FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1895.

UP to August of the current year the United States imported $40,000,000 more of woolen goods than during the year 1894.

AMERICAN farmers are unquestionably at the head of their business, and there is good reason to believe that American fruit-growers will occupy a similar position before many years.

BOSTON last week received 2,414,500 pounds of foreign wools. The fact is respectfully referred to the sheepraisers of the United States, with the compliments of the Democratic party.

CHICAGO Inter-Ocean: Another beauty of the Gorman-Wilson "tariff for revenue only," that doesnt raise revenue is seen in the fact that the imports of hides and skins for the eight months ending with August show an increase of $13,000,000, or more than 300 per cent, above the imports of the corresponding eight months of 1894.

WHEN Democrats promised things would be cheaper under "good old fashioned times" they did not intend to run steel up 88 per run and run down wheat to 49 cents and corn to 25 cents, and potatoes until it would not pay to [dig them from the hill. With the multitude of idle men clamoring for work there has been a very small advance in wages, even where prices of commodities would justify it.

REV. WM. MACAFfeE, pastor of the Methodist church at Columbus, thus defines Christianity: "Christianity is not a creed. It is not a doctrine. It not an ecclesiastical system. It is not a church. It does not consist of this or that number of men, gathered together under some appropriate label., Christianity is a spirit. It is an iniluence. It is a life. It is a species of character. It is a {quality of conduct, and as such is far wider, wider immeasurably, than any tabulation of it that has ever been made."

THE Farmers' Mutual Benefit Association of this State has cut loose from the Populist party. At their annual meeting held at Indianapolis last Tuesday resolutions were passed to the effect that the Association would would have nothing to do with the sub-Treasury or any of the plans advanced by the Populists. The Association in the future will be conducted in the interests of the farmers without any references to politics. The Association has undertaken the formation of farmers' insurance companies in different parts of the State, and will push the work of inducing all farmers to join these companies.

THE exports from Great Britain to this country is an interesting study. The Britishers declare that the new American tariff is eminently satisfactory to them. Of course it is when of cotton 51,000,000 yards were exported from Great Britain to this country in nine months of 1895, against 30,000,000 yards last year. Exports of jute yarn and line yarn more than double, exports of linen good increased from 59,000,000 to 103,000,000 yards, and exports of hardware and cutlery increased about 40 per cent. But the most startling change was in woolen goods. British exposts to bhis country were 10,602,000 yards woolens, against 1,207,700 last year, and 54,964,400 yards worsteds, against 10,931,100 last year, besides 523,400 yards carpets, against 112,300 last year. The increase in the exports displaces that much American labor and gives it to Great Britain.

CONGRESSMAN FRANCIS H. WILSON, of Brooklyn, has just been abioad, and while there gave close attention to industrial conditions. In England, he says, business conditions were better than they had been in twenty years. Wilson has written to Mr. Nat McKay as follows:

I meta manufacturer of cloaks in London, and he informed me that the manufacturers of woolen cloths in England are doing better than they have done before for twenty years. I think we would naturally infer this from a comparison of our imports with our exports for the past few months. Several Englishmen told me that they were entirely satisfied with the Wilson bill. It's good enough for them. Some of my friends here here who are handling woolen goods are feeling very blue, and say that it is impossible to keep the New England mills running under the existing condition of things.

THE THEASTTRT.^

The Cincinnati Enqu/trer is a "Demo cratic paper without guile. It has a Washington correspondent to furnish it the news from the fountain head. On October 22 its correspon dent at Washington furnished it a special which it printed, double-leaded, and with scare head lines equal to the Corbett-Fitzsimmons prize fight, litre is the dispatch in full:

Treasury officials whose duty it is to make up the estimate for the next fiscal year have begun their task, and they find it anything but an agreeable occupation. It is said to be impossible to further reduce the expenses of this Government, and a prominent Treasury official made the statement to-day that the paring indulged in by the last Congress could not be cut deeper without absolute danger to the public business. If this conclusion be based upon sound judgment the only alternative that presents itself is the discov ery of some method whereby more revenue can be secured, and this is the problem the incoming Congress will be called upon to solve. Five minutes' survey of the Treasury official figures will show the condition in which that institution now finds itself, and seem to prove that but little of all the money raised by the sale of bonds for the ostensible purpose of maintaining the gold reserve has been used for such purpose.

The present Administration has sold three installments of bonds, as follows: Fifty millions in February, 1894, and fifty millions in November, 1894, both lots bearing interest at 5 per cent. The sixty-two and a half millions were sold in February, 1895, at 4 per cent. This makes a total of 6102,000,000 of gold poured into the Treasury by the present Administration. To this sum must be added the 820,000,000 in premiums these bonds brought, which makes a total of $182,500,000 of gold through the sale of bonds. When this Administration came into power there was on hand an aggregate of $124,000,000, which, added to the proceeds of the bond sale, make a grand -.total of $306,000,000. That represents the amount that should have been in the Treasury had not the bond proceeds been used in the payment of current obligations. -To-day's Treasury statement shows the actual available cash balance, including the gold reserve, to be but $175,000,000.

By the simple process of subtracting this 8175,000,000 from 8306,000,000, the total deficit of $131,000,000 that has occurred under the present Administration is easily ascertained.

Of course, the bonded debt has been increased $162,500,000, and so long as it remains unpaid there is a fixed annual interest charge on that account aggregating $7,500,000. These are some of the figures with which Treasury experts engaged inj preparing Mr. Carlisle's annual report will have to deal.

FROM reports filed in the office of the Secretary of State of Nebraska it is shown that the first two weeks' work of the season at the Grand Island beet sugar factory has resulted in the production of 400,000 pounds of sugar. This represents a value at wholesale rates of about $20,000. The bounty to be received by the manufacturers from the State on this will be something like $1,500. As the farmer is paid $5 a ton, and to make this amount required 3,600 tons of beets, the farmers's share will be $18,000, to pay for the raising and delivery of his crop. The Norfolk factory has received 5,017 tons of beets and has manufactured 360,000 pounds of granulated sugar. These two factories are distributing among the farmers about $1,500 a day each. The manufacturing season last about three months. The same average kept up give an output for the kseason for the two factories -of 4,560,000 pounds of manufactured sugar.

JUDGE SHIVELY, of the Wabash Circuit Court, has a level head. He will not issue a decree of divorce until all the costs are paid up, including attorney fees and newspaper bills. For the most part the costs in these kind of cases are never paid, simply because the class of people who seek divorces generally are not worth the powder aod lead that would blow them to Halifax. If all the Judges in Indiana would adopt Judge Shively's rule it would relieve their dockets of a large number of undesirable cases and cut down the number of applications for divorces to a wonderful degree.

TJIERK are forty pictures in the opening chapters of Lincoln in McClure's Magazine for November. There are five very interesting and little known portraits of Lincoln, including the early portrait, now first published and showing Lincoln before his face lost its youthful aspect. These chapters deal very fully with the fourteen years Lincoln lived in Southern Indiana— and contain recollections of people now living there. There are many pictures of the scenes of Lincoln's early life published here for the first time.

Los ANGELES Times: Steel rails recently advanced about $6 per ton at one jump. Such an advance, had it occurred under the McKinley law. would have furnished the free trade editors with texts for numberless columns of editorials on "the iniquities of protection," "tariff robbery," "moopoly," etc., etc. But now, in the opinions of these sapient editors, the advance of prices is only an indication of "reviving business." It is real funny.

THE fact that wool is selling in Ohio to-day for about half what it was worth before the passage of the present tariff law will enaole a good many Democrats to vote the Republican ticket.

Other prominent and well known people endorse and recommend Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy as the greatest,best and surest cure ever discovered. Such famous

WHETHER Harrison be nominated or not the next national Republican convention must endorse the Harrison administration, and the campaign must be fought out on the line marked out during the four years that Harrison was President. The McKinley law with all the prosperity that it brought must be endorsed, and the Gorman law with its adversity must be donounced. Since the Gorman bill was passed there has not been a single new industry introduced from a foreign country into this country. That is a mark of prosperity that the Gorman bill is powerless to place upon this country. It was an accomplished object of the McKinley bill. Was there a single industry driven from the country by the McKinley bill? No. On the other hand, the Gorman bill has driven the plush business from the country. The plush business only one of expelled by Gorman bill circumstances. -5'

IT is believed that when the order iB issued by the President placing fourth-class postmasters under civil service rules, it will also include in the classified service internal revenue deputy collectors. It is intended to keep as many Democrats as possible in office all over the country.

THE tariff question can not be considered settled when the existing policy is running the Government into debt at the rate of 850,000,000 a year. It is neccssary to have an income equal to the outgo, even if a little tariff tinkering has to be done in order to accomplish such a result.

IN the Argentine Republic, instead of fining a drunkard they sentence him to sweep the streets for eight days, and a similar punishment exists in St. Petersburg. But the drunkard maker goes scot free.

It is peculiarly valuable as a nerve tonic, and I can recommend it to all as an excellent tonic for the system."

It is not a patent* medicine but the prescription of the most successful living specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, Dr. Greene, of 35 W. 14th Street, New York City.

IN nine months of last year, to September 30, we sold $562,288,257 of American products and manufactures. This year, to September 30, we sold only $546,427,8S9, or $15,860,368 less than in 1894. This is the stupendous "increase" in our export trade that the free traders are shouting about. This is the way they capture the markets of the word—in their imagination.
