CAPITAL COMING SOUTH.

South Carolina now ranks ncxt :,
Massachusetts in tile manufacture al
cotton goods. and it is stated that The
Goulds will soon invest a million and
a"ali OF dollars in cotton mills in
tnat State and Georgia. Mills are
springing up in all the cotton growing
States and the result is capital is now
seeking investments in the South with
gratifying eagerness.s The situation
which a half century ago made il
necessary to ship raw cotton from The
south 10 Massachusetts to be made
INTO fabrics has undergone a radical
change in recent years. and the wonder
IS IL dld not come to an end long ago.
Hitherto the main obstacle in the
way OF cotton manufacturing in the
cotton-growing States was the IN.
satisfactory condition of their labor
out this has been cured in a large
measure by the development of a
skilled working class among the rural
whites who are anxious to secure re.
munerative employment in the mills
and thus escape hard toll on the farms
The New York Journal of Commerce
says:

taking cotton mills South are already
