CARPET WEAVING IN PERSIA
Process Seems Tedious, But the Pro.
duction Is Celebrated Through
y out the World.

Generally speaking, the carpets of
India can never excel those of Persia,
as the materials used in the former
are not of the same superior quality as
those employed in the latter country.
The wool of which many of the best
carpets are manufactured is obtained
from Kashmir. Sometimes carpets
which are mistaken for silk are ready
of an extremely fine quality of wool
known as "pashm." This is obtained
from the goats of Kashmir and grows
close to the skin, being protected by
the long and coarser wool. 1t is as
smooth and lustrous as silk and is
used for the beautiful soft shawls for
which Kashmir is famous Peculiar
methods are employee by the Indian
weaver in converting his original de-
sign into a textile. Instead of work
ing from colored drawing or diagram,
the weaver has the pattern translated
ON paper into rows of symbols, each of
which expresses the number of stitches
and the color. With this written key"
in his hand, the head weaver sits be-
hind his subordinates and dictates the
pattern to them, one row at time, all
through the breadth of the carpet.
These weavers-generally quite small
boys-sit in front of the warp strings
and tie in the requisite number of
stitches of each color as called out to
them by the reader from his ciphered
scrip. These boys, who perform the
actual process Of weaving the pile, fol-

In His New Years
Greeting

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Dec. al
Gov. Dunno to-day. extended his of

the hope that the Calumet. Mich,

The text OF the Governors greeting
follows
The new year opens with the most
favorable prospects for the %prosperi-
~ and success OF the American Repu-
tile. The long agitation for the re-
d%uction OF the tariff has ended by
placing upon the Federal statute
books n law demanded overwhclm-
ingly by the people at the polls.
The business interests OF the coun-
Try now car proceed safely and sure
~ to develop their enterprises upon
the basis OF this existing law. which
will not be disturbed or modified In
any serious aspect for some years to
come.
The financial panlcs. which hereto
fore have resulted from an unelastic
currency. will be obviatcd by the re-
cent currency act, passed with great
%deliberation, and In u spirit of mutual
concession by the Congress which has
Just adjourned.
We have neither war nor rumors OF
VAR affecting this country. Under the
suidance of a peace-loving admins
tration II Is most unlikely that we can
be irriated into any wariike contro-
versy with our sister Republic OF the
South. The spirit OF peace and mr.
bitration is spreading throughout tho
c%iyilizc world.
Wlththe exception OF the labor
troubles nj Calumet Industrial peace
prevails throughout the country. IL
is the hope OF all patriotic citizens
that this unfortunate controversy be-
tween capital and labor in the Calu-
net district can be settled by the ex-
hihition OF a spirit OF moderation and
concession On both sides.
II Is high time that n thoroughgo-
ing investigation should be made into
the causes OF this unfortunat contro-
versy and an honest effort made to
adjust the same without further af-
iliction and loss OF property.
The greetings were issued from the
executive.
