SENATOR "CRAWFORD In a Signed Letter He Discusses His Position on the Wool Schedule* .. Washington, July 27.— la a rigm letter to bis constituents, Senator Crawford has the following to say in regard to the wool schedules: South Dakota has bad an experience in connection with tbe reduction and removal of the taiiff on wool which I do not believe the people of that state have fogntten. The McKinley law of 1WK) put a protective duty upon wool and woolen textiles. After the pass age of that law, thousands Jof farmers and stock raisers in South Dakota in vested in sheep. I remember when our people went out into Montana, and even as far west as Oregon, and bought thousands of sheep and drove them across the country to South Da kota and then sold them out to farmers in small bands. These farmers, as a rule, were poor and borrowed the money at the banks with which to pay for these sheep. They were just get ting fairly started when the Wilson Gorman tariff bill of 1S94 was passed, which ripped up the woolen schedule and greatly reduced the tariff on wool en textiles and practically removed it from raw wool. The result was im mediate disaster and ruin for the wool growers of South Dakota. Wool WHS wortb only 8c tc 10w a pound and was a drug on tbe market at that. Sheep went down to $1 apiece. The sheep owners failed and went into insolvency and the resulting period was the sad dest and darkest in the history of our state. I was elected and sent here as a republican and a protectionist. Wnen tbe propositi to reduce tbe tariff in tbe woolen schedule came up, I listened eageily and intently to the entire de UK bate. I read tbe testimony and gave the matter veiy careful consideration. I found that the real contest in tbe woolen schedule was between two classes of woolen manufacturers, to wit: the manufacturers of "worsteds" and the carding wool people. It ap pears that thee manufacturers of these worsteds by means of more improved methods, more modern niachineiy and more capital, have been able to supplant and largely displace the carding mills, who are not able to compete successfully with them. It seems that the caruing mill people, in order to successfully compete with the worsted people, must import large ly what are known as "tcps" and "waste," both competing with the American wool. In all tbe different plans brought forward for making re ductions in the woolen schedule, it was proposed to reduce the duty mater ially upon raw wools. In every cam paign in South Dakota made since 1HU4, I arraigned the democratic party severely for the disaster and ruin it brought to the South Dakota sheep raisets by reducing tbe tariff upon wool. When the proposal came np at thi* congress to cut and slash the woolen schedule to pieces. I felt that I would not only be guilty of changing front upon the woolen tariff question per sonally, but that I would be joining in an indiscriminate assault upon very substantial industry of my own state and of tbe adjoining states of Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon, and of New Meixco, and all that vast region of which South Dakota is a Dart In order to be fair about the matter, I notified Dollivei and LaFollette that 1 could not join them in an assault upon the woolen schedule and 'atood hv that schedule. No suggestion was ever made in a republican state con vention in South Dakota that tbe tariff on wool should be reduced, and I am firmly convinced that had any such pro posal ever lieen made in 8 republican state convention of that state, it would have been met with overwhelming defeat.

MAKING ANEW ITALY, Big Southern Colony's Promoter TeMs of Work Done. MAY BE KEY TO BIG PROBLEMS Schem* Being Tried Near Wilmington, N. C., Is Expected to Aid the South In 8olving Negro Problem and That of Making Use of Idle Land—Life In New Italian Settlement. Convinced that there is still enough good truck garden land still unoccu pied along the Atlantic seaboard t»! support many thousands of his coun-i try men, Felice Ferrero, brother o# William Ferrero, the Italian historian and sociologist, recently returned to New York city after a visit of investi gation and inspection to an experi mental co-operative Italian colony lo cated near Wilmington, N. C. Mr. Ferrero is certain that the exper iment has reached the point where it may be designated as a success, and ho expects the general spreading of the news of what It has done to turn a wave of Italian Immigration south ward. Heretofore this Immigration has beaded westward, and Its deflec tion Into tbe south is expected to bring an end to a certain condition that has existed In the south since the war. An experimental Dutch colony, locat ed also in North Carolina, has so far succeeded that a group of fifty fami lies is now being organized In Holland to come over in the autumn to prepare for next year's seeding time. With these combined immigration movements away from the general trend of their progress across the country, Mr. Ferrero is convinced that the south has seen the end of the day when It may expect to have the "ne gro problem" as a special sectional difficulty and that from now on other labor will invade the market hereto fore so universally surrendered to the descendants of the slaves. Italian Government Interested. Mr. Ferrero, who talked freely of conditions as he found them among North Carolina Italians and of the interest that he and bis brother nre taking in seeing such of their countr.v men as like the life of farmers trans planted where there will be an op portunity for them to develop, said: There are many organizations In Italy anxious to find gooil land, so that they can let their people know where best to go. Here In New York there Is Italian labor bureau They're raising the finest children you ever saw—much huskier and healthier than their half fed brothers and sisters in Italy. Italian peasants, such as these colonists were, are usually much attached to the land. With a patch of land, a bit of Meal to eat and a small sum tucked away In some corner Bo. of World's A&sociationa g!ns in Gerrrany. of the house such a peasant would be happy. Only the most desperate could be Induced to leave. Hut here after three years of work 1 find a people whose daily diet Includes sweet potatoes, a good assortment of veg etables and even chickens and beef. Be sides this prosperity, their priest assures me each family has something over JIIO put aside, the product of the sales of th.' season's strawberry crop. The colony has a church and a school, and all of the younger children are taught to speak English. Most of the North Carolina Italians will come over direct from Italy and will be Venetians and people now farming PLANS OF BRiAND CABINET Ministerial an In Lafayette street maintained by the government. It col lects Information and gives the benefit of its Investigation free to all inquiring Ital ians. It costs the government, I should say, $10,000 a year to keep It up. This bureau will distribute at once copies of the report on the Carolina experiment and wilt advise Italians what they may reasonably expect to find it they settle there. The new movement, as Mr. Ferrero sees It, will affect the negro question, the problem of getting relief in the congested centers of the big cities, the Immigration question and the matter of Increasing the Industrial wealth of the south by turning many waste areas into farming sections. Greatly Attached to the Land. When asked to state exactly in what condition he found the 300 colonists making up the experimental venture at the end of their third season on the land ho spoke with much enthusiasm: Declaration In the northern provinces. Grape and Olive Crops Thriving. One interesting experiment in North Carolina has been that of grape and olive culture. So far the chief crops put out of St. Helena, the name of tbe Italian colony, have been strawber ries, potatoes, English beans and cab bages, while crops of alfalfa, corn and cotton are being introduced. Father Donati, the priest of the col ony, came from a grape and olive raising family. He has experimented with both, has a thriving prospect now and is planning to bring over the members of his family in the fail with enough grapevines and young olive trees to start a large vineyard and olive grove. Besides this new venture, Mr. Fer rero hopes to interest a few scientific farmers in the settlement so that the peasant farmers, who adopt new ideas slowly, will have before them the In spiration of model farifts handled by experts in horticulture and agricul ture. These, Mr. Ferrero hopes, will do for the Italian settlements what the agricultural college experiment sta tions have doue for the western and middle western states. Besides their work on the farms, he hopes to see established in New York another branch of the movement—a co-operative distributing system In which the Italian commission mer chants in New York will keep in close touch with crop conditions in the col onies and will prepare to handle speed ily the shipments of perishable truck garden crops. New York Evening Made in Chamber of Deputies. Paris, July 28.—The ministerial dec laration with which the new Briand cabinet presented itself in the cham ber of deputies declares that the re mainder of the present session of par liament will bo devoted to passing tho budget, the worklngmen's pension bili and the income tax bill, postponing the electoral reform bill until thu next parliament.

HORSESHOEING PALACE. Atlantic City to Have Marble Building With Ornate Dollows and Forges. To the many and varied attractions of Atlantic City, N. .7., Is to bo added a mnrl.de blacksmith shop.

By this plan they hope to elirn inate many mercenary marriages, the worry of penniless spinsters about husbands and the endless jokes about old maids.
