THE TARIFF.
Among the extraordinary changes of interest
and opinion with which this country, so fruitful in
such changes seems about TO he visited, is that
relating to n new ADJUSTMENT OF the tariff, u sub
iect that must come up for The debera;ion of the
new Congress. II may in all probability he found
that large portion of The north will be ant-tari
while larger division of The south will contend
for an increase of duties certain articles of i'm.
portation
There are plain indicons TINT the Louisiana
ans are about to marshal ,hrir energies for such
an augmentation of the sugar duties will effec-
tually protect this article; while the extension of
the cotton manufacture in those parts Of North
Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia that possess
water power adapted TO thu purpose, indicates thai
new combination is about to rise in the south,
by which it will change positions with the north
in relation to the tariff. The northern (cottonl
manufacturers who have been sustained under
the existing and previous tariffs, require no in
creased encouragement from increase Of duties,
while they are of course adverse TO more siren
uous competition with those establishments at the
south now in their Infancy, md which having the
advantage of the raw material at their doors
would be troublesome rivals, if TO this advantage
was superadded the further benefit of increased
protection from Congressional legislation. IL
would appear then that we are about 10 behold
the tariff controversy renewed under novel com
bnaiion of circumstances. part of the south
would seem about 10 reverse its principles with
the north in relation 10 this agita,ing and nri-
cate question.
From The Mobile .4dp. FEB. |.
The TmiE-The most grave and important
question which will come before the next Con-
eress, and one, too, which must come, is The re-
adjustment Of The Tariff. This will be among The
first duties of the new administration, and the
manner in which it shall be discharged will prob
.bly have powerful influence on the popularity
of The administration Of Gen. Harrison. we
have Every confidence, however, that this mos
intricate md hitherto exciting subject will he ap-
preached in ouch spirit, and be finally so al
;usted as TO meet the exgencies of the nation
and promote the various interests Of all sections
of our comnson coiint-y, without injury or oppo
si,ion TO either. 10 effect this, in the presen
excited state of the public ,.nind, we are wei a

every confidence that it will I've dGne' ana ina' ln'

NATIONAL, DEFENCE.

Within short pc iod-since the election OF
Gen. Harrison, by the way-we have noticed TINT
some OF the locoioco presses are very ready TO nd
init that the whole nation is almost entirely de-
fenccess, so far as frlifcaions are concerned, n
gainst foreign enemy. And why this admission !?
Oh, simply to find fault with those Wings who
would not at once vote, some years ago, forty mil
lion dollars OF more at 'one fell swooI' for fortif
cations We say simpIy this but this is mol ali;
those locofoco politicians, who have SO long sriv
TO rob the old thirteen of their title in the pub
lie lnnds, now loudly join in the same admission.
with The design OF defeating just and equitable
distribution of the land fund, according to tile
deeds of cession. But we ask, why should these
men complain Of our Notifications crumbling to
The dust, and our navy neglected? Who are gull
", if it I've not themselves aud their own masters ?
Nobody clearly nobody. They have had the
power; upon them rested the obligation to use it
and against their ,cise use of that power there
have been none TO Object. We know that the
wild projects To devote the entire proceeds of the
public lands, and the millions of surplus, for forth
fcations, have been rejected 1t was right, for the
reason that every III ng Of this sort was uonecessa
ry Without this, had the administration studied
economy and acted wisely, ii had means ample to
maintain the Notifications in existence, and to
have progressed rapidly in increasing and strength
ening the means of national defence. The gov
ernment did have means enough. In The four
years since March A, 1887, The expenses of the
government have been one hundred and hIty-fpe
millions of dollars, being much more than ti1ice
The amount expended from March A, 1924, to
March 4, 1928, (52 mons,) We say then, the
administration did have ample means. The mis-
iake was that it poured out its millions in increas-
ing the number and pay of its officers, and in
fat contracts to its parlizas, instead of repairing
oar forts aud increasing The Navy. We have had
more than one striking proof Of This truh we
have seen Congress itself grant ample appropra-
lions for the civil list (ihe salaries of the office
holders aud give nothing for means Of defence
yea, we have recently seen that body actually en-
power the President to stop the public works
and he did do it,-no longer ago than Ammo DOM
mi 1910 but when, 81 hen did we see lOcoioco
Congress take one step towards retrenchmcnt and
reform in the civil department of The government
In view of these facts it is worse than vain Tor The
locos to complain about our lack Of means of de-
fence: they do thus condemn themselves.
