FINE COT1~
American Mills Comp~te with High
Grades of Enrore.n Manuiactuve.

American Mills C0mpete with High
Grades OF European Manufacture.
1t is a fact well 'Town in the trade,
though not altogeiii.r pnblicly known,
that there are touny more than a score
of cotton manufacturing esta Adjustments
in eastern states which are not only
profitably producing fine grades and
styles of cotton goods, but under the in
creased rates of the Dingley tariff ON
fine cottons they are successfully COM
peting as 10 price and quality with the
finest fabrics made in England. The
manufacturers are confident of their
ability very soon also TO compete with
the goods made in France or elsewhere
ON the continent AS regards style and
quality, though they may not be able
TO compete with the foreign manufac-
turers in the European markets because
of the cheaper labor, lower taxes and
longer hours of work, which factors OPP
crate greatly TO the advantage of the
continental manufacturers.
Were il possible for our mill owners
to lessen the cost of production by Sc
curing the advantages in these respects
which are enjoyed by foreign manufac-
turers there is little doubt that the Eu-
ropean markets could be successfully in
vaded by the makers of fine American
fabrics. AS the cost of production can
not thus be reduced, particularly by the
eastern mills, without a heavy reduc-
tion in the element of labor cost, which
is ont of the question, the manufactur-
ers must probably be content with sup
plying the home market. By carefully
studying the varying requirements of
this market and by improving upon the
styles and the quality of the goods the
domestic field will gradually grow
broader the output will increase in
volume and the profits will year by year
doubtless be more satisfactory, while at
the same time the American standard
of wages may be maintained.
Very many of the mills which are
now engaged in the manufacture of the
finest fabrics were originally makers of
fine, standard grades of shirtings. AS
the demand for these goods decreased,
for various reasons, and the production
of them became less profitable changes
were made in machinery, finer staple
was procured, and more delicate fabrics
were produced, for which there was even
then ready market.
The protective tariff has contributed
very largely TO the success of these en-
terprises in fine goods.

"A friend not long ago was telling me

"She was subject to terrible fainting

"Dr. Williams Pink Pills have not only
stopped the fainting spells, bot given her so
much strength that she is able to take up

To more highly endorse her words, Mrs.
Browning made affidavit before George w.

from that, are cured by DR.. William Pink

A WHOLESOME MEASURE.
The Grade of Tea Greatly Improved by
New Regulations.

New Regulations.
One of the biggest feathers in the cap
of the present administration might APP
propriately be in the form of a tea leaf.
The enactment III March, 1897, and the
subsequent enforcement of the well con-
sidered new tea law have been doubly
advantageous. 1t has not only resulted
in the exclusion of unwholesome low
grade stuff heretofore imported and sold
in large quantities as tea, but it has
given to the people of the whole coun-
try teas of unquestionable purity. Since
this law has been in operation the Gus
toms examiners have been furnished
with uniform standards carefully Sc
lected by the most eminent tea experts
in the country, and by the application
OF these standards to all teas offered for
import it has been possible to rigidly
exclude all inferior and adulterated
teas.
The customs authorities Of the port Of
New York say that since last spring not
pound Of impure tea has come into
this country. The tea drinkers Of the
United States are thus protected in
sanitary sense, and the consumption of
good tea has increased.
An attempt to reimport about -, 600
pounds Of inferior teas once rejected by
the examiners at this port was promptly
stopped only "a few days ago by the To-
cal appraiser. This merchandise came
here originally from China. After its
first rejection by the federal tea exam
liner il was taken out of the country as
required by law. The superstition is
that its owners took it to Canada and
sent it from there to England for on its
recent appearance here it came direct
from London. A few years ago this
country was flooded with bad teas, some
of them of very deleterious quality.
Today there is probably no country in
the world more free than is our own
from such mischievous merchandise.

GOLD STANDARD FOR INDIA.
In Few Years China VIII BE the Only

fFee
On the motion of the secretary of
state for India the house of commons
has appointed a committee to inquire
into the practicability of the proposals
of the Indian government for the estab-
lishment of the gold standard in that
country.
That committee will go to work in
leisurely fashion and may not make its
report for year to come But undoubt
eddy when that report is made it will
be recommendation that the gold
standard be introduced in India There
may be some difference of opinion
among the members of the committee
about the ways and means, but mono as
to the desirability of adopting the
world S standard of money.
The action taken by the house of
commons, coupled with the statement
Of the secretary for India that the Indi-
an minis cannot be reopened without
some international agreement and chat
any such agreement seems out of the
question, makes it certain that those
minis will not be reopened TO silver.
Not the least effect was produced in the
silver bullion market. Evidently the
dealers in that metal have been con-
WINGED for some time that India never
would lido anything for silver
In comparatively short time India,
with its nearly 800, 600, 600 people, will
have the gold standard. The only large
mass of people who will not have that
standard will be the Chinese. But Chi
ma is being divided among gold stand

No stronger Argument

The government at Washington also
fully understands that there is no ar
gument stronger than the argument of
a million men with arms in their hands,
ready and eager TO maintain the honor
and integrity Of this government OF
the people. The government at Wash
ington knows that the call for another
quarter of a million soldiers TO meet
any emergency which might arise from
foreign interference would be prompt
ly responded TO without the necessity
Of a draft. The powers of Europe will
also understand this fact. 1t has taken
one month to enlist muster and equip
125, 600 men, and by the close Of another
fortnight the aggregate strength Of our
military establishment will be 27S500
men. This will be more than ten times
the strength of our little standing army
on a peace footing. 1t is an object les
son which statesmen and military men
in foreign capitals will not be slow to
apprehend and fully understand.
Another thing, and ii should not be
overlooked, is the fact that the govern
ment at Washington has rejected the
applications of upwards Of half mill
ion of veterans OF the late war, whose
services are not needed but who are not
too old to serve with credit, and many
of them with distinction, in the event of
necessity.
The policy of President Mckinley is
regarded by statesmen as the most bold
and aggressive policy that has been pur-
sued by any president Of this republic
particularly in time of peace. Although
the president undertook to avoid war,
and went TO such lengths for the main
tenance OF peace that he was universal

Colonial Possessions.
1t is fact that people should under
stond that the president not only in
tends To take possession of Cuba, Porto
Rico, and the Philippine islands, but he
intends also that the Hawaiian islands
shall become a part of the colonial pos
sessions Of the United tSates
This determination of the president
has been strongly combatted by Speak
or Reed, but ultimately the president
will succeed in carrying to it's ultimate
conclusion the manifest destiny of this
country 70 become one OF the most fore
most nations OF tn world. with posses
