TRAINS From RENO 10 CARSON AND
VIDaINIA:
The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1884-01-17
An Interesting Question.

Il was stated yesterday in our telegrapbic
columns that in the House OF Represents
tiyes on Tuesday Mr.. MILLS, of Texas, had
offered a resolution, which was adopted,
directing the Committee on Judiciary to
report whether the President, by and with
the advice and consent OF the Senate, can
negotiate treaties with foreign governments
by which the duties levied by Congress
can be changed or abrogated.
Thereby hangs tale" Mr.. MILLS is
one OF the anti-Protectionist Democrats In
Congress. He il c'assed with Mr.. Nor
RisoN and Mr.. HURD. Yet he takes the
alarm when Texas industry Is threatened
with too much foreign competition. Let
us explain.
The President OF the United States has
concluded treaty with Mexico which is
now before the Senate for ratification.
Tha, treaty "opens dangerous COMPETE
ton - with the sugar-makers OF Louisiana,
where there are not three or four hundred,
"a we stated by mistake yesterday, but
three or four hundred thousand persons
more or less interested in sugar-planting.
In word, Mexican sugar, produced by
forced labor, or by coolies working for q
mere subsistence, is to be allowed to COM
pete In the markets OF this country with
our own sugar, and so destroy the sugar
interests, now the most important interest
in Louisiana. and prevent Texas and Flort
da from becoming sugar-producing States
Mr.. MILLS objects to this, OF course. w
trust, however, that his eyes will be opened
to the fac; that other States than Texas hav'
interests which they would like to hav'
protected against a destructive foreign
competition.
But as TO MIR. bIILLs's question: TIL
Constitution makes treaties made by tn
Executive and ratified by the Senate 18th
supreme law Of the land" Does that Ian
guage mean. asks Mr.. MILLS, that tart
law which has been passed by both house
OF Congress and approved by the Pres
dent shall be accounted OF inferior dignit
10 a mere trea.ys Can the President On
the Senate conspire together TO deiraud tn
House OF Representatives OF its constity
tional right to participate In the making {
all national lawsi II they can thus ovei
ride one provision Of law, they can owe
ride all. That Is 10 say, IL the Presider
and the senate can thus admit sugar FRI
OF duty, they can Of course admit free (
duty all the articles named in the tari
laws.
We do not believe that the trainers OF III
Constitution had any idea Of conferrin
such powers upon tho President and Ii
senate. Ours was very insignifical
country in 1851. and the fathers frame
that article without due deliheration an
criticism. twill have TO be 20 construe

TT ESCAPES FROM ITS CAGE AND CAUSES A
PANIC IN SMALL AUDIENCE.
A Chicago telegram OF the 18th instant
saws: Charles McCurran, the animal
tr1iner, entered cage OF lions at the
winter quarters Of the Nickel-Plate Circus
and Menagerie this morning with no
weapon of defence save a small iron rod,
which he carried in his hand. The trainer
unbarred the iron door OF the cage and
Jumped within. Al the time Of his en-
trance Prince. the largest African lion in
captivity, sprang from the cage through
the open door and landed in a crowd OF
invited guests, who were in attendance to
witness the initiatory performance OF sub
jecting the wild beasts to human control.
Among the small audience were Mons.
Joseph, modern Hercules; Mrs. Harris,
wife OF the proprietor OF the show; ana
DR.. Kelly. The doors of the winter quar-
tiers were barred securely so as to prevent
outsiders from witnessing the anticipated
performance. The wild beast cleared
Mrs. Harris and landed his fore-paws in
the lap of DR.. Kelly. The terrified spec
tators made a desperate attempt to escape
from the building. While the men were
scrambling through windows in their

yeyed the scene. With the agility OF a
trapeze performer she sprang upon the
cage of a byena and drew herself up
through an aperture into the loft.
Mons. Joseph was the only one who
found all avenues OF escape cut off. SEEING
heavy iron bar he whired it through the
air in the direction Of the crouching brute.
The missile missed its mark and went
crashing through partition separating the
tame from the wild animals. The lion
seemed to ignore human prey, for it turn
ed its attention to a beautiful Shetland
trick-pOny. With terrific yell, the brute
sprang at its throat.
| Joseph and the trainer rushed at the in
| furiated animal with iron bars and pitch
forks, but were unable to beat him of. A
great crowd had mean while arrived In the
lneighborhood. and on advice OF DIR. Kelly
1t was decided to chOroform the lion. A
hole was broken in the floor above the ami
mails. and two large sponges, soaked will
the drug, were fastened to pole and stuci
under the monsters nose. The pony wa
now lying liieless. In few moments tn
lion succumbed. In five minutes he wa
bound with ropes and placed in his cage.

The Richmond Dispatch SAYS that to coll
lect more internal revenue in the impoyer-
ished State Of Virginia than in all the New
England States together is - an ineXcusablc
wrong" We should like to know where
the wrong" comes in. Every dollar OF
internal revenue taxation that is collected
from the producers and manufacturers OF
tobacco in Virginia is paid, to the last cent,
by the consumers OF the tobacco Charles
ton NerS and Courier.
We explained fully why the tax was
wrong, in the very article which the NetrS
quotes from; and yet that journal speaks
as if we did not know that the consumers
of tobacco pay the tax upon it. Suppose
the United States Government were to tax
rice or cotton ten cents per pound because
the consumer pays the tax: would that not
be "wrong Or thus tax wheat, or
corn, or sugar! Surely it would. New
England consumers pay for what they use
of our tobacco, but they use less OF it
because it is so high. The tax on tobacco
tends to the establishment OF meuopolles
by preventing enterprising men of limited
capital from engaging in the manufacture
OF tobacco. 1t diminishes consumption
and discourages production, and thus
wrongs the tobacco-planter. II Is source
of annoyance, aud veXation, and trouble.
OF course the Ne,nS and Courieris a - Ia
rin-reformer." 1t inveighs against high
tariff because the consumer has to pay that
taxi 1t holds it to be great wrong" to
put tariff Of fifty cents per pound on to-
bacco in order to protect the Virginia man
uiacturers from Canadian or other foreign
competition. Wbyy Because the consul
mer has to pay higher price for the tobac-
co than he would have to pay but for the
tariff! Now this tariff is rendered necessa-
ry-nay, Independently the internal tax
upon tobacco. The NerS and Courier would
of course favor the repeal OF that pro-
tective tariff OH tobacco. What would be
the consequence? Every tobacco-factory
in Virginia would be closed in less than .
year. Virginia .begs to be excused from
sharing in the I" benefits" OF that repeal.
Oh, no. 1t is no proof that tax upor
agricultural products is justifiable one
nor that il is not "wrong "-to asser
that it is paid by the consumer.
