COTTON MANUFACTURERS.

A contemporary refers to reported move
ment on the part of Fall River cotton manu-
facturers to reduce the wages of operatives
as a demonstration of the truth of the oft
repeated assertion that the manufacturer
pockets the difference between the price of
goods under free trade and the price under
a protective policy 1t asserts in effect that
the cotton manufacturers OF Fall River take
advantage of the lack of foreign competition
to reduce the rates of wages, while selling
their goods at prices just enough below
foreign prices, after paving duties, to retain
the trade. The truth of the matter is that
competition among home manufacturers
has reduced prices very nearly to the cost
point The thirty-seven increases in the
cotton goods schedule made by the McKin-
lev tariff were designed mainly to prevent
the unloading of the foreign surplus on the
American market. In most kinds of cotton
goods the American cost is about down to
the foreign cost. A cotton manufacturers
combine" is perhaps possible, but hardly
probable. There is no secret in the manu-
facture of cotton goods which enables manu-
facturerS who possess it 20 crush out those
not in the combine" The capital required
in the business is not sufficient to deter men
from building new plants If old ones were
more than ordinarily remuneratiye. There
is in fact no point whatever in orr free
trade contemporary article except its I'M
accountable regret at the transfer of an in
dustry from Europe to the United States.

81 AM A CITIZEN"

Colonel William Forsyth apparently stated
q fact when on Saturday morning he de-
clared himself a citizen Of the United States.
He was made one on Thursday. People who
were searching the records fol- evidence Of
lis citizenship evidently did not know
where TO look. They turned the leaves that
recorded naturalization completed years
ago, but neglected those which recorded
the events Of the preceding day, II appears
that Colonel Forsyth came to the United
States while a minor, and has since been
content to live as an alien. 1t took him a
long time to make up his mind that the
Government Of the United States " as good
e. ough Tor him. How much longer would
have been required if an Office Of distinction
and profit had not been held out as an in
ducement to become a citizen we need not
now inquire. The hope Of Office brought
him to terms. The surrender of his hertz
age as a British subject may have been
made with some reluctance, but the tempta-
ton to become an American citizen was too
great to be resisted.

FROM 90 TO "a.

The people of New FORK have ceased to
complain about the weather, except ON extra
occasions. When the thermometer runs be-
tween 800 and 800 in the summer months
they submit to it as a matter of course
When in the winter it drops to zero they
congratulate themselves on the fact that in
all probability it will not go much lower.
But when Tuesday of a June week records
990 in the shade and Friday OF the same
week records $40 these patient people feel
that they have a right 10 complain. Yet
New York has had one such experience this
year. On June 10th the thermometer where
people live stood for some hours at go and
on Friday, the 18th. it dropped TO sac A
change of foriy-fye degrees was experienced
within three days. The resident of San
Francisco will please to remember that the
changes in this city rarely exceed twenty
degrees. When the Thermometer touches 600

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Sir John Macdonalds estate outside of his
residence Is valued at 100000. His railroad
policy enriched many, but lie evidently was con-
tent 10 let others reap the benefit, while he en-
joyed the pleasures OF power, 10 retain which lie
at times resOTted 10 the tricks OF Willy pollti
clan. When Sir John was undergoing the
severeSt ordeal OF bis life, the investigation of
the Pacific Railway scandal, and hot charges Of
personal corruption were preferred against Eim,
he was equal TO all emergencies. A correspond
ent declares that he never witnessed a more
dramatic scene than when, repelng The aecusa-
tiOns IN the House Of Commons al Ottawa. Sir John
stepped in font OF his desk and, holding out his
hands, palms upward, toward the Opposition
benches, exclaimed with a dramatic force which
would have been no dscTedit 10 Booth, These
hands are clean" The effect was electrical
Even some OF his political opponents joined in
the applause.
On the 1st OF July the Weather Bureau will be
transferred TO The fostering care Of the Secretary
of Agriculture. The act making the transfer
contains a clause TO the effect that the enlisted
force of the Signal Corps excepting those other
WISE provided for, shall be hOnorably discharged
from The Amy on June 30th and such portion OF
this force as may be necessary for the proper
performance Of the duties OF the Weather Blu
reau shall. If they choose be transferred 10 the
Department Of Agriculture. The conn ensatiOn
OF the force so transferred is to continue the
same until otherwise provided by law, provided
that skill, observers serving in the Signal Serv
ice az that date shall be entitled TO preference
over persons not in the Signal Service for APP
pOintment IN the Weather Bureau TO places for
which they may be qualified until the expiration
OF the term for which they were enlisted.
The Railroad Gazette concludes from official
statistics that the net saving 10 the people Of The
United States on The freight carried IN vessels
through the st. Alarys River Canal, as compared
with what The railroad charges would have been
for the same service, was nearly twice as much
in the single season OF 1890 as the entire sum OF
S26 COOS 600, IN round figures, as yet expended by
the Federal Government In the improvement OF
lake waterways. What great benefit the com
peIOn OF an interOceanic canal would be to the
commercial interests Of the Pacific Coast. Not
only would millions be saved In freights, but
trade all along the Coast would be greatly slim
uiated.

POLICEMEN,s PLACES.

There are said to be two thousand appli-
cantS for the twenty-five new places in
the Police Department. Each of the two
thousand applicants is bringing all the in
fuenee he can control to bear upon the APP
pointing power. twenty-five of them will
succeed and 1875 will fail. There is in a
certain sense a proposition before the peo-
pie to pension the twenty-five who do sue
eeed at the expense partly Of the 1915 who
fail. 1t is urged that when policeman has
served the public twenty years or so he
ought to be taken care of for the rest of his
life. 1t is a peculiar kind of justice, how
ever, which pensions men who draw prize
at the expense of the ticket-holderS who
draw blanks.

WHAT II WAS.

A Travelling Man Discovers That He Has
Slept With Strange Company.
gentleman who travelled in the rural
districts of the West some years ago says
that to this day he has creeping sensa-
ton" when be recalls his experience in
spending the night at farm-ho 1t was
late in the summer and the farmers were
doing their thrashing. while their wives
were emptying their ticks and refilling them
with clean straw.
just before dark the traveller reached a
comfortable-lOoking house. where a hearty
welcome was accorded him when he asked
if he might stay all night. While eating his
supper he heard the farmers wife say TO
her husband and son:
The straw tick from the spare room bed
viii have TO be filled. | emptied 1t to-day
and forgot all about it until this minute"
When the tired guest was shown 10 his
room he undressed hastily and climbed into
bed. Every movement of his body caused
the straw to rustic under him, and pretty
soon he discovered that il rustled even when
he was lying perfectly still He has ner-

for a moment and then the straw would

He sat up in bed. AT once the rustling
became more violent than ever and he dis

looked at his straw tick. I'll was still now.

He got back into bed. but passed rest
less, wearisome night, hearing the rustling
sounds frequently. The next morning he
said to his host:
81 beg your pardon, but L think that a
mouse or some small animal was in the
straw you put into the tick on my bed last
night. l heard and felt something rustling
around constantly"

BATHING IN SALT LAKE.
First Experience of a Tourist With
One of Natures Curiosities.

Salt Lake and the city of the same name
are most pleasant sights. A dip in its
briny waters is indeed a luxury. The
railroads have created Garfield Beach and
here the good Mormons and the tourists
go down together into the salty LIQUID
Not quite so many people are to be seen
there aS at Atlantic City, but the place is
usually crowded during the summer
days. Those who bathe in the lake.
writes a traveller in the Pittsburg DIS
patch, should be posted first TO keep the
water out of the eyes and nose. To saw
that is per cent OF it is salt gives one no
idea of It's effect. 1t is when it burns the
eyes to redness and almost strangles YOU
if it goes into the throat that YOU begin to
realize just how salty ii is. The first inn
pulse of most bathers is TO dive head first
into the water, and those who do it from
ignorance or sheer foolhardiness ALWAYS
regret it with tears and violent cough
ings.
The water itself is rs clear as crystal,
and the white sand in the bottom is as at
tractive as the golden silt of the Atlantic
You can't sink in Salt Lake, and You
float around for hours lying in almost
any position, providing you keep your
mouth out OF the water, but, even if your
intents are suicidal and you choose to
drown, your friends will have no trouble
to find you. The great Salt Lake will carry
you on its bosom as it would log, and q
