BETTER PROSPECTS.

The dark clouds which have so long broo-
ded over us so full of disInay and gloom, we
trust, are about to break away. The night is
Aeeting the morning cometh; brighter day
is, ere long, to dawn upon us A national feel
ing, both patriotic and cheering, is struggling
into birth. Men are beginning to realize the
necessity of effort, and this united with re-
trenchment and economy, will assuredly be
crowned with success. An AMERICANA
HOME INTEREST NOW MORE JUSTLY CHER
IsHED. In almost every part of the land our
citizens are arousine in response to the cali TO
PROTECT AND EXTEND THEIR INDUSTRY and
when we begin thus to depend on ourselves,
we have reason to take courage. Our resour-
ces are ample-there is bone and sinew enough
among us, if it is but once brought into full
and fit action. The merchant the manufac-
turer, the agriculturist, every class and section,
need but to combine their energies, and not
even the arrangement of our currency, our
heavy State debts, our hindered works of i'm
provement, nor any of the causes that have
seemed TO threaten us with irretrievable ruin
need any longer dismay us. The NATIONAL
EXECUTIVE Is WITH US, as is seen by his mes
sage recommending a sufficient revenue to be
raised by Il duty on foreign imports, and this
too, with suitable discrimination in favor of our
own industry.
Happily those discussions the question, how
far duties on imports are necessary for our pro-
lection alone, need not now be discussed, since
it is well known that tariff, sufficient to meet
the expenses of Government, will, if judicious-
ly laid afford security against foreign importa-
tions, andnot disappoint the expectations which
have been excited by former Administrations.
An Exchequer plan, too, is proposed, affording
a good II not an abundant currency, with great
commercial advantages. In the examination
of any plan of settled policy, we must remem.
Der the contingency of wal, (which we pray NAV
DE long avoided, but will ever be preferred to
national injustice or disgrace
We repeat, then, that there is better pros
pect before us. Let each patriot come to the
rescue, and aid in the adoption of the recupe-
rative measures now proposed. Let none for
get that political aspirants are watching for
personal adyantages,and would see the country
suffer many years to come, rather than find
blessings flow from other hands than their own.
With a true love of country, and spirit of
comfy and compromise, we trust that the pro-
posed measures of relief will be sanctioned by
q decided majority.

PROTECTION OF HOME INDUSTRY. The cot
ton growing States have controlled the coun-
ellis of the nation quite too long. The relative
importance of our respective interests may be
thus summed up:
Cotton in value, S64, $4,000
Total results of Agriculture, Ss794,000,000
Total of Manufactures, 1924, 100000
1t appears then that this famous cotton crop
for which all other interests are to be sacrificed,
is less than one-toeIfh part of the Agricultural
production ofthe United States less than one
sirlh part of the Manufacturing products, and
less than oNE-TwENTIETH PART Of the annual
production of the United States.
4 TARIFF.-We are happy to learn from
Washington that the committee on Manufac-
lures are actively engaged in maturing Tar
if bill, which will soon be presented to the
House. We are not without hope that the
light which is breaking from the far East will
open the eyes of our Southern friends.
