Mr.: r. H. Edwards, formerly OF
the Manufacturers Record, which
is brought to its present proml-
nence as an exponent of Southern
interests, writes to a(friend that
the wonderful way in which the
South has met the present trouble,
as compared with all other sections
has attracted universal attention,
and the result will be, when the
panic is over, such a flow of capi-
tai in this section as we have
never seen before. The accumulated
wealth of the North, which must
find field for investment, dis
couraged by the many failures
throughout the West and the
Northwest, will be turned into the
South by millions. 1t will go into
cotton mills, into iron works into
diversified industries, into an
neral and !imbered lands, and into
gold mining, for there is an
abundance of gold in the South
when the mining is rightly man
aged. Moreover, there will be q
large immigration from the West
of the class Of people which the
South needs-small farmers whe
have sayed up a little money
skilled mechanics and others"

White caps have organized
nearlyevery county in Mississippi,
and have posted notices on gins
prohibiting their owners from
ginning cotton until the price shall
reach 10 cents per pound. In
several cases in which these
warnings were disregarded the gins
were burned, and Governor Stone
has been called upon forprotection
by gin owners all over that State.

Many men think that news.
paper men are persistent dunners
By way of comparison let us sup,
pose that farmer raises 1,00C
bushels of wheat a year and sells
this to 1000 persons in all parts
of the country, a great portion OF
them saying. II will hand you a
dollar in short time" The farmer
does not want to be small and says
all right. Soon this 1000 bushels
are gone, but he has nothing to
show for it, and ne then realizes
he has fooled away his whole crop,
and its value to him is due in a
thousand little driblets, conse-
quently he is seriously embarrass-
ed in his business, because his
debtors, each owing him'a dollar,
treat it as a small matter and
think it would not help much. Con-
tinue this kind of business year in
and year out, as the publisher does
how long would he stand it2 A
moments thought will convince
any one that a publisher has
cause for persistent dunning.
"Men or women with no busi-

leeches, sucking the blood of

The Modern viking Ship.

Nine centuries ago Lief Erickson. or
Lief the Lucky" found his way. 1t is
claimed, to the shores of America in
one of the sea-skimming dragons, and
skirted along our New England coast
long before Columbus crossed the At
lantic in his carayels; and the stone
tower at Newport, the age of which no
one seems to know. is thought by
many to have been built by the vi
kings crew.
Prominent Norwegians interested in
the debate as to whether Erickson
really did make this voyage, have pa
triotically contributed money to have
ship built in all respects similar to
the one found at Goksta She is sent
across the ocean on a visit to America
and the Worlds Fair as part of Nor
ways exhibit. She is II feet long and
16 feet wide. Her rudder is on the
starboara or "steerboard" side. and
she flies the ancient and dreaded red
flag and raven of the pirates of old.
She has thirty oars, worked by relays
OF rowers from crew of eighty picked
Norwegian sailors, who brought her
over the sea with sail and oar just as
their forefathers came so long ago,
amid icebergs and storms.
There is one difference, however;
for instead of landing on Il rock bound
coast Inhabited by savage Indians.
they are welcomed by new nation.
great and free. in whose harbors is
many an iron war-ship greater and
more terrible than the viking ever
dreamt of. But these men-of-war did
not meet to destroy one another in
battle, but for the purpose of cele ebrat-
ing the coming of that other great
sea-rover and discoverer. Columbus.
When the Palisades of the Hudson
looked down upon the seemingly an
tique carayels. themselves modern be-
side the viking ship, perhaps the old
rocks sleepily wondered at the absence
of the good ship Half Moon"-the
craft of their old friend Hendrix Hud-
son; for to them it seemed that the
old Dutch vessel might well have
