NEWSPAPER SUBSCRIPTION KATES.
There are among the reading
public those who, without taking
time to consider the justice of their
position, assume that because there
emanate from the gigantic publish
ing houses of the cities weeklies
that aae furnished at the rate of a
dollar a year, the country publisher
can afford to lUrnish his paper at a
similar price. Now and then one
of these publishers makes what he
possibly believes to be a progres
sive break and puis the price of his
sheet down to meet that of the
cheap city weekly. < >ur experience
and observation both teach us that
the practicability of the procedure
depends solely upon the character
of the journal he furnishes, and no
fact is more dominant in our mind
than the one that it is not possible
for a publisher to furnish a capal%
edited, carefully printed local paper
any ways near the size of the Cou
rant-American at a lower subscrip
tion price than $1.50, without incur
ring a direct loss.
The cheap city weekly is made
up almost entirely of matter that
has previously appeared in the sev
eral daily editions of the week, and
consequently the cost to the pub
lisher, aside from bare incidentals,
is the blank paper and the press
work; hence a dollar affords a nice
profit. The matter for the country
weekly is all prepared for and does
service alone, in one edition. The
city weekly with its columns laden
with a great quantity of reading
contains much that is uninteresting
to the general reader. The local
paper has its individual sphere, and
if it is what it ought to be, is first in
importance to every citizen. A
subscription price that brings u loss
to the publisher cripples his facili
ties for making his paper merito
rious and consequently useful to
the community.
Other state papers of the cast and
character of the Courant-American
maintain the rate of $1.50 —such as
the Newnan Herald, Marietta Jour
nal, Dalton Citizen, Greensboro
Home Journal, and LaGrange Re
porter, and it is alone the little
cross roads weekly, whose editor
hunts or fishes several days of the
week, that is trying to cling to the
waning fallacy of a dollar rate.
Fair, reasonable men are already
commending the action of the Cou
rant-American in re-establishing a
rate commensurate with its present
and contemplated increased merit
and that will help to enable its
publishers to pursue persistently a
policy of push.
Somebody is trying to devise a
dollar the passage of which will be
universal in all countries. About
the best dollar is the one that can
be had when wanted, and when the
average man gets that he is hardly
apt to bother himself much about
its universality.
THE OUTLOOK FUK MANGANESE.
The editors of the Courant-Amer
iean have endeavored to arouse
the people of our county to the point
of appreciating the value of their
manganese lands and have from
time to time prevailed upon them
to give their properties the benefit
of full development, thus securing
for them something like a fair value.
At no distant day the Cartersville
district will furnish most of the
manganese used in this country.
Already we are in the lead and this
year’s shipment will be larger than
those of the celebrated Crimora
mines of Virginia. Of late there
has been considerable activity in
these lands, brought about no doubt
by the efforts of northern steel man
ufacturers to secure to themselves
a future supply of the precious ores.
The North Chicago Rolling Mill
Company and the Carnegies of
Pittsburgh, the two leading steel
makers of this country, have ex
perts In this county today making
every effort to close leases for the
best developed properties, which
they propose to mine extensively
and ship the raw material to their
mills. They are becoming alarmed
over the threatened scarcity of the
ore and are here for the purpose of
securing a future supply. Bearing
directly upon this line, the Ameri
can Manufacturer, of Pittsburgh
discusses the rapid advance in
prices of manganese and the short
ness of the supply. The Manufac
turer says:
One of the mos remarkable “jumps”
in prices in the of the iron trade
is the recent rapid advance in the price
! of SO per cent, ferro-manganese, and to
a loss extent the advance in spiegel. In
the two weeks, from .September 10 to Oc
tober 3, ferro jumped froms(R> to SOO, and
for immediate delivery the price still
remains fOO. The advance in spiegel
was therefore 25 per cent., and in form
30 per eent.
The lowest prices, both of spiegel and
ferro, were at the beginning of the year.
The advance in the price of spiegel has
been from S2B to S4O, and in ferro from
$54.50 to SOO.
It is needless to suggest that this rapid
advance in price is due to the greatly in
creased demand for steel, which has
been far in excess of what was supposed
to be possible. This demand lias found
a small supply, and for immediate de
livery prices have jumped. That pro
ducers of tliis metal do not expect these
to continue, is evidenced by the fact
that the week ferro jumped to SOO it was
offered for January, February and
March (1800)delivery at 578.50 New York,
equal to $Bl Pittsburg. But even $Bl is
a high figure for ferro, and it becomes
an interesting question whether it will
be maintained. This depends upon the
supply of manganese ore.
What are llio prospects as to the future
supply of manganese ores? There is no
question that the outlook is not a good
one. The production of manganese ore
in 1888 was considerably less than in
1887. lii 1887 the production of high
grade manganese ores in the United
States was 34,524 tons. In 1888 it had
fallen to 25,500 tons. There was a re
duced production in ail three of the pro
ducing districts of this country, viz:
Criniora, Virginia, Uartorsville, Gooi
gia, and Batesville, Arkansas. The pro
duction of other countries, measured by
the imports into Europe, which gives
the best, indeed the only available, idea
of production, also fell off in 1888 as
compared with 1887.
Since the Manufacturer publislu and
this article ferro-manganese has
jumped to SIOO per ton, and from
present indications, the end is not
yet. There is no telling where it
will stop. The outlook for a largely
increased supply of manganese ore
large enough to materially reduct
prices is not very good, especially
while the present demand for Bes
semer and open-hearth steel contin
ues, and it is from tins state of af
fairs can every owner of a manga
nese lot in this section chuckle him
self into an ecstacy of glee.
The Cariersville district, as we
have stated, is the future manga
nese district of Hie world. True,
the mining so far haft been of a verj
slip-shod kind, termed “gophei
mining” by the old miners. Tin
surface mining has proven very
profitable and trom the immense
number of the deposits and then
unusual magnitude, there is n<
doubt that mining below the watei
level would be all that could be de
sired. Deep mining has proven
very successful in every instance in
this county. For instance, the shaft
at Citumler Hill, on the Dade Coal
Company’s property, is panning oul
fine. A handful of men are getting
out a car load of clean ore every dav
and have been doing so for sometime.
What has been taken out is scarcely
missed from the mine. It is thus
practically demonstrated that deep
mining will pay here and also de
monstrates that we have plenty of
the ore in this district—a fact, how
ever, not disputed by those that
know.
Now, with the* fact that we are in
the midst of the richest manganese
field in the world, and the demand
for the ore is past supplying, the
question arises, what will our mine
owners eio with their properties*.
They cannot afford to sell them fin
a song and in their undeveloped
state. That would be suicidal. For
eign companies, by owning tin
lands, mining and shipping the ori
north to be manufactured—verily
bottle up what should he tiie bright
est hopes of our people, for it is oui
manganese interest—paramount—
that will carry us to glory and dis
Unction. Juet our manganese lam.
owners get together at once and de
vise some means by which our poo
pie and their best interests will hi
protected. It has been suggested
that a pool be formed and the lands
entire handled by one association
This may be a good idea and it ma\
not—the Courant-Ameriean doe
not deign to say; but one fact i;
certain, our people should awaken
and look out for their manganese
interests.
No doubt if the lands were ul
pooled it would only be a question
of a very short time that arrange
ments could be made for the erec
tion of a ferro-manganese furnace,
on object much to be desired. Sucl.
a furnace would give more charac
ter to our mineral resources and.
prove a bigger bonanza to its owner
than anything that could be started
just now. According to expert tes
timony ferro-manganese can be pro
duced for something under s:io.Qo

my name was freely used. Permit
me to simply explain to those at a
distance.
I delayed the publication of the
article of the Alliance to enable a
respectable number of Alliance
men to have it reconsidered and no
more.
As an Alliance man I was busy
making hay while the sun shone,
mil, as I was importuned to say
what part of the manuscript I ob
jected, I replied several. But to
make hay while the sun shone I
signed the paper in order to get it
before the Alliance believing it
would be rejected or materially
modified.
I never approved, nor intended,
that the action of the Alliance
should go to the public with my
name attached, except as secretary
As much has been said about ve
racity, I don’t care to vindicate
mine through the press, hut simplj
say to the curious to know, come
mil stay a few days in the vicinity
of Cassvilie, ask no questions, hut
keep your eyes and ears open, and
you will learn whose veracity needs
vindication. R. N. Best.
