•The remedy for this a| parent.
I Let the south manufacture the
raw material, and all the expense
of converting t.he fleecy staple into
goods for the consumer will be
saved to thiff country.
But the question comes up in
the mind of the investor, “Does it
pay to run a cotton factory ?”
The report of the Department of
Labor at Washington gives ub the
following facts: Massachusetts
has 163 cotton mills, with an in
vested capital of $112,561,310,
which produce goods the profits of
which amount to $36,426,626, and
this amount is produced by an out
lay in wages of only $26,460,493.
This makes a net gain of $9,966,-
188, or 82.9 per cent. In that state
labor is high, for the average sala
ry of the employers of those cot
ton mills is $460.26 per annum, or
$7.71 per week. Yet, with high
labor, the net gain is 829 per cent.
But the cotton mills produce 72
per cent, on the amount paid out

HKn from the time it loaves the
producer’s hands until it goes into
the hands of the manufacturer.
With factories enough to manufac
ture our crop, there would be saved
in this one item of expense alone (
$40,000,000 to the south. Thiß
saving, added to the profits to in
vested capital, would be an im
mense gain to our southland.
Take a bale of cotton and con
vert it into yarn and the value of
bale is enhanced two to three
hundred per cent. When the yarn
is converted into cloth or under
wear, it increases in the same ra
tio. So that instead of the bale of
cotton being worth $25, it will
bring from SBOO to S4OO. With
factories here all this gain would
accrue to this country.
Beside this gain, the labor of
converting this raw material worth
$25 into a marketable commodity
Lworth S4OO would be compelled tc
be supported from our gardens,
dairies and stores. The farmers
would find ready sale for all the
products of the farm, from the hen
egg up to a cow, at about double
what he is able to get for it now.
So if we would hold our position
in the world’s wealth producing
countries our only hope is in cot
ton factories sufficient to consume
all our raw material, then cotton
will be King.
When cotton went up last week
and was selling around 8 cents,
the Constitution came out in a
long-winded editorial, claiming
for itself all the credit for the ad
vance. Since the editorial ap
peared the market has slooped off
and cotton is now bringing only j
about 7 cents. However, we sup- j
pose the Journal is responsible for i
. the decline. Great is the Consti

Sunday afternoon in the Metho
dist church in Suwanee occurred
one of the prettiest marriages of
the season, when Mr. Emmett Wes
ley Brogdon and Miss Clio LaHatte
were made man and wife
The church was beautifully dec
orated with autumn leaves, ferns
and potted plants.
Promptly at the appointed hour
the ushers, Messrs, R.E. Johnston
and Lawreston Harris, marched
down the aisle and took their ap
pointed places, to the strains of
the wedding march, which was
beautifully rendered by Miss Ora
Harris.
The elocution class of Miss La-
Hatte, composed cf ten of our
sweetest girls, acted as brides
maids for their loved teacher. They
were Misses Agnes Harris, Mabry
Verner, Mabel King, Bessie Brog
don, Johnnie King, Stell Harris,
Grace Little, Bertha Brogdon, Ed
na Harris and Naomi Johnston.
They wore their college uniform
of blue and whit", and carried bo
quets of white chrysanthemums
and asparagus,fernstied with white
ribbons.
Mi9B Luoile LaHatte was maid
of honor, and entered with Dr.
Little. They were immediately
followed by the happy pair, who
took their places in front of the
altar, and in a most impressive
manner Mr. Hodges, the pastor of
the church, pronounced them one.
The bride was unusually hand
some, in a tailor-made gown of
castor cloth, with hat to match.
She carried an armfull of brides
roses During the ceremony “Oh
Promise Me,” was played.
The bride is the principal of the
school at this place, and is a high
ly accomplished young lady, and
will be a great acquisition to so
cial Suwanee.
The groom is a prominent young
business man of this town.
After the ceremony the bridal
party were entertained at tea at
the home of the groom’s parents.
