What did most southern newspaper editors and business leaders consider the key to transforming the former confederacy into a "new south"?

The "NEW SOUTH" was a vision formed by southern landowners, entrepreneurs, and newspaper editors in the decades following the Confederacy's defeat in 1865. It argued for the development of a new economy more in harmony with industrial capitalism that characterized the rest of the American economy. This is because its plantation economy had been destroyed by the Civil War and Reconstruction.
