TIE WOOL ISSUE IN AsEUTsHELL
lFrom the N. Y. Star. ]


The United States produces 240 ,000,-
900 pounds of wool per year and con-
sumo 600 ,0Q0.pG0.
We use just two and one-half times
as much as we grow.
Democratic policy proposes to cheap
ell the 800 ,U00,0 900 pounds which we
import, in order That the cost of cloth
lug and other manufacturers of wool
may be reduced 10 the 60, 600 900
American people.
Democratic policy does not propose
TO sacrifice the wool growers, although
they furnish our WOODEN factories with
but II comparatively small part of their
supply, and although they constitute
only a trifing percentage OF the people
who use wooden goods and a small
portion of those who earn their living
by producing clothing and clothing
materials. Ii necessary, 1t would be
j%usutiable to sacrifice their advantages
tor that of all the people. But it is not
necessary; and moreover the demo-
cratic platform declares that ''the tariff
should be revised in a spirit of fairness
TO all interested.
As soon as foreign woods, which are
used to mix with American staple 80
produce American wooden goods, come
! down in price, American manufactures
will increase, and will be able to do a
larger business in wooden articles at
home aud also abroad by sales to for
eigu customers who now bny from
England, but who will buy from us as
Oon as we can compete with the Eng
fish. There will be a better demand
for the American raw material as. wei
as the foreign and American sheep
husbandry will reap encouragement
and profit instead of encouragement
and loss from the change. This result
will be helped by the fact that it will
no longer be as profitable rs it is now
to nse rags and waste to make shoddy
and cotton-mixed goods pass Them of

The wool tariff of the Mills bill is al
anti shoddy tariff, and the United
States are against shoddy, shoddy tariff
and shoddy politics.

THE DICTIONARY IN THE SCHOOL
ROOM.

Being Interested III all that pertains
to the SUCCESS and usefulness OF our
public schools, we would call tho at
tentiun of educators to Tie value of
early training in The use of language
and the need OF more thorough IIotruG
ton in the knowledge OF words. We
mean the E"gIsh language, and for the
most part, good old Anglo Saxon
words.
We are constrained To believe that in
far too many schools The ablIiiy TO
name words rapidly as they occur III
the reading lesson, III The geography or
the history is allowed TO suffice as the
full measure of instruction in The de-
partlnenl of language, and the pupils
thus pass to other fields without tho
ability TO either correctly spell or
properly pronounce the word they
have used, and with no knowledge at
all of their true Specification or wealth
of meaning.
The derivation or history of Il word
as found in the dictionary often opens
up u most delightful lielt tor study and
investigation, and through this the
learners ambition to attain greater
power and fuency in the use OF words
might be melted. We believe that the
learned man is most clearly distinguish
ed from the ignorant by his greater
command OF language and wider
knowledge Of the power OF words.
What better field can there be, then,
for the development Of II greater use
fitness Oh the, part ol our public schools
than through Il larger and more lntclll-
gent study OF our own vocabulary
Fortunately we have n standard
authority for the meaning and use Of
English words, a recognized and uni
versalIy conceded cOnrt of last resort,
an open "Webstcr," where are record
ed for the use of all, the decisions of
the best writer's and speakers upon the
correct usage of every item that goes
10 make up the beautiful whole of our
mother tOngue.s
We believe that public schools
will attain a greater usefulness, and be
more successful IN teaching language
just in the ratio that they send their
pupils to the dictionary with more fire.
quency, teaching them to study Its
record more in~telligently and abide by
its decisions more steadiastly. 1t needs
no argument TO prove that every school
room should be supplied with a copy
of Webstcr's Unabridged Dictionary,
as the foundation for improved
language work. AS a further means
TO this desirable end, we can make no
better recommendation than that every
pupil should acquire the habit of con-
slant reference TO authority by having
at his desk a copy of All abridged
edition OF Webster, and that every
teacher should be competent 10 give
instruction in its prof or use.
Without disparaging the other abridg'
memts. we regard Webster's Academic
Dictionary as the best of all for the
hourly use OF pupils, and when it is
remembered that its usefulness will
survive the pupils school days, and in
the absence of the unabridged, become

to say that it should be found OH the

FIGURES REPUBLICANS DON'T USE,


In his speech upon the tariff, Repre-
sentative Hatch showed by statistics in
The archives of the government h a
between 1850 and 1860, under the low
est tariff in seventy years, there was an
increase of l0l per cent. in the value OF
farms, stock and farming implements.
Between 1870 and 1880, III der the
highest tariff we ever had, there was
an increase of nine per cent In the
nine manufacturing states in 1850 the
wealth per capita was 1868; and in
1860 il was $52S-an increase of $165
per capita. under a low tariff. In 1886
the wealth per capita in these states
was 81 ,353 90 an Increase per capita from
1860 of 1925. In all the other states
the wealth per capita in 1850 was $275
and in 1860 il WAS $507-an increase
of 1892 per capita under the low tariff.
In these same states the increase per
caIiita from 1850 TO 1880, under the war
tariff, was SIG per capita. These
facts show that while farm values in
creased lOl per cent. under ten years
of low tariff, they increased but 9 per
cent. under a tariff alleged TO be for
protection. During the same time,
wealth per capita in manufacturing
states, while increasing under a low
tariff S165 made the enormous increase
of 1925 per capita under protection and
but Sl67 per capita in all the other
states.
MI. Hatch, to show who accumulated
this wealth in the thus tax-iavOred
manufacturing states, quotes from the
record facts TO prove that during the
period of low tariff, from 1850 to 1860,
there was an Increase in the value of
the farms, implements, etc, in the six
New England states of 1926 .312 1892,
and that from 1870 to 1880 there was a
decrease in the values of 1886, 096 1871 ;
thus proving that while the farmers of
New England prospered and accumu-
lated wealth during the ten years OF
low tariff, they have lost over 1886 ,OOO,-
600 under a tariff for the protection of
their neighbors, the manufacturing
nabobs. The swarm of Hugarians,
Poles, Italians and Chinese imported
and contracted for by the protected
manufacturers, for the purpose of COM
peting with and lowering the wages of
native workingmen and women coup
led with the facts above given, indicate
plainly enough whom protection pro-
tects. The people have to foot the
bills.

UAMERON's CONTEMPT FOR HAIR

From the Philadelphia Times

lotn lhO hiiouo'puiu LII
Senator Cameron makes no conceal
ment OF his hearty contempt for the
republican standard bearer. Recently
he had Senators Allison and Hale 10
accompany him TO his home for a visit
of few DAYS. In the parlor car of the
railroad train was a well known lawyer
and democrat, whose ability and whose
prominence in his state are attested by
the fact that he has twice represented a
republican district in congress. He
was not acquainted with Allison and
Hale, but knowing Cameron well
accosted him and was introduced to
his distinguished companions.
When the four were seated the senior
Pennsylvania senator said, and o IN IL
whisper:-"Well, do yon people intend
TO let that creature Harrison carry
lndiana?"
+. The Indiana statesman was rather
surprised, but saId:-''I think moi, | AN

! "Well," said Senator Cameron earn.
estly, ''you must watch our people
closely, for they intend to repeat the
1880 tactics upon you. But for heavens
sake, it only as an act OF charity, don't
let that creature Harrison be sen to
the White House."
"Charity? What do you mean?"
asked the lndianiaD, wonderingly.
"I'mean he would be so cotoundedly

son emphatically, "that it would be a
crime to send him there. No self

ate would go near him in the event OF
his election. l certainly would never
call upon him. Allison and Hale here

not have influence upon many voters,
