A SPECIAL OUTLET FOR PRINT
CLOTHS.
tCotton and Wool Reporter.I

1t is an interesting coincidence that
along with the renaissance of print dress
goods and the multiplication of patterns
and the consequ emily increased demand d
for the cloths which year ago were ex-
periencing season of most discouraging
depression, the Columbian celebration
should OPPORTUNITY occur to incidentally
contribute additional impulse to the
trade which even without this acciden tai
factor bade fair to be phenomenal.
But nothing succeeds like success in
the light Of the pronounced favor with
which the turkey red, cardinal and indigo
blue styles in prints have been everywhere
received, one can see that the request for
ceremonial decorations for flags and
shields. of which these brilliant fast
colors are the feature, follows in strict
logical sequence the successful movement
in print dress goods novelties.
The demand for fast color printed flags
ana Cor various other devices is a mani
festation Of the popular enthusiasm
which everywhere greets the Columbus
anniversary. and as this enthusiasm is AS
wide in its reacn as the continent, and
pervades every community, the call for
these goods has been exceedingly lively.
The lavish display OF tri-colored ceremon-
ial devices, witnessed last week in New
York, will be duplicated in the several
other metropolises of our Union, will be
perhaps surpassed in Chicago, while il
will BE- repeated OH an approximate scale
In several hundred other less populous
cities whose honorable local pride is as
strong as that which prompts Boston,
Philadelphia. Baltimore, ST. Louis or
New Orleans to make the celebration
worthy OF its occasion.
The cloth which has been employed for
"a very considerable portion of the myriad
decorations which at all points have re-
enforced the usual display of bunting, is
the STANDARD 27-inch" which is woven
on the traditional narrow looms which
are operated in the print cloth mills of
Massachusetts, RHODE ISLAND, New York,
South Carolina aud Georgia. When Que
thinks of the part which mordants and
dyes play in the whole story of these
cloths and of those of cottons in general
which owe their attractiveness mainly to
the printers, he readily realizes that
"paint costs nothing" AS the Dutch pro-
verb has it; the degree in which the value
of anything is enhanced by little jude
ious embellishments is, generally. from
purely material point of view, several
times greater than the extra expense in
Cured in producing the pleasing effect
which is thereby accom- plished.

1t is an impressive fact to consider
that the number of manufacturing es-
/ tablishments in any series of cities IN
creased 1876 per cent during one
decade, that the capital employed in
creased 1870 per cent, the number
employed 130 per cent, the wages paid
ls5.03 per cent, the cost of material
1891 per cent, the value Oh products
104.7S per cent. The population in these
cities increased 7O.27 per cent and the
assessed valuation 109.2l per cent.
These figures are worth considering
with special care. They show that the
manufacturing interests increased Won
derfully under the imperfect protection
afforded them prior to the enactment of
the present protective tariff act. They
fully warrant the belief that this decade
will make far better showing when
the twelfth census makes its report.
They also fully warrant the Republi-
can claim that the protective tariff ope-
rates directly in the interest of the
working people, to whom wages are
paid. Wages increased more than any
other item covered by the inquiry, ex-
cept the capital invested - 1891 per
cent more than the value of the product.
This very sharply emphasizes the claim
sometimes made that capital gives labor
its full share of the profits of manufac-
turing. While there is very large i'm
crease of capital over the increase in
number Of establishments or the value
of products, necessitating reduction
of dividends TO capital, the wages paid
have increased, as stated, almost "a per
cent more than the value of the pro-
ducts.
The showing OF PROVIDENCE among
the other cities requires to be considered
in the light of our peculiar situation.
Many of the Western cities, and some
of those in the East, owe some part of
their great increase to liberal annexa-
ton of contiguous territory. PRovI
DENCE owes its comparative low per-
centages to the fact that so much of her
manufacturing - the manufacturing
owned 10y our citizens and sustained by
our capitals done in populous suburbs
that are virtually part of the city
though nominally belonging to other
towns. The whole state must be con-
sidered TO show the importance of
Providence as a manufacturing city.

THE evidences of our countrys great
ness and material progress as shown in
the preparations for the Worlds Fair
rser7 cGly 20 have excited feelings Of
envy and jealousy in the minds of our
English cousins. Fortunately for these
United States we are so prosperous that
we can afford to almost entirely disre-
gard the opinion Of England whether il
be one of approval or disapproval. But
1t Is sad fact TO contemplate that if

tury, another hundred years may see

Thus far only the ludicrous elements
of the refusal of Gen. Weaver to con-
tinue his political discussions in the
Scrth have been dwelt upon, but the
causes for his refusal, namely the. brutal
treatment to which he was subjected by
the Southern Democrats, are fit subjects
for deeper thought. When the leading
representative of party is not allowed
by his opponents to speak peaceably to
those who wish TO hear him, it is indeed
questionable whether that community
is worthy of the rights of self-govern-
ment. 1t may be laid down as a funda-
mental axiom of social government that
no man, body of men or State should
possess rights and privileges which
they openly misuse, not TO say abuse.
1t is the great legal and constitutional
question of personal freedom that is
here involved. The political opinions of
Gen. Weaver and their value from an
economic standpoint are wholly foreign
to the issue which confronts us in the
treatment to which he was subjected by
the Southern Democrats. What we
need to know only is that his citizens

tee OF the constitution was valueless in
its sight and that that community at
least proposed to disregard Federal law.
Such are the facts. 1t remains for
our northern Democratic and Indepen-
dent friends to explain then satisfac-
torily. 1t remains also for public opin-
ion to formulate the punishment which
should be meted out to the lawless. If
the constitution and Federal law have
become dead letters, it would seem to
be fitting time TO revive them. 1t
makes little difference whether the
means of reviving them be the so-called
force bill or return to the carpet
bag" rule at the point of the bayonet.
The silence of the northern Democ-
racy on this question is eloquent. for
they fully realize that community
that will refuse the freedom of speech
will also refuse the freedom of the bal
