our people to 60 back to raising carpet
wool.
1t is estimated by high authority
that the increased cost OF carpet woods
under the proposed law would raise the
price of carpets anywhere from nine to
thirty-three cents a yard. Increased
cost means fewer sales, fewer carpeted
parlors, fewer carpet mills, and fewer
workers in them. And who is to be pro-
tected by this law?
Nobody; absolutely nobody,
1t is simply part of the scheme to
humbug the farmer by making HIM be-
lieve that he, too is getting some OF
the benefits of protection. twill be
nice tn ng to tell the farmer in cam
paign speeches, Here is protection for
you, too; we have not forgotten you;
you also shall grow rich"
Men who expect the farmer to believe
this stuff, so far as it relates to carpet
wool, give him credit for very shallow
brain. Instead of helping him, this
duty on carpet wool is direct injury to
him: for the farmer is to some extent
buyer of carpets. The price of carpets
will be higher by reason Of the gher
duty. But this is not the whole effect.
The quality of the carpets themselves
will be made much poorer. Everybody
knows that the use of shoddy in carpet
making has been very largely extended
during the past ten years. According to
the census of 1880 we used fifty-two mil
lion pounds of domestic shoddy, besides
what we imported. How much is used
now nobody knows exactly; but calcu-
lation has been made by the New York
Commercial Bulletin to show that at
least one-third of the material used by
our carpet and woolen mills is shoddy.
This paper is high authority in trade
circles, and its estimate deserves
careful consideration from the
grower of wool as well as from
the consumer of cloth and carpets. The
Bulletin estimates that the shoddy used
last year was some two hundred million
pounds. Every pound of shoddy used
of course draws out an equivalent of
pure wool. But the wool-grower," as
this paper says, never stops to con-
slider that this use of old wool, collected
in the form of old clothes and rags and
worked up after cleaning in the mills,
is powerfully stimulated by the very
steps he insists upon taking to Shut out
cheaper supplies of wool, Neither does
the consumer consider that the dete.
rioratiOn in quality of goods produced,
of which he often complains, is due in
considerable measure to the same in.
fuence. The manufacturers Of wool,
when forced to choose between high
priced wool and shoddy, inevitably use
more shoddy and less wool, and the
growers and consumers both get the
worst of it all the time. Nor is this
tendency one which can in any way be
arrested by legislative interference.
There is no remedy for it possible, ex-
cept to secure the amplest and cheapest
possible supplies of wool for the manu-
facturer. Any attempt to enhance the
price can only result in more rapid in
crease in the consumption Of shoddy."

TARIFF or 1881.
FREE WOOL.

So that free foreign wool and high
priced domestic wool go together Why?
Because the demand is lessened for
homo woods unless foreign wools arc
mixed with them, therefore, the easier
the entrance of foreign wool tho more
the demand and the higher the price Of
domestic wool. That's the reason. II this
increased demand of domestic wool ran
it up in price 25 per cent higher, it
were better for tho manufacturer to
stand this than to pay so per cent. duty
on the foreign wool which had been
mixed with it heretofore under the
existing tariff,
Tho advance Of 25 per cent, in tho
price OF domestic wool, and the saving
of so per cent, on foreign wool leaves a
clear saving OF 25 per cent, on tho
finished goods and the consumer would
get his share Of tho saving,
Sharp County record., 1890-05-29
Cheaper Wool and Cheaper Clothes.

The admission Of foreign wool free
will cause an advance in the price of
domestic wool and at the same time
lessen the price of woolen goods, WhyP
Because 1t is a statistical fact. For ex-
ample, from 1857 to 1862 nearly all tho
fine woods of South America and the
Cape OF Good Hope, and many of those
grown in Australia, were admitted free
Of duty. The prices of domestic wool
under the high tariff during the five
years ended in 1883 are put side by side
with the above:

A COMING Debate,

People are talking tariff NIL over the

county are doing lots Of earnest think
Ing on the subject. They are rapidly
getting their eyes open TO the iniquities
and inequalities OF the present system,
aud with the depressed price OF farm
products, with los corresponding de-
preston of land values, they are COM
ing 10 the conclusion that toriif reform
and less taxes would be a most excel
lent Investment, The country school
houses ARE being filled with tariff talk
these winter evenings, In the form OF
debating societies. This is encourag'
ing. Let the debate proceed, On Fri.
day evening, January 81, there will be
a farIner's debate AZ the Bowers school
