TnE GREAT ONO srRADDLE

Our esteemed. but rather one-ideaed,
contemporary on Fourteenth St, who
can see nothing but Mckinley on the
national political horizon, grows ex-
ceeding wroth over the Registers sug-
gestion that the currency plank Of the
Ohio Republican platform upon which
Mckinley will stand in the ST. Louis
convention is a most ignominous strad-
die of the silver question, and pitt
ful attempt to hoodwink both sides TO
that controversy. Our neighbor denies
that it is a straddle. or at least declares
that it is as good as the currency plank
of The Minneapolis platform of the Ma
tional Republican party. That might
be and it could still be a mighty strad-
die. vet We believe that for an all
around bid for the support of both sides
Of the currency question while giving
no definite pledge to either, the Ohio
Mckinley platform has yet TO see its
equal Il has even strained the stom-
ach Of such staunch party papers as
the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette,
whose comment on it we have already
published In fact, only such an os-
trich-like political stomach as that Of
our nelghbor. who would swallow and
digest without question anything bear
ing the Mckinley label could stand
such a contemplate, pitiful, cowardly
dodge of the one great national issue
now before he American people.
The Cincinnati COmmercial-Gazere
says. with biting sarcasm: "Oh. yes: We
can use every word of the plank. accept
them heartily. and adopt them as a dec
larauon for sound money. The trouble
is that men who entertain exactly the
opposite views from lose we have can,
or will. do the same thing" And the
same journal, the leading Republican
paper Of Ohio. adds: The free silver
men have forced the silver issue;
and the Republicans of Ohio ought to
have met it squarely-as squarely as
Abraham Lincoln met the issue Of slav-
cry. And they didn't do it. They
adopted words which are confessedly
ambiguous; adopted them because they
were ambiguous
Isn't this good enough Republican
authority on the cowardliness Of Nc
Kinley's attitude on the currency ques-
ton? The McKinleyites must be firm
indeed in the belief that anybody" can
be elected this year on the Republican
ticket. if they are willing to trust their
candidate on such a rotten plank on
the principal issue before the nation.
But what a remarkable and abiding
faith in the density and ignorance of
the American voter it argues on the
part of the Mckinley boomersi

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE.
Observation-Disclosures

New York. March 13.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade, which is
sues tomorrow, will say:
Waiting is still the rule. Large
hope but little actual business explains
the strength of some markets and the
weakness of others. The feeling that
the spring of 1896 ought to-bring larger
business will not suffice to meet eX-
penses all the season if the larger bus
mess does not come. 1t is especially
noteworthy that prces of materials
have varied quite different ~ from
prices of manufactured products,
although in most cases the ad-
vance last fall was commenced by eX-
traordinary uplifting of prices for ma
terials.
Wool is but 5.9 per cent higher than
a year ago. but wooden goods are on the
whole about 4 per cent. lower.
Pig iron is only II per cent. higher
than year ago, while finished products
of iron and steel average 40 per cent.
higher
There is reason to believe that actual
consumption is still at least 10 per cent.
smaller than the production of pig
and the price of Bessemer at Pittsburg
has agan declined slightly to $1125,
with exceptional sales even below that
figure. Prices of finished products are
not quotably lower, although all mar
kets are weak tone
Failures for the week have been
$2911,775, against $1,6S9,O52 last year,
and S3.276.292 in 1894
Failures for the week have been
500 in the United States. against 266
last year. and 90 in Canada, against 81
last year.

ANOTHER CALAMITY HOWLER
sOUELCHED.

The American Wool and Cotton Re
porter is Justly indignant at what it
calls "the wholesale manufacture Of
gloom and depression for partisan polit-
ical purposes. which from now on may
be expected to increase in volume as
the presidential election approaches.
The Reporter calls attention to the
latest batch Of calamity lies manufact-
ured by that most mendaciOus Repubi-
can organ. the New York Eress.
published under glazing head lines.
under the captions BUSY Looms ST.
lent" and How the Wooden Mills
Have Been Hit" which the Wool and
Cotton Reporter. the leading authority
I'm the country on the wool and wooden
trade. chaacterizes as "a lot of gross
misstatements and Interpretations %
In full face type. to substantiate its
statements that the Wilson tariff has
ruined the wooden manufactures of the
country. and the nOn-passage of the
Dingley relief bill has banished an hope
OF their being able 70 longer operate
their machinery. the Press prints a list
OF 80 New England wooden and wOrsted
mills shut down OF running on short
time. and the number Of employees i'm
each. and in a table of recapitulations
attempts to estimate the loss in wages.
loss to the country in raw material
etc. etc. Subjoined is a most gloomy
picture Of the alarming plight at
Rockville. Conn. "the scene of the most
staggering blow"
ITO any one az an familiar with the
exact situation Of wooden mauufactur-
ing. SAYS the Wool and Cotton Re
porter. the article i'm the Press would
seem 20 condemn itself upon its face. "
Particularizing. the Reporter continues:
I'm the article in question the state
ment is made that the fine mems wear
worsted mills 40 Rockville. the Rock.
American. Hockanum. New England
and Springville. are running on one
eighth time This statement is utterly
false. as any one would find who de-
sired TO obtain the true facts. The
New York representatives of the last
three mills named characterize the
article as all rot and untruthful. and
the representative Of the Rock Manu-
featuring Co. has denounced il in sim
liar terms Both parties assert that
eighth time. they are running on two
thirds time. 40 hours. which was the
unanimous agreement entered into on
the Path ult They further assert that
the orders which they have received
to date for worsteds are about equal
to those of the previous fan season.
and that unless present conditions
change materially. there is every. rea-
son for believing that they will be able
70 continue running on their present
schedule throughout the entire year
with strong probabilities Of a return.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1896-03-14

before many months, to full time The
product Of these mills is the very high
est grade of strictly pure worsted fab
RIGS. whose reputation is national and
standard. Pursuing further the mis-
statements of the Press we have only
to state that the Harris Wooden Co.,
Woonsocket, R. l., which is included
among the mills 'shut down" retired
from business at the close of 1895, as
did the Saxton WOrsted Company,
which is also included among the
mills shut down" and the F. A.
Lapham mill, at Mnlbury, Mass. a.,
which is enumerated twice for effect.
The statement made regarding the
Perseverance Worsted Co, at Woon-
socket. r. l.. is also incorrect as is
also that of other mills in the list,
while the scene of restitution and want
depicted at Rockville is almost wholly
untrue. This town is one of the most
prosperous and thrifty manufacturing
towns in New England. where a large
number of the operatives own their
own homes. where they have lived in
happiness and prosperity for years"
This is a sample of the stream of
bare-faced falsehoods regarding the op-
Grafton of the wool and wooden sched-
ules of the Wilson bin that is constant
ly pouring from the Mckinley organs.
1t is seldom possible to so thoroughly
refute them as the Wool and Cotton
Reporter has done in this instance, nor
is il necessary. for these tariff lies usu-
ally bear the old familiar earmarks. If
the Reporter proposes to continue in
the good work of tracking down these
falsehoods it viii soon find it necessary
to double its Office force.

A MOVE AGAINST THE TRUST.

Governor Bushnell Orders Proceedings to
Dust the Union Sewer Pipe Company.
Special to the Register.
Columbus, Ohio, March 13.-Gover-
nor Bushnell this evening ordered At
torney General Monnett to bring a quo
warrante suit in the name of the State
to Gust the Union Sewer Pipe Company,
of Akron, on the ground that it is a
combination of the chief manufactur-
ing concerns of that character in the
State with view to controlling the
price of sewer pipe; in fact, trust.
The action is based on the ground that
such a combination is against public
policy. The petition was filed this
evening in the Supreme Court. There
are nine companies in the trust with
an annual output of over one and a
quarter million dollars.
