TALE OFTEN TOLD.


AT the annual dinner of the Golden
Club in London q day or two since the
Hon. JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN, a member
Of the late British Cabinet, spoke only
tks words Of soberness and truth when
he declared that America was crippled
in both the iron and wool trade by
reason of protective impositions. Our
wool has gone down and the business
become seriously affected, although the
government has made ample provisions
for its protection. In the iron trade the
depression is equally noticeable, for
many thousands of operatives have been
idle for weeks past and great mills have
been closed, as they are annually, for
many months of tho year.
1t is an cft-heard story here that low
wages and free trade in Europe are
running American laborers and manu-
facturers. On the other hand Mr..
CHAMBERLAIN contends and with
reason, supplemented and sustained by
facts, that English trade and msnnfac-
turers are beating America in all the
markets of the world, particularly
near our own shores, and
doing it, too, without any
bonus or assistance from the homo gov
eminent. And the fact that high-psid
American lsborers are in a strike, as
against cheap paid English labor, con.
tent and at work, undor q free trade
regime, Is another nut for the New
World protectionists to crack. The sim.
pie and indisputable fact is that in pro-
lection America, whore the government
proposes to look after workingmen and
protect manufactures, some 100000 men
are on a strike and general cry exist
ing of hard times and no foreign trade,
AS against this, England with free
trade has prosperous and contented
working class and is supplying, as Of
old, the best markets OF the world in
"goods, wares and merchandise"
If England, with free trade, can take
our trade from us, even In the New
World, keep her laborers az constant
employment and control the carrying
trade of the world, there i,
something radically wrcng in the
legislation Of country, second
to none in natural advantages on the
face Of the earth These are truths fire.
quently urged upon the legislation o.
this country by the best minds of thu
land, but 1t seems to have been seed
that has fellen among tares and taker
no root,
These words Of this practical English
man are worthy of especial attention
coming as they do from one who has
carefully studied and is thoroughly
familiar with the problem, where h,
says: eve are unable TO congratulate
ourselves on any great recent CONVEX
sion Of free trade principles, but that il
to be- regretted more for projections
countries than for our own" Thon ht
continued by reading extracts from GU
recent secretary of the treasury's re
port on American over-production and
concluded by saying that there was NJ
reason on earth why America Should
not compete with England, texcopt TO
the high tariff" 1t il an old story this
but an "o'er true tale;" one not ye
learned generally in the United States
but when properly understood will leaC
on to fortune and absolute independ
ence.

A VERY pleasant feature in current
events is circular received by THE
HERALD entitled "Attontion Teachers"
the object of which is TO notify the
colored teachers OF TeEas to
assemble in convention at Aus
tin on the first three days of July.
"The object of this convention is to
consider the ACCESSIBILITY of forming a
State teachers association for the unity.
ing of the profession and for the inter
change Of advanced IDEAS" None but
true Southerners and friends of the
colored race know how much genuine
pleasure efforts In this direction afford.
1t is even an agree able idea to know
that the lately enfranchised race share
with their white fellow citizens the ad-
vantages OF Texas which the great
founders of her independence secured
in the way OF almost boundless educa-
tlonal privileges. 1t will be seen that
Mr. SMoTHERs, of Dallas, has been
assigned prominent part In the pro-
ceedings OF the convention.

alton. His proposition to employ men

better to pay the money thus expended

zens Of Dallas will contribute literally
to the construction and stock OF this
road II they are asked 10 do so now. De.
lays are dangerous, and the managers
should take the earliest possible mo.
mont to secure the necessary contribu-
tions TO render It's construction beyond
