A TRULY GREAT CHANGE.

Marked Improvement in the Grade or
Comns and Furniture Now Demanded.
some queer facts regarding improved
business conditions are set forth by the
Canton (I1l) Register in the shape Of
an interview with travelling man
who represents three factories, one that
manufactures collins, one that makes a
speciality of tables, and another that
produces a general assortment of fur
niture. Said this commercial trav-
eler:
THE factories, though running night
and day, are away behind their orders.
Three of the largest houses on our Gus
tom list we have, for the present, quit
taking orders from, simply because we
can't fill them by the time desired
This being true, it looks as though my
services as trade solicitor will have to
be dispensed with
How do you account for this exces-
sive demand?' was asked.
Prosperity; everybody at work;
good wages; plenty of money"

demand in hard as well as in good
times % interposed Democrat
Yes, and perhaps more 50. but in
such times those of inferior quality are
the most called for-the kind that can
be more rapidly thrown together In
such times as we now have the best

What is your experience with ia

times, or in Mckinley as compared
with Cleveland times p was asked

sooner talk about than to talk about

who use store boxes and loose boards

sition to have and enjoy them. I con-
TESS, L contemplate the situation,
that I am somewhat troubled lest I be
laid off until my houses can catch up
with their orders
It will be noticed that in the differ
ence between C1eveland's reform tariff
times and Mckinley protective tariff
times the change runs to quality as
well as quantity of goods consumed.
Collins must be better than four years
ago Any old sort of burial box would
do then; it had to do; but it will not
do for people who are earning and
making more money than ever before
and who are able to afford seemly and
proper mOrtuary accessories. So must
the tables be more neat and present
able than in the times when board OR
a box had to suffice; and in the mat
ter of furniture a demand had Sprung
up for a style and quality of articles
that put to shame the cheap stuff that
found a Stinted market in the days of
the Wilson tariff All this means more
demands upon American labor, more
employment, more wages, more money
in circulation more comfort, more hap
piness- Truly the change is great

enactment of the Dingley Tariff law
has brought to the country. The head

A Fine Fiscal Record.

The January record of receipts and

ment excellent one Omittine
consideration of anticipatory payments
dQuidating the public debt by bond
purchases in advance of the maturity
of the bonds, the net excess of receiDts
over expenditures for the month was
more than $4,000. 600 The record of
customs receipts was also an excellent
one, showing more than $50, 600 900 of
receipts from this source The receipts
from internal revenue were about S22-
600, 000- 1t is matter OF surprise to
public officials that the expenditures

inue at such low figures, being less
than half what they were during the
Spanish war. notwithstanding the
maintenance OF large armies engaged
in active campaigns in the Philippines

The international Trust.

There is no tariff on automobiles.
But there is so-ca11ed automobile
trust with an authorized capital of
$4,000, 600 This would suggest that a
Protective Tariff is not sine qua
non for trusts There is another inter
esting fact in connection with the
automobile trust" 1t is that, accord
ing to report, the promoters of the
com bination purpose to unite all the
important British and American auto
mobile concerns into one organization
When trust can be formed in respect
to a product on which no tariff is i'm
posed and when, furthermore that
trust contemplates the uniting of Brit
ish and American interests into one
company. it ought to be self-evident to
all but the wi1fu11y blind that the trust
problem is utterly distinct from any
question of tariffs.

WAITING FOR DEFEAT.
How the Democrats Hope to Get Rid
of Mr.. Bryan.

of Mr.. Bryan.
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
which is not Republican, but is bitter
ly hostile to the Republican admins
tratiOn, says:
THE Bryan situation is strictly
unique The less his prospects of cleo
ton the tighter grows his grip on the
nomination. For the first time in our
political history, great party sits
Worshipfu1ly at the feet of a man and
does little or nothing to oppose a lead
ership which few believe can result in
victory
The foregoing is a fair statement OF
the situation by paper which would
delight to support any candidate who
could make a half hopeful fight upon
an anti-expansion platform. But its
zeal for Aguinaldo and its relentless
hostility to the Republican party do
not make the Springfield mugwump
oblivious to the facts which are obvi-
Gus to all except the blind followers of
MI Bryan. There is but one explana-
ton for the general acquiescence of the
Democratic leaders in Mr.. Bryan's can
didacy- With the issue before the
country they have no hopes of success
next November. Whatever the plat
form may be or whOmSOever the can
dldate may be, President Mckinley,
who has generally satisfied the coun-
try and whose administration has been
will be reelected. This fact SENS to be
conceded by leading Democrats in
most the states. The anti-Bryan men
who are prominent Democrats realize
this fact, and, realizing it, they see a
sure way to get clear of Mr.. Bryan
his silver and other heresies. They
may make little show of opposition
but they will acquiesce in Mr.. Bryan's
nomination. They do not sit wor-
shipfully at Mr.. Bryan's feet" as the
Massachusetts paper affirms, but they
are waiting patiently to see Mr.. Bryan
rejected as the party dictator by an
other defeat When he is again de-
feated they believe the Democracy will
accept men of brains as Leadership

FAVORS FREE WOOL,
BRYAN HATES PROTECTION AS
MUCH AS EVER.
Declares He Stands he stood Six
Years, An UnconpromisIns Opponent
of any Tariff for the Benefit the
American Sheep Grower.

Last week the wool market report of
the Commercial Bulletin contained the
following paragraph:
THE Salt Lake City correspondent
of Hecht, Lehman & Co, of this city,
writes that Mr. VIM J. Bryan, in his
recent visit to Utah, assured leading
dealers and growers in private CONVEX
sation that he had changed his mind
on WOOL and that though he would
consent to a reduction of duties, they
could rest assured that he never would
sign a free-wooI BILL
We desire to repeat the para graph,
and are perfectly prepared to furnish
the names of the persons who were
given the assurance that the wool tar
if would not be an issue and that the
prOtectiOnist who wished to vote for
free silver might do so without fear
that the beneficent duty would be re-
moved from wool by Mr. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan now makes this pub1ica-
ton unnecessary, however, by a public
pledge, which, of course, recalls all pri-
vate or personal assurances as to his
attitude on wool. In an interview
cepted as authentic by such free wool
authority as the Boston Herald, he is
quoted by that paper, among others, of
Jan. II as follows:
When asked regarding the report
that he had changed his views on the
matter of free wool importation, and
had asserted that, in behalf of western
dealers and manufactures, he would.
if elected president, favor tariff on
wool, Mr.. Bryan stated most e1nphati-
ca1ly that he had m ade 10 statement
whatever to the effect that he had
changed his former views on the ques-
ton
These are Mr.. Bfyan's former
views as expressed the toor of
congress, March 16, 1892
ct fhnrPfnrR Mr. Chairman dPnOIno
as faI1acious, unworthy of consider
alton, the only reason chat can DE given
in support of a tariff wool, a
protective tariff and Cor protective pur-
poses''
And on Jan. 10, 1894:
1T is immaterial in my judgment
whether the sheep grower receives any
benefit from the tariff or not Wheth-
er he does does not, whether the
wool manufacturer collects a compen-
satory duty from the consumer OF
wooden goods and pays it over to the
wool grower, or collects and keeps it
himself. or doesn't collect it at all, and
therefore doesn't need it, am for free
WOOL
1t is idle for Mr.. Bryan's friends in
Utah or the other Western states long
er to seek the votes of wool growers,
as they have been doing, Whispered
assurances that the free trade plank
of the Chicago platform is not an IS
sue.
Free wool is an issue in 1900
Mr.. Bryan has made it SO by his own
public utterance at Columbia, Miss,
Jan. Is, 1900 The private whisper
in Salt Lake City is overridden by the
public declaration again publicly en-
dorsed: Il am for free WOOL
A Bryan victory thus means not only
surrender and free silver, but a drop to
the old free wool basis of % cents a
secured pound for ordinary fine me-
dunn Utah wool The Western wool
grower will do well to ponder this and
to cut out Mr.. Bryan's interview for

FUSION REFORM.
State Auditor Dunn Gives 1t
Some Hot Shot.

In 1867 it saddled upon the young
state bonded debt of $2,275,OOO.
In 1891 it added $l3,175.99 to the
cost of the legislative session and in
creased the state tax levy fve-tenths
of mill.
In 1900 the state grain inspection
cost $50, ,5O7 AZ more than under the
last Republican administration; vet
there We're more cars inspected in
1893.
The binding twine plant at Still
water cost $65s, ,l0061 for the year
ending July 81, 1900, as against $780,
5@.l6 for the year ending July 81,
1899.
The reports show that the twine
pla.t had on hand, at the end of the
season, l, 1859 lbs of sisal for
which it paid almost three cents above
the market price and, that although
it sold twine to the farmers at two or
three cents more than jobber's prices,
it cannot dispose of this surplus stock
except at loss.
The per capita cost of state institu-
t'ons steadily decreased under Repub-
llcan management, but when the 'sre-
form" came into power at the close of
1893, this decrease stopped and there
was an increase in the cost of the
charitable and correctional institu-
tions.
These statements should be kept iu
mind by our readers they are uncon-
trovertible and are a matter of state
