The N. Y. Tribune says: It does not
appear that the Democratic party has
made successful war on auythiug except
the American 6heep. Of those it has
slaughtered about 8,000,000 already, or
more than a sixth. In reoeut comments
on the statement of Mr. Justice about
prices of wool, it was observed that the
domestic production had been greatly re
duced. There is now published the
official estimate of the Natioual Associa
tion of Wool Manufacturers, which has
l»eeu regarded for years past as the most
trustworthy, showing ths production of
wool this year. The weight per fleece
has only slightly diminished, but the
slaughter of sheep has reduced the yield
about 54,000,000 pounds in two years.
Practically, these two years of Democracy
have set this industry back where it was
fourteen years ago. For the estimated
production this year, 294,296,726 pounds,
and the destruction of sheep sinoe April
1 has undoubtedly lowered the productive
capacity considerably further.
The
Agricultural Department reports 39,949,-
388 sheep April 1, against 47,273,553
January 1,1893, and the slaughtering at
the few Western cities which keep records
therefore has been remarkably heavy
within the last five months.
A bulletin issued by the bureau of
statistics of the treasury department
shows an excess of imports of merchandise
over exports for August of $15,215,529,
aud for the eight month ended August 21
of $26,505,518. The same period last
year showed the exports to be in exoess

NOTES AND NEWS.
T he Line Wiped Out.
Chattanooga, Sept. 18.—If one may
judge by events of the last two days
Mason and Dixon’s line has been wiped
off the map. The friendly, brotherly
feeling that has been displayed here this
week and that which was shown at Louis
ville last week by the boys of the gray
towards the boys of the blue prove« that
bitter sectionalism that so long divided
the Union, no longer exists. For nearly
a fortnight now the doors of the South
have been thrown open to the men who
came here thirty odd years ago bearing
arms of slaughter and destruction. Not
a single incident that would indicate a
feeling of hatred on either side has been
recorded. “Yanks” and “Johnny Rebs,”
grown gray with years, have gone over
the great battlefield together, discussed
events of those awful days, drank together
without stirring up anything like an
angry thought
Generals who com
manded armies for tbs Union have been
guests of generals of the confederacy and
each has solemnly deelered that there iB
no “North and South.” “Events of today-
have bound us together us nothing else
oould have done, aud the solemn yet
joyous events of tomorrow will seal the
tie forever.” So spoke a memorable
soldier of the North to one of the South
at Grass Hill today. Aud the latter
answered with tears in his eyes: “Com
rade, you are right, shake hands.” And
they did. Chattanooga is an energetic
town, and its people did as much for the
entertainment of their Northern visitors
as any one could wish.
