JANUARY 22. 1896 "A TRIUMPH FOR FREE WOOL." The exports of our 'woolen manufac tured goods during the eleven months ending .November 30, amounted to $bS5, 898, against $676,740 in-the correspond ing eleven months of 1894. It cannot, therefore, be doubted that our woolen mills are now doing better than they have done. This is a great triumh , for' free wool, which the Wilson tariff gave the coun try. N. Y..Herald,' January 11, 1896. 21 r. James Gordon Bennett's un Amer ican paper shows that our exports of American woolen goods were $9,158 more during eleven months cf protection to wool in 1894. This may, indeed, be re garded as "a great triumph for free wool.'ian increase of $33 per working day in the output of all American woolen mills, 2,500 in number, or an average of of 13 cents added to the value of the daily output of each mill, half of which goes to labor, so that 6)4 cents per day could be divided among 155,657 wage earners as the direct result of the "great triumph for free wool." We have not deducted the increased woolen imports which, last year, tronvJ the United Kingdom alone reached $19, 000,000 more than in 1894, without any figures from Germany or France, where Mr. Bennett's partisan friends are un doubtedly drinking success to American free trade. The loss of $19,000,000 of our woolen trade meant an average Iobs of $7,600 in the output of each and every one of our woolen mills last year, to be charged against the increased 13 cents worth of business per woolen mill per day ac quired throughtbe capture of additional markets of the world. We believe that Mr. Bennett's state ment that "It cannot, therefore be doubted that our woolen mills are now doing better than they have done" is slightly at variance with the truth. These results, however, certainly show that "this is the great triumph for free wool" when one becomes "triumphant" over the destruction of American in dustries. Economist. : Governor Lord's promptitude in re sponding to an eastern newspaper's in quiry as to the numerical strength of the state militia was no less remarkable than is bis tardiness in answering the query of about a score of Oregon news papers as to why he does not call a spe cial aeesion ot the legislature. His ex cellency seems to be more interested in Cuba's struggle for freedom from Span ish rule than in Oregon's appeal for re lief from oppressive taxation. Evening Telegram. . This is lively imagination. Governor Lord is not more interested in the Cuban insurgents than in Oregon's appeal for relief from oppressive taxation ; but he doe 8 not call an extra session because be knows that outside of the political ring Bters in Portland and a few of their hire lings in other parts of the state, no one wants an extra session. We would rather let bad enough alone, without making it worse. i A bale of goods from Europe is a de pressor of American wages under a low tariff. The American manufacturer without adequate protection must meet the European price or suspend opera tions, and he can meet it only by reduc ing the cost of production, which is mainly labor cost. Add this to the fact that laborers of the cheapest, and often the most degraded classes, are pouring into this country to make the competi tion sharper among wage-earners, and it is perceived that the right method of advancing wages in this country is, not to try to fix wage rates by governmental deciee, but . to build higher the tariff barrier against foreign goods and to im pose severe . restriction upon immigra tion. The Press, N. Y. Political Gossip. Political gossip is beginning to appear in the etate papers. It is yet too early for candidates to be announcing their intentions, and the imagination of news paper men has a full field for its exer cise. An Eastern Oregon paper says that A. S. Bennett of The Dalles may poesibly be the Democratic nominee for the- supreme court. - This, however, we think unlikely, as Judge Bennett has been a candidate for that position twice already and the chances for electing a democrat to the supreme court are no .better now than thev were two or four ears ago. The Tribune Eays that there is a mild suspicion that Judge Charles H. Carey of Portland could be prevailed upon to take an active part in the con gressional -fight - in the First district. Whether or not this may be so, Mr, Ellis will not be .without competitors that will make the contest in the con vention interesting. It is about time that John C. Leasure was arising to an nounce that he would make a good con gressman. JVLr. Leasure, after moving to Portland, eeetus to have been lost in the political shuffle. From now till" convention time there will be abundant opportunities to make and unmake candidates with the rapid ity of a kaleidoscope. Mew Candy Store. W. J.
