On the morning of the 8th. of
Feb. 1894, all that was mortal Of
little James Mckeand, rested
peacefully in the arms of death
His pure and stainless spirit had
gone to join the white winged
throng in the paradise of God.
Loving hands laid wreatbs of white
Eastern Lilies on his~tittle caskct.
and the frail body was put away in
the sacred soil of Mt Olivot at
Nashville. He lived long enough
to Irvine tendrils of love around
the Goting heart of father and
mother VI no will miss him oh. 50
sorrowfully, Eut it is best as it
is. We will think OF him az the
years 90 on, and in our hearts cher
-ish the memory of his sweet pres
cnce while he lived with us. Let
is not sorrow as those who have
no hope, for he is safe in the arms
of Jesus and he will be waiting
and watching for all of us at the
beautiful gate"

The Manufacturers Record of
Baltimore says: "The mills to the

~ part of the country the ind is
trial growth Of the cotton-manu-
featuring interests of the south is
attracting attention. A special dis
patch in the last issue Of the Man
ufacturer's Record announcing Il at
the Dwight Manufacturing Compa-
ny, one of the oldest and strongest
concerns in New England, had de-
cided to increase its capital $780,
GOO in order to build new mills in
the south. shows how rapidly this
industry is tending southwark. 1t
will be remembered that last year
the Massachusetts, Mills of Lowell
applied to the legislature for per
mission to increase their capital
81, 100000, or from 81 100000 ia
$1,000 600, in order to build mills
in the south. Commenting on these
facts, the Boston journal of Com
merce says: Nov that the Dwight
Company has joined the procession
in that direction, it will not proba.
bly, be long before we hear of other
mills making similar application
as it is unquestionably the fact
owing to natural conditions, that
coarse goods can be made cheaper
in the south than here. Ithas been
evident for some time by some Of
our shrewd and fnr-sceing cotton
manufacturers that sooner or later
this class of goods would have to be
relocated to our southern mills, anu
that the mills of the north would
have to confine themselves to the
production of fine goods, where tn,
skilled labor which they possessed
could be more proftably employed
and fncncss ofproduct, rather thar
weight, was the controlling factor
1t is very well to admit that The
coarse goods must be made in thu
south, but the south is no Longer
content to manufacture the coarse
goods only. There is no reason
whatever why il should not be a,
successful in the manufacture o
the finest grades Of goods, and thu
southwark movement Of mills fo
making coarse goods will soon b,
followed by southwark move O

Victorious May Ycllin'.

1t WAS sorrowful day for Gov. Lew
elling of Kansas when lie walked the
wrath Of Statcslady Lease, and Ia still
more disastrous one when he Joined bat
tie with that militant and aggressive fe-
male. As tanner of shrew, Gov. Lew
cling is not glittcring success, and
Mary Yellin's recent victory in the
courts, is probably merely the beginning
of his woes. The great female apostle
of calamity statesm anship has run up a
black skirt ON her flag pole and says
That she Is in it to the bitter emil. Of
course she intends that the bitterness
shall be exc'usiv ly fer l.ewelling. We
yet hope that something may be done to
calm Mary Yellin' and induce her to let
up, for there is no telling what wi hap
pen when she once gets well started on
the warpath. 1t is known that she is
not very sweet on PETER. and that she
doesn't dote on Jcrre Simpson; and ii
she gets her blood ur, she may take a
notion to go through the whole bunch.
If she does, there will be a wind in

We fill to see the comfort that
the Lawrence Union gets out Of its
report of futures in the Urlte d
States for the past thirty years.
According to the figures given by
the Union which no doubt is cor
rect,''the lowest number of failures
in the past ten years occurred dur
ing Clcvcland'sad administration from
1S84-SS, and the number of fail :
ures in the year 1891, the year fol-
lowing the passage of the McKin-
Icy bill. and at a time when we had
a republican president, and both
branches of congress were republi-
can, there was nearly two thousand
more fai ures than in the year 1890,
and about two thousand more than
during the last year OF Cleveland &
administration. We take the fig.
urcs as given in the Lawrence
Union, and if they are not correct,
it is the Unions fault, and not the
Demo Gratis; but the most amusing
part of the article is, that it is to be
presrv4d and pasted up to be used
in the coming congressional cam
paign. Yes We will paste it up.
