial panic, which
has had it's most violent convul.
sions in the West, has had compare
lively little effect upon the South.
U nder normal conditions the South
does business upon less cash than
other sections Of the country, and
conse quently the recent stringency
has caused less inconvenience there
than elsewhere. the number of
failures, both financial and CONNER.
cial, in the South has been surpris.
ingly small, and the ratio of assets
20 Liabilities has been above the
average for the country. The man.
ner in which the South has demon
strated It's ability to stand the strain
of fl financial panic has been an obi act
lesson that cannot fail to be remem.
bered az one of the conspicuous
features of the now vanishing hard
time.
Looking forward from our pres.
ent s aadpoint on the farther edge
of the depression there appear
abundant indications of activity
aud prosperity in every branch of
business. A greater cotton crop is
beginning to move, and money is
pouring into the South for the
farmers. The country is emerging
from its frightened state, and the
wheels of industry are beginning
to turn with their accustomed &C.
tivity.
There is better feeling every.
where and business conditions are
so largely what we think they are
that this means a great deal. Res.
tora,ion of conf lence aud determi.
nation to make business better are
the only factors needed to restore
normal conditions and bring re-
turn of activity and prosperity.
The South is in a position to feel
Immediately the benefits of return.
ing prosperity, and the confidence
of the world in that section is
greater than ever before. We are
on the edge of a new year of great
prosperity in business, and the
South will have large share of the
benefits.

GODS ACRE NEGLECTED,
But Linden Avenue NJ. E. Church
Trustees Will Care for the
Old Graveyard Now.

The articles which have appeared IN
THE JERSEY CITY NEWS from time to
time in regard to The shocking conditloh
OF the old Linden Avenue M, E. Church
Cemetery in G%reenyille nave aroused the
residents in that section. and the trustees
of the church will at the next meeting
take immediate steps to place the ground
in q p~resentable condition.
SEEM OF DESoLATION.
The cemetery is at the rear or bamoer
Hall on Linden avenue, n has been
used bv the congregation ever since the
organization OF the church In lS45. Ihree
wears ago. when the new chufcn was
formulated the old church which STOOD
directly in front of the cemetery was re-
built and transformed into an amusemehs
hall. Since then, not q hand mas toucneo
the cemetery, and the sacred place mas
heen allowed to go to ruin. beautiful
headstones and monuments nave latieu
apart for want of care. and the weeds
have crown so high that q womb never
suppose that the plot was a cemetery. Ii
fact. the place has been made a dumping
ground by the residents NEARBY; 1in
cans, cinders. broken bottles ana all sotts
OF rubbish have been thrown o'el 'nS
fence continually.
The blot measures 80 by 100 feet and
over one hundred people are buried there.
Rusty iron ratings which once sur
rounded the various plots are Tying
broken and bent all over the place Small
bows are allo " ed TO roam about at VIII,
trampling over grave and chipping
pieces of marble from the once handsome
headstones.
The cemetery gate is never locked and
free access to the place can be had at all
times.
WHO Is TO BLAME?
The trustees have all along known OF
this. but they have made no effort to stop
the wilful dissertation, further than to
appoint q committee to 'look into the
matter" The committee was appointed
over a year ago, but 1t never met nor Or
ganized, It cannot nows even, be learned
who the members of the committee are.

tees. when interviewed by a reporter oil
IHEJ JERSEY CITY NEWS said he did moi
know Why the. cemetery had not been put
in order.

"to repair the place, but II never mace
