Effects OF REORGANIZATION.

The anticipatory imports of wool and
woolens and sugar-rendered possible
by Democratic procrastinating talk
and the debating of amendments which
the opposers did not desire or expect
to have adopted, and other tricks OF
delay practiced for the express purpose
of enabling outside confederates to run
in enormous quantities Of goods under
the schedules of the Democratic Will
son-Gorman bill-have prevented the
Dingley tariff bill from producing as
much revenue by many millions as 1t
would be doing but for the unpatriotlc
and fraudulent action Of the Democrat

FAREWELL TO SHODDY
IMPORTATION DISCOURAGE
UNDER NEW TARIFF.
Nearly Fifty Millions OF This Counter
felt stun Entered Into the Clothing
of American Wage oEarners During
the Closing Twelve Months of the
wilson q orman Law.

"Shoddy, % cents per pound" Such
is the stalwart provision in the new
tariff law. The time is past when the
wooden rags and wastes of all Europe
can be crowded upon this country 10
debase the standard of goods used in
OF the poorest refuse of its kind. In
the last year of the Mckinley law its
importation reached only $4,000
pounds. But the Wilson law sent up
the importation in 1895 to $4,000, 900
pounds, in 1896 to 100000 pounds
and in 1897 to 100000 pounds. 1t
was high time to call halt on this
curse upon honest manufacturing.
More than half pound of shoddy for
every inhabitant of the United States
year of the Wilson law, and is sure to
reappear somewhere in fabrics pre-
tending 10 be better than they are. All
the fine theories about free wool took
this miserable shape in actual prac-
tice. AS far as free-trade was put in
operation, its result was rank shoddy-
ism, idle workers, a national treasury
in distress and huge deficit.
The 100000 pounds of shoddy that
came TO us across the Atlantic in the
last twelve months of the Wilson law
will not be duplicated in the year fol-
lowing. The counterfeit stuff, fitting
emblem for disastrous free trade eX-
pertinent, has been shut out. But
much of it, brought in to evade the
new duty, is stacked up in warehouses,
and as long as it holds out will work
to the injury of the consumer, who
knowingly would not purchase articles
in which ii is used. The foreign shod-
dy goods were given deceptive finish,
and, as the reporter" states, drove
out of the market enormous quantities
Of domestic fabrics. European manu-
facturers utilized the period of the
Wilson law to flood this country with
sham goods. Gripping our own indus
tries while fooling us to the top of our
bent. The Wilson law era of shoddy-
ism is over and il is scarcely conceiv-
able that the voters OF the country will
ever invite its repetltion.-St. Louis

Cannot BE Disputed.

Protectionists maintain that the pro-
tective policy, by insuring American
capitalists against foreign competition,
has led them to embark their capital,
and has enabled them to build up large
enterprises, in which thousands OF
wage earners find employment. 1t is
for the free traders to show wherein
this contention is unsound. When they
have done this-and they have never
found it easy TO do-they will be called
upon to convince the American public
that if protection had not been the pol
icy Of this country our capitalists
would have been equally enterprising
and equally successful, or else that
some other equally valuable results
would have been obtained. And though
the free traders are numerous, and
though some of them are able, they do
not make much progress in their efforts
TO convince the American public OF
these things.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

EAST SIDE COURT.
The Recorder Holds a Matinee-Uses
Mace on a Colored Bum
Preacher after Court.

Recorder Murphy had quite an
array of Weary Willies and back
door buns before him this morning.
There we're seven white men ar
ranged under the charge of Yag-
rancy. Each one sang his song
telling of his troubles and the
want of work but could not pro-
cure it, etc.
After all had been heard the
recarder discharged two-the best
singers in the lot and told the five
Others that they could remain over
awhile and work on County avenue
or some other old street.
There was one prisoner left to be
tried. He was a bum colored
preacher, a black evangelist, a
street exhorter He was given a
chance to sing his song and he
pitched out and told what he was,
said his name was Isaiah Thompson,
and that he was engaged in saving
souls, he also threw down a banter
to the court by saying that he had
been arrested at Hot Springs, Lit
tie Rock, Pine Bluff and other plac-
es and that he had been fined, but
he took good care to see that he
did not pay them a cent. Here a
whispered conversation TOOK place
between the city marshal and re-
corder and after the consultation
tae recorder said to the bum
preacher: Gas you seem to be such
an important parsonage, l shall
place your fine little sleeper than
| have these white men, and you
stand indebted to the city in the
sum of $25 and costs of court
This did not seem to faze the
brazonness of the bum Gospel ex-
FOUNDER, for when court was dis.
missed he grew talkative and in
sulting and told Recorder Murphy
he had better take those white
trash prisoners he had just fined
dress them up and feed them, than
hound them down in the manner he
had.
This was too much for our re-
corder to stand and he used the
Mayors mace on his coonship's s
head and dried him up
The reporter was told that the
city marshal thought the negro
was wanted at Malvern for a crime
and the heavy fine was placed on
him with a view to hold him until
an officer could come here and make
an investigation, lfhe proves to
be the one wanted at Malvern,
the rope is awaiting his neck there
now, for his crime is one that calls
strongly for hemp.
