MILAN'S GREAT SHOW
IT IS IN EVERY WAY WORTHY OF
.. THAT BEAUTIFUL CITY.

A Castle Dating From the Fifteenth Centu-
ry Is Used as One of the Most Important
Buildings -Hasty Review of Some of the
Most Notable Features.
According to all accounts, the exposi-
hon now going on at Milan is one of
the most successful Of the year, judged
both from the quality Of the show itself
and the attendance Of visitors.
The exposition grounds are to the
north Of the city, centering in the his
toric old castle of the Sforza- -Visconti,
structure that has had prominent place
in Milanese records ever since the if
teenth century. The scheme for the
present exposition was broached in the
public journals as early as March, 1893,
and although last year was one Of de-
preston in Italy and indeed in all Eu-
rope as we'll as in America, the Milan
ese took hold of the matter at once and
with enthusiasm, and by the beginning
Of 1894 it was we'll understood by the
people of the entire country that Milan
was not only in earnest, but quite COM
petent to organize and carry through to
successful termination fair that
would combine transient interest with
permanent benefit both to Milan and
indirectly to her sister cities.
Not only is the exposition fortunate
in being allowed the use of the castle
and it's grounds, but the president Of the
executive committee, who has had
charge directly of the work Of construc-
tion and arrangement, is the Prince Gil

CLEVELAND ON wool.

The President Dis1ikes WOO1groweTD Be-
cause There Is No Trust.
President Cleveland has a woolly rec
ord He expressed himself very plain
", telling the people all about the farm
ers and their wool in his third annual
message to congress, Dec. 6, 1887. He
did not commit himself so far as to say
that he knew, but he thought lit may
be fairly assumed that a large proper
tion of the sheep owned by the farmers
throughout the country are found in
small t1ocks numbering from 25 to So"
Upon this assumption he argued that
1.-THE benefit of the present tariff on
wool is illusory'' and proceeded to show
''burden upon the poor, the employed
and unemployed, the sick and we'll and
the young and old" He further proved
to his own complete satisfaction that it
was "a tax which, with relentless
grasp, is fastened upon the clothing of
every man, woman and child in the
land.'' He did not state upon which
PoAo VI cAA0 O1OOu1ASo ~ w tlo 4uaVcuCu VI
whether fastened with safety pin as
we'll with "a relentless grasp This
was an oversight.
Senator Jones of Nevada, in his great
tariff speech Of 1892, took up Mr. Cleve-
lands sheepishness, and estimating 65
per cent as being "a large proportion
showed that we had in 1887 as many as
$50, $50 separate farmers who owned
flocks Of IS sheep each and that there
we're 4, 900, 900 persons directly and pe-
cuniarily interested in the wool tariff.
AS President Cleveland desired free
trade in wool because "a large proper
tion of the sheep owned by the farmers
throughout the country are found in
small focks numbering from IS to So"
the inference is that free wool would
never have been thought of by him or
his party if the docks had been large
ones, concentrated among few owners,
or, in fact, if there had been sheep
trust, raw wool trust or both. Such a
trust could have dictated it's own terms,
but the unfortunate $50, 960 separate
farmers must be made to suffer. Presi-
dent Cleveland and his party are mo-
nopolists from the word 60

Farmers and Wool.

If the woolgrowers Of the United
States hope to secure any tariff legisla-
tion by which wool is to be protected, it
is advised that they at once organize a
trust. They then may hope to succeed.
The Sugar trust, controlled by few
persons, in which the total number en-
gagged is 1929, are able to secure rates
which take from the people $43, 900, :
900 annually. Why do not the WOOL
growers try their hand, as it appears
from the record now being made in con-
gress that the trusts and combines are
always able to have the duty increased,
while the free list seems to be the place
where individual enterprise alone is
sent.
