A TARIFF COMMISSION

The idea suggested by Senator Plumb that there be a permanent commission to care for the tariff and take its regula- tion out of politics is a most excellent one, but its weakness lies in its imprac- ticability. It would not be possible to form commission competent to deal with the question whose members would be entirely free from political bias, and any conclusion they might reach would be open to the same objections that are now urged against congress. In fact the experiment has already been made and found to be impracticable. A com mission appointed by President Arthur in 1SS2-of which Robert P. Porter, the editor of the New York Press, who now favors Senator Plumb's idea, as a lead ing member-made an exhaustive inves- tigation of the tariff. It took testimony that fills three big government volumes and gathered a great mass of information bearing on the question. recommending as a result of it's labors a reduction which would have left the average rate about 30 per cent on duti- able goods. On the Sd of March, 1883, the republicans smothered the work of their own commission by passing a bill that reduced some duties and raised others, but left the general average about the same.
 No, the idea of a permanent tariff commission is not practicable. It might, indeed, do useful work if it could be wholly divorced from politics and it's members selected without regard to
 ke would doubtless be a

To the Colored Citizens of the Republic:
Now let the clansmen gather from
far and from near, and organize once
and for all the desperate fight before
US for absolute justice under the fed

that the time is ripe for the organiza-
ton of the National Afro American

nial of our constitutional and inher-
ent rights, SO generally denied or
abridged throughout the Republic,
and being urged to do 50 by members
of branch leagues all over the coun
try, I, with much reluctance, issue a
call to all the branches Of the Afro.
American League, and invite all
clubs and societies organized to Sc
cure the rights denied the race to
meet by their representative In Nat
ional Convention at Nashville, Tenn.
Wednesday, January 15, 1890, for
the purpose of organizing National

tions desiring to join in this move
ment is requested.

Alden's Manifold CyclOpedia

We are pleased to note the appearance oi
den's Manifold CyclOpedia. 1t was apparent
from the frst that this was to be the Cyclope-
dia for "the people," and each succeeding
volume emphasizes the great superiority of
the work for popular use over its far more
costly competitors. 1t is remarkably compre-
heDsivs. The fields Of Literature, science, art
and of all knowledge are thoroughly CLEANED.
The topics are ably treated, many illustrations
are given, and q vast amount of information is
condensed into small space. The articles are
written by experts in their various lines and
are carefully and skillfully edited. The re-
suits of the latest discoveries and inventions
appear. many Of the subjects being brought
down to June, 1889, and some even later.
Ameng the important topics treated in this
volume we notice Homo aule in Ireland,
Homestead Laws for all the States, Homoeo-
pathy, nearly pages, Hop, Horology, Horse,
Horse Racing, Horse Shoeing, and Horse Tam
ing. Hospitals, pages, Howard University,
Hydropathy, over 6 pages, Hypnotism, 4 pages
Hysteria, Ice, immigration, with valuable
statistics. Imports and Exports, with figures
for the United States covering 100 years and
brought down to June, 1889, Indians. pages,
Intr oduction of Electric Cur ents,S pages In
the line Of biography we find articles On Ho-
mer. Hood, Hopkins, Horace, Howeiis, hugo,
Humboldt, Hume, and Hunt, while among the
Countries aud States noted are Honduras;
Hungary, Iceland, Idaho, Illinois: India, 35
pages, Indiana, pages, and Iudian TeIritor /,
including the opening of Oklahoma. The
price OF this great work is almost Incredibly
low. The first nineteen volumes in cloth bin
ding will be sent upon rece pit OF $500 or in
in half Morocco style for $3.50, if ordered at
oLce. A specimen volume, subject to return
if not satisfactory, will be forwarded for 90
cents in cloth or IS cents in half Morocco.
