why the West Grows.

The home market for American farm
ers exists wherever there is factory or
an employment which depends in any
way upon manufacturing. The marvel
Of American industry has been the di.
versifcation of industry generally dur
ing the last third of century, particu-
larly toward and in the west. Take, for
example, the prodigious manufacturing
industries of Illinois, not to speak Of
Indiana and Ohio Manufacturing in
dustry has likewise, although a little
later, been developed in the southern
states.
Even west of the Mississippi river
vast manufacturing interests have been
developed with unprecedented rapidity,
down to the time when the Democratic
party two years ago took hold of the
government under pledge to revolutions

Has the Boom Burst?

What is the matter with the boom?
We quote from Dun's, as follows:
Cooke was suddenly raised to 81. 40,
but has recently sold at $1.10. Wheat
jumped over 20 cents, to "a, but is now
slow of sale at about 60. Wool was late
in rising, but has lost about an eighth
of cent in average price within the
past fortnight. " Does this mean a
check to the free trade prosperity that
we have been reading about? Farmers
and miners are interested. Again we
quote:
"In the boot and shoe industry many
shops are discharging hands, and in
wooden manufacture few works are
closing for want of orders. Shipments
of boots and shoes now fall below last
years or those of 1892, and except in
split shoes there are but few orders" "
Wage earners are interested in this
story and are awaiting explanations
Stand up, free trade editors. Who will
be the first ia answer?

PRICES OF WOOL AND CLOTH
ING.

The Textile Manufacturers Journal
says free wool has existed for four
teen months, and sufficient time has
elapsed to fully test it's value and its
relation to the price of clothing.
What is the result? The cry of free
wool and cheaper clothing has
proven an ignis fatuus," and the
workman who was to buy his cloth
ing at half the old prices has found
to his sorrow that the false light
lured him on under false promises
he has in fact found much lower
wages and the cost of clothing but
slightly reduced A careful canvass
among leading. retail clothiers
showed that clothing was not ten
per cent. lower than under a pro-
tective tariff. This slight reduction
followsa severe business depression,
the resultant competition necessarily
forcing prices down, so that it is not
unfair to assume that the reduction
of ten per cent, is due as much, if
not more, to this depression than to
free wool. No wonder when it is
considered what small item wool
is in the total cost of suit of clothes.
The free traders said, I'VE will ban
ish shoddy and give the workman
an all-wool suit at lowprice. " What
is the fact. A much larger use of
shoddy then ever, greater deception
in clothing, and less value for the
money.

Why Mutton Is Cheap.

American sheep are still going to
market in vast numbers August, 1894,
was known as virtually a panic month,
SO great was the rush Of sheep into Chi
cago market yet the report for August,
1895, shows an increase of 40, 900 head
over that Of the corresponding month
the preceding year, while an excess of
5000 for the first week in September
indicates that the haste to sell is still
an uppermost feature. Under these CON
ditions many western sheep men have
sold out almost every /, or year old
sheep in their fiocks, so that now their
stock is at the point of certain deterio.

Pottery From the Orient.

We feel sore that our artists and arti-
sans must be brought into such close
competition with the wretchedly paid
pottery labor Of England and the conti-
nent Of Europe, but we see still worse
things in the distance. China and Ja-
pan, with pottery employees who can
work for from to IA cents day and
live on half that amount, are preparing
to furnish America with large lines Of
staple goods and are being stimulated
to do SO by American importers, who
have, it is reported on good authority,
sent out full lines of samples of toilet
and table wares and stand ready 10 or
ganize large concerns in those countries
and utilize the cheap labor that there
abounds. d. II. HAYNES 81 Son.

Nor a moment in going or coming delayed
His mother, quite pleased by his promptness

Gave Johnnie n kiss and nice dainty meal.

As she knew from experience ought to be
done.

She tripped, and the bottle went smash on the

Lieutenant Governor Saxton made
some good points in reply to an inquiry
from the New York World. He said
I'VE all know that owing to the re-
suit Of last falls election there can be
no further movement in the direction
of FREQ trade for some time to come.
The indications are that we have passed
the lowest point and have made little
upward progress. But such recovery as
We have made has been in spite of the
Wilson bill and not because Of it. The
newspapers report increase Of wages in
some localities. This does no kseem to
be very general, and where wages have
been advanced they have not yet as a
rule touched the point where they stood
at the beginning of 1898. The outlook
in some places may be unusually prom
Using, but that is not true, so far as /
can judge, in central and western New
York "
The lieutenant governor is quite cor
rect when he says that "sueh recovery
