Silk in the United States.

Among the subjects treated in the annual
report OF the Secretary of the Silk Association
OF America, just published, is the Centennial
silk exhibit. he claims that American silk
were, IN certain lines, more substantial in
their material, brighter and m ore permanent
IN color, heater in their finish, and more
tasteful in pattern than those which Europe
could supply. In support Of this opinion he
quotes from the Exhibition correspondence OF
the Macclesfeld Courier, published at the
headquarters of the English silk manufac.
ture, wherein the correspondent says sour
English silk manufacturers have acted wisely
IN abstainlng from exhibiting their goods at
the Centennial Exhibition at Philadelphia, as
they would only have exposed their inferiority
IN quality and price, also from q letter by NJ.
Jules Simonin, French publicist, who pointed
out the silk industry of America as among
the successes with which France would con.
hnually be driven to a closer competition, and
from the official report of the Swiss Commits
Honer General to the Exhibition, who saws,
Switzerland must be prepared for a warmer
rivalry IN silk products, The secretary in a
former report mentioned the fact that many
individual weayers, having each one or two
looms in their dwelling houses, were establish
ing themselves in Paterson and vicinity. He
now reports that the custom is gaining ground,
and that instances of the kind are reported
from Hoboken. The finest of the French
black silks are made in this way by individual
weavers. But it is in machine-made silks
that America will probably achieve her great.
est triumphs, and the exhibit Of machinery
for the manufacture and weaving of silk,
which attracted so much attention from visi.
tors in Machinery Hall, gives promise of a
rapid growth of TIL industry. 1t may prove
healthy growth, too, if the secretary's warn
ing is needed. "What we make in this coun.
Try must be not onlypure, but above suspicion.
Our work If honest brings joy to the worker
as well as to the wearer.H
