"Dave" Hill thinks the Monroe doctrine

claim that Du Maurier is a plagiarist,
that the story is an old one in French

had written a book about fairies, in
sects or something of that sort, which he
had named Trilby, and true to his cause
this yorng counsel grasped at the straw
of rumor and remodelled it to suit his
case. We hope it will not be found that
the counsel's claim Is true, not that we
have any idea that it is, because if proven

At first thought it would seem that the
price of cotton cloth is as low as it well
could be but this is not the age to be
lieve in the impossible" A magazine
loom has been invented for which great
results arc claimed. Where a man in
this country is able to operate about six
ordinary looms, a man in England four
and on tho continent two or three it is
said that with tho magazine loom one
man can operate sixteen looms, and that
the cost of cotton cloth will thus be re-
duccd about onc-fourth. If this inven-
ton will do all that is claimed for it the
eject upon the enterprise of establishing
cotton mills in Oriental countries and the
South on account of the chcapncss of labor
cannot but be discouraging. The cost Of
labor will be less of factor in production
Intelligent well pa id labor will be neces-
sary both to mako the looms and to run

A good deal is being said about the
higher wages. They are indeed signs OF
prosperity. They indicate return of the
country's confidence to normal condition.
Attention should be called to this change
and it is not only natural but proper to
exult in this promise of prosperity ap-
preaching that of three years ago, but we
fail to SEQ just how the free trader can find
therein anything to encourage him in
his belief In most instances the return
to the old standard has not yet been at
tanned. The cotton industry has returned
to nearly its former condition but this in
dustry was least harmfuliy affected by
the new tariff of any that was tempered
with. Moreover, it must be borne in
mind that the cut down by Congress was
only fraction of what the Democratic
party demanded. Neither should it be for
gotten that there are many things yet
to be reck oned with. The return to old
wages may or may not be II aintained.
During the dull period there was little in
centive for the foreign manufacturer to
send his goods to this country. But dur
ing the past few months he has increased
his importations very materially. This
is seen from the English report of exports
to this country. The refusal in this coun-
try to report the imports has deprived us
in measure from adequate knowledge of
what We have to compete with Until
this competition is fully realized it will
be impossible to know whether wo are to
be able to return to and maintain our
former standard of wages.
