Another Word About Wool.

Mr.. Thomas Dolan, in a letter to the
New York World giving his opinion OF
''what the MaRinley tariff act has al.
ready accomplished, makes one very
interesting statement. He says:
During the first quarter of the pres
ent year the general imports of wooden
fabrics fell off from $15, 700, 900 to $1O,-
S67, 900. simultaneously there was a
large increase of imports of raw wool,
showing plainly that American mills
were having such active employment
as they have not had for many years
past. 1t is an interesting fact, deserv-
ing much emphasis of statement, that
the prices of wool are lower now than
they were one year ago. This decline
was distinctly promised by protection
lists during the discussion which accom-
panied the framing of the Mckinley
tariff"
Mr.. Dolan is gentleman who meana
what he says, and who has the capacity
to say what he means In the face of
the prohlbitlve duties placed upon
woolens and the large importations in
anticipation of increased tariff duty, it
would have been remarkable indeed, il
imports had not fallen off after the
tariff went into operation. But the in
crease of importations of raw wool was
not looked for; and the decline in the
prices of wool as result of the increase
of wool duties will be in the nature of
a revelation to farmers. This latter
declaration of Mr.. Dolan's will make
trouble for Mr.. Mckinley if it shall
leak out in Ohio. The farmers of Ohio
know very well that wool has gone
down; but they do not know that the
protectionist tariff-makers, of whom
Mr.. Dolan was one, intended to force it
down.
Probably no fact is better established
from the history of tariff legislation in
this country than that low duties on
foreign wool stimulate the demand for
domestic wool by giving manufacturers
the advantage of cheaper imported raw
material with which to ad1nix the home
product. The result has been ICON
trary to the general rule) that the
average prices of wool have been
higher under low tariffs than under
high tariffs.
Mr. Dolan understands this; but the
wool-growers do not-Record, Phila-

We Can Build Cheap Ships.

Such steamers as the City of Paris
and the City of New York or the White
Star boats could be built as cheaply in
America as in England Record inter-
view with Mr.. Charles E. Cramp,
August 2S
This utterance, made by one of the
most experienced, slsillful and success
full ship-builders in the United States,
after recent examination of ship
building establishments in Great
Britain, is a striking confirmation of
the contention of tariff reformers that
the superior effectiveness of American
laborers and American methods fully
compensates for the advantage to Brit
ish ship builders derived from cheaper
material and cheaper labor. We respect
fully commend the frank testimony of
Mr.. Cramp to the attention of subsidists
and protectionists throughout the
country who can not be made to be-
lieve that the best labor is the cheap
est.
For some reason not yet explained
Maj. Mckinley failed in his great open
ing speech to refer to the fact that un-
der his robber tariff on woods and
woolens girls are making pantaloons in
Chicago for six cents a dozen and sew
ing on cloaks at the rate of forty cents
for fifteen hours. If protection makes
wages high, what is the matter with
the employees of the Chicago sweaters?

A COMPOSITION on the Goldfish.

School has not been in session verv
long, but the young American has
managed to get in the following con-
densed history of familiar subject
"All the fishes in the sea are not cod
fishes. If they was it would be tough
on them which is mermaids now. Some
folks say mermads amt fishes; but all
ever heard about them sounded pretty
fishy. The ancient Greeks liked cod
fish to eat. The ancient Greeks are all
dead now. The Goldfish are pretty well,
thanks, call again. The Goldfish are
what makes the ocean water taste so
stale and salty; but the codfishes are
long ways ahead of the water W hen it
comes to tasting stale. Some cooks say
that codfishes are good with sauce;
never seen Goldfish fresh enough to
sauce anything. The way to get good
table salt is to bile some codfishes in
kettle and sift the water; then you can
use the codfishes again, Some people
like to eat codfishes. Some people like
to kiss COWS, but I'd rather Mollie
Brady's little brother was in the house
before I begin kissing for keeps. If
lost Goldfish I wouldn't call out the
police much, though Goldfish balls are
firstrate when they are nearly all pota-
o,and you can't smell the Goldfish taste
on them. A Goldfish can swim to the
bottom of the sea, and when he wants
to come up he fills his bladder with air
and floats right up skimming. If any
one knows where he gets the air down
there you can beat my time Cape Cod
is after the codfishes. So is nearly all
the people, round Cape Cod. They have
nets and lines and traps and hooks and
boats, &C., and when they get right
down to work Mister Goldfish has to
hustle for his daily bread. This is all |
know of the common, everyday cod
fishes. There is Goldfish aristocracy, my
pa says, which is sometimes in the
swim, but mostly in the soup. Goldfish
soup reminds you of epsim salts if
you've been there ever"

Mt Vernon Banner.l
A prominent Republican farmer of
Liberty township, while in conversa-
tiun with a Democratic neighbOr the
other day in regard TO the Alliance
movement, spoke substantially as fol-
lows: You know" said he, "that /
have been lifelong Republican, and
never voted any other than Repupli-
can ticket. This farmers movement is
a revolt against Republican legislation,
which enriches the monopolists of the
country at the expense of the other in
dHstrial interests. For my part desire
to strike at the root of this evil. and
defeat the party that has deceived and
betrayed the farmers. You may think
it strange when tell you that have
made up my mind to vote straight
Democratic ticket hereafter"
After writing the foregoing we came
across the follOwidg in the last issue of
the Chilicothe advertiser. 1t shows
that the leaven is working:
George Watson, a prominent farmer
of Jefferson township, was caller at the
advertiser office last Monday.

Mr.. Watson. "Until two years ago |
always voted the Republican ticket
without much murmuring, but be-
gan to realize that something had to be
done to change the condition of the
farmers. 1t has been growing worse
year after year, under the high tax the
ory and practice of the Republican
party which bears down with such
heavy weight upon all classes, particu
larly the farmers. Two years ago |

now is lighter taxes all around, and AS
the tariff tax is the heaviest they have
to bear, they should open their eyes to

place for the purpose of challenging
electors in such precincts where the
votes are not registered, and they may

who shall serve without compensation

oath that they twill not cause any
delay to persons offering to vote furth-
er than is necessary to procure satlsfac-
tory information of the qualification of
such person as an elector;" and that
they twill not dislose or communicate

who is this Hon w. !. SquireP We are
not aware that there is any such per-
son in this bailiwick. Squire's record
has been shown in the Commercial and
is well known to citizens long resident
here as that of man who was removed
from the pablo schools, expelled from
the church in which he had a member
ship, expelled from the social club of
which he was member, on charges of
immoral practices which were sustain
ed on investigation by the school board.
How the title of Hon even ever became
prefxed to his name is something no
one in Toledo can tell
1t is in full keeping with his superla-
tive gall to open headquarters at the
State capital to take charge of che state
campaign, an interference with the
rights of the regular executive commit
tee of the party in the state. He has
been accused of making use of his po-
sition as president of the Republican
league of the state to carry out his own
ambitions, to influence nominations
and to WELD the organization for pur-
poses for which it was not intended.
In this city it is easily conceived that
the new move is in the interests of
his friend, political and personal, Hon.
Charles P. Griffin.
This new fiedged boss is determined
to rule or ruin the party and is taking
an apt method of accomplishing one or
the other, by the methods he has pur-
sued since the league was wild enough
to put such man at it's head. He is
just the man to step in and deprive the
duly appointed party managers of their
prerogatives under the guise of assist
ing the party. Let every republican in
the state keep his eye on that man
Squire and his particular henchman,
Griffin, and they will see manipulation
that will drive the state democratic

along without the American mecnanfcc
They sent agents to Wales TO hire for
eign labor to dip the plates, for the rea-
son that it was much cheaper than
American labor The contract laborers
came to this country, and when pro-
test was made that the law which pro-
hibits the importation of contract la
Dor was being violated, the patriotic
American labor-loving manufacturers
Of tin plate held up their hands and
raised their voices at the insolence of
native born labor, declaring that there
was conspiracy Ito throttle at its
birth the tin plate industry" They ap-
pealed to the treasury department to
protect their contract Wales tin plate
laborers." An official of the treasury
decided that as the tin plate in
dustry was ''an infant" that it was not
a violation of the contract labor law to
import foreign laborers, and that they
should be permitted to land, accompany
their importers to their dipping facto-
riss and take the places of the dearer
American mechanics. This decision
was made without consultation with
Secretary Foster, and as soon as that
acute, far-seeing politician heard of the
decision, he recognized its assinine
character and revoked it. Had that de-
cision Stood the whole snap would have
been given away; the dirty mask would
have been torn from the hypocritical
faces of the authors of the infamous
n-plate clause of the tariff bill, and
the people would have been undeceived

Plate cry is simply fraud, umitigated

There Are no Tin Plate Manufactures
in the United States.

There are no tin plate manufactures
10 the United States. Under the plea
Of establishing such factories the Nc
Kinley tariff largely increased the im-
port duty. When the tin plate clause
was before the house of representa-
tives, Congressman Ben Butterworth
denounced the proposition as monstrous
and declared that it would cost the peo-
pie of the United States fifty millions
BIT dollars to establish the industry.
Mr.. Butterworth was moderate in his
estimate. 1t will cost the people one
hundred and fifty millions and then it
will still be an infant industry. 1t will
take its place among what the repub-
licans call the struggling activities
There will never arrive day when the
protectionists will concede that any in
dustry is able to stand alone After
eighty years it is found that the woolen
industry needs more protection than 1t
did when it was first started. The
manufacture of cotton goods is just as
helpless as it was three-quarters of q
century ago. The iron interest is no
more able to stand alone than when the
furnaces went into blast under the first
application of the protective policy.
The tin plate industry will never be
anything but an infant--a sucking on
the people.
The republican press are asserting
chat tin plate factories have already
sprung into existence. 1t is false
hood. There Is not sheet of iron
rolled in the United States ft to be
made into tin plate. There is not suf-
hcient tin ore produced in this country
to finish a thousand boxes of tin.
The object of the increased duty, as
fixed in the Mckinley bill, is to give
opportunity to republican capitalists to
rob the people. No effort has been
made to manufacture the iron sheets.
1t was not the intention of the trainers
Of the Mckinley bill that there should
be. There is profit enough for the
greedy protectionists in dipping the
Sheets" They import the sheet iron,
and they import the tin pig. They melt
the pig and dip the sheets, and call it
american tin" When the tariff
bill went into effect and the 'stin
plate manufacturers" as they style
themselves, discovered that Amer

mense profits which were in the
business, demanded share of them,

Cheapening Living.

Mr.. Scruggs, our minister to Ven
ezuela, is reported as saying that reci-
procity treaty with that country is
likely to be concluded. The objecting
congressman in Venezuela, the minister
reports, 'were made to see that mate
rial reductions in the duty on -four,
petroleum and other articles would SO
increase the importations that they
would lose little if anything in revenue,
while the people would get the advan-
tage of reduced prices
Just so. That is the way it is every
where. Reduced tariffs means lower
prices.
When the protection leaders wished
to give the people cheaper sugar, in
hopes .of reconcilihg them to higher
prices on other things, they took off
the duty. Free sugar meant cheaper
sugar.
Reciprocity is commended to South
American and Spanish American states
because it gives their people ''the ad-
vantage of reduced prices" The prices
are reduced by repeating the duties

sumption and add to the health and
comfort of these people.-N. Y. World.
