Why The Country Waits ImpatientIy.

While the Popocrats are protesting
against the Dingley bill, and all that
sort of thing, this country, under the
iniouitous tariff they prescribed, is be-
ing flooded with imported goods and
products. There were imported into
this country last March more than
three times as many pounds of foreign
wool as was imported during March Of
the previous year, and about fifteen
times as much as came in the last
March the Mckinley bill remained in
force. While the free-traders are la
menting over the assumption that
clothes won't be as cheap under the
Dingley bill as now, when every dealer
that can get hold of a bankrupt stock
is using it to beat out the life of his
competitor, and almost every wooden
manufacturer that succeeds in running
his mills is obliged to use more shoddy
in order to compete with pauper labor,
vi lille all this is going on there We're
five and half million pounds of rags.
rolls and other forms of shoddy inn
ported last March, whereas, under the
Mckinley bin in a similar month, there
were only about 1900 pounds. No Won
d r all business but that of the import
evs and the foreign producers and man
ufacturers is at a standstill, awaiting
tariff action by the Senate. We hope
10 considerable number of the members
of that distinguished body will cause
9Deculations in sugar stock, and that
rome Will be so unpatriotic as to delay
