ATLANTA’* MANV NEEDS.
Atlanta is in want of numerous manu
facturing industries, among which may be
enumerated the following: Agricultural
implements, all kinds; boots and shoes;
broomsand brushes ; carriages; cars, rail
road ami street; clothing,all kinds ; cooper
age, all kinds; cutlerly, all kinds; canning,
fruits and vegetables; cotton goods, all
kinds; edge tools, a’.’ kinds; furniture,
general; furniture, chair; flour mills;
glass, all kinds; hardware, building, all
kinds; hardware, saddlery; hosiery and
knit goods; hats ami caps; ink of all
kinds; leather, finished; mantels, slate
and marble; mattresses and spring beds;
machinery, all kinds; pickles, prrtterves
and sauces ; roofing ami rooting materials;
•addlery ami harness; stoves, all kinds;
soap and candles; steam heating appara
tus; sewing machines; tobacco, all forms;
vinegar; woodenware; wagons; woolen
goods, all kinds.
The linos named are mainly those which
may be regarded as necessities, and which
the wan’s of the consumer compel him to
buy, whether the times are good or bad.
The Manufacturers' Association lias
adopted the policy of encouraging the
establishment of the industries named,
which, with suitable capital ami proper
management, cannot fail of success.
The advantages of Atlanta as the manu
facturing center of the Cotton States may
be briefly stated as follows :
Ist. The railway center of the Cotton
States.
2. A location in the heart of the cotton
belt, with an elevation of 1,085 feet above
sea level, giving a cool, healthful and in
vigorating climate.
3. The natural climatic trade center of
the Cotton States.
The Cotton .States embrace an area of
692,000 square miles, with a population of
14,000,000.
A few manufacturing establishments in
this vast territory cannot supply a tithe of
the wants of the millions who occupy it,
offering a wonderfully profitable field for
the northern manufacturer with his sagac
ity, energy, experience and capital.
The Atlanta Manufacturers’ Association
will take pleasure in answering all inqui
ries from parties seeking information with
a view to locating in Atlanta.
The above is from the special corres
pondence of the Manufacturers’ Record,
published at Baltimore, Md., and is from
the pen of Col. E. Hulbert, Secretary of
the Atlanta Manufacturers’ Association.
It sets forth in a clear and concise manner
Atlanta’s many needs in the manufactur
ing line. The Manufacturers’ Record, as
the special exponent of Southern manu
facturing interests, has a very large circu
lation, and is more generally read by
Northern manufacturers and experts than .
any other publication of the kind in the [
country; and so general an announce-

ment to capitalists of the country as to the
needs of the community must be fruitful
of result. Our Manufacturers’ Associa
tion is doing good work in thus setting
forth not only our wants but the profita
ble openings to the Northern manufac
turer.
rm-: <;o<vi»7r question.
This title would indicate that we intend
ed to say something of the system adopted
by Georgia in dealing will) this unfortu
nate class; but such is not the case. That
system is thoroughly understood and
needs no comment at all. We merely in
tend to call attention to a bill introduced
into the Wisconsin legislature by a Mr.
Egery for the solution of the convict labor
problem which merits careful examina
tion. It includes in its provisions for the
government of prisons some of the best
suggestions which have been made by
students of social science. According to
a brief abstract of the bill, “It provides
for the employment of convicts for the
benefit of such institutions and the coun
ties and state ; that all convicts under the
control of the state and county officers,
and all inmates of reformatory institutions
engaged in manufacturing articles for
general consumption, shall receive quar
terly wages equal to the amount of their
earnings, to be fixed from time to time by
the authorities of the institution, from
which board, lodging and clothing and the
costs of trial shall be deducted, the balance
paid to their families or dependents; in
case none such appear the amount shall
be paid to the convict at the expiration of
the term ot imprisonment ”
There is in this a recognition of the fact
that convicts are human beings and of the
other fact that it is a part of the state’s
object in shutting up criminals to fit them
for an honest life when they are let out.
One of the influences operating to drive
them back to a life of crime is the want
of money and the difficulty of finding em
ployment. It is proper that they should
be supplied with a reasonable sum of
money and if the amount is contingent
upon their earnings while in prison they
will be none the worse prisoners for the
knowledge that they are’working for
themselves. The restriction of their em
ployment to goods which the state needs
in its charitable and penal institutions
may be noted also as obviating most of
the objections brought against the con
tract system which brings low priced con
vict labor into direct competition with free
and honest working men.
Nor is the proposed system merely ex
perimental. for it has been tried with re
sults in Pennsylvania which are so excel
lent that the Illinois legislature has just
epacted a law providing for its introduc
tion into the prisons of that state. Its
manifest merits ought to commend it to
tli<A favorable consideration of every hu
manitarian where the system of legal ser
vitude is in vogue. It is the only feasible
plan we have seen suggested whereby the
true object of judicial punishment, the
vindication of law and the reformation of
the criminal, can be obtained.
CAPITOL CRAYONS.
Wk step a little aside from the usual course
of things, and produce for the benefit of our
readers, the following interesting letter from
the pen of Dr. J. W. Scott, of this city. The
letter is clipped from the St. Lous Christian
Advocate of the 9th inst. No apology is neces
ary for reproducing one so interesting and enter
taining:
John Ruskin won his spurs as an art critic
when fresh from the halls of Oxford. His Mod
ern Painters, his Stones of Venice and such else
of the same trend have secured him a perma
nent place amongst the English classics. In
these latter years he has given a large share of
his attention to Political Economy, and recently
to the Labor Problem. Indeed, there is jnst
now no little solicitude in all circles with refer
ence to this question. Journalists and pam
pleteers are discussing it with more or less ac
rimony of both style and temper.
Henry George and Grand Master Powderly
are becoming notorious, if not famoas. Many
persons who are not particularly nervous are
alarmed at the political outlook; and it may
happen before this generation has p assed away
that these ominous strikes will develop into a
first-class revolution.
It is easy enough to pooh-pooh such prophe
cies, but meanwhile the discontent of the masses
widens and deepens, and in an unlooked for hour
’ the explosion comes and Anarchism or Cvsar
ism is the dreadful alternative.
Mr. Ruskin, to whom we have just referred,
in a late publication—Tide and Time —considers
the question from both a Scriptural and com
mon sense standpoint, and reaches what appears
to us the eminently just conclusion, that if set
tled at all without the use of dynamite, in must
be done on the basis of the Golden Rule. Dr.
Hawthorne, a distinguished Bcpti t minister,
has advanced similar views in a Tecent sermon.
Our young friend, Rev. Howard Crumley, told
us a tew days ago that he was studying the
question. That is commendable. The pulpit
cannot utterly ignore the issue, and yet it would
be well for clergymen, old and young, to keep in
mind that the simple preaching of the Gospel is
the mightiest agency for the uplifting of the
masses.
We are indebted to Colonel Stocks, an excel
lent layman of this city, fora late issue of Zion’s
Herald. It contains some appreciative notices
on Sam Jones, and shows that the great evan
gelist has deeply impressed the people of the
’■Hub.” As to literary merit the Herald is
quite up to its standard when it was conducted
by Gilbert Haven. It savors less, however, of
the pronounced Negrophilism of the Garrison
and Darker school. For some years we have
had no little journalistic twaddle about a “New”
South. The prospect for a “New” North is
quite as promising. A very slight knowledge
of history and of the great law of continuity of
species would teach these political optimists
that their plans are Utopian and their predic
tions not more reliable than Vennor’s weather
prophecies. The differences between the two
civilizations (North and South) are radical, and
will remain when Bartholdi’s statue of Liberty
shall have become as absolete as Cleopatra’s
needle or the Colossus of Rhodes. Meanwhile
George W. Cable may continue bis caricatures
cf the Creoles and his gainful jeremiads on the
wrongs of the fr- edmen. As an offset Colonel
Grady will, we trust, live to enjoy many more
New England society banquets. Brother Dunlap,
whom you know as the late Commissioner ot
Education, has recently returned from Colum
bia, S. C., where he received at one time about
seven hundred members of the A. M. E. Church
in America. This reminds us of what Bishop
Key told us of scooping up an entire presiding
elder’s district of the M. E. Church in Texas.
Such achievements indicate anything but a
“New” South in the Bostonian sense. My ven
erable confrere, Dr. Edwards, twite this corre
spondent on the brevity of his letters. We
know Dr. Edwards but slightly, but we under
stand well enough he is genial, dapper clergy
man of the Old Dominion stamp, a facile writer
and ready speaker. When Macauley said of
a certain two volume biography of a very com
mon place individual that its size was better
suited to the Antediluvian age when men lived
several hundred yeais than to modern times
when three score and ten was the allotted term
of human life, be uttered a truth that deserves
frequent restatement.
The coming of Judge Finch, the far-famed
Temperance orator, is an event of great local
interest. His address last Sunday afternoon
at the Opera House was greatly enjoyed by a
very large audience, and it is thought will im
part a fresh impetus to the Prohibition move
ment. Whilst the consumption of whiskey has
been greatly lessened in the city by recent pro
hibitory legislation, yet our city map is dotted
with wine-rooms that exist by the cheaply pur
chased grace of the present license law. It may
be true as has been quaintly said that “the vine
is not one of the Devil’s inventions,” vet its
product, except, for sacrimental or medicinal
purposes ought not to be tampered with. What
is worse than wine-rooms, are in most cases the
old-time doggeries with a slight circumbendi
bus. Our Prohibition leaders are intent on their
extirpation, and we heartily bid them Godspeed.
Folios must give way to duodecimos, long
winded homilies to short sermons, and even Dr.
Edwards’ capital letters are good in an inverse
ratio to their length. John Sterling, the ablest
editor of the London Times, seldom wrote more
than half column editorial and yet it was talked
of at the Paris bourse and closely canvassed at
St. Petersburg. Every newspaper writer should
carry a pocket condenser.
Dr. Morrison has been with us now only a few
weeks and his preaching has become the town
talk. His congregations are immense and a
goodly number have been already received into
the church. He is also indedefatlgable in pas
toral visitation. In all respects he is showing
himself “a workman that needeth not be
ashamed.”
The death of Chief Justice Jackson you have
noted with suitable comments. It would be
difficult to estimate his worth to the churches
in this city and to the conference at. large. The
Lord be gracious to to his stricken family.
We had a novelty last week in the shape of a
bench and poultry show. It seems to have been
well furnished and liberally patronized. We
trust it may contribute to a reduction in the
prices of eggs and turkeys, of which this corre
spondent is particularly fond. Like our old
friend, Rev. G. J. Pierce, of blessed memory,
we have no great relish for “fried chicken" and
as little fancy for dogs of either high or low de
gree. That part of the performance has no
attraction for us.
I was near forgetting the advent of the Salva
tion Army. At present the organized force is
but a corporal’s detail and the movement seems
designed for a reconnoissance more than for
actual conllict.
We have attended none of their services, and
have but little knowledge of their method here
or elsewhere. We doubt if we have read fifty
lines of all that has been published of their ope
rations. It is possible to conceive of a move
ment of the sort that prudently managed might
be productive of much good in the larger cities.
And while we are no great admirers of mere
ecclesiasticism, we confess to grave doubt as to
the vitality of evangelistic work outside the
church. The church was divinely instituted
and is God’s ordinance for the world’s conver
sion and hitherto and henceforth other schemes
have proved and are likely to prove of little
permanent value.
Many brethren are inclined to look favorably
upon the movement, but all have agreed that
the time has not yet come for pulpit recognition.
What as some claim has accomplished a good
wnk in Londen, Liverpool and other great cen
ters, may not be adapted to Atlanta and kindred
localities. In our judgment it is wise to wait
and see future developments.
Payne’s Chapel and Evans’ Chapel are both
planning for better and larger houses of wor
ship. The former is an offshoot of First church.
The latter, the oldest daughter of Trinity. The
mother churches will doubtless give them sub
stantial aid.
At the last preachers’ meeting a committee
consisting of J. W. Lee, W. F. Glenn and W. J.
Scott submitted a memorial paper concerning
the life and character of Judge Jackson, which
was unanimously adopted and ordered to be
published.
One resolution suggested an annual sermon
commemorative of the distinguished dead on
the duties and responsibilities of Christian lay
men.
If properly observed it will benefit the living
and at the same time honor the memory of one
“whose praise is in all the churches.’*
Bread at the Insane Asylum.
A writer in the Milledgeville Union and Re
corder speaking of the insane asylum says :
“Three thousand biscuit for breakfast” sounds
prettv loud to a newspaper man or a hungry
tramp, but I saw Will Stanley make more than
that this msrning, and they were all consumed
at breakfast. He used a whole barrel of flour
to make them, but made them by machinery,
however, and bad a man to help. Yet it took
onlv about three-quarters of an hour to tnake,
bv exact count, threS thousand, three hundred
and forty-four. I" addition to that he makes
six hundred and thirty loaves of light bread
every morning. He is a very rapid baker, and
asking me to time him I found that he made
there six hundred and thirty loaves in just forty
eight minutes. In addition to that they make
in the main kitchen twenty-four hundred pones
of corn bread dailr, twelve hundred twice a day,
to say nothing of what is made in the male and
female convalescent and the negro kitchens. So
in bread alone we see that the State has a pret
ty large family to feed.

Brother Dana is correct if he means Atlanta
beer. Fifteen cents for a pint bottle, half fu’l
very warm, and drank in a closet with one eye
watching for a peeler, is the way it is sold here.
AN EXHIBITION OF UNSELFISHNESS.
The Montgomery Evening Capital publishes
the following as the naked truth :
The charity ball in New York was alleged to
be for the purpose of getting clothes for the
poor, but a man that was there says that the
ladies who dar.ced needed clothes worse than
anybody he bad seen in a month.
The ladies wished to show Low unselfish they
were. With but little clothing for themselves,
they were working to clothe others.

Gentlemen : Up to two years ago I had
had a severe case of sciatic rheumatism for
three years. I tried the best physicians
and medicines, but without getting any
permanent relief. Finally I tried Swift’s

ished a dozen bottles, I was entirely well,
and I have not felt a single pang of rheu
matism from that day to this.
Yours respectfully,

Gentlemen —After I had rheumatism

S. It at once built up my health and the
rheumatic pains were allayed, and finally
disappeared entirely. I regard it as the

bring my system up to the best condition
whenever run down by sickness or over
work. I have come to regard S. S. S. as
a necessary, householu medicine.
