A Monster autobiography Meeting.

On our first page will be found 8
speech of the Hon J. ;. Black to a
mass meeting in New York. 1t is a
powerful presentation of the anti-mo-
nopoly side of the argument now before
the American people; and will be read
with interest as it relates to a subject
which is receiving a large share of
attention.
While Judge Black lays down sew
eral principles which are ineontroverti-
bic as to the right of the Legislature to
prevent discrimination and abuses in
Railroad charges, much that he says in
regard to abuses practiced by the cor
porations applies to New York, Penn
sylvania and other States where they
have grown to be institutions of gigantic
proportions in wealth and power. In
the use of the power of control which
exists, care should be taken to exercise
it intelligently and with moderation in
order not to discourage these essential
corporate enterprises in communities
where the need of them is felt. 1t is q
delicate question which should be han
died with strict impartiality and with
due regard to the public welfare in all
its varied phases.

Hale Carpenter, of Wisconsin, the
Republican party has lost one of its
most Independent thinkers and most
brilliant orators His speech before the
Electoral Commission in behalf of the
claims of Mr. Tilden, who was elected
to the Presidency in 1876, will probably
survive all his other productions. 1t
was magnificent specimen of Webste-
rian logic and eloquence. Here is the
opening sentence

WHITTIER Are We Drifting p

This inquiry is made pertinent by the
proposition, expressed by o few news
papers, and limited by others, that the
next canvass in this State should be
shaped with reference to the Revised
Code of 1880. This suggestion is of
evil tendency, and should be promptly
rejected by all who desire to preserve
the ranks of the Democratic party UNI
broken in the face of the foe, which
may seek its overthrow. The Code is
not the work of a party. 1t consists
chiefly of what was the law before, 1t
embodies almost the whole of the Codes
of 1871 and 1857, with such statutes of
a general nature as were contained in
the pamphlet acts of the Legislature
from 1871 to 1873, and has few and
very few new provisions. As to some
of its provisions there may well be
differences Of opinion. We have our
selves objected to some of them. But
we have never dreamed Of making them
a cause for sweeping condemnation Of
the Legislature which adopted them, or
for disrupting the Democratic party. If
any of the provisions of the Code,
whether old or new ones, are such as
the people do not desire to preserve as
part OF their statute law, let them be
repealed or changed to sHit their will,
but the proposition to lug into the
issues of the canvass this year the Code
as q whole j. fraught with mischief.
That would he to array the people
against each other with respect to what
has constituted the main body OF the
statute laws Of the State for many years.
and, because Of perhaps a very small
number Of provisions, 10 divide the
voters with reference to the whole, in
which for many years a'large majority
have acquieaced without an effort for
change. The provision Of the Code
that. no property shsll be exempt from
seizure for rent, was taken from the
Code u 1851. and - perhaps u others

A Protective Tariff Inquiry.

In the House, Mr.. Chalmers, of Mis-
sissippi, introduced preamble and res
olution to the following effect: That
whereas the only excuse for a protective
tariff is to encourage infant manufactures
and protect the free labor of the United
States against the slave and pauper labor
of foreign countries therefore to secure
the benefits extended to American labor.
ers the Secretary of the Treasury shall,
as soon as practicable, ascertain and
report the cost of producing in foreign
countries all articles ON which custom
duties are now levied, and the cost OF
producing the same articles in the Uni
ted States; and whenever the cost of
producing any article which has been
manufactured or produced in the Uni
ted States for ten years, shall be less in
any foreign country than the cost of
producing the same in the United States,
then the custom duty on such article
shall not exceed a sum equal to the diff
ference between the wages paid to labor
ers in the foreign country where such
article is more cheaply produced, and
the wages paid to laborers employed in
producing the same article in the United
States, with the cost of transportation
added thereto.
We agree with the ST. Louis Repub-
lican that this is fair proposition for
the modification of the tariff 1t COW
ers the whole case as presented by the
protectionists themselves. Their plea
is that certain American manufacturers
who employ free labor at good prices
cannot compete with their foreign rivals
who employ slave or pauper labor at low
prices, and that they need duties to
protect them against ruinous foreign
competition. every well, replies Gen.
Chalmers, :'you shall have protection
to the extent you Say it is necessary,
but not beyond that The proposition,
fair as it IS, viii not be acceptable to the
protectlonists. They want a tariff high
enough to keep out the foreign article
entirely, and give them the whole mar
ket to themselves, with the right of
charging their own prices for their fab
RIGS.

There can no longer be any doubt
that the Republican party of Mississip-
pi, which since 1875 has been quieseent
so far as State politics is concerned,
has determined to make during the
coming canvass a vigorous effort to re-
capture the power and the places from
which they were hurled six years ago
Emboldened by the result of the Presi-
Dental election and by the success of
Greenback, Independent and other dis
organizing movements in several coun-
ties, the Republican leaders, in con-
junction with these factions, have re-
solved to make desperate effort to re-
gain control Of our State government.
The very mention of the fact revives
the recollection of the horrors of Radi-
cal misgovernment, and appeals to every
Democrat and friend of law and order,
and just and economical government to
be prepared for the contest that is to be
precipitated upon them.
Before the conflict opens we want
to say word in kindness yet in firm
ness to the misguided men who may
contemplate allying their fortunes with
this fragment of a defeated and desper-
ate party. Agreeing with the Demo
cratic party as to the evils of Republi-
can financial legislation in the interest
of the privileged classes and the money
power, but differing with them as to the
proper means of reforming these evils,
when warned that they were organizing
an opposition3 which might result in
a restoration of Radical rule, they have
denounced those who thus warned them
as calumniators and slanderers. If now,
in contempt of their own professions
they turn their backs upon all their
professed principles and ally themselves
with the party which has wrought the
very evils of which they have COM
planned they must no longer object to
having melted out to them the same
measure of reproach so justly dealt out
by the people of this State for those
with whom they have linked their for
tunes.
We assure them that the people of
Mississippi do not propose to have it
handed over to Radical control, and
that those who attempt it will fail.
With right and justice on the side of
the Democracy-with its record of five
years of administration which compares
with Republican rule as the brightness
of day compares with the darkness of
Democratic party will not
fear an appeal to the deliberate judge
ment of the people expressed in "a
full vote, free ballot and a fair count"
