SOUTHERN MANUFACTURERS.1
Proving Formidable Competitors to
Those in New England.

The New England manufacturers are
beginning to realize that their most
formidable competition is soon to be
of domestic instead of a foreign ma
ture. For several years the manufac-
turers of the South have been increasing
a a remarkable rate, and they possess
certain local advantages which do not
exist in any other part of the country.
The single fact that they have the raw
material in abundance right at their
doors is great thing for them; and
to this is to be added ample water pow
er, plenty of cheap labor, and other de-
cidedly favorable conditions. 1t has
already been demonstrated that the
Southern mills can produce the COM
mon grades of cotton goods at a cost
which Is impossible in New England,
and it is hardly to be doubted that they
will in the near future secure a monop-
oily of such products. Several of the
New England factories have quit MAX
ing the coarser cotton fabrics, and 9TH
ers are likely to follow their example,
for the simple reason that they cannot
meet this competition which has been
developed in a section where until
comparatively recent time there were
no manufacturing industries of any i'm
portance and no apparent comprehen-
sion of the fine opportunities in that
respect.
1t is easy to understand that this
shifting of ordinary cotton manufac-
lures to the South will compel the East
to turn it's attention mainly to the pro-
dUction of a higher class Of goods.
That is the only way in which the New
England manufacturer can continue to
do business proitably. They cannot
get tariff protection against competi-
tion in their own country, and their only
alternative will be to surrender to it SO
far as cheap print cloth and similar
staples are concerned, and look for
profits in some other direction. For
tunately, with the means at their COM
mand in the way of skilled labor and i'm
proved machinery, they can produce
muslins, cambrics, plaids, ginghams
and fancy cotton goods which have
hitherto been imported from England,
France and Germany and they will have
to depend upon sucn things in a large
measure hereafter. The benefits that
the South will derive from her ability
to manufacture certain kinds of cotton
fabrics at a lower cost than they can be
produced elsewhere cannot fail to bring
her a degree Of prosperity that she has
never known before. When she ceases
to ship her cotton in a raw state and
makes cloth of it in her own mills, it
will bring her a remunerative price, and
all her business interests will be invig
Grated and extended Therein lies her
best chance of future welfare and prog
ress, and surely she has sufficient intelli-
sence and enterprise to make the most
OF it.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

attracted his attention. He was not

would not consent to the marriage while

THE PIANO MARKET.
What Becomes of All the Second
Hand Instruments.

About 5000 pianos are now being
manufactured annually in America, and
they are practically all for home con-
sumption. Last year only $40 instru-
ments were shipped abroad. Most Of
them went to South Amerisa, but few
were sent to Germany.
We get from Europe far fewer pianos
even than we send there. There has
been an effort made among fashion
able folks to introduce here an Eng
lish make. It is a fine instrument at
home. but it won't do for Amrica, be-
cause our climate is so much dryer than
the English THAI the wood Shrinks and
waIps here ruinously.
Pianos little need protective laws. In
every case it is the same; changes of
climate affect all makes injuriously.
One famous American firm have met
the difficulty by establishing a factory
in Hamburg for the German market
Germany sends some pianos to South
America and to Australia, and alto
gether she makes as many as we do.
France and England only turn out
10000 year. The growth of the bust
ness here has been great, for in 1860
our output was only 10000. There
are about a hundred factories in and
about New York.
Pianos seem to disappear from the
world almost as mysteriously as pins,
perhaps, considering their sizes; the
fact that the streets are not blocked
with caSt-on pianos is more curious
than that the face of the earth fails
to be overlaid with pins. An ex-
perienced New York dealer says that
he has known of but three that were
cut UP for kindling wood. Yet they
often sell for little more than so much
pine would bring. One second hand
dealer says he bought six last week
for $50. 1t is the custom of most houses
to take. old instruments and allow
something for them. The deduction is
counted as almost dead loss, but it
brings trade. The old instruments are
refitted and polished up, however, and
sold again. To whom? Where do
they go? is still the question.
Well, says the dealer, ''mox of
them go; but / can't tell you why.
to Philadelphia. Perhaps it is because
there are so many boarding houses
there. Boarding houses are the chief
refuge of secondhand pianos. Then.
there Is good deal of business In
Philadelphia in selling them to coun-
try people all over the land. Men
that go into that branch of trade can
get pianos pretty cheap, for the first
class houses sometimes get so over
loaded with them that they are all
most willing to pay to have them
carted away

ANOTHER CASE OF INACCURACY.

The San Francisco "Argonaut" the
other day gave several specific exam
pies of the unreliability Of reports In the
San Francisco daily press. Two of
these were ludicrous in their blunders
and misstatements. A few days ago
the Record Union" was so rash as to
assume that the report of a speech by
lady as printed in San Francisco
as the matter was reported in the first
person and purported to be the exact
language used. Mrs. Eliza Tupper
Wilkes was reported as saying that
there is too much maternal instinct,
and it would be better if there was
much less of it in the world.
Upon the basis of the supposed cor
rectness of the report of a public meet
ing, the "Record-Union" took Mrs.
Wilkes to task 1t turns out that it
was another case of slip-shod jour
nalstic work in San Francisco, not to
say that it deserves harsher designa-
llOu. uG OIiIOli lS iOFSl
of fair play; it will do no human being
injustice knowingly. 1t therefore af-
fords it pleasure to print, as we do be-
low, the words of Mrs. Wilkes in de-
NAL of the accuracy of the report of
her remarks in the San Francisco daily
press:
Eds "Record-Union" You have
quoted me as saying that Women de-
sire the ballot to lessen maternal In
stinct"
Will you do me the justice to print
what really said? There is too much
maternal instinct in the world and too
little maternal wisdom. Mother love,
the beginning of all Altruism, of all
that is best in human society to-day,
may, by its very tenderness, be the
cause of untold harm.
1.-The mother takes her crippled child
to the surgeon; he tells her that an op-
Grafton wHl save her child. but it
means pain; it means the laceration of
the precious flesh. Unable to endure
the thought. she clasps her baby to her
breast and takes it home to lifelong de-
formity.
THE States Prison is full of men
who had loving mothers. We believe
the ballot will enlarge women's WIS.,
ion, put new strength into her influ-
ence, transform some of her instincts
into reason, and thus add TO her power
as a mother, while enlarging her in
duence as citizen.
If motherlove as an emotion ending
in Itself We're lessened. that same love
as a motive may gain power and pur-
pose. If motherhood be the supremely
good thing the sentimentalists who
write against female suffrage would
have US believe, why will this great
force not be of direct value to the
State?" ELIZA TUPPER WILKES.

in declaring for protection and pros
perity the Republican platform pro-
no1nced for that which has been a
cardinal principle with the party. There
should be no confusion concerning the
meaning Of the protective feature of the
bill OF which the candidate Of the party
was the author. The Mckinley bill did
not prescribe a high tariff, but it did
prescribe classifcations which afforded
protection to those interests and pro-
ductions that without it would not be
prosecuted in, competition with those of
foreign character. AS has been pointed
out many times, the difference between
the average tariff charges now and un-
der the Mckinley bill was only about 2
per cent, but the distinction between
the things protected by the two bills
was exceedingly great The one bill
protected by it's schedule adjustment;
the other produced revenue, and that
wasits chief purpose.
