CO-OPERATION Ar OLDHAM

In England are to be found some of the
best existing illustrations Of the benefits of
cooperation. Prominent among them are
the CO operative cotton mills at Oldham, an
interesting account of which is given in a re-
port to the State department at Washington
by Mr.. Albert G. Shaw, consul at Manohes-
ter.
Cooperation is no new thing in Oldham.
The first of the mills run by this system be-
gan to produce yarn twenty years ago. Now
there are about seventy cooperative mills
working in Oldham and its neighborhood,
with about five million spindles and a capital
of more than thirty million dollars. The
shareholders are liable for the debts of the
company only to the amount of their shares
The value of the shares is usually SIS each, so
that workingmen and small capitalists can
invest in them, and the shareholders generally
are Or have been working people, who, by
industry and thrift, have gathered small saw
ings, and they often bring to the manage
ment of the companies sound practical
knowledge and experience. The directors
are usually five or seven in number, chosen
by the shareholders, and in most of the COM
one share shall have the same voice as tho
owner of thousand. Thus few large CAP
italists cannot obtain control of those enter
prises. This feature of the system Is believed
to have worked well, and there is no desire
to have it changed. The average compensa-
ton of the directors for attending board
meetings and SO forth is about ninety dollars
year. The directors have full control of
the business Of the companies, and it ia said
to be no uncommon thing to see men who
work in the mills trustees for sums of ten to
fifty thousand pounds and directing the dis
bursement of nearly million dollars year.
It is not often that more than half the
subscribed capital of a company is called in,
as there is thought to be an advantage in
borrowing, as most of them are able to do,
at low rate of interest. Of course, the
unpaid capital is always subject to call when
needed. The borrowed capital, or much of
it. comes from small loans, like deposits in
savings banks, and these mills are practically
the savings banks of Oldham. Very little Is
deposited in the local postoffice savings bank,
and corporate savings bank previously es-
tablished there was compelled to close It's
books after the formation of cotton spinning
companies. The average rate paid on loans
is four or four and half per cent, but
some mills have borrowed at two and half,
and some have paid as much as five per cent.
This shows what soma English mechanics
are doing. What is there to prevent Ameri-
can mechanics from going and doing like
wise?

Post says that the Goldfish frequents "the

doubt, does this to secure as nearly
as possible dry, bracing atmosphere.
This pure air of the submarine table
lands gives to the Goldfish that breadth of
chest and depth of lungs which we have al
ways noticed. The glad, free smile of the
Goldfish is largely attributed to the exhilara-
ton of this oceanic altitoodleum. The cor

The electric light has been made useful in
England in photographing the interior of a
boiler. The boiler was at the marine exhi-
bition, Tynemouth The water used in the
boiler was very hard, forming scales quickly.
| When the boiler was opened the scales fell
to the bottom, the corrugated hues having
stripped themselves from scales. The APP
psarance of the interior was such as to make

by aid of the electric light were entirely sue

Have you ever seen Dorosis Island Pos
sibly you may have got distant glimpse of

two miles in circumference, near Glen Cove,
off the starboard bow as you sail eastward.
1t is the summer home of Charles A. Dana,

every day during the warm months he jour
nsys to the city, twenty miles Off, and back,
on a steamboat in private apartments ele

residence is an antique mansion, rambling
and roomy, on an eminence browning the
island and overlooking grounds laid out with
a consummate mastery of the arts of fores
try, orchardy, vineyard and Horticulture.
There are acres of fine festoonery, yielding
harvests of the richest grapes that can be
grown along this isothermal line. Fruit is
cultivated in abundance. There are mush.
room caves where the pale fungi grow deep
in the earth, approached only by ladders and
seeing no other light than torches. I doubt
if anybody else in this country has anything
like it !; and, indeed, it is said there are very
few mushroom caves in France that equal
these for the variety and excellence of the
product. There are on MIR. Dana's place

Monte Christie, the commlngling of the old
trees that shaded the Indians and Dutch with
the foliage resulting from modern selection
and cultivation makes a beautiful display.
Mr.. Dana is also a chicken fancier and

not forgotten what tremendous number of
them were stolen from his coops one night
last year. 1 forget whether it was GOO, or

asea'ciaz points the moral taught by the cleo
ton as follows: "There were in the Legis-
lature last winter eleven Republican candi-
dates for Congress. So they redistrioted the
State Nine of them were beaten for nomi
nation. Two were nominated in districts
prepared for themselves. Horr's district had
$500 Republican majority when it was made,
and he was beaten 9, 200. Brigham's district
was l. 200 Republican, and he beaten
800, which was considered rather a brilliant
thing for him. Not member of the Legis-
lature is elected to Congress"
Before the Ohio election there was I'M
doubleday considerable apathy among Re-
publicans in Connecticut but since hen
there has been a decided change. AS the
Waterbury american we'll says: The
second thought is having considerable
effect. You hear expression given to it in
many places More than anything else
it is strengthened by the offensive stand
taken on the liquor question by some of tho
Democratic organs which have apparently
lost their heads over the fact that the Ger
mans carried Ohio against the Republicans.
If not actually advocating free rum and no
Sunday, they are coming dangerously near
it. This not only arouses the temperate and
conservative lover of good order, but it ag-
gravates the very German vote they hope to
win. The average German citizen does not
want free rum, and he does not like to be
classed in that category. He has all the Or
der-loving and property holding citizens in
terest in the suppression of the groggeries
that do so much mischief. He wants simply
what most people of sense will be glad to see
him have when his privileges can be granted
so that their abuse can be checked. He wants
his lager bser and the privilege of drinking it
in comfort, disturbing nobody and by no
body disturbed. He guarantees not to offend
any reasonable public sentiment and to break
NO law. But he already feels that, in seek
ing to obtain this, he cannot afford to be
held responsible for the i'll considered pledges
which go farther than he desires or would
consent to go, and the association which is
being made so offensive is becoming irksome.
The Democratic press has been encouraged
by Ohio to become the organ of intemper-
ance, while the German citizen wants tenn
perance and good order as much as he wants
