Beginning January first the wages of

H., one of the largest cotton mills in the
country, will be reduced 10 pei cent This
reduction will affect some 5000 or 5000
hands, and following SO closely on the cut
of the Fall River mills, will have the
effect of Causing other industries of like
nature to fall in line with the movement
of wage reduction. All this is under
Mckinleysm and Dingleyism. and if kept
up will in the end be certain to incur to
the profit of the South, in that it will

We nre told by the friends OF the Ding
ley bill that the measure will succeed
ture than it has done in tie past. We are
at loss to understand how this can be
possible, in that it would be to defeat the
very purpose of its designers. Confessedly
the bill wss framed for the purpose OF
checking the importation of foreign goods
into the United States, and by decreasing
our importations we necessarily decrease
our revenues. Their promises are wrong,
and false conclusion is the logical re-
suit.

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.

The bill introduced in the legislature
on Saturday by Senator McCune making
it a misdemeanor, punishable by fine, for
any youth to letter about any female
school or seminary has already mac de him
the but of much newspaper ridcule.
Just the same n portion of the bill, at
least, is a sensible one. Only the presi.
dent or principal of a female school can
appreciate the amount of unnecessary
worry and annoyance that the thought

tofore, save in Richmond and one or two
pf our larger cities, there has been no re-
course for him, and he has been Obliged
to submit to such annoyances with what
grace he was able.
Should the present bill become law
the principal of any school will have it in
his power to enforce it, and no doubt will
thus be enabled to save himself mech an
noyance. The bill further provides that
''it shall be unlawful to ilterfere with or
in any way disturb the pupils and teach

violation of the law shall be punishable
"by fine of not less than $40 nor more
than $50," with an Imprisonment for
second olfense of not less than ten nor
more than thirty days. 1t is at this point
we think the bill is at fault, although it
leaves the punishment of imprisonment
discretionary. imprisonment would
make the punishment greater than the
offense, and we are pretty sure no such
bill can pass without amendment. Again
we think the bill goes too far in that it
provides that cit shall be unlawful for
any one, except on business, to enter the
grounds of such a school without the per

Connecticut against life insurance. I'm
der his scathing denunciatons nearly all

is that God must be depended upon in all
