government related to his department l
especially direct the attention Oh the congress
to the recommendations contained in this and

In my last annual message to the congress
attention was directed to the fact that the
revenues OF the government exceeded its
actual needs; and II was suggested that legis-
latve action should be taken to relieve the
people from the unnecessary burden OF taxa
tlon thus made apparent In view of the
pressing Importance Of the subject deem it
my duty to again urge its conside alton.
"A TARIFF FOR REVENUE ONLY"
The income OF the government by It's IN
creased volume and through economies in its
collection is now more than ever in excess of
public necessities. The application of the
surplus to the payment of such portion of the
public debt as is now at our option subject TO
extinguishment, if continued at the rate
which has lately prevailed, would retire that
class of Indebtedness within less than one
year from this date. Thus continuation OF
our present revenue system would soon II suit
In tine receipt of an annual income much
greater than necessary to meet government
expenses, with no indebtedness upon which it
could be applied. We should then be con
fronted with a vast quantity Of moIey-the
circulating medium of the people-hoarded
In the treasury when it should be in their
hands, or we should be drawn into wasteful
public extravaganza with all the corrupting
national decentralization which follows in its
train. But it is not the simple existence of
this surplus and its threatened at tendant evils
which furnish the strongest argument against
our present scale of federal taxation Its
worst phase is the exaction of such a surplus
through u perversion of the relations be-
tween the people and their government, and a
dangerous departure from the rules which
limit the right Of federal taxation Good

CUBA IS FREE.

GLORIOUS news from Spain. Cuba

that the long delayed measure of
justice has been accorded to the
blacks of Cuba. The news comes in
the following dispatch:

moved a resolution that the Govern
ment free as soon as possible the re-
naming 26,0OO slaves in Cuba. The
Government agreed to the resolution

President Of the Chamber congratu-
lated the members on the "crowning
of the glorious work of the abolition
Of slavery" which will soon set the
remaining 10000 slaves in the Island
free. Hurrah for Cuhai She now

VINO WANTS WAR?

Who wants war?
Not the honest, hard working citi-

Not the pan of family.
Not any man who loves his home.
Not any man who loves his wife.
Not any man whose mother is the

Not any man who sees his future

Who wants war?
Not any pure, honest, loving wo-
man.
Not any mother, wife, sister or

Oh, no! Womans happiness de-
pcnds on peace.
Who wants war?
Not any man who has ever been
through war and faced all its per-
us and horrors.
No matter how brave be was, lie
has had his Gil. The braver he was,
til" more willing he Is now to enjoy
the beauties of peace.
None of the tried heroes Of the
late civil conflict, who wore the blue
or the gray, care to pass through the
same bitter experience again.
Who wants war.
Men who have lost their reputa-
tions.
Men who are anxious to make rep
utations at the cost Of human life.
Meu who have no homes, aud ne
respect for the peaceful homes O
others.
Men who have no families, or il
they have, do not provide for them
or even treat them with respect.
Adventures aud thieves.
Gamblers and hlacklegs.
Bullics and towards; all thas,
want war.
And Why
Because they we'll know that i
war is declared, the honest citizei

END Of the county, in the past two

the democrats in the upper end are
going to drop II. I. Blythe and vote
for Bradford, for representative. OF
course there is no truth in all this,

confuse the weak-mindsd. The

well a great number Of republicans
who believe change would be

Dear, old.fashioned boy, we were
one of you, but you have disappear
ed. You are a thing of the past,
and will live no more, except in
memory and song. We can see you
now in your summer costumes-blue
cottonade pants buttoned to shirt
of the same material, and in your
little white wool, the crown of when
had grown to a point and resembled
miniature church spire. Yellow
clay mingles with your unkept locks,
showing that you have been swim
ming IN the horse pond and driving
your head into the mud, but withal
you are better looking, stronger,
healthier ind more manly than the
modern boy whose mother keeps him
in fine clothes aud white linen, and
who. knows not the JOY Of going bare
footed and wearing stone bruise on
his heel. His smooth and pale
cheeks and delicate stocking covered
legs may compare oddly and more
favorably to yonr brown, plump and
bare calves and freckled, tanned and
war,y face, and his manners may be
easier and more refined than yours,
but we will bet on you on the gen
eral outcome every time. You are
the old.iashioned boys that made
good men, as evolved into the Web
sters, C.ays and Calhouns of this
country, but alas! you have mizzled.
Your respectful demeanor, awkward
politeness, Ehsl devotion, modesty.
and blant truthfulness have gone.
The bicycle-r,ding, whistling, noisy,
impudent, and precocious modern
boy, with modern ideas and habits,
has crowded You out Of existence and
taken the place you once so nobly
adorned. The cows come home at
milking time, but you with your raw
hide whip and "bed- ticking" suspen-
ders are not there. You are no
where. You sre only . sweet mem.
