THE Rock County NeaoS says that
the imports of wool under the McKin
ley law have fallen off 20,679, 207
pounds in nine months, and processes
to believe that this has lowered the
quality or raised the price of the
goods. Yet it can bring nothing to
prove that such is the case. 1t would
have people believe that the amount
of wool used 10 the WOODEN manufac-
torres was less by the above amount
than it would have been had the Nc
Kinley law not been in force. 1t pays
no attention to the fact that the pro-
duction of wool has increased in this
country, and that our farmers have
increased their sales in accordance as
| the Importation of foreign wool fell
off. AS to the price and quality, The
NeaoS writer knows, or ought to, that
at no previous time could better
quality of woolens Of any description
be purchased at lower price thar
now. The only effect of free WOO
will be to break down the American
industry of sheep raising and WOO
growing, but it will furnish neithel
better nor cheaper manufactures.

SECRETARY CARLISLE estimates
that the deficiency in the public rev.
enues will reach $4,000, 900. This is
regarded by those who are in any way
acquainted with public affairs as q
very moderate estimate. and if the
Wilson bill passes in anything like it's
present form, it is likely to be greatly
increased. AS a result of this de-
ficiency Mr.. Carlisle presents two
alternatives, either that he must be
given authority to issue bonds to a
sufficient extent to secure gold to meet
the current obligations of the govern
ment, and preserve the gold reserve
intact, or else authority to issue short
term treasury bills to run from one to
five years at low rate of interest.
His opinion is that bonds issued in
small denominations would be taken
here al home, and in view of the fact
that money is steadily accommodating in
the financial centers and lying Idle be-
cause of no call for investments, he is
probably right. A large portion Of
his report is given up to discussion
against protective tariff, in which
he threshes over the old straw and at
tempts to justify the ad valorem Sys-
tenn of duties with all it's attendant
chances for fraud over the specific sys-
tenn which is now in force.

The scheme is to try and throw the
whole blame of the matter upon the
Harrison administration, but it is not
working successfully. Mr.. Cleveland
may be able to browbeat .some Of his
party, but the people at large prefer
to draw their own conclusions in the
matter, and they are not along the
line marked out by Mr.. Gresham.

The Rites Of Holy week in the
Catholic Churches.

Holy Week In the Catholic Church is
In many respects the most important Of
the whole year With the ceremonies
Palm Sunday, which is the beginning.
the liturgy Is varied and rich In symbolic
meaning. Changes in the customary
rights appear even on Monday and Tues
day, when there are omissions In the
morning mass The stranger on first
entering q Catholic church at this time
Is struck by the shroUding of the cruel
fxes and pictures In purple.
Especially impressive are the signs OF
mourning on Wednesday evening, the
first OF the Tenebrae The Office is called
Tenebrae Tor Darkness because II pic
lures by the gradual darkening OF the
church the more than natural darkness
that overshadowed the world at the
death of Jesus Christ On Wednesday
evening Is sung the Tenebrae of Thurs
day In preparation for the macs and Of
nee OF Thursday; on Thursday evening
Is sung by anticipation the office of Good
Friday; on Friday evening is sung the
preparation for the mass OF Easter Eve.
In early times the offices were begun at
midnight. The Tenebrae service for
Maunday Thursday in the Psalms aud
Lessons brings before the people the pas.
sion Of our Saviour, and in an especial
way the treachery of Judas.
The ceremonies Of this service are rich
in meaning. At the end Of each Psalm
one OF the candles In the triangular can
dlestick 10 extinguished until, as the Of
flee proceeds, only one is left alight. BY
this is shown forth how one Of the disci-
Piles forsook their Master and skunk
away. The one candle that remains
alight represents Jesus Christ forsaken
and left to tread the winepress alone
During the Canticle of ZachRrey the six
candles are put out and the lights In the
church are gradually lowered TO symbol
ize the MONDAY darkness that covered
the earth at the death of its Creator
At the end OF the Benedictus, the sim
gle candle that still burns 10 hidden be-
hind the alter, while the "Miserere" is
sung amid the gloom. A collect is then
said in low voice by the senior priest
present. and a confused noise is made to
express the commissions OF nature when
the earth quaked, and the rocks were
split, and the graves gave up their dead.
The candle lie thsn brought from behind
the altar, still alight, to represent that
after His death and burial the Lord
came forth immortal from the tomb The
