Mr.. Edward II. Ammidown has an
able article in the North American
Review for August on the American
wool industry. Here is an extract;
1.-The American wool clip amounts
to about 300. 100000 pounds per annum.
The best private authorities place it
higher than this, and it is pretty clear
that the government estimates are too
low. But the figures here are within
bounds.
1T annual value varies with the
condition of the market from S75. 000,-
000 to $90,000,000. 1t stands sixth in
value on the list OF American sgricul
cultural products, and is surpassed
only by corn, hay, wheat, cotton and
oats, The number Of sheep is esti-
mated at $4,000 600, worth on an
average somethinpE over So each, or
not less than $t0O,000.0O0
IF the annual product of mutton
for food, and the increase of the fiocks
in prosperous times were added to the
value of the wool, the total amount
would exceed 1926, 100000
"Sheep husbandry is distributed
over the whole country. Il is the
only great farm industry in the bene-
fits Of which every section of the coun-
try shares. The distribution OF the
annual benefit is as follows:

village blacksmith is absolutely pro-
tected by the conditions which render
it impossible for the farmer to send his
horse abroad to be shod, or his wagon
or pillow to be repaired, otherwise the
vigilant free trade advocate would not
long permit his protection to stand I'M
assailed.
However adequately defended
against foreign competition in these
particular lines of work they may be,
the class of mechanics referred to
cannot afford to overlook the import
anee to themselves of securing ade-
quate protection to all other industries
Every man in the country kept steadily
and contentedly employed in some
other industry lessons tho danger from
over-crowding in the naturally pro-
tected trades. Ever dollar kept ia the
country which under a free trade
policy would go abroad, enables
somebody to spend that much
money, which may go into build
ing or repairing houses, shoeing
horses, or some similar work
necessarily done by mechanics at or
near home. These in turn will have
the additional dollar to pay the farmer
for bread, the gardener for fruits or
vegetables, or to otherwise spend for
family comfort or convenience. Thus
it is that the maintenance OF our pro-
tective policy appeals directly to those
voters whom the promoters Of free
trade are seeking to enlist in their
work Of repeating existing tariff laws
with a view to replacing them with
laws dictated in the interest Of a
nation at once envious Of our growing
wealth and jealous Of our greatness
among the nations of the earth. Our
workingmen, of all others, should
avoid becoming supporters Of free
trade, through either the flattery or
deception Of its advocates.

AhcJ nave Existed Ever Since Bridges

Ever since men began to build hirh
bridges other men have occasionally
jumped from them-sometine in mad
despair, as often'for mere longing for no
torlety, and in many instances from a
mere mad and morbid impulse which the
Jumper himself cannot explain. And, no
donht. this last motive explains many
supposed suicides. Many man will
freely admit that he is afraid to go on top
OF very high structure, as he always
feels an impulse to jump off, and fears
that some day it viii overpower him, and

through the air like the birds" and they
feel a sort OF confidence that they could
do 1t. Perhaps this is a Darwinian sur
vival from the cosmic period. when our
remote ancestors did fly; or perhaps it is
a prophecy Of the time when our de-
sscendants will. At any rate, most of us
have had the feeling
or bridge jumpers there have been
many. and Sam Patch Is the father of the

defended and although every effort
was made by the prisoners counsel TO
secure respite or pardon, the law was
allowed to take its course. Governor
Biggs acted promptly and wisely, re.
fusing to sanction any delay in the
enforcement of the law. The methods
OF the administration OF justice in
Delaware have often been severely
condemned by our neighbors, but it is
certainly much better to ensure to the
people efficient protection, than to
risk the safety Of society by the motor
