Odd Things.

The origin of the sentiment, "Old
wood to burn, old wine to drink, old
friends to trust, old authors to read," is
somewhat obscured. Bacon found that
Alfonso Of Aragon was wont to say in
commendation Of age that age ap-
peared to he best in these four things.
John Webster Q63S) went further in
declaring, "Old wine wholesomest, old
pippins toothsomest," and that "old
wood burns brightest, old linen washes
whitest." Goldsmith in ''She Stoops to
Conquer" says. "Old friends, old times,
old manners. old books, old wine"
There are many variant quotations.

has been declining rapidly as compar.
ed with other important though less
protected industries and as compared
with our increasing population. The
value of our woolen manufactures has
not half kept pace with our population
since 1890 or 1880. The per capita
value Of woolen goods produced in this
country is 25 per cent less now than in
1870, the decline being from $5.17 per
capita in 1870 to $3.50 in 1900. The
per capita consumption of wool, in
cluding that in imported woolens, de-
clined from S.52 pounds in 1880 and
SIG in 1890 to 597 in 1900. During
the three years of free wool. 1895. 1896
and 1897, the per capita consumption
Of wool averaged 9.59 pounds, but un-
der the Dingley duties during the years
since 1897 it has averaged only 5.95
pounds.
AS most Of our people are still wear
ing clothes, it is evident that they are
wearing poor and cheap clothing made
almost entirely of cotton and shoddy.
According to our last census, the nor
NAL underwear of our people, most of
which is sold as woolen goods. contains
one part wool and twelve parts cotton.
Other kinds Of goods are not much bet
ter. Shoddy and cotton clothing does
not protect the people from severe cold
in our northern states. Undoubtedly,
therefore, the Dingley duties OIL wool
and woolens are responsible for much
Of the pneumonia and other diseases of
the people as we'll as for much of the
crime committed. The doctors and un-
dertakers who treat or bury the vic
Tins Of improper clothing and the po-
licemen, judges and lawyers whose
Jobs depend upon having plenty Of
criminals are some of the benefciaries
Of taxed food and clothing.
The extortion of all kinds of trusts
compels large portion of our popula-
ton to liye in small and poorly heated
and badly ventilated quarters. Unable
to buy sufficient coal of the coal trust
or oil Of the oil trust, the poor stuff
rags in cracks to keep out the cold.
Hence the Dingley tariff law is re-
sponsible even for the bad ventilation
and vitiated air which weaken consti-
tutions and make candidates for pneu-
monia and other diseases.
One step further-by fostering trusts,
which charge monopoly prices for goods
and thus greatly diminish the quantity
Of goods consumed, the Dingley law
lessons the quantity of goods produced
and the number of workers employed
in producing goods. 1t is, then, largely
responsible for our idle mills and idle
hands.
We have seen that the Dingley law
creates trusts; that trusts put up prices
and increase the cost Of living; that
high prices cause diminished consump-
ton; that diminished consumption
closes mills and throws men out of en-
ployment; that men out Of work and
without proper food and clothing either
become criminals or contract diseases
and die. Thus have we traced the epi-
demic of disease and crime to the
Dingley tariff law. This law is curse
to at least 75,OOO,O00 of our SO,OOOOO0
people. What are the voters going to
do about it? BYRON w. HOLT.

Republican Rakeon From Panama.
When the inside history Of the seces-

will make interesting reading for those
ardent friends of the strenuous occu-
pant of the White House, who, they
claim, had no knowledge Of the con-
spiracy that Matched rebellion to Or
der when needed. The regular CORE

Chronicle in special telegram on Dec.
% said:
zone of the sensational charges Sen
ator German is prepared to make here
after is that a coterie Of New York
men subscribed a war fund to the
Panama revolutionists amounting to
100000 with the understanding that
they would be repaid tenfold from the
SIC, 100000 Panama expected to receive
and the $4OOOO,OOO which ostensibly
will be appropriated for the French
company. Senator German isesaid to
know the names of the men who ad-
vanced this money.
"He will charge in connection with
this disclosure that the fund was sub,
pcribed only after definite and positive
assurances were conveyed to the sub
scribers by responsible persons con-
nected with the administration that
substantial aid would be extended to
the revoluhonists and the republic OF
Panama would not only be recognized
by this government, but that its indie
pendence would be guaranteed as well.
Several Democratic senators will
charge in addition that the lobbyists
and promoters, who are expected to re-
ceive large share of the $4O.OOO.OOO,
have agreed to make substantial con-
tribution to the next Republican cam
paign fund. The Democratic senators
believe the story. One Of their number
said in discussing it that he had been
informed that the amount set aside for
political purposes was $5,0o0,0oo.
