Wool Trade.

In New York, the sales for the week
closing on Friday included about four hun
dred thousand pounds at prices ranging
from SIC to 81 10, but most from 81 Oh to
81 05. The Economist remarks that under
peace rumors and decline in gold, the
wool market has been little unsettled the
past week, and the article has not gone off
consequently as rapidly as was anticipated.
Still a very fair trade has been done at full
previous prices. No really desirable fleeces
can now be purchased much, if any, below
81 per ID. but very excellent parcels can be
bought at 81 05, though the asking range
is 95c to 81 l5 for all grades from heavy
State and Iowa to very choice light fleeces."
The Boston Advertiser says that in that
city there has been fair inquiry at steady
prices. The sales Of the week have been
100000 lbs. fleece and pulled at 81 to 81 10
for fleece and 94c to 81 10 for super and
extra pulled. Included in the sale were
about 259,000 lbs. choice Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania at 81 0S to 81 10 per lb. There is
very little demand at the close on account
of the peace rumors and the fluctuations in
gold.
In Philadelphia the range has been from
81 to 81 06. The receipts there have been
small and the stock in hands is very much
reduced.-OhiO Farmer, Jdn. q.

Arbitrary Arrests.

We take the following extract from The
Cincinnati Gdzette's Washington cores
pondence, of late date. 1t is about time
the Republicans were waking up to the
infamy of the arbitrary arrest system:
EXCITING SCENE IN THE HOUSE.
A sensation was unexpectedly produced
In the House to-day by Thad. Stevens eff
fort to prevent an investigation, ordered a
day or two ago. into the arrests and con-
finements in the Old Capitol Prison. He
sought to put it on the ground of an attack
on the Administration, and thus array a
party majority against it; but Winter Da-
Wis came out in a strong speech against
the violation of law involved in many of
these arrests, and was followed by ring
ing speech from Kasson, of Iowa, who
went so far as to dcnounce the course of
the Secretary of War himself At this
stage of the discussion, Mr.. Garfield en-
tered the hall, and announced that the
Military committee had already begun the
investigation, and such outrages had already
been developed that he implored the House
not to stop. Under this pressure the yeas
in the whole House, including Thaddeus
Stevens and Spaulding, voted not to suspend
the investigation. Its understood that the
party likely to be found guilty of the out
RACES now being exposed, is the disreput-
able detective whom the War Department
permits to make arrests in its name. The
investigation promises to leave him in a bad
predicament. 1t was sworn before the
committee to-day, by an officer in the Old
Capitol, that there was not person about
the prison who did not believe this detec-
tive to be scoundrel. One case exposed
to-day is that of Colonel, who had done
honorable service in the field, who was ar
rested without charges, and has been held
in confinement six months without trial,
and who to-day swears that he had not the
remotest idea what he was arrested for,
and can get nobody to tell him. .

what wise stateslnanship Would

There undoubtedly is in Rebeldom dis
satisfaction with JEFF. DAVIS, because OF
the recent defeats suffered by the Rebel
armies. That dissatisfaction would be turned
to our account by a wise statesmanship'
Such craftsmanship would propitiate the
discontented by giving to them guarantee
that by returning to the Union with their
States, they would be allowed to exercise
State sovereignty in the fullness they exer-
cised it before they were dragged into Rebel
lion. 1t is the duty of craftsmanship to give
to them convincing proof that all along they
have been the dupes of false and
mischievous leaders. In this way can
the Rebellion be more quickly and more
thoroughly overthrown than by fierce and
bloody battles.

THE STATESMAN is mistaken in saying

Hou Long Exempted.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer says:
''It was well understood that the draft in
July last was only for one years service,
but twas not generally understood that o
drafted man, although he furnished sub
stitute for three years, under that call or
draft was not exempted for longer time
than one year. Therefore, any man who was
drafted under the July call, no matter how
long he furnished a substitute for, becomes
liable again in the coming July."
The Plain Dealer does not inform its read
ers upon what authority it makes this an
nouncement.

IT is curious position to maintain the
idea that under our form of government
deriving its power from the people, and
providing for its own amendment, any

locked up beyond the reach of fundamental

09io Statesman,
A Scrap Of History.

The manner in which the New England
Federalsts conducted themselves in the elate
war with England, is thus stated by Jour
nal, the loyalty Of which is subject to no
discount: . ........ .
"The difficulties which had been thrown
in the way OF the Government borrowing
money by the Federal or peace party were
very great. A Boston newspaper said in
1914: ANY Federalist who lends money to
the Government will be called infamous
and a large portion Of the press and pulpit
spoke in a similar strain. It was deemed
necessary in Boston for brokers who had
Government loans to sell, to advertise that
the names of subscribers would be kept Sc
cret; and in February, 1915, in that city,
twenty thousand dollars of United States
six per cent. stock was offered at auction,
and only five thousand of it taken, aud that
at forty per cent. below par. Boston, by a
combination of New England capital, had
been made the financial center of the coun-
try, and the New England banks had drained
those of the Middle and Southern States as
much as possible of their specie. to prevent
their subscribing to the public loans. Yet
at the time that this drain was begun the
Massachusetts banks had two and halt
dollars in specie III their vaults for every
dollar of their circulation. The result Of
this was that in February. 1915, the notes Of
the banks of New York State We're 10 to 20
per cent. below par; those of Philadelphia
"a; and those of Baltimore 30. while treas
ury notes were "A to %, and United States
six per cents 30 per cent"

Nevada, the Silver state.

The two United States Senators from Ne
vada-a State with a population not eX-
ceedng one-third of that of the city of
Baltimore, but, nevertheless, said to be full
OF silver-are lecturing in the North upon
the resources of that new State. They
give glowing accounts of their sllyery re-
giOn, and Senator Stewart, in partc-
ular, is not only glowing, but speci-
tic, in detail of mines, mills, quantities,
wanted for the development of the re-
gion and the production of untold guam
titles of the precious metals. These are.
labor, capital and the Pacific railroad. The
Senator thought that the national debt
would be found to be mere bagatelle, and
its payment the easiest thing in the world,
If but tithe of the national energies were
directed to the development OF our gold and
silver bearing Territories. But it is well
to remind the Senator that it is not merely
the precious metals which constitute wealth.
Neither men nor States can sGbsist wholly
upon such production. Other develop
ment and other production must Keep pace
with it. These silver mines are, of course,
destined to be duly felt and regarded in the
aggregate of national wealth, and their
product, to considerable extent, go into
| the mass of exports, like other produce of
llC COullll W Ollstb anu III
| debtedness, and form medium ofeXchange;
but they will not do more, or as much to-
ward paying the national debt as will many
other mines and industries.
The great mines of coal, of iron, of cop
per, &c, all contributing so greatly to our
varied manufactures and to commerce, af-
ford elements of wealth and bases of taxa
tion which can scarcely be estimated, while
from the silver, or even gold mines, only a
limited revenue can be derived, and that by
means of the income tax. The mining it
self is not taxed, and the miners, under the
liberal policy of the Government, pay no
royalty, though the mines or mining lands
belong to the United States. We would
not underestimate the Importance of devel-
oping these mines. But there are other
great Interests, here on the Atlantic border,
equally inviting just now for enterprise and
industry, and which it is equally as impor-
tant should be developed. No labor is like
ly to be more profitable than that which
may be applied in all this section of the
country, at this time in various branches,
especially in the field of agricuIture--and,
ere long, in manufactures and the mechanic
arts generally. The toll and adventures
of the miner in a far off region may be more
exciting, but they will not, in the end,
bring better iecOmpense or more happi-
ness than may be realized here in Maryland
by the same measure OF enterprise and in
dustry. These things invite our attention
at present, and may rightly enough attract
that of others, who are looking to emigra-
tion or changes of location as the means of
bettering their condition. The silvery and
golden dreams inspired by Nevada will
doubtless, however, be realized hereafter in
due eseason.-Bdltinaore Sun.
