pa ssing events have shown that trou-

Labor Troubles hob Up.
The inability OF the municipal au-

lighting system In jeopardy the past
year. and 1t looks as II the worst was
yet to come. Three times in the year
the employees OF both these plants have
gone out on strike without q mo-
ments warming, leaving the valuable
machinery and the public service sys-
tenn to run themselves. AT present q
strike Is on and the strikers have been
locked out" OF both places.
The town authorities claimed they
were not permitted under the State
laws to deal with the employees union,
and when the men did not get what
they wanted through the union they
laid down their tools. Later the Board

known to be friendly to union labor.
and this will mean the appointing OF
men to positions at both plants who
are new to the business and who have
little or no experience.
Already the machinery has been

power for actuating most of the in
dustries of Richmond. The same argu-
mcnt can apply to the Dan River in
connection with the city OF Danville.
Throughout the cotton manufacturing
section of North Carolina are so many
water powers that not q pound OF coal
need BIO burned to generate steam
were even small proportion Of the
rivers made available. What this
would mean to the textile industry
alone of the South can be appreciated
when It is remembered that two Of
the most important centres of this
activity not only in the South >but in
the world owe their prosperity to the
power canals which were among the
first to be constructed in this section
OF the country.
Further Down South.
THE remarkable development of the
city of Columbia as cotton making
centre is due almost to the canal which
was constructed to secure power from
the Congaree River. Although the
city has no more advantages than any
other community in the South, 1t has
become noted for the extent as we'll
as the quality Of the goods which 1t
manufactures The same can be said
of Augusta where a comparatively
snail head of water afforded by the
Savannah River has been utilized to
operate some Of the largest textile
plants in the South
Really the combination OF advan-
teges which this section OF the country
possesses for turning its greatest crop
into fabric Is without parallel in the
world owing to the proximity OF so
many water courses to the cotton
growing belt. In a recent article we
instanced the expansion OF this In
dustry in Lancashire where the steam
engine Is employed almost entirely and

buy a little cement and form a power
site which will turn every wheel in q
city, it seems strange that the South
ern people have not awaited themselves
of such opportunities long before. It
is worth while to reflect on this fact
that the power station on the Susque-
hanna is large enough to operate fully
hundred large cotton mills alone,
since few of the most extensive plants
require even thousand horse power

1t is not improbable that the meet

be held next week for the purpose
of discussing the advisability of hav-
