SENATOR TILLMAN ON COTTON.
He Claims That the Southern Mills
Can Make As Fine Goods As the
Northern.

He Claims That the Southern Mills
Can Make AS Fine Goods As the
Northern.
From New York Commercial Advertiser.
Concord, N H., Sept S.-Senator Benja-
min r. Tillman of South Carolina, who is
touring this state, has made an inspection
of some of the big cotton mills in Man
chester. His state Is one of the principal
competitors of the New England mills.
Mr.. Tillman says of the industry:
Il would say with regard to the asser-
ton that only cheap goods can be made in
the South, that we can made as fine a
grade of goods in South Carolina as can be
made anywhere. There are only four
months i'll the year that we are Obliged to
close the windows of Southern cotton mills.
while with the Northern mills there are but
four months that they can be kept open.
The result Is that our operatives for eight
months in the year. breathe pure air, while
those of the North for an equal period are
living in an atmosphere artihcialy heated,
close, unnatural and enervating Why
shouldn't We have superior workmen, and
if superior workmen, why not superior
work? Our machinery is modern, while
that of the North is obsolete. Our opera
tives own their own homes, while yours
are crowded into tenement houses. Can
there be any comparison between faborers
thus situated? Another thing: the purchas-
ing power of your dollar is growing less,
while ours is growing greater. Our labor
ers are satisfied, yours are not Ours are
growing rich while yours are growing
poor. And there can be but one outcome
from all this: your people must sink to
the level of European labor or your mills
must go South. You Northern people have
had monopoly of the cotton business for
years You must now seek something else
We are going to beat you at ii. We have
all the natural advantages and you
haven't any. You have leSislated against
everybody and everything to protect your
cotton mills, but you cannot legislate God
out Of existence, nor suspend the opera
tons of natures beneflcent laws. Already
the shrewdest capitalists of the North
have stopped investing in Northern cotton
mill stocks, and are sending their money
South"

London Wood Pavcments.
From Chambers Journal.

Various kinds of woods from all parts
of the world have been tried in London.
and of late years the Tasmanian "stringv
bark a species of the Eucalypti, has
proved TO be the most enduring, and with
out the glass-llke surface of some other
hard woods. The stringy bark which
grows all over Tasmania, has a rougher
surface than the blue gum, thereby giving
in greasy weather a better foothold for
man and beast. il Is in the south of the
Island of Tasmania that the chief supply
of timber is obtained the forests coming
down almost to the waters edge, thus
making the cost and difficulty of trans
port very small; in fact, at some of the
mills vessels of 5000 tons could partly load
alongside the pier, and complete their
loading by barges while lying in a per-
fectly secure anchorage.

AS an evidence that the great cat

fact that the Ogalalla Land and Cat

it's range cattle business, owing to
the encroachments of small ranch
