FRANCE TAKES A HAND,
She VIII Treat Us to Dose of McKlnle,
ism.

She VIII Treat Us to Dose of Mcklnley-
ism.
The French are trying their hand
low at high tar fl making, moved to do
so partly by the example OF our man
Mckinley. The commission having the
matter in hand says that one OF the
motives VIII ch induced it to propose
great increase OF duties was "the ex.
amples gwen by different foreign coun.
tries"
The foreign country whose tariff legis-
lat on has awakened most opposition in
France is the United States with her
two Mckinley laws FIRST came the
Mex nley customs law, which went into
effect August /, and which places great
and unnecessary difficult es in the way
OF our trade with foreign countries
This measure was intended and framed
with the direct purpose OF lessening our
purchases in foreign markets by putting
artificial and unjust restrictions in the
way What are some OF those dldlcul-
ties? Duties must be paid not only on
goods but on the boxes or other cover
ings and on all charges on the other
side in transporting the goods TO tho
seaports; tho goods must be accom-
panied by sworn statement from tho
manufacturer giving the cost Of each
component part OF them, and nothing
is to DO allowed at the custom houses
for breakage and damage at sea-
These barbariouS actions have had
very unpleasant effect on the French
manufacturers and whom this measure
was first passed by Congress last spring
there was much talk in France about
retaliation. Efforts were made to got
all the principal Governments OF Europe
to agree upon common plan OF retail
iation upon us; but these efforts we're
unsuccessful, the hostile and Jealous
nations OF the continent not being able
to pull together, and England, the great
free trade merchant nation OF the world,
being opposed to any scheme for raising
up barriers against trade
Meanwhile France had to o certain
extent takon matters into her own
hands, and had adopted q measure OF
partial retaliation against us Early
In the summer the grain tariff was re-
yscd. duty Of SS cents bushel being
imposed on our wheat whllo that OF
other countries was allowed TO come In
at 10 ceutsi and Indian corn hitherto
free, was made dutiable. The measure
has already resulted in restricting our
exports Of these commodities to France

The Democratic Gains In the Northern
States In the Late Election.

The Democratic Gains In the Northern
States In the Late Election.
The most impressive aspect Of the
Democratic victory in the next House
of Representatives is the fact that the
party has clear majority of members
elected in the Northern States, and does
not need single seat from the South
in order to outvote the Republicans.
Moreover, the Democrats have a md
jority Of the members elect in each sec
ton of the North. In New England
the Democrats have elected thirteen
Representatives, against Only twelve
Republicans, and their total would al
ready be fourteen, except that one can.
didate in Rhode Island, who had good
plurality, lacked q clean majority at the
last election, and must run a second
time, when a plurality will suffice. In
the old Middle States" of New York,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania, the
Democrats have elected thirty-nine
against only Thirty for tho Republicans,
In the West, taltng in the whole region
from the Alleghanies to the Pacific, the
Democrats and their allies among the
farmers have seventy-fve, against only
forty-two for Republicans. II we consid.
er rwhat iscommonly called "the Vest
including only the older States from
Pennsylvania to Colorado-the opposi.
tion have seventy-four members against
only twenty-seven Republicans, In
other words, alike in New England, in
the old Middle States, and in the great
States of the West the Republican par.
ty has become the minority party on
the Congressional issue. It's losses have
been heaviest in the States, like Massa.

While the Mckinley tariff makes it

While the Mckinley tariff makes IL
more expensive for our manufacturers
TO produce their wares, there is no use
in talking about reciprocity. We are
undersold in the markets of the world,
thanks to our system of tariff. Steam
shin subsidies. on which Mr.. Blaine so
much depends, never helped any nation
that tried them, as has teen abundant
" proved in the instance OF France
We can only depend upon our manu-
featured products in our trade with oui
neighbors, as they have all the raw ma
terial they require. The tariff increases
the cost of our. manufactured products
anil thereby leaves us out in the cold
when brought into competition with
European traders. Should the Presi'
dent exercise the power of retaliation
given him by the Mckinley act, it
would only have the effect OF entirely
destroying the only profitable foreign
trade we have. The other American
Republics would shut down absolutely
on the United States, for they can OBJ
tain all the imports they need from
European houses. The Pan-American
conference had no effect whatever
upon the plain principles of trade. The
countries represented in that confer,
ence will continue to buy where they
can get the best bargains. Our tariff
prevents us from offering them such
bargains. 1t is very simple question
which can not be befogged by any reci
procity delusion.-Albany Argus.

COTTON WEAVING.

A Combine to Keep Up Prices Notwlthstand-
ing Cut In Wages and the Great Cotton
Crop Profits of the Mills.
A late number OF the New York Dry
Goods Economist furnishes all uncon.
SC ously Of course, curious illustration
of the folly and uselessness of duty on
cotton cloth. In column of cotton
goods notes" it prints the following
item:
The cotton weavcrs in L nsdale, R have
re, eived a notice o. a cut. down. They were
getting SO cents on fifty. yard long ut, but
they ar" to run fin"r grade Of goods with
five yards additional on the 'ength, and will
r'c I'VE but IS cents cut The Valley Fa Is
AMI Ashton W AYERS wsg have been re-
duced about ss mu h. This is q reduction
OF more than one-ihird N wages
In the same column the Economist
says: THE largest crops Of cotton the
world has ever grown are in sight; the
price is low and may grow lower, still
manufacturers are doing their best to
make water run uphill in their en-.
deavors to maintain the price of cloth
at given figure" This was said in
reference to the "com bine" OF most OF
the Fall River and other wearers to
prevent sales of printing cloths, used to
make calico prints, at less than s 5-1o
per yard-an agreem ent which has thus
far been kept Notwithstanding the fact
that raw cotton has declined in price
nearly cents pound since August
So much for one column. In the very
next column the Economist prints an
article entitled, "Fall River Divi.
dends" The Fall River cotton mills
have just held their annual meetings,
and the reports for the year were hand.
ed in. This article gives the more
striking fats from those reports T&S
general net earnings or few OF these
mills are as follows:
The Flint mills earned S67,7 or 11H
per cent
The Stafford mills sl99 OOO or Is per
cent
The Narragansett mills Sol, 900, or Is
per cent,
The Hargraves mills SOS, 200, or nearly
10 per cent
The King Philip mills Slsl, 900, or IS
per cent
The dividends declared by these mills
were in each case considerably less
than the net earnings, the balance OF
the profits being added to the surplus
or else put into improvements From
Fall River paper it is learned that the
dividends paid out by another mill
amounted to l2 per cent, by two others
to IA per cent each and by the Granite
mills to 10 per cent
The Mckinley duty on the kind Of
cloth that the combine is kee ping up to
5-l6 cents a yard, is 21l cents a yard
or the same as 6i per cent ad valorem
and is OF course prohib tory duty, Do
the American people think that this
duty is necessary? Do they think 1t
reasonable? Lower wages, cheaper
cotton-both wages and cotton, too
cheaper than in Europe-and yet these
men arc granted prohibtory duties
How long will such things continueP
