Breaking a Lance for the Lily
U-raI frllrtnn pnsf

Mr.. Gebhard is out in a manly letter, in
which he properly rebukes the mean spirit
displayed by portion Of the press in COM
menting on his attention 70 Mrs. Langtry.
He saws that his attentions 10 this lady
have been such as any gentleman might
properly show 10 any lady similarly sit
uated. 1t is not ereditable to the press or
people of the United States that Mrs. Lang
try has been followed by key-hOle spies.
The press, even in its meanest repre-
sentatives. would not resort to such base
ness if there was not a demand for scam
dial. The lady has been treated with
coarse brutality, which she had no reason
to expect in a country that is bOastful of
its chivalrOus spirit. Newspapers that
claim the highest standing have given
currency TO slanderOus innuendoes
against her good name, and some of them
have INDUCED in editorial comment not
warranted by facts.and not suggested by
any Just sense Of public obligations.

The sympathy Fund Overdrawn,

DutItFfUT7r ANlINs
There is a sort of pOetical justice in his
act. While the State was fleeing her
public creditors, Polk went to work and
fieeced not only the creditors, but the
State herself. 1t is the lec tdiloRis applied
to her by one of her own people, and if she
suffers thereby and is forced to put on new
taxes TO make up the deficit or TO meet
current and pressing local expenditures,
there is no one who respects the Obliga-
tons of contracts who will sympathize
with her

The Hope of the New South.
ILL 4 ...--....--..

The South is new field. We have found
that we can manufacture as well as our
neighbOrs. We have found that in our
cotton. if we only manufacture it our
selves, there is immense wealth; that we
not only have the cotton, but we have
other immense resources. We have iron
and coal, we have valuable timber, we
have great advantages in water power;
indeed, we have found that immense re-
sources and that the road TO wealth is into
the workshop. the factory, the foundry,
the iron and coal beds. This is new dis
covery, and il is making for us a new
South. To-day the new South has more
promise-a better OutlOOk-than any other
portion of the United States. What we
need is live men in business affairs and
wise men in making laws.

The developments thus far made con.

600 bushels OF grain out Of New York
during 1882 not one sailed under the stars
and stripes. OF these 1899 vessels !, 069
were steamers and only 240 sailing craft,
a fact which shows that steam is rapidly
supplanting wind as a motive power on
the ocean. It shows further, too. that
the stars and stripes are not so ubiquitous
as they once were.

Party Methods

"A State in which Green B. Raum is
preferred TO David Davis shows marked
tendency 10 revert to a lower form of poll
teal existence" This very just remark
the Philadelphia Record appends to
brief comment upon the chances of Mr..
Davis reelection, in which it says that
his is an example of the conspicuous
failure of an attempt to hold the balance
between parties in this country. That he
sought to arbitrate between the two
parties, voting with judicial inl-
partiality on every issue in the
Senate, Oftener for the Democrats
than for the Republicans; for which
the latter have dropped him for Raum,
and the former will ''nOne of him." that
for his judicial impartiality'' he has
lost credit with all parties in Illinois"
and it sis not improbable that he will
be succeeded by Commissioner Raum,"
whose merits consist in that he officially
gave his Jealous aid to the "whisky in
terests" of Illinois, while he at the same
time made himself ''solid'' with the Pro-
hibitiOnists by opposing any reduction of
the tax on spirits.
Fortunately the Record is not infallible
on Illinois politics, and it is barely possi-
bic that Mr.. David Davis judicial impair
TALLY has not rendered him so OdiOus at
home as TO cause his reputation by both
parties, and the transfer Of his seat in the
senate TO Raum and whisky. But it is a
sad comment upon the morality of ''par-
" methods" where acknowledged merit
may be fiippantly tossed aside, and design
ing, corrupt expediency tremendously
installed in its high office.

The Tariff and the Rice Interests.
As is generally known, the Tariff Com
mission submitted its report TO Congress
at the beginning of the present session
The general tenor of its recommendations
has been brought to the attention OF our
readers. but it may be well TO recall that
the House Committee of Ways and Means
has been engaged in revising the report,
making numerous changes more or less
marked. The revision will be embodied
in a bill TO be presented to the House, and
to be passed or rejected by that body.
The Senate Finance Committee, too, has
prepared a complete tariff bill, tackled on
to the bill still pending in the Senate,
known as the Little Internal Revenue Re
duction bill" passed by the House at the
last session. Neither body has taken de-
Lucrative action as vet at this session III

As rice is an item in the schedules OF
duties proposed to be imposed, the follow
ing table will be found interesting TO pro-
ducers of that staple. 1t shows the pres
ent duty per pound on rice, the rate pro-
posed bv the Tariff Commission, the rate
urged by the House Committee of Ways
and Means and that fixed by the Senate
Finance Committee as follows:

Mr.. Justice Field, Of the Supreme Court
of the United States, was once a good
enough Republican to be picked out by
President Lincoln for the seat which he
now holds. He is rather a fair sort of a
Democrat at present, and has done the
people good service by his decisions in the
construction Of recent Federal statutes.
He was at one time undergoing GROOM
ing for the Presidential race. His
points are about the same now as then;
but his boomers might recall that this
acute jurist, when he decided, as he did
in the case of the county of San Mateo.
California. versus the Southern Pacific
Railway, that corporations are persons
within the intendment Of the fourteenth
amendment to the Federal Constitution,

prefer President who could juggle less
skillfully with the alleged charter of our
liberties.

the most potent repellant Of malarial

From the above it appears that the Com
mission urge reduction of One-quarter
cent per pound in each grade; that the
House committee would increase existing
rates to a like extent, and that the Senate
committee propose a rate substantially
the same as that recommended by the
commission. The rate proposed for rice
-four, powdered or ground clean rice, is a
new one, as there is no duty on rice flour
at present.
Which. if either. bill will be passed re-
mains to be seen. The general impression
Is that neither bill will be finally acted
upon, and that the question viii go over
to the next Congress. If the rice interests
are hurt by delay of the proposed legisla-
ton, they will have abundant sympathy
from other interests, which will have like
ground for complaint.
