The tariff is not going to hurt legiti-

states ia the water power of Huntsville,
Atlanta, and other towns situated right
in the heart of the great southern cotton
belt, thus avoiding the cost of freight on
cotton to the northern looms. There is
where the danger lies. In the next forty
years the cheap living OF the southern
states will beguile many an industrious
Yankee away from his early surround-

Artistic Cotton Gowns for Ladies.

The materials for these gowns are the staple
Scotch ginghams, light weight Zephyrs,
heavier Chambray and the Madras cOttOns
The new patterns show small figures corded
hines, stripes and small dots. Some of the
giDghamS are more elaborate, and have inter
woven white designs to initiate tambour EN-
brodery, raised silk or linen dots or stripes
and some crepe like surface Coors are
light and dainty. Their style of making is
similar to that of the cloth dresses, and very
frequently the elaborate ginghams are shown
with tie dark color used as trimming. Dimity
muslin, too is in vogue this year, in striped
and fancy patterns. The MCDOWELL FASHION
JOURNALS from which these fashion items are
taken, contain great variety of models for
the use of these materials. Their coupon pat

many new designs which are unique in point
of artistic taste, style and practicability. Of

The Coal Strikers.

AS the New York Journal of Com
merce says, the interdependence of
all sorts of business interests is never
more clearly shown than when, as in
the case of the present coal strike, the
supply of commodity of general use
is interfered with. Transportation,
manufacturing and commercial inter
ests all over the country feel the effects
Of sudden interruption of the preduc-
ton of the bituminous coal fields, and
in fortnight the actual or threatened
commercial consequences are as serious
as have ever arisen from labor troubles
in this country.
Following recent precedent in the
English coal trade the striking miners
presumably count upon the widespread
influences of the strike not only to at
tract general attention but to insure
public recognition of the necessity for
prompt settlement of the trouble by
concession to their claims.
Experience, however, does not justify
such an expectation. Public sympathy
has proved very tickle ally of strikers.
Over and over again the complaint has
been heard that where strikes have
been begun in the belief that the popu-
lar feeling was sympathetic, there has
been reversal of sentiment the mo-
ment that public interests were affect
ed. People who foster and encourage
the spirit that leads to the strike turn
upon the striker as soon as their inter
ests are affected, and are among the
first to call for strong measures of re-
preston Judging from experience the
coal strike is likely to lose public sup
port in proportion as it interferes with
public convenience. -....-.
The fact that the price of coal, de-
livered alongside of vessels in New
York harbor, has been doubled in a
fortnight, and that the effect is felt by
transportation and manufacturing
interests from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, and from the Canadian border
to the Gulf of Mexico, measures the
success of the strike, but it also meas
ures the cause for public dissatisfaction
with such widespread injury to inter-
ests not in any way responsible for any
grievance on the part of the miners,
and it also measures the premium put
upon the development of new sources
of supply of soft coal for our markets,
both during the continuance of the
strike and after it has ended

There are so many people in this
world who look at but one side of any
question; and particularly are there so
many people who never consider the
purchasing power of money. We do
not believe it would be wide of the
mark to say that a majority of those
who toll for bread would prefer to get,
say, SO per day for their labor under
conditions requiring the expenditure
of $3.50 per day to live, than to receive
81. so for their service under conditions
demanding an outlay of only 81 to live.
In the first case the man would run in
to debt, while in the second case he
could save money; but the vicious
teachings of miserable demagogues
have brought thousands of laborers tc
state of mind which makes them in
capable OF logical or common sense
view of the question. = LynchbWrs
