THE SUBJECT.

$500 900 900, Of which the south a.
throwing away SAC, OOO,O 900 annually 10y
her failure 10 manufacture her chief ma.
tive products"
The Eagle will not follow Mr..
Hargroye further in his purpose to
show the crying needs Of the south
for reform in the manner Of dispos-
ing Of her great staple. Suffice TO
say that to the mind Of this writer
the logic is convincing in support
of his contention that the south
cannot prosper without diversity
ing not her crops alone. but her
business. She must manufacture
TO produce a home market for di-
yersifed products. She must man
ufaciure her cotton in order TO sell
il at a profit. We will now pro-
coed to show how he proves that
the manufacture Of cotton will pay.
He goes to North and South Caro-
lima and Georgia for his proofs.
They have demonstrated it there
by doing it.
In North Carolina there are now
1856 cotton factories. They have
been building them there ever
since 1880. and each year they
have under construction more than
they ever had in any year before
This settles the question of profit
in the business. They build them
in cities and they build them in
towns and even in the country,
miles and miles away from any
town. They built seventeen sep
arate and distinct new mills in
1898. Mr.. Hargrove says that it
is now the case that towns do not
build mills, but mills build towns
The town Of Charlotte, North Car
olina, was eighteen years ago an
unimportant country town Of 1000
population, supported by agricul.
ture. II went TO building cotton
mills, first on a small scale. but
kept building, until now it is a city
Of 10000 population
Mr.. Hargrove says:
Concord, twenty.one.miles from Char.
lotte, is one OF the most progressive
towns In the state, and has enjoyed ex
traordinary increases in population and
wealth IN eighteen years. In 1877 the
first mill was erected a. the successor
10 an antebellum mill.
The town In lSS0 had a population Of
1900, and In 1870 there were hy census
returns 1891 making an increase OF 2i2
per cent, the largest increase in popula
ton in this state. While in 1885 there
were 5l52 people residents Of Concord.
or a total increase In eighteen years Of
600 per cent. the wealth has increased
Ia proportion. While the published
data shows only six mills In Concord
there are really twelve. as the two old.
ct and largest mills have each added
three new millsto their force, under the
original Incorporation and company,
and thus the actual number Of mills
has multiplied until the number ID
twice what thew are reckoned by the
cotton mills blue.book and now they
actually exceed Charlotte's number by
one mill, and this does not include the
colored mans mill, worth $4,000,
which Is just finished.
In another article will be given
letter from a successful cotton
mill superintendent Of Newbury

the New Orleans Picayune. already
referred TO. shows that a cotton mill
costing 100000 consume near
ly 1000 bales Of cotton, If manu-.
featured into osnaburgs, sheeting,
shirting, drilling, rope. sacks, etc,
the common cotton goods used in
every southern community. BY
the present system this amount OF
cotton. sold to northern mills, pays
a freight charge Of about sl5, 900,
or, freight. insurance, brokerage
and drayage, all included, about
$4,000 to carry it TO the northern
mills. The cotton goods made
from il coming back here pay
about so cents per 100 pounds
freight or about Sl5,62S.OO, max
ing a freight charge alone of $780,
600, (leaying out insurance, bro
kerage, etc. TO get it to the factory
and back TO us for consumption.
Thus, of the capital necessary to
erect mill to manufacture 1000
bales of cotton into the goods
needed by us in our own market,
30 per cent. is paid out annu-
ally for freight alone on the goods
used here. This amount Of goods
would not be used (sold) in the
Bryan market alone, but the mar
kets of Bryan and a few neighbor-
ing towns would use that amount.
The illustration is sufficient TO
show the great waste Of their re-
sources practiced by southern peo-
pie.
Using the Shreveport market for
illustration, and giving exact fig
ures procured from wholesalers in
Shreveport to support his conclu-
sions, Mr.. Hargroye says:
"In osnaburgs, sheetings, shirt
ing and drills the Shreveport mar
ket uses annually 79l 1886 pounds
Of raw cotton, which would be cf
good ordinary grade, which is
quoted to-day, Dec. 81. 1898, at q
cents per pound, which gives an
aggregate cost of raw material OF
s32 .656.22. Let us see what il will
sell for" (Here Mr.. Hargrove
shows by tabular statement that
the goods sell in Shreveport for
s97, $3.50. Continuing Mr.. Har-
grove points out that the raw cot
ton necessary TO manufacture this
amount Of goods is sold by US for
1872, 656.22, and is returned to US
embellished by the skill Of other
people 1000 miles away and we pay
for IL the princly sum of s97, 575

The raw material used in the
manufacture of the rope annually

pays $4,000 for the rope manufac.
tured out Of it, thus paying for
froights and wages and profits To
northern millers, s4250, which
amount Of money might as well be
saved TO Shreveport by manufac-
turing it there, and the wages and
profits, TO say nothing of the
freights, which is an absolutely
dead loss.
The recapitulation of both cost OF
raw material and the value Of man.
ufactured produce will show an as
tonishing difference;

What applies to Shreveport will
apply just as well to Bryan or any
other southern town in the heart
of the cotton belt The farmers
are producing cotton at ruinous
prices. They are told to raise some
thing else, but if they do there is
no market Cor 1t like there would

Looking out over the field more
broadly, Mr.. Hargrove says:
