That sterling commercial paper, the New
York Bulletin, of the Sd inst, devotes q
leading editorial to the financial affairs OF
the Manchester Print Works In New Hamp-
shire, one of the largest textile manufac-
tories In New England. When engaged IN
the manufacture of cotton goods, the COM
pany made nearly half million dollars
year. During the war when weoIen goods
were in great demand, the company chang
ed its business to the Manufacture of
wooden fabrics; made money while the war
lasted, but since has lest heavily, and until
it was carrying debt of $S,870,000. The
great fire in Boston necessitated the calling
in of considerable part of this loan,
and the Manchester Print Works
has recognized by sinking a
large portion of its original capital. The
Bulletin says:
sBut the fact that great company, real
izing clear profit of over half million of
dollars year ON cotton goods, should be
swamped by manufacturing certain wooden
goods, affords another striking commentary
on the policy ofthe wooltariff. The wool3n
trade, although the most enormously pro-
tected business in the United States, has
been for several years past the most losing
and Improbable industry In the country. =
A pretty high tariff on wool for the BEN
eft of farmers, took the sugar out of "pro-
tec.ion" for wool manufacturers. The
above facts are instructive as showing how
impossible it is to benefit all industries by
fairly taxing all alike under the name of
"protection." Whatever bounty Congress
generously gives to one class Of citizens, il
must virtually steal from other classes.
Congress never works and earns the money
it votes into the pockets of its favorites.
Who does the labor that gives existence 10
the bounty?

PROTECTION TO THE CITIZEN.


PROTECTION TO THE CITIZEN.
In late address to farmers, B. Il. Hill
of Georgia said:
"Protection to the citizen is the duty of
the Government. That protection must
extend to all civil rights, such as, to hold
property, make contracts, sue, givs evil
dence, inherit, bequeath, and everything
which pertains to the security and enjoy
ment of life, liberty and property. Now
the government of which q person is pri-
marily citizen, is bound pri-
marily extend this protection, and
must have the primary .jtriS-
diction 10 that end. II, then, the fourteenth
amendment has made citizenship of the
United States the Iprimary citizenship,
then the primary protection of that citizen
ship is with the Federal Government, and
the primary Jurisdiction to extend the pro-
lection is in the Federal Government. But
if this primary Jurisdiction is
in the Federal Government, then
the State governments can only exer-
ciss such jurisdiction subordinate to, and
under the supervision Of the Federal Gov
eminent. In these few brief words 1 have
feebly presented the question of all ques-
LIODS lDE AL Lu6 peOpiO Vi LIS Oullou OLdISS1
and the one on the solution of which hangs
all possible hope in the future for the South
ern states and people. 1t will settle whether
you shall be paupers and slaves, or indie
pendent freemenw
Solar as the Constitution grants ''primary
jurisdiction" to the Federal Government it
possesses il fairly and properly; but over
tee many and invaluable rights and powers
reserved to the people and the several
States" the Federal Government has no
more primary jurisdiction" than has
the Parliament of Great Britain.
Unfortunately it is in the nature of any
large power like that of Congress, to usurp
additional powers, it may be little by
little, or by gigantic strides, and attempt
to hold the same in perpetuity with the
tenacity that Gen. Grant clings to his one
hundred thousand dollar extra salary.
The most prominent protection to the
citizen of the United States is the every
day practice Of robbing, by high protective
tariff, nearly forty million people to make
few favorites very rich. The intrinsic value
of such protection and its cost to the coun-
try are just beginning to be- understood.

CAMPAIGN TALK IN MISSISSIPPI.

CAMPAI&N TALA In m1SSISSIPP1
The st. Louis Times quotes from Ham
Ca, ter-the Mississippi negro lesder-as
follows:
"It happens said Ham, that you, not
we, must succumb. You may not like it,
but there is no help for you. We have the
numbers, and do not propose to yield an
inch. You may think this Radical, half.
negro, hslf-carpet-bsg, moDgrel government,
as you call it, inSufferable. 1t will become
more and more iLtolerable to you. You
must educate ali these cOlored people. We
make you pay now for four months school
ing for our children; you shall pay for nine
months per alnum. You must stand aside,
too, and be satisfied to see Us manage all
the affairs of the county and State. You
don't like It, see you DON'T continued
Ham, 'aEd if you can't bear it, and get into
that new state of beatitude you were fixing
up at jackson, Tenn, let me advise you,
young nan, let me urge you afectionately
go westr"
Yet any Southern white man, remarks
the Times, who presumes to take umbrage
at this insolent and menacing sort of bravado
is set down by our Radical friends as an
unreconstructed rebel, who has yet to
learn that the equality of races is settled
thing, and that full and exact justice must
be done to the negro. With such state of
feeling existing on the part of the black pol
it!cians Of the South, aided and abetted as
they are by incendiary advisers, blacker at
heart than themselves, is it any wonder
that the conservative party of Virginia
should make white government an issue in
the pending election? Is there any really
candid and right-minded citizen who can
censure their course or who does not hope
for their success?

There will be no State election in Ten
nessee this year, and no canvass for either
Governor or Federal Senator. Yet the
Memphis AUdlGnche asserts that 'there is
a secret canvass making with more or less
vigor In all part, of the State by dozen or
more ambitious citizens who aspire to fill
the uneasy seat occupied by Governor John
c. Brown" Possibly the AUalGnche knows
what it is talking about: perhaps it is tell
ing tales out of school on ''patriots" of it
own class. We kCow there are many such
restless ones on the aux Gus bench; but the
great mass of the people are SO well salts
fed with Governor Browns administration
thus far, that they are net worrying about
the succession. But what does the AUd-
LGnche mean by ssking-"Will the Bour-
bons be brave enough to force on the
Democratic pSrty a candidate of
reactionary ideas? Will they be
brave enough to take fdnder? VIII
they take back salary grabber ?" Now,
who are the Bourbons? Is Gov. Brown a
Bourbon? What reactionary ideas" are
spoken of? Is "fnnding" now the law, or
not. Does the AoGIanche propose repeal
of the funding law, or its defeat through
non execution? Would not such course
be in the worst sense reactionary ?"-re-
acting to the damage of Tennessee credit,
both public and private, now and for all
time. AS to the shack salary grab" we
think the people, through their journals, all
over the State, have not minced the matter.
Our own views have been often expressed.
Is our Memphis contemporary in earnest,
or is it setting up man of straw, that can
Only frighten fools?

THE st. Louis Republican states that
Senator Logan, of Illinois, has declined to
go over to Iowa to defend platform which
declares that the retroactive salary act was
