B1 Ml 1 lit GEOKUIA’S RESOURCES ARC) HER 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. inn itir me 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. — Bill Arp in Atlanta Constitution. Longest Electric Railway.
