Appeal by the Coopers.

A communication was read also from the
Coopers' International Union, asserting that
the coopers employed by a big brewing
concern in Milwaukee, Wis, are on
strike because the company refused to sign
the coopers' agreement, which was submit
ted to them May 1. 1t was further stated
that the company has been declared I'M
fair by the Coopers' International Union
and Endorsed by the Milwaukee Federated
Trades Council, the Trades Union Label
League and Allied Printing Trades Council.
The communication was received and
placed on file. 1t was stated that it would
be best to adopt this course, as the brew
ing company referred to is in communica
ton with the officers of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor in this city relative to the
matter, and it is possible the questions at
issue may be amicably adjusted in the near
future.
Local Union, No. u.s. Bakers and Confec-
TONERS Union, also sent letter to the c.
L. u, which was read extending their
sincerest thanks and everlasting gratitude
to the latter body for their efforts in union
izing the several pastry establishments in
Washington.

FATHER OF THE TRUSTS.


That the tariff is the father of the
trusts has been asserted by Mr.. Have
meyer, but 1t has been disproved. That
prosperity was the father OF the trusts
mas also been asserted. Prosperity has
been the cause of the organization of a
large number of trusts. but it Is the
enemy of trusts hal attempt to ad-
vance prices and restrict the price of la
Dor. This has been illustrated in the
past few months to the satisfaction of
all who have kept posted in regard to
the progress of trusts and combina-
lions. No sooner than an Industrial
combination has attempted to advance
prices beyond a reasonable profit than
competition has sprung up. When
good lines" prevail capital is on the
alert for opportunities for Investment,
and when any combination like the
l'igar trust begins to make large prof
It's by advancing prices. this capital
Is available for the organization of
competing corporations, which bring
down prices to a reasonable basis.
In the hard times brought about by
the Wilson free trade law the trusts
enjoyed immunity from such competi-
ton, for there was no money to invest
in the building OF competitive mills
and factories.
Then the trusts easily controlled the
markets. while now at the first evidence
of unusual profits there springs up a
competitor which serves as a balance
wheel to prices.
These facts show that hard times are
the best aid to trusts. and that neither
the tariff nor prosperity are to be held
responsible for the crimes that are
committed in the names of the trusts.

DUR LUMBER TRADE.
How the Tarin Has Thrown Open New



It is admitted that the farmers are
more prosperous now than in any pre-
vious year of the decade. This state
ment or fact is resented by the free
traders, who insist that the prosperity
of the farmers is in no way related to
the tariff and that the heavy sales or
exports of agricultural products are
not necessarily an index to the pros
peVity of the country at large. But II
the farmers are prosperous they are
heavier purchasers than when farming
is depressed. They purchase more ag-
r%icultural implements. more clothing,
more organs and pianos, more furni-
ture for their houses, and more build
ing materials for new houses, and in
so doing contribute to the demand that
induces activity in all manufacturing
establishments.
N an interview published in this
newspaper recently it was shown that
the tariff on Canadian lumber opened
New England and other sections to
American lumber manufacturers. 1t
was shown also that in spite of the ad-
vance in prices farmers and others are
doing so much more building that
there is a greatly increased home de-
mand. In addition to this 1t was
stated that the foreign demand for
American lumber was never so great
as now. Most of the lumber shipped
to Europe now is sold before 1t reaches
the point of consignment, and prices
of American lumber have advanced
from 50 to Sc per 1000 feet in the last
two years. The tariff on Canadian
lumber threw open the New England
markets to western lumbermen and
prices advanced. At the same time
new markets in Europe were opened
to American lumber and prices ad-
vanced there. These facts tell their
story-Chicago Inter Ocean.

by removing the high tariff" says
the New York journal, "the power OF
the trusts would be greatly curtailed
and competition could no longer be re-
stricted. Neither the producer nor the
consumer would be forced to contribute
to capital unjustly." No doubt, so far
as Americans are concerned, for the
contributions would go to foreign capi-
tai. which is employing pauper labor.
Even with the evils made by the trusts,
they are a thousand times less than
the results of free trade. A COMPARE
son OF present condition, with a large
number OF rusts in operation. with the
terrible effects of free trade on the peo-
pie Of this country. will speedily con-
vince any reasonable man that we
much prefer the trusts than to re-
strieting or even abolishing them by
any such remedy, which would be as
fatal to our national prosperity as 1t
would be to the trusts.-Tacoma

A consular report to the state de-
partment contains some interesting
facts about a new French drink called
"Piquette." 1t is brewed from low
grade American dried apples, includ-
ing skins, cores. worms, etc. together
with r%aisins. and as the brew acquires
through fermentation just enough of
alcohol to give it a ~piquant taste, but
not enough to intoxicate the drinker,
it is becoming very popular among
Frenchmen. Last year they drank
60, 600 900 gallons of Piquette at . cents
a glass.
1t is said that the French people
have taken kindly to the new tipple,
because of the vast amount of adulter-
alton practiced in the production of
cheap French clarets, and that Piq-
uette, being too cheap to be adulter-
ated, is steadily growing in favor.
Frenchmen do not like to be poisoned
in their drink. 1t is only Americans
who persist in preferring deleterious
decoctions bearing foreign labels to
the pure and wholesome wines Of
American makes. They would rather
drink foreign stuff, real or alleged,
drugs and all, than %patronize a perfect
ly honest and in all ways a better arti-
Gle made in America. Some day Amer
icaL wine drinkers will wake up to the
folly of this sort of thing.

There is prosperity in the country,
but unfortunately it is confined to the
men with money. Those without it
have seldom. as a whole, been worse
off. Even if they are employed the
cost of living is great, so d%ispropor-
toned to the scale of wages paid that
they find it almost impossible to make
ends meet. These men begin to anx-
iously ask what is to become OF them.
-McLeansboro Times.
We are sorry to hear hat the labor
ing men of McLeansboro are in such a

In fact, 1t is hard to get hands when

cality in the state, and we can't see
what Is the matter with McLeansboro.

GOVERNMENT REVENUES.
Splendid Showing OF the DingIey Law
C~onfounds Free Traders.

Splendid Showing of tho Dingley Law
Confounds Free Trader.
At the risk of appearing to display
excessive brutality toward a foolish
and ignorant contemporary, we invite
attention to the government finances
Tor September. The revenues have been
so large that the month probably will
show a surplus of 1000. 900, and the
first quarter of the fiscal year a sur
plus of more than 50, 600 600.
Possibly our readers may recall that
at the end of July, the first month of
the fiscal year, we took the New York
World to task for the most remark
able exhibition of stupidity about gov
eminent finances or the most reckless
perversion OF facts which We had OBJ
served in a long time. What the
World did was to take the July def
lett, and, using that as a monthly
average OF deficit, figure out and SOL
EMMY predict for the fiscal yea a def
lett of more than 500, 000. 900. At that
time we explained to our Ignorant con-
temporary hat July deficits always
were enormous owing to the excessive
expenditures which the government is
compelled to make in the opening
month of Its business year. Also, we
warned that Democratic organ, which
is the fercest enemy of the Dingley
tariff and the most ardent champion
Of Aguinaldo. that the July showing
was in reality a very fine one. as the
deficit of that month was smaller than
1t had been for many years and that 1t
BODIED well for the future.
The September figures show whether
we were right or not, and they teach so
emphatic a lesson that we are hoping
that even papers SO reckless or ignor-
ant as the World may bear 1t in mind
when discussing the tariff. Federal
reveT ues and other questions of gov
eminent and administration. Accord
ing to the World, we should have had
for September a deficit of more than
IS, 900, 900, and for the quarter just end
Ing a deficit of more than $25. 900, 900.
The facts which hit the World in the
pit Of the stomach are that we shall
have for September a surplus of 81 ,00O,-
300, and for the first quarter a surplus

of whom Colonel Bryan was wont to
make facetious remarks a short time
ago, is becoming t~olerably well known

When the leading Bryan organ of Ar
kansas comedies that prosperity has
come 1t may be taken as a tacit confess
sion that all of Bryan's calamity
p~rophesies in the campaign of SO were
mere bosh to fool the voters. 1t also
may be taken as an honest but sly
warning to the voters of Arkansas to
prepare for the rawlings of windy cal
amity howlers of the Bryan stripe, who
will soon be abroad in the land ap-
