The blowing out of blast furnaces and
shutting down of rolling mills and other
iron works in many parts of tho country
north of the Ohio river is largely duo to
the depressed condition Of all business
enterprises resulting from uncertainty as
to what amendments of the tariff may be
attempted and to what extent the subject
may DO agltated by the present Congress.
In addition there is tho further import.
ant fact that the producer and primary
manufacturer of iron in the black belt
pays less than one-hslf the price for labor
that Is paid in PeunsylVania, and pays
oven that amount in orders on the store,
on which profit of a hundred per cent.
Is made. The white labor OF the north

The Mississippi valley claims the posi-.
tiou of supervising inspector general
under President Cleveland's administra-
ton. The sentiment seems nearly unani-
nous from st. Paul 70 New Orleans in
favor of Capt. L. w. Gould. A late issue
of the Daily States of New Orleans thus
presents the subject for the consideration
of this administration;
Since the inception of the steamboat inspec.
ton service laws We have had five (5) super.
vising inspector generals all from the eastern
district, who had no knowledge of the wants
of the Mississippi valley, and It is high time
that the west and south should be honored by
an appointment TO fill that office, and to that
end 1t is high time that our steamboat frater-
nifty should take some decisive action toward
having Capt, L. w. Gould appointed for the
place He is fully capable in every particular,
being, as he has been stcamhoatlnan all his
life, having built several Of the finest boats
that ever travelled the mighty Mississippi, a
man of fine clerical abilities, perfectly con-
yersant with all the wants and requirements
of the steamboat service, he would fill the Office
with credit 10 himself as well as to the new
administration, aud IL President Cleveland
could be induced TO make trip from Cairo to
New Orleans and observe the magnitude Of
that portion Of our country, we feel conn dent
that he would soon call Capt L. w, Gould to
the head of the supervising inspection service,
as he is the man OF all others for the office.
