Fancy Cottons.

In n Washington dispatch to the
Philadelphia Press is given the story
of the contest which has just ended in q
decision of the United States Circuit
Court sustaining the action Of the ap-
praising department of the New York
Custom House in the matter Of yalua-
ton of and import duties upon q large
line of what are known as fancy cotton
goods. The Importance Of this decision
will at once be manifest when it is
known that hereafter an additional
duty of one and two cents per yard will
be collected upon large importations Of
cotton textiles which have heretofore
come in Mt a lower rate. Not only will
the Government revenues be increased
thereby, but the added duty will result
in a greatly increased production of
fancy cottons on American looms. Last
year, under classification and
consequent lower duties. we imported
about $9.O00,O0O in foreign values of
fancy cotton cloths, the greater portion
of which could, and with adequate du-
ties would, be woven in the United
States. The %appraising officials in New
York took up this question nearly two
years ago, and proceeded to carry into
effect the provisions Of the Dingley
Tariff law of 1897. The result, as stat
ed, was a Reconsideration md the in
crease Of duties from one to two cents
per yard. The action of the local an
praiser was confirmed by the Board of
General Appraisers, but was resisted
by the importers and by the Collector
Of the Port of New York. The case
was carried on appeal by the import
ers to the United States Circuit Court.
and in the decision just rendered the
qppraising department and the con-
.enrion in behalf of the Government are
fully sustained. In consequence of this
decision some 5000 looms will be imme-
diately converted from lower grades
and staples to the weaving Of fancy cot
ton goods, and many more looms will
follow suit. 1t is the beginning of a
great change in cotton manufacture
whereby the Northern mills will in time
devote themselves almost entirely to
the production Of the finer grades and
leave to the Southern mills the produc.
ton Of the cheaper staples. In short, It
Is the practical solution Of the problem

Iincoln,s Heart Touched


Gen. w. II. Powell, the famous West
Virginia cavalry officer, was a veritable
Cromwellian. His diary of the days
when he lay on the floor Of a dungeon
at Richmond, a wounded prisoner, and
existed for thirty-seven days on coarse
corn bread and water, having only one
bucket OF water per week for both
drinking and washing purposes, attests
his lineal descent from the Welsh peas.

Their long enduring blood" their
qualities that stood four square to
every wind that blew" cropped out IL
him in that diary not less than in the
siNty-odd engagements of the war in
which he intrepidly participated.
Gen. Powell and Bishop McCabe,
then chaplain" McCabe, were dis
missed from Richmond at the same
time. and on going to Washington were
asked by the United States Christian
Commission to attend a great meeting
and deliver the message from the pris-
oners at Richmond to President Lin.
coin. There were all the heads of the
Government, chiefs of departments,
foreign. ambassadors, justices of the
Supreme Court, distinguished soldiers
and civilians, the members of the two
houses Of Congress, the President Of
the United States and his family, beau

b hundred; all these to give their aid
and countenance to the occasion.
Gen. Powell and Chaplain McCabe
came forward by request and sang the
Battle Hymn of the Republic" and
then Gen. Powell delivered his mes

AS a special honor the President

No Fight, No Prayer.

A group of naval officers were in.
dulging the other day in "reminiscences
of the war, ut the Palmer House, Chi
cago, when one of them told the follow.
ing yarn:
early on the morning of Dec. "a;
1864" he said, admiral Porter sig.
nailed to the feet before Fort Fisher,
Get under way and follow me- The
ship to which I belonged was assigned
in the program to a position between
two ironclads close under the fort. We
anticipated hot and terrible work. The
flagship led the way, and was ap.
preaching within range, when Lieuten.
ant Commander B., of my ship, or.
dered all hands called to muster. The
brawny tars gathered aft on the quar-.
terdeck, with the officers in their usual
places, and Il commander began to
read from the prayer-book the Prayer
Before the Battle.' 1t was a solemn
moment; no n knew who or how
many of us might suddenly be ushered
into the presence of the God of Battles.
Our commander read as though he felt
1T; the whole ships company were
awed and hushed, and the throbbing Of
the engines and wash of water along
the side seemed preternaturally loud.
When about half through a signal was
reported from the flagship:
"'Come to anchor in your positions.'
"When it was read to our commander
a sudden revulsion of feeling came owe,
him. Throwing down the prayer-bool
upon the hatch, he exclaimed: We'll,
Pm not going to pray If we amt going
to fight! Pipe DOWN."

Protection Gain. Foreign Markets.

Frotectton Gains Foreign Markets,
Our increase of exports during the
fiscal year 1901 over. the preceding year
will approach $1OO,OOO,OOO. This, too,
has been done without the sacrifice of a
single job. Were our exports to Porto
Rico and the Hawaiian Islands includ-
ed, as formerly, $2O,OOo,OOO could be
added to- the above amount, which is, in
itself, very satisfactory, considering the
war in China, European retaliation"
etc. Protection gains more foreign
markets than Free-Trade, and pre-
serves o,r grand home market as well.

same locality where the uneducated
colored man raises less than fifty BUSH

of their superior knowledge and skill,
and that they come to them for pro-
