HARASSED WOOL MEN
HOW THE DEMOCRATS HAVE
CHEATED THEM.
A short Chapter on the Condition
Which Confronts the Wool Growers
How Can They Vote the Democratic
Ticket?

Magnificent as has been the showing
of the wool industry in the United
States in che past twenty-five years,
yet it has during that time encountered
a constant friction. Whenever the
Democratic party has been in power,
which. unfortunately for the wool in
terest. has been much too often, ID has
brought in free-wool bill, and we
think it is no nearer fruition now than
in Fernando Woods time or Nor
rison's time or Mills's time. And
yet the Democrats put the fat
in the fire always, not only
their own fat, but, unfortunately, the
fat which the wool industry should
have. As it is now it is rather lean
after twenty to thirty years of Demo-
cratic agitation of free wool. What is
the most puzzling in it all is that a
man engaged in any way in wool grow
ing or wool manufacturing should ever
vote the Democratic ticket, and il
would seem as though only by hypnot-
ism or witchcraft could any sane man
be induced to vote for a party which
has done nothing but harass the wool
industry. 1t has been all loss and no
gain, for not step has been gained by
them, and only for the selfish desire
of party cry do they talk free wool.
We are quite sure that the common
sense of the people will again bury the
Democratic party for a time, but, I'M
fortunately, there is always a resur-
rection like that of 1890, and then
comes again free wool. We must have
patience and down the devil whenever
he turns up. Our sympathy goes out
to those in the wool industry, for the
many shipwrecks of fortune of the past
thirty years are almost wholly due to
free wool agitation of the Demo-
Gratis And what have they
gained by it? 1t has occasioned
not only loss to wool men, but, like
wise, loss to the Democrats, as Grover
Cleveland may remember. Now in
1892 the Democratic party again throws
down the Cleveland gauntlet. Will not
the answer of 1892 be the same as in

Chance for the Local Agrlcuiturist-
| ST. LOUIS, Sept. I2.-All the great
shows st. Louis Is TO have this winter
seem to group themselves about the
month of the Fall Festivities. The
crowd already here has arrived just
in time to see the big labor day parade,
which filled the streets with marching
men, flying banners and music, this
week. The celebration of German day
will take place before the people leave
the city. This is a festival peculiar to st.
Louis, which other large cities in the
United States are arranging to initiate,
There is parade of tableaux on floats,
second in beauty only to the Yelled
Prophets procession, and an open air
entertainment in the afternoon at the
Fair Grounds, where national amuse-
ments hold the ground till late hour.
From twenty to thirty thousand people
are in the parade, and over
fifty thousand go out to the Fair
Grounds, to say nothing of the thou
sands who ride out there to look at the
scene from curiosity.
Farmers in the Southwestern States
who have little corners OF land which
they can't plant with anything profit
ably, would make good deal of money
easily if they would follow the sugges-
ton to them in the combination Just
effected by the castor oil mills in St.
Louis. This city makes over half of all
the castor oil in the United States, and
the companies have got tired of the
fluctuations in price brought about by
competition, They will now fix
the price of both the bean
and the oil, and the farmer
can make contracts for all the beans
he can raise at a very good profit. The
new price of the bean will not be lower
than Si.50 bushel, and at this price
its culture will be very remunerative
to western farmers who go into the
business Systematically, and contract
ahead for all they raise. The demand
is constantly increasing, and pro-
tective tariff will keep tn market
from being flooded by the bean OF In
dia, which is the only other country
which can compete with this in the
supply.
During the cool weather which
came on st. Louis just as September
entered, there was a short and violent
thunderstorm one afternoon, and the
observers up in the signal office hastily
out all their Instruments took observa-
lions during every minute while the
outburst lasted. The next day they
compared their notes with those re.
ceived from other parts of the country
which were taken during the storm,
and were disappointed.

now to the task of finding ont where

LOSS OF LIFE AT SEA,

who have done noble service in safe.
guarding our sailors from the practices
resorted to in the past by rapacious
ship owners we think the great i'm
provement of recent years is too often
ignored, and the tendency to over
legislate very great says Engineer
ing.
In ten years tho number of lives
lost has decreased by nearly one half
and when it is noted that the British
fleet has in that period increased from
s 500. 900 to g. $50. 600 tons this
result is even more favorable. Our
sailing ships are being improved in
design so as the better TO withstand
great storms, and the adoption of
steel minimizes the danger of strand
ing. ! he small old wooden vessels
are disappearing at the rate
of about J. 900 year. These
facts indicate cause why the
proportion of lives lost to the total
tonnage entering and clearing our
ports has decreased from All per
100 900 tons in 1851 to 2.O6 in 1890.
This represents decrease according
to tonnage of one.half. In the case
OF steamers the increase in traffic is
equal to 43. 6 per cent AMI yet there
Is decrease in the number OF lives
lost OF 2S per cent In other words,
the lives lost were equal to 0. 81 per
100 900 tons of steamers frequenting
our ports in 1881, and in 1890 0.41
per 100 900 tons. In 1882 the ratio
was Los. and in 1886 0.l6 per 100
900 tons. These were the highest
and lowest in the decade. and indicate
the possibilities Of great fluctuations
due to extraordinary disasters. The
tendency, however is coward sub

OVER PRODUCTION.

Lesson Intended for the American
Farmers TO Read
The trouble with the American
farmer for the past ten years or SO has
been overproduction. He raised more
than there was market for at paying
prices. Yet this overproduction has
existed only in particular lines, as
wheat and corn, for example. All the
time we have been importing immense
quantities of other kinds of farm pro-
duce which he might just as well have
supplied us with. There, for instance,
are the items of beans and peas, of
which our small exports have been de.
creasing while our imports have pro.
crossed in the opposite direction, as
will be sen below

THE ENGLISH POST.
How 1t Is Trying to sneak Out of An
Uncomfortable Position.


In the campaign of 1888, who can re-
call without shame the impudent APP
preparation of the National flag as an
exclusive symbol by the Protection
party, and the RELOCATION of its oppo.
nents to the British flag, thus pro.
claiming a moral Acknowledgement, de-
naturalization and deportation of one
half the citizens of the United States.
The New York Evening Post.
Without attempting to answer the
Posts broad question, we simply de-
sire to call its attention to the follow
ing editorial utterance of another
great Mugwump frec-trade newspa-
per, the Boston Herald:
The American flag is simply num-
Der of pieces of textile fabric, of three
different colors, sewn together for the
purpose of making a predetermined
combination"
When free-traders are found sneering
at patriotism and ridiculing all feelings
of vencration for the American flag,
when they advocate n policy that
would break down our industries and
hand over our markets to foreigners,
they surely cannot blame protection
isis for chasing them as adherents of
treat Britain rather than of the United
States. Whatever else may be said of
our protective policy, it must at least
be admitted that that policy-the
American system, as it was named by
its great expounder, Henry Clay-is one
which is designed to stimulate sound
and healthy American sentiment. 1t
emphasizes the Importance of American
Industries, American markets and
American workingmen. Its funda-
mental doctrine is that American skill
is great enough, American talents are
varied enough, and American laborers
intelligent enough to enable us to man
ufacture at home everything that we are
not precludcd, by climate or other nat
ural causea, from producing. 1t is an
American policy, broadly, consistently
American, and as such its most appro-
pirate emblem is the American flag

Free trade has had five periods OF
relative prevalence in the history of the
United States-i. e., there have been
hve distinctly marked periods when
foreign competing imports have been
freer than at any others to enter our
ports, to the subversion and overthrow
OF domestic competing industries.
These were:
!. The colonial period, ending with
throwing over the tea in Boston har.
Dor and the battle of Lexington in
1915. The British parliament forbade
us to manufacture in order that they
might monopolize our market. This
