A Norel Temnernee Moremcnf.

a temperance movement has
started in the Roman Catholic
church which bids fair to assume
rather scary proportions. In sever
al places the young women belong
to various benevolent and other So
cities in the church have pledged
themselves not to associate with or
countenauco in any manner a young
man who is known to drink intoxi-
eating liquors. The worst or best
of it is that the girls are keeping
their pledge and the boys around
those localities are beginning to
find them very lonesome. If the
girls stand their ground, and if the
movement spreads, here will be a
mightier agency for the promotion
of temperance than even school lee
lures on the effects of alcohol on the
human stomach.

As They Will.

Negroes can remove all their dis
abilities and build up for themselves
a society of their own that shall be
universally respected. There is a
way to do it. That way is to get
money. If the negroes of South
Carolina had been heavy taxpayers,
if they had been intelligent and re
spOnsible, they would not be max
ing the complaints OF discrimination
against their race that they now in
dulge in. The dislike to the social
equality of the negro in the south
certainly does not extend to the
point of wishing to keep him a poor
begger. On the contrary, the most
Tabid negrophobe would be glad to
see every one of the race earning a
good living and even laying up
money. 1t is the improvidence and
idIeness and ignorance of the ne
groes themselves that is their own
worst enemy. Let them enter the
fight for financial success in such
channels as are already open to
them. When the stage arrives in
the life of a negro that he will put
a dollar in the savings bank rather
than spend it for red necktie or a
roast chicken, that man is taking
the identical steps to make himself
respected that the white man took
before him. When black makes
itself as good as white in financial
circles, that fact will be quickly
recognized in political circles.

An Abiding Faith.

The Register has an abiding faith
in the future of this town. 1t has
watched each step it has taken in
improvement and in industrial pur-
suits. When we first came to this
town away back in the ifties, the
town did not have to exceed three
hundred in population; and the in
crease it has made in buildings and
population has been since the close
of the war; and there is hardly a
day passes but what our population
increases. The town has been built
up with fine and handsome brick
buildings; and among the residences
you will End many that would be a
credit to any city. OF course we
have not the manufacturing indus
tries We should have, but they will
all come in time. We have a popu-
lation of about 5000 of as good peo-
pie as can be found in any town on
earth. All we have to do now, is
for all of US to pull together to make
this town what it should have been
years ago-the best town in the
Kanawha Valley. We have the
capital in this town to put this
place on the road to activity and
prosperity, by building manufac-
turing establishments and giving
encouragement to manufacturers
who desire to locate among us.
Help the town along.

Our Mineral Products,

The total value of the metallic
minerals produced in the United
States during 1894, according to the
estimates of the Engineering and
Mining Journal, was about 1884,
600, 700, while the non-metallic pro-
ducts were valued at over s359, OOO,-
600. The total gross value of the

This is s62, 534,l12 less than the to-
tai value of the mineral product of
1893, and represents a decrease of
about ten per cent. Much of this
falling off is due to a decline in pri-
ces as in several branchesof mineral
production there was an actual in
crease in the amount.
OF the metallic minerals nearly
s72,OOO,OOO was in pig iron, $780,
7G1 600 in gold, s33 $40, 4S9 in cop
per and s31, 400, 531 in silver. The
lead was worth SO 585,O4s and the
zinc So. 2O9,88 The great bulk of
the value of the non-metallic miner
ais is represented by coal, s184,7OO,-
