We would ko to see the representation upon to State ticket distributd I more enerally ovef' th State than it is t present, and would like to see toro divernity of interests placed up ii it; but we are bound in cndor to ay that we do not believe that there i a single ineflicient mt*n on our >resent 5td3te ticket, or that there is man on it- who has not fully, con Cienti(ouisly and successfully dischar ed list official duties.

At the start, tho odlkr s themselves Southernors, impressed with the vast imd varied natural resources of the Southern States., and foreseeing their mighty possibilities as a manufacturing area, determined to devote their efforts to the work of aiding to build up South ern Mtiiufiactturm. The paper cano in to prominence as the exponeut of the in dustrial interests of the South, and at once became popular. Its energetic management, its live, progressiye policy, its persistent championship of the cause of Southern development, early brought it into prominent notice, and its fumo rapidly extended. '.1 t wonddrful de velopment of the South is now attract iiug attention all over the world, and the progress of this development has been so faithfully chronicled by the Manufae turers' Record that it is accepted every where as unquestioned authority on Southern affai-s; and its statistics and statemhiits ais diaWn upon by hnoUt every writer and public speaker oil ahy topic pertaining to the industries of the South. The first number issued by the pres out publishers was that of November 23, 1882. Its size, at that time, was 16 page.
