The Lace Curtain Industry.

A recent issue of the "Grand
Army Journal" of Gouverneur, N.
Y, contains an interesting descrip-
ton and illustration of an extensive
plant now being installed at that
town for the manufacture of lace
curtains. Under the Protection of
the Dingley law this industry ought
to expand steadily and rapidly. 1t
is time we stopped freighting raw
cotton to Europe and freighting
back the finished product. Given
such an honest and efficient admin
istratlou in the customs service as
will insure the fair and correct val
uation of competing goods from
abroad, there can be no question of
the building up in this country of a
great and profitable industry that
will employ mauy thousands of male
and female operatives in the manu-
facture of lace curtains and en-
broideries. Economist.

The Workinoman's Protector.

The depositors of New York saw
ings banks increased their money
power by sixty million dollars dur
ing the year 1902. The greater
portion of this, of course, represents
the surplus wages of New York
workingmen. The percentage OF
savings among the wage earners OF
Americas chief city will obtain
throughout the country, and is an
irrefutable argument for the pros
perity which the Protective Tariff
has brought to wage earners. Never
before IN the history of this nation
have the laboring masses been en-
abled to save so much money above
all expenses in a single year, and
this in spite of the increased cost OF
living, about which so much has
been said. Every workingman in
this country should get his coat of
to fight for the maintenance of the
Protective Tariff, and to knock the
Democratic knockers who hope and
pray and work for a return to nat
ional disaster. Houston (Texas)

Evidences of Prosperity.

The season of prosperity which
began when President Mckinley,
soon after his inauguration, called a
special session of Congress to restore
the Protective Tariff, not only con-
tinues but steadily improves. Not
day passes that news does not come
of some increase of wages affecting
large classes of men, or of the in
auguration of new enterprises or the
enlargement of old ones, giving en-
lai ged opportunities for profitable
employment. Most of these in
creases in wage scales are brought
by conferences between employers

She erected buildings and improved
the property, expecting to make 1t
her future home. But in 1868 this
property was seized by the Govern
ment for military purposes and to
this day the Government has never
paid a cent for it.
Mrs. Fremont has died, after liv-
ing for years on a small pension and
now her daughter lives in want with
this glorious Government owing
her modest little fortune, simply
because we so soon forget. 1t would
be we'll for our Congressman to for
get their political chickering's and
sparring for position long enough
to discharge this simple act of duty,
and SO far as it can be done, make
amends for the great injustice that
has been done this illustrious and
patriotic family.
The treatment they have received
at the hands of the Government for
which General Fremont rendered so
many years of arduous and perilous
duty is black line across the fair
page of our history and can never
be erased. We would like 10 see
the closing years of this daughters
life rendered comfortable by Con-
gress doing its duty in the matter.

What Can He Add?

The country Is enjoying just the
prosperity which Governor Dingley
and the Ways and Means Committee
promised. The Republican party
has delivered the goods. Every
factory Is running on full time.
Money is steady and in good de-
mand. Our exports are large.
Wages are high and becoming high

conditions by any kind of reciproc-
ity that surrenders part of our own
market?-Des Moines "Capital.

and employees, which is a most
hopeful sign of the times. In few
cases the increases are made volun-
tarily by employers, in few they
are the result of strikes or contro-
versies of an unpleasant though less
costly nature. SO long as present
conditions prevail it seems probable
that troubles involving temporary
suspension of business and conse-
ouent loss to both sides, with more
or less damage to the public welfare,
will grow few, or perhaps even
cease altogether.
Yesterday it was announced that
the a, 900 bricklayers of Chicago
had secured general advance of 40
cents per day by conferences with
representative of the contractors.
The new scale, which advances the
rate OF pay to 60 cents per hour, is
to stand for three years. Could the
same reasonable method of arrang-
ing wage schedules prevail in all en-
pigments we might look forward
with confidence to a continuance of
the present prosperous era for an
indefinite period.
At present there are no indica-
tons of an interruption in the pres
ent rate of progress. So far as can
be foreseen there is not likely to be
any till attempt is made again to re-
peal those salutary laws which make
our prosperity possible Seattle

The Senate's Extra Session.

The call which has just been Is
sued for an extra session of the Sen
ate is the Presidents answer to the
obstructionists who have been hold
ing up that chamber for the past
month or two. The earliest of these
offenders was M. Quay and his cor
poral's guard of Republicans and
the great body of the Democrats.
QUAY may or may not have been
sincere in his attempts to admit to
statehood two communities that
were untitled for it, and to thus add
four to the number of Democratic
vntes IN the Senate, two to that
party's poll in the House, and six to
Its tally in the electoral college.
The chances are that he was not
sincere in that pretense, tor although
the Democracy is very far IN the
minority in the country at large, the
last thing that any public spirited
American ought to wish for is to
add a single one to that party's vote
anywht re.
The most persistent and pernic-
ious of the obstructionists, OF
course, is Morgan of Alabama. HIS
attempt to nullfy the work of Con-
gress in the Panama canal matter
has not only delayed the ratlhca-
ton Of the isthmian waterway treaty.
and thus brought the aspirations OF
the people to naught, but it has
postponed other needed legislation.
In the extra session Morgan will be
allowed by the Senate to talk him.

Why This Neglect?

About our earliest recollection OF
hero worship was, when boy, the
name of John c.. Fremont was on
every tongue, and every boy in the
land had read of his hazardous Jour-
ney and explorations in the Rocky
Mountains and on the Pacific coast,
among the savage grizzlies and more
savage men. Then General FIRE.
mont held a warm place in the hearts
of the American people and no one
ever supposed that he would spend
his last days in disgrace and his
widow would die almost in want,
while his daughter, now an old lady,
is absolutely living on charity.
On account of an error in one OF
the departments at Washington, the
records showed that General FIRE.
mont owed the Government a large
amout of money. The General felt
the sting keenly but never could sue,
coed in getting his accounts proper
lly audited until a short time before
his death. In 1860 Mrs. Fremont,
who was a daughter of the famous
Missouri statesman. Thos. Benton
bought a fine tract of land in Cali
fornia for which she paid $40, oos
