Paris, June 13.-President Loubet
conferred with the president of the
senate, NJ. Fallieres and with the pres
ident of the chamber of deputies, NJ.
Deschanel, this morning, and impress
sed them with the necessity of quick
ly ending the cabinet crisis.
NJ. Poincare was summoned by Pres
at the Elysee palace. 1t was believed
Poincare would be asked to form a
cabinet. 1t was understood he was
ready to accept the task and it was
even said that he had already selected
a cabinet, to be composed as follows:
NJ. Poincare, premier and minister of
public instruction; NJ. Delcasse, min
lister of the interior; NJ. Bourgoiese,
minister of foreign affairs; NJ. Krantz,
minister Of war; NJ. Rouvier or NJ. Del
ombre, minister of finance; NJ. Wal
deck-Rosseau or NJ. Monis, minister of
justice; NJ. LannesSan, minister Of
commerce; NJ. Sarrien, minister of pub
lie works; Senator Jean Dupuy, minis
ter of agriculture; NJ. Guillain, minis
ter of the colonies.
The air today is full of reports re-
garding the probable successor of NJ
Dupuy as premier. NJ. Poincare was
the favorite this morning. but after
three quarters of an hour spent in con-
ference with the president, he declined
to accept the task. He is a moderate
republican and evidently doubted that
he would be able to succeed in forming
a cabinet, which the papers this after
noon think, after yesterdays vote, must
be a radical cabinet.

The imitation OF the most famous OF
foreign brands in many lines of man
ufacture by American producers is con-
Quoted on as large or larger a scale to-
day than ever before. There are, how
ever, SOM notable exceptions 20 this
rule. For example. 1t is a fact now
generally recognized that the best cut
glass in the world is the American;
but in some other lines of manufacture
the sentiment OF the Euromaniacs Is
still very strong.
To illustrate: In many lines of silks
and woolens made by American man.
ufacturers foreign brands are still used
very largely. A representative of the
American Economist met one OF our
largest manufacturers a few days since,
who was about to introduce a new line
OF dress goods. and said that 1t would
be necessary to introduce this as a
foreign manufacture to begin with.
WHY" wan asked. Because II I at
tempted 10 introduce this dress goods
as American the people who are seek
ing foreign goods constantly would
claim that my product should be sold
at 20 per cent less than I can sell these
same goods to a foreign importing
house. Consequently l will introduce
these goods through an importing
house. and afterward I will bring out
the trademark or design"
In time the American people will be
educated up to the act of the dis
tinctive merit OF the products of their
own countryside silks. the woolens.
the dress goods. the wines, cigars. min
eral waters. etc.-and it will no longer
be necessary to sell such products I'M

The newspapers have been pretty
busy recording the number of instances
of the increase OF wages and OF the
reopening OF factories since the pas
sage OF the Dingley law. They have
had a hard task to keep track OF them
all, but there Is a harder task before
them. They will be Obliged now, and
in a constantly increasing number OF
cases in the future, to turn their at
tention to another phase OF the pros
porous times which have come to the
country-viz.. the building of new
mills and the establishment OF new in
dustries. One commercial paper pub
lished in a single issue recently, in ad-
dition to its numerous reports Of in
creased prosperity in different cases
of industries already established. the
announcement of a new pulp mill OF
mammoth size in Wisconsin. a new
wall paper plant in Massachusetts and
a new fertilizer factory in Georgia.

The latest and most prominent con
vert to the doctrine of a protective
tariff is Hon. William r. Grace. former
mayor of New York and a leading
Democrat Of national reputation. Mr..
Grace was for years one of the strong
est free traders. standing in close sym
pathy with Cleveland and Wilson. Mr..
Grace says:
Il am o ashamed now to say that
in the light Of recen events l have
completely changed those views and
now see. as | believe, clearly that the
amazing growth in all that makes for
permanently prosperous conditions and
in all influences that have SO recently
established the United States as a first
power among the nations OF the world.
not only politically. but financially and
commercially. is due in great measure
to the policy of protection"
Mr.. Grace says facts are stronger
than theories" and the facts of the
past two years under the Dingley law,
as compared with those under the Will
son law, are enough to overturn any
theory and convince Mr.. Grace or any
other free trade Democrat.-Tacoma
(Wash) Ledger.

A year or two g there were many
complaints OF the declining cotton
manufacturing industry of New Eng
land, but we are glad to learn from the
Springfield Republican that there is
TO- a complete change for the better;
that the mills everywhere are actively
employed; hat prices are firm, that
the export demand is good: that the
home market is strong, and that the
business is generally profitable. Mills
which had suspended dividends are re-
Stunning a distribution of profits, and
many others are increasing dividends.
The A~moskeag's current semi-annual
dividend is 5 per cent, against 4 per
cent paid six months ago and 2 per
cen in the first half of 1898.
The Republican does not tell us
that this recovery of prosperity on the
part OF the New England cotton mills
is due to Republican protection, as
that would be too frank an admission
for a Cleveland mugwump to make;
but as the cotton mill prosperity has
come along with all the other indus-
trial prosperity since the triumph of
Republicanism in 1896 and the enact
ment of the Dingley law in 1897, 1t Is
a fair inference that the adoption of
the protective policy by the nation has
something to do with Minneapolis

Whnt hIIrht Ia Done.

Another vindication of a high pro-
tective tariff has been found by a
Pennsylvania professor. AS is well
known, we maintain a tariff on sar-
dimes for the benefit of the New Eng
land herrings. out of which our "sar-
dimes are made, and now this profess
sor that good asphalt can
be made out of herrings. With the
maintenance of that tariff a few years
longer it would not be surprising IL we
could make altar of roses and cross-cut
saws out of herrings.-Louisville Cour-
Ter Journal.
We can still do better than that. We
can make tramps out of u mechanics
and laboring men by a return to the
good old days of the Wilson-Gorman
tariff measure. We can do still more.
We can issue gold bonds to carry on
the government and bring idleness and
want and hunger into almost every
home in the land. Shall we do it?-

In Need of Some Pret.xt.

The Democrats have been opposed to
protection ever since John C. Calhoun
decided hat such a policy would best
subserve the slave holding cotton pro-
ducers of the South. but it has never
occurred to them before to denounce
the tariff because it was a trust pro-
ducing policy. II it be said that trusts
have o before existed to any often
sive or dangerous degree. the further
question can well apply. Why should
1t be assumed that the protective tariff
is in the least degree responsible for
trusts, II for almost half a century pro-
lection existed without causing or
creating trusts? We are perfectly
willing that our free trade friends shall
charge the floods in Texas or the cy-
clone in Kansas as evil effects of the
protective tariff IL it seems best for
them to do so, but the lines of ordinary
possibility must not be passed If their
charges are to be seriously discussed

A MAMMOTH INSTITUTION.

To those who are accustomed to
|sending away from home for their
goods 1t is of the greatest importance
to know the character and reliability
lof the establishments selling goods to
families from catalogues. The great
emporium of the John NJ. Smyth Co.
located at $50 to 166 West Madison
street, Chicago, has been established
for a third of a century, and has fur
nished over a half a million homes in
Chicago and vicinity alone. This firm
enjoys the confidence of the public by
its many years of fair dealing. 1t is
sues an immense illustrated catalogue
that should be in every family, as it
describes inc gives the price of every
article required for household use. A
sample of the extraordinary values of
fered by this firm is shown Ia the illus
tration OF the lady's ulster in another
column of this paper. These garments
are indeed wonderful values, and yet
they are but a sample OF the thousand
and one useful articles illustrated and
described in the beautiful catalogue of

conscientious work, the best equipment
that is possible, and the employment
of every that can be com.

valuable article on The Young Man

Der Ladies' Home Journal. Even the

his work. while executive ability, and
good, hard common sense are elements
of genius that should never be lacking.

Uncle Sam continues to reap a double
profit from the Dingley lava direct
profit through the increased customs
receipts and an Indirect profit through
the prosperity of the people in general.
The receipts for the fifty largest post
offices for the month of July, 1899,
show an increase over the receipts for
July, 1898, of SIT 800. this increase be-
ing equal to 81 per cent. This means

When a policy has been In operation
Sc long As that of the protective tariff
1t Is only rational to look to results al
ready achieved rather than to the orig
inal theories in estimating its eco
nomic values. That is what ex-Mayor
Grace has done. He has glanced about
him In commercial ranks and he has
everywhere observed substantial evil
fence of healthy growth. He a seen
the exports from the American facto-
ries, for which the tariff tonic was de-
signed, more than doubled during the
period of which he speaks. lie has
found every commercial gauge regis
tertng high-water mark. and he has
come to the natural conclusion that
1t was because of the tariff and not in
spite of 1t that the country has pros
pered. That is the logical conclusion
and 1t is not at all improbable that
other Democrats have reached 1t, but
lack the moral courage to go on record

So tho wheel Goe. Round.

1t is reported from Duluth that the
retail business of hat city is double
what 1t was a year ago. This state of
affairs has been brought about chiefly
by the largely increased purchases
made by the families of wage earners
There has een such a growth of in
dustry in that vicinity that there is
said to be more work to be lone than
there are laborers to do 1t, and the in
dications are that this condition OF
things will continue for some time.
with such a demand for labor. wage
are necessarily high. The high wages
mean liberal purchases on the part of
the laboring men and their families,
and the retailers profit by 1t. They in
their turn make large sales for the
wholesalers and the increased demands
on the wholesalers make more bust
ness for the manufacturers, and so
the wheel of prosperity goes around.
The description of the state of affairs
in Duluth reveals only a few links in
the endless chain by which the pro-
tective tariff brings prosperity to the
whole American people.
