Joyner. ra 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 . * Bivrida, about which it gives me pleasure to fer tobacco ticlds, the sub- ject write, of any other State in our great Union, are broader in scope ihun those extendi .g as they do irom the aliitudi— 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 State’s 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 “of 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 world across'the seas know there were | 3 2 foreign demand for bright tobacco supplied almost wholly from Vir- nt NP eae @ tobacco as Carolina brights, ih 60 to 70 per cent. of the tobacco thus OTOR| liength, in lowa and Onio .two in fact, when Sir) ppoints and while probably from exported was North Carolina tobaceo it 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.

Hall in New York Observer. i Sneering at a Mechanic. “Boys,” 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 can’t 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- a aoa 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. 90S 2d 9 Ol Gaalavay ld ATALG TOSI Z "9.13 Jos0u *: > J0 9862 Aut O19 6} *peasquo "028TH °°O0 [MAMAN ONVIALS “PV “ess zo] youg pur apd F my .
