For an outlay of $l $50 ,O00, increase of capital in mills, spindles aOd looms these people receIve $1 ,50S ,Sz0 per annum net revenues, and they actually, by their own accounts pay less money for female wages All other expenses are less than half; as, for instance, flour they use 4,00O bbls, which tev buy for S4 50, and in 1887 they gave $10, ,l2, saving of $20 .OOO out the farmers.

 In the face oi these official figures, contin- ually told that these factories consume all the farm produce and employ all ihe people. Another striking fact is, that Lawrence Mills employed in lS43, ,07O hands and in 1883, 1,l50; or it has reduced it's hands by 80. and increased the quantity of cloth made from l70, 900 yards per week 10 2lO0O0 yards per week; printing cloths, sheeIngs and shirtngs, with 80 less hands, they make 2,000, 900 yards per annum more cloth. And to do ihis they increased the machinery and steam works $3000O the in- terest of which is paid in the reduced price of flour and coal. They consume, to make this increased quantity of coh 65.0OO pounds of cotton per week. which costs them more money than the 56,7OO lbs they used in 1883 The increased quantity of cloth made is worth Sl6000O per annum, and IS clear pro- fit in excess of those made in 1883, and equal 10 II per cent ofthe capital. This is the manner in which factories employ Americans, and if we add that all the high priced hands are from the English factor les, we shall have toerable idea of the extent 10 which "home ndustry'' is encouraged by corporate factories. We Lave also indication of the impos- sibiliIy any domestic competition to destroy the monopoly of these corporations The only competi- ton can come from abroad that will reduce their profits 10 reasonable rales.-[N.
