ALDED ABROAD.
GREAT SPEECH BY MR. BROBSTON.
Vfealth of llor Industrial!, Mines and
Quarries are lleyond
Computation.
1 CONTINUED FROM OUlt LAST 1BSDE.]
There are places tlmt a few years
ago was primeval ns when Indians
hold sway, that now boast electric
lights, waterworks, paved streets, pub
lic buildings, schools, churches and
all the conveniences of modern times.
There is one city of more than eight
thousand souls less than one hundred
and fifty miles from where I live ihat is
possessed of those conveniences, and
yet, less than five years ago this place
■was in dense wilderness, no railroads
in 20 miles, aud neighbors lived eight
miles apart.
One county in the district in which
I live has increased its tax values
$R,000,000 in three years, and every
town and hamlet Is growing while ag
riculture is being pushed into the pine
forests, yet just, think of it, my con
gressional district has 11,770 square
miles, and less than 200,000 popula
tion. Wo could support 2,000,000
people in the same territory.
To onr northern and eastern friends,
let me say right here, if you seek rest,
and recreation, if you seek health and
pleasure, if you are looking for a place
to turn a nimble penny, or if you are
looking for great enterprises that re
quire millions to handle, you can get
suited in Georgia. Not only is oiirs
a land of sunshine and peaches and
early vegetables and watermelons, but
along with the entire south we are
“a Jfiud of pith and great moment.”
? In nmmifncturiug we nro already
putting our goods into New Englnnn;
one illustration in point is .a towel
factory at Griffin in the centre of our
state; it is said to be the largest towel
factory in the United, nil of the em
ployes are Georgians, and Mr. Kin
kaid, its president, told me recently
that they have a fine trade in Boston,
Ma“s. Think of it ; the people of Bos
ton using Georgia made towels!
Not only are we rich in minerals,
and agriculture, amFhorticulture, and
climate, but Georgia is rich in water
power to turn the machinery for man
ufacturing. Not only does her myriad
streams go fretting to the sea, inviting
the manufacturer to convert his raw
product along these banks, but under
neath the ground there flows to the
sea a vast crystal fountain held as a
reservoir for the uso of man; ho taps it
at will by means of an artesian well;
these wells spout a constant stream of
great fore, going in some instances as
high ns forty feet in tho air; the power
from these might be used for light
machinery aud small industries.
Where it has been tried it is cheaper
than coal at the mines, wood at the
forest, cheaper than steam or electri
city can ever be made.
In the adjoining county to where I
live is a small grist, mill, a rice mill, a
syrup mill and a small machine shop,
nil run by no other power than afforded
by two small artesian wells.
In cotton manufacturing permitted ’tis true
Georgia has our Carolina
sisters to lend, and more of their
streams are set to the music of the
loom than are ours. Each of the Cnr
olinns have more than one and a quar
ter million spindjes, while Georgia has
but little more than 750,000, yet it is
not lack of advant ages that has made us
laggards in this race, but it is because
we have not taken hold of our oppor
tunities; it is because we have been
content to rest on our oars while
others reached out for immigration
aud capital, and if we do not mind wo
•will permit the palm of supremacy to
drift away and be caught by other
hands.
Georgia has done probably less to
advertise her resources than any other
state, I mean printed matter at the
state’s expense. I doubt if there is
even a pamphlet at our state e/ipitol
for distribution, and you will probably
find it easier to get. information as to
the resources of,most any other state
than ours. North Carolina, South
Carolina, Tennessee, Florida and Al
abama are more wide-awake advertis
ers than is Georgia, and they are reap
ing the reward which comes from in
telligence.
The great colonies which have come
to Georgia in the past few years; the
old soldiers at Fitzgerald, the Shakers
in Glynn county, the Germaus at Tal
lapoosa, and the Minnianites at Salt
Springs,and many other colonies,have
all come after having their attention
directed by private parties.
We need more public enterprises in
Georgia, we need more citizens like
these people of Southern Pines; and
they are eomiug; it may be slowly at
first but they are coming, and it will
not be long until we will double our
manufacturing and multiply every
other output tenfold. The entire
south is on the mend.
I want to read you a few lines from
that old, staid journal of conservatism,
the New York Financial Chronicle. It
has been looking into the rich south
ern highlands, aud has become won
derfully impressed. “In the moun
tain region,” it says, “covering the
centre of the states east of the Miss
issippi. extending from Pennsylvania
into Northern Alabama and Georgia,
and embracing an area of some 150,000
square miles, is more natural wealth,
more basis to sustain dense population,
and profitably employ it thau can bo
found in any million square miles of
land lying in a solid body elsewhere
in the world,” and this.eastern journal
of finance Roea on to give good reasons
and facta to sustain this broad state
ment, and concludes with a most flat
tering prediction for the future of the
south.
Rapidly the changes come in this
great world of ours. The great tide
of immigration which has for so long
rolled westward, has begun turning to
tho south, Eastern manufacturers
have caught on to our advantages.
Look what Germany did in twenty
years of industrial development, it is
marvelous, hut why should we not do
more Jn half the time? The south
produces about sixty per cent of all
the cotton in the world, and manufac
lnres abont three per cent; Great
Britain, France and Germany have
nearly 80,000,000 spindles, New En
gland nearly 20,000,000, and the en
tire south less than 4,000,000. For
eigners each year by converting our
lint cotton into manufactured pro
ducts give it an added value of near
three-quarters of a billion dollars.
How long would it take this amount
of money to make the south a rich
country? New England has begun
waking up to the situation, and is
moving old mills cr building new
ones here. A machinery drummer
coming up on the train with me said
that sixty per cent of all cotton ma
chinery placed in mills in the United
.States in the past two years have gone
into southern mills. The Yankee is
ooming south and bringing prosperity
with him, and in all the parts of trade
we are sharing it also.
In 1880 Georgia had but 28 mills
with 1251,000 spindles,while a few days
ago the Southern railroad in its in
dugtrial publication claims thirty-six
mills in Georgia on its line alone, with
52(5,000 spindles. Why should they
not come? New England grew rich
hauling our cotton thousands of miles,
getting coal from one place, iron from
another and raw material from an
other; she lias waxed in strength and
power until she may almost be called
the mistress of the world.
But the Arkwright club, which
speaks for New England’s cotton in
terest, lias said something significant
when it declared that “the more con
ditions are studied,” the conditions
under which cotton is manufactured at
the north and south, “the wider seems
that difference, ” and in making report
the committee frankly declared “the
chief difficulty isdn finding words suf
ficiently strong to express the hope
lessness of prolonged competition with
tjie south under present conditions.
So yon see we are moving steadily on
and the rate will increase as we move.
Of 1(5,000,000 pounds of cotton
goods freighted over the Chicago and
Northwestern railroad last year bound
for trade in tho Orient, every pound
of it was manufactured in the south.
Beyond the dark hills of her indus
trial past rises the gleam of morning
and a new life inspires this old land;
gradually we are learning to convert
our lint cotton into manufactured pro
ducts.
When we learn this lesson well, and
learn to convert it on machinery turn
ed out of our own workshops, made of
iron dug from our own mines, when
we learn to utilize our own coal and
water power, in thus making machin
ery to make tho cloth; when we
learn that it is easier and far bet
ter to ship cheap furniture than
cheap wood, then, indeed, we will
have the world at our feet, and the
new century will open on Dixie; then
we will have ships ou eve ry sea, sail
ing from southern ports, laden with
the products of our own mines and our
own factories. While every farm on
the hillside and every farm in the val
ley will laugh in the gladness of har
vest ever to be found in a home mar
ket; and above it all and beyond it all,
is the grand yet beautiful thought that
tho new century will open on a united
people with their faces all'turned to
the future. One hope, one thought,
respected one prosperity, oneffiag, and that flag
wherever known, and known
ou every sea.
MUNICIPALITY SOLI) OUT.
Whole Town Placed On Wheels and
Transferred To a Rival burg.
The town of Mountain View, Okla.,
that was organized in a day, broke
another record Sunday.
There has existed a rival town a
mile and a half west and it was deem
ed advisable to consolidate them.
Oakdale, the rival, was puieiiused out
right for $5U,:iS0, placed on wheels ami
started on the road to Mountain A lew.
This is probably the first ease of
buying a whole town that the annals
of the west records.
A MOTHER’S HORRIBLE DEED.
Asphyxiates Her Two Children and
Dies With Them.
At New York Sunday afternoon
Mrs. Johanna Schilling, thirty-five
years of age, and her two daughters,
Gertrude, aged ten, and Edna, aged
eight, were found dead in their tene
ment home. All had been asphyxia
ted by gas, doubtless turned on by the
mother with the idea of murdering
her two children and committing
suicide.
The tragedy evidently grew out of
a quarrel between tne woman and
her husband.
PROniSES PROTECTION.
Germany Will Defend Spanish Coaling
Stations In New Purchase.
A Madrid special says: Germany, it
is announced, pays 25,000,000 pesetas
for the Caroline, Palos and Marianne
islands, Spain retains three coaling
stations, one in each group, aud Ger
many undertakes to defend these sta
tions in case of war.
Germany, in addition, grants Spain
the most favored rational treatment in
Germany and in the colonial islands.

A HOT ROAST FOR GERMAN PRO
FESSOR HAASKARL.
WILLIAM REFUTES UN OLD THEORY
Profpusor Claims That Negroes Have No
Soul and the Bartow Man Is Aroused
At the Assertion.
Professor Haaskarl, Dr. Haaskarl,
Itev. Mr. Haaskarl, of the Lutheran
church of Chambersburg, Pa., is said
to be a learned man—a scientist, an
authority on ethnology, but like all
German philosophers his investiga
tions lack breadth. German education
is generally limited to a certain line of
study and thought and every other
line is ignored or sidetracked. The
parent chooses his son’s calling or
profession in the boy’s early youth
and his education is strictly on that
line. If it is music he pursues that
calling diligently and devotes from
twelve to fifteen hours a day to it. I
knew a young German who studied
nothing but bugs and another who
made a specialty of snakes. Before
the civil war we had an accomplished
civil engineer in Rome who thought
that cotton grew on cottonwood trees
and had to be picked by climbing lad
ders. He dident have the knowledge
of a ten-year-old boy about anything
exee P t engineering and he didn’t care
for anything else. One German doc
tor will study tuberculosis and the
germ theory and nothing else, while
another will devote his life to the eye
or the ear. These onelineners are of
great benefit to science and to man
kind, for they probe to the bottom and
never give up, but their very earnest
ness in one direction prevents their
acquiring very broad views of life as
it is.
Now’, Dr. Haaskarl has suddenly
discovered that the negro is the miss
ing link—the link that Darwin sought
for, but never found—the link that
completes tho chain that begins with
the monkey, then the babboon, then
the ourangotang, then the gorilla,then
the negro, and last the white man.
Therefore he says that the negro has
no soul to save and it is folly to preach
Christianity to him. I reckon that
the learned doctor is a young man or
not passed middle age, or he would
have known that this theory of his is
no new thing—no discovery, for s–me
thirty years ago a scientist in Tennes
see asserted the same thing and wrote
a book on it and called it “Ariel.” The
press says that this theory qf.Jche and
learned doctor has been boldly
publicly announced and has created
great excitement and indignation
among the northern negroes. The
missing link has raised a howl around
the doctor and he had better not cir
culate too loosely among them. If
they are not human beiugs then, of
course, they are beasts and must be
looked after by tho society for the pre
vention of cruelty to animals. This
will very much enlarge the business of
that society and we may look for a
northern wing of it to come down here
to stop this lynching business. But
if the negro is a beast and has no soul
to be saved, bis premature death would
seem to be of less consequence. So
let the Pennsylvania row go on. I am
glad that,we are not in it.
But I would like to get our darkey,
Bob Smith, after that German. Bob
is a smart negro and has a big mouth
full of pearly teeth that he shows on
nil occasions, for he loves fun and is
always fceady for^a ioke. His boss
took great delight jin teasing Bob and
one day said to him, “Bob, wlmt are
you niggers going to meeting so much
for? You will lose your crop running
up to the cross roads every day to that
nigger meeting. Don’t you know- that
ft nigger hasent got any soul, so what
| good is going to meeting to do to
von ?”
And Bob said, “Look here, boss,
you say dat a nigger hasent got no
soul?” “Why, of coui’86 not. I’ve
got it here printed in a book.” “Well,
now, look here, boss, has a white man
got a soul?” “Why,of course he has,”
said the boss. “The Bible tells you
that,”
“Well, now. boss, tell me dis: If a
white man got a soul aud a nigger
i ain't got no soul, how about a mu
j latter?”
Bob was telling all this to me and
when I asked what the boss said about
the mulatto he laughed and said: “He
was powerful sot back, I tell you. He
scratched his head aud say, ‘Well, he
lowed as how a mulatter had about
half a soul, f Jt and Bob laughed im
mensely.
I was ruminating about this and I
would like to hear the learned doctor
expand it. Will he say that Fred
Douglass and Booker Washington
havent got souls or will he say that
half a soul became incorporated into
each by amalgamation? Where will
he draw the color line? Has an Indian
got a soul? How about a quadroon or
an octoroon or a 1(5 to 1? How about
the copper-colored tribes and the
ginger cakes that Livingston found in
Africa and whom he declared to be
almost the equals of the white race in
moral perceptions and in kindness and
courage? Then there are the dark
skinned Moors and Castilians. What
is a negro anyhow? When I was ir
Tampa I visited a large cigar factory
and saw 409 Cubans in one long ro<xm
all seated at their little desks rolling
the leaf tobacco into smoking sba.’pes.
They were of all hues in complexion
from nearly white to nearly blaei, for
their ancestors had been crosse* and
mixed in blood so often and Howfmuch sA long
they had no racial color.
of a soul did each one have? And'
here are the Chinamen, who have not i
are allot a color, but ,re
not white. Have they ROt .onl.? Ami
there arc the Japanese, and last of all
ire ,iarter ,ki ” ,h0 “ lhe
If Adam and Eve were Jews then
have we the pure whites got souls? For
till 1 " nrz
color line? Livingston says that there
is just as much difference between a 1
colof and race traits Indian as there and is white be
tween au American a j |
man and that the different tribes vary
in customs and language and laws and |
superstition as much as do the differ- j
ent tribes of our Indians. If a black
negro has no soul, has a red Indian I
got one? If the civilized about Cherokee the or j f
Creek has a soul how savage
Comanche?
Dr. Haaskarl says that the negro
went into the ark as a beast and is a
beast yet. Some are, I reckon. My
friend Maxwell, of Arlington, proves oth
that Sam Hose was, and there are
ers o‘f different colors who are worse
than any beasts we know of and whom
we hope have no souls to be tormented
in the fires of hell and therefore
’J°£ £*
upward and the spirit of a beast goeth j
downward into the earth.
But this theory of the doctor will
not bear a serious thought. If he had
confined it to physical structure of
the imported African, whom New Eng
land rum paid for and brought over
here, it might have some force, but he
can’t investigate the soul or where it
came from or whither it is going.
That is a mystery past our ken. There
is an aged woman here whom everybody
knows as Old Mamma Heyward who
is old enough to have come from Af
rica and looks as much like a baboon
as possible, but if there is a true Chris
tian in Cartersville we all believe she is
who. Though ninety years of age, she j
takes a back seat in the white folks’ I
church every Sabbath and rejoices in ;
the service. She has faithfully Served
four generations – and is serving ° yet.
„ . , i It • i. •
It T She has no soul now perhaps IS
possible for the Creator to give her
one when she dies so that she may en
ter tha' rest that remaiueth for the
people of God. And we ,.,*>! know many
negroes who . give . as much evidence OI
having souls as do the Christians who
are white, but most of this black gen
eratiou are headed for the chaingang.
That same merry-hearted Bob was sent
to the chaingang for killing another
negro, which he dident mean to do,
for it was a willing fight and lie says
now that “Dar is some as mean nig
gers in the de chaingang as dar is out
en dar.”
And tl*sre is the faithful Tip who
was born ours and who loves us all j
yet. The slave who grew up with our
older children and cared for them and
they cared for him—the trusted friend
who watched me loug and tenderly
while I was down with fever in the
Virginia army. What about Tip hav
iug no soul? But Tip is a gingercake;
be is not a black man. Tip and his
parents are of that peculiar color that
Livingston ranks so high among the
native tribes. The Guinea negro is
more like the missing link and they were
the best servants in the world except
their desire to pick up little things
that wouldn’t be missed. An original
Guinea negro whose blood has not
been crossed is as docile as a shepherd
dog. Now this startling deliverance
of Dr. Haaskarl shows that he knows
nothing practically about the negro
and is imimed with the prevailing
northern prejudice against him. He
should come down here aud attend
one of their shouting meetings and
see the women carried out in a swoon.
