col. JOE JOHNSON IN 1925.

We reinsert the extracts made by correspon-
dent of this paper from Circular published by
Col. Joseph Johnson, in the year 1925 emitting
our correspondents parenthetical comments SO
as to give the tex! in all its unequiyocal
distinctness. We hope to be able soon to place
the whole document before our readers.
Col. Johnson was first elected member of
the House Of Representatives in 1928, during the
second Presidency of Mr. Monroe, which ex-
pred with the same Congress in March 1875
In that Congress, the important measure known
as the tariff of 1924 was enacted. 1t distinctly
recognised the principle of protection to domestic
manufactures, and has been often said, and we
believe correctly, to have been a more protective
tariff than the act of 1912. This fact must be
borne in mind, in order to appreciate the full
force of Col. Johnson's declaration that "be-
lievng it right to encourage home industry, to be
independent Of foreign nations, to encourage an
American system, he gave his support to the Ia
riff"
The subject of Internal improvements was
also much considered in Col. Johnson's first Con-
grass, and hence the aptness Of his avowal to his
constituents, that he held the constitutional.
question TO be ''setted." Returning to his dis
trict, he became candidate for reelection, and it
seems that he did not fail to sustain his opinion
on the question Of power, by suggesting to the
voters two important projects to which it might to
be made to apply, and in which they were parti-
cularly interested. As an illustration to show
how naturally Col. Johnson's mind came to
adopt the most liberal view of the powers Of Con-
gress in regard to internal Improvements, any
newspaper antiquary may find, in the file of the
Richmond Enquirer for January 1925, an article

The Hon. r. J. Walker has written to the
Mayor of Southampton in England rather curl
GUS letter about Kossuh. He disclams for him
the agrarian doctrines which the French social.
lists claim that he holds; and, upon this hypothe~
SIS tenders him for America the warmest well
come. In the meantime it seems that Kossuth
has got into some difficulty with the commander
of the Mississippi, and may not visit the United
States at all, because our non.intervention theory
does not suit his ideas of the proper mode of adj
vancing liberty in the world.
