Ohio Wool Protection Debate Shapes State's Future

Ohio faces a political fight over wool protection despite its small production. The argument centers on using a high protective duty to shield Ohio markets from Texas and other U S wools, potentially altering state constitution to enable duties. Prices for Ohio wool have declined since the protective idea surfaced.

Treasury order on consular invoices sparks importer complaints

A local communication condemns the secretary of the treasury order requiring collectors to accept only consular invoices for all consignments. It argues the rule harms small imports, increasing costs and delays, and notes a February 19 1884 department circular. The writer, C J Folger, calls for suspending enforcement pending reexamination.

Slow steel cruisers fail to restore naval power

Boston and Atlanta, each 3000 tons, completed before 1885 with no speed conditions, cost 2,448,000 and yield little real navy value. They cannot chase fast steamers, and even heavy fire would leave only scraps. Congress should secure at least 20 knots for Chicago, Boston and Atlanta, or risk useless ships.
