fury, with cotton within the reach
Of the multitude, that the majority
have been adequately clothed. The
heroes of the revolution were half
clad and that half was rags.
And it is one Of the interesting
ironies of history that during th.t
period, when the problem Of clothes
was supreme, both In America and
abroad, Richard Arkwright, who
invented the spinning frame, and
James Hargreaves, who invented
the spinning jenny, creations which
were to change the history of the
race, had their machines destroyed
by the enraged and half-clad popu-
lace, who feared the competition OF
these labor saving devices.
We smile at the short-sighted fol-
ly of that day, and yet the prog
ress in the use and manufacture Of
cotton will be as tremendous In the

WANTS HIGH SUGAR
TARIFF RETAINED
NcEnery, of Louisiana, Calls
Duty for Revenue Only
a Bugaboo.

Only eleven Senator's were present
when the upper house met at 10 o'clock
today with Senator McEnery Dem,
Lao, continuing his speech of yesterday
for protection of the sugar and lumber
industries
Mr. AIcEnery said ne favored a tariff
on lumber to the utmost limit because
of the Importance of the lumber bust
ness in his State The output of the
Louisiana saw mills ne estimated at
2s72.l9 feet annually, of which 90 per
cent, he declared, was shipped out of
the State. Forty-one per cent OF the
standing timber in the state was owned
by the farmers. To the lumber indus
try he attributed the remarkable
growth CT the State generally during
the last four or five years.
Protection the Remedy.
I'm the face Of this showing he con-
finueo, made possible through protec-
ton, it is time that the Democrats
abandon their absurd theory OF q. tariff
Tor revenue only and support the inter-
ests OF the United States.
II would not put tariff on sugar for
revenue only, but because Of the neces-
sity that this country become indie
down the tariff on sugar and this coun-
try would be flooded with that FROM
abroad. the manufacture Of sugar in
this country stopped, and the cultiva-
ton of cane made to cease.
with protection" the Senator de-
clared. "the industry in this country
would. before long. be supplying the
world.
Law Protects People.
'-Why cruelty the people. why sacri-
fee them TO the original sin of the So
called Sugar trust. The manufacturers
have right 20 buy sugar and refine II,
provided they do not enter into a con-
spiracy in restraint OF trade II they
do this there is law which sends them
10 the penitentiary."
He declared that the other farmers Of
the country had been given assistance
by the Government in protecting their
crops from pests, while the cane planter
had received none. The cotton planter,
he said. received back. with interest.
any money that he might pay for sugar
because Of the duty, in the vast sums
which the Government expended TO help
him grow his crop.
