The interest of every honest
American is that every honest
industry in this country should
prosper. Tho interest of every
American manufacturer, depend
ing as he must upon the home
market for the sale of bis fabrics,
is that the agricultural and min
1 ing population shall be fully era.
Ployed and shall obtain good
prices for its products. No man
who is humane, or patriotic, can
contemplate without regret and
sympathy the sufferings of the
silver miners of the far West and
of the commercial interests de
pending upon them for prosperi
p0ssible to regard
with indifference the feelings of
despair with which the Western
farmer observes the price of his
wheat steadily declining below
tlie cost of production, the dis
may w.th which the wool grower
begins to slaughter his profitless
flocks, or the suffering of the
Southern planter as he finds that
two bales of cotton are required
Jo pay a debt which could have
been extinguished with one bale
when the debt was contracted.?
Ex,
Ohio Wool Girowers.
The Ohio wool growers' asso-1
ciation held a meeting on the
State .air grounds August 31
and adopted the following resolu-1
Hons, in substance:
That with adequate protection
all the wool and mutton needed
for borne consumption will soon
be produced in this country,
f at free wool will substantially
destroy the American wool in
dustry and injuriously affect all
other industries, especially aKri
culture. That wool growers
should oppose the nomination or
election of any candidate who
does not favor full and adequate
protection for wool. That one
necessary remedy for existing
stringency in money is to legis
late so that we can cease import
ing wool, which comes from
countries that take nothing from
us iu return. And finally :
Whereas, Under proper pro
tection the United States would
soon have 100,000,000 sheep
which with the lands, buildings,
aud farm implements required
for them, would add $500,000,000
to our taxable wealth, and give
millions in the employment of
labor and bring an annual in
come in wool and mutton of fiJOO,
000,000 and make a' vastly in
creased demand for pasturage.
h?y- corn and oats, all 0f which
will be substantially destroyed
by free wool and mutton, bring
ing devastation threefold greater
than the destruction of all our
gold and silver mines, therefore,
Bcsolvtd, That such free wool
and mutton would be the colossal
political crime of the age
Wool growers were earnestly
urgnd to attend the mass meeting
of the wool growers, dealers, cot
ton planters, farmers, etc., at
Assepbly Hall, World's Pair
grounds; September 28 and 29,
and the meeting of the National
Wool Growers\ Association at
same place, October 5.
A prominent merchant and
wool dealer of this town, who
probably tooK the advice of the
Argus and held his wool when he
could have gotten 18 cents for it;
has been earnestly investigating
the Eastern markets. Philadel
phia bids 14 cents and Baltimore
locents. commission and freight
off. If the Argus can induce its
party to repeal the Chicago plat
form, it will confer a blessing on
suffering humanity.? Preston Co.
Journal.
Finance and Trade.
Prom some cause the improve
ment so noticeable for a few
weeks has lagged, and the re
sumption of idle mills and facto
ries is less marked. Against
thirty-three closing and ten re
ducing their force of employes,
something like \n equal number
have resumed in full and twenty
six in part. This is not overly
hopeful, and the only reasonable
explanation of the retardation is
found in the Senate's tardiness to
act upon the repeal of the Sher
man bill and a manifest dispo
sition on the part of the House
to complicate the situation by
tinkering with those schedules of
the tariff in which capital and la
bor are vitally interested. A
continuation of those tactics can
not but be disastrous.
The improvement which fol
lowed the defeat of free silver
was rapid and radical. It seemed
to follow as day follows the night.
But a sudden halt seemed to
come with equal certainty when
the Senate showed almost um
mistakably that the passage of
the Wilson bill for repeal was by
no means a certainty. In such a
case as this trade cannot stand
still. It must advance or go
backwards. And if the Senate s
probable action is not soon fore
shadowed, all that was gained
will be entirely lost, or we may
sink deeper in the mire than
aver.-Cincinnati Tribune.
K- G. Dunn & Co.'s review of
trade last week says: Improve
ment has extended from the
.b.^ks,to the mills. The condi
tion of great industries has dis
tinctly mended, though still se
riously depressed. More works
have resumed during the past
week than have stopped opora
tion, so that the producing force
of the country, after months of
constant decline, has begun to
increase. The money markets
are more healthy, the premium
on currency has almost vanished
the embarrassments in domestic
exchanges have well nigh dis
appeared, and while very little
money is yet available for com
mercial or industrial loans there
there is some relief in that re
spect. Soft steel has reached
the lowest point on record, 8i0
at Pittsburg, and consequently
all rail mills in the country are
idle, but there is a somewhat bet
ter demand for hardware, wire
rods barbed wire, and contracts
for agricultural work and agri
| cultural impliment supplies are
reported at Chicago. Sales of
wool have been the lowest on
record for years, 1,273,00 poHnds
at the principal markets for the
last week against 7,616,800 for
the same week last year, the av
erageofa 104 grades being 17
cents, the lowest for many years,
and in the manufacture it can
hardily be said that recovery ap

Mr. Geo. Fred Williams, a
prominent Democrat of Massa
chusetts in reply to the inter
rogatory, "What should be done
after the repeal of the Sherman
act ?" said, "Nothing."
And in that one word you get
the policy and principles of
Democracy. The whole ground
is covered. Pleged to the repeal
of the Sherman act, to the re
moval of the tax on State banks
and to the reform of the tariff
or rather the repeal of the Mc
Kinley bill, they trained complete
control of the Government in all
the branches essential to legisla
tion. And they are practically
doing nothing, unless the divis
ion ot spoils is something. Even
that is being done, but poorly
according to the views of the
hungry and faithful. Time will
not remedy matters.
The "nothing" policy is charac
teristically Democratic. For
years the party has kept together
through its opposition to any
thing proposed or done by the
Republican party. A* to sug
gesting new plans or purposes
to aid the natural development of
the country they have done noth
ing. They have fooled a part of
the voters all the time and, un
fortunately. a majority of the
voters part of the time. As a re
sult they have full swing and are
doing nothing.
They may hope to retain con
trol of the national government
by this deception and "nothing"
policy, but we have a strong im
pression that when the voters
have an opportunity a year hence
the House of Representatives
will be Republican with a work
ing majority. Then the "noth
ing" policy will be speedily
abandoned and the something
policy of the Republican party
come decidedly to the front.
The quicker such a consum
mation is reached, the better tor
the country.? Cin. Tribune.
In view of what Hood's Sarsaparilla
hug done for others, is it not reasonable
to believe that it will also l>e of benefit
to you?
An editor of an exchange says
he knows of Bome people who are
so exceedingly modest that in
speaking about a person's let;
they persist in calling it a limb;
but the Stephenson county young
lady who in speaking of a certain
breed of chickens called them
Brown Limbhoriis, he thinks,
takes the bakery.?That's noth
ing. In this city there dwells a
young lady bo exceedingly modest
that she blushes every time she
passes a pile of undressed lumber.
?Lanark, III., Gazette.?It seems
that this mock modesty is not
confined to the .young ladies. We
have a young gentleman in our
town who even blushes at the
sight of a garter snake.?Weston
