When the Vienna Commission passes IA
vorablc Judgment on our homemade spool
thread, the New York World suggests that il
should make the following additional re
marks, viz
l. We find spool,thread made in the Unit
ed States of excellent quality.
.. We find that none is exported to for
cign countries from the United States.
3 We find that the consumption of thread
in the United States is o., 100000 dozen spools,
of 100 yards to the SPOOL annually.
4. We find that each spool of cotton thread
is SurChargcd with one cent, which is exact
ed in order to protect the home production.
). We find that this eXaction is collected
from the most needy of the population.
q. We find that of the S2,20O00O pressed
out from the people, the Treasury Depart
ment in 1872 received S360513,2S, and the
home manufacturers 1889 4S773.
Z. We consider that a country in which
such state of things can exist must be in
habitcd by fools and knaves-the fools who
pay this tribute, and the knaves who receive
il.
1.-THE Vienna exposition commissioners will
only do their full duty, and have the courage
to speak the truth, which they, ifthey know the
case they cannot avoid believing, they will
render great service to commerce, TO manu-
facturers, and to a distressed and wronged
people.
