THE WOOL INDUSTRY.


The protectionists prophesied that
free wool would bring ruin to Ameri-
can sheep owners. and that the reduc-
ton OF duties on wooden goods would
wreck one of the greatest of our indus
tries. This conviction was so firmly
fixed in the minds Of the calamity
prophets that they made no allowance
for a possible failure of their predic-
ton Consequently the increase in the
price of wool since the removal OF the
duty and the remarka Die activity in
the manufacture Of woolen goods have
fairly bewildered them In their con-
fusion they have isreyaried facts.
and have frantically persisted that the
reported activity in the wooden indus
try does not exist. But now there
comes an authoritative statement Of
the situation the truth of which the
dou bters cannot deny.
Somebody recently asked the editor
OF the American Wool and Cotton Re-
porter 10 estimate the quantity of
wooden machinery in operation now.
and also at the most favorable time
hitherto. In reply TO this inquirer
the editor of the Reporter impaired
the following information:
1T is estimated that in May. 1892.
there were in operation ..7si sets of
cards. wooden and worsted: 1900
WOODEN and worsted looms. and 1861
machines. About June /,
1896, there were in operation s.456 sets
Of cards, wooden and worsted; 77,i0O
looms on wooden and worstcd goods,
and 54.a50 knitting machines. this
probably must be increased at date in
every particular, as there is most i'm
posing list of enlargements of wooden
mills and installations of new ma
chinery since January /. 1925. exclu-
sive OF thir;y-eight brand new enter
prises (woolen mills and a large num-
Der of new knitting plants"
The significance of these figures is
not to be mistaken by any reader Of
Add to this proof of ac-
tivity the general increase in wages
during the past two months, and il
will be seen how utterly the dismal
predictions of the protectionists have
failed OF realization. Philadelphia

Checked 1t would be impossible to re-

DO these organs desire to check the

partisan ends thereby may be served?
We believe that this is the motive of
some Of the advocates OF this policy of
futile but disturbing revision. The re-
turn of prosperity. the great activity
OF producing plants. the increase of
wages affecting three-quarters of
million workmen. have deprived them
OF their specious tariff arguments and
promise to make their tariff issue
worthless rs a political asset But IL
this forward movement in business and
manufactures could be checked by
fresh tariff agitation. that issue might
be revived for use in the campaign next
year. There is too much prosperity
now for the republican party. Would
these Mckinley organs like to see this
prosperity displaced by adversely and
depression? This great upward move
ment not only lays their tariff issue on
the shelf. but il also convicts them of
ignorance or Misrepresentation. I'm
less depression and hard times shall
come again. the people will regard
them as false prophets. deceptive ad-
visers and misleading guides.
