RATS DESERT \ II z SINKING SHIE.
Zone by one the roses fade" and piece by
piece one portion after another "of the pro-
tective system and allied Issues" is renounced
or questioned by the awakening partisans Of
the monopoly that was SO rampant and
boasting at the protection conference in
Chicago last fall. The announcement now
comes out that the protection policy is one
with which the Republicans, as party, have
nothing to do, for the results of which it
is under no responsibility. Deliver mt
from my friends" is sometimes very earnest
prayer, and that prayer appears to be granted
to the monopolists. How they will get Oh
without friends; how they will flourish wheE
left like the heroine of a sentimental novel
abandoned to the sole support of her own
virtue" remains to be seen. The New York
Times says a Republican caucus of the
House OF Representatives has decided to
push the tariff commission bill. That
journal objects to such action, as no
caucus can control the Republican
majority in regard to a measure which does
not "embody principle recognized by the
Republican party" the tariff commission
"doee not involve necessarily any Republi-
can principle whatever" True, the Repub-
ican platform of 1850 held that "the duties
levied for the purpose of revenue should so
discriminate as 10 favor American labor"
but the Republicans may trust the Presi-
dent TO appoint on the commission men
"who will revise the tariff in the interest of
American labor as a whole, and not in the
interest of the fave rsd capitalists who now
get all the advantage from the tariff" Pro
tecting labor the pretense, and protecting
capital and monopoly the reality-is not
this a heavy stigma with which the pot
brands the kettle?" "If," says the Times
"lhe commission bill is intended to lie
the purely protectionist measure which
It's advocates represent it to be, then it has
no claim at all on Republicans" The Re-
publican Times goes on to say that as an as
sertion of "protection for the sake OF protec
ton" the commission investigation scheme
is no Republican measure; that "the mo-
nopolists are the only ones who have any
real interest in maintaining protective
tariff, and that they are very active, persist
ent, ingenious and INSCRIPTIONS in further
ing their interests. The interests Of the great
body of the people are opposed to such
tariff. In the very nature OF the case protec-
ton is temporary device" Western mem
bers of Congress are also becoming eloquent
upon the subject Anderson, OF Kansas, and
Bedford, of Colorado, at the Republic
can caucus spoke OF the narrowness OF
the protection position, and the extreme
danger which the Republican party ran
in adhering to it. The former. called
the attention of the caucus to the fact that
not more than a third of the population OF
the country could possibly be regarded as
directly interested in the protective tariff,
while the other two-thirds were ignored, and
this is what the arrogant monopolists who
were going to reimpose the duty upon qui-
nine and double that upon iron cotton ties
have come 10! Deserted in the house OF

How a Negro saved "a Train.


The story is little late being told, but it
is none the less interesting. The passengers
on the Louisville train that came up to Lex
ington one night week ago or ten days ago
will perhaps recollect that the train was
stopped at the crossing of the railroad and
the Ironworks turnpike. just little way out
of town. The cause was signal from a
colored man named Oscar Washington, who
stood on the track waving light He had
aiso built bonfire on the track so that the
engineer would be boLnd to see that some
thing was wrong. A huge walnut log had
fallen from freight train and lay across
the track. The log was about four feet in
diameter. The colored man, living near,
observed the log on his return from work.
II E could not move it, so he built a fire on
the log, and then went on ahead at safe
distance to give the signal. The company
fered him pass over the road for himself
and family, but he declined it, having little
or no use for the pass. He does not seem to
know what value to put on his great SER
vices.

Special Correspondence OF the Appeal
WEST POINT, April 19.-Yesterday the
cold snap, which for several days recently
has occasioned considerable anxiety about
the safety of growing veget alton, eliminated
in a cold. drilling rain, which increased
now and then to a heavy shower, and con-
tinued until late in the night. This morn
ing, however, the genial sun OF spring shines
from cloudless sky and dissipates every
fear of Jack Frost, who has been lurking re-
Gently around our little city, awaiting an
suspicious opportunity to trace in willing
characters his autograph on the green pages
of the register which dame nature keeps in
springtime. Gardeners and fruit-growers are
reveling in the hope of bounteous yield.
Farmers, too, are cheerful and hopeful. I'm
usually good stands of corn and cotton are
reported, and the oat crop promises to be fine.
All quiet along the social. political and
commercial Potomac in West Point.
Two of our best citizens, Messre. Brinuer
and Herndon, left for ST. Louis last week to
establish the st. Louis department of the
Southern Mutual Aid Association. They
are gentlemen of superior business qualifi-
cations and ability, scrupulously honorable
and possess the unbounded confidence of the
people of this community, which was evil
denced by their making, prior to their de-
parture, a bond of $4,000, composed of the
best citizens of West Point, for the protec-
ton of those who may become members of
the ST. Louis department of the Southern
Mutual Aid Association. The Southern Mu-
tual Aid Association has attained an eminent
point of success here. 1t is the divinity that
maHy young man is locking to as a shaper of
his matrimonial hopes; that many little tow
heads will rise up in the near future to call
blessed that at no distant will, without
doubt, increase the sale of mothers soothing
syrup. E.E.M.

Fitz John POrter's i.awy ers state Their

John Porter state that they never took the
position that the President had the power to
annul or set aside the finding of the court
martial and the approval of the sentence
dismissing him from the army. They con-
cur in this respect with the opinion of the
attorney general. But their view was that the
President, under the pardoning power, can
remit the sentence, which, by excluding him
from all offices under government, is now
being daily executed, and that Congress can
by law restore him to the army and they
have supposed the President would exercise
the pardoniug power and would recommend
to Congress to pass a law which would carry
out the recommendations of the Board of
Inquiry, composed of Generals Schofeld,
Terry and Getty.

Truckee, 15.-J. Is. Campbell, re-
publican nominee for sheriff of Sill.
yer County, was shot and instantly
killed by man named STUDIOS at
Randolph, in Sierra Valley, this
afternoon. The murder was sur
missed to be on account Of q bitter
political contest in that county.
Over 200 men are securing the
country in search Of the murderer.
The particulars of the murder at
Randolph, are,that on account Of an
excited political canvas, friend of
Campbell, named Cody had an al
tercaIiOn with Stubs, day or two
ago. To-day Campbell sought
Stubs to effect are Cancellation.
He apparently failed in the effort
and turned to walk away when
Stubs ran up behind and fired,
without notice, the ball taking eff
feet in the stomach. During the ex-
element that followed Stubs es-
capped. If recaptured lynching is
almost certain. Stubs is man
aged %, and has heretofore enjoyed
the respect Of the community.
