COTTON MANUFACTURERS
COMPETITION OF AMERICAN MAR
KETs ATTRACTING ATTENTION.
Some Of the Thjnas the Foreign Fabric
Maker Must Overcome to Compete
with American Product.

tsncclal Correspondence Of The Post)
WASHINGTON. November 13-Ihe compe-
tilion of American cotton manufacturers
in the markets of the world is attracting
attention among the great cotton manufac-
turing countries Of Europe, as is Indicated
by the following extracts from paper
recently read at n meeting Of British cot
ton manufacturers by the British CONNER
cial agent in the United States, The pa
per itself was considered SO important that
portions of it we're forwarded to the com
mercial Intelligence branch of the board
of trade of London, and that body an-
nounces that it may be examined by those
Interested 'any day between the hours OF
10 a. m. and p. m,
Extracts from this discussion of Amerl-
can cotton manufacturing have been re
ceived by the treasury bureau OF status
tics as follows
Speaking broadly, the standard makes
of American cotton fabrics may he sold to
a limited extent In most foreign countries
and in some few markets they can he as
posed of in considerable volume-notaoly
China and McXico--howeyer, 1t can be pos
itlvcly stated that in the greater number OF
foreign trade centers our goods are too
high in price due principally to the tact
that they are pure sized l. e.. they are

why rhls change Of rune?

why infS SnanBe OF lun6
The Dover State Sentinel, chief Of
the Addiols Republican organs in Della
ware, prints the following as the lead
ing editorial in this weeks issue;
In order to begin the next campaign,
the Republican voters should unite and
form one Republican party. Let the
chairmeu OF the two Republican organi
cations sign joint call for common
primary and a convention 10 June, for
one party in name, in emblem, and In
organization. No Republican can object
reasonably 10 the Republicans of this
State governing themselves by majority
ruc in Under endent Representative and
Senatorial diatticts under tho Consti-
tuition, Those that do object will for
ever abandon NIL claim to consistency,
and all further argument on this ground.
There has bean good deal OF talk as
TO maIorities by both sides. Let both
factions put NJ or shut up" to use u
potent aud quite. conv incins phrase of
certain hard headed specimens of the
genus homo.
Now since the humiliatiug reputation
of the Addioks Republicans by Presi-
dent Roosevelt in the appointments of
postmaster and collector CT the port for
Wilmington, the editorial course Of the
AddiclSs Republican organs has been
Just the opposite to that indicated in the
above extract. They were going to cut
loose absolutely from the Regular Re.
publicans defeat both tho latter and
the Democrats, and make the State
their political possession.
What has caused such change 10
"come DER the spirit OF their dresmy'
Can it be due to discovering what they
should have realized from the first
that Governor HUM would not become
their disrerutable tool in aiding the
scheme to convert the Democratic voters
assistants for the next election into
an Addicks Republican vote buy ing
bureau?

RURAL TEACHERS INSTITUTES.
Sentiment IN Favor of Holding the Annual
Sessions In Wlin,ingion,

Sentiment In Favor of Holding the Annual
Sessions In Wilmington.
The unpleasant feature of the recent
session of the New Castle County
Teachers Institute, at Middletown- an
exceedingly cold hnll--hns been the
subject OF much discussion ever since by
the teachers and many OF their friends,
the outcome OF which is pronounced
sentiment 10 favor of holding the annual
meetings IN Wilnin gton, During all
three of the days while the institute
was IN sessii n at Middletown the Opera
ilouse auditorium, In which the meet.
ings we're held, was so cold that many
of the teachers were compelled to sit
with thaif wraps en- all the time and
then were uncomfortable, and several
contracted colds in addition. Superin.
tendent ID. Is. Jones, the presiding
officer, and several CT the speakers
alluded publicly to the uncomfortable
atmosphere in the building, aud had it
not been for tha fact that the pro.
gramme was OF unusual interest and
there was general desire to hear all
of the sneakers it is likely that many
of the teachers would not have al TENDED
after the first days unpleasant ex-
psrience.
II is said that there. was fire in the
heaters each day and that the caretaker
did everything in his power to neat the
place, but be that as it may, the place
was cold and uncomfortable.
Those who favor holding the insti
tutes in Wilmington point out several
good reasons for making the change.
In the flrst pace, there are nun Der
OF good halls which could be secured
for the purpose, and the evening enter
tainne would undoubtedly draw we'll
as they would be open to The pubic.
And in the second place, n large pro-
portion OF the teachers, it is be .ieved,
belong in or nearer Wilmington than
near any other town in the county, and
it would give them an opportunity to
spend each night at homo Quite a
number live in the city and others live
at other places reached by trolley,
which is an advantage over the towns
further down the county. Those who
do not live 10 or near " ilmingson would
lind ample hotel accommodations.
1t is likely that concerted move
ment in the direction Of making q
change will be ineugurated among the
teachers and that they will bring the
matter formally to the attention of
Superintendent Jones. Some of the
teachers would also like to see the
institutes held at some other time in
the year than 10 December. Under the
present arrangement the institutes are
followed vesy closely by the Christmas
holidays, which brings the two sections
of inid-winter vacation very near
together. IL has been suggested that
the time be changed either to the early
part of November or the latter part OF
February.

A poor Policy to pursue.

Referring to the laxity in tax col.
leotIons IN Kent county, the Mil
ford Chronicle advances this ex-
PLANTATION: "That the county Demo.
cratic leaders, last spring, advised
Democratic collectors to hold back
county money until the last possible
time, that Republican Levy Court
might be embarrassed for cash, and
thereby make capital for Democrats.
After this advice many collectors ceased
the + effort to COLLECT taxes and the
Levy Court is now rounding up the
delinquent collectors, !"
II the Democratic leaders gave such
advice --Hnd we doubt it exceedingly
then they Sere very foolish advisers,
and the collectors were equally foolish
if they acted upon it.
But even if the Chronicles charge is
true, it will not impair the RESPONSE
bility Of the present Levy Court. That
body should continue to 'round up''
the collectors until they SQUARE their
duplicates or return error lists that may
with justice be allowed. the collection
of taxes, at least, should be attended
to on plain business basis, without
any resort to the political complications
that too cfien are permitted to inter
fere with other features of public
business.

Where the People Arc to Blame.

"HSfS tne rsople Ars TO Blame.
1t is stated that several schools in
Sussex county have been closed on
account of the failure OF tho districts
In whiuh they are located to receive
the State appropriation for the current
year.
The responsibility for this grave evil
primarily rests upon the Legislature for
psass ng school law that was faulty
in such an Important particular as to
throw doubt upon the authority Of
the State Treasurer to pay tie school
dividend to such districts as had rot
raised by taxation fos this year the
amount specified iE the new law.
But the direct responsibility, in our
opinion, rests upon thu people of the
districts thus deprived Of school facili.
ties. The State treasurer had expressed
his willingness to pay the dividends,
ithstnnding the apparent inhibi-
tion contained 10 the law-and We feel
sure he had legal right to do So but
was restrained by the protests OF his
bondsmen, to which he ve-y properly
gave heed. But he offered to pay tho
dividends to all the doubtful districts
il tho people of such districts would
give him bond Of Naturalization to
save him harmless should the next
Legislature declaie that he had acted
unlawfully.
1t would have been small matter for
a few responsible men iu each district
to furnish the required bond, as the
amount Of the liability thereby assumed
would have been slight. The failure
to do this indicates lack of public
spirit in these districts that is any.
thing but commendable.
