TBS SOUTH'S MONOPOLY.
tVmlrcw Carnegie B*yt? 8ho Has tho <
Worl?! At !?rr Ve.at,
Andrew Carnegie, one of tho world's ;
preat.osb mauufaoturors, says to the
south :
"You have the greatest monopoly
on earth, in tho growing of cotton,
and you have the world at your feet."
Thero ia an estimate W?rth oon- <
Sideling says tho Atlanta Journal. i
It ls a statrmeut tho truth of
which we to wilona it ls made only
half real!/.}. Wo have the only oil- <
mato and Boll on tho round earth
capable of producing in any market
able quality and quantity the greatest
oommeroiai commodity In whloa man
kind deals. This we all know full
weih but what aro wo doing with it
that proves our knowledge of UV
Wo ralsi cotton, pick lt, gin lt,
bale lt, and t' en let lt go for what
the outside purchaser wunts to glvi
us for it. All the tinao, toll and
trouble incident to bringing tho ?tapie
r.o a marketable sbapo ls ou ; tho
outside world mint have it from us;
we lot lt go at whatever figure they |
cGer. Snoo a situation is nothing
Mhortof a redaction upon thc south's
business ability. Mon like Andrew
Carnegie come hero amongst usant]
repeat time and after tlm?3 that we
have tho "greatest; monopoly on earth
in the growing of c?tton," but each
succeeding Beason linda tho BOU th
marketing tho prop Just as though lt
grew on every soil and was oommon
to every nation under the Hun.
As Mr. Carnegie Intimated, though,
there ls a gleam of hope ahead for the
south, Ile nenies one of tho condi
tions ht ro that promises to evolve
for the s l?th a full raeaBureof reward
from tho natural monopoly which
she erj ya.
.'Even in my day you have brome
a great manufacturing center," be
says, "and this lodrefcry la leaping
ahead with tr mend, us bounds."
The south ls be.; inning to manuft c
turo her own product in tho rougher
and loss costly form, and therein Hes
tho hope t hat some day she will be
able financially to manufacturo it
Into tho liner material of which the
cotton staple ls capable, and thereby
come into her full reward. At pre
sent ibo milln of the north, and of
England, Franco, Gcrmauy, Japan
,aud oihor oatlona reap tho prof! s
from thc manufacturing of tl.o liner
grades of coi'ton goods-prolix willoh
in comparison to those the ut u h r.;
coi vos iron tho raw material ard the
rougher manufactures aros'mply en
or mous.
Too first question to which the
ootton growing states mu b apply
Lhrmsolv-, i, according to tho bes;
authorities, la that of marketing thc
orop. The several slates hav) learn
ed tho art of growing cotton. That
tn tho monopoly of which Mr. Oat
neglo speaks, because no other natl n
and no ob-cr section of this nation
1 nov s this art or bas the nat irai ? n
vlronmentovau li they i huuld acqulr<
the knowledge. Now thc so States
must leain the business of marketing
the crop .so that a profit may h.; gair.
ed-CDrnmcnsurato <*ith the tiree, toi1
and naturai dlfiloulby attendant up>u
the growing, together wita the com
parativo rarity of tba staple.
Until this lesson ls well greuuded;
until tho alma of ouoh organiz itlons
as the Saubhern C ?tton Abolition
aro realized, tho sou h cannot hopo to
enter upon tho full me.a'.uro of her
reward In couueotloD with bor "mon
opoly." In tho first place, ?.ho will
ooo be financially able to develop her
manufacturing plants to their full
capacity of turning out tho Buer pro
duct of cotton goods, Though six
uudrod milli msof dollars aro poured
in o tbo south annually for her cos
on, s ill ibis not enough to enable
the cotton producers to-tooorao cn.
. ii manufacturers of the higher ti p ;
that is, ot the type which enj >ys tin
g re a tor pr lita from the Industry.
M st, of that euormoui sum goes
right b ?.ok to the sou roo whence lt
ooo cs, and mainly for tho purpose
f brlnglug ti ck ti the south thc
li ii IJ d product manufactured f/om
her own r rv m ter lal,
Should tho o nt >n .states over reach
tho point whero the c tton crop cou'd

ner, thou we mvy hope to seo tho
manufacturing < nterpris s advance In
av. n a great r degree tban Mr. Car
negie deioribcs as "leaping ahead
with treucudoua bounds."
As tho situation now stands, Ibo

ties forth: Investment of capital in
cotton manufacturing enterprises of
the hlghor type. Audrow Carnegie,
one of tlie world's greatest manufac

these lines, and well known men In

The trusts and tari IT protected cor
porations are in high glee at tho turn
political events have taken, by tho corp
centrallon of public opinion upon rail
road rate legislation. Mr. Payne, thc
Republican leader in Congress and
chairman of the committee on Ways
and Means, which controls al) revenue
legislation, has declared In a signed
statement that there will be no tarli!
bill reported at this session of Con
gress. This Republican stand pat policy
was agreed to last Fall by President
Roosevelt and Speaker Cannon, and
thc personnel of thc Committee ol'
Ways and Means was selected by (
Speaker Cannon, so that a majority
were ardent protectionists. Thus those j
Republican voters, who favored the ?
revision of tito tariff that fosters
trusts and allows them to charge pinn- j
dering profits, were again fooled after
voting for many Republican can
didates for Congress who promis
ed to vote to revise those tar i IV selie
doles that protected thc trusts, ore
vented competition, and allowed the
trusts to sell cheaper abroad than
here.
When those Republican Congress
men who were pledged to tariff reform,
elected Mr. Cannon as Speaker of the
House and adopted rules that gave
liim autocratic power over legislation,
they knew they were selling out their
constituents to tho protected monopol
ies, and giving the party machine tho
power to defeat or pass such legisla
tion as it pleased. Thc same condi
tions will obtain at the election this
Fall, and tho question ls, can tho vot
ers be fooled again lo vote for Re
publican candidates for Congress who
will stand pat and let the trusts con
t Inue to plunder t ho consumers? Prom
ises of Republican candidates are of no
avail unless thc pledge is given to
keep out of caucus and vote for a
Speaker who will agree lo give tariff
revision tho right Of way. That Mr.
Cannon will novo accede to, for he is
au ardont protectionist. The member
ship of tho next Congress will be moro
event ly divided between tho parties
and tho result In any dist rict may de
termine which pa-ty shall control.
The trusts and corporal ions will pay
money to tho Republican campaign
fund with tho understanding that
their interests are to bo protected, but
?lone but tho voters themselves will
furnish funds or efforts tor tho elec
tion of tho Democratic candidates.
Tba? alone should DO iheir recommen
dation to independent voters, If they

fersonian requlremoiits Of ability and
