HOLLY SPRINGS REPORTER: The elec-
tion of Col. Manning by over two thousand
majority is beyond question. 1t is believed
now that Gen. Chalmers cannot carry
Pamela county, and that was a county the
Democrats had conceded to him. There
has been decided change in public senti-
ment unfavorabIe to Gen. Chalmers within
the past two weeks, and we would not now
be surprised if Col Manning's majority
reached three thousand.

We Are Prosperous Under the Tariff

Commenting on John Roach's state
ment that "we are all prosperous under
the present tariff" the New York Her
aid says:
"Who are we p The American ship-own-
er is certainly not prosperous, for in the
foreign carrying trade the name of an
American firm is almost unknown. The
American mechanic is assurredly not pros
porous, for it is only few months since Mr..
Roach's own workingmen were on a strike
for higher wages, begging to be protected,
not against the 'pauper labor but against
Mr.. Roach, the protection philanthropst.
The Roach protective policy has resulted in
this-we have no ships; we have halfstarved
mechanics and "a fat, well-fed and highly
protected John Roach"

THE protectionists claim that protec-
tive duties stimulate the home manu-
facture of the protected article, and
that the competition between those who
are thereby encouraged to engage in its
manufacture cheapens the article far
more than fir-i IN competition would do.
Now if this be true, as the protectionists
assert, would it not be our policy to
levy high duties upon the raw material,
thereby inducing competition in It's
production that would cheaper it to
those who work it into higher forms ?
Does this not follow from the original
proposition If protective duties
cheaper the manufactured article,
would not protective duties cheaper
the raw material? Yet, strange as it
may appear, these same protectionists,
to quote a distinguished authority,
"demand that the higher fabrics shall
be protected by still larger duties to
the increased cost aohieh the first
duty adds to the ralg material they aLse.'

THE ISSUE UNCERTAIN.

Predicting Gowen's Defeat OH Third Street
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 12.--Mr. Gowou
reached the end of his proxy list at noon
with a total Of 1856, Cos shares. This is ex-
elusive of the Vanderbilt holding, which
will not be voted until the Bond proxies
arc in. The Getting then adjourned until
2p. m. The feeling on Third street is
that with this vote, and including even
the Vanderbilt holding, Gowen cannot bc
elected.
1t is now the genaral impression on Third
street that the Vanderbilt vote in the
Reading election will not be cast On the
losing side. If Gowen can secure an :in-
disputable majority, including the Van
derbilt proxies, then they will be voted
for Gowen. The Gowcn vote so far pollcd
is still considerably short Of the required
figure.
