l?cc tilling more evident every year (hat the great
civil war has resulted in a blessing lo lltu v in qnished
South an I n curse Jo I lie victor, ous
Njrtii. I.oiig at; s In nee I lie events of I lie !.?*l
t.venty years in this country will give historians
anil political economists material for study
an 1 comment. The most astounding facts have
om - in natural an I simple ways, an I hy plain
ami easy processes which no prophetic tongue
foretold a I which the most profoiiml pliilosoplty
and k -enest human iniiiilioii failed to fore
see. The letter of Frank Wilkcsoii, elsewhere,
although containing many errors, points to one
marvellous direct result of tho war. and gives a
hint of the key to an anomaly ? the anomaly
presented hy a neonle increasimr in moo.01.1.11*
ratio iii consequence of living butchered, gaining
undreamed of \\ealili because tiny wore
robbed an 1 plundered, rising to great power
nn I glory resulting directly from their own
subjugation nn 1 humiliation The anomaly
contains greater won lers than those : While
the people who were killed, conquered fttid
trample 1 nre prospering tin 1 rising, the people
who conquered nre losing wealth :tu>l power liecause
of their victory.
The solution and e* pi anal ion seems clear w lien
wo have seen it, and we wonder that n<.tI\
foresaw it. The South his heen heaten into
prosperity because she was heaten from slavery
mid from the narrow ideas and restricted channels
of industry that tieeompaiiied slavery and
were part of it. The war forced men from the
farms to the shops an I mills, n tide self reliance
and self help the only refuge from starvation,
nnd impelled us to seek new values to replace
the lest slaves, tin I new methods to live. It
virtually forced us io the in luslry for which we
have every advantage- -the manufacture of our
own cottou.
I,ah >r is comparatively cheap with us now
because living is cheap, and living is cheap because
land is cheap, abundant and fertile, and
the climate mild. That advantage, as Me. Wilthe
future.
