Manufacturers.
The presidents of the cotton facto
ries in and near Augusta have joined
in a letter to all the Southern cotton
manufacturers, inviting them to a
convention to be held in Augusta on
the 1st of May. The meeting is pro
posed to discuss matters of common
interest, and also to confer with the
leaders of the Farmers’ Alliance, as
to the quality and price of the cotton
cloth that may be used to cover the
next cotton crop, in place of jute bag
ging. m
The Savannah River Boats.
The Augusta people still keep their
river steamers afloat, and will com
pete with the Central Railway for
freights to Savannah All the debts
against the steamboat company have
been paid and the receiver discharged.
Mr. P. G. Burum has been made
president of the company, and will
push the boating business right along.
The boats are being overhauled, and
as soon as they are in order again will
be put into service.
Cupf. Dawson’s Successor.
At a meeting of the board of direc
tors of the News, and Courier Com
pany of Charleston, Mr. J. C. Hemp
hill wa^4fieeted manager, as the suc
cessor of Capt. F. W. Dawson; Mr.
James H. Lacoste was placed in
charge of the business department.
Both of these appointments are
most suitable. Mr. Hemphill has had
much experience in the management
of the News and Courier of late years,
and is an able writer, well qualified to
to keep the paper up to the high stan
dard it has attained.
An Kntcrprisfng Excursion.
Henry W. Grady, of the Atlanta
Constitution, has arranged for an ex
cursion party of Northern capitalists
to investigate the Savannah River
above Augusta. The party will start
from Andersonville, 8. C., at the
junction of the Tugaloo and Keowee
Rivers, the streams that form the Sa
vannah River, and will make the trip
in small boats down to Augusta. The
object of the excursion is to examine
the great water powers of the river,
and to advertise the counties that lie
on both sides of it. It is well known
that for about five miles below where
Rocky River enters the Savannah in
Abbeville County, the water powers
are unsurpassed anywhere, and only
await development. The party will
leave Andersonville next Saturday,
the 20th inst.
\Jute Bagging.
Alliances of Georgia
irolina have declared
bagging combination,
sations are that sufficient
ill be bronght to bear to
ie combination charge only
^ices for bagging, or induce other
'icable substitutes to be brought
into the market The cotton farmers
were at the mercy of the jute bagging
trust last season, and were robbed of
several millions of dollars. They see
very clearly that this combination In
tends to rob them again and they
propose to protect themselves if pos
sible.
There is reason to believe that such
improvements will be made in the
manufacture of pine sUaw bagging in
the near future that it will be sold at
prices with which the jute bagging
manufacturers cannot compete. Even
now, in its incipiency, it can be made
and sold at less than jute bagging
was sold at last December. Seve r al
pine straw bagging factories are now
projected, and experiments are in
progress which will determine wheth
er or not this will become a great
Southern industry. If the experi
ments are successful, the jute bagging
manufacturers will have cause to re
gret their grasping policy, and the
South cause to rejoice that a new
source of wealth has been developed.
Necessity is the mother of invention,
and the present necessity of the cot
ton farmers is causing the various
materials for covering cotton to be
carefully examined and tested. Thus
far pine straw appears to be the most
promising, and is receiving the most
attention.
It is stated that some capitalists in
Atlanta have bought an interest in
the pine straw bagging patent, and
have already completed a factory at
Conly, N. C., with a capacity of 2,000,-
000 yards of bagging a year; and in
tend to build one at Charleston,
Savannah, Brunswick, Mobile and
Meridian, and probably also at other
points in the piuelaud regions of the
South. They expect to have five fac
tories at work by next October, that
will turn out about 10,000,000 yards of
bagging per annum. In addition to
these, the Acme Mill at Wilmington,
N. C., that was burned last fall, has
been rebuilt on a greatly enlarged
scale, and will turn out about 1,500,-
000 yards a year.
This aggregate product of ten or
twelve million yards of pine straw
bagging is not a great deal, when it is
borne in mind that 55,000,000 yards of
bagging are required annually to
cover the cotton crop; but it is a great
deal for a commencement, and will
have an appreciative effect in restrain
ing the jute bagging combination.
A Home for Conietlerate Veterans.
The steamships running between
New York and Charleston and Sa
vannah had very stormy voyages last
week, and were in two instances three
days behind time. The Chattahoo
chee from Savannah and Iroquois
from Charleston were severely han
dled and weathered the gale with
much difficulty. Both steamers had
many passengers, as they were going
north, and were well patronized by
tourists returning home. The vessels
were considerably damaged. The
decks were covered with ice from a
violent hail-storm, and the waves
tore away the bulwarks, smashed in
the state rooms and splintered the
side from stem to stern. A number
of the passengers were seriously in
jured by being thrown violently
about. The steamship City of Au
gusta, from Savannah to New York,
had similar experiences, and arrived
at her destination in a badly damaged
condition.
The Pickens County Bynchers.
The three negroes convicted of mur
der for having lynched a white man,
and who were sentenced to be hanged
on the 12th inst., have been respited
for one week, until next Friday. We
are impressed with the conviction
that if the lynchers had been white
men and the hanged man a negro, but
little or no notice would have been
taken of the contempt of law, and
actual murder done. But the lynch
ers were negroes and the hanged man
white, and they have been vigorously
prosecuted and fairly convicted, and
unless the Governor interposes, will
be hanged.
Now lynching should be stopped,
bej’ond doubt, and lynchers hanged,
but it is scarcely creditable for the
State to make ignorant negroes the
first and only examples, and that too
for the first offence of that character
committed by their race. We really j
trust that under the circumstances;
the Governor will think it his duty to !
commute the sentences of these
felons.
Have You Penned the Pigs?
There is a movement on foot over
in Georgia to found a home for aged
and disabled veterans of the Confed
erate army and navy. This move
ment is a good one, and doubtless will
appeal to the hearts of all true South
erners. At this time when much ad
ulation is being made over George
Washington, who was a rebel and the
leader of what was really a rebellion,
— fJjc.dcsi.r^-to- dc mme jusltep to. men
who were in no sense rebels, and
whom the conquering government
never dared attempt to prove so,
comes with especial grace. Texas
took the lead in this movement, and
Georgia has followed.
The proposal is to build a commo
dious borne in Atlanta, at a cost of
about $50,000. Of this sum $27,000
has already been subscribed there,
and the remainder will doubtless be
raised in a very short time.
South Carolina also needs such an
institution. There are no more de
serving people in the State than the
Confederate veterans who, from va
rious causes, are unable to provide the
necessities of life for themselves and
their families. And the institution
should be made broad enough to
eover not only the veterans, but the
widows and orphans of those who
served the cause of the South and the
Constitution faithfully. At this time
when the demigogical cry of “New
South” over-rides everything, and
men are being tempted by the bribes
of official pap to turn their backs on
their old comrades and forswear the
honorable Lost Cause, it behooves us
to do all we can to uphold the honor
of that cause, and teach our children
the truth about it. Who will start the
No Offices lor Colored Men.
The colored voters, who are almost
solidly Republican, for what they can-
not.ex plain themselves, are not get
ting much out of the present admin
istration. In fact, it begins to look as
if they will not get as much as they
did from the Democrats. Mrs. Harri
son made the first move by dismiss
ing all the colored employees in the
White House, with the exception of
one, who had been retained by Mrs.
Cleveland, and putting white persons
in their places. And now according
to reports from Republican sources,
the President has made up his mind
not to appoint colored men tq^ai^’ im
portant oflices in the South. And if
they are not appointed in the South,
it is evident that they will not he ap
pointed any where. Of course this is
not exactly what the colored voters
bargained for, but perhaps it will lead
them one little step nearer to a reali
zation of the fact that the Republican
party valued them only for their
votes; and now that they can not out
vote the whites, it has no more use
fsr them. The President perceives
that the colored politicians of the
South have no influence, and can do
nothing for the party, and as the par
ty is about all he cares for, ergo,, he
does not care for his colored brother.
A delegation of colored men from
this State, among them S. E. Smith
of Aiken, called on the President a
few days ago, and pressed the claims
of their race for offices in the South.
But it is stated they received very lit
tle encouragement, and were given
plainly to understand that he did not
intend to appoint any one of them
simply for the sake of giving a col
ored man an office. Party interests
did not any longer make such ap-
pointrtteuts advisable. What he
wanted were men who had some so
cial atanding and influence, who
could do'sowething towards building
up a white Rdf^^can party here.
He proposes to rec^P||^^he white
protectionists in the Sou^^^^Ar
to make the dividing line upon
nomic policy, and not color or race.
Some deluded individuals at the
North suppose from the mistaken ut
terances of only two important news
papers In the South, the Augusta
Chronicle and Atlanta Constitution,
that this section is full of protection
ists, who need only recognition to
form an influential party. Sooner or
later Mr. Harrison will find out that
he has been deceived; that the few
papers that support tariff robbery can
not muster a corporal's guard of fol
lowers, and even these followers, how
ever they may err in their views on
economic questions, can not be in
duced to enter the Republican camp
as office holders.
Whatever may he thought by some,
we are satisfied that at the present
time, the paramount question is that
of race. And until this is settled sat
isfactorily, as it will be in time, the
few misguided Southernors who up
hold the present iniquitous tariff, will
stand shoulder to shoulder with the
vast majority of Southern people on
all issues affecting their government.
This fact has been repeatedly demon
strated, and if Mr. Harrison wishes
to split our solidity he will have to

for a “home” in South
Shade Trees for the Roads.
This is the question that has suc
ceeded to “Have you read Robert
Elsmere?” It is strange how such a
trifling thing as a few marbles and a
box can have such a fascination for
many persons. Some years ago the
fifteen puzzle was the rage, and now
the pigs have taken hold of the pop
ular mind, and are actually being
penned uncomfortably near The Rn-
CORPEK office. This new puzzle is
said to afford considerable amuse
ment, and perhaps it may be amusing
to some persons to rack their brains,
wear their patience and exhaust their
ingenuity In trying to coax four mar
bles to roll from an outer circular
driveway through two others into a
central box. It may be amusement to
think about this thing, talk about it,
neglect one’s business for it. Perhaps
eo. It is a matter of taste, and that is
all that can be said. Fortunately for
Aiken the pigs have just been intro
duced here, when the comparatively
quiet season is coming on, so that one
may idle away time without much
Interference with business.
There are but few persons who have
travelled much along our country
roads who have not at times felt the
need of shade trees. Often for long
stretches, especially through thickly
cultivated parts of the country, the
roads are open, devoid of shade, and
the traveller and his animals are ex
posed to the blaze of the summer sun.
We have frequently been impressed
with the importance of having the
roads protected.
It is very easy for a farmer to plant
a few good trees, and still easier to
| leave them when they are naturally
in place. Instead of this, however,
one of the evils of the stock law is,
that people are constantly cutting
down the trees along the roadsides,
that should be allowed to remain there,
and frequently the trees are cut with
in the width of road reserved by law,
because perhaps their roots interfere
with the growth of crops that are
planted down to the roadside, and
really over it. This bad practice has
been growing since the passage of the i
general stock law. We believe that j
it is the business of the County Com- J
missioners to keep the roads open to i
the width prescribed by law, which
is thirty feet in the case of roads lead
ing from any part of the State to
Charleston, Georgetown, Columbia,
Camden, Hamburg or Cheraw; and
twenty ffset in the case of all other
roads.
The wilful cutting down or killing
of any tree left standing for shade
within ten feet of any road is a mis
demeanor punishable by a fine of
twenty-five dollars.
It would be good for the County In
general, and an especial boon to tra
vellers, If the law on this subject was
strictly enforced; and it would be
still better if the farmers could be ed
ucated to an appreciation of the value
aud beauty of shade trees.
Mr. Wm. A. Courtenay, of Char
leston, has been elected president of
the Bessemer Land Company, and
will remove to Bessemer, Alabama.
Mr. Courtenay repudiates the report
that he had sought the position of
Collector of the Port of Charleston
from President Harrison. He would
not under anv conceivable circum
stances accept any remunerative office
under the Republican administration.
