That is sum fitted to try the imagination of any ordinary citizen who never saw as much as billion dollars I doubt whether that billion will make war upon itself or endanger its own existence.

 Visitors to the South are surprised at the number of these mills, which are visible everywhere after crossing the cotton belt. Statistics but recently collected by the Southern Railway furnish interesting in- formation along this line, which shows that there a gain last year of +, 099 looms and 422, 049 spndles in the mills of the South. These new mills are dis tributed as follows: Twenty-Five in Ala bama, forty-four In Georgia, two in Ken lucky, two in Mississippi 123 in North Carolina (which bears off the honors as the cotton manufacturing State of the South), sixty-five in South Carolina, nine in Tennessee and three in Virginia. They make all sorts of common fabrics, such as tickings sheetings, prints, Shirtings, drillings and so on, but only few make the finer grade of goods. great deal of hosiery and underwear are manufactured by the knitting mills and a South Carolina plant makes art squares and ingrain car pets, while others manufacture all kinds of cloth for suftings, including fanneis and blankets. Altogether the future looks attractive for cotton mill settlements in the South, where operatives have the ad- vantage over their colleagues in the North, inasmuch as nearly every family has few acres planted in cotton which they find time to cultivate.

 Take another example ,and turn on eye upon the elephantine thing at and near Pittsburg. Here let me quote from the au- thor of some revelations printed last Feb ruary, which said:
 'The Carnegie Company is a practically impregnable monopoly. It controls all the materials of it's manufacturing processes, from the iron ore of the Messaba range to the finished article. It Is a member of combination or trust that includes the con cerns big enough to be formidable com petitors. Its enormous profits enable 1t by sheer weight of money to crush out com petition from smaller concerns. Competi- tion from abroad is effectually shut out by the tariff. The government of the United States Is a powerful partner in the enter prise. Take the government out of the partnership, demolish the wall behind which these incredible profits have been gathered in. and the Carnegie Company would no longer be able to tax the country as it has taxed 1t for the last eight years"

John Swinton on Trusts

From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
 I have no doubt that the trusts will yet play the mischief with our country. In fact, they are already playing it to an ex- tent that few people seem to be aware of. The industrial revolution which they have sprung upon us Is greater than that which upset things in Western Europe when surfdom was broken down, greater than that which took place at the opening of the century, when the strange forces of steam and machinery were introduced; greater than that which was brought about in monarchical France by the revolutionary earthquake.
 The hundred or more ruling trusts have become the real government and business administration of our country, for they have an almost unlimited power of taxa ton Gas was demonstrated in my last ticle) and have taken control of most of the country's working capital and of most of the things needful for life, and of many of the chief industries and of an unmeas- ured amount of labor, and are now able to use all existing agencies of every kind to promote their ends.
 A citizen of New York, a man of a cheer full cast of mind, sends me some sugges- tions as to trusts, one of which Is as fol- lows:
 If nothing Is done in this matter the

 Now, fellow citizens, in the first place, this is a prediction and it may never be realized.
 Tn the second place, I don't believe that the particular war between trusts which you foresee would be any more harmful to the country than the evils which the trusts now foster. should smile, perhaps, if saw them destroying each other, for we might have something better after their destruction.
 In the third place, such a war as you speak of Is, as the thinkers say, "unthink- able" The greater trusts have fortified themselves against assault They hold in their grasp the engines of defense-the ele- mental and financial forces. Such parties as have arrayed themselves in hostility to the Standard Oil monopoly, for example. A.A unable to get possession of these forces,

 The cotton acreage of the South this year will not be far from 26,OOO,0O0 acres, the largest on record. Good prices are expected for the raisers for the reason that the crop of India last year was almost total fail- ure, while ours was small, and the present Egyptian crop is far from promising. Both the cotton raiser and the textile manufac- turer are consequently expecting a boom. along the western parts of North and South Carolina, Alabama and Georgia, either built or in the course of erection. Many will be of large capacity and business in them will begin before the close of the current year.
 Out of the 366 mills now in operation there are forty-six woolen mills and about the same number of knitting mills. The num- Der of looms foots up 95,316, aggregating B. 322607 spindles About one-third of them are run by water power, for as yet the South Is not fully utilizing its abundant water supply.
