HOW CLEVELAND INJURED THE TRADE
Amsterdam, K. Y., Aug. 1L There is
a, little creek which wanders down from the
highlands overlooking the valley of the
Mohawk at this place, and after running
athwart the lower part ot the city, flows
Into the river. Thronging the sides of this
email stream in its descent from the hilltop,
are scores of factories. Chief among them,
high in the air and commanding a view of
the city, are the large carpet mills of S.
Sanford & Sons.
The carpet mills are Amsterdam's pride.
They were first started here in 1840 by
John Sanford, father of Stephen Sanford,
the present head of the firm, with 14 ma
chines and 25 hands. The pay roll was in
significant. Under the beneficent opera
tions of the protective system, mill after
mill has been added until there are now em
ployed about 2,500 persons, who receive in
wages 5750,000 yearly, and manufacture
carpets worth several millions of dollars.
There was suffering among the operatives
of the carpet mills at the time of Mr. Cleve
land's former attack upon the tariff In
1887 and 1888, business fell off and the mills
were only running five days in the week,
and then only on half time. Bat General
Harrison was elected, and business again
became brisk in the carpet trade.
Work Is Constant lioir.
How, every day, the mills are in opera
tion, and every man and woman employed
in them works all day. Moreover, Mr.
Sanford feels so much encouraged by the
operation of the McKinley tariff that he is
now erecting a mill for the manufacture of
mnqnette carpets, in which he will employ
1,000 persons; and in 1893, he intends to
erect an additional carpet mill for the em
plovment of 1,000 persons. The people of
Amsterdam, and especially- the tradesmen,
are highly pleased that 2,500 persons are
thus to be added to the population of the
place, for it will bring greater prosperity to
all who live within the borders ot the
town.
Has this business success of tbe carpet
manufacturer and this prosperity of the
working people been gained at the expense
of the purchasers ot carpets? No; for
prices have been lowered. Mr. Sanford
makes in his mill velvet and tapestry vel
vet carpets, upon which the duty was
raised by the McKinley tariff act respect
ively from 25 cents to 40 cents a yard, and
from SO per cent to 40 per cent a yard; and
tapestry brussels, figured and plain, from 20
cents to 28 cents, and from 30 per cent to 40
per cent a yard. Mr. Sanford said: "We
are selling tapestries from 40 to 62 cents a
yard, and velvets from 75 cents to 1 15 a
yard. Upon all these grades of goods there
has been a reduction of at least 10 per cent
since the year when the McKinley act was
passed.
A General Reduction In Prices.
"In fact, there has been a reduction of
the same percentage upon all grades of
carpets that we sold at 70 cents a yard in
1890, which we are now selling at 62f cents
a yard, a reduction of 7) cents a yard, and
in many lines ot carpets the reduction is
greater. In my 50 years of experience as a
manufacturer of carpets, I have nerer
kuown carpets to be as low as they are now;
yet on account of the great demand for
American goods and the volume of sales
our business is satistactory. What is best
of all we have been enabled to maintain the
wages of our men, despite this reduction in
the price of our goods. Those wages are
no lower than when the McKinley act
was passed. What is very pleasing is
the absence of English carpets from
our markets; and, indeed, nearly all foreign
carpets. The manufacturers in this coun
try are able to make all the goods consumed
here. Indeed, they are able to make mofe
than we need, and it is their competition
this year which has reduced the price of
carpets to the lowest point ever reached in
the history of the carpet trade. If the tariff
on carpets be reduced, English carpets
would come in, and whatever amount thev
may be, whether $1,000,000 or 55,000,000
worth, it will take just that volume of pro
duction away lroin this class of working
people in this country, and force them into
other occupations or else deprive them of
employment."
"You do not, then," I asked, "favor a
reduction of the duty upon carpets?"
"I do not, and I have had an experience
which is worth telliug as to the effect of a
threat to reduce the tariff. After Mr.
Cleveland sent his message to Congress in
1887, advocating a reduction of the duties
upon manufactured goods, we suffered from
stagnation in our business. Merchants who
formerly would give an order for 40 or 50
pieces of carpets refrained from doing so,
not knowing what might happen. They
would give orders for five or ten pieces
only. They thus worked along from hand
to mouth, and we were forced to run our
works on half time.
Result or the Election or 1888.
"When the news of General Harrison's
election came I immediately started our
mills on full time, and have run them in
that way ever since. The average reduction
in the price of carpets since the McKinley
act was passed has been 10 per cent. What
a reductionin the price of carpets there has
been! My father sold carpets at $3 a yard
lor which I now can obtain only 62' cents
a yard."
Mr. San ford's workingmen and working
women look happy and contented. They
receive good wages, and manr of them have
caved a competency. Hundreds of them
own the bouses in which they live. Am
sterdam prides itjelf upon having a larger
proportion ot herpopulation living in homes
owned by their occupants than any other
city in the State. The operatives of the
mills own a large proportion of these build
ings. If the increased duty upon carpets is a
"tax," th; consumers of carpets in Amster
dam are not aware of the fact; and the fol
lowers of Mr. Cleveland in the city ac
knowledge that in this instance, at least, he
was mistaken. Nor can they see that the
McKinley act, so far as carpets are con
cerned, has done any harm. Before their
eyes are hundreds of American workingmen
and workinewomen employed at good wages
the year round. They know that Mr. San
ford intends within a year to give employ
ment to 2,500 more Americans, and they are
aware that the prices of all grades of 'car
pets manufactured in this city have been
reduced 10 per cent Under these circum
stances a great many protection Democrats
declare that they intend to sustain the
American tariff policy, which has wonder
fully benefited their town, by voting for
Benjamin Harrison for President.

OUR OCEAN COMMERCE THE BEST
t
rigarea Show That Uncle Sam. Is Away
Ahead In Mexico.
Washington, Aug. 11. Minister Kyan,
in transmitting to tbe State Department
recently published statistical tables of Mex
ican foreign and domestic shipping move
ments for 1891,' calls attention to the highly
gratifying condition of our ocean commerce
with the neighboring republic. He says:
"It will be seen that more American,
steamers entered the Mexican ports than
those of all the other nations of the world
combined: that American sailing vessels en
tering were infinitely in excess of those of
any other country; and that Mexico's do
mestic orinternational commerce was carried
by more American steamships and sailing
vessels than those of all other nations com
bined, with the single exception of Mexico
itself. Another table manifests the great
increase in Mexico's maritime movement
during the said fiscal year over the preced
ing. How large a part the United States
contributed thereto is indicated above."
CHILE WAS IS 10 SETTLE,
And Claims Commission Will Meet In
TVanhlnirton to Art-unco Matters.
"Washington, Aug. 1L Miuister Egan
has definitely agreed with the Chilean Gov
ernment upon a convention for the settle
ment of all unadjusted claims of citizens of
the United States against Chile by means
of a claims commission, to meet in Wash
ington. This action of the Minister chroni
cles the satisfactory termination of a nego
tiation which has been pending for a long
time. No general claims convention has
ever been celebrated with Chile, and claims
of American citizens date back for more
than half a century, though a great portion
of them have their origin in the Chilean
Peruvian war, 12 years ago.
Mr. Egan reports that in all negotiations
leading up to settlement the Chilean Gov
ernment has met him in most friendly spirit.
Much satisfaction is expressed at the De
partment ot State at the successful result of
our Minister's efforts in this and other mat
ters recently brought to a conclusion.
KOBE TS0USLE FOB IOWA.
Messiah Schwelnforth Will Establish a
Church In Keokuk.
Eocktoed, III., Aug. 11. George
Jacob Schweinfurth, the Messiah, will
abandon Illinois and create a new haven in
Iowa, just south of Keokuk, on the Mis
souri line. Schweinfurth says he has grown
tired of the persecutions heaped upon him
and his flock by the people of Illinois. He
claims that his flock has grown throughout
the country, and that he now has'4,500 fol
lowers. He proposes to colonize them all
near Keokuk. The land which he seeks to
purchase covers 25,000 acres.
The men and women will be compelled to
live apart as at Bockford, and it is proposed
to organize the colony on the communistio
plan, with a Board of Supervisors, all
under one spiritual head, Schweinfurth,
with Angelica Weldon in charge of the
women's work. The good people of Keokuk
are said to be greatly provoked.
A Model of the Kearsarge to Be Bntlt.
Washington, Aug. 1L A novel feature
of the reunion ot the naval veterans here at
the coming G. A. K. encampment will be
the erection of a model of the old warship
Kearsarge, the conqueror of the Alabama,
on the grounds adjacent to the White
House. The model will be 240 feet long,
built mainly of wood, armed with four
gnns, and nave a cam as over the deck.
The addresses are to be delivered from the
poop deck, while the berth deck will be
fitted with hammocks for the accommodation
of the guards.
Postmasters to Visit Neighbor,
"Washington, Aug. 11. Letters have
been sent by the Fostoffice Department to
about 2,800 postmasters at county seats ask
ing them to repeat this year, some time be
tween August 1 and December 15, the vis
its of inspection made by them last year to
the' small postoffices in their respective
counties. The experiment last year is said
to have worked w ell in bringing the post
masters at small places into relations with
postmasters of larger experience, and
thereby improving the postal service.
The Danish Affair Unsettled.
Washington, Aug. 11. The Danish
Minister has notified the State Department
that he has been informed by his Govern
ment of the conversion of Consul Hyder.
The Department has telegraphed Minister
Carr. at his home in Illinois, to proceed to
Denmark. Nothing will be done by the
department in the matter until the case is
settled by the Danish judicial authorities.

All of these elements are
