HOW SIl'CH SHODDY.
iviercrtatits anu consumers would nftP
U they knew bow much bhoikly McKin
Icy put In "all-wool" goods.
A practical dyer, MrP M Street, whose
occupation in finishing woolen fabrics
gives him an opportunity to know the in
side of the business, w rites in a communi
cation to the World, September 15, as fol
lows: "It is past belief the amount of
shoddy that is in goods sold as all wool,
and parties bringing such goods to us fre
quently get indignant when told it is
shoddy, for when buying they were told
it was a fine article and sold for such. I
tell you it wuiild surprise the people and
disgust them if it was possible for them to
realize how little wool enters into a so
called 'all-wool suit.' Even the merchants
would gasp. There Is an argument started
now, to sell this mixture, that it makes the
goods stronger to put cotton In it. A
base lie, as everyone knows, who has
worn the goods, that its color soon turns
rusty, dull and muddy, and the first damp
ness draws it out of shape. It is almost
impossible to buy a good suit the last
few years."
The Oobsons, leading carpet manufact
urers of Philadelphia, are reported as au
thority for the estimate that of 55,000,000
pounds of carpet material user1 in this
country 10,000,000 are clean wool (equiv
alent to 27,000,000 of raw wool.) 20,000,
000 are shoddy and 25,000,000 other
Jnixuires. 1 lie mtttum i.tfiH'irn itu iwirif .

an extreme protection journal, speaKing w
the carpet manufactureof Philadelphia, in
in June, 1SS9, said "That city turns out
the cheapest carpets, both In grade and
price, in the country, being a very large
consumer of cow hair, the cheap substl
stute for wool."
A petition presented by the working
men of Philadelphia, largely employes in
the woolen industry, to the Fiftieth Con
gress reported that ingrain carpets, largely
used bv the masses, and which were form
erly made largely of wool, are now made
of an average of one-fifth wool and four
fifths adulterants, and that in the whole
carpet industry of the country probably
not a million pounds of domestic wool are
used,the use of cheap.coarse foreign wools,
best adapted for the manufactureof carpets
and which are not grown in this country,
being greatly restricted by the tariff, and
which restriction, although onerous before
1S90, was greatly increased under the Mc
Klnley act, namely, fiotn 24 and 30 per
cent aJ'va'oremt 0 32 and 50 percent, And
here we find a probable explanation of the
curious fact that, while claiming to ma'ne
more carpets than any other country, we
were able to export or sell to foreigners in
1SS9 only 5,670 yards, while Great Britain,
in the same year, with her free-wool
policy, exported 12,090,000 yards. How
is such an experience likely to be remedied
in any degree by the negotiations of
tieatics of reciprocity or the maintenance
of a high-wool tariff?
IT WAS A MISTAKE.
Readers of the Democrat remember
that this paper took exceptions to the ad
vice given by Senator Hill in his Elmira
speech on the tariff and silrer questions.
The . New York World which is verv
friendly to the senator is publishing ex
tracts from leading democratic papers all
over the country taking the sume view of
the speech .
Such papers as the Indianapolis Sfhti
nel, Wheeling Register, Salt Lake Tribune,
Wilmington (S C) Slur, IlelcnawKywm
rut, Kansas City Tmn. St Louis Rrfablic,
Raleigh (N C) Stair Chronklc and scores
of others are outspoken in their opposi
tion to this policy of do-nothing proposed
by Senator Hill, The senator will very
soon modify' his speech.
We are told by republicans that Maim;
and Harrison "understand eaeli other."
Well, maybe they do, but the same cannot
be said of their friends, if we are to judge
by the spectacle presented at scores of re
publican primary meetings held in Indiana
v. few days ago. lilaine and Harrison men
fought all over thestate for tic ascendency
and it was no uncommon thing for their
meetings to become more boisterous than a
democratic club meeting at Five Points in
New York city. The tight between lilaine
and Harrison is ou'and harmony will now
grow beautifully Ics.
Senator I clph being criticised by are
publican paper for inviting Senator Hill to
a dinner which he gave a few days ago says
when lu gets so he can not eat with a dem
ocrat lie will retire to private life. The
cenatorhas wisely concluded that if he can
do no other good for his constituents, he
will, at least, keep good company. This
spirit was evidently drilled into him when
be was a boy.
CA convention was held in each of the live
congressional districts of Philadelphia Wed
nesday to select d"Icy,itei to Die republican
national convention. !elegatcs favorable
to lilaine were elected at all the conventions.

rongriwniun llulmunof Indiana, chair
iimm of the appropriation committee lias in
troduced a resolution dcelarint; it to be the
judgment of the house that the granting of
subsidies, or bounties by emigres in public
moneys, bonds, or by a pledge of the public
credit to promote special private industries
or enterprises independent of constitutional
power of congress, is unjust, impolitic and
ill manifest conflict with the spirit of repub
lican institutions. The resolution further
resolves that in view of the present condition
of the treasury, ami liecinse efficient and
honest government can only be assured by 11
frugal expenditure of the public money,
while unnecessary ami lavish expenditures
lead innvitably to venal andcorrupt methods
no money ought to he appropriated by con
gress, except such as is manifestlynecessnry
to carry 011 the several departments frugally.
lhciently and honestly administered.
Thi stirred 1111 the reiuiblican members
who were members of the last or "billion
lollar congress." and Head was so much
moved that lie actually opened his mouth
and spoke a half dozen words loud enough
to be heard across the aisle from liim. The
most significant thing is that republicins
in congress are using all their powers to
thwart the democrats in theircffort to econ
omize in public expenilitu'.i", They raise a
hue and cry about the above resolution, but
every man who feels the weight of taxation
increasing will endorse the spirit and pur
hose of the resolution.
The Oregonian enters a very mild, half
hearted protest against the proposed gerry
mander of the congressional districts in
Ohio in such a way as to give republicans
ieventeen and dennxTats four members of
lonirress. Its opposition is clotnea wun
words but there is 110 spirit or zeal in it.
We repeat what we before said: lemocrats
of hio have 110 right to c- niplain for they
did just what the republicans propose now
to. do. Democrats are nether more nor
less fair than republicans about matters of
this kind. Hut as Harrison protested so
strongly in his message against the "Mich
igan plan." the least he can do is to protest
against Ohio republicans doing those very
things which, if done by democrats amounts
to a crime, lint the president is a first
class politician and will secretly bid Ohio
republicans (iod speed.
