nexsticn Of the spanish colonies would
berient the South. The chief products Of
the South arc tobacco. rice. sugar, cotton
and lumber. Annexation Of the Spanish
West Indies. Hawaii and the Philippines,
and their being made a part OF the coast
OF the United States would bring the
South In direct home coast competition
with islands that produce the same sources
Of wealth that tho South produces. And
not only so. but tho labor system Of the
colonies Is such that II would have to bo
adopted In the South to compete success
fully, even In the Southern home consump-
ton markets. Az a business proposition
annexation would be the last thing the
South would want. There would he no
sense in advocating policy that would
put Southern States on an agricultural and
industrial parity with the Spanish islands.
oven II the cheap labor Of tho islands could
be introduced. The expansion educational
bureau viii certainly ind the South any
thing but fruitful field for the doctrine
OF foreign territorial acquisition. for it
means the humiliation OF some OF the
chief sources Of tho south's wealth.
Whatever Injuries the free and independ-
emit labor OF this country Injuries the coun-
try as a whole, and any policy which would
bring the cheap Chinese labor here must
be fraught with evil consequences.

come OF our home institutions as much as
possible. Atlanta is especially adapted to
manufacturing. Being located at a central
distributing point for the South. much
time and freight. which Is money, is saved
in the delivery of goods For instance,
when saw Is wanted it is generally need
ed Immediately, and the saving of even
day or two is big item. The saving OF
freight is certainly something to be con-
sidered."
Here, then. are two evidences OF what
wideawake men may do, so that the ques-
ton as to how Atlanta gets along may find
an answer. There are other enterprises
of like character with the two already
mentioned which will in due time find at
tention, whose managers, passing beyond
the limits CT the city, have introduced
our wares right into the trade centers OF
the enemy. A point about these ventures
we'll worthy OF attention is the fact that
they are run with home capital and home
talent, 1t is pitiable to see men standing
idle upon the street corners talking about
the introduction of Northern capital into
Georgia. II there is money in Georgia in
for the benefit of Georgians as for those
who live in Massachusetts, or in New
Hampshire? What does It mean when we
talk about the introduction of Northern
capital? Simply this: That body Of Bos-
ton men will get together $500, 900 and
place 1t in a plant somewhere in the South.
They will pay the very least they can for
the raw material which they are to use.
and then the wages of their employees will
be pushed down to the very lowest notch.
Thus they will have expended the very
minimum of what could possibly be taken.
out OF them. while all the rest is packed
up into dividends, taken the express office
and shipped up to Boston for distribution.
Who gets the benefit out OF this kind of in
vestment? Georgia is simply being de-
pleted for the benefit OF other people! In
the case of the Southern Furniture factory
and the Southern Saw works, the stock is
owned by men living in our midst Thus
the institutions pay wages to their en-
ployes buy the raw material from our own
producers, and the dividends are reinyested
either In the enlargement of the plants or
IN other ventures in our midst, and money
being in excess of these demands, it finds
It's way back into our own banks in the
shape OF deposits, which furnishes the cap
ital upon which borrowers may do bnsl-
ness. This is In the line OF true progress.
We want the presidents OF the big institu-
lions which reap the benefit of our re-
sources to live in our own cities. 1t mat
ters not whether it be upon the highlands
OF Atlanta or by the sea in Savannah, be-
cause, after all, our interests are the same.
and what benefits one benefits the other.
