A paper Read Before the Oca'a Con-
vention by Mr. 0. L. Joyner.

Mr. Chairman, Uruzens of Ocala, and
Gentleman of the Convention :
It affords me very keen pleasure to
of giving to the
have the privilege
eonvention through this paper seme
idea of the tobacco industry of North
Carolina.
Until very recent years nothing
much had ever been said about North
Carolina as a tobacco preducing State.
Nearly every schcol boy remembers
that his primary lessons in geography
tuught him that the products of North
Carolina weie tar, pitch and turpentine
and outside of her own confines sbe
has been known mainly as the pine
tree State, but the North Carolia ot
today is a sreater State. abounding ~Dp
resources
capabilities of her soils have never bee
known, her water supply is unlinit d,
her (eusperate climate has been com"
almost inexhaustible, The
pared to that of suuny Lialy and s. uth
ern Krance end is excelled erly by the
matchless climate of your own los ely

of any other State in our great Union,
are broader in scope ihun those

nous peaks ol the Alleghany system m
the west to the sand recied shores of
Roanoke Island in the east, I repeat,
Tain happy that an oppertanity is here
given me to present ininy feeble way,
and regret what it could be more ably
done, & faint outline of the tobacco in-
© dustry da Noréh Carolina.
By reference to the evloniu records
of the State we find that the early his-
tory of North Cacolina is very replete
With intonation pertuining to the
growth ot tobacco in the State cs early
eyen vs the closing years of the seveu-
teenth and first querter ot the eigh-
tecnih century. 6
walter Kaleigh with his colony of first
white settlers landed at Roanoxe Island
in 1084 off the easter shore of North
Carolina, they found the natives there
smoking a plant which they called
upowac. From this early period in
the StateTs lisiury to present time to-
bacco has formed one of the principal
commercial commoddities ot the Olu
No.th state and although a very great
deal of the credit of the tubacco pro-
duction oof Noith Carolina bas been
» given to Virginia evcu trum the eaclicst
~ dimes Vo the present on account of the
7 �,� portation of the product direct irom
~Virginis ports and shipped as Virginia
© tobacco, yet it is a most important aud
probably the leading agricultural pro-
duct of the State. While the object of
gis paper 3s not to compare the tobacco
of North Carolina ix point of supenority
over the tobacco of any other State,
yot it ia not amiss to state here ia justice
to North Carolina tobacco that not
uutii within fhe last few years did the

was all branded and known us Virginia
brights, and hence by this means one of
the leading industriss of the State, and |
which is probably today attracting
more atten.ion than any other agrivul-
tural product, has gone unknown until
during the last decade and through the
instrumentality and efforts mainly ot
Mr. HL. E. barman, editor of the
Southern ~Tobacco Journal, of Winston,
N. C., and a few ~other tokacconist3s of
the State its claims Fave beep made
known and ths time is not far distant
when Carolina byights. will be recog-
nized, us they realy are by tar, the su"
periur of the bright tobacco produced
by any other State in the Union.
The tobacco industry of the United
States isa great and varied one. Unlike
the cotton industry there is not a likely
probability of overstocking the market
with the kinds the trade demand. There
are hardly two States in the Union
that produce the same kind of tobacco
and hence there is no competition be-
tween the Stites. While it is all
tobacco and quite similar in its many
uses, yet d.ssimilar enough to preveni
close competition. For instance, in the
far northern States they pioduce a
cigar tobacco, yet they cannot compete
w.th the ciga* tobacco grown in Florida.
In East Tennessee, Virginia and in
South Carolina they produce a bright
tobaeco yet nut the kind that enters into
close competition with the bright
vivarette tobbacces of North Carolina ,
hence we are compelled to view the
tobacco industry of the country from
the different types that are produced,
and looking at it from this light the
intelligent ovserver is forced to the
conclusion that governed by the proper
and legitimate laws of trade the tobacco
industry of the United States is a per"
manent one in which for generations to
come mankind can find pleasaat and
profitable employment.

New York would have chosen a
Governor in 1897 if the old con-

under the new instrument the

Sneering at a Mechanic.
oBoys,� says an exchange, ~do
not sneer at the hardworking me-
chanic, for beneath that dust soiled
jacket may rest the spirit of true
nobility.�
The exchange is eminently cor-
rect. It is indeed wrong to pass
through this world sneering at me-
chanics. A good, average, able-
bodied mechanic is a bad man to
sneer at. At almost any unexpect-
ed moment he is quite liable to
transfer some of the dust of his
jacket to the broadcloth coat of the
sneerer and jolt him severely if he
sneers too hard at the mechanic. If
a boy or young man is contemplat-
ing sneering at a mechanic, it would
be quite as well not to leta hard-
working méchanic catch him at it.
When the boy wants to sneer real
hard and feels that he canTt hold it
any longer, it would be far better,
instead of plunging right into the
midst of a lot of hardworking me-
chanics, to seek some secluded lo-
cality and have the sneer out all by
himself. It would look a great deal
better, and the boy would look bet-
ter when he went back to the bosom
of his~family.
No, boys, it is neither polite, gen-
tecl nor wise to ssaeer ata mechanic.
Neither is it healthy. ~The sneerer,
is too often found in a pensive mood,
abstractedly engaged in applying
pieces of raw beefsteak to his eye,
trying toreduce a swollen nose with
a generous decoction of arnica, feel-
ing his lame back or picking the
gold filling out of his teeth, which
he happened to casually cough up
soon after indulging in his playful
little sneer at the hardworking me-
chanic,
knew not when she
will not be liable to forget in a
month or six weeks."Texas Sift-

Air Used by a Human Being.
Dr. Radcliffe Hall makes the fol-
lowing interesting calculation on
the amount of air a human being of
the average size and proportions
will consume in the space of one
minute when in repose, and also
when in the different degrees of ac-
tivity. When at rest, we consume
500 eubic inches of air per minute;
if wo walk at the rate of one mile
an hour, we use 800; two miles,
1,000; three miles an hour, 1,600;
four miles an hour, 2,300. It we
start out and run six mile3in an
hour, we will consume 3,000 cubic
jnches of air during every minute of
that time. "St. Louis Republic.
