ENGLISH EVIDENCE.
It Speaks Strongly in Favor of the
Efficiency of the American
Tariff.
Boston aJournalo lRepA. ]

eff it were not for that (the protective
tariff" so Thomas Ashton, the Eng
fish labor leader, is quoted by the New
Bedford STANDARD" as saying, 1--WE should
flood the United States with yarn. 1t is
for them and not for US to appreciate
whether the duties are a blessing or q
curse"
Mr.. Ashton, who is president OF the
Almalgamation of Operative Cotton Spin
ners of England, had been interviewed
with regard to a report that the New Bed
ford manufacturers might buy and i'm
port English yarn and thus run their
looms if the strike in their mills continued.
1t was asserted by the leaders of the strike
that the English operatives would not
spin warn for use in New Bedford. Mr..
Ashton, when spoken to about it, charac-
terized this statement as nonsense. at is
utterly impossible for the operatives here
to know who are the customers of their
employers, he said eff our employers
get profitable order it has nothing to do
with us where it comes from, and we as
trade unionists should never inquire so
long as we get the standard rate of wages
and the proper conditions of work"
This rather cynical reply was not the
which the New Bedford strik
ers were looking for. Nor was Mr. Ash
toms subsequent remark that if it were
not for protection 1--WE should flood the
United States with yarn just what the
free trade press and politicians that have
been fomenting this trouble would desire.
1t is already apparent that Mr., Ashton's
on both points are bound to
have an important effect upon the New
Bedford situation.

Is This Democracy?

"But we think that the rich men of
America are revealing a deadly plot
against all genuine public freedom that,
unless we are mistaken, the opening years
of the new century will witness an out
burst in the West, which will amaze the
civilized world"
With these words Chairman Jones seeks
to rally the disconnected of all parties and
march them out against the rich. There
is threat in his words which is little short
of incendiary, and it is menace to the
very existence of the republic. "Down
with the money power" is his cry, and
that, he tells US, is to be the one issue.
Democrats and Republicans and Populists
are to ignore for the time all questions of
difference and make common cause against
wealth. And yet this is to be done in the
name of Democracy The great party
which has always stood for the interests of
the whole people, and which has ignored
class distinctions, is now to lay aside its
principles and make war, not as a party,
but as one faction in horde of discon-
tents, upon one envied class. Who would
have believed that this proud old party
could have stopped so low? Yet it is not
surprising. When the party forsook its
principles in 1896 and consorted With Pop
ulists and silver Republicans, it started on
the down grade, and descent is always
easy.
1t is a sad spectacle. 1t is a spectacle
that must bring all true Democrats to re-
Election. Not one of the Democratic
papers of Virginia, so far as we have seen,
has spoken in approval Of the proposed
onslaught.

LUMINOUS PAINT.
Used for n Variety of Purposes In city
and Country.

Used for u Variety ofPurpOses In CITY
and Country.
Luminous paint is used more in
the country than in the city, but its
use generally is increasing, says the
New York Sun. 1t is used in cities in
dark scenes in the theaters, and dancers
costumes are coated with it. Luminous
paint is used for the illumination of
doctors signs, and of street numbers,
and night bells, and keyholes and door
knobs, and it is used to paint match
boxes and various other things. 1t is
not luminous except in the dark, and SO,
for sign purposes, it is used only in
such places as are not reached by the
rays from the street lamp.
Luminous paint is not phosphores-
cent, but it absorbs light in the day, or
light from electric or other artificial
lights, which it gives out in the dark;
most commonly, indoors and out, it is
used upon objects that are exposed to
daylight. The distance at which such
objects can be seen at night depends
upon their size. Luminous paint Is
used in the country on highway sign
boards or guidboards, for painting
posts or stones marking roadways, and
so On, and on the water it is used for
painting harbor buoys.
There is also made luminous card
board, which is used for various pur-
poses,

Pretty Hard on the Silver TOngued

The Caucasian" a Populist paper pub
lshed at Raleigh n. c., in recent issue
made the following remarks about Senator
Daniel. Coming from one of the Senator's
allies it is pretty severe. See what it
says:

Senator Daniel is drawing $4,000 year
salary as a senator. He is, by profession,
a silver Democratic Chicago platform
Democrat. That platform declares against
mono poly, against corporation oppression
and robbery against federal interferences
in State affairs, etc and this same Hon.
John w. Daniel processes to be in sympa-

a Sam IOnes Campaign.
Philadelphia Press.1

FhlIaGclphia Gress.
Everybody has heard of Sam Jones re-
vival, but q Sam jones campaign is some
thing new. Georgia will have such cam
paign this summer, however, if Mr.. Jones
persists in lunning for Governor. He has
announced himself as a candidate, but
whether his candidacy is to be subject to
the approval of the Democratic State Con-
vention or whether he is to run as an in
dependent is not now known. Time will
have to clear up that mystery.
Mr.. Jones began his campaign in his
characteristic way. When it was rumored
that he would announce himself as can
didate the atlanta journal" telephoned
to him asking him whether the report was
true. Mr.. Jones seht back the senten-
tious reply: "None of your business. !"
On Monday he came out with an an
nouncement Of his intentions which fills
about four columns in the Journal and
is full of references to ''ring streaked poll
ticians," "plp-suckers, " ''lttle lousy ras'
calls" etc. And yet Mr.. Jones says:
"Now, gentlemen, you must understand
that l call no names" The platform on
which he intends to run is 'simple, una
dulterated, unpurchasable, unbulldozable
manhood" and he does not propose to
'lUg into the campaign gold-buggery and
silver diggery and the tariff issue"
Side issues will be sternly tabooed in
Mr.. Jones campaign. He does not pro-
pose to have the main issue clouded OF
have the people stampeded by any cry
about monopoly or currency reform OF
tariff reform. The issues of honest gov
eminent and equa. rights must be kept to
the front. Or to put it in Mr.. Jones' way;

A Common
cold

and common carelessness can make a
combination strong enough to defy
all the healing skill of the physician.
Common carelessness let's the cold
root and grow. Common carelessness
says, between paroxysms of cough
ing, at will be all right in day or
two," and the common end is con-
frmed lung trouble, perhaps con-
sumption. The common-sense treat
ment of a common cold is prompt

is the most efficient and reliable cure
for colds and coughs, and is con-
stantly prescribed by physicians.

1t Accounts in Part for a Check in

IRON MANUFACTURE IMPROVES.

tions the Prices Indicate Strength

for Alaska.

R. G. Dunn & Co.'S weekly trade review
for last week said:
Foreign possibilities have much affected
speculation and caused hesitation in some
large business operations, possibly account
ing in part for check in the rapid ad-
vance of wheat, but industrial production
continues larger than ever, a few more
works being added to the active list, with
a decline in number of hands on strike and
renewed evidence that the volume of bus
mess is larger than in February of any
previous year; nor is there any symptom of
a senseless craze based on rising prices.
The legitimate export and domestic de-
mand presses closer to the capacity of
works, and though there is no Eighty adj
vance in any line, and, and in all narrow
ness of profit is matter of complaint, new
business for this dull season is unprece-
dented.

WHEAT DECLINES.

Wheat continued its progress upward
until 108.75 was reached on Monday, but
declined 81 cents later as if there were fear
that Spain would somehow stop British
vessels from taking wheat across the wa
ter. Amy yielding based on foreign posi-.
bilities deserves little notice, but the price
has advanced about ten cents since Chi
cago spectators last took occasion to
shake off weak followers and the opportu-
nifty for reaction was inviting There is
no abating of foreign demand. Atlantic
exports were l 1868, Sl4 bushels flour in
cluded) for the week, against l 1926, 444 last
year, and Pacific exports, 1,576,376,
against 1876, 434 last year.
In view of current excitement these fig
ures are more important than the aggre'
gate for four weeks, 1885, 12 bushels,
against {, 5SS, 415 last year from Atlantic
ports and 4,053,02 against ILL., 46
from Pacific ports.
Corn exports for the week were l4.5 per
cent. less than last year, but the cash
price declined but slightly. Thespot price
of cotton was not affected.
1t is not the season for much improve
ment in the textile manufacture, but the
cotton branch has gained by the closing Of
the strike in one Fall River mill, and by
the addition of some works at the South.
The wool manufacture meets many cancel
lations, and especially in goods sold early
without definite prices, but it is no more
than ever at this season, though higher
grades of worsted are not particularly en-
couraging. Sales are slow with weakness
in clothing amounting to about two cents
decline from the highest point, indicating
that mills have at present abundant stocks,
but some are selling foreign wool in order
to take supplies of other qualities.
In goods of medium and low grades the
demand continues large. The silk manu-
facture shows a remarkable increase dur
ing the last six months, having imported
raw material far in excess of consumption
in any previous year, and at a rate of 12O
per cent. above the imports in the last
census.

changed there, local coke strong at Chicago
in spite of some Southern weakness, and
Eastern anthracite really unchanged,
though quotations are a shade lower. No
finished products have changed in price,
and all are strong in demand excepting
bar, which combination has failed to adj
vance. Some large contracts are reported
especially in car and bridge building, ship
and structural work, and the demand for
sheets is heavy. Minor metals changed
but little, tin weakening shade to forty
cents with large receipts.
Failures for the week have been 233 in
