Have Used American Goods.

There is bitter complaint among the
manufacturers of wooden goods in Eng
land that Americans have practically
ceased to buy of them. Under the Will
son low-duty tariff we purchased wool
en- manufactures in one year to the
value of $40 .162. 992 With the freight
and other charges added these goods
cost the American consumers $50 900,
600, and the profit went into the pock-
cts of the foreign manufacturers. I'm
der the present tariff law we purchased
but $13.S31 1867. Is it strange that the
foreign manufacturers should grumble
at the loss of this trade?
We have used all the wooden goods
We needed. we have found no fault
with the quality, and the prices have
not been unreasonable. The difference
is that we have used American goods.

Tho waee-E.rner's Share.

A dispatch from Youngstown, Ohio,
dated Nov. s. reads as follows:
AT a wage conference today be-
tween James H. Mutt, of the Iron Man
ufacturers' association, and a commit
tee representing the Amalgamated As
ISOLATION Of Iron and Steel Workers.
the wage scale for November and De-
cember was placed on a basis of 1 6-1O
cents, which makes the wages of pud-
oilers $3.50. an increase Of so cents per
ton. This is the highest price paid
for pudding since $780,"
Thus does the wage-earner come in
for his share of the general prosperity.
He has not been overlooked in the divi-
sion Of benefits. 1t is one Of the glories
Of the protective system that it always
looks after the wage-earner.

FOOLISH FALLACY.

Tho Foreign Label Regarded - .
Guaranty Of Superior Quality.
A short time ago the wife of prom
inent manufacturer desired to present
to a friend enough silk dress goods for
two costumes. A sample was shown
to the friend, and it was explained that
this sample was of domestic silks. The
friend to whom the silks were to be
presented, lady of old New England
stock, intimated that she would much
prefer to have foreign goods. The
suggestion was accepted, and the dom
or, accompanied by her friend, picked
out some silk dress goods at one of the
prominent retail shops in New York,
which were accepted by the friend,
and she was very much delighted at
the change from domestic to foreign
goods, as she thought. 1t happened that
the husband of the good lady who was
making the present was a silk manu-
facturer, and on arrival at home, when
the question had been settled, and the
foreign goods selected, he examined
SAASAAAs oAAA W q PCCul0A uol uPOu IuC
goods which had been accepted. he
showed the ladies that the alleged for
eign goods were made by his own fac
tory in this country.
Such incidents as this illustrate the
difficulties attending the introducing
OF American goods among a class of
consumers who cling to the notion that
q foreign label is a guaranty of SUI
perior quality. 1t is not inappropriate
In this connection to state the fact
that a large amount of the alleged
foreign silks sold in the stores OF
prominent cities with foreign brands
woven into the goods are made right
here in this country under the opera
lions of the Dingley tariff.

that wages are not affected by tariffs
is proposition on general principles
intended to discredit protection and not
aimed at the trusts. Here again the
American free trader stands solitary
and alone, gloomy Napoleon on an
economic st. Helena. His foreign fell
lows long ago abandoned the conten-
ton. There is at present scarcely a
shade of difference among European
their inability to compete with America
in the worlds markets. With common
accord they say it is the result of the
high wages paid American working
men, and that the establishment and
maintenance of the American standard
of wages has been made possible only
by the operation of the protective prin-
ciple. The American wage Garner has
lately had an object lesson along the
line of tariff and wages. The lesson
lasted four years, and he is not likely
to forget it."
The case against free trade as an an
tidote for trusts is pungently summed
up as follows:
THE free-trade advocate of the re-
moval of protection as trust antidote
finds himself upon the horns of a d.
lemma. Either we need protection to
hold the home market against outside
competition, or We do not need prOtec-
ton, and can get. along equally well
without it-better; our free trade
friends tell us. If we do not need pro-
lection, it's removal would be valueless
as trust antidote. If we do need pro-
lection in order to maintain our hold
upon a market with consuming ca
pacity estimated at nine billions year.

list, very different thing now and al
ways. Protectionists in the past have
known how to confront danger with
defense. They will know how to
meet the trust question at the proper
time and in the proper way. They have
never failed in an emergency; they
will not fail now. A remedy will be
forthcoming whenever the pathological
moment arrives. We all remember the
practitioner who could cure but one
disease, and who always threw the pa
tient into a fit and then prescribed for
the fit. History does not. however, re-
cord that he was invariably successful

not yet been reached. though some of

under the healthy tan which she had

H. Parker studied her face in its

annoying hair that blew across her
eyes. A great wave Of admiration for
that noble girl rose up in his breast
admiration very unlike that with
which he had heard his brilliant class

yawned H. Parker Baxter as he slam
med down the cover Of a ponderous
and gruesome medical book and turned

was complacently ticking away the
last fifteen minutes Of '9S. No other
sounds were to be heard, save the oc-

over the cobble and fagstone outside.

PRESIDENTS WESTERN TRIP.
Quiet Sunday in soux City, Ia.-Presi- dent Attends Church.

Sioux City, Ia., Oct. 15.-Sunday has
 been a quiet day for the presidential
 party. At 10 o'clock this morning the
 train was brought to the Union station
 from siding and the president and
 Mrs. Mckinley, with some members of
 the cabinet, were conveyed in carriages
 to the Forest Methodist church. AL
 though no announcement had been
 made of the presidents intention to at
 tend services at this church, the build
 ing was crowded to suffocation and
 large numbers waited outside, unable
 to obtain admission. The sermon was
 delivered by the pastor, Rev. Robert
 Bagnell.
 After leaving the church the party was conducted by members of the local committee to the Sunday school of the
 Whitfield Methodist church, where the president was presented to the school by Congressman George D. Perkins. Addressing the members of the Sunday school, MT. Mckinley said: Tn the mo- ment l shall tarry l have only time to say to this group of young people and older people, Hail and farewell and wish for all of them the realization of all that is noble in life and character under a government of high privilege and great opportunity.
 Shortly after noon the presidential train was taken from the Union station and again conveyed to a side track some five miles from the city in order to avoid the scrutiny of the large crowds which continued to throng about the depot.

The train left for the east soon after 10 o'clock The weather was in tensely disagreeabie, great quantities of lust filling the air during the morning and a heavy wind prevailing.

HANDLING OF COLCMBIA.
Captain Barr Not Alone Has Advice of
 Nat HerreshOff,

New York, Oct. 15.-There is a feeling among the Columbia people-and by this is meant the men who are manag- ing the boat-that the public has been misled to degree in regard to the handling of the American racer on race days. They feel that certain comments have been unjust in that they lead one to believe that Captain Barr is entirely alone so far as professional talent is concerned. This is quite wrong, as he has at all times at his side, for imlne- diate counsel and advice. the most skillful yacht sailor in all the world in the person of Nat Herreshoff.
 The owners and packers Of the Co., lumbia. including the amateur yachts men on board, have the utmost confi- dence in MT, Herreshoff not only as skillful designer of racers but also as a great race sailor. With Captain Charlie Barr at the wheel and Designer Ierreshoff at his side-the man who
