oRIEvoUs WORK OF THE TARIFF
BILL.

A LOT of English, Scotch, Irish
and French men are running about
this country now, looking for favor
able sites on which to erect mills
and factories, where linens, hosiery
and wooden dress goods can be made.
They are hunting, too, for mills
that have been shut down, or they
are willing to purchase an interest
in American mills where these
goods are manufactured. They are
the agents of owners of mills which
have for some years been supplying
the American market with all the
fine linen consumed here and with
stacks and stacks of wooden dress
goods and hosiery that have been
sold by the American stprekeepers.
The new tariff is responsible for the
agents raid. The new rates OF duty
on the product of the European
looms threaten to ruin their trade
with America, and just as a matter
of self defense they are going to
move over here and manufacture
their goods. They won't shut up
their European mills, but none Of
the products of those mills will be
put on our counters. New York

speak to the toast of "the democrat

as any one man could have done,
but it would require at least a dozen
men to begin to represent the differ

PRICES AND INDUSTRY.

THE Free Trade newspapers still
continue the outcry about the rise
in prices because Of the Tariff, thus
grinding the axe Of the New York
importers who have overstocked
their market. Their statements in
many respects are contradicted by
the advertisements in other parts Of
their own sheets; and a large num-
Der of both manufacturers and deal
ers in goods on which the duties
have been raised have come forward
to declare that there will be no in
crease at all. One Boston grocery
store calculates that the Mckinley
bill means reduction of prices
amounting to s150,OO0 year to its
customers alone. Meanwhile, from
all parts of the country come assur-
ances Of an Improvement in business,
extension of operations, rise in
wages, increase in orders, and the
like. Within two years those who
have been deceived by the Free
Trade predictions Of disaster and a
lowered scale Of living, will be won
dering what was the fault found in
the new tariff law. This our friends
foresee, and the eagerness with
which they abuse the law before il
has had a trial of its effect on oul
industrial system shows they are
aware that this is their last and only
chance to make political capital out
of it.
One of their latest grievances is
that European manufacturers are
coming over to establish works ir
America, so as ''to get their share
of the profits made under protec
ton" They are welcome to come
Their coming means more employ
ment for American labor at Ameri
can rates ofpay. Itmeans European
capital applied to the development
Of our resources, and an increasing
demand for the products of mine
farm and fisheries. In Kentucky
an English firm contemplates setting
up great iron works at Lexington
and probably many of the ironmas
ters now visiting this country have
been observing the openings fol-
similar enterprises. A great French
firm engaged in the manufacture o
Of fine woolens expects to invest two
millions in a big factory on our sid'
of the Atlantic, and is considering
whether to select Philadelphia O.
Providence for the site. These ar

Wool produced in Nevada has
been pronounced, by experts, supe-

and it's thirteen cents a pound

Its only question of time when
America will produce the best and

free trade ideas, which would prove
a milestone around the neck of our
