FAILURE ON ANYBODY ELSE
DO NOT BLAME i'OUB BUSINESS EAILUltE ON ANYBODY ELSE.
Of course, the world is far from being perfect. There arc hundreds
of wrongs that ought to bo righted and thousands Of evils that ought to be
done away altogether. Mut for all that the fundamental principles of OI K
Government arc the .MOST PERFECT ON EAltTH, the opportunities offered
to Ol'lt young men and women absolutely beyond comparison with any other
In the history of the world.
A young man of 2u to 30 years of age who stays in a large city, grubbing
away at $l?> or $12 a week, ruining his health, and saving nothing, making no
preparations for the future, and Injuring every business prospect by midnight
debauchery, has no right to complain at the preferment <>f his fellows.
A boy, who stops his schooling at the eighth grade and enters a factory
without making the necessary struggle to earn his way higher up, is merely
giving additional proof Of his own ignorance when he asserts that he "AIN'T
1IF.1) NO SHOW."
If complaining people would (urn their energies and attention to the
clarifying of the foul political atmosphere which makes our actual grievances
possible, we would approach a thousand years near to Utopia than we would
if we should try to REORGANIZE the property basis of society.
The things that keep a man down are INSIDE of him and NOT OUTSIDE,
and success will come to every able-bodied man who is willing to pay the
price of success In earnest, conscientious effort, if .lohn l). Rockefeller
should spend $10,000,01)0 next month trying to keep me from earning a living,
he couldn't do it. 1 am in a country w here men are wanted who will work, I
and so long as I am'willing, I can have all the work 1 want and will get
paid reasonably for it. If, then, I add to my willingness to work a sincere de
I sire for education In business, there is nothing in this country that can pro
I vent mo from being a money king bin my own mental deficiency -and it's
I Ood Almighty, and not the Republican or Democratic pat ty, who is responsi
ble for that.
Men have their ups and downs, and the exceptions to the rules just laid
down are many; but "for a' that and a" that, a man s a man for a* that," and
here In this magnificent country of ours, he may have a man's chance to light
: for all the money thai was ever turned out of the mint. The fellow who is
constantly attempting to prove thai 8031E ONE ELSE is responsible for his
poverty is generally the one Who has so wasted the early years of his business
life thai ho has CONDEMNED III3ISELF to the life of the under dog.
WEEKLY REViEW OF
TRADE CONDITIONS
Condition of the Markets as Told in
Dim's Weekly Review of Trade and
Finance.
The Week.
The gains made in recent weeks, ev
en If moderate In volumo, have served
to strengthen business sentiment,
Which, ns llie year draw:-, to a close,
is noticeably taking n more cheerful
view of the situation, While ii is reC
ogni/.ed that business is still in n great
transition period, and transition mean
change and uncertainty, yet such pro
gress has boon made in necessary re
adjustments as to impart a bi tter feel
ing. Ill dry goods there is further
large trading in print cloths, while in
cotton and cotton goods generally
there is a fair movement, with indica
tions of increased orders for forward
delivery. The seasonable weather and
the approach of the holidays tire im
parting activity to retail trade.
The Cotton Market.
Cotton does not show any definite
tendency and fluctuations are small
as a rule, moderate profits being taken
whenever tin opportunity offers. Trad
ing in the early part of this week was
'restricted by the pending revision on
spot grades, the changes adopted on
Wednesday being considered satisfac
tory to all concerned, Other Influenc
es about balanced, with prices at the
??lose showing little net alteration.
Some firmness r.i the outsel was at
tributed largely to reports that the
South was in the grip of en unusually
cold wave for this season of Ihc year,
frost being gen? l in the eastern an 1
central bolt. Pars of damage in
Texas were also Inspired by the high
winds prevailing in that State, ye;
\ there was only a half-hearted respOll 10
1 to these developments, and when lei'ii
. poraturos soon climbed upward the
I weather bugbear quickly vanished.
Many people insist that a record crop
: hits already been grown and, while It
is admitted that some cotton is being
hold back, the movement continues
liberal, it is true that the receipts
are not equaling previous flgtll'CS, but
the total is still aboul 700,000 bales
greater than a year ago, although, as
an olllset, the exports are also run
ning heavy. This steady demand from
abroad is a strengthening feature and
supplies one tangible bullish argu
ment; yet domestic spinners are not
buying in any Inrge amounts and lat
est available statistics show that the
takings of mills here are roughly 100,
000 bales below those for the same
period of 1910. The situation in Chi
na is still being watched with close
attention, Liverpool advising that
further large orders for goods from
thnt country have been cancelled.
Next week the Census Bureau will Is
sue its returns showing the quantity
of cotton ginned prior to November
14. and current estimates place the
figures at around 11,600,000 bales or
more than 820.000 bales above the pre
vious high record up to the same date
in 1904.
****??*****?*<?
White and Colored Population.
The census shows for the South?
not counting Missouri a while imp
utation of 20,517,573 a gain of 4,
025.003, or 24.3?) |>er cent sinee 1000.
Ut'ing the same period iho negro pop
ulation of tl;ese states increased from
7,922,G90 to S.719,390- a gnin of S2G,
121, or only 10,43 per cent.
Prom this it would appear that the
nnthrnl gain in the negro population
was less than half as great as that of
Whites, but other things are to 1)0
considered. The UCgl'O population Ol
the balance of the country gained
17..">."? per cent, or from S17.S20 to I .
078.004. The negro population of the
entire country increased from 8,810,
7S!> to 0,828,294?a gain of 987,505 or
11.17 per cent. If the natural increase
of the negroes was the same in all
parts of the country the grentor ratio
Of increase at the North than at the
South would mean a gain by the North
and a loss by the South of about 00,000
negroes through migration.
The white population of the South
ern states showed a gain of 24 ".'< per
cent while that of the balance of the
country gained only 21.23 despite the
fact that its gain from births was re
inforced by nearly 9,000,000 Immi
grants. Evidently the drift of the
white population was from North to
South I while that of the Ucgroes was
in in South to North.
The white population of the South
is now nearly two and a half limes
p.s large as the negro population, if
, the relative gains of the past ton years
cot Inno for a half century the South
will have over four times as many
Whites as blacks. The rate of gain
for the decade ending with 1910 would
indicate for the South a population
a little in cnccss of 75,000,000 by I9C0
and for the balance of the country
about 150,000,000 people.Jacksonville
