FIELDER AND THE WILSON BILL,
Relieves it VIII satisfy Jersey Manu-
facturers.


Congressman George B. Fielder, was at
home yesterday, having made a flying trip
from Washington. A reporter of THE NEWS
interviewed him relative to his attitude on
the Wilson tariff bill.
Congressman Cadmus and myself" !" said
Mr.. Fielder twill probably stand together in
our action if the industries of the State are
seriously affected. l think, however. when
the bill is reported it will be in such shape as
to be entirely satisfactory to the manufactur-
ing interest of New Jersey.
delegations representing the industries
and wage-earners of this State have been in
Washington the past week protesting against
the bill in its present form. The silk, wooden,
spool cotton and linen thread and drug inter
ests, as well as those of the Singer Sewing Ma
chine Company, of Elizabethport, were repre-
sented To what extent the wooden and silk
industries will be affected do not know, but
as for the spool cotton and linen thread in
dustries, these delegations are advised by the
bill now in the hands of the various members
of Congress-not yet, however, reported to
the House-of a reduction of thirty-six per
cent. on linen thread
My position as a member representing the
district in which those industries are situated
is that if the bill is reported in the House
with those sweeping reductions l shall go
into the Democratic caucus protesting
against said reductions. and shall qualify nv
presence in the caucus by reserving to myself
the right to vote for or against the bill in it's
present form.
1T is currently reported in Washington
that there are at least thirty-eight who have
expressed their ideas in the same direction =

HAS THE ERIE BEEN SOLD

New York, Dec IS, 1S93-The rumor
that the New York Central
Railroad Company had purchased the
control of the N. Y. P. & o.,
and the New York, Lake Erie and Western
system reached the offices of the
Erie road officials this morning President
King said:-"I heard the rumor and can
only say that so far as know, no such deal
has been effected. Still I hear that the
Central people have got lots of money and
are buying up lots of things. They may
have bought the road, but if they did
am ignorant of it. What has been
done with the N. Y. P. & o. 1 don't
know. We leased that road simplyn

WILLIS INSTRUCTIONS.
The important part of the document sub
mtted in writing in connection with the
Presidents Message and which has not yet
been read to, the Senate, contains the
instructions issued to Minister
Willis under date of December s.
Two points having special
bearing upon the situation In Hawaii are set
forth Minister Willis is instructed to say
say to the Queen that the conditions
relative to Amnesty must be acquiesced
in by her or he will do nothing. If
the Queen should ask what the United
States will do in the way of restoring her
70 power and maintaining her upon
her throne the Minister is directed to
reply that the President will not authorize
the use of the United States troops
either to restore her or maintain her
upon her throne. Minister Willis was told
to inform the Queen that the use Of troops
could only be authorized by act of Congress
Minister Willis is then directed to
tell the Provisional Government, should
they ask the same question, that the
President will do all that he can
under executive authority to restore the
Queen. The distinction noted between these
two answers to the same question is an
absence of the very important matter of de-
tail as to what the President can do and will
do under the term Executive authority

The New York Times calls atteu-
ton to the starting of new cotton
mills in North Carolina and other
Southern States. It says:
GA factory in which 100000 has
been invested is just completed at
Lexington, N. c., and we are told
that the operatives will be drawn
mostly from the native population of
the surrounding country, and the
output will consist entirely of ging-
hams. This industrial move in the
South is a wholesome sign, and is q
reminder of the state of cotton man.
ufacturing in New England forty
years ago, when factory town was
thriving American community"
The Times thinks that the making
of the cheaper cotton fabrics should
be a fourishing industry in the
Southern States, and should give
employment and profit to the people
of that section, who have heretofore
devoted themselves to the narrow
line of agricultural production. It
admits that with the raw material at
our doors and a good home market
it is folly for us to transport our
cotton long diatance to The New
England mills, and then transport
the manufactured product back
again.
Our contemporary believes that
the development of this industry in
the South will work no injury to
Northern interests. The demand for
cotton goods increases with the
growth of population, and the older
establishments of the North will have
enough to do if they confne them
selves to the finer grades of goods
and compete with the factories oil
Great Britain.
IL is now conceded by the press
and the mill men of the North that
cotton manufacturing will speedily
become the leading and most profta-

For the Good of the Order.

I would respectfully suggest to
Che Alliance men of Louisiana that
at their regular meetings of the
sub-unions. After your routine of
regular business is disposed of, and
before adjournment, throw open your
doors, and extend cordial invitation
to the public to participate in the
debate that should follow, upon some
interesting and instructive subject.
The subject for discussion should
always be selected by committee
appointed by the President at the
previous meeting and publicly an
nounced to the audience in order
that they have sufficient time to
prepare for the conflict. A basket
lunch is always acceptable on such
occasions, as the inner man requires
attention as well as feeding the brain
with practical suggestions.
Proceedings of this characte,
would be pleasant and agreeable and
aid greatly in removing that unwar
ranted prejudice that the enemies o.
our order hold against US an "oath
bound organization" Again, it woule
insure a large attendance both O.
members and friends, and our meet
ing would be highly entertaining ani
improving, besides our membership
largely augmented.
Newspapers friendly to the farm
ers' cause will please copy.

A man who lives for himself alone,
and does not recognize any response
bility for the moral condition of his
fellow man, fails to enjoy the happi-
ness in this life that is within his
reach. In helping others, which he
can do through church organizations
and in other ways, he not only rec
ognixes new possibilities in his own
nature for happiness, but he opens
the way to others to practice happi-
ness. The man who is Indifferent to
the Christian religion or is an unbe-
iiever in it fails to get out of this life
that which is best in it.
