CONGRESSMAN IlEurmIL Of South Car
DINA made one OF the best speeches That
has yet been spoken against the further
coinage OF an oighty-cent dollar. lie
showed how it cheated the cotton-grow-
ers OF the South by giving them eighty
cents for dollars worth OF cotton The
price OF cotton in this country is fixed by
the demand for It IN England, where
most Of our cotton is shipped. All prices
there are made ON gold basis, If the
farmers cotton is priced on gold basis
aud paid for In SILVER dollars worth only
eighty cents, he is cheated out Of 20 per
cent. OF the value of his labor, That is
too plain to be misunderstood or ex-
planned away, If the silver dollar was
worth its nominal value the farmers would
he the gamers by IT. and yet there are a
majority, perhaps, who clamor for a
ocheap" dollar, by which they may be
robbed OF NTH part Of their labor

Correspondence OF the Gazette
KINGSTON, TEX, March ] s.--0ur town,
which has been brought into some promi.
hence lately as the place where an editor
had tho audaciiy to actually shoot man
and accidentally wound two other indi.
viduals, IS situated about ten miles north.
west from Gainesville, the county seat Of
Hunt, and is the trading point for a very
fine farming country it has about five
hundred live, thrifty people, all engaged
in harmoniously pushing forward the car
Of progress, for mutual advantage, and is
at least famous for pretty women and fat
babies
The town Is only five years old, vet
IL has as fine school-houso as
any town la this section can
boast Of, besides two handsome church
buildings and one other now in construc-
ton watch will be erected during the
Summer our merchants carry as good
stocks as can be found anywhere, and are
as clever as anyone could wish.
The absorbing topic, as elsewhere, Is,
OF course, the railroad strike, and every
body Is wishing for speedy solution of
this yeXing question. Everything is
quiet, and were 1t not for the two lone
some passenger trains which pass here
every day and the two streaks OF rust
which seem to terminate in the dim dis
lance, one would conclude we had no
railroad at all. Oh, when Will this cruel
war be over2
Politics is now boiling, our city being
on the eve Of municipal election, IN
which one mayor, five aldermen and one
marshal are TO be elected. So far but
few have obtained their consent TO be
sacrificed on the altar Of their country.
The ladies OF the Baptist church give a
supper Tomorrow night, the proceeds of
which are to he used TO start fund to
build church-house.
Editor Howard of the Kingston Chron-
icle, who recently shot Marshal Russell,
is still at large. His friends say that he
can be found whenever his presence ia
necessary Marshal Russell and the two
other wounded parties are rapidly recov-
ering, and will all soon be we'll. Mr..
Howard has hosts of friends and stands
well in the community.
The farming season has fully opened
and farmers are busy at work. 1t is to
be hoped they will not plant as much cot
ton this year as they did last year.

A GREAT deal Is said about the rotten
ness Of the New York municipal govern
ment and the disclosures Of fraud aud
bribery now being made in the alder
manic investigation justines the harshest
thing that Gun be said But It is doubt
full II the New York city government Is
rottener than that Of other cities. Human
character IS about the same everywhere.
Probably there IS not a single city OF I'M
portance in the land whose local council
cannot be purchased. The New YORK
council committed the great mistake OF
being found out II the aldermen had
covered their trails, they might have gone
on posing as great reformers,

say: fTf free trade Is such q blessing,
why is not England more prosperouss
She has no protective terift, and she Is
worse of than the United States"
That England IS in poor plight
may be true, but IL IS not
on account Of free trade. For number
Of years England has produced very poor
crops and agriculture the chief source OF
any nations prosperity is depressed.
Again, the conditions existing there are
widely different from the state OF things
in this country. A few men own all the
land, and peasant tenantry Is forced 70
pay for the rental Of the same, whatever
the harvest may be. The trouble in En-
gland has deeper root than may be found
In any question OF commercial policy or
public economy. 1t lies mainly In the
whole social structure Of the country.
The people are growing weary of existing
institutions, and are quite likely 10 abol-
ish at no distant day the rotten regime OF
an impotent aud fast decaying monarchy.
Then aristocrats whose ancestors stole
the lands their degenerate descend
ants now occupy will have TO go, and
the reign of the people will begin.
But to get back to our own shores. The
speclous argument that the tariff benefits
the workers by causing them to get higher
wages needs no other refutation than the
present condition Of the country. II it
really had this effect there would be no
occasion to resort TO strikes. The tariff
alone would settle the wage question.
The next cry of the protectionists is that
the tariff benefits the farmer. How? "By
creating market for his products"
There may be here and there farmer in
nocent enough to swallow that very trans
parent assault upon the truth, but such
innocents are happily rare II this were
true, farmers who dwell in sight of the
lofty factory chimneys OF PittsbuIg and
Philadelphia would not sell out and
move to the praires OF Kansas,
Colorado and Texas, thousand
miles from the smoking chimneys
and the hum of the spindles. This
they are constantly doing, though in
their new homes there are no factories
with their hordes Of operatives to buy
the products of their truck farms. Why
should they leave the manufacturing cen
tiers If their produce brought them re-
muncrative prices The fact is that they
have not grown rich, and though some Of
them have been in the business for a
quarter of century all the time under
the operations Of high protective tariff
they are willing to pull up stakes and try
their luck in a frontier region
The cause of free trade is the cause of
the farmer, the cause Of the people, and
it will eventually win. It is based on
sound economical doctrines, and while it
may cut down the profits Of a few men it
will advance the interests of the masses
Protectionists by departing from the prin-
ciples of freedom, by enacting laws taxing
one man for the benefit of another, by
making vast combinations possible, bring
about just such state OF ldleness, de-
preston and hard times as caused the
recent strikes.

W. pR0TEoTIONISTS ANSWN.

LET PROT'ECTIONTSTS ANSWER.
From all parts Of the country continue to
conc accounts Of workngmcn's strikes for
higher wages Instead OF striking, It Is strange
that these worklngmen do not patiently await
the blessed operation Of the tariff, which, &C.
cordlug to protecuonist authority, Is the
mighty motor In raising the wages OF labor
/ philadelphia Record.
The worklngmen of this country have
listened to thesong of sirens more shame
less and dcluSiye than those who in
ancient days lurel luckless mariners to
destruction, by the witchery OF their
magic music Ulysses and his com
panious alone escaped them, and to save
themselves had to stuff their ears with
wax to shut out the fatal yet maddenlng
melody, to listen to which meant death.
The workingmen Of America might
learn lesson from the classic legend
1t Is full time they were closing their
ears 90 the ialacious and selfish pleas ad-
yanced by manufacturers on this side Of
the Atlantic. The changes have been
RING on fostering industries" and the
'pauper labor Of Europe" TILL those old
WORKOUT phrases have become thread
bare. If our protective tariff is so great
a blessing, by enabling men whom 1t pro-
tects to pay higher wages than are gwen
in Europe, why is it that the country has
been repeatedly cursed with strikes al
moot fr,r, ,nn. npd 20 .thn ntbavo NXrh,, L,
II that mill operatives in every protected
industry in the land cry out that their
wages VIII hardly keep body and soul to.
getherY such questions are pertinent
just now ATuihtul answer to them will
reveal ali the deceit aud rotteuness of d
system that more than any one cause, or
half-dozvn causes, is responsible for the
troubles Indicated above,
ouly few days ago the farmers Of
New Jersey wanted Mr. William Walter
Pnelps,to ask of the secretary OF state
why Germany, France and Austria have
prohibited the importation of American
pork, IL Is true that the reason alleged
by these governments is the fear of inn
porting disease. Lying back of this is the
real cause, which Specialization. BY the
high rates of duty levied on imports
from the countries named, their
products are virtually prohibited from
coming here, England is taklug,a mimi
mum quantity OF all that America pro-
duces. She does not want our wheat,
taking in preference the inferior Indian
cereal. Here again may be seen an IL
lustratlon of the lex tallonis British
goods are taxed so that they cannot come
into competition with those of home
make, and England is only obeylng a
naturallaw when she in turn strives to do
without the products Of country which
discrIminatcs against and cripples her
trade by an iniqultous tariff that favors
the few to rob the many.

confne themselves 70 their Legitimate
functions, the interest Of employer as
well as employe are advanced, and that Il
Is only When the organization transcends
| It's legitimate purposes that e works in
Jury TO either. Glass organization
arouses opposition only when Il assumes
] to control others instead Of protecting
Itself
Glass organization should limit itself
directly to class interests, because other
wise It iuyades the interests Of another
class and brings about a clash between
different elements Of society. IN
other words, It Is within the iuris-
diction OF an organization to consider the
question OF wages, because that relates
directly to itself Aud any lawful means
which It may take TO enforce It's DEGREES
with respect 10 such matter are entirely
legitimate. But 1t Is not within the leglt-
innate province Of any organization to
seek to control the personal affairs Of any
other element with whichit may have deal
ings. Such methods would certainly be as
doubtful as the efforts Of another element
to control the personal affairs Of its own
membership. The employe has the right
to demand Of his employer sufficient re-
Enumeration for his work, and he has the
right to organize for the enforcement of
that demand. But he has not the right
to say, either as an individual or as the
member Of an organization, you must or
you must not employ any particular in
dlvldual, for that is an encroachment on
personal rights as sacred as his own,
Much less, has any organization the right
to invade the precincts Of commerce, and
dictate who shall and who shall not do
business there. To admit the existence
of such right is to declare such organi-
zation virtually the sovereign Of trade,
without whose license no individual can
become factor in its exchanges
Glass organizations are defensive in
their nature. They are the outgrowth OF
a desire for projection. Their methods
should be protective aud not offensive.
Whenever an organization degenerates
irto mere machine of ambition, seeking
to usurp the laws Of trade and OF society,
It becomes dangerous to every other
class
Glass organizations should be so in
fact as well as In name The attempt to
absorb every other class simply results
in conglemorate mass without any
common interest, and, therefore, with
out any distinctive aim. Such organiza-
tion becomes q prey to piratical dema-
gogues and can only hold together so
long as It continues useful for their
purposes
Let IL always be remembered that So
ciety is the grand central organization of
humanity, and that It's judiciary is the
court OF appeal for all civilized COM
munities, and the question of preroga-
tiyes in inferior organizations will be
simple one No particular element in
society can ignore the established system
Of administering justice 70 all without
abridging the rights OF every other ele-
ment

SUSPICION that the killing of Capt.
Crawford by band Of Mexican soldiers
last winter was premeditated has become
so strong that the secretary Of state orders
an investigation. That mistake such as
the Mexicans allege could have occurred
is impossible II has been shown that
Capt. Crawford had held parley with the
Mexican commanding officer, and was re.
turning to Ills party when the MeXicans
began firing and kept it up until Capt.
Crawford was killed and several other
Americans wounded. Then the ire was
returned and six or seven Mcxicaus
killed Finding that they were likely to
get the worst Of it, they ceased firing,
and the Mexican officer in charge reported
that it was the result OF lamentable mis-
take, as his men were under the impress
sion that the Americans were Indians.
Suppose that 1t is proved that che killing
of Capt. Crawford was Intentional, and
the Mexican government refuses to sur
render Perez, the offending officer, or to
punish him, what Is to be done about itt
