AMERICAN WOOlENS.
Increasing Proportion Of Domestic Cloth
Now Being Worn.

The American people wearing proper
tionally more of domestic wooens than ever
before and less of foreign This hard fact may
violently conflict with the belief and the hopes
of "a small denationaliZed element in this coun-
try, but il will deeply crafty the patriotic
men of all parties who know that a symmet-
rical development Of American manufactur-
ing Is essential TO the permanent welfare of the
republc.-Boston Journal.
Under the Mckinley tariff nearly 50
per cent of the woolen fabrics worn and
used in the United States were woven in
this country. The Wilson tariff added
very materially TO the proportion of
foreign cloths marketed in America, be-
sides swelling enormously the importa-
tions of shoddy and other cheap substi-
tutes for wool.
One of the benign effects of the Ding
ley tariff is co diminish alike the impor-
tation of woolen cloth and of shoddy.
The result has been TO push our woolen
mills TO their utmost capacity "a supply
the home demand for domestic woolens,
while at the same time increasing the
quality and value of these fabrics by
discouraging the use Of shoddies.
If the proportion of home woven
woolens used in this country should be
increased TO 80 per cent it would be to
the country's advantage in all ways.
Five years of protection and certainty
of market will so broaden and diversity
the arts Of designing and weaving wool
en- textures as TO meet every possible re-
quirement of taste and utility and leave
little or no room for foreign woolens
That is what the American policy Will
do for American wool manufacture.
AS the case now stands the wearer of
woolen cloth may be comfortably, cor
rectly and elegantly dressed and yet
wear only fabrics of domestic weave.
Better make it % per cent at once.

Des Moines, Ia, May 2O.-A special
from Cedar Rapids says: Further de-
tails of the fearful cyclone which swept
through the northeastern part of Cedar
county, the southeastern part Of Jones
county, the northern part Of Clinton
county, and touching the southern part
of Jackson county. show that it was
even more destructive than at first re-

where not a building or fence Of any
kind was left standing Cattle, horses and
hogs have been killed by the hundreds
Many farmers lost all their earthly
possessions, and in some instances the
individual losses will reach as high as
$4,000. The storm was more in the
nature of a torando, the path varying
from forty rods to half mile i'm width
The fury and force Of the storm may be
judged when il is stated that from one
farm house near Delmar an iron safe
weighing LOO pounds was picked up
and carried several hundred feet.
A special from Delmar, where the
storm was the severest, says: "A bar
