ting was lively at 1oto 8 in McCoy's
favor. ss,.
It was very pretty fight, but was
almost entirely In favor Of the younger
man. Mccoy won and won easily. He
had the fight in his hands and at any
one Of half : dozen palpable opportunl-
ties he could have administered q de-
cisive and knockout blow. But again
and again he failed to follow up his id
vantage and Choynski was considered
lucky to be. able to stay the 30 rounds.

Joe was apparently going under the
furious rain Of McCoy's blows, but was
saved by tho gong. After this brief
respite he rallied and fought ont his up

tween skilled and unsiAled labor. what
wonder is Il that the South, with Its raw
cotton, is poor, while New England, with
it's manufactured cotton fabrics, Is rich2
Mr. Walker by no means advocated part
nership between banks and manufacturers;
but what he did advocate was this that an
intelligent board of bank directors was
the best qualihed to pass upon the credits
which were necessary for the carrying on
OF manufactures. They had that inside
knowledge as to when money could be
used, and when IL would be inadvlsable to
do so. In turn, the manufacturers furnish
stock certificates, the value of which are
known to the bankers and which could be
used freely for collateral AZ an evidence
of how banks and manufactures may be
united in purpose, while separate in man
agement, and each protecting its own in
terest, the cases OF Monroe. Of Elberton
and of other towns in Georgia were cited
II must be admitted that Mr.. Walker, In
this presentation, has made one of the
strongest arguments yet in favor OF local
manufacturer
IT has been a short sighted policy by
which most bankers have hitherto kept
aloof from institutions which build up the
country, and regard themselves more as
enemies than as friends to Industrial yer-
lures. While Mr.. Walkers argument
pointed to a good understanding between
cotton mills and banks in the smaller
cities, every word which he spoke is equal
ly applicable to our large centers Of trade.
One of the best services for instance
which the bankers Of Atlanta could render
the city would be to become thoroughly
acquainted with all of the manufacturing
interests in our midst, for the purpose Of
Ijudiciously doing business with them.
Many an institution has had to 20 10 the
wall for the want OF timely help, which,
II il had but continued. would have proven
to be a good customer OF the banks. The
office of banker is ono Of the most respon-
sible in the commercial world The true
banker Is the man who mas the sense and
the discretion to 80 out ard Decoine ac-
Quaintod, and who has the ability to render
help wherever it is needcd Upon safe
terms.
1t Is &c be hoped that the speech Of Mr..
Walker which the Constitution takes
great pleasure in presenting in full, Will
be read by every banker in the State and
that his advice will bear good fruit.

The address OF Hon. B. S, Walker. be
fore the Georgia Bankers association. at
their recent convention held at Warm
Springs, has attracted widespread atten-
tion.
MIR. Walker, who is president of the
Monroe cotton mills, and vice president
Of the Bank of Monroe. took for his sub
ject the relation of banks TO cotton mills,
and in the discussion Of 1t developed re-
markable theory. He declared that 1t was
the interest Of every bank to encourage
manufactures. and seized upon cotton
mills simply because cotton was the nat
ural subject OF manufacture IN our south
ern country. He pictured In graphic
words the continuous labor by which the
southern people produced the raw ma
teriaI. for which they got the minimum Of
profit, and then shipped II away to be
manufactured abroad and brought back
