Tho pr.cp OF Wool.

Far thu first time since the election Of
1892 there has been IN advance in tho
price of wool. This is ascribed by our
local wool dealers to two causes. Ono
cause is that there is growing belief
that Congress will not succeed in pass
ing n tariff bill. The other cause as
signed Is that there is an increased de-
mand throughout the country Tor
clothing, the supply having been large
" decreased during the period OF do
pression, aud tho manufacturers, who,
by reason Of tho fact that the tariff bill
has not yet passed, still retain their
market, must have wool with which to
I'll present orders.
Those two causes for the slight ad'
vance arc temporary and natural. The
indications arc that il a tariff bill Is
PASSED it will DO one providing for free
wool. In all the compromise PROPOSE
tons there has been mono looking to
n caro- for the 100000 wool growers in
tho country. Tho American farmer will
have 10 submit to tho disadvantage oil
raising wool in our climate on even
terms with his foreign rival, who does
not havo tho same difficulties to contend
with. Then will come tho inevitable
fall Of prices, oven perhaps below the
level that has been reached by the
threat of free wool, and, finding the
business Improbable. the farmer will
DO obliged to go cut OF the wool grow
ing industry. ,
or the inevitable effect OF free wool
tho american Economist utters cold fact
when it says: "our seventh largest Ng'
riculturai industry, producing annually
sj0,OOO,OOO worth Of wool, and repro
senting IN investment of 100000, OOO
in sheep, will DO destroyed by trec trade.
Sheep will be fattencd and will then be
sont 10 market rs TODD, and flOclts will
disappear forever. Our food supply
will in time thus DO decreased and our
manufacturers eventually will be driven
to buv their wool in London in Aus
tralia. Cola will thus DO sent out OF
the country again, increasing the harm
full Influences that must follow with tho
balance Of trade permanently against
us. Tho wool growers would be forced
into some other industry"
Tho only hope Tor the American wool
grower lies in the faint possibility that
the incompetent Democratic statesmen
at Washington will be unable to agree
on a tariff bill, and that tho Mckinley
law will stand. In this event tho cleo
ton Of Republican Congress in No
vomber would insure tho continuance
Of the American policy of protection
and revival OF this and other throat,
ened industries, Tor torn Of years, at
least.

rest.
A lengthy interview with the distin-
guished veteran Republican statesman,
Ex-senator George +. Edmunds, pub.
lished few days ago, is interesting ut
this timo because it deals with vital
questions OF tho hour. tho tariff situa.
ton at Washington, the struggle be.
tween capital aud labor, and the immi.
grafton question. With Mr.. Edmunds'
retirement from public lilo he did not
lOso interest in public affairs, and his
views on matters at issue show that he
has kept in close toucn with events and
has not relaxed his faith in tho princi.
pics OF RcpubiCauism. and he looks to
his party to stand firmly by them.
The most interesting portion Of tho
interview referred to is Mr.. Edmunds'
discussion OF tho labor crisis. lilo
watched with 8omO concern tho great
RtriIie which recently ended, and his
viows OF the situation arc tho
viows OF n statesman who has carefully

According to our Nashville despatch,

BY Democratic fooling with tariff revi'
sion and the income tax imposition in
Washington will not show itself in
every election to be held this year.
That has been tho inyariabIe result In

no indication that the trend OF popular
feeling will change in tho near future.

Athens, Ga, March 2.-Gen. Clement
Evans and Col. w. Y. Atkinson arrived
here via tho Georgia, Carolina and North
ern road tonight at o'clock. Both gen
tlemen were met at the depot by large
delegations of friends, headed by bands
of music. Gen. Evans was taken to the
residence Of Capt r. r. Hodgson, where
he will be royalty entertained during his
stay in the city. A large number of peo-
pie had congregated at the residence Of
Mr. Ho1gson, and Gen. Evans was re
Ceived with the widest enthusiasm Hun
dreds pressed forward to grasp his hand
This is his old home, and he seemed well
pleased with his reception. He is in
splendid condition and confident of to-
morrow and of final success.
Col Atkinson was driven to the Vic
tori. hotel, where he was called on by "A
number of his friends He was asked for
speech and responded briefly, saying
that it was improper for him to speak ex-
tendedly before the time appointed. The
Joint debate will take place tomorrow at
II O'Clock in the opera house r. l..
Bloomfield has been selected as chairman,
and will introduceO the speakers.
The meeting has been widely
advertised and all the surrounding coun-
ties viii send large delegations, which
will swell the crowd to 5000. The en-
thusiasm is spreading like wild fire, and
each delegation will be headed by brass
band Present indications are that Evans
will carry Clarke, as well as the counties
surrounding. To-mOrrOw's battle may
turn the tide. The friends of both are
confident of victory.
