Patronize outside papers to the
exclusion of your own, and then de
nounce them for not being as large
and as cheap as city papers.
Attend the service of some minis

has bigger salary, and let the home
preacher live on sawdust and fine
needles. It's fashionable. you know

8eetsa N Aufacturers Oppose High

&esks8 l6nufacturers Oppose High
Duties on Wool.
Some Of the severest criticisms not
onlpf special duties and clauses, but
OF The whole accursed protective sys-
tenn. come from the protected mapufac-
tuners themselves IN their struggle with
opposing interests. Mr.. S. N. d. North,
secretary of the Wooden Manufacturers
association, is now and always has been
% stanch protectionist. As such he be-
this country are legitimate subjects for
plumber and that the manufacturers
are the proper persons to enjoy the pro-
lection plumber.
The free wool experiment which we
have been trying for three years. be-
sides being an object lesson in the way
OF cheap woolens, has taught the
wooden manufacturers that they can
make rs much or more profit with FREQ
wool and moderate protection, which
Permits people Of moderate means to
wear real wooden goods, than with high
duties on both wool and woolens which
restrict the use of voo,ens to peo-
pie In good circumstances. The manu-
facturers therefore display more than
their usua, modesty and patriotism in
the advice which they ore giving to
congress-. Mr.. North Is IN Washington
to voice the manufacturers patriotism.
Here Is part of his advice as taken from
the Washington correspondence of the
Dry Goods Economist:
am free to say the bill ia far from salts
factotS to tho wooden manufacturers. Tho
chief fault 10 to be found with the raw
wool duties, which are SO high that our
manufacturers will find themselves sorciy
embarrassed II Is true the committee has
provided compensatory duties which arc
trooably sufficient to Offset the duties on
row wool, but tho difficulty will be, In my
opinion. that the very considerable IN
crease In price which must be made to
cover the additional cost OF raw material
VIII have the effect of cutting down con-
sumption to ain extent that Will DO disas-
trous to the manufacturers. do not con-
tcnd that the rates on wooden manufac-
tures In tho bill are not sufficient to protect
US against too severe foreign com potition,
but the limit OF the consumers purchas-
WOODEN manufacturer. and fear the rat cs
OF the new bill Will very materially restrict
consumption.
This. is practically saying TO Dingley,
Hldrich md tho other servants of the
protected manufacturers Mt Washing
ton:
go slow with your high duties and
don't try to protect too many. lfyou
let everybody into the protection ring,
there will be nobody outside to prey
upon and we. will have to prey upon
each other. Don't make the mistake
OF taxing raw mnterial too high. We
wouldn't mind it IL we could sell our
goods and charge the tax over TO the
consumer. But when the Tux. Is 80 high
that We have to make our prices almost
out of sight we have found that we can
not sell go many goods because the pco-
pie cant afford to wear clothes-that
is. woolen clothes, which nre the only
ones worth considering. because they
arc the only ones which we mnnufac-
ture. Our solicitude for the dear Amer
lean consumer Is such that we do not
wish to compel him to clothe himself In
