A STATE ORGANIZATION


The preliminary work incidental to
the organization of state association
of the merchants and manufacturers Of
Wisconsin having progressed satisfac-
torily up to the point where it becomes
necessary to hold a meeting for the
purpose of taking formal action, a cir
cular letter has been mailed to all the
local associations in the state asking
them to send representative to meet
ing to be held in Milwaukee on Sept.
8 for that purpose. The letter was
signed by Sec retary L. c. Whitney of
the Merchants and Manufacturers
association. Considerable correspon-
dence las failed to develop any opposi-
ton to such an organization, the bust
ness men who have been communicated
with being practically unanimous in
their support of the plan. which was
first proposed by President Wadhams
when the Milwaukee merchants and
manufacturers were on their last annual
business tour of the state.
1t does not require the enthusiasm of
an optimist to see benefit to the bust
ness interests Of the state in this
movement. The time when local
associations of business men were con
sidered of no advantage to city or a
section of the state passed away some
years ago. While each firm, corpora
ton, and individual business man has
his Or it's special interests that must
call for personal attention, these inter-
ests meet at many points with the in
terests of others, and combined effort
is necessary to accomplish the greatest
degree Of good.
What is true of the business interests
of a city is also true of those of the
state at large. Added emphasis is given
to this fact when it is remembered that
Wisconsin, possibly more than any
other state in the union, is blessed with
diversified natural resources. Thos e
who have taken the trouble to look over
the ground, with view to ascertaining
what those resources may be, have been
surprised at the wide range of indus
tries developed and the possibilities for
future development that are offered. 1t
is important that a knowledge of the
ma tural wealth of the state shall be
spread abroad, and state association
of merchants and manufacturers can do
much to bring about this end, but it is
still more important that the business
men of the state shall get together at
stated periods and hold summer or
winter school upon this subject. to the
end that they may post each other. An
| other important functions of the asso-
citation will be the discussion of public
questions that may demand attention,
which discussion will probably find ex-
preston in statute laws that represent
the best judgment of the business men
! of the state Milwaukee Sentinel.

REGARDING A TRIP MADE OVER THE
NEW YORK CENTRAL IN THE
MONTH OF AUGUST, CHARLES
BARTELL LOOMS WRITES:

"Allow me to tell you what a pleasant
trip had over your line. With a good
book and with the country that lies out
side the window panes to look at and the
characters that sit alongside the same
panes to study and the thought of the
dining car, travelling is such a pleasant
thing that wonder the whole world
does not travel all the time.''

Voting Against Prosperity.

Weary people, those who do not
want to work, are severe against
President Roosevelt and prosperity.
One man said he was going to vote
against prosperity because he
couldn't get hands to work, and
when he did get them he had to pay
from $3.50 to So per day. He had
no such experiences in IS94-IS95
when this country was full of hun
cry men willing to work for IS cents
and 81 per day. Then there was no
work and no money to pay with.
Those were days of idleness, dis
tress and hunger, when the tramp
crop was the most stupendous thing
on Uncle Sans farm.-Braymer

Our Silk Industry.

The Treasury Bureau of Statistics
has issued a statement of the i'm
portations of manufactured and I'M
manufactured silk, which shows
how general the use of this fabric
has become in the United States,
The most interesting feature of the
statement is the exhibit of the ex-
traordinary growth during the last
decade of the American manufac-
ture of silk. During the eight
months Of the fiscal year 1899, end
ing with'February, the value of the
raw aterialimported was $I7,I9o,-
319, and during the corresponding
period of,f9o3 the value of the i'm
ported raw silk was $3S,
During the same eight months of
1892 the value of the manufactures
of silk imported was sa1,69z4S5,
and for the corresponding period of
1903 it was sas,47a,76I. The value
of the raw1silk imported more than
doubled, in these eleven years, in
dicating like progress in the domes-
tic silk Industry, while our imports
of manufactured silk in the same
period Increased only I6 per cent.
These results are distinctly due to
our Protective policy, which has
built up our silk industry by impos-
ing Protective duties on manufac-
lures of silk and admitting the raw
material, which we do not produce,
absolutely free of duty. In the
meantime prices have been reduced.

A Test for the Salvation Army.
From the Philadelphia Press.

From the Philadelphia Press.
The Salvation Army has decided
to begin a campaign in the feud-rid-
den counties of Kentuck. and test
the efficacy of the Gospel to cure
the peculiar conditions existing
there. The movement will start
late in August, when a series OF
meetings will be held in Jackson,
Breathitt county, the scene of the
Marcum murder and trial. 1t will
not be an ephemeral effort, as per-
manent stations are to be establish
ed, through which systematic and
persistent work will be carried on.
This will be the most exacting
test to which the Salvation Army
andnits methods have yet been sub
iected. Heretofore the efforts OF
this organization have been direct
ed chiefly to the reformation OF the
dwellers in the slums of cities. The
poor, the vicious and the Ignorant
are the classes that have engaged
he army's attention-classes whose
intellects have been dull led by want,
by crime and by envir oment. In
dealing with these the Salvation
Army has achieved some notable
triumphs and proved the worth
of the organizations method an
persistence.
But an entirely different class will
be met when the Salvationists begin
to deal with the Kentucky mount
aineers. AS far as book learning is
concerned, they are probably more
ignorant than the jewellers in the
slums. But in other respects they
are vastly superior. Their free and
resisted manner of life, and con :
slant contact with nature, have
sharpened their intellects and dis
clplined their faculties in a way
that city people can hardly appreci-
ate. Their code of morals is also
entirely different from that held by
the residents of slums. The latter
rarely go to church and acknowledge
no form of.religion. But the Ken
lucky mountaineer is strict attend
ant at church. He may have no
conscientious scruples about assassi-
mating a neighbor who belongs to
the opposite faction, but he would
believe that his eternal salvation
was imperiled If he did not appear
In his pew on Sunday.
1t will be interesting, tnen, 10
watch the contact between the free
and the Salvation
Army and see whether results as
fruitful follow as have appeared in
cities. The movement can hardly |
fail to benefit the mountaineers. 1t
will place them in touch with new
element, and their active minds
must respond to the new conditions.
And if these effort of the Salvation
SITS are seconded by the introduc'
non of the conveniences OF civiliza-
ion an encouraging change may
ioon appear in the backward situa-
ion now existing in the mountains
Of Kentucky.
