English Gold and American Guile, Cleveland Plain Dealer. England is now .md ever since she became a creditor nation has been opposed to bi-metallism. She wants very honest money and there is no honest money with England except dear money. It is absolutely absured to except England to enter into international or any other bimetallism. If England thought that all the rest of the world would adopt bimetallism she would lift up both hands in holy horror, and there would be such a complacent honest smile about her tace as never was kindled by a Shylock. England intends to be the exchange of all tho rest of the world; she wants to hold the clipping from every dollar that passes in the shape ofexchange from one country to another. Generally what is for the interest of England is for the disadvantage of the United States. If England wants free trade the United States | ought to oppose it. England is differently situated from I any other country in the world. She is a little island with many ships; her business is manufacturing shipping and loaning money. She subsidizes all the rest of the world to her own

interest.

It is painful to see the Sherman subterfuge, an international binetallsm, approved by so many of our people. It w r as never anything but a political makeshift. No thinking man has ever expected England would join in it; she never intended to; she was willing to lend just so much of her influence as she thought might induce other nations to go into it, but England never. She stands on her bonds, and like the Shylock of Shakespeare

says,“I will have my bond.”

We have said repeatedly that this money question is a national and not an international question. Every nation has its own money. When it trades with any other nation and there is a balance to be paid from one to the other, it is always paid in the money of the creditor nation. For instance, if wo buy from England we have to pay in pounds; if we buy from France we pay in francs; if we buy from Germany we pay in marks, and our gold is simply melted down to its equivalent in the money of the country where we pay the debt. The same is true when other countries pay balance of trade that is due to us. is paid in our own money, nothing less, and this talk that we want a dol lar that is good the world over arrant folly. There is not a country in the world where a gold dollar is worth anything more than simply its I bullion value measured in the country 1 where you try to pass it. American dollar are not current in London any more than pounds sterling are current i in the United States. Each country

must have its own money.

The sooner we stand up squarely 1 and fairly and adopt honst bimetallism, the sooner we shall be fair and ; hovest to producer and consumer, to

debtor and creditor.

Reckless is the protectionist who at tempts to justify the operations of the McKinley law and especially to assert that its woolen schedule was beneficial either to the wool prodneer, < the manufacturer or the consumer, but the Republicans have the timerity | to assert that tho operation of the ! Wilson law has caused a loss of40,000, | 000 to the wool growers of the United > Slates. J usf how this loss has been | occasioned, however, the Republicans i fails to explain. Every farmer who has sold wool knows that since the tariff has gone into effect the wool market has shown a more active and general demand and the old prices have not only been sustained but advances in prices have been made. Not only is this the case as to the price of wool, but the enlargments, improvements and the starting up ot new mills, with increased wages for labor, constitute anything but gratification to the calamityites. Free wool has

But they fail to explain why the prices of domestic wool has increased, why woolen mills are running day and night to fill orders and why tho wage, nf employees have been increased.—Miami County Sen

wood, says the Chicago Journal, not only in tho form of lumber, but also in the manufacture of articles of commerce. Hardwood lumber is now considered game big enough for the best of the lumbering fraternity. As the pine resources of the state have become exhausted the successful operators in that line are turning their attention to hardwoods, bringing into it the same methods and energy which characterized their dealings with pine, and the increased demand makes their opera-

tions financially profitable.

Where a decade ago there was one hardwood mill in northern Michigan there are now a dozen, and the number is still increasing. An important factor in the industry is the small mills scattered all through the country along the railroads, on the lakes and in the interior, near the standing timber, but far from the usual haunts of the traveling public. The big mills operate on much the same lines as the modern pine mills, and some of them can reel off anywhere from seventy-five to one hundred thousand feet of lumber a day, while the rural back country mills are often primitive affairs, with a capacity of from five to ten thousand feet a day, with water for motor power, and often with facilities attached for grinding wheat for the farmers. These small mills are individually insignificant, but in the aggregate they add millions of feet of hardwood lumber to the annual product of this section, and aid materially in tho development of thecoun try and in bringing prosperity to tins

section of the state.

In hardwood lumbering operations are conducted on different lines than in the early days of pine lumbering. Of the pine fully as much was wasted as ever reached tho market. The early lumbermen went into the forests entirely reckless of the future. They slashed and slaughtered, destroying everything in their way, and left the country barren and waste and worthless. The state has thousands of acres of waste land to-day so poor and barren that weeds will scarcely grow, and it was thus left by the pine lumbermen, who abandoned it as soon as the forests were removed. The hardwood lumbermen are proceeding with more discretion and wisdom. They are sparing the young trees and saplings, that they may grow up for future cutting, and in si me camps young trees are being planted to replace those cut down. But the hardwood lands are of a different character than tho pine lands. When the forest is removed a rich soil is left behind for the fanner to cultivate. The farmer is following close in the wake of the hardwood lumbermen, and the demand for hardwood logs of all kinds aids him very materially in getting established. The timber on his land has a cash value at the nearest mill or railroad station, and the money thus earned will tide him over until he can realize on his crops. All through this section will be found farms, many of them new and still thickly dotted with stumps, but some that are as rich, as well cultivated and handsome in appearance as will bo found in the state. This section is especially adapted to potatoes and fruit, and has in the last four or five years become famous for its crops. Every fall commission men come here to buy the crops and ship them out to other parts of the country. In the development of the hardwood resources of northern Michigan the Indian is a factor that must not be overlooked. The Indians do not lumber on a big scale, nor do they do it systematically. The Indian farmers often haul logs to market, but the largest consumption on their part is to manufacture the Indian baskets for the summer resort and export trade. These baskets are made of black ash, and, as they dc net know what economy U it. the use of tho raw material, one tree will not go very far. The Indians are making baskets all the way from Traverse City to the Straights of Mackinaw, and each year many monarchs arc sacrificed. They also make baskets of birch bark, and many trees are annually stripped of bark to supply them

with material.

A noticeable feature of the hardwood operations of the lumbermen and manufacturers is the strict economy ol>served in tho use of materials In marked contrast with the methods that used to prevail in tho pine mills. Nothing is allowed to go to waste and the dump pile is unknown. The sawdust is used for fuel and the timber that cannot be used is converted into firewood, in which form it finds a ready market at profitable prices. No kind of timber that grows is looked upon as worthless, and any kind of a log the farmer brings in lias a value and will bring cash at the mill or railroad station The pine resources of Michigan brought many millions of dollars into the state, but in real richness and widespread benefits the hardwood forests will yield

far more.

A Maine Industry. If exactly the right thing could be hit <jb, there would bo industries that would make tho agriculturists, audeengeqneutly the other inhabitants of every itato in the Union prosperous. The dairy cow did this for Iowa. The corn cannery is doing it for Maine. Corn would bo the last product one from a more southerly state would expect to be profitable in Maine, since as a field crop it will only occasionally mature at all, owing to early frosts. Yet the fact remains that, aero for acre, tho Maine fanner makes more money out of his corn crop than the Illinois farmer does. The Illinois man raises corn for hogs, the Maine man raises it for cau-

uing.

The corn canning industry is now practically in the hands of Maine men. About 130,000,000 two pound cans of sweet corn are put up there annually. If wo should enter an African jungle, we should probably find an empty ccm tin from Maine there. The business i thoroughly systemitized.even to the kind of corn the agriculturist plants. It is a sweet, small grained variety, which has been found by experience the best for its purpose. Tho factory supplies this seed to tho planter. L T »ually each man sows two or three acres. Counting all cost, tho crop nets the farmer $60 to $70 the

acre.

The factory pays from 1 to 2 cents a pound for the corn after it is cut from tho cob. The farmer has this ready money. Ho hauls the husks and cobs back homo and feeds them along with the leaves and stalks to his livestock. They

are a valuable food.

The advent of a corn cannery in a farming neighborhood is a sign of coming prosperity to that community.

The Irish Republic.

There is rich satire in tho cable dispatch which was sent from London to that convention in Chicago, exhorting tho Irish of America to stand unitedly for the freedom of the country. If the Irishmen of Ireland had stood united, oven those of them in the British parliament, home rule for Ireland would now bo very near, if not an accomplished fact. It might not have been actual independence and an Irish republic, such as many of Erin’s patrons in America are clamoring for at the safe distauco of 8,000 miles, but it would be such independence as a state of the American Union enjoys, which is enough for anybody. Only for the disastrous splits and subsplits of the Irish members of parliament the Conservatives would never have returned such a majority in the present parliament. Under the circumstances it looks well, does it not, for Irishmen in London to cable to tho delegates to the convention of Irish Nationalists in Chicago to “stand united:” If Irish independence could have been achieved in America, the thing would have been done long ago. Money and eloquence have poured from this country across to the Emerald Isle in a steady stream. Meantime while they wait it still eases tho minds of Irish patriots in America to meet in convention and proclaim themselves tho implacable foe of

England.

There was an auction cf silks in New York city recently in which goods to tho value of $150,000 were disposed of. Tho notable feuturo of tbe sale was that most of the vast quantity of silk, 7,500 pieces in all, was bought by southern merchants. The south is prospering today as no other section of the country. Tho south did not feel the panic as tho north did. With its mild climate crops are much more certain than they are in the north. Its vast resources have not even been scratched over as yet. With good roads, good schools and a public sentiment that will let men vote as they please and speak their minds the south can reach out and capture three-quarters of the migration that now goes on toward the northwest. She will boom into such prosperity as she herself never yet dreamed of.

EtnUinh fruit tumiuissiuii doaloTn are playing a dirty British trick on both their customers and the orchard ists of California. This year large quantities of California fruit have been shipped to Great Britain. Some of it is in prime condition, other lots not so good. The prime the English merchant sells as choice English grown hothouse fruit. The rest, which is mean and poor, he calls American fruit and sells for w’hat he can get. By calling prime California grapes and apricots English hothoneo products the British dealer has in some cases realized 1,000 per cent profit on

them.

In the next instalment of “The Day of Their Wedding,” W. D. Howells’s new serial story now running in Harper’s Bazar, the scene is laid in Saratoga on a fair summer day. “ ‘It’s sightly,’ murmurs Lorenzo. ‘Yee, it is,’ assents Althea.” The young couple whose "Day” it is are Shakers, who for love of each otdier have elected to leave the communal family in which they have lived from childhood and to become a part of the “world.outsido” that until now they have only known from hearsay. They lay aside their Shaker garb for the conventional habiliments of fashionable life. They strive to suppress the quaint “yee” and “nay” that leap eo treacherously to their lips. They want to “conform to the '«orld-ontside.” Mr. Howells's delineation of their naive experiences in such alien surroundings ig infinitely tmusing. Low Rate to All&ula, Ga. The Vandolia Line wil.
