particularly true Of Harry and the wrter,who were

dog watches where Harry was best appreciated.
Tic dog watches are half-watches of two hours

BY this arrangement uneven number of watches
is made, seven instead of six in the twenty four
hours; otherwise there would be succession of
the same watches at the same hours throughout
the cruise. These watches ON a man-of-wal are
given the sailors for recreation. At such times
groups would be clustered together discussing

The manufacture of clothing has become one OF
the leading industries of Waldo county The sever
firms in Belfast pay cut thousands of dollars year
" and give employment to hundreds of families
The old firms are prospcrlg and new ones starting
up. One manufacturer said to 4 Journal represen
tativc Saturday that he had 500 dozens of pants
in the process of manufacture. The making OF
clothing, especially in the winter, gives employ
ment to families that otherwise would have little
OF nothing TO do. There are families in Waldo
county that make from $40 to SO per week from
this source alone. One family in Brooks that
works for Il Belfast ir1n makes twelve dozen pail
of pants weekly. All the members of the house
hold are empoyc,t-thc men run the machines, tho
women finish and the children sew on buttons. Ii
one instance a man of eighty years was found bust

1t is business however, better adapted t" wolnel
than men, and to-day a woman can get employ
ment in Belfast where Il man would be unable tt
do so. 1t is almost impossible To get a woman t

The bill is both protective and fair; for it sjrr
fees American interest forthe benefit Of foreign
competitors. nor one industry for another, the
industries of any locality for those of any other To-

This cannot certainly be said Of the programme
of our democratic free traders, who would destroy
American wool growing, one of most import
ant industries, as WelAls the lumber business, and
various other noted industries of the Northern
States, in which large capital is invested and thou
sands of workmen are employed, and millions o!
dollars in wages paid, all in conformity with the
ardent desires of British manufactures and British
and South American producers.
