lhe taxpayer cry, amen,

No more important decision has
been rendered for many years past
than that of Judge Baxter declaring
the act of the Tennessee legislature
creating a railroad commission to be
void, because violative of the con-
stitutiOn Of the United States. Be
yond the immediate effect produced
upon the interests Of the people of
the state of Tennessee by this de-
cision, there looms up the great
question of the future: Shall the
general government interfere be-
tween the railroads and the people.
If it does not the corporations will
have the shipper at their mercy. If
it does, another step is taken towards
centralizing in the hands of congress
the power to regulate and decide
the local concerns of the several
states. The far seeing mind may
well regard such step with the
gravest apprehension.

By reference to our Geographic
columns it will be seen that Prince
Leopold Duke of Albany, the young
est son of Queen Victoria, died sud
denly on yesterday. Leopold was
a handsome, gay young man of the
world, and it is not improbable that
the fast living consequent upon a
fat purse had something to do with
his untimely end. He was married
only about one year ago.

THE TARIFF REFORM.

~ The probable position of our
party and state on the Morrison
bill is stated most clearly and forci-
bly, in an opeu letter from Hon. P.
P. Bishop, of our county, to Colonel
Greenleaf, NJ. c., from Rochester,
N. Y.
If it were possible to levy a tariff
tax impartialIy just, then it would
be perfectly non-protective and in
operative, for eacn interest would
contribute exactly what it received.
But while the democrats emphati-
calIy declare the present tariff on
the basis made necessary by an eX-
pensive war, extortionate and ruin
Gus, the party in Florida must insist
that in scaling down the list, COM
mon justice should be done to our
own industries. If we must pay
tariff on iron, woolens and other ar
ticles we buy from our sister states,
then we should be allowed the Incl
dental protection of a low tariff on
the imported fruits which compete
with ours.
Here is the whole matter in a nut
shell, and Mr.. Bishops arguments
leave no room for doubt as to the
position of the party on this issue.
Florida and her productions are able
to stand on their merits in the mar
kets of the world; and we only ask
that the protection we are made to
pay for to others may not be turned
against ourselves. No doubt our
representative in congress can be
made tc see this, and will see that
Justice is done us, but their is true
patriotism in bringing the matter to
their attention in ample season to
influence their treatment of the
amendments now before the con
gressional caucus.
On this bill depends an important
issue between the two parties, and
care should be taken that no wordv
fog is allowed to obscure the popu-
lar view of the real position. In a
time of profound peace, the repub-
licans insist on taxing articles in
common use for the benefit Cf a
treasury already overlooking, on the
basis of needs forced upon the
country by an expensive war. The
democrats wish no large surplus in
the treasury; they wish to lower
the rate of taxation to the level of
our actual necessities, and they in
sist that objects in daily use by the
poor, should have the benefits of
this reduction instead of the luxu-
RES required by the habits of the
wealthy.
As Mr. Bishop shows, most of the
industries which have enjoyed the
benefits of protection are now full
grown and strong. If we must pay
for protection, then our pineapple
and banana culture, really an Sin.
FAINT industry" should be recognized
as well as the planters of Louisiana
or the iron mongers of Pennsylva
MIA, Mr. Bishops communication
should have the careful considera
ton of our public men, and we com
mend it to the study of every voter

MORE IMPROVEMENTS.
Erecting a Cotton Warehouse on the
site OF the Old Bradley Mill.

Erecting a Cotton Warehouse on the
Site OF the Old Bradley Mill.
About a month ago arrangements were
made for the erection Of a tire-prOof cotton
warehouse on the eastern wharyes,
short distance east OF what was formerly
known as the Lamar canal. The site Il
wears ago was occupied by the old Bradley
saw mill, and on the adjacent lots were
piles Of timber and lumber awaiting ship
ment. To the rear Of the mill was tim
Der BASIN into which raft logs were
fllatej from the Savannah river via the
Lamar canal. This basin was filed
up few years ago, while
every yestige Of the lumber
ward and mill has been completely Oblit-
Grated. and a number of cOmmodiOus
wharves have been constructed, with
lines of railway track leading 10
them from the main line Of the Sa-
vannah, Florida and Western Railway.
The foundation OF the new warehouse is
ouilt on the site OF the old mill. Here
siXty-fOur piles, each about forty feet in
length. were first driven, in sixteen clUs-
tiers OF four piles To a cluster, to depth of
over thirty feet, TO afford a good base for a
superstructure consisting OF sixteen
separate brick walls or columns Is feet in
height, which have been built on three
lines, each line forming one side of a tri-
angulaT-shaped building, one side measur-
ing 100 feet. and the other two sides each
so feet. The idea of constructing the
building triangular-shaped was TO ecOno-
miZe the space allotted for the warehouse,
and At the same time TO give a right OF
way 10 two railway tracks, which lead
past the building on the east and west
sides.
This warehouse is being constructed
for Capt. W. W. Gordon under
the supervision of Augustus
Schwaab, the architect. The floor of the
building will be 81 feet above the surface
II the ground, and Will be higher than the
level of the highest tide that has ever Wis
tied that locality. The ceiling will be u
feet in height, while the ridge Of the ROOF
will be nearly Is feet from the floor. The
spaces between the Is brick columns Will
be walled in with corrugated iron. The
roof Of the building will also be of CORFU
gated iron and viii extend from wall To
wall.sO that it will be impossible for hTe TO
communicate with the interior when the
house is closed. Five large doors, one on
the north and two on the east and west
sides, respectively, viii open out upon
spacious platform that is TO be construct
cd on the three sides of the warehouse,
and on a level with the platform Of an
ordinary freight car. so that cotton may
De quickly and conveniently handled 10
or from the building. Ii Is thought that
this warehouse will he FINISHED about Nov.
