In Favor Of Free Wool.

The Boston Journal said recently that
those manufacturers who have not signed
the remonstrance Of the National Asso-
citation Of Wool Manufacturers s'are too
few and inconspicuous to require atten-
tion." The remonstrance is against free
wool. The American Wool Reporter,
itself strong supporter of protection,
takes the Boston Journal to task and
says that in Massachusetts, only 169
wooden manufacturers signed the re-
monstrance, while POS refused to sign it.
It also says that 'smany of these are
very important manufacturers, and that
IAN analysis of New Hampshire, Con-
necticut, Rhode Island and other states
would show similar results

Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1892-09-15

Republican politicians are unanimous
in declaring that protection has had
nothing to do with the Homestead wage
reductions and the strike in which thou
sands there are concerned, yet they are
embracing every opportunity-and they
are very few-to announce an advance
in wages, which Of course is due to the
Mckinley act. Over 500 wage reduc-
tions in protected industries have been
reported, and it will be strange if few
cases could not be found where wages
had been advanced; but The American
Economist, which has been searching
high and low, has been about as un-
fortunate as Ex-Governor Campbell, of
Ohio, who has not found single in
stance where wages have been advanced
because Of the Mckinley tariff act.
The American Economist alleges that
that It has found such cases, but un.
fortunately they are not such as tostand
criticism. On July %, for the third OF
fourth time, The Economist announced
that there had been general increase
Of 8 per cent. in the wages of the en-
ployees of the Kings County Knitting
company in Brooklyn. A man was sent
to investigate this case. After much
trouble and search he at last heard that
the company was located in the suburbs
Of Brooklyn; reaching there he found
that the firm had removed to another
remote corner of the same city. At last
he found the great concern in the top
floor of building. It consisted Of three
men and ten to fifteen girls. The pro-
prietof, who happened to be on hand,
could remember of no advance in wages
until reminded of The American Econ
Omist's announcement. Three of the
girls were also seen; each declared that
there had been no advance in wages to
her knowledge, but that they were earn
ing less than in previous years.
The search will be continued and it is
hoped that more favorable reports may
be made, though the outlook is not
promising.
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1892-09-15

Several interesting facts haye been
brought out by the discussion of towage
rates charged by tugs on Puget Sound 70,
towing vessels from the straits to port
and return since the subject was opened
by letter received by Secretary Shasner
Of the Commercial club, from Best 4
Co., of Antwerp. Belgium.
1t is probable that Best & Co., had not
received the revised rates as they now
exist, and are not considered high when
compared with those charged on the
Columbia river. The distance hauled on
Puget Sound to Tacoma is 10 miles,
while the Columbia river haul TO Port
land is only lie miles, and there pilotage
is charged extra, while on Puget Sound
it is not. The following is schedule Of
existing rates from which comparison
can easily be made:
