Che latter. In other words, the count don't

A Torig for Protection.

The competition between manufacture
ers in this country is as good guarantee
for reasonable prices as the compe-
tition between foreign manufacturers
and importers. The workingmen who
manufacture at living wages the articles
consumed by the farmers are the profit
able customers of those same farmers.
Capital and labor invested in American
manufactures average four per cent on
the capital and dollar and a
quarter a day for the labor. The
Democrats show their love for the
working Glasses by insisting that duties
shall he SO reduced, in order to make inn
ports yield revenue, that goods made
at foreign labor prices shall flood
the American market. The issue is
d good one. Protection is good
American doctrine. The Bourbons
who fight it are going around in
the same circle in which their prede-
cessors, the cotton lords, did when they
swore that there should be free trade
between England and South Carolina to
punish the Yankees. Now the South
will sooner divide ON the tariff question
than on any other. Her cotton is nc
longer her chief industry. The factories
and furnaces in this country will never
be closed for revenue" until the Role
blind Democracy shall possess it in fvery
branch. This win never happen.

The following appeared in the Critic of
Yesterday:
In his reference to the star-route trials Dr. Rich
ardson used the following language which does
not appear in the reports telegraphed Off:
"In passing from this branch of our subject we
have to say but this: Honest men who hold public
Offices when assailed for lack of integrity should
be able and willing to explain their actions. By
the law of the land defendants are in such cases
permitted TO testify In their own behalf and if the
persons indicted In the star-routc cases fail to
avail themselves of privilege granted by law FOR
their protection, the public will conclude that
they are guilty.
[IfDr. Richardson had taken the trouble to ex
anime the report of the trial which he was dis
cussing, he would have asceriained that his view
of the matter is contrary to both the letter and the
spirit of the law to which he refers as expressly
expounded by Judge Wylie--Ed. Citicl
The law is that the failure of de-
fendant to testify shall not be taken into
account to his detriment by the jury. His
silence shall raise no legal presumption
unfavorable TO him. But it is quite
another question as to how the failure OF
an accused person to swear to his own
innocence shall operate upon the mind
of the general public. At the bar of pub
lie opinion no one sits to pronounce sem
tence, it is true, but neither does any
one sit there to apply any technical rules
of evidence. No man can afford to stand
accused under oath of any crime, the
commission Of which he does not, under

will blow from the southeast the planetary force
will be sufficient to submerge the low lands
of the American coast, especially those bordering
on the Gulf of Mexico and washed by the gulf
miles along the east side Of the Rocky Mountain
range, owing to the great atmospheric pressure in
those regions, will spread universal destruction.
7 New England States will also suffer severely
