BEET SUGAR.

Statistics show that a few years
ago the United States consumed
about 700 times as much beet sugar
as they produced. This illustrates
how great is the field for future pro-
Guction.
There has been no form of invest
ment within five years past that has
been SO profitable as beet sugar
manufacture. And in response to
this demand beet sugar factories
have been established in many parts
of the Union, notably in California
and Nebraska.
Beet sugar factories have made an
average net profit of from Is to 25
per cent. The producer makes even
more; a farmer may realize $3.50
from 40 acres of beets at cost of
$500 for production.
One of the factories in Southern
California distributed $4,000 to
the farmers during the season of
1897. New factories have been
started at Ogden, Utah; Bingham
ton, Buffalo, Watertown, Auburn
and Lyons, New York; SAndusky
and Toledo, Ohio; Richmond and
Stanton, Virginia; as well as at
other points.
Can beets averaging Is per cent
sugar be produced successfully In
Western North Carolina? Can the
Piedmont farmers average 10 tons
per acre? If these two questions
can be answered affirmatively. then
the Winston Salem Chamber of Com
merce might advantageously begin
an agitation looking toward a beet
sugar factory in the Twin-Gty.

SHOUTED FOR CUBA IN CHURCH

DIR. Broughton's Congregation Rise
and Declares for " ar.
Rev. DR.. Broughton preached his
first sermon Sunday night as pastor
Of the Third Baptist Church in
Atlanta. A press dispatch says the
edifice was filed by a throng, attracts
ed by his reputation for eloquence.
He selected Cuba for his topic. The
preacher reached his climax when he
shouted:
"This carnage in Cuba has gone on
long enough"
At these words the congregation
rose to its feet and DIR. Broughton
added:
"Let American manhood vindicate
itself.n
Shouts and cries of "We will, we
will !" and demands for war were
heard. The men sprang on the seats
and waved hats and handkerchiefs.
The minister stood dunn bfounded at
the spectacle before him and shook
hands mechanically with the shouts
ing men who pressed around him.
When the people had been suffi :
cientlv quIeted to permit his voice to
to be heard, DIR. Broughtop said:
LET US begin the work tonight by
collecting money for Cuba"
This suggestion was met with a
ready response.

Hundreds of patterns for spring

to say which are more attractive
the black novelties or the new self

one can easily see that a great deal

Inns and the high lustre soieils,
materials noted for their qniet

hundred different patterns, includ

durable and light; bayadere Spanish
appllques, which is a variety OF

the less expensive fabrics for every

Advice.

Charlotte Observer.
1.-The farmer gets more good advice
than any class of people outside of
boarding school," says Ii newspaper,
land as a rule he takes as little of it
as he pleases." The farmer does, in
deed, get good deal of good advice
and he is wise when he listens to it.
So are men of all other avocations
Good advice is not thing to be
despised. Newspaper men are sup
posed to get good deal, and they
are foolish when they resent it, if it is
well intended and Is not officious
Advice OF friends has saved many a
man from folly and error and worse.
OF course it must be from the right
source and there must be proper
motive behind it; but when it comes
thus it is not to be disregarded,
whether it relates to business affairs
or personal conduct.

More Capital i'm the South.

Baltimore American.
The latest report Of the Southern
markets and of general business con-
ditions in that section of the country
shows a satisfactory trade, and a
prospect for Improvement as the
spring comes on. The demand for
the products OF the furnaces is good,
but the chief feature of the situation
just at present is the large increase
in the amount of capital that is
being invested in the manufactures OF
textile goods. Nor is all the capital
coming from the North. On the
contrary, the South itself seems to
be furnishing the bulk of it, and this
can be taken not only as a proof of
the increase of the wealth of that
section, but also of the confidence of
it's own capitalists in it's further de-
velol ment and increased prosperity.

1T isn't often that a politician,
while in favor, voluntarily retires
from public life. Hence the state
ment becomes conspicuous that Gov.
Bob Taylor will retire from politics
at the clJse of his term as Governor
of Tennessee. He says ne is tired of
political life, it's narrowing antago-
nism, its unjust accusations, it's
violent contention, etc., and because
there is no peace in it for him and
because he believes he can have more
happiness in the private walks of life.
Most politicians, however, seem to
be willing to endure the unpleasant
phases of public life SO long as fat
Office is within easy grasp. So that
the position taken by Governor
Taylor becomes rather unique.

THE SOUrH'S GROWTH
The Beginning of Great Industrial
Development.

Development.
Atlanta Constitution.
In the decade extending from 1880
to 1890 the south's property in
creased in value over 81 100000, 900;
but when the present decade expires
it will be found that the property of
this section has gained in value
something considerably in excess OF
this sum.
One of the most conservative of
southern newspapers is the Washing
ton Post. In speaking of the south's
phenomenal development in recent
years the Washington Post makes
this observation:
"While many northern dollars
have been invested in southern enter
prises, it is admitted that by far the
greater part of the increased wealth
is due to southern intelligence and
energy.
Yet this is only the beginning. The
iron area of the south, 700 miles in
length and 200 in width, paralleled
by belts of coal and limestone, is
only worked in it's vestibule, as it
were. In q few years hundreds of
shops, whose fires will be fed from
the coal at the doors, will surround
every present one. We are assured
that Alabama is now laying down
iron in England at prices with which
the English producers say they can
not'compete at any profit. One-half
of all the standing timber of the
country is in the south. Much of it
is not suited to the making of the
best furniture, but all has it's uses,
and will add enormously to the
activity and wealth of that section.
1t is no small matter, too, that the
southern products of the soil are no
longer limited to cotton, rice, tobac
CO, sugar and sweet potatoes, but
include besides early vegetables and
corn, everything that is not pro
hibited by the climate. In recent
years experiments in fruits and other
profitable products of farming have
led to enterprises that must swell the
riches OF the land. 1t is not so many
years since the south bought all it's
meat and it's corn in the north, and
the carrying of these, for which vast
sums were paid by the impoverished
people, was the main support of lines
of steamers. The romantic south is
passing. So is the impoverished
SOUTH"
The editorial from viii the fore
going paragraph is extracted coDsti
tutes a valuable contribution to the
literature of the present industrial
crisis in the United States.

Women Artists in New York.

New York Tribune.
The women artists, whom the three
prominent art institutions of New
York are turning out yearly, are
taking their places among illustra-
tors and colorists of the day and
winning acknowledgements of their
ability. In some branches their
work is liked even better than that of
men, as the touch is lighter. But
the charge of a lack of humor in the
feminine mind is made here as else
where. A woman cartoonist or
caricaturist has, so far, not ap.
peared. 1t has been suggested that
a certain coarseness necessary in the
treatment of such pictures may have
been the reason women have not
tried to acquire the knack of making
them,

THE RUSSELL COLLAR.

1t appears that Russell has hard
time trying to find subjects of favor
itism who will repay him by absolute
servility to his imperial will. After
having supplanted the Wilson's by
autocratic command and, as he
thought, constituted himself the
Railroad Commission, he finds that
the man intended as a mere figure
head as Chairman, has failed to be
as suppliant tool as was intended
and is running counter to the wishes
of His Highness in reference to the
question of leasing the Atlantic &
North Carolina railroad. Russell
can't stand anything of this sort and
if the Supreme Court OF the United
States should chance to approve the
removal of the Wilson's, Mr.. Caldwell
may look for the decapitaticn of his
official head, since such a decision by
the highest Court would virtually
confirm the declaration of the State
Supreme Court that the actions of
the Governor in this particular are
not renewable by the Courts.
Russell is not the kind of man to
let authority rust from the lack of
use, and if the conditions just men
toned should materialize Mr.. Cald
well may be confronted by the alter
native of wearing the Russell collar
or packing his grip, without much
time for consideration. 1t is to be
hoped, however. that the Supreme
Court win knock this non renewable
autocracy into a cooked hat and
thus give the occupant of the guber-
material chair a slight intimation
that he is servant and not master of
the people, and at the same time re-
storing to those entitled to them the
places upon the Railroad Commits
sion now held by usurpation.

Steps to Organic, Society for Pre-
vention of Cruelty TO Animals.
Editors Sentinel.
For centuries the poor dumb ami
mails have Teen the subjects of shame
full quackery and cruelty and it is
time for civilization to put stop to
some of the cruelty now practiced
even by people who claim to be
charitable and humane.
Nature, with it's perfection and
beauty has provided food and liberty
for our dumb friends and when man
takes the liberty to take their liberty
from them and make slaves of them
we are responsible for their inhumane
treatment. There are many horses
being forced to work day after day,
enduring pain of some kind, which
should at least be stopped from work
or killed if there is no hope of recov-
cry.
For illustration of how barbarous
or worse than barbarous some peo-
pie are to their most faithful friend
(the horsel l will give an incident
that came under my own observa-
ton.
l was called to see horse that had
a part of his hoof torn from the bone
and was suffering SO much pain that
after dressing the wound L put my
shoulder under the animals hip and
helped him to comfortable stall a
few yards away and left to return on
the second day to find that the
| owner who lived oyer twenty miles
away had forced the animal to walk
| all of this distance on three limbs.
Such treatment as this is barharous
| and should receive the condemnation
| of all humane people and especially
| those who have the least bit OF
sympathy for the feeling of our dumb
| friends.
Not from selfish motives have ]
written this, but by request of several
of our best citizens who wish me to
aid in organizing Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
and Children. stand ready to give
the remainder of my life to such 6

maneuvres are the most emphaticin

maneuvres are the most emphatic in
this direction
For instance, on the part OF Spain,
negotiations for additional warships,
landing more troops at Havana, the
war whoops Of the Spanish popula-
ton of Havana, the intimation of a
desire for Consul Lees recall and the
suggestion that it is distasteful to
Spain to have American relief for the
reconcentrados conveyed to Cuba by
vessels of fighting capacity.
On the part OF the United States,
the persistent preparations for plac-
ing the army and navy on war
footing, the positive refusal to yield
to SPANS pleasure by either recall
ing Lee or changing the mode of
conveying supplies to the starving
Cubans, the introduction in Congress
of bill placing fifty million dollars
at the disposal of the President for
national defense and the unanimity
with which the bill was passed Great
ing two additional artillery regi-
J ments.
We say that such occurrences, to
put it in a mild form, do not furnish
clear sign that amicable relations
are sure to continue indefinitely be-
tween the two countries. Indeed, the
relations are strained and may
reach the breaking point at any
| time.
1t may be that Spain has placed a
false construction upon the patience
| and forbearance and conservatism OF
this country and it's desire to avoid
the horrors of war if compatible with
dignity and honor. 1t SO, Spain will
realize, at fearful cost to herself, the
| grevious error she has made when
the dogs of war are let loose. When
a rupture has been forced, Spain will
find the present policy supplanted by
zeal and courage and determination
and there will be no let up until
Spain has been severely punished
and American honor has been vindi-
| Gated.

tendrils of which hung downward,
containing electric lights. In the
midst of the foliage were letters
formed from electric lights spelling
the word "Comus." The orchestra
was placed in sort of recess at the
right side. After the first tableau
the maskers formed the grand march,
and then were permitted to go in
battalions of fifty at a time, to seek
their partners for the first three or
four dances, which, according to
custom, were reserved for the mask
ers."
On Mardi Gras day promiscuous
Incorporating is permitted and in
various parts of the city people of
almost all sizes are attired in gro
tesque and fanciful costumes and
many ludicrous scenes are presented.
A striking feature of the Carnival
parades is the elegance of the cos
tunes worn by the participants.
Often one associates with street
pagsantry vari-colored calico, cam
brio, bunting, etc but here fine silks,
satins and velvets, sometimes be-
decked with radiant jewels, are the
rule. In keeping with the costumes
is the ornamentation of the floats,
or moving tableaux.
With the dawning of Ash Wednes-
day the Carnival is at an end, and
soon thereafter preparations are
entered upon for the celebration OF
the next year. The parades each
year are different and require much
care and thought and time to make
ready. 1t is said that each parade
costs from twelve to eighteen thous-
and dollars and the cost of a Rex
parade one year reached the sum Of
twenty eight thousand dollars. This
will give some idea of the immense
expense attendant upon the great
annual Carnival.
The hospitality of the people Of
New Orleans is proyerbial and one is
impressed by the courtesy and con
sideration for strangers everywhere
manifest. With energy and courage
that is admirable the citizens are
putting forth strong efforts to re
trieve the losses to business interests
caused by the yellow fever scourge OIL
last Fall.

Should conditions render peace in

we will have war regardless of the
cost. Against the maintenance of
our national honor cost either in
treasure or in men will not be allowed
to weigh. But where honor is com
pati5le with peace, conservative

of war-not only the cost in blood,
