TIE PROSPECT

No change Of tariff being expected until after
the Presidential election. some OF the probable
CONSEQUENCES call for notice II Is better for
business men and producers that undesirable
changes should not come upon them without
warming II they should start out in another
campaign Of lmpeuous buying, as they did last
summer, the result might be to many unfortu-
nate For there Is some reason now to expect
a year Of uncertainty and generally unsatls-
factory markets A Presidential election OF
itself usually causes duncss and uncertainty in
business but this year 1t is liable 10 be com
pcated with foreign questions OF some deli
cacy Preparations for farm work give promise
" full crops Of cotton and wheat. but 1t will be
about six months before the actual movement
Of crops, If satisfactory In size. will begin to
stimulate business. Meanwhile stocks on hand
will he depressed In price according to the
brightness Of prospects for the coming yield.
and this will tend to hinder Improvement in
prices Of cotton goods and some other products.
There Is reason to expect that the indus
tries will be subjected to foreign competition
as severe as they have met during the last year.
Imports in February have been fully as large as
last year In 1895 woocn goods nvoiced at
$Go.3I0,3ol were imported, and the actual value
the duties not evaded, these imports would dis
place about II third Of the entire product Of
American woollcn mills when well employed,
but in cloths and dress goods the proportion is
much greater, apparently about nnc-sixteentls.
In some important branches more than five
eighths Of the consumption has been captured
by foreign competitors. Meanwhile the wool
growers saw In 1895 no less than 24S,9S9,317
pounds Of foreign wool imported to displnce
their product. This was about half the greatest
quantity ever consumed in American mills in
any year, even when best cmplOye but It
Is unplcasanty obvious that the mills have not
been fully employed during the last twelve
months II they have consumed as much as
400. 100000 pounds, over GO per cent Of 1t from
abroad, the stock Of domestic wool unsOld,
which was largely taken at rising prices when
II was hoped thnt duties would be imposed,
must be unusually heavy Depression In price

American wool. have to settle with their Sen

THE R4INES BILL.

A reader Of The Tribune has sent us letter
of dissent from an article which we recently
published opposing the Raines Excise bill. One
of the points which this correspondent seeks to
establish is that the bill ought not 10 be con-
dcmned merely because ii creates a political
machine or, as he puts the case because 1t re-
ouires officials for its enforcement" He says:
III the law is good. If 1t tends to diminish crime,
poverty and intemperance, II 1t provides rea-
..sonable means for detecting violations Of the
claw. 1t will meet the approval Of law-ablding
..ctizcns." Our correspondent will pardon u.s.
we hope. II we say that he begs several impor-
tant questions In the editorial article to which
no objects we said that some provisions OF the
Raines bill might be good In themselves, but
that nobody could tell how it would operate.
II cannot be safely assumed that if enacted, the
measure would tend TO diminish crime, poverty
and ntemperance. Many intelligent persons
who have given much time, thought ana EFFORT

licve that. on the contrary. 1t would produce
evil results, even II 1t were administered WIN

II would increase the consumption OF ardent
spirits as compared with that Of less injurious

The two objections to the Raines bill when

us valid They are radical. and easily compre-

keep them there indefinitely for the particular
benefit of individuals. ut the cost OF the people
