The above table Is worthy Of careful
study. We have been hearing. for years,
from Democratic orators first. that free
raw materials would help the manufac-
turers, and, second, that q protective
tariff destroys our chances In foreign
markets. yet it will be seen by this table
that the importations of ARTICLES In a
crude condition for use In domestic in
,lustries" amounted, In the three years
under the Wilson free trade law. to $615,-
405.152. while in the three years under
the Dingley protective tariff they amount
to SIPS. S21 1852. Look also ut the narrow
column. which indicates the percentages
Of the total imports which these raw ma
terials form, and you will see that they
form much greater proportion Of the to-
tai imports under the Republican system
of protection than under the Democratic
system OF free trade. Why? The an
swer is simple enough. Under the Dem
ocratic low tariff, absolute free trade In
some particulars. many manufacturers
were compelled either to close their
works or reduce their output owing to
from abroad under the low tariff rates.
Hence the small consumption Of raw
material In manufacturing. This differ
ence of more than 500, 100000 In the
quantity OF raw materials imported In the
three years means a difference of several
hundred millions of dollars In the amount
OF goods manufactured and hundreds Of
millions In the amount Of money paid to
wnge earners In the various manufactur-
ing lines

JONES AND HIS COTTON BALE.


The composite chairman Of the Popu-
list Democracy, Senator Jones of Arkan-
sas, Is still resenting with considerable
heat the charge that since he is such an
important officer Of the American Cotton
Company Capital $7,000,0OO; John L.
Searles, lately treasurer of the sugar
trust, grand moguD, it must be that he
is high priest in the trust temple, or,
at least, that he is reckless, abandoned
plutocrat. TO do Mr.. Jones entire JUS
tice, we suppose that the American Cot
ton Company is-rlot vicious trust which
deserves to be destroyed, any more than
number Of other corporations of ST.
100000 capital in the hands Of former
officers Of more monopolistic trusts. Pre-
sumably the American Cotton Company
will make all the money 1t can, will make
dividends, indeed, upon Its $1,000, 900 of
stock. Mr.. John e. Searles can be trust
cd to look after a little thing like that,
even il Mr.. Jones devotes all Of his at
tention for the next three months, or for
the next three years, for that matter, to
Populist Democratic politics exclusively.
The phase Of Mr.. Jones' connection
with the American Cotton Company
which we would like him to explain Is
this, rather: How much of the $1,000
600 Of the stock Of the company has he
got how did he get it, and what did he

Manufacturers HAVE
A VERY BUSY YEAR.
Exports Under the Dingley Law
Show Vast Growth.
The Demand for Raw Material Is So
Great that Imports of Manufactur.
ers Material Have Also
Greatly Increased.

The manufacturers Of the United
States are making their greatest record
in this closing year OF the century. Busy
workshops, smoking chimneys, factories
running ON double time aud, in some
cases. the full twenty-four hours with
three shifts OF hands, are an evidence of
this; but exact proof Is found in the re-
port OF the chief of the bureau Of Stats
tics. just issued, which shows an enor-
nous increase in the importation of the
raw materials WHICH they use in manu-
featuring and an dlually enormous in
crease in the expectation Of finished man
ufactures. Importations of manufacture
ers' materials in the fiscal year 1900
were more than double those in the fiscal
year 1894 and, during the three fiscal
years in which the Dingley law has been
in operation, have exceeded, by more
than $100,000,00 the imports Of raw
materials in the three years in which
the Wilson law was in operation, while
the expectations Of finished manufac-
lures, in the three years under the Ding
ley law. have exceeded, by more than
$500, 100000, the expectations of manu-
features in the three years under the
Wilson law.
Evidence from Official Sources.
Here are the official figures showing
the importation of manufacturers ma
terials and expectations of manufactures
in the fiscal years 1895, 1896 and 1897,
all OF which were under the Wilson low
tariff, contrasted with those during the
fiscal years $685. 1899 and 1900. which
were under the Dingley tariff. The Will
son tariff, it will be remembered, went
into operation Aug. %, 1904 and the
Dinglcy tariff on July PC, 1897, so that
the fiscal years ending June 30. 1895,
1896 and 1897, were practically all with
in the operations Of the low tariff and
those OF 1893. 1890 and 1900 were prac-

give for it?. Is his name, undoubtedly
an eminent one in some quarters, used in
the board of directors as bait to catch
investors? Did Mr.. Jones himself pay
par in 'cash money" for the stock that
he holds? Is his possession of 1t, or any
part Of it, due to the fact that he Is in
0uential In the finance committee Of the
United States Senate, and by virtue Of
his position there could do his company,
or Mr.. Searles', or almost any company
OF the kind in which he or Mr.. Searles
might have an interest, very important
service at very critical time?
We have never known gentleman OF
Mr.. Jones' financial prospects to grow
rich suddenly except by some means Of
this kind. In other words, and to be
plain, 1t is fair to infer, until Mr.. Jones
denies 1t, that he Is ''it," neither on ac-
count of his cash, nor his property. nor
some invention Of demonstrated value,
but rather on account Of his pull" or his
swing. We say that 1t is fair to infer
this until Mr.. Jones denies 1t, because
Mr.. Jones, by reason Of his unjust at
tacks upon leading Republicans puts
himself very much in the public eye and
invites attack from any quarter. Mr..
Jones has no business to live in a glass
house with perfect safety IL he is going
to keep throwing such large stones.

WILKINSON COMMISSIONER.
ELECTED SATURDAY BY THE
BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Will Assume Charge of the School
Interests of the County
in June Next.

The election of county school COM
missioner Saturday resulted in Colonel
a. A. Wilkinson being unanimously
chosen for this responsible position.
Professor j. Il. Whitchard, the pres
ent incumbent, was the only other ap-
plicant, but owing to friction between
him and members of the board the past
two years he was not hopeful of re-
election. The examination of the ap-
plicants was, at the request of the
board, conducted by Superintendent
Hankins of the city schools, and both
gentlemen made highly creditable
marks.
The unanimous election of Colonel
Wilkinson is very gratifying to his
many friends. Colonel Wilkinson,
who is yet under thirty years of age,
is graduate of Emory College and the
University of Alabama, and was for
merly an educator of no little ability
and reputation. Several years ago he
gave up teaching to enter the practice
of law and has attained an enviable rep.
tation IN this profession, being at pres
ent city attorney of Dawson. Alto
gether, he is eminently qualified for
his new position, and will no doubt
make an excellent record in discharg-
ing its responsible duties.
Mr.. Whitchard, the retiring COM
missioner, has been enthusiastic and
Jealous in promoting the educational
interests Of the county, He is popular
with the teachers, nearly all of whom
signed a petition asking for his re
election, and it would have pleased
many had he been continued IN the Of
fee.
Professor Whitchard's commission
does not expire until next June, and
Colonel Wilkinson will not assume the
duties of the position until then.
