The Infamous Wool schedule.

The senate computations of the equiv
alents for Dingley bill rates on woolen
goods only need to be stated. They
make opposing argument unnecessary
in the mere reading. For example, the
rate is 90 per cent ON second class wool,
$50 per cent on garnetted waste, S26
per cent on shoddy, III per cent on
woolen cloths valued at not more than
90 cents per pound, 1877 per cent on
blankets more than three yards in
length and valued at not more than 80
cents per pound, 212 per cent ON shawls
valued at not exceeding 40 cents per
pound, 151 per cent on knit fabrics val
ued at not exceeding 40 cents per
pound, 257 per cent ON hats of wool val
ued at not more than 30 cents per

valued at not over 40 cents per pound,

Heavy Duties on Linens.


The following are some of the com
ments of a man well acquainted will
linens and the linen industry upon thu
senate doctored Dingley bill:
The proposed duties on linen good,
under the amended Dinlgey bill are
heavier than ever, although it has beer
claimed that the senate bad reduced
rates. These goods paid for many years
35 per cent and yielded a steady reve
nue TO the government. The rates now
proposed vary from 90 to 100 per cent,
md the burden falls heaviest on low
and medium goods, which are chiefly
IsCd in the homes of the poorer people.
A cheap tablecloth now selling at re-
tail ut 20 cents per yard will have to be
sold at 3719 cents to 40 cents if the
quality Ge kept up.
MediCm linen for children's summer
5'Cus,s Nill be assessed 09b per cent
ird the retail price will have to go up
lcccc 4inFly.
Linen forms the raw material for
maIy American industries, as Innings
FOR clothing aud other purposes where
strength and durability are required.
Such goods will be advanced 20 to 30
per cent
1t is claimed that this advance is nee
essary for revenue, but the effect will be
that the people will in many cases substi.
Cute something cheaper, and thus be de-
3rived Of this useful fabric and the reve.
nue. will be corrcspondingly diminished.
1t is said that linen goods can be made
here, but this has been tried again and
again, and except in the case of few
low crashes has been a failure, owing to
the climate and other difficulties, but
even if they could be made hero the
rates are unnecessarily oppressive. The.
entire cost of weaving linen goods in
Europe is about ~ to 10 per cent the
selling price Of the article here, and in
America the cost should not be at the
very outside more than double this per-
centage, so that, even if Republican
theories be true, protection of 35 per
cent should be ample to allow for high
er wages and extra profits for our man.
1t is possible speculators may start
mills on the strength of these excessive
rates, sell the stock, and then step out,
leaving the unfortunate laborer and
to face the difficulties of
the situation as best they can. The la
borer probably, having been brought
here from Europe (for labor is on the
free list), with unreasonable expecta-
tions, will be left to join the army of
and discomfort. Why
should these exorbitantly high rates be
assessed ON an article more or less in
use in every household in the land, and
the cost Of living SO much increased in
these days Of keen competition and
small profits? Why should the plain peo-
pie be taxed to put more money in the |
pockets of the rich? If the wealthy |
want to make expert
nents, let them do so at their own cost,
Tot tax the poor for that purpose.

prospect for a big hop yield was
never better, and most hop men feel

HOPS IN YORK STATE.

The progress of the growing crop
has been watched with more than
usual interest. Advices of lice on the
Increase in some sections of this state
have caused fear as to the safety of
the vines. If the season were a month
later there would be very serious dam
ger, but it is now early and If we
should have hot dry weather the lice
may leave the yards, But the pres
ence OF these pests, and the rather
unfavorable condition of the yards
because of previous neglect make the
outlook at the present writing little
gloomy. There is time for some i'm
provement under very favorable con-
dltions, hence it is impossible to tell
what the outcome will be- Much the
same conditions prevail in Europe,
especially England, though there is
stronger growth OF vine on most of
the plantations. Fly and lice have
appeared in certain localities, but
growers and dealers take the ground
that they may disappear if the weather
continues good. These reports have
had just a little stimulating effect
here, and while business has not i'm
proved to an appreciable extent, hold
ers would not as rule accept the
prices at which they were Offering
stock week ago.

Manufacturers Against the Tartn B,,l.

One of the most striking indications
of the growth Of sentiment against high
protection and of a liberal sentiment
upon tariff matters is the movement
against the pending tariff bill by the
Manufacturers Association of the Unit
ed States. Mr.. A. B. Farquhar, an ex-
tensive manufacturer of agricultural
machinery at York, Pa, is at the head
of the movement
1t is well known that in the manu-
facturo Of agricultural implements and
machinery Americans are far in advance
of their competitors in any other land
and that the products of their factories
may be seen in the fields all over the
civilized world. These people need no
protection and are we'll able to take care
of themselves. All they ask is to have
untaxed raw material, SO that they will
not be placed at disadvantage.
A great list of other industries are
practically in the same position and de-
sire free raw material more than they
desire protection. 1t is also significant
that the manufacturers, in their petit
tion to the senate, declare that their
ability to employ American labor will
be greatly impaired by the passage of
the tariff bill. They ask that the Chi
nese wall that is obstructing the foreign
trade and crippling American enterprise
shall be broken down.
The plea which has been used for
years by the protectionists - namely,
that protection is in the interest of
American labor-is shown by census
figures to be a sham. OF the 5, 900, 900
persons employed In manufacturing in
the United States it is shown in the pc
tition that less than 200, 900 are en-
ployed in occupations subject to active
foreign competition and GIG, 900 in
occupations subject to moderate for
eign competition. The remainder, over
1, 900, 900, do not come at all in compe-
5ition with foreign labor.
1t is very plain that the Dinglcy bill
IS not designed, any more than any other
ligh protective measure was designed,

THE DOUBT ABOUT FREE "CUTCH."

Anxious to find out why the papers
were so earnestly congratulating the coun-
try that the Dingley bill admitted "cutch"
free, we consulted Webster's unabridged
dictionary and found that he gives the
word "cutch" twice. The first he refers
TO "catechu," which we find he defines
as "a dry brown astringent extract OBJ
tanned by decoction and evaporation from
the acacia catechu and several other
plants growing in India" but about the
time we were concluding that Clutch was
an astringent we looked out the second
reference which refers to "cutch.' which
we found means 'empty oyster shells and
other substances laid down in oyster
grounds TO furnish points for the attach
ment Of the spawn Of the oyster" and
upon u.s. whether 'cutch" that we are TO
have the glorious privilege of importing
free of duty means an astringent or empty
oyster shells, and as we are Ignorant OF
whether or not empty oyster shells have
any astringent qualities, we are left still
in doubt and perpleXity as to tins privi-
lege granted to the people of this country
by the Dingley bill. Our soul will be per-
turbed with dreadful doubt and anxious
perplexty until this question is settled
are we TO he permitted to enjoy an as
tringent ad libitum, or does the Dinglcy
bill only assure us the privilege of import
ing empty oyster shells free of duty? Be
fore this question the Graeco-Turkish inn
hroglo sinks into insignificance. the Gu
ban question is but drop of water in
the great bucket of expectancy. What
is it, Mr.. Dingley, that you are going to
give us free? An astringcnt, or empty
oyster shells? For the sake of the peace
of mind of the country relieve this terri
BILE doubt.
