TIE railroad,strike is far from being
settled. In most places it is orderly. the
strikers using argument and covert in
timidatiOn that has proven efIectual.
But in Fort Worth it is being carried
to the extremes of boycotting every
body that in any way will have any
thing to do with the men at work. and
the thing has gone so far rs to poison
the water used in n boarding house
where "scabs" are living, and seriously
If not fatally poisoning a woman and
child. This will meet with the unquali-
fed condemnation of all law-abiding
and respectable people, among whom
will be found many Of the strikers them
selves. The knights have not got any
too much popularity to throw away in
this movement, and they had better not
be reckless with the same. So long as
they keep within the pale of the law
they will retain the sympatbies of many
persons who are not actually with them,
but who win not tamely tolerate wan
ton lawlessness and cowardly assassina-
ton.

Ia the letter rendering his resigEa-
ton TO the president, SecreH.ry
Meaning seizes the opportunity
ia strike blow at projection and
TIE silver dollar. "'Our present tariff
laws" he says, "Sve a needless oppres-
sion instead of an ensy harden" Gan
our needful customs revenue might be
collected by strictly revenue duties upon
few articles, instead OF by extrayagant
or prohlbitory duties en- more than 1000
articles. The mere machinery Of the al
minlstration by its own mass and com
pleEity breaks down and brushes out the
enterprise 1t assumes TO protect"
SIR, Manning, though occupying the
exalted position of secretary of the
treasury, seems to have false concep-
ton Of the purpose Of our tariff system.
The tariff Is not, he ought 60 remember,
. means OF providing revenue for
the government, but machine for en-
riching its beneEciarles, who are the
conductors of favored industries. II the
tariff on the 1000 articles now protected
against competition were removed, ss he
suggests, the profits Of the manufacturers
might BIO cut down. The raising OF a
revenue might be accomplished as well
by a ter. on few articles that would pay
revenue TO the government as by = tax
on thousands Of articles that pay no reve-
nue. tJ2nybody but the manufacturers. But
the removal OF that tax cannot be thought
Of We must protect our home indus
tries, and that being the prime ouject of
our tariff system, no article can be put
upon the free list without Interfering
with tle profits Of tho manufacturers OF
tbat article. Hence the reasoning of
Mr.. Manning is absurd. As long as the
people of this country are willing to pay
tribute to Pennsylvania and New En-
gland, who cares?
