i THE CHARLOTTE NEfrS, APIRL8.1908. 8 Bolivian Markets And Industrial Notes Special Agent Charles M. Pepper writes from La Paz, February. 12, con cerning the Bolivian market for tex tiles and leather good?, and points out how goods from the United States of ' certain quanlities are in demand; also lurnpware that will meet peculiar con ditions of an elevated, climated. He says: , In treating the Bolivian market for textiles a point upon which some mis conception still exists to be cleared up. This relates to the discrimination formerly favoring Peruvian and Chil ean products,, under which they were admitted, into Bolivia at lower tariff rates than articles from other coun tries. In consequence. Peruvian cotton , goods had an advantage over similar goods from the United States, England, and Germany, while it was the com mon belief that other textiles which appeared as Chilean or Peruvian ex ports had their origin abroad. Under the commercial conventions which Bo livia negotiated with Chile and Peru in 1904 and in 1905 these tariff con cessions were abrogated, and since July 1, 100t, all foreign imports have been on the same basis. So in consid ering the market it is not necessary to analyze prices affected by tariff discriminations. No Tariff Discrimination Now. Before the treaty placing Peruvian . importations on the same footing as those .-from other countries went into effect the market was flooded with "tocuyos." the coarse, unbleached cot tons which, were manufactured by the Peruvian mills, some dealers laying in a two-year stock, and most of the stores in La Paz are still drawing on that supply, but this stock has been reduced to the point where replen ishment is necessary, and purchases are now on a normal basis. The tariff on cotton goods nominally is 30 per cent ad valorem, but there are many classifications based on weight and fix ed appraisal valuations, so that the duties are really specific. The market has some geographical distinction. Southern Bolivia and the larger section of the interior, including most of the towns and cities and the tropical regions, secure their importa tions through the port of Antofagasta. Northern Bolivia, of which La Paz may be said to be the distributing cen ter, imports through Mollendo. The larger market is that supplied through Antofagasta, and it is controlled to some extent by Valparasio. Different Classes of Goods Needed. There is also a difference in the qual ity and classes of goods distributed to the different districts. The Anto fagasta importations, reaching as they do the tropical regions of the coun try, cover the bulk of the lighter fa brics and prints. The central plateau with its colder climate calls for heav ier gooda,, which are, imported through Mollendo. The output of the Peruvian mills that is imported is. marketed almost entirely in northern Bolivia, geographical proximity affording some compensation for the loss of tariff ad vantages. The mills- are Arequipa have only to pay the freight 200 miles to Lake Titicaca and then across the lake, so that naturally they are the chief Preuvian source of supply. The classes of goods imported from the different countries are so well de fined that the competition at present is not very marked except between Eng lish and German prints. The "tocuyo" or coarse cloths of the Peruvian mills have now come to have a general trade significance, and, as applied . to foreign importations, mean all kinds of unbleached cottons. I am assured by large importers that American "to cuyos," after a hard fight lasting sever al years, now have a permanent posi tion in the Bolivian market. It is one of the rare instances in which they have secured an advantage over Man chester. The Indians of the plateau want a very coarse article, heavy to the touch, and this is supplied by the Peruvian tocuyo. The medium finish of the Manchester mills is not liked. The larger call is for toccuyos with a good finish, and the American mills furnish a better finish than the Eng lish mills. It is this finish which has established the demand for them. The Markets for American Cotton Goods. An estimate given me of the impor tations of tocuyos during the present year, assuming favorable trade condi tions, as follows: . . From the United States 8,500 bales; Great Britain, 4, 000 bales; Peru 2,500 bales. This should dissipate the notion that there is no market in Bolivia for American cotton goods. Gray domestics find special favor in the northern section, and drills and flannels from the New England mills are well displayed. Some of the mills of the southern part of the United States have tried to introduce their prints, but it has to be stated that their efforts have not met with encouragement. Importers -say that in price, pattern, style and' uesign, Dut especially in price the southern mills have not been able to meet Europeans. The line of future rowth therefore seems to be chiefly in supplying the unbleached goods ! the 'olk of an egg and a dash of cay which are satisfactory both as to . enne PePlcr. As the oil falls, drop by cheapness and quality. Some of the drP from the smallest groove mix importing firms which handle Ameri- thoroughly with an egg-beater.

The bleached goods which T-i-h ttTh ? ' some of the Peruvian mills are now I DeHneaior last-The turning out are so far from supplying- the home demand that no attempt has been made to pnt them on the Boliv ian market. , - English and German Competition. The trade in prints continues largely in the hands of Manchester, though German competition in supplying in ferior and more gaudy goods is making itself felt, and prints, make a profita ble share of the importations of cot- j tons from Germany. Notwithstanding that the German goods wear out so much sooner, the Indians seem satis fied with their attractiveness and cheapness when purchased. Impovta- tions from Germany ulso include many , cotton mixtures sold as woolens. The fine native wool is spun and woven by the Indian women on primitive looms into shawls for themselves, and ponchos for the men, and these arti cles of native product heretofore have had a valuable domestic market. But Germany is now supplying shawls and ponchos of cotton and wool, dyed more brilliantly than the native article and very hard to distinguish from it in texture. One dealer who had been sup plying interior points with native shawls and ponchos discovered that three-fourths of Lis stock was of Ger man make. Colored shirtings from Germany of a fair quality are sold at a pru which insures an active demand.- In both the cheap and brillian' and better grade, Germany lead, competinng in the form the bright yarns of the fine -aery, dyed s the r with native wools. Cheap colored German hand kerchiefs also lead. In a cheap grade of cloths for men's wear used by the Indians Manchester is now beginning to compete with Germany. Felt hats, which are worn almost universally by both the men and the women of the Indian class, are imported from the district in Austria that is noted for this class of manufactures. Finer hats are supplied from England and Germany, but their sales is not large. In carpets, for which there is a fair demand, England has the advantage. The market for fine dry goods is limit ed to the wealthier classes of La Paz, Sucre, Cochabamba, and the other cit ies, yet the aggregate is not inconsid erable. This trade is supplied by France, Germany, and England, the United States not being a factor in it. PRINT CLOTHS AT FALL RIVER. Many Inquiries, But Trading Unsatis factory and Very Small. Fall River, Mass., March 27. Trad ing in the print cloth market has con tinued through the week in the same unsatisfactory state that has marked it for many previous weeks. There have been many inquiries, but when they were worked down to sales the results usually, when there have been any results, have been very small. More often than .not the manufacturers have declined to consider the prices offered. They declared that some of the demands made for concessions leave no margin for profit whatever, and that they will increase curtailment rather than make such concessions. They are making good these declara tions and curtailing more. The out look is distinctly not good and it is the general expectation that the pro duction will be reduced to half the full normal output before March is out. The total of sales for this week is estimated at about 50,000 pieces The ! cumstancef would seem to make desir goods were sold in scattering sni;ali7abIe.,!l'The ;training -of the child ' on 1 & lots and were practically all odds. There are a few small contracts to be made under the schedule of partial operation through April and May, but most of the trading has been in spots. Narrow goods are held at the basis of 3 1-4 cents for regular 28 inch, 64x64s. There is no demand for stan dards, but they could be had at this basis. Wide goods are held at the bas is of 4 1-2 cents for standard 38 1-2 inch, 64x6 is. The curtailment of the week in goods of print cloth yarn construction figures 75,000 pieces, leaving a net production in , these goods of about 355,000 pieces. Of these probably one half were added to the stock. Cotton Growing in Angola. The Governor-General of Angola in Africa is seeking to put before inter ested parties the inducements which are offered for growing cotton in that province. He has made the follow ing statement: "The Portuguese Government is most desirous of encouraging the cul ture of cotton in Angola. To this end it has distributed good-class seed such as sea-island. Moreover, the hut tax is payable by the native in cotton. Recognizing the difficulty in getting capital in Portgual, the Government is prepared to offer, and now offers; to put. foreigners on. the same footing as Portuguese subjects as regards ship ment, etc. Briefly, the advantages are: Free export to any port; free import of all seeds, tools, appliances; the con cession of land for the growth; assis- i tance by the local authorities in get ting labor; the payment of aprcmium by the Government to growers of con siderable quantities. The principal cotton-growing district is served by the railway, but orders have been given for the cleaning of the River Bengo, thus affording a natural highway to the sea."

Tompkins;) 'Tne child should never be worked for profit to its injury. "Equally no child should ever be al lowed to acquire habits of idleness. "To' save a child's mental and physi cal resources for their best develop ment, or for any good development, it is essential to provide wholesome ac tivities from infancy and to provide for the guidance of these activities in a way to make a training for the moral, intellectual and physical welfare of the child, youth and man or woman. "Nature endows every healthy born child with a restless activity. From the moment of birth the infant reaches for whatever is in signt, and but for the restless spirit with which it is en dowed, the child would not learn to walk or talk, or do those infinite things necessary to its sound development. "On the farm the opportunity for the exercise of the endowed faculties of the child in a wholesome way far exceeds that of the city, unless the city condi tions be more or less suitably con strained to suit wholesome develop ment. Hence the tendency is for hu manity to be drawn from the farm to supply the loss which is constantly be ing incurred through the degenerating influences of city life. Among the chief deficiencies of city life are, (1) the lack of light training work, suit able to the age of the child; (2) recre ations in fresh air which are so essen tial to the best development of mind and body, and (3) a complete quaran tine against evil or even a knowledge of many evils. "The child who lives ixi the country suffers from none of these, to an ap proximate degree as compared with those of the city or factory town, un less great care and influence is exer cised to counteract the adverse influ ences. "The best protection and care of children naturally comes from their care by intelligent and good parents. No laws or rules of training can be made which will aproximately take the place of such care and training. "We may well, however, supplement the parental care with surrounding fa cilities which may be of great advan tage to the child. "The training of the child on the farm is largely by a natural apprentice ship system. The boy or girl, growing up under care of parents on a farm naturally learns, and at an early age, all the everyday operations of the farm. These operations are practiced with such limitations as age and cir- I farm begins at the tender age and the work of training increases as the child grows older. The increased work does not generally have to be forced, but the taste for work rather tends to in crease with age. "In the industrial life what is wanted is some system under which the work of training is not forbidden,, but is en couraged by some influence as whole some as that of the good parent. , It is important that the wont of training should be begun while the child is yet young. This it has been touna m men tal training of children. The cry of the teacher has ever been, "Give the chil dren to us younger," always younger, until now they have three-year-olds in the kindergartens. "It is of course essential that kin dergarten teachers dealing with in fants should have the same care for their welfare as good parents would ordinarily have. There can be no pos sible rule which could be formulated in law for the care of such infants, and yet depending upon judgment, care and solicitude for their welfare, the very early guidance both of the mental and physical training of children is im mensely advantageous in their prepara tion for a life work. It is not meant to say that certain restrictive laws may not be at times necessary, but legisla tion upon a subject concerning which judgment and discreation are such im portant factors, is very liable to be come sumptuary and hindering. If we depend too much upon law, we are apt to arbandon responsibility. In some instances it is very easy to create and project systems under the best sort of care and judgment, and in connection with which no legislation at all is necessary.. "In machine shop work I have for mulated an apprenticeship system which I think requires no legislation. We started in years and years ago with apprenticing boys at sixteen years of age. We are now satisfied that this is entirely too old and that it is better to commence an aprenticeship system at a younger age. Yet at. such younger age it is necessary to have the boy carefully guarded against being work ed to his physical injury. Therefore this apprenticeship system incorporat ed the idea of putting each apprentice under the care of his journeyman work man. A journeyman workman of dis cretion and good judgment is selected and provision is made that he can send the boy home, or reduce the amount of his work, or send him out to play,: or require him to do light work, all very much as the good parent on the farm deals with the child growing up on the farm. The contract provides that the apprentice must go to school in school term. It provides for -a vacation which should preferably be spent in the country on a farm. Such an ap prenticeship may extend from 10 years of age to the time of graduation at col lege, according to the time that mental education allows for the practical train ing and leaving time for recreation. This apprenticeship contract is as fol lows: Apprenticeship Agreement. This writing is evidence of an ap prenticeship contract this 190, made by and between THE D. A. TOMPKINS CO., "...

The certificate Class A. will be given to those who serve a full apprentice ship term and make an average of 75, or above, but who are unable to attend a school or college as required above. The general shop average for the full apprenticeship term will be determined from the weekly report cards handed in by the department foreman.

In a machine shop a boy may be assigned light duties or no du- "eLaLallexpt to..wait " e 3r:i uejuicii. iu me colioii mm tue cnnu must either work or not work. Yet it i would seem as important that the chil-j dren about a cotton mill should have some opportunity for training work, and that it should be under the care and discretion of some one who will not permit it to be done to excess. The North Carolina law on the subject of child labor makes some such limita tions. It permits the working of chil dren under 12 to 13 years old for a limited time in the same year. "I am inclined to the opinion that the industrial educational movement of the Young Men's Christian Association has great promise for regulating the sub- ject of child labor and of child train ing, and of eliminating child idleness the work being on lines which brings to bear judgment upon the subject, .the same as. in the case of infants in kin dergartens, having mental training for:; children on the farms. "Wholesome influences are more nearly akin to parental .influence than legislation could posibly be. , I am satis fied that there is an excessive appre hension about" injuries resulting from child labor. None could be more Soli citous for the proper care and training of children than 1. But yet I am sat isfied that the dangers of child idle ness are as great or greater than the dangers of child labor. The tendency of al the sentiment is too much to for bid child labor, and to be too careless of child idleness. The work of the .Christian Association'' will naturally Itake care of both ends of this business. day of This work if properly done would be of immense advantage to the cotton mill management who have done so much for the welfare of all the opera tives, but particularly the welfare of the child. If the care and influence of the Christian Association workers can be brought to supplement the work of the mill managements and at the ! same time supplement, the parental care with further good influences, then we will approximate in the cotton mills the conditions which exist on the farm where the parents' are intelligent and good people. 'This is in reality the process of Christian civilization. "The betterment of children is deep ly involved in the betterment and wel fare of the .'paint. It would be exceed ingly difficult ever to formulate a law which could effect the parent for better approximately as much as good Chris tian influences ajid. good wholesome care for recreation can do for both par ent and child when coming from an or ganization like the Y. M. C. A. Besides these betterment influences the indus trial education which is being organiz ed by the . M. C. A. will be immensely advantageous in qualifying the people about the mills to do better work and thus earn beter wages. This furnishes a material advantage which has a big influence for the general welfare." MOROCCO MORITURUS (Edwin Maxey in the April Forum.) Upon the question of the sacred right of self-government we hear a great deal of rot. This is due in large part to the fact that so many look upon self-govern ment as an end instead of a means, whereas all government is but a means to an end the securing of those condi tions which render possible the reali zation of a larger life. AVhether one form of self-government contributes more than would another toward the realization of this is a ques tion of fact which must be considered not with reference to all places in gen eral but with reference to the par ticular places in question. For it no more follows that because a given form of government works well in one place it will therefore necessarily work well in anotherthan it follows that because furs are suitable material for clothing in the arctics they must therefore be suitable in the tropics, or that be cause wood is suitable material for building houses in some places it must be suitable material for building hous es in all places. To determine that a I given form or kind of government is the best, without regard to the condi tions under which it is to operate, is as irrational as to fix upon the kind of medicine a person should have with out first finding out the disease from which he is suffering or studying the strength and weakness of his constitu tion. But it will be urged that each people are the best judges of the kind of government they need; and while this is generally true it is not necessari ly true. A raving maniac cannot judge as well what he needs as others can judge for him, provided these others are in better mental condition. If the Moro- cans4 dntiirue ttrttfay1 the 'part of rav ing maniacs, it wil become necessarv to deprive them of their ability to in jure themselves and others, by substi tuting for the inefficient control which their present government exercises ov er them, a control which will harmo nize better with their own welfare and that of others.
