The Poor Savage Of Civilization

The poor, ignorant savage ventured
to put few question to the pious

from his benighted condition and to
confer upon him the benefits of civi-
Hzation.

FAIR BUSINESS
DUE To COTTON
New York Manufacturers Fast Re-
covering, and Prospects Are
Unusually Good,

NEW YORK, Nov. S.-The con-
verters and handlers of fine goods
have just done a fair October bust
ness, and on the whole their clients
have little to complain Of in the vol
ume of trade that has been sent along
to them. The question of prices is
not one that invites much talk, as 1t
is admitted that costs of production
are ruling high, and 1t is difficult to
induce buyers to pay advances on
goods wanted for late delivery. The
mills that have been making fancy
goods in volume are COINS to show
moderate profit if they have been
properly handled, but the mills that
are selling plain goods are not get
ting proportionate advance for
cloths to take care Of the added costs
arising from higher cotton and other
things.
What is true Of fine goods is true of
other lines in varying degrees. The
adjustment of prices to the levels that
are warranted by cotton costs is not
rapid, and it is not being welcomed
in the trade beyond the mills.
The buyer at the counter. will pay
an extraordinary figure for novelty
fabric and one quite out of range with
the actual cost of the goods to either
handler or producer, but when the
same buyer is asked to paw a fair ad
vance on the price Of a staple there
are objections urged at once.
The scarcity Of many goods for
quick delivery is helping to bring
about the readjustment that must
come, yet there are many goods
bought at low prices which are still
due, and those who will get them will
ha piA ma 10 nTnUiGiAT for
replacement on a lac cotton level as
against an lie level.
Status of Market.
That the market is making up on
a higher level with the quiet of gray
goods acknowledged Is not disputed
by either buyers or agents. To what
extent it win be affected by the cur
rent doubts in financial markets con-
corning the maintenance of purchas-
ing power next year Is the real prob
lem to which many merchants are de-
voting themselves.
The underwear markets are an ex-
ample of the situation that exists.
Under all the rules of merchandising
the underwear mills should receive an
advance Of 10 per cent on their last
years values This they know they
can not do, and they are accepting
5 per cent up and rarely as high as
IA per cent. In the case of wool
goods where the possibilities of ma
nipulation are many the actual price
advance does not count so much.
Good Linen Business.
There is a good business going or
in linens. The importers are very
busy shipping goods that are now
coming forward more freely from the
other side, and buyers are supplying
their needs for the holidays and Janu-
airy sales
There has been a much better call
this week for the o-called ramie
dress linens and for many Of the low
grades OF domestic linens.
Tho burlap markets are weaker.
There has been a break in the specu-
lative conditions that have controlled
the primary markets in Calcutta, but
thus far It has been confined to the
finished goods rather than to raw
jute.

Tariff Effect Nil
On Barley Business
Champion Producer Of Beaver Dam
Says Good Product Is I'm
mune in Change.

BEAVER DAM, WIS, Nov. S.-Henry
e. kreuger, of Beaver Dam, who Is
known in the grain and brewery trace
as the champion barley grower, ana
who, at home, is a leader in Democratic
politics, Is authority for the statement
that. although the tariff cut the duty
on barley. directly in half, 1t Is not
likely to be at all disastrous on the
growing of American DArley-aI leAst
OF good barley,
An of our choice barley goes to the
MASTERS and is used in the manufac-
ture Of beer declared Mr.. kreuBef.
This demand fixes the price and gives
the farmer reasonable return for his
labor Barley of 50 low grade as TO
be used solely for feed could not profit
ably be raised on soil which has
value OF 500 or more an acre. and
this Is about the bottom price for choice
and well located land to-day.
Canadian barley, with a very small
exception, does not come up to the
mating grade and will have little eff
feet upon our markets, even with its
recent 15-cent reduction in duty. Nor
can the cheaper grades be sent In for
feed and pay a duty of 15 cents and
meet our prices. So the farmer has 1T
tie or nothing to fear-unless the Ca
nadlans begin the growing OF grain
equal in grade to ours.
ION the other hand, this new duty
will tend to maintain more even and
reasonable price, because il will foil
any attempts At GOIHeTlIlH lIlt UihIktN
and bullying prices 1t simply will act
as d restraint upon the jugglers in the
grain markets.
