Tariff Wool And Shoddy Tariff.


CONGRESSMAN Grosvenor has dis

can manufacturers who make
shoddy goods and call them wooden
goods. The people buy these goods for
what they pretend to be and discover
after few weeks of wear that they
have been cheated. Congressman eros
Venor sympathizes WITH them, and has
introduced a bill to, compel the men
who sell garments which are a quaint
and curious mixture of cotton, shoddy.
mungo and wool extract, blended with
little fresh wool, to label these gar

with their eyes open and not be under
the impression that they are buying

The practice of deceiving customers
as to the goods they buy cannot be
defended, but if Congressman Grosve-
nor's bill should pass and shoddy goods
be labeled as shoddy it would be well
to add few explanatory words to lei
customers know why about all the So

more wool and less cotton and shoddy

much. 1t is expensive because Con-
gresham Grosvenor and several other
Ohio gentlemen are resolved that there
shall be high duty on wool for the
benefit of American wool growers, who
do not and cannot produce that article
in sufficient quantities to meet the
home demand. The manufacturer of
shoddy clothing makes it to meet the
demand of those who cannot pay the
high prices which must be asked for
all-Wool goods. The responsibility for
shoddy goods does not rest wholly on
the manufacturer. Congressman Gros-

ton and persuade the king and com
mons to omit the offensive part Of it
concerning Catholics But it is doubt
full if the English Catholics will inter-
fere or offer protest. They are as much
the lickspittles OF monarchy as any
! scullion in the kings kitchen or any
varlet in uniform. No Catholic peer
will absent himself from the coronation
by reason OF the offensive oath: no,
not so long as prayers are offered up
in the Catholic part of Westminster
for the success of British arms in
South Africa.
This being true, what reason
have we in these United States
for protest in a matter that does
not concern us as Catholics or citizens?
AS Catholics-because no matter
what King Edward may utter in the
oath in denunciation of our religion and
abuse of its principal article of faith
has not the weight OF a feather in
overcoming truth, and counts no more
against us than the outpourings of
Margaret Sheppard. Rather does the
insult rebound to the injury of the Prot

cause Edward is an English king and
we are not his subjects. 1t is his show.

British
Therefore. We will not join with
portion of the Catholic press in arous- /
ing sentiment against the sending of
an ambassador from this country TO |
in the coronation ceremony |
because of the offensive oath alone.
But we can and will unite with Ameri-
can citizens in urging the president to
withdraw the appointment, on the
score that the presence of an ambassa-
Tor at such a time is in violation of
American tradition and debasing to
American manhood.

In the message concerning Cuba sent
to congress last week President Roose-
Welt spoke of the new relations with
Cuba. which should be broadened and
strengthened by wise and benefcent
legislation, aiming to stimulate the
commerce between the two countries"
Monday the committee on ways and
means voted to report a bill TO reduce
the duties on Cuban imports 20 per
cent This is a step, though an made
quate one, in the direction of that
wise and beneficent legislation" re-
ferred TO by the president Unques-
tionably the president would like TO
see longer step taken in that direc-
ton, but the wise man, when he can
not get all he desires, accepts all he
can get. The ways and means COM
mittee bill probably will be taken up
in the house next week It will pass
that body. but the beet sugar men are
Boosting that it will come to grief in
the senate. Two Salt Lake papers have
ceased their senseless warfare on the
Cuban reciprocity proposition and ac
cepted Bishop Cutters statement that |
a more generous reduction even than |
the one proposed for Cuba could not |
harm the beet sugar interests of Utah. !

time after the inspiring news OF Me-
thuen's defeat and capture, and it was
only natural that the envoy should
draw such an optimistic picture. Did
he express himself in any other way,
he would not be Boer. even if in his
own mind he was convinced that his
countrymen were prolonging hope
less struggle.
! Since that glorious victory of De-
larey at Klerksdorf other minor en-
gagements have taken place in which
Boer and Briton were successful. The
1 latter recaptured the two guns taken
from them at Klerksdorf besides hun
dred or more prisoners. The British
loss in killed and wounded was as ten
to one of the Beers, but that does not
count alongside the guns. N the cold
computation of losses in this Boer war,
a gun is worth regiment of British
infantry. The capture and imprison-
ment of hundred burghers compen-
safes for the loss of a whole British
division when the fighters in this
unequal conflict are compared.
There can be no more than couple
Of thousand Beers left TO continue the
light against the quarter of million
OF the enemy, and at any day now we
are liable to hear that half of that lit
tie army of patriots are hemmed in
by the blockhouse Gordon and cut off
from escape. That means that they
must die fighting or surrender. In
either event it puts the Boer forever
out of action
Under all these circumstances, it is
best that the Beers accept terms upon
some basis of provincial autonomy. The |
acting president of the Transyaal and |
the president of the Orange Free State,
according to dispatches from South At
RIGA, are now in conference with the
Boer commanders in the field. They |
were escorted thither by convoy of |
British cavalry, it being understood
that they had some proposal from either
Kitchener or the British home govern
nent. What decision may be reached
S left to conjecture. But it is certain
hat the British people are as anxious
low for peace as they were strenuous
before for jingoism. The humiliation
'ver Methuen'sj capture, the generous
treatment accorded the British general
" Delarey, who released him, all have
lad a marvellous effect upon the Brit
sh mind and sobered it to reason.
There are other reasons equally
trong why the British people should
esire peace. Their treasury has been
rained Their prestige has languished
heir Indian empire is imperilled. Their
ing desires peace, above all things, to
rown the glory of his coronation. The
'oers have selected an suspicious time
make terms with the enemy; yet If
nose terms are short of anything but
he same freedom enjoyed by colonists
Great Britain, it were better that
he burghers die fighting rather than
ear the chains which the conqueror

fenced the other day to one year in
the penitentiary for purloining the
sacred volume. This does not argue
that hentuckians value the Bible any
more than they value a key of whisky
or any other article of merchandise.
1t simply shows that they uphold the
majesty of the law in Furnishing every
form of theft. To prove it, after the
judge sentenced the deaf mute to a
years imprisonment, he was the first
TO pass the hat for a contribution
among the court officers for the pur-
pose of purchasing a bible and pre-
senting it to the prisoner.
This incident in all it's qualifications
