SENATOR VANCE.

Senator Vance speaks as II he intenueo
TO be one of the foremost champions OF
tariff reform. He says that Congress has
no right 10 impose taxes in the interest oil
individuals, and that the constitution
limits its power to impose taxes ITO pay
the debts and to provide for the common
defense and welfare Of the United states.
Congress Is not empowered 10 impose
tariff taxes for any purpose other than
those named.
Thus Mr.. Randall proposes to put more
tax on tin so that number Of PittsburG
manufacturers could have richer field
for the protected article.
II: Is the essence OF dcspo'ism,' says
Mr. Vance, "to tax the citizens property
excep, to supper; the Government"
These are wise and straightforward
words tina, the Senator will doubtless tas'
many opportunities to repeat during The
coming canvass.

The New York Journal Of Commerce
says that twenty mayors messages
however able, could not contain stronger
arguments in favor of underground rapid
transit than those supplied by the great
storm. In the most auspicious weather
the means of traversing this city are insult
ficient for the public needs. More facili'
ties for getting up and down town are
imperatiyely required at all seasons OF
the year"
OF course the eleVated roads could run
fewer trains and carry the same number
Of passengers, and that was the specula'
ton they INDUCED in with the excuse
that in running the regular number OF
,rains In such weather there would be
great danger.

We believe that Mr. Blaine IL pulling
the wires systematically from behind the
blind of his declinative message, for the
moment any new candidate springs up
and waltzes out his little boom ali along
the Republican line there Is fire concen-
trated on him.
From this it may be concluded that Mr.
Blaine is In the ring as the survival OF the
tit,est. The Democracy need not hope
from their good luck and the propitious
status Of the peoples party for anything
better than another fair fight against the
Tattooed man.

The State is quite correct In its idea o'
preserving the high toned moral and So
cial principles Of the Old South. The
New South enthusiast is veiy often an
empty pocketed sensationalist only.
What the Southern people need Is TO
place themselves as promptly as possible
under the influences of the modern mer-
camille civilization, 80 that their manu-
features and commerce will be developed
as rapidly as possible. But the fact that
the old agricultural civilization was differ
ent from the modern involves no change
except in tho matter Of business educa'
ton. The manufacturer, miner, mer-
chant, and railroad man who brings the
highest character taught In the old
regime 10 the task Of new order OF
things, has the great advantage OF com.
mauding confidence and respect, which
in modern affairs IL part Of what bust.
ness men call mercantile credit.
There IL a sort of new South gable
that We particularly object TO, and that
is the complexion of humility, and please
forgive US, and oh, we were so badly
beaten, etc, that often is offered as the
incense of demagogues and very paltry
sycophants on the altar Of Northern
pride.
The North has right TO be proud OF
It's military achievements and OF its
people, and there is every reason now fol
mutual recognition OF noble qualities and
for q glorious and patriotic reconcilia'
ton; but there is no reason for sacrifice
OF dignity or whining expression OF
regret at tho course OF the Southern
States.
This people did according TO the teach.
ings of their fathers for generations, and
If they lad not done 30 they would de-
serve the contempt Of the world.
