Chances in the MILLS Ri,l

1t is a significant fact that, almost with
out exception, every change that has hear
made in the Mills bill since that meas,,-g
was reported from the ways and means
committee, has been in the direction of nrol
lection to American industries. When TIM
CONSTITUTION, the Augusta Chronicle ant5
other democratic newspapers insisted on Tho
recognition of the spirit of the democratic
platform they were advised by some of tboi,
esteemed contemporaries to walk over into
the republican camp, on the ground thai
one or two prominent men, including tha
-'arsee merchant, would be able to run tba
party satisfactorily.
Taking their cue from the attitude of these
esteemed democratic contemporaries. thu
republican orators and organs set I'D the ord
of free trade, and it is cry they have beeT
working for all it is worth in the north and
east. just what effect this cry of free-trade
has had on the people remains to be seen.
but it is certain thai such cry can have no
effect hereafter. For not only is the sprit
Of the tariff plank of the platform of 1884
recognized by the leaders Of the party, il
has been put in practical effect in the Mills
bill.
1t is probable that in the interminable
debate that has been going on, our readers
have lost sight Of the fact that the demo.
Gratis in the house have been engaged in
radically changing some of the features Of
the Mills bill. These changes come in the
shape Of amendments offered by members Of
the ways and means committee, but thew
are of such a character as to take the wind
out Of the republican sails so far as free
trade is concerned.
During the debate seventeen articles have
been stricken from the free list, and this
has been done for the purpose of meeting
certain industrial conditions that confront.
ed the committee. Just what rate of duty
will be imposed on the most Of these arti-
Giles that have been stricken from Mr.. Mills's
free list we do not know, but the fact that
they are taken from the free list is clear
and complete recognition of the principle
of protection to American industries. and
it ought to be effectual in closing the
mouths of the republicans who are now rum
ming around yelling about democratic free
trade.

THE OUTLOOK IN Europe is still peaceful.
Germanys new emperor does not seem dis
posed to get into a row with anybody, and
France has a big international exposition on
hand for 1889. Apparently nobody wants to
fight, and it is safe to say that there will
be no European war for year or two at
least.

THE JOINT LECTURES of Mr.. James A. Green
and DIR. y. Leboutillier, to be delivered at
Chautauqua this week, promise to be of very
great interest. The topics chosen are Foot
steps Of Longfellow," Nathaniel Hawthorne
and Oliver Wendell Holiness" and Ralph
Waldo Emerson" The story of the life and
life-work of each of these authors is told by a
careful student of American literature in q
breezy and original way that is departure from
the old methods and this is made doubly in
teresting by the stereoptcon views Illustrating
the different points.
Mr.. Green, the lecturer, is a thoroughly ed
ucated and cultivated gentleman, journalist
who has made an eryiablo reputation. He is
a clear thinker, forcible writer and as
lecturer is doservedly popular. DE Leboutil-
lier who illustrates the lectures. is an artist Of
recognized ability. The lectures will certainly
be worth hearing.

Mills Early Days in Texas.


Mr.. Mills was about seventeen
years old when he moved 10 Texas,
but he was precocious youth, with
all the love of your true Kentuckian
politics. lie first settled at Pales-
tine, and so IN entered the law office
of John II. Reagan as law student.
Mr.. Reagan was then the leading
lawyer of Eastern and Middle Texas,
and taking an interest in the young
Kentuckian immigrant, he soon had
him qualified for admission to the
bar. The law of Texas at the time
required lawyers to be twenty-one
years old; but tho Legislature
passed special act permitting Mr..
Mills to be admitted to the bar at
the age of twenty. Soon after be-
ing admitted to the bar Mr.. Mills
moved to Corsicana, then very
rough frontier village and hung out
his shingle.

"Je trouve que cette prison est gar

"Je trouve que cette prison est gar
NIGHT nebel," said Emperor William
TO King Humbert about the Pope be-
lug prisoner in the Vatican. Did
William want to overwhelm the
King by displaying his knowledge OF
French, English and German in one
short sentence, and not using a word
of Italian, which is the language OF
Humbert? That sentence may pass
into history. More than one inter-
probation has been put upon it,
William might have wanted the
King to understand that England,
France and Germany might form an
alliance and leave Italy out in the
cold ; or probably he might have
meant that the three powers might
make the Pope's quarrel their own.
There is no doubt but that England
would like to get on the good side OF
Lao so that his influence might be
obtained in the troubles with Ireland.
The Quen's present TO the Pope may
yet be worth more to England than
its original cost.

A Shooting AAcay.

We have received Information of d
serious shooting ARRAY which oc-
Cured IN the neighborhood of Fruit
Hill. this county, a few days ago. II
seems that man by the name OF
Bunch Cannon and another by the
name of Henry Word were both lay
ing siege to the heart of fair young
widow of the neighborhood and had
become very jealous of each other
Last Monday as Word was returning
from concert at Fruit Hill with the
lady they met Cannon, who, with
out any circumlocution, opened fire
on his rival, which was promptly re-
turned by Word. In the melee Word
shot Cannon. The wound is not a
serious one, and Cannon will soon
recover. "The pen is mightier than
the sword" and in this case Word
was mightier than the Cannon.

back TO this country. But how about
getting the $4,000 is the question.
