JUSTICE GRAY has sustained the de-
cision requiring manufacturers TO pay II
cents a pound for goat hair imported
here, no matter in what condition, or
whether it is tit for combing or not. In
summing up, Justice Gray says: "In
short, the present act not only clearly
directs that all goat-hair, without regard
TO its value or the purposes for which it
is used or suitable, shall be subject to a
duty of 10 cents a pound, but it avoids
every form Of expression which had
created doubt or difficulty in the con
struction Of earlier acts upon the sub
ject. This is gem to exhibit
the careful and artistic manner in which
the Mckinley bill was drawn to protect
the American worlingmen The hum
anitariens who concocted that imporish-
able'guido to prosperity forgot the wool
oombers in their enthusiasm for the
goats. They wanted moro goats, with
more productive goat skins They were
dissatisfied with that plentiful and
shameless lack Of ambition prevailing
among the goats which enabled them TO
produce five pounds of hair when they
should produce ten pounds. They
stimulated and encouraged the goats in
the goat-hair industry in three para
graphs thus:
Hair of goat, alpaca, etc, Glass I,
raised from 10 TO II cents per pound /;
class II, 10 to IL cents; class Ill, "a cents
to 32 per cent. per pound
This raise has made such disastrous
and costly difference in the trade that
the manufacturers of Boston have con.
Quoted a long and expensive law suit to
prevent the collection of the tax. The
goats and Mckinley won. The goat in
dustry will be saved. If the alpaca fac
tories are forced to leave the country or
to substitute shoddy it is no matter, for
we shall have more goats aud each goat
will grow more hair

Great waves of goods have
piled into the Dress Silk and
Novelty Dress Goods stocks.
A single item Bengaline
Dress Silk: Three hundred

Transept yesterday, all at once.
The Silk goods mans eyes
sparkled with Joy. Here were
the material results of long,
serious, painstaking work in
Lyons four months ago.
These Bengaline Silks in
terest every woman in all this
city who needs Silk for
Dresses this season. There
are seven varieties, of which
two have 90 colors, one has
So colors, and the remainder
less. The prices are very low,
qualities considered, $I.25,
SIS, $50 and $2.5o. The
shades vary from black to the
lightest for full EveningDress;
the weaves and the combina-
tions of colors show novel
effects.
The Novelty Dress Goods
vary from the mild and lovely
to the pronounced and gay.
You'd never imagine the
styles that are here in Velour

neatness, some simmer with
irridescence that combines the
color effects of a golden sun

In an interview with the reporter Of
the New York Herald Clark Howell of
the Atlanta Constitution says;
For thirty years the South has deplored
sectionalism as factor i'm federal cleo
tons. Time and again its representa-
tives have stood like a solid phalanX of
Spartan heroes against the most menda-
cious form of sectionalism-that which
had for its purpose the subjugation of
tho ballot boxes of one section for no
other reason than TO make corrupt use of
them in another For years the South
has prayed that the people in meeting
great national questions would be
allowed TO render their conscientious
Judgment unbiased by appeals to passion
and unprecedented by sectional demands as
unjust as they are unpatriotic. The per
sistcnt sectionalism of the Republican
party, its constant attitude of political
hostility TO the South, its threatened in
vasion of the sanctity of the Preside and
the freedom of the ballot box. its un-
ceasing demand for the humiliation of
as brave and true people as breathe the
air of heaven, have all united to make
the states Of the South unit against re-
publican oppression and partisan en-
croachment Down our way it is this
policy of sectional antagonism that is
called the bloody shirt. and God knows
we have longed for the day when there
would be no more of it. Just so long as
there is, the states OF the South may be
absolutely depended upon TO be a unit,
and when the Republicans have discre-
ton enough to let il alone then they may
expect a reasonable division ON the econ
omic questions at issue. II would be a
difficult matter now, however, for the
Republicans TO convince the country that
they could let the Force bill alone even
though they dismissed the subject In a
formal utterance Four years ago Vir-
ginia came within !, 200 votes of going
Republican, and West Virginia missed
IL by only 800, but watch the returns
from these two states this time, and see
what Mr.. Lodge and his bill have done
for the republican party. Yet the in
PRODUCTION of this measure was not the
result of advance declaration, as it would
be should it be heard from again i'm re.

party.
