The Union Gpringneld, Mass. } hs
more than once remarked that the man.
ufacturers and people Of New England
can have no objection to the FREQ impor-
tation Of bituminous coal. II they do not
have to pay too much for it. II says
further that free coal would be of great
advantage to rs and 30 would free raw
materials of other KINDS, provided our
manufactured products are adequately
protected. But of what benefit will
free coal or free wool be to us II We
cannot sell our manufactured products
at profit2 And If the duties on man.
ufactured goods are reduced below tho
point which protects the superior
wages paid in our mills, foreign goods
will fill our markets, and our manu-
facturers can compete only by severe
reduction of wages. When wages are
reduced, the purchasing power Of the
public is reduced, and the rs cents per
ton saved on bituminous coal will not
60 far to compensate for the loss. 1t is
quite probable that under the new tariff
foreign goods will be cheaper and
American goods will have to follow
suit if they are made at all. This will
benefit people who have fixed incomes,
wealthy pople who never have to wor-
~ about tomorrow's supplies, but how
will it benefit wage earners whose
wages are reducedP 1t makes little diff
ference how cheap thing is if you have
no money for its purchase. Free coal for
New England is not boon when 1t is
coupled with such reductions of duties
on our manufactures that our Tabor
must be poorly compensated or entirely
unemployed.

lecture where these rs young men might
eventually resort IL the Y. M. G. A. rooms
were not available to them.
Three hundred fourteen attended 25 ses-
sions of the Bible class, held at the Asso-
citation rooms by General Secretary Camp
bell, or an average Of about thirteen at each
session. The aggregate attendance at the
50 mems gospel meetings held Sunday
afternoons at the rooms was 3,175 or an
average Of "a at each meeting. To illustrate
the aggressive nature of the Y. M. G. A.
work. 1t may be stated that an invitation
committee consisting of number of young
men usually goes out on the streets and
gives personal invitation to attend the meet
ings to all they can find. The conversion OF
% young men during the past year can be
attributed directly to the Y. M. c. A. OF
this number six have already joined the
church. Whether this number of young
men would have been led into Christian
life without the Y. M. @. A. is certainly
questionable.
To show the character Of the Y. M. c. A.
membership the following statistics are
given. They are not from last year but
will not vary much from present conditions,
80 per cent are employed In factories, IL
per cent are employed as statesmen, Is per

on ployed as students. per cent ara en-
ployed by X. r. companies. 10 are unclass-
i6ed. The Y. n. c. A. Is In no sense
composed of select few. All are welcome,
al equal, all brothers.
Notwithstanding its rank as ffth in the
state In membership, the officers and friends
of the association are not satisfied. They
are looking toward membership Of 700 to
800, which ought to be possible with the
number of young men available in this city.
Before this membership could be sccomo-
dated however. new Y. M. g. A. home
would be necessity. The idea OF such a
building is coming gradually to be some
thing more than dream. for at the last
anniversary exercises the Y. M. @. A.
Building Committee appeared before the
public with report showing actual cash On
hand of over $500. as a nucleus of build
ing fund.-
The Y. M. G. A. IS one of Ow0ss0's most
valuable institutions and goes a long way
toward meeting the responsibility she bears
to her young men.

Factories and Farmers.

Wherever southern manufactures
have been started and sustained, south
ern farmers have changed their modes
of farming. The increased comforts
around them indicate increased profits,
and it is an undoubted fact that their
lands have increased in value not less
than 20 per cent. Personally I can tes-
dfy, if need be on oath, that having an
iron furnace to the north and to the
south of my farm has increased its mar
ket value so per cent, and that the
profits at this increased value are larger
than before the furnaces were built.
The furnaces have not interfered with
my labor, but by importing labor have
given me more labor. am glad to say.
that the market price of labor has been
increased, but with greater profit to
me.-Hugh McElderry.
