intog Her Every Opportunity.
Baltimore, Not. L—Preliminary fig-
ores of the oensus of 1900 for four typi¬
cal southern states are held by The Man¬
ufacturers’ Record in this week’s ittne at
indicating a most gratifying progress
industrially w the south during the
past 10 year*.
l’be figures show an increase in the
value of manufactured products in
Florida of 109 per cent, in Alabama of
61 per cent, in Georgia of 54 per cent
and in Mississippi of 116 percent during
the decade.
The fact that while there has been a
slight apparent decrease In the actual
number of industrial establishments in
four of the leading cities of Georgia,
there has been an increase in the
amount of wages, the capital invested
and the value of the products, and an
increase of 75 per cent in the number of
establishments in the whole state, is
held to be in harmony with what seems
to be the general tendency- in- the south
and in the country, a rapid rise of in¬
dustries in new localities paralleling the
centralization of some of those at long-
established centers.
Manufacturing In Mississippi.
This rapid rise appears in the increase
of 180 per cent in ten years in the num¬
ber of manufacturing establishments m
cultural Mississippi, so long occupied in agri¬
pursuits, slower to enter the in¬
dustrial field, but now beginning to feel
and to reveal statistically the material
results of systematic railroad building,
especially during the past five years,
with a consequent opening np of timber
resources, the development of truck,
grow.ng, and the increase in wookwork-
ing plants and kindred undertakings.
This development will undoubtedly
be found .o be marked and on similar
lines in other states, such as Texas and
West Virginia, where railroad construc¬
tion has opened new fields for the miner
and the lumberman. In the meantime
committees in other states ore meeting
their opportunities. At Wilmington, N,
C.. for instance, the construction of a
$160,000 sewerage system, a $300,000
pressed brick plant and an $80,00o saw
mill will show (hat the community is
alive.
Kaolin Plant to Cost $75,000.
At Waynesviile, N. O., abont $75,000
will be invested in a modern plant for
taking out kaolin and corundum.
At Louisville, Ky., the owners of a
boiler plant have determined upon the
erection pud equipment of an entirely
new plaut to cdst in all more than $237,-
000, the building to be of steel and the
site to be in South Louisville, To a
rolling mill at Ooviugtou,' Ky., a oorrli¬
gated plant latest is to be added, equipped
with the improvements, A com¬
pany is being organized to develop the
water in High Fall}, near Griffin, Ga.,
for industrial enterprises.
A dispatch to The Manufacturers’
Record from Birmingham, Ala., says
that the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail¬
road company contemplates building a
merchant steel plant. the That is bat one of

Columbia Citizens Against Koester’s
Appointment as Collector.
Charleston, Nov. 1.— Politicians in
Charleston were startled yesterday by a
report from Columbia that leading oitl-
sens were uniting in a petition to Presi-
dent Roosevelt urging him not to issue
a commission to George R. Koester, re¬
cently appointed collector of internal
revenue, for the reason that he had fired
the first shot at a negro who was being
strung to a tree by a lynching party.
The statement is made that affidavits
have bqeu secured from newspaper men
and others who were at the lynching,
in which it is alleged that the ball from
Koester’s revolver helped to put the ne¬
gro out of business. The Republicans
say that Editor Gonzales of the Colum¬
bia State, long known as Koester’s per¬
sonal eeemy, and the bitter opponent of
Senator McLaurin, who secured Koes¬
ter’s appointment, is the prime mover
in the light. The day alter the appoint¬
ment was announced The State, among
other things, said:
“Perhaps it was President Roosevelt’s
sporting blood that caused him to choose
George R. Koester for collector of in¬
ternal levenne. Koester has, not like
the president, a record for potting coug¬
ars and Spaniards, bnt he is a fellow-
sportsman. He has been known to claim
that he discharged the first shot at a
’nigger’ when that object of the chase
was strung np by lynchers near thisoity
a few years ago. ’’
