(Mr. Whittam formerly resided In Char lotte and is now in this country, hav ing recently returned to ,iake his report to the government Qinciais m Washington. - The editorial in question-folks:-'. .:iV:,-' , "Mr. William Whittam, the 'com mercial agent of the United States, has recently glvea an interesting ro port to his government on the sizing of cotton goods in Lancashire: It is a practical contribution towaras an an swer to the question which is con stantly agitating our American friends whether they may expect to Increase largely their trade in cotton goods with countries where Lancashire Is al ready well established. - Mr. Whittam does not deal with the relative costs or production and the economic ques tions involved, but on the technical point he knows what he is taming about, and he assures the American manufacturers that If they wish to make a serious attack on the Indian trade jn particular they must learn o size their goods after the fashion of the Lancashire manufacturer. In cidentally, he ' gives an .' interesting sketch 1 of the evolution of i sizing, which originally, was intended merely to give the warp strength to stand the strain of weaving. Later, size was used largely for the Immediate pur pose of deception, though in a trade which can only be stable If it be sup ported by repeat orders it might seem that this deception would be speedily followed by disillusion. "For the last two or three deoades," says Mr-WhlU tarn, 'this important section or tne trade has been carried on with near ly complete -; freedom from ; fraud.' Many natives of tropical countries adopt the principle that ohce gave a considerable trade in paper collars to this country, and they know perfectly well that their garments win not sand washing. : It .does-not seem ..a happy system,, but Mr. Whittam believes that "it is a permanent one,' or rieaacthat It will yield very slowly to an in creased purchasing power. . Already the .United .States do a considerable export , In " cotton goods, particularly with China, but most or these . are lightl" sized, and indeed, if report may he believed, nave sometimes owed their success to the comparative puri ty of the cotton. Every .trade is hampered by some kind of conserva tism, and while the Americans con tinue, It seems,, to make their goods too pure, we sometimes ' lose ground through adhering to the old style of filling. : The moral Is that markets should be carefully watched, and that when we are supreme we should our selves try to exhaust the poaeibilltles of competition, or course, ir our com. pernors can make suitable goods as cheaply as we can, it is impossible to ke.jp them out absolutely. If , they make headway in staple goods at our expense,we must ask ourselves wheth er they have jmy-advantage-in auto matic machinery, for In other respects we should be able at least to hold our own." : .

Consequent ly he. accepted the terms, with the proviso that all over $1,200 should go to a leading association of ladles.
