McCullock and the Tariff.


The venerable Hugh McCulloob, ex-
Secretary of the Treasury, is we'll ad-
vauced in years, but his mental powers
remain in good working order. The fol.
lowing statement OF the difference be-
tween the Republicans and Democrats
on the tariff question is admirably clear
and concise:
"Both parties believe that the govern.
ment must, as has always been the case,
be mainly supported by duties upon i'm
ports, but beyond this they are At vari-
ance The Republican party, according
to it's generally approved platform, be.
lieves that duties should be imposed not
only for revenue, but also, and mainly, to
protect home manufacturers from foreign
competition. The Democratic party, &C.
cording to its platform, from which there
are few dissenters, believes that duties
should be imposed for revenue, not for
protection; that Congress, under the con-
stitution, has no authority to impose
duties to protect manufacturers in the
United States against the manufacturers
of other nations; but while it believes
that duties should be imposed for revenue
and not for protection, it believes also thai
duties should be imposed mainly upon
luxuries aud upon such goods as are manu-
fsctared in the United States. so that
home manufacturers may have the inci.
dental advantage resulting therefrom in
their competition with foreigners. On
this point it now stands where the Wing
party stood when Henry Clay was it's
leader.
''The question, therefore, Immediately
and prominently before the country is
Shall duties be imposed mainly for pro.
lection or mainly for revenue-for pro.
lection as the object and revenue the incl
dent, or for revenue as the object and
protection the incident"

a. The reason why we in America
have no man of personal ascendancy in
affairs as Mr.. Gladstone or Prince Bis
msrck, in their respective countries, is
that there is no opportunity or occasion
for him. The Government in

the regulation Of atupendous business
establishment. The people themselves are
&C the helm. All they want is homes
capable service from their servants in
judicial, legislative aud executive offices.

WE write before the returns from Vir-

considers himself whipped. Hence his
vicious introduction at this time OF U. S.
Marshals. He wants thus to get the
blood of the Democrats up, to lag fuse
for an explosive fight of some kind, and
thus have ready an apology to the Ad'
minislration for bis failure 10 carry out
his part of the bargain he has made. And
mis- apology will no doubt be white intimi-

One Sociological Cause of Burg lary

Charlotte has burglars, and it has
loaters too. The loafng helps on burglary
and other acts unbeneficial TO society. 10
the code of Charlotte, we see no provision
against vagabonds, nor any section touch
ing the subject except Sec. 23O, which
only provides against obstruction to side
walks by crowds. Yet our citizens know
| that sometimes in certain places of this
city, our streets are Shiny with the saliva
of idlers aud the town Is sleepy with
gangs of aimless do-nothings. If a man
has nothing to do he is idle, if he is idle
his brain is generally unhealthilg busy
and it is this unhealthy business of brain
that matches up many cases for the mayor
and many burglars for the jury. The
trouble is the negro has no work, he gets
out of money-he steals. That's the
English Of it. The duty of the authori-
ties of this city is to make provision
against this horde of hsngers-on that
crowd our streets. Find out their busi-
ness, and II they are tramps get them out.
But there is nothing against tramps even
in the Code. Charlotte is disgraced and
her homes are endangered as a city by
this non producing shiftless mass of bar
baric negroes huddled all over her streets.
They are out of work and ready for any
thing to put money in their pockets, food
in their mouths, aud clothes on their back.
