THE GREED Of E Bo Cut Short- - Thc Plan Bi icily Outlined in a Clear and Conciso Mannor. Nu WHY, S. C., September 18. EDITORS COU m KU : Thinking that tho columns of your paper are, nt all limes, open for tho discussion of any thing that tends to better tho condi tion of thc people of ( bronco county and the South, I will ask you to al low mo space to give ?ho public a fow thoughts ?k.< to what we need. First. All will agree there should be less cotton or n better price for it. So to got a better price directly we are compelled to plant less ; and to got a better price indirectly we arc compelled to manufacture it. Of thc two propositions I will say, inas much aa it looks like we will not plant ami produce less cotton, the best thing for us to do is for the far mers, thc merchants, bankers, law yers and manufacturers to get to gether and go to building more cot ton mills. Let every farmer that can spare from Hf ty dollars to len thousand dollars put it into a cotton factory. Tho merchants, hankers and all others should do likewise, and thus build in our cotton fields such immense manufacturing estab lishments as to almost consume our entire cotton crop, instead of con suming only 1,399,399 bales, as Mr. Hester puts it in his last annual re port, while tho North and Mast manufacture about 2,260,000 ; mak ing a total in round numbers of only .'5,040,000 bales manufactured in the United States of tho 11,27-1*840 that woro made last year. We export 7,625,840 bales at about 0 cents per pound, and buy it back in ma infao tured goods nil tho way from ten! cents to one dollar per pound. Kor example, we will take embroidery, laces and many other things, and we pay as high as 7f> cents per yard and perhaps it would take 0 or 7 yards to weigh a pound. So you see what those foreigners are making out of us. It is true there is some import ant duty lo be considered, but, after all, they are making a handsome profit, lt is no wonder Kngland is the financial mistress of tho world and her ships carrying tin; goods j made from cotton produced right hero in South Carolina to every quarter ol' tho globe Now, are tho pooplc of the United States, and especially ol' the South, lo continue t<> allow langland to amass her colossal fortunes and con trol tho commerce of tho world ut ouivoxpcnso ? We have (ivory ad vantage in the way of raw material-coal, iron and brcadstuffa. Lot us get together, from Maine to California, from the Creal Lakes to Florida, and see if we can't do better than export 7,000,000 bales of our cotton. Wc should ship 7,000,000 bales of cloth more than we have over done. Until Wi do this langland will continue to con trol tho com moree of thc world, and grow richer at our expense. Now, lhere will soon ho opened books for subscription to the capital stock of a new cotton mill nt West minster. In that event I would nd viso every fanner, merchant, doc tor, lawyer and banker to lake at least one share, and thus assist in tho .-.-.M~i'--!?.?L?uii ot that great and useful ontorpriso which will bc to tho interest of every ono in Coonee, and, besides, a good paying invest ment to tho stockholders. It will have behind it men of business, ex perience and integrity. Sue}', enter prison not only give tho fanner a helter price foi his cotton, hut a market for everything ho can pro duce* on tho farm, oven a market for his pine knots, for I have seen tann ers carrying thom to our mill towns and getting a fair price for thom. With all these facts before us, and, 'having nt heart the welfare of all our people, ns well as thc promoters of cotton mills and -ll other enter prises that tend to advance the pub lic interest, I hope thc proposed col ton mi!) at Westminster will be built and meet with success.
