Northern mina Moving South.

The MORNING News few DAYS ago re-
ferred to the action of the Dwight Manu-
featuring Company, Of Chicopee, Mass,
in petitioning for permission to increase
its capital stock in order to engage in cot
ton manufacturing in the south, and com
mented on the fact as showing that the
time was fast approaching when the
south would manufacture the most of the
cotton she produces. The Boston Journal
of Commerce furnishes some interesting
facts and conclusions in connection with
the matter. The facts go to show that
the south's advantages as a cotton manu-
featuring center are recognized, and the
Journals conclusions are that northern
mill men will not wait until southern
men have seized upon those advantages,
but will take hold themselves
and put northern money into
southern mills. The Dwight COM
pany has placed itself at the trout in a
procession that is going southwark to
make investments in textile mills, land it
will not be long, says the Journal, before
we hear of other mills in the same pro
cession, because sit is unquestionably the
the fact, owing to natural conditions, that
coarse goods can be made cheaper in the
south" than in New England. 1T has
been evident for some time TO some of our
shrewd and far-seeing cotton manufac-
turers that sooner or later this class of
goods would have to be relegated to our
southern mills.n And many of the New
England mills have worked onto finer
goods in anticipation Of the change.
1t is an open question if fine goods, as
well as coarse ones, cannot be more profit
ably manufactured in the south than in
New England. But the south can very
well afford to hold the matter of the
manufacture of fine goo1s in abcyance
until the coarse goods factories are cstab-
lished the other factories will follow,
almost of their own accord.
The commercial standing of the Dwight
company, which is leading this south
ward march of New England mills, and
its scope of business, are matters of in
terest. Its capital is now 81 POO. 900 and it
desires TO add S50O0OO to the stock Its
shares are of a par value of $500. and are
quoted at $500, with few Offering. 1t ex-
ports goods to Turkey South America.
Africa and China, besides having an i'm
mense home trade. Forty per cent. of its
wares are coarse cloths, so that the iuten-
ton is TO transfer nearly half of its bust
ness to the south in the near future.
II Georgia, with unsurpassed advan-
tages, fails to secure a large share Of the
northern money that is seeking and will
seek investment in southern mills, it will
be Georgia S own fault 1t will take work
to induce the mills to come here-the
New England people are not pulling up
stakes and stumbling over each other to
get soath-out timely and inelliGent
work viii not be without its reward.

1t is respectfully suggested to the Hon.
M. d. Harter, of Ohio, that instead of
substituting the word globe" for dol
lar on his new non-legal tender free
coinage money, he substitute either the
word bone or case" If the word
"globe" were used on the proposed money
it would require too much thought on the
part Of the owners thereof to remember
the nominal value of the coin, whereas a
large number of people already know
what "bOne" or a case" is.

are nothing short OF alarming. An oncial
report says he has typhoid fever, and an
unofficial report says he is in dying condi-

body connected with its passage The

Uttered the Famous Remark.
Flanagan of Texas is name that
always brings up famous question.
"What are we here for?" Whether in
New York, Chicago or San Francisco,
that name on the hotel register always
brings a crowd of people to see the man
who originated one of the most famous
phrases in American politics. The SEN
tence has gone into history and become
a part of it. 1t was one of the memora-
BILE incidents of one of the most memo
rable conventions that ever assembled
in America-the Chicago national Re-
publican convention which defeated
Grant and nominated Garfield. Ever
since then somebody in every conven-
ton, large or small, has arisen to ask,
What are we here for?" Web Flana-
gan of Henderson, Rusk county, Tex,
is the man who said it first of all. To
writer for the Galveston News Flana
gan told the story of the phrase. This
is the way he told it:
"It was in Chicago i'll 1880. l was a
member from Texas in the national con-
vention. When the committee OH plat

offices, and, sir, what are we here for
but for the offices?' Immediately the
delegates and the galleries yelled. They
shouted till they were hoarse, and it
was several minutes before the chairman
was finally able to restore order. The
next day the incident was in all of the
papers, and from then till now it has
been travelling around the earth. l Ihave

a Polish Name That Sounds a Good Deal
Like Two Sneezes.

A subscriber to the Milwaukee Sen
tinel is curious to know the correct pro-
nunciation of the Polish name Brzczen-
ski. He came across it in an account of
an affray which took place ON Sobieski
street, that city, and evinced desire
to master its pronunciation. On investi
CATION it was found that the name, if
really spelled as indicated, must be
pronounced Bsh- tchinsbi, the ''rz" be-
ing sounded about as the English "sh,"
and the "cz'' as the ''tch'' in Glitch
ing"
Some of the Poles in Milwaukee are
in favor of a reform i'll the spelling of
their names. As matter of fact, the let
tiers in the Polish alphabet do not repre-
sent the same sounds as the letters in
the Latin or English alphabet. For in
stance, the Polish W is equivalent to the
English v, and the S sometimes assumes
the sound of sh, the that of the Eng
lish in azure. The Polish tongue con-
tains a great many more sounds than
the old Latin did, and in order to ex-
press the additional sounds i'll Latin
characters it was found necessary to
combine different consonants. The re-
suit is that person familiar only with
the English language regards the Polish
names as jawbreakers and despairs over
their pronunciation.
A reform in the spelling of Polish
names similar to the reform adopted by
Mime. Modjeska il the spelling of her
name would be great relief to hun
dreds of people. Modjeska's name in
Polish is spelled Modrzcjewska, in a
manner i'll which no Englishman or
American living would be able to pro-
nounce it. Chervinski would sound the
same way as CzerwinsNi, only everybody
would be able to read it.
