any valid objection to the Morrison bill.
Even if that bill, by the horizontal reduc-
ton of 20 per cent. in the tariff duties it
proposes, should materially reduce the re-
venues from that source which is impro-
bable, still there would be room to reduce
the internal revenve to considerable
extent.
An amendment making such re-
duction in the internal revenue and sim
plifying and cheapening the expenses of
collection could be incorporated into the
Morrison bill, and then, if Mr.. Randall in
tends any longer to claim utilization with
the Democratic party, he will give the
measure his support. 1t is now said that
he will compromise upon such conces-
sion, and it is to be hoped he may, for he
is an able and brilliant man but the Dem
ocratic party had far better lose Mr.. Ran
dali and his small following than to &C
de to his undemocratic tariff views.

The cost Of collecting the internal reve-
nue. last year was over five millions of
dollars This is large sum to be expend-
ed IN the support of an army of over five
thousand collec ors, gaugers. storekeepers
and other petty Federal officials, and the
system deserves TO be simplifed. il not al.
together abolished. But one thi >g at Il
time is enough. Let the interests Of the
country at large be looked after first, by
cutting down the burden of the war taxes,
which the tariff imposes upon it. The
whiskey tax can safely stand until the tax
on the necessaries of life is taken off.

Our Export Wheat Trade.

That we are losing our export trade in
grain cannot now he doubted. That the
decrease is slow is Il m, ter of no import
ance so long as it is known to be certain,
and it is as we'll to consider the situation
when this trade shall be, if not at an end
most seriously diminished. India, which
is to be our principal and successful com
petitor, would long ago have been such
had railway communication existed. This
last want is being rapidly supplied, Brit
ish money being constantly invested in In
dian railways, the Indian government
guaranteeing dividends. 1t is only a
matter of time when wheat growing India
will be closely connected with Europe.
But, it is said, East Indian wheat is not
81 quality to compete with our product.
This is altogether illacy. While Eng
lish wheat is the softest in the world,
East Indian is the hardest and dryest, so
that they mix much better than the Eng
lish and American. Side by side, then
the competition between East Indian and
American wheat is to our detrimenr with
out regard to the price--but look at that.
In spite of the recent dec ine of full twcn-
ty-five cents a bushel, whe It is still five
cents bushel higher here than in Lon
don. 1t is a grave question how much of
our foreign wheat trade we can retain,
but there is no doubt that to hold any of
it the price of wheat must he permanent
ly lower. This is as true as demonstra-
ton can make any fact which has not ac
tually happened.
What is the remedy, then for our farm
ers2 They must offset the fall in price
by raising grain cheaper They must raise
grain cheaper by reducing their expenses,
and they must reduce their expenses by
overturning the present protective tariff,
which compels them to buy in the dearest
market, while selling in the cheapest in
competition with the world The hope
for the American farmer in the future is in
his unrestrained liberty to buy where lie
pleases and sci where he can-in shorr.
to make his dollar 90 as far as the dollar
of any other man in the world.--Pot

the poorer classes use whiskey and tobac-

and makes the point of the great cost OF
the collection of the excise taxes
These arguments are fallacious If The
war debt wa. entirely out of the way and
none of the burdens resulting from the
war remained, then it might be said that
we should derive all the revenue from i'm
post taxes as in the ante bellum times
but even then the policy of free rum and
free tobacco while all necessaries are tax
ed might be hard to accept. So long,
however, as the war debt remains. the in
ternal taxes upon luxuries should certain
~ contribute to the burden. As far as the
contention about the laboring classes US.
ing rum and tobacco is concerned, this
has no weight, unless it could be shown
that such use is necessary and beneficial
to that class; and with regard to the ex-
pense of collecting internal taxes, the same
argument might be used against custom
house taxation, as many of the custom
houses-the one at Baltimore for ins. ance
do not pay their expenses.
1t is clear then, that upon the all impor-
tant tariff question there is no distinction
or at least no difference, between Randall
ism and Republicanism, and that the
Democracy of the country, to remain true
to its traditions and its principles, must
keep as clear Of one as of the other

stems of tariff reform sentiments, can have

The Ohio Outrage.

When Senator Sherman shall have
concluded his arduous labors and made
report of the facts connected with the
shooting OF four colored men at Dan
vile, Virginia, he ought to take time
to think of the brutal butcherv of a
whole family Of colored people at
Avon dale, Ohio, two or three days
ago.
The not at Dauville grew out OF in
tense excitement fomen;ed by Republ-
can Senators aud the Stalwart Admin
istration. 1t was a most lamentable
affair, but it was not a cold-blooded,
deliberate, cruel killing Of men.
The murder OF Beverly Taylor and
his wife and adopted daughter at Avon
dale, Ohio, grew out of two things, the
desire Of a medical college for custom
made cUrpses and the 1amnable avarlce
of son OF Senator Sherman's censtit-
uents.
The dead at Danville fell in a mu
tusl encouniec of angry parlisans. were
swept out Of life on a wave of furious
passion fer which the hackers of Ma
hone here in Washington are chiefly
responsible.
The dead at Avondale were sold as
corpses while yet alive, were knocked
down and dubbed 20 death in their
home with more brutality than is wit
messed in q slaug hier-house. When
the "stffs" had been made IL order,
as 1t were. they were sacked and haul
ed 10 the market where they had been
sold on the previous day. and there the
contract money was paid, sl5 a head!
Will Mr.. Sherman take time to con-
trast tie Danville homicides with those
Of Avondale Will be state which of
the two tragedies indicates the higher
state of civilization?
Tie Constitution provides that the
United States shall guarantee to each
State republican form of government.
What sort of a government exists
where a whole family is liable to be
dubbed 10 death 10 make subjects"
to sell 10 State corporation to be use

Do not these facts furnish good and

should ask that Avonda!e be added to
