Tar Heel Notes.

Thursday afternoon in the office
Of the Standard Chair Company, of
Thomasville, was organized one of
the strongest and most etfectual chair
association ever consummated in the
State, or the entire South. Owing to

material required in the construction
of chairs, practically all the factories
in the State are making double cane
seat chairs and open cane-seat repres-
entatives to Thomasville yesterday
and organized the North Carolina
Chair Association, with Mr.. E. S.
Lambeth, of Thomasville, as presi-
dent; Mr.. O. E. Mendenhall, of Lex

S. L. Davis, of High Point, as second
vice president; Mr.. S. II. Tomlinson,

UNITED STATES LAND OF
MANY AND MIGHTY RESOURCES

Rudyard Kipling has been condemning the American
people for being a race of moneymakers. He uses some
high-sounding phrases, in fact, he seems to be quite in
dignant. But after all, he can accuse us only of sue
ceeding eminently in what all the rest of the people are
trying their best to do. In the open field of foreign
The gravest public question in England, Germany, France
and all the rest Of the European countries is how to
maintain and extend their trade and enlarge opportunities
for increasing the national wealth. Because we, through
richer natural resources, shrewder business methods and
higher skill in workmanship, beat them all at the gen
eral game, need there be ill-tempered accusations? To
the sheer of pretended contempt we can placidly reply
that England, France, Germany and all the rest are try
ing their best to be races Of mOney-makers, but can't.
We have the widest strip of the richest soil the sun
shines on. We have the finest climate in the world.
We have the most productive mines, wells, farms and
factories ever grouped into one land. We have the rich
est supply of natural resources ever known to any Poop
pie in any period of the worlds history. We have gath
cred together here the best blood and brain and Drawn
OF all the nations of the earth, and each individual man
is ~broadened by general education and quickened and
inspired by independence and opportunity. Indeed, with
all our advantages, if we did not eminently succeed in
the ambition that is universal among mankind we should
be ninnies and nineompoops,
The charge that we are a m~oney-making people Is
quite true. But 1t is no reproach. 1t is unlikely that
there ever was a day, or a place on the earth's surface,
when and where such enormous sums of money passed
about SO freely as have recently been exchanged in the
metropolis of this country. In an inner room at some
very plain Offices a very mildmannered gentleman takes
! $l0,OO0,0O0 in certified checks from his pocket and passes
them over to another. The almost fabulous sum is
given for the extension Of higher education out of a
private fortune which will not feel the loss. About the
same time a cab was rolling down Broadway from the
city hall to the City bank and in it, was an unnoticed
little man bearing $36OOO,OOO, a part Of the taxes paid

WEALTH OF THE SOUTH

Those of the north whose estimate of the industries
of the south is based on rapid surveys through car WIN
dows will be surprised to learn that of the total exports
of the country last year Al per cent was contributed by
the south.
For a long time after the war, which Frustrated us
industries, the south was regarded as p~aralyzed and pow
ertystricken. Comparisons between the fertile farms
of the north, its smoking chimneys, humming factories
and heavy railway traffic, with the long stretches in the
south where the soil looks thin and barren and the towns
desolate. have created in the northern mind a decidedly
wrong impression which only official figures OF produc-
ton can set right.
Among last years exports exclusively from the south
were cotton, SS79,965Oi4; cotton seed oil, $l5'lZo'SoZ'
cotton seed cake and meal S13,S97,17S; naval stores,
SIG LOG SAB: phosphates. $~6,SS6,274. This makes a total
of s45l $50 GIL. exclusively southern products and TINS
alone was nearly onethird of all our domestic exports
But besides the articles named, the south exports other
products which it raises or manufactures in common with
other parts of the c~ountry-timber, tobacco, petroleum.,
cotton goods, provisions, grain. coal, cattle, fruits, iron
and steel, wood manufactures, leather-and its share Oh
such exports is roughly estimated at S1S3,OOOOOO. Hence
a total Of S614,900,O00 or Al per cent of the value oil all
the exports of the country.
Cotton is still king, and the south is still the garden
SPOT of the earth. The value of exports of raw cotton
alone exceeded the value of the combined exports Oh
breadstuns cattle. hogs and sheep, provisions and min
eral oils. 1t was almost three times as great as the
value of all iron and steel exports, and twothirds as great
as the value of all manufactured products. Such figures
as these prove such wealth of southern fields and such
industrial activity Of the southern people that the north
ern opinion of the industrial south is compelled to under
go a decided change.

AN CASE

Graft. grab, debauching of legislators, outrageous
salaries and the other things brought out in the investl
CATION now being carried on by the New York legislative
committee. are not the only things connected with lnsur-
ance which may be of public interest. A case Is now
before the Kentucky courts for adjudication, which can
claim popularity if not importance. John Thompson
owed a banker, William Graves, a sum of money. To
secure the obligation, Thompson assigned TO Graves a
$4,000 life insurance policy. Not long afterward
Thompson and Graves became involved in an alteration
about the debt. The result was that Graves drew a
revolver and killed Thompson.
The question is, not as to the validity of the polcy'
but as to whom the money should be paid. 1t is claimed
by the administrator of Thompson's estate on the ground
that Graves. although the killing was held to have been
committed in self-defense, cannot profit by his own act
Graves claims that the unfortunate fact that ne was COM
PEELED to kill Thompson in defense of his life can have
no effect on the obligation due from Thompson, although
the killing made the immediate collection of the debt pos
sible.
The insurance company has refused to pay the money
to either claimant without an order of court. The ques-
ton is rather a nice one, and the outcome of the suit
will doubtless be awaited with much interest by lawyers
and others.

Six months in the county Jail for the theft of a pair
of shoes is the hot dose that was handed to Jessie Shaw,
a negro, by Justice Chacon, at Primero, says the Chron-
icIe News, being one of the longest, if not the longest,
sentence ever given for petty larceny in this county.
The shoes were worth a couple of dollars and Shaw is
alleged TO have stolen them from the company store at
Primero. In addition to the confinement sentence, he
was fined twenty-five dollars and costs amounting to
thirteen dollars and five cents, making a total of about
one hundred and ninetynine days, or nearly seven
months, which he must serve in the county Jail. But
during that time he must be fed at the expense of the
tax payers, his living during the time, in all probability,
being better than e would get were ne at large, while
in addition, he will get the dearly loved idleness to which

Sir George Williams, who was buried on Tuesday
beneath the dome of ST. Pauls cathedral, London, had
an experience which was both wonderful and unusual
Sixty-one years ago, a poor farmers son, at that time a
clerk in a London dry goods store, he invited eleven
other clerks to meet in his bed room to form "a society
for improving the spiritual condition of young men en-
gagged in the drapery and other trades" The society
then and there formed, Williams was destined to see grow
until it encompassed the earth, having at the time of
his death, nearly 100000 members and 1876 branches
in all lands. Other societies of a similar nature were
organized in Germany and in Glasgow, Scotland, prior
to the London circle, but it is now conceded that it was
from the germ planted by the poor young diapers clerk
that the organization known as the Y. NJ. c. A. had its
origin. And not only did he see the organization thus
grow, but at the time of his death he was the president
of il.
