per mill has no existence except
on paper. It is very easy to
build a paper mill, a cotton fac-
tory,^ cotton seed oil mill or
any kind of a manufacturing in-
dustry on paper, but it seems to
be an almost hopeless task to
indues home capitalists to in*
vesfctheir money in any kind of
a manufacturing business. The
plea* that there is a scarcity of
money will hardly hold good in
view oi the fact that the asses-
suns report ci assessments for
Washington for the year 1880
shows that there was cash on
hand to the amount of about
ftSe.ooo, and this just after the
disastrously short crop of 1879.
This year the amount of cash
on hand will no doubt be much
lacger. It must also be remem-
bered that the "cash on hand"
returned to the assessor repre-
sents only a small portion of the
money in the hands of the
people generally and not that
actively employed in every day
business. A similar condition
of affairs obtains in most of tlje
counties in the state and Wash-
ington county is merely cited as
an example to prove that mon-
ey is not scarcc.The lack of man-

be traced to other causes. One
