THE GENIUS OF FRANKLIN.
Louisville Courier-Journal.


It was on January IT, 1905, that
Benjamin Franklin was born. To
morrow will be the two hundredth an
niversary of his birth and the Occa-
sion will be celebrated in many
American cities.
Than Franklin, the country has not
produced a man worthier of the adj
miration, the gratitude and affection
OF all Americans, and they do well to
pay tribute to his memory. George
Washington led the fight Of powder
and shell on this side of the Atlantic
John Paul Jones won prestige for the
Colonial navy on the sea, but Benja-
min Franklyn fought the great battle
for the new and struggling nation
with the diplomacy of Europe, and
but for his brilliant, tactful, tireleSs
even marvellous efforts. Washington
ana Jones might not have been SO
successful in shaking off the British
yoke. He obtained financial, moral
and armed support of unreasonable
value.
Franklin was not merely a BRAIN
patriot; he was a truly remarkable
man. He was not merely that; he
was a great man He was a genius.
He was a successful publisher; a scr
enlist, an inventor, philosopher, a
wit, a savant, a humorist a statesman.
a journalist, diplomatist. He was
not specifically versatile, but in each
OF the branches of endeavOr he con-
tTibuted something of value to the hui
man race. He chained the lightings
he published some of the earliest
books ever printed on these shores,
he wrote books that became classics,
nc devised mechanism that reYolu-

was a leading factor in the a'elibera-
tons resulting in the remuneration by
the Colonies Of British rule, and as
our principal European displomatic
agent, fairly startled the world with
his ability.
It is not often that man of such
eDdowments appears. And as the
years go by. all the civilized world
will appreciate more and more his
genius and his deeds.

One Of Hir LIABILITIES.

During a recent financial panic a GER
tain city msgnate, like many others,
found one night that his real estate
was unstable, his firm bankrupt and
his money locked up in suspended
bank. In deepest dependency he walk
ed slowly home and greeted the com
paniOn Of his joys and sorrows.

the bank. Sos the firm. I've lost my
money and my house and everything

as she cast herself upon his breast,

That's so, Mary replied the unfeel-

that any Of the liabilities would disap-

The Tampa Globe, heretofore pub
lished weekly, made its initial bow to
the public on Sunday last as a daily
morning newspaper. As a weekly de-
voted to the cause of Union Labor the

conspicuous in Florida journalism and
its first issue as a daily is sufficient
evidence that its high standard will

ception TO the general rule. No
breath of scandal OF faint of dishon.
esty has ever cast a blemish upon his
character, either in business or out of
it, and every one OF his thousands of
employees, from the highest to the
most humble honored and respected
him.
Those who have had the pleasure of
meeting Mr.. Field found him, although
a man of great dignity, a cordial, I'M
assuming, whole sOuled gentleman.
He was ever ready to give to charity
and thousands have been benefited
through his generosity and made bet
ter by his kindly words of advice and
sympathy In the course Of his life
he has given millions to the cause of
education and charity and to the bet
termeut of mankind. Mr. Field did
not attempt to conceal his great
wealth, but listed it and paid full taxes
upon it like a good citizen. MOnopo-
lies. questionable schemes and sub
rosa transactions had no place in his
life, which was open to all the world,
and the great wealth that he amassed
is glittering proof that a man can sue
coed wonderfully in life by hewing to
the line of strict probity.
Mr.. Field is dead. but his memory
will be cherished by thousands. On
mis- tomb can be craven the words,
Here Lies an Honest Man." and those
words none can gainsay.

The Cotton Mills
Of the World.

In view Of the present price Of cot
ton, the short crop talk and the asser
ton, in all probability soundly based
that the cCtton spinners Of the world
viii shortly be compelled TO enter the
market and buy cotton or close dowr
their mills, the following. from the
Birmingham Age-Herald, is interest
ing:
The American Cotton Manufacturer
says there are 120,000,0O0 spindles in
1864 cotton mills in the world. Great
Britain holds 2O07 cotton mills in
which there are 50.964.S74 spindles
Nearly all Of these mills are located
in England. which is smaller than Ala
bama By 1000 square miles.
In the northern states of this CoUn
try there. are 573 mills containing IA.
S10,l64 spindles. In the south there
are 659 mills. but they Hold only s,
O5O,879 spindles. Germany has as
many spindles as the south has. Rus
STA, France and India each have over
five million spindles.
The annual consumption per spindle
is 132 pounds in India. 1t is high there
because coarse goods only are made in
India. In this country il is "a pounds;
in Great Britain it is but SO pounds
These figures show that the spinners
OF Great Britain are spinning finer
yarns and making cloths Of lighter
weights. Southern mills use a great
deal Of cotton per spindle.
The Manufacturer concludes that
the grand total requirements Of tTz
mills Of the world stands at 1884, S45
bales. and that 4O0,000 is the normal
annual increase in the demand. These
facts are certainly interesting to the
country that grows the worlds chief
commercial crop.
The crop Of the world grown in
1904 was as follows:
