The South of Today

In order to present to the world
a full story of the South of today
the Manufacturers Record of
Baltimore will shortly issue a
special supplement covering the
industrial progress to date and
the outlook for the future. The
contributors to this issue will In
clude many of the most noted
men Of the South-men who for
years have led In it's upbuilding,
and experts who will deal broadly
with the foundation of natural re-
sources on which Southern devel-
opment rests. We believe that
this supplement will be the most
important publication ever issued
in the interest of the South's ma
terlal advancement. The aim
will be to cover as briefly but as
comprehensively as possible the
most telling facts regarding what
has been accomplished and what
the prospect for the future IS, in
order that the busy man may
grasp the whole subject without
wadlng through an undlgested
mass of embarrassing articles.
This supplement will be sent to
every subscriber to the Manufac-
turers' Record, and IN addition to
this the Southern Railway Co.,
approaching it's Importance to
the South, has purchased 10000
copies, which will be mailed to
leading business men, manufac-
turers and capitalists in the
North and West. A copy will
also be sent to every banker in
the South, and to many in other
sections.

FlOrlda's Prosperity

That Florida's prosperity is
greater than ever IN it's history
is apparent to those who are IA
lniliar with the situation.
The Savannah News, always a
friend to Florida, has this to say:
cit would be natural to sup
pose that owing to the destruc-
ton of so many of their orange
groves the people of Florida
would be rather depressed. But
such is not the case. The state,
taken as a whole, is IN a very
prosperous condition. A travel
ing salesman of one of the largest
mercantile houses in this city-a
house which does an immense
business In Florida - returned
Sunday from trip Of several
months through that state, and
reported that he had never be-
fore, except once, in his expert
ence of many years in the trade
Of Florida, sold so many goods
there. The business men have
money and they are buying liber-
ally. They are not only having
a good trade, but they are ex-
pecting times to get even better.
"The three great products of
Florida now are lumber, naval
stores and phosphate rock. For
all OF them there is very good
demand, and the prices of all
have advanced greatly within the
last few months. Florida has an
almost inexhaustible supply Of
phosphate rock, and the grade of
it lie high. The output this year
will be very large-larger, in all
proba bllity, than in any previous
year. 1t IS causing much money
to flow into the state. The pine
forests have practically not been
touched yet. They are giving
employment to many thousand
people, and making a good many
people rich.
at is a source of wonder that
these forests for naval stores pur-
poses have had so little attention
paid to them. Now, however,
turpentine farms are being
opened all over the state, and
the saw mill is keeping company
with the turpentire still,
"Florlda has no occasion to
grumble. She is having a share
of the prosperity that is being en-
joyed by the entire country. 1t
will not be long before her orange
groves, in the section in which
J the orange trees were destroyed
by the freeze, will be bearing
again. When that time comes
Florida will be in a more prosper
Gus condition than at any pre-
vious time in her history.
"And her truck farmers and
tobacco growers are not neglect
ing their interests. The amount
of vegetables sent out of the
state affords an immense amount
of traffic for the railroads, and 1t
will increase steadily with each
succeeding year. AS for the to-
bacco interest, it gives promise of
beng far more valuable than the
orange interest ever was. No,
FIoridlans have no reason to COM
plain. Their state, nOtwithstand-
lng the heavy setbacks it has
had, is advancing in wealth and
prosperity all the time. The
great increase in the amount Of
the tax returns shows that"

A Rock Rolls Down Street at Park.
ersburg,

Some of the residents of the South
Side had an experience Monday night
that they will not soon forget. To be
awakened from a sound sleep at eleven
o'clock at night by a noise not unlike
the crushing of house to pieces is not
sound conducive to peaceful slumber.
For years large rock, weighing
perhaps ten tons, has ornamented the
brow of Fort Boreman OF recent date
in began to appear somewhat unsta-
BILE in it's position and it had often
been predicted that it would soon
start down the hillside and crush some
of the houses in it's path and perhaps
kill the occupants.
On account of the rains it became
loosened from its moorings and had it
not veered to the left from it's course,
it would have probably gone through
the Tracewell house at the foot of the
hill.
AS it sped down the hillside, break
ing trees and fences as though small
pieces of wood, it made terrific noise
Many were aroused from their slumber
and qiaked with fear. AS it neared
the Tracewen house 1t veered to the
left, passed the house and brought up
at the foot of the hill in safety. 1t
was fortunate end to such an i'm
pending disaster.-Sentlnel.

Marietta Men After New Oil Terri
tOrv,

EX-Commissioner John r. Gorby,
who moved from Belle Valley to Mari
eta last fall, where he is running a
livery stable, was up last week, and
was warmly greeted by his many
friends in the old home neighborhood
and in this place. While Mr.. Gorby's
manner indicated his pleasure at meet
ing and greeting his old friends, still
it was not with an eye to pleasure that
he visited his old home and friends.
Mr.. Goroy has thought that oil in pay
ing quantities could be found in the
neighborhood, and in company with
Capt. w. S. Gracey, OF Marietta, who
represents the Boston Oil Co., took a
survey of the field. Capt .Gracey, who
is an experienced oil man, was so well
pleased with the "lay o fthe land" and
general outlook, that they decided, if
they could lease block large enough,
they would thoroughly test the terri
tory. They Immediately began the
work of taking leases, and have taken
up about 1000 acres. Mr.. Gorby in
forms us that just as soon as the 9TH
er necessary arrangements can be
made the drills will be set to work and
that several wells will be put down on
either side of the anticline that the
surface outcroppings In-.-cate as exist
ing in that territory. 1t is the almost
general rule that where gas in large
quantities exists oil is also to be found
within a radius of a few miles. We
have the gas and it would be great
good news to Mr.. Gorby's many
friends that he had been the successful
one in locating the oil. The Republi-
can Journal wishes him early and
abundant success,-Republican Jour
nal.

River Notes.

The rise in the river which seemed
to cause SO much apprehension among
a great many of the residents of the
low ground has come to a stop and the
fact that 1t has done so was glad news
to a great many. The highest point
reached was 25 feet, which 1t showed
about 10 o'clock Wednesday morning,
since which dime y 1t has remained
nearly stationary until late in the eve
ming, when 1t began falling.
The Keystone State on her down trip
Tuesday night was delayed here by
breaking a cam and did not get away
until about nine o'clock Wednesday
morning. She was rounding in at the
landing when she picked up a wire ca
bic that had been used to raft some
logs and wound it around her Wheel
getting it so tangled that 1t broke
the cam. Ti'l'iFe
The City of Plttsburg passed down
Wednesday evening with an immense
cargo and huge passenger list. 1t is
said that every state room will be oc-
cupied by round trip passengers for
New Orleans when they leave Cincin-
natl. There was a large number of
people on the landing waiting anxious
ly for the appearance of the big boat,
as when she left here a little over a
week ago she started in the night and
MANY who were anxious to see her did
Fnot get an opportunity. Quite a
number of persons from this city left
with her last evening for the trip to
New Orleans.
Today's boats are the Queen City at
1 p. m. for Pittsburg, Virginia at p.
m. for Cincinnati, Valley Belle at a.
M for Middleport.
The Lorena came down from Zanes-
vile Wednesday morning, but the
water was a little too high for her to
get through the locks and not quite
high enough for her to go over the
dam. She was delayed about twelve
..ours, getting over the dam about sew
en- o'clock Wednesday evening.
The ferryboat Mary Campbell had
the misfortune Wednesday to get a
log in her wheel and break several
paddles off.

Scio College STAYS at SciO.

The Cadiz Republican says: The
Cadiz Republican in looking over the
whole field, and after personal inter
view with each OF the Professors of
the college, and talks with number of
the Trustees, has come to the conclus-
ion that Scio College is going to stay
just where it is That it will have to
suspend for a ...e while lis admitted
by all, but the jresent is not the proper
time FOR anybody to conclude that it
has gone out of existence; not by any
means. 1t will not be moved, for that
1t cannot 'be. Some of the towns talk
ed of may start new college, with
part of the Scio faculty, but whether
that will pay or not is for the citizens
of each town to consider.

THURSDAY. MARCH 80, 1899.
High Water in West Virginia.

The Little Kanawha river Is on a
rampage and as a consequence the
lumber men are kept on the anxious
seat. AT Creston, the river has a
stage of 25 feet, while 1t shows a 2S
foot stage at this point and is still ris-
ing.
Hardman Bros. & Depue lost lumber
in the Elizabeth pool, but it was
caught again. Withers and Vandeven-
der lost three lockages at Burning
Springs, but have not recovered 1t yet.
The Nicola Lumber Co. also lost four
RATS of timber, but Pope & Sons hope
to catch them here.
The Ohio river is running out rap
idly although rise at Pittsburg is ex-
pected. No damage has yet been done
by the heavy rains except the land
slides on the o. r. r., which have been
cleared up.
At Ravenswood the heaviest rainfall
of the season occurred Tuesday morn
ing. At Spencer, Spring creek was
very high and the tracks of the r. s. &
G. road were covered TO depth of five
feet.
At Reedy it covered the railroad a
foot and the water got into a number
of residences. AT Sandyville the creek
rose rapidly and was -four feet deep
in the Sandyvllle Touring mills. All
traffic on the r. S. & G. road and the
r. & NJ. CIV road was abandoned
until the water recedes.-Sentinel.

A Plea From Duck Creek.

The traffic on the Duck Creek road
is almost entirely suspended. The
road proper has been abandoned and
the trustees have been compelled to
force roads through the farms lying
near the old roads. The only people
this, the most important road entering
Marietta, must be repaired are the
County Commissioners. If this road
is not repaired the farmers living
within two miles of Marietta will be
forced to Stanleyville for the necessi-
ties of life. 1t is hoped that the citi-
zens and wheelmen of Marietta will
join us in the cause of good roads.
