Now Protection has Worked In the
Case Of Calico

Europe, and we paid 50 cents yard

began TO establish the manufacture
here, and the price has gone on going
down, until today what do we see:
The duty on cotton prints IS 4 cents a
yard. They are worth cents, com
mon standard prints, in Great Britain.
Now, If the Tariff is tax, all the do
mestic prints in America should be
sold for cents yard. Are they:

Should Not Feel Bad.

We are really sorry that Mr. De-
scent feels hurt over his defeat in the
race for alderman We know he ought
to have been elected, but we were just
as confident before as after the cleo
tion that he would not be We tried
to explain to him that the few Repub-
Leans who succeeded in getting con-
troll of the ward had sold the party out,
ard that his nomination was only per
United at all to prevent open rebellion
in other quarters. The deal was to
elect Mr.. Linnen Alderman and Mr..
Catln Supervisor, the two throwing
their respective strength for each 9th
er. Mr.. Catlin succeeded in delivering
his party vote to large extent to Mr..
Linnen, as his vote clearly shows. But
Mr.. Linnen either Intentionally went
back on Mr.. Catlin or else he was un-
able to deliver the goods sold before
the election. Under such circum-
stances it is no wonder that Mr.. De
scent was defeated and that ne did not
get even his party vote. We hope to
be able some day to redeem the first
ward from its present low estate.

Work OF the Mckinley Tariff.

Woonsochet, r. /. is good place to
study the practical operation Of the
Mckinley Tariff act Among the new
establishments which have been
brought into existence by that act are
the River Spinning Company's Works
for manufacturing fine WOODEN and
worsted yarns When the act was
passed Belgian firm having d plant
worth 1900, 900 was exporting fine
grades of yarn to the United States on
Il large scale. 1t determined TO put up
a plant in Rhode Island with the as
sistance Of English and American cap
ital. Breaking ground in Woonsocket
last July, it had in operation bv Janu-
airy four buildings and al extensive
plant. It's first investment was 600. 900
and within three months has found
itself able to manufacture the finest
lines of goods most successfully. The
capital is to be increased to 81 900. $50,
and the works are to be speedily en-
larged SO as to include sixteen build
inss and employ 400 operators. As the
quality Of the yarns is superior III fine
ness. the most skilled labor is required
SO that wage earners in the new fac
tories Will have the best class of me-
chanical work, and Will receive the
highest wages for it. The success of
the venture is SO well marked that 1t
Is not improbable that the Belgian
plant will be abandoned or largely
transferred to Woonsocket, and a
great industry introduced on a large
