Retributive Justice-
Fall River, Mass, tbe leading man
ufacturing city of New England, has
lost sboul four per cent of its popula
tion during tbe past year. According to
various authorities this is attributed to
tbe shutting down of cotton mills and
it is southern competition that has
caused them to shut down.
newspapers of that section are
viewing this condition of affairs with
serious alarm and are asking if a like
fate, a loss of population and of busi
ness, Is to befall all of New Euglsnd.
In discussing this question it has been
intimated, not by New England news
papers, however, that something like
retributive justice was being dealt out
to this puritanical section.
New England was the roost blatant
agitator in the movement towaids
freeing slaves; she wae the hotbed of
abolitionists, the one section which
presumed to lay down a moral stand
ard to be lived up to by another. She
busied herself to destroy the value of
private property in tbe south, and to
punish us for insisting that we bad a
legal and property right in tbe slaves
which years before she bad sold us.
New England accomplished her pur
pose so far as freeing the slaves was
concerned, and in inflicting a loss of
hundreds ol millions of dollars upon
tbe south.
The reorganized south is now hav*
ing its revenge, not from malioe or
through any effort to punish it's old
enemy, but because the inherent nat
ural advantages bestowed by tbe Cre
ator upon thio favored section are
surely taking awary from bleak New
England’s hills her moat profitable
industries. The new condition of af
faire, forced upon the south, compelled
her to take advantage of Nature's
beneficence. New England was the
prime factor iu bringing about this
etale of affaire, and now she can not
well complain that she io tbe loser
thereby. The quickest way out of tbe
trouble is for her mill owners to bow
to the inevitable and hasten to move
their plants south—Columbus En

sewer out near Mr. Idus Drewry**
residence Wednesday afternoon. H*
turned it over to Officer Flynt, who is
endeavoring to find tbe ofcner, but
there is nothing iu it to assist him.
It contains a lot of clothing, a razor,
mag and raaor strap and several par
pore, but they give no intimation as
to whom they belong.
Ode of th* papers was a subpoena
for Wash Milner to appear at Pike

How the valise came in a sewer
in West Griffin and to whom it belongs
is a mystery Officer Flynt is now try
