When making eyelet embroidery it is a good idea to rub white soap on the cloth first Hold a piece of soap under the machine and allow the stiletto to pass through it. The soap gives a slight stiffness to the cloth and much better eye can be made.

TARIFF DID IT ALL.

The 'Parkersburgh Dispatch News
very ably comes to the defense of
the West Virginian In reply to an
article in the Parkersburg Sentinel
with reference to tariff on tin. to
which the West Virginian has brief
ly replied. The Dispatch News raises
point that the West vfrginian fail
ed to mention and that is that
there were no tin plate mills in this
country before the tariff was put on
tin. On this subject the Dispatch
News says:
mo doubt the Fairmont West
Virginian will answer the question
propoundcd by the Sentinel. In the
meantime the Sentinel would cn-
tighten this discussion by citing i
single tin plate factory In existence
before the protective tariff bill was
enacted, known as the Mckinley
Law. The Dispatch-News ventures
the assertion without any special in
vestigation at this time that before
tHio pSSaLHc ld"' every pOuHu Oh
tin plate used In the United States
was imported from Wales and other
countries, and that the Democratic
party then made as much light Of
the proposition that by this enact
ment a great industry could be built
up in this country, as they now
make over the assertion that reduc-
ton of the tariff duties will cripple
1t. AS to the particularly striking
question, the Ditspatch-News pos
sesses no particular information. 1t
Is true, however. that during the
last decade the interests that own
the plants In question have arisen
from very humble beginning until
now they are able to supply very
large amount OF the tin plate used
in this country and furnish employ
ment at good wages to hundreds OF
West Virginia citizens at Clarksburs
and Wierton. The Sentinel sees In
their preGent shut down colnci-
dence, but we venture the prophcsy
that many such condolences will
have TO be explained in the next
eighteen months"

TALLY 10 per cent would result - q
theory he described as competitive

increase importations.
President Wilson in his first
message also proposed to destroy

said, "a set of privileges and exemp-
lions from competition behind which
1t was easy by any, even the crud-

crease in the number Of silk making

Cured during the 10 years ended in
1909 is good evidence that competi-

There is certainly no monopoly
In the cotton industry when some l.
324 separate establishments are en-
gagged and in which the largest indi-
vidual establishment controls less
than 2 per cent of the total machin-
cry. In woods the existence of 9S5
Independent establishments affords
ample guarantee OF competition In

TELLS HOUSE COMMITTEE HOW
CONGRESSMAN WERE
PRODUCED.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Aug. I. =
James A. Emory. general counsel for
the National Association Of Manu-
facturers, today told the house lob
by committee how he had worked
for and against members of con :
gress according to their acqu1escenco
to the demands of the association.
He said that the National Associa :
ton Of Manufacturers kept close
tab on the records of all congress-
men. and when the reelection time
came notified their members in the
separate districts, and that the work
in helping their reelection or defeat
was always done locally.
A letter written to F. C. SChwedt-
mann, secretary to the president OF
the National Association of Manu-
facturcrs. by Emory, In 1910, saiu
that Congressman Barthholdt had
been very successfully proddcd from
St. Louis" Members of the COM
mittee were anxious to find just
what kind OF "prodding" was meant.
Emory obligingly explained that the
system was to inspire telegraphic
protests from constituents to the
congressman who wished to be in
flucnced. He intimated that some
times the congressman did not know
the real origin OF teh eloquent pro-
tests against contemplated action.
Emory yesterday morning began
before the senate committee a pre-
liminary statement of the aims of
the association which he represents.

Free Trade Impossible.
Continuing the subject of tex
tiles. Senator Lippitt continued:
1.-THE first step In preparing a con-
sistent tariff is to decide upon the
principle upon which It Is to be
made. The purpose OF protectionists
has been to write tariff intended
to give reasonable preference to
the products of American industries
in American markets. The oppo.
nents of this policy have many OBJ
iects in view. At one time the!

consistent free trade in practice Is
impossible in this country so long as
II is proposed to realize revenues

The virtue of the Italian people and
