The extent to which the British blockade is performing
for us the function of a tariff proxy is well exemplified in the
importation Of hosiery and knit goods. Ordinarily our great
est competitor for the domestic market in these goods is Ger
many. The Germans were having a high old time In our mar
ket just before the war broke out, and our importations of hos
iery and knit goods nearly doubled during the first nine months
Of 1914, compared with the same period in 1913. But during
the nine months ended September last our imports of these
articles dropped to the insignificant amount of $682,00O,
from ~$4,600,000 during the 1914 period, $454,OOO worth get
ting in from Germany. A recent report from the U. S. Consul
at Chemnitz, where the bulk Of these goods are made up in
forms us that the German cotton knit goods industries are not
harmed in the least. They will be running at a capacity OF lOO
per cent plus when the war is over and if we do not return to
protection the American knit goods industries will receive a
Jolt from which it will take years to recover.

TIE SMOKING OF TOBACCO.
Maybe Raleigh Was Not the FRS.
White Man to Use the Weed.

'f'''eS N'atA W SS0 et1S VvVSNs
Ones faith in the tradition that
Sir Walter Raleigh was the first
smoker Of tobacco is somewhat
shaken by this quotation regarding
William Middleton, antedating Ra-
lcigh's use Of the weed, in G. L. Ap-
PERSONS The Social History Of
>moking:''
1t is sayed that he, with Cap
tain Thomas Price of Plasyollin and
one Captain koet, were the first
who smoked, or (as they called it)
drank tobacco publickly in London
and that the Londoners hocked
from all parts to sec Them"
There is a vague doubt, however,
about the date Of Middleton, and so
the Raleigh theory of the introduce
zion Of tobacco into England may
still find adherents. Europe, how
ever. according to Mr.. Apperson,
first knew the tobacco plant in 1860.
In England William Harrison, writ
ln- il 1888, states that in 1878 "the
taking in Of tho smoke Of the In
dian hcrbe called Tobacco by an in
Strument formed like little ladell,
whereby it passeth from the mouth
into the head and stomach, is grethc
taken up and used in England."
Since then tobacco has been
through many vicissitudes. It en-
countered the condemnation Of King
James, in whose reign it was fur
nisAcd by the apothecaries as sort
OF pick-me-up. Theologians and
Others wrote against it until Gin
the carly Victorian days, when it
was in complete disrepute, relegated
to the stables and outhouses and
generally classed as utterly vulgar"
Since that period, however, owing
largely to the example set by Kins
Edward VII. tobacco has steadily
gained in popularity, denounced, it
is true, by Swinburnc, Ruskin and
others and eliminating in that
"graund nicht" when "Tennyson
and Carl yle sat in the kitchen of
the house in Chcvne row opposite
one another for hours, smoking in
