Cotton in Georgia.
In the March number of the Southern
States, an illustrated monthly maga
zine devoted to the South, the
State of Georgia is be irtibjct of -the
issue, arid among other articles is one
entitled "Cotton in Georgia" by Mr. H.
H. Hickman of Augusta, president of the
Gnmitoville MiuruifjtoCuritijr Company.
It. deals nnterluiniugly with the sub
ject of cotton manufacture, and sots out
the fact Unit the state has more than half
a million spiudics and 12,000 looms, or
one-fifth of the entire spinning and weav
ing capacity of the Suthern states, and
that Augusta and Columbus contain con
that Auguste -awl Columbus contain
considerably more than half of the in
dustry of Georgia.
But the most interesting and novel part
of the article is the description of
cotton culture from planting to harvest
time. While reviewing the subject in a
necessarily cursory way, it nevertheless
treats it so simply and plainly that even
the luim unfamiliar with farming can
gi t an i'll .I 111 I lie way in which cotton
is raised. It is an entertaining chapter
on tile .-abject of cotton, and will be
found in full in another column.
The Value of Pine.
Georgia pine Las come to be a very
fasliioiuible wood for interior decoration
in the buildin of today, and is constantly
growing in popularity as building ma
lerial. It has always been the main
building staple in the South, but.' not
until recent years has the beauty of the
natural wood when oiled and polished
come so prominently into public iavor.
I',ill now it seems that the pine is to
liave new commercial value from the
finding of certain commissions and the
report from official sources concerning
it.s adaptability not only ns a building
material, but for use in the construct ion
of many implements for which oak, ash
and hickory have heretofore been con
sidered indispensable.
The commission) of arboriculture of
Harvard college was commissioned by
the government a few years ago to con
duet some careful experiments with a
view to ascertain the comparative quali
ties and behavior of rhe principal woods
used in manufacturing, testing them
under various kinds of strains with
scientific apparatus capable of recording
exact, results. The apparatus used for
the purpose is located at Matertown ar
senal. and cost. the government over
$150,009. With this manhinery, spec!
mens of wood thoroughly seasoned, from
different parts of the trees, were tested
with results which have been noted for
the benefit of the public.
Commenting upon this The Manchester
(N. 11.1 Union says: The long leaf yel
low pine, it was found, is the peer of
any wood for general purposes, ami par
ticularly for structures, machines, im
plements, etc.. subject to great tranverse
strain, and could, therefore, be substi
tuted for oak aaid psh for many pur
poses for which these woods have been
specially employed on account of their
supposed superiority in this respect. Ln
the report of the chief of the division
of the United States department of agri
culture for 1891, it is stated, "that the
long leaf pine is superior wherever
strength and durability are required;”
that "in textile strength it approaches
and may surpass cast iron.” and that
-in cross-breaking strength it rivals the
oak. requiring 10.000 pounds per square
Inch to break it., while in stiffness it is
superior to the oak by from 50 to 100
per cent.” The Harvard college authori
ty says further, that contrary to the
general belief, “the tapping of the pine
for turpentine was found, by a large
number of tests made under direction of
the division, not to weaken but. to
strengthen the timber in cross-breaking,
and to increase its stiffness.'
These findings should give new value
to Hue pine lands of the South, and the
day may y.et come when the man who
has considered himself "land-poor” and
regarded his pine timber valuable only
fore firewood ami rails sliall find himself
made rich by what be believed almost
a.n incumbrance on the ground. It used
to be the case in the South that a tract
of land was more or less valuable in
proportion to the amount of "cleared
land" it contained, and the acres which
had the timber all cleared off were worth
more than those which were covered
with pines. Tt is possible that before
a great while our people will look at
this question in a different light.
Sit Steady in the Boat.
AVe publish this morning a communi
cation signed "A Full Democrat," in
which the writer goes on to tell the hard
pull it is going to be to save the country
unless the Democratic party keeps its
pledges to the people, and how the party
must hang together and stand by the
platform whether President Cleveland
does or not. The communication is on
the line of what is appearing from day
to day in many papers in Georgia and
elsewhere, and we publish it as a text
for a few remarks of our own, rather
than because we feel that it tills a
long felt want, or that there is any
special demand that somebody should
say just what it contains.
Our advice to our Atlanta corres
pondent, and to all others who are wor
ried about what is going to be the re
sult if the party does not redeem its
pledges, is to sit steady in the boat and
see if there is any reason to believe
that the present administration has any
idea of not fulfilling the party pledges,
before they go to borrowing trouble.
Nobody has any right to say that Presi
dent Cleveland does not intend to stand
by the party’s pledges to the people,
and it is only simple justice to wait
until the policy of the administratidn

Onr Atlanta friend Bays in his private
letter accompunyinyhis communication
that he has "beef a Democrat from
the days when AA»l>ster, Clay and Cal
houn were senators, and has always,
been with the fjill-bloodH.” AVc do not
believe that a man who has stood np
to the scratch this long, through some
of tlie tight places through which the
party has had to tight its way to victory
in the past, is going to unnecessarily
mutilate his linen nt th's late day. He
is too old a rahlier tv be going off half
cocked, and wu doul't not he is ready
to hold his nshitig line still, for the
present, and/wait for developments.
In behulf/of party unity, and party
success in toe future we say to all these
nervous fJlows who are predicting all
sorts of fi ndemocratic poF-ies for the
present J lininistration, just dt steady
in tile i/'.it and leave Air. Cleveland
to do th/ steering. The parly has laid
down fl/' chart for thA voyage and has
placed Vin in coffmnnd' of the sliip of
state, i It seems little enough to ask
that the passengers shall maintain theft
eqnilbrinin until the crew is all in

Wla-n the .hip is well under way, and
it Is shown that she is sailing out of
he - due course it will be time enough
to talk about possible disaster. For
ourselves we believe President Cleve
land w'll steer by the party's chart,
and in the meantime we again suggest
to tlie impatient, just to sit steady in
the boat.
The Individual Fanner.
Tn a private letter to the editor of the
Chronicle, in which Col. Redding direc
tor of the Georgia Experiment Station,
returns thanks for the use of our col
umns in the little discussion over "Bul
letin No. 2D" with Major Harry Ham
mond of Beech Island, he makes some
points on tlie question of reduced, cot
ton acreage that are -so excellcjt, w 0
take the liberty of embodying tlii-m here.
He says:
Permit me to add that discussions of
this character go to the very root, of the
mutter of cotton production from the
farmer's standiMiint. Il is not a i|u>“s)jon
tion of co-operation to reduce area and
thereby reduce production. That is ut
terably impracticable in the present con
stitution of human nature, and all past
exocriens-e has proven it..
The argument should be addressed to
flie individual farmer and he shouD
bo convinced that it is to his owu ite
dividual interest to reduce the cost of
his cotton, regardless of what others
may do. To accomplish this involves a
reduction of area -a very large reduc
tion. and n considerable decrease in the
number of bales produced by the individ
ual who adopts the system. If many
adopt it, thi-i-o will be a corresponding'
decrease in .the aggregate crop produc
tion. 'l’his will result, in a higher mar
ket price: of which nil Trill get the
benefit; but those farmers who were in
strumental in effecting this decrease will
got a double benefit. They will have
made less i-ctton. it is true, but at great
ly loss cost per pound and wilt get the
same price the others receive. A far
mer would do greatly better to make ten
bales of cotton at a cost of five cents
per pound and sell it for eight fonts,
tflmn to make tiwetv bales nt a cost t*f
seven cents and sell it for eight cents.
Tn the first case there is a profit of $150:
in the last the profit is only $100.”
The columns of the Chronicle are al
ways open for the intelligent discussion
of subjects that are interesting and in
structive to the fiirmers, or »ny
other class of our citiizens. where
the parties to the discussion are
men who write with the au
thority of experts or of practical ex-
perience. and tlie discussions are in good
temper and have some useful end to
serve. Such discussions ,ge|t at <the
truth of mooted questions, and are of
practical value to the farmers who fol
low them. No matter is of graver im
port to our section, which is so largely
agricultural, and where cotton is the
chief staple, than the best, method of
cotton culture. As Director Redding
says, the effort, to reduce the cotton
acreage by common consent, or co-opera
tion offers little hope of success. I*
certainly has been faithfully preached
by tlie Southern press, and with little
effect on the mass of farmers, and there
seems to be wisdom on the point that
Col. Redding makes, that the argument
must be carried home to the individual
farmer, and he must be convinced that
it is to his interest without reference to
wtiat couirse other farmers shall pursue.
By winning them over as individuals,
they will be won as a class after awhile.
We oommend the careful re-reading of
the points made iu Col. Redding’s let
ter quoted above.
State Banks.
The Democratic party is committed to'
the repeal of the 10 per cent, tax on
the bills of state banks. This tax is
for prohibition and not for revenue, and
there are those who believe that the
act. is unconstitutional. It. is alpwst
certain that. Congress will repeal it.
Under a proper system of state bank
ing it is confidently believed that the
financial problem will be in a fairway
of solution. Real estate is not a con
vertible security for money, and for
this reason banks do not like to be
weighted down with it. Under the
national bank net. partially for the
reason stated, realty was prohibited for
loans. This was an unjust discrimina
tion against the Southern farmer who
had an embarrassment of riches in land.
The law did not operate near so oppres
sively in the East and West where
they had loan and trust companies with
an abundance of money to loan on
realty.
There is no section of the country
where state banks would do so much
good as in the South. There is no rea
son why the states could not be safely
entrusted with their regulation. The
banks could b<» authorized to do busi
ness on a deposit of state and muni
cipal I Hind h and other good securitiee.
It is absurd to assert that tlie state
could not be safely entrusted with this
business.
For twenty-five years, under the na
tional banking act, tlie South has been
impoverished and will continue to be
until the' system of free banking is
restored to the states. AA’e have no
money centres iu the South. They are
all in the North, were the finances
are controlled and where the currency
flows as naturally as night follows day.
AVbat we need is a banking system
with a state currency that will con
stantly come back to us—a system that
will have some elasticity aboirt it—a
system that will not arbitrarily pro
scribe as worthless the most plentiful
security that our people own. The
South needs a system of banking tliut
will aid in building up our farming
interests and in developing our mineral
resources and manufnetnring industries.
Under judicious laws, tlie states are
entirely competent to manage thw’r own
banks. This is one of their constitu
tional rights, and the general govern
ment will no longer tie permitted to
usurp a prerogative that belongs to the
states. The Democratic party is com
mitted to *the repeal of the act and it
will not take any step backward. No
one litis any right to question its good
faith. As certain as Congress meets,
so certain will the 10 per cent, tax on
the issues of state banks be repealed.
Kicking the Market.
Cotton seems to have no friends. The
bears are kicking the market, and spin
ners are living from band to mouth.
The big strike in Manchester, Mie large
visible supply and tlie reports of in
creased acreage have resulted in reduc
ing the price of cotton.
'Die South is not responsible for all
of the causes that have contributed to
bring aliout the. demoralizat on in the
market, but the strike and the surplus
ami the bears and the indisposition of
spinners to buy would all have been
overcome were it not for the impres
sion thut lias been industriously created
of tlie largely increased acreage over
last year. It suits the interests of cer
tain parties to depress the market and
to keep forcing down the price.
Admitting an increased acreage of 20
per cent., there is no good reason for
the present low price of cotton. Then,
too, there are dangers to be encountered
by a crop just planted that render it
impossible for the wisest and most ex
perienced to tell tlie result. At present
prices, cotton seems to be the cheapest
article in the world.
Cotton Manufacturing Pays.
It is only a question of time when the
mills will come to the cotton fields from
New England. The success of manufac
turing in the South makes this a certain
ty. The mills in Augusta and elsewhere
ih Georgia an dacross tlie river in Caro
lina lire no longer an experiment. They
have passed through the uncertainties of
experimentation with untried labor and
Hie inexperience of the executive de
partment upon the right conduct of which
so niin li depend-*. With our salubrious
climate, cheap water power ami raw
material at first, cost, we feel that the
future of cotton manufacturing in the
South is assured.
Wonderful Success.
The Chronicle notes with pleasure the
success of tin- Graniteville .Manufiu’tur
ing Company under the able manage
ment of 11. H. Hickman, Esq., presi
dent and treasurer.
The net earnings of the company for
thq year ended March 1 were $107,-
020.21. A ten per* cent dividend, which
is $(>0,000 ‘on the eaptital stock, was
paid, and $42,000 were expended for
uew machinery, and $0.01)0 for other im
provements.
This is a wonderful showing for the
Graniteville and Vauclu.se mills of the
Graniteville Manufacturing Company.
President Hickman is not only a good
financier buit an experienced mill presi
dent. A’auclnse was built at am expense
of $3G1,513.2*t out of the profits of the
Graniteville mill. The original capital
was SOOO,OOO. The total surplus March
Ist, 1893, is represented by $084,034.17.
This fine showing should put some of
our Northern spinners to thinking of the
great advantages the South has for profi
table investment in cotton mills. It. is
no longer a question of theory. The
facts and the figures speak for them
selves.
The Augusta Exposition.
The Georgia State Fair at the Augusta
Exposition is the way it reads.
The premium list of the Georgia State
Fair and the Augusta Exposition is in
the hands of the printer. Ten thousand
copies will be distributed. Our mer
chants should avail themselves of this
opportunity to advertise their business.
The Georgia State Fair at the Augusta
Exposition is the way it reads.
There will be no other exposition in
the South this yeay. Hence the oppor

The Chronicle lias received a communi
cation from Alabama relative to the
publication in a Selma paper of a propo
sition from two ministers, one of them
from Augusta, and inviting us to com
ment on the same. The publication in
volves a question of doctrinal belief, and
we never discuss such questions our
selves or allow others to discuss them
in our columns. Thut is not what we
conceive to he the mission of a daily
newspaper. Such discussions should be
•arried on in the pnlpil and in religious
papers. It is not the province of the
daily -newspaper to criticise any man s
religious belief, and we must respectfully
decline to do so ourselves or to open our
columns to anybody else for such profit
less discussions.
Rapid Transit.
It will not be long before the time from
Augusta to New York will be reduced
to twenty hours. The trip is now made
over the Richmond und Danville iu
twenty-sous hours.
There is no fault to find with the sched
ule except as to the hour of leaving Au
gusta, 12:30 p. m. This is not in the
interest of our city. While roads prima
rily are not run for the benefit of cities,
there is no doubt of their being import
ant factors in building up communities.
We could name several cities that have
greatly prospered because important
railroads worked iu tiieir interest.
But we started out to notice the rapid
transit, between Augusta and New York.
The distance is a little over eight hun
dred miles. It could be made in twenty
hours, but if the train left Augusta at
8 a. m. the present service would be all
that could be desired.
The distance from New York to Chi
cago is about one thousand miles. Com
mencing May Ist the trip will be made
iu eighteen hours.
The New York Central runs a train
from New York to Buffalo, four hun
dred and eighty miles, in ten hours.
Speaking of rapid transit, the fast
train on the Georgia railroad is one of
tlie best and most reliable in the coun
try. It has been running for about eight
years between Atlanta and Augusta, and
has never missed half a dozen times in
that many years. It is as regular as clock
work, and gets tliere on schedule time.
The distance is one hundred and seventy
one miles, and the time is five hours—
a very excellent record for the Georgia
railroad.
It is not improbable in the very near
future that Augusta will be again on
the through line of travel between New
Orleans and (New York. When that
time comes there will be not only rapid
transit but rapid development for Au
gusta. Events are uwv shaping them
selves for the benefit of our commerce
and manufactures, und incidentally for
the benefit of our agriculture.
The Denmark Mob.
After arresting nearly a score of sus
pected negroes, and being at the point
of lynching several inmoi'ent persons, the
mob at Denmark vented its wraith and
wreaked vengeance lust night on John
Peterson. It was hoped by the law
abiding and conservative people in Caro
lina and here, that the narrow escape
wihieh the angry mob at Denmark had
from lynching several entirely innocent
persons, would make them see the danger
of their course, and lead them to leave
the courts to satisfactorily determine
the guilt of the prisoner, and execute
him legally.
It is a matter of grave doubt whether
innocent persons are not frequently
butchered by lynchers, and haring been
so positive of the guilt of others who
were proven innocent, it would seem that
the people of Denmark would have re
frained from such a possibility. Mobs are
never excusable or justifiable, even when
they act on the sudden passion and in
dignation of the moment, but. when there
has l)eei) time for coaler judgment to as
sert itself, such lawlessness is especially
to be condemned.
We admit that the '‘rime was a heinous
one, richly deserving death, but with
the prisoner in the hands of the la-w,
und all the machinery of the courts in.
the possession of people who have
outraged the laws, there is no excuse
for a lynching. The prisoner could have
been givert a fair trial by a properly
constituted court, and there was no pos
sible chance of his escape if proven
guilty. If he could not be proven guilty
he ought not to be punished. Our people
must down these lawless lynchings, and
uphold the dignity of the courts and tue
majesty of the law.
