SHALLOW TRICKS.” ABSURD ARGUMENTS OF THE ENE- MIES OF THE TARIFF, Contradictory Assertions of the Calamity Howlers Put Them Ludicrous Posi tions—~Revkless Agitation About Wool, It Has Come to Stay. In In their pager search for arguments against the new tariff the calamity howling organs fall into #hoe most con tradictory and ludicrous positions, s: the Philadelphia Record same breath they assert that In one and the the tariff is ruining the woolen industries of the country and that the enormous impor tation of wool is death to sheep growing on the Rocky mountain They next assert that increase in importations of they estimate at 1,000 per cent!) is de stroying the production of woolen fabrics ranges, the enormous ‘ ‘sh daddy’ (which —a statement which may be left to the | slandered manufacturers themselves As the importation of shoddy was prac tically prohibited by the McKinley tm iff, this percentage trick is as shallow | as it is dishonest. But the organs do not mention that the imports of rags, waste, noils and other materials of shoddy do not amount to more than 71g per cent of the free imports of wool under the new tariff This fact would completely destroy the trick of percentages. Nor do they men tion that the imported materials of shoddy cest American manufacturers by the pound 83 per cent more than most of the wool imported under the McKinley law. Nor yet do they even mention that the importations of wool now consist for the most part of the fin est foreign fleeces, which formerly sel dom reached the mills of this country As for the poor woolgrowers, the enormous annual slaughter of sheep for the American mutton attributed by the calamity organs to the destructive influence of t new tariff If no domestic wool be used American manufacturers ep Brow would still be pr his country for its meat. With most American farm- ers who raise sheep the wool is the least consideration. But with the enorm destruction of domestic sheep, and witl the enormous importations of wool, what has become of all the wool if the woolen industries have been as ruthless ly destroyed as the calamity howlers assert? The manufacturers must have eaten the wool along with the mutton in order to engage exclusively in the pro- duction of shoddy fabrics! In their eagerness to misrepresent the new tariff its enemies are incapable of perceiving the absurdities in which they are in- volving themselves, But what do the calamity organs ex- pect to accomplish by their reckless agi tation against the wool schedule of the SE consumers of is ’ y sao s Bd fitable in new tariff? Do they imagine that the | consumers or the manufacturers of this | . i ; | dential campaign. hd . nt to a restora- or to the removal of wool from the free list? If they entertain such a foolish no tion, let them go ask the manufacturers themselves. It is possible that a wool en manufacturer here and there, in con sulting prejudice or party spirit, may express a desire to return to ism. Bat the great bod facturers will set thei against a restoration of even though should be attended by the lure of a revival of McKinley rates on woolens. They have seen and felt the effects of McKinleyism in its tempta tions to frandulent valuations and smuggling. It is not conceivable that awake captains of Amer would give up the advantage which the new tariff has secured them in opening, for the first time, the markets of the world for their raw materials. In the recent London wool sales the appear. ance of American merchants in the front rank of bidders for the best qualities was a new feature in the trade. This shows once more the promptness of American manufacturers to avail them selves of every opportunity. Is it likely that alter enjoying the benefits of free wool they would consent to be shut out of the world's markets and driven back to the coarse grades of wool, as former- ly, after their rivals of England, France and Germany shall have picked out the finest fleeces? Not atall. Free wool has come to stay, and none is so well sat isfied with this dispensation as the American manufacturer of woolens. y fa it these wide ican industry Harmony In the Empire State, The ‘‘Cleveland Democrats’ and the “Hill Democrats,” who have for so long a time been making war against one another in New York, have put aside their banners and rallied around the party of ‘ ‘plain Democracy’ regard. less of individuals.

Wages In the Woolen Indastries, The predictic i 4 ers that the removal of the dut vould not only add to the val fleeces, but increase trade manufacturers by broadening the lines of business, are amply justified by re cent events.
