WOOLEN MANUFACTURERS
URGE MODERATION.
Admit That Hlch Duties and Consequent
High Prices Will Restrict the Use of
Woolens.
Somo of the severest criticisms not
only of special duties and clauses, bat
of the whole accursed protective sys
tem, come from the protected manufac
turers themselves in their struggle with
opposing interests. Mr. S. N. D. North,
secretary of the Woolen Manufacturers'
association, is now and always bas been
a stanch protectionist. As such he be
lieves that the 70,000,000 consumers of
this counjry are legitimate subjects for
plunder and that the manufacturers
are the proper persons to enjoy the pro
tection plunder.
The free wool experiment which we
have been trying for three years, besides
being an object lesson in the way of
cheap woolens, has taught the woolen
manufacturers that they can make as
much or more profit with free wool and
moderate protection, which permits peo
ple of moderate means to wear real
woolen goods, than with high duties on
both wool and woolens, which restricts
the use of woolens to people in gcod cir
cumstances. The ?>irjuafacturers there
fore display more than their usual mod
esty and Patriotismen the advice which
they are giving to congress. Mr. North
is in Washington to voice the manufac
turers' patriotism. Here is part of his
advice as taken from the Washington
correspondence cf The Dry Goods Econ
omist:
I am free to say the bill is far from satisfac
tory to the woolen manufacturers. The chief
fault is to be found "with the raw wool duties,
.which arc so hitch that our manufacturers will
find themselves sorely embarrassed. It is true
the committee lias provided compensatory
duties which are probably sufficient to offset
the duties cn raw wool, but the difficulty will
be, in my opinion, that the very considerable
increase in price which must be made to cover
the additional cost of raw material will have
the effect of cutting down consumption to an
extent that will bc disastrous to tho manufac
turers. I do not contend that the rates on
woolen manufactures in tho bill are not suffi
cient to protect us against too severe foreign
competition, but the limit of the consumer's
purchasing power must control him in buying
woolen manufactures, and I fear the rates of
the new bill wi IL very materially restric t con
sumption. (
This is practically saying to Dingley,
Aldrich and the other servants of the
protected manufacturers at Washington:
"Go slow with your high duties and
don't try to protect too many. If you
let everybody into the protection ring,
there will be nobody outside to prey
upon and we will have to prey upon
each other. Don't make th8 mistake ot
taxing raw materials too high. We
wouldn't mind it if we could sell our
goods and charge the tax over to the
consumer. But when the tax is so high
that we have to make our prices almost
o it of sight we have found that we can
not sell so many goods, because the peo
ple can't afford to wear clothes-that
is, woolen clothes, which are the only
ones worth considering because they are
the only ones which we manufactura
Our solicitude for the dear American
consumer is such that we do not*wish
to compel him to clothe himself in the
skins of beasts, which are neither fash
ionable nor healthful Let us not tax
him to death. Let us be reasonable and
encourage him to live and to wear
clothes. By so doing we can keep our
mills running and give employment to
American workingmen at American
wages, which, after all, is the chief ob
ject aimed at by us protected manufac
turers. "-Byron W. jHtflt
The Protectionist Performance.
The following is a part of ex-Ccn
gressman John De Witt Warner's criti
cism of the Dingley bill:.
"As it stands the most brilliant part
of the pending performance consists in
eating the words of the same actors in
the Fifty-first congress. The McKinley
bill of that date was virtually entitled
'a bill to reduce revenues. ' The Dingley
bill is specially commended as a revenue
getter. The McKinley bill pointed with
pride to the poor man's free breakfast
table. The Dingley bill puts upon sugar
-a single item of the breakfast table
one-third of the total amount of the
tariff tax proposed. The items which
are supposed to help the farmer are good
examples of so setting your trap as to
'cotch 'em a-cumin and a-gwine.' For
instance, we have reciprocity in order
lb' ive the farmers a market abroad for
what it is assumed they cannot produce
for home consumption unless they are
highly protected, as is done by another
section of the bill. "
Senator Sherman at His Best.
Every advance toward a free ex
change of commodities is an advance in
civilization. Every obstruction to a free
exchange is born of the same narrow,
despotic spirit which planted castles up
on the Rhine to plunder peaceful com
merce. Every obstruction to commerce
is a tax upon consumption. Every facil
ity to a free exchange cheapens commod
ities, increases trade and population
and promotes civilization.-John Sher
man in ISO'S.
The Beef Trust's Tithe.
If congress can advance the price of
hides 2 cents a pound in this country,
tho people will pay several millions a
year more than they do now for their
boots ;;wl shoes, and the money will go
into the pockets of tho Beef trust
