t
At the Cotton Congress held in
Memphis, Tenn. on Nov. 12th, committee
ou resolution recommended
"A Continuation of the agitation for
, Cotton Factories enough in the South
to manfacture our cotton" which we
think an excellent suggestion and
prompts us to write the following article.
About 28 years ago I started to learn
the Cotton Mill business entering the
employment of the Clifton Mfg. Co.
'6f 8partanburg, 8. C., at its! organization
under the direction of two of the
pioneers of this industry in this State,
Messrs Converse and Twitchell. There
were at that time about fourteen Cotton
Mills iu South Carolina and today
she is second to Massachusetts in the
manufacture of cotton. There was at
that time five cotton mill* in Spartanburg
County with an aggregate, number
of 9,780 Bpindles and today that
county has a total of 706,997 spindles
manufacturing by far more cotton
than she produces, her orop being
about 50,000 bales and her consumption
of cotton about 200,000 bales.
Spartanburg, Gcgeuville and Anderson
have made greater progress in
this industry than the other counties
of our state. It is claimed that the
Piedmont section is better adapted
for the manfacturing of cotton than
tho miririlA nr lnw?r sertinns nf our
state but we do Dot agree with this
idea for the reason that the central
and lower parts are Dot subject to any
severe chaages of weathers but have a
more even temperature throughout
the whole year. The principal reason
for the success of the Piedmont mills
in our opinion is largely due to their
ability to secure a ciass of "help" not
found in the middle or lower sections.
The laboring people of the "low countmr)'
ora mnra oKlo fn moto o livinor
11 J MA V UJV1V UU1U WW UJUUV M
on the farms than those of the "upcountry".
There is hardly any time
of the year that the lands of the "lowcountry"
are not in some way remun*
erative and for this reason there is
more inducement for the operative to
remain on the farm than there is in
the Piedmont section. Then too the
low,country abounds in fish and game
of various kinds which are conducive
to an indolent, lazy life.
In 1880 there was $2,776,100 invested
in cotion Mills in South Carolina and
in 1907 it had increased to $103, 821.919
and the number of spindles had
increased from 82,331 to 3,688,761.
The bales of cotton consumed in 1880
by the cotton mills of South Carolina
were 36,624, not as much as
Orangeburg County now grows, but
in 1907 the consumption had inCreasx
ed to 774,905 bales very nearly as
much as the whole crop of the State.
Now let us see about Orangeburg
County. Today she (including the
BabvCo.) can produce 75.000 bales of
cotton at an average weight, say of
480 pounds, sold at 9c per pound is
worth $3,240,000. Now suppose she
like Spartanburg manufactured her
own crop it would be worth something
like $0,300,000. To do this she
would have to have about 362,500
spindles spinning an average number
of 205 yaru at a cost say of $20 per
spindle would be $7,250,000 giving
employment to about 3, 897 hands an
additional population of 8,660 since
only about 45 per cent of the total mill
population are eligiple for work.
This would put a pay roll in Orangeburg
of $72,5000 per month or $870,000
per year, xou win perceive mat tnis
money would be kept at home and
? would not go to England and New
England where the bulk of our cotton
Is today manufactured. Of course
it will take many years to accomplish
this but as the committee in Memphis
said we should start now with this
end in view, and when we have accomplished
it we will be independent
people and Wall St. and N. Y. cotton
exchange will be a thing of the past.
I wish to say just here by way of
parenthesis that Spartanburg County
