Hockey Playing Must Stop.

Hockey players are having hard lines of it these days, and several of them have already decided that it is much cheaper to go to school. Sixteen war rants against parents of children fail ing to attend school were sworn out before Justice Hinson Thomas Satur- day, and most of them brought hearings before the justice yesterday. The school law provides that all children between 8 and fl years of age must at tend school, the penalty being visited upon the parents in the shape of fine ranging from $5 to $50. The law will be rigidly enforced from this on, and the hockey players may expect a warm entertainment after their father ha, been fined. For those children whose parents cannot control them, there is the reform farm.

An Investment of $4,000, 900.

The cotton mills of New England
have been passing through a period
of recovery, during the last fifteen
years, recovery from excessive divf-
dends and recovery from the unwise
mana cement of the sons of the ia
theirs. Five years ago we were told
that no cotton mills were being built
in the North, that men who chose to
invest in cotton manufacturing We're
going South. Some did go. Others
stayed, and put their money into the
remodeling of old plants and the con-
struction of new. The South forged
| ahead in the manufacture of cotton
| served warning on the North that it
| had adopted the manufacture of cot
ton for all time. that it could manu-
facture cheaper and that henceforth it
would be unwise to invest good money
in cotton manufacturing north of the
| Mason and Dixon line.
| Nevertheless the capitalists of the
North continued to put some of their
money into new weave sheds and up
to-date machinery. They continue tC
do it today and will continue to do il
in the future According to the Man
chester Union there are either building
or in prospect about $4,000, 900 in new
cotton mills, in New England That
sets at rest the apprehension that we
are to lose our cotton industries. They
are here to stay and they will continue
to grow just SO long as they are ad
lvantageously placed in the markets o.

Wonder if it ever occurred to any of
our readers that agriculture is of great
er Importance in the State of Maine
than any other one business? Most ali
"u towns and villages have a little
manufacturing, in which few thous-
and dollars is involved, and in which a
few men get their living, but it isn't
to be compared as a business In the
average good agricultural town, to the
value of the soil as a business, or an
industry There are but few water
powers in Maine out of the specially ia
vored sites that year after year can or
do turn a net income to their owners
of 10 per cent. Still it is capable of de-
monstration that any good farm in any
good Maine town will do this. Then
why do we think of the manufacturing
business in Maine, the development of
their rivers, and streams as of the ut
most importance and think of agricul-
ture az something to be deprecated
and to be taken uD when all else
fails. We wish some of our more gift
ed writer's on manufacturing prospects
would tell us.-Turf, Farm and Home.
We don't come within the meaning
ing prospects" but we would venture to
suggest that while the average Maine
farm cannot be moved close to the
market created by manufacturing
community, few farms are so remote
from undeveloped water power that the
market cannot be brought to them. The
farmer feeds the man who manufac-
lures and the manufacturer sells his
product IN part to the farmer. but by
far the greater part to out-of-the-
ate-consumers. That brings new
money into Maine. Just to that extent
do we avoid living off each other.
We do not know what proportion of
the water powers in Maine yield ten
percent. net, but when the whole truth
is known they are doubtless more nu-
merous than appears. In years past
some of them have yielded much more
than this. In the years to come they
will again. if we have been told the
truth concerning the coal supply. We
do not consider the development of wa
ter powers of the utmost Importance,
but their development will bring rich
es to the Maine mechanic and to the
Maine farmer. The two roads do not
cross. they run in parallel lines straight
up to bigger bank deposits, better farms
and buster villages.

A Better Understanding.

Pittsburg is battling with the inevi-
table result of lack of confidence and
intercourse between the heads of a
large industry and their employees. 1t
| has developed that the man riding
round in his automobile knew practi-
cally nothing of what was going on in
his mill beyond the fact that the men
there were somehow producing that
which paid him a profit. Grumblings
developed irto threats and threats into
an open breach which took the form of
strike and violence. When the situa-
ton reached the acute stage where it
cost the manufacturer money, he began
to investigate.
The manufacturer found that the
men he hired to employ others were
fleeing the ignorant employees in ev-
cry way possible. Their small wages
were not so small but that they were
made TO yield graft for the under bosses.
The ignorant employee knew no Ian
guage but his own and could not state
his grievance. When on rare occasions
a complaint did penetrate to the men
higher up it was dismissed without in
vest:sation and the grating went mcr-
rily on.
The strike brought this grating
sharply to the attention of the manu-
facturers themselves and half the rea-
son for the strike was at once removed.
AS soon as the wounds are healed there
is no doubt but that the employees will
return to make new wealth for them
selves and their employer and with
better understanding of each other
which will yield more contentment and
happiness 1t is plain that the man at
the head of a great industry cannot
look after the smaller details and pros
per. He is needed in the big things.
but he can so select his subordinates
that the chance of misunderstanding
with the laborer is reduced to a mini
mum.

| the World. The South has greatly in
creased the production of cotton good!
| in America, but while they have made
inroads on the old market, new have
been found and prosperity still reign'
in New England.
The Manchester Union says:
The industrial growth of that sor
in the South has been so rapid that !
consumes nearly as much OF the cot
ton crop as Is now used up in this sec
ton, where it's manufacture has beer
so long established, but that is no
worrying the manufacturers here. Tht
experience through the business de
preston has shown that the world!
requirements for cotton goods have
outstripped the almost phenomenal in
crease in the capacity to supply, anC
there is every reason to believe that
such expansion in demand will con
tinue.
The Atlanta Constitution believes
that New England's monopoly Of the
finer goods market can be challenged
1t puts it in this language:
The ultimate result is as fixed as the
succession of the seasons. The south
ern mill is right at it's base of supply
of crude MATERIAL native coal for pow
er purposes is ample, cheap and easily
accessible; water power is infinitely
more abundant than in New England
and every year the south adds to its
ability to furnish its own needs in the
important particular of skilled anC
technical workers.
The supremacy of New England viii
not, of course, be impaired for some
years to come.
But every economic and commercial
law points as surely to the ultimate
domination of southern cotton milling
England. as does the inevitable out
come of a simple problem in mathe-
mates.
In the face of these gloomy fOrehod-
phecies-for the South-the hard
headed capitalist of the North proceeds
to invest $50,0O0,000 in new buildings
for cotton manufacturing, evidently
going on the principal that whoever
is supreme" they anticipate a rea-
sonable return on the investment
That is the main point in any case.
There will be business enough for
both.
