To the Editor Of The Appeal;
| intrude 10 make q statement in reply to
n reported interview by an Araiqnche re-
porter with J. IL. Marshall, sheriff of Monroe
County, Miss, under date of March 26, 1889.
Mr.. Marshall is reported to have said that
but for q strong guard he had at our Jail on
Friday, the 22d instant the negroes, Harri-
son Blackburn and Wesley Clark, the brutal
murderers OF Capt. Hamilton, would have
been lynched.p
This statement, coming from our Sheriff,
is calculated to subject the good people OF
Aberdeen and Monroe County TO a very un-
just criticism, ard l intrude 10 make the
following statement, to-wit: The invcstiga-
ton by the Coroner's Jury Of the murder Of
Capt. Hamilton, which jury was composed
OF the best men Of our county, ELECTED evil
dence so convincing and overwhelming that
Harrison Blackburn and Wesley Clark muir
dered Capt. Hamilton, that il was prior 10
he trial and conviction of these ne
groes by our Circuit Court, which oc-
CURED In January. 1889, feared by some
that these negroes would be lynched
for their fearful and brutal deed. In older
to prevent this n public meeting was held,
composed Of over 500 people, who at this
meeting determined TO prevent the lynching
II II was attempted and to see that the law
dealt with them.
From that day TO this that sentiment has
prevailed and will continue TO do so.
The people Of Monroe County are law.
abiding and law-loying people. They know
their laws are able to protect them, and
they intend TO maintain them.

7HE TAX.

800 0O1Hh1 s1h
THE APPEAL, in behalf OF the manuiac-
turers, bankers, insurance companies and
all interested in business corporations in
the State, calls the attention Of the mem
bers Of the Legislature to an extract from
a speech recently made before a commit
tee Of the Ohio Legislature by Mr.. Thomas
G. Sherman, printed in another column,
setting forth among other things the I'M
fairness and injustice Of the double tax in
California and its effec, to induce evasion
and avoidance, misrepresentation, lying
and perjury. Mr.. shearman shows that
the whole system Of taxing personally and
privileges Is radically wrong and that, like
the income tax, IL results in un-
fairness. but he takes special pains TO
make the effect OF the double tax clause
Of the Constitution OF California apparent
as ruinous to the commercial and dnan-
cial interests Of that State. Nothing Is
gained by IL for tho State Treasury. It's
only crop is perjury and ruin. The Leg
islaiure OF Tennessee does not want TO in
yite anything OF this sort. 1t does moi
propose to destroy or cripple the interests
whose growth in the past ten years Is GU
daily boast, or erect a barrier against
further growth or commercial prosperity
within the limits Of the State. But this is
just what it will DO Il ii fails to amend
the assessment law ami exemp, either the
stock or the capital aud plant Of corpora
tons from taxation. Tax the capital and
plant and relieve the stock. or tax the
stock and relieve the capital and plant. 1t
would be maniiesily unfair TO tax the
farmers land and then capitalize all his
possessions land included. and tax him on
thai also. Yet this is the sort Of
injustice against which the MGR
chants and manufacturer, the bank
en- and insurance companies are
protesting. such an injustice, one so
manifest and plain, should not be permit
TO exist n moment after It has been
out We have faith in the Legis-
that seeing this they viii amend the
assessment law and relieve the commerce
d he State from this double burden. The
spirit manifested by both houses soiar this
has been n Of equity and fair
play, and We feel sure the consideration Of
.he double tax question will not develop
m exception. Justice demands II and the
Interests Of the State appeal for it.

nIp EoREIGN TRADE.

II Is n good thing to build up our foreign trade.
II needs building up. But there X room for doubt
that it can be done by such cxpedients as n tonnage
bounty or by restricting importations TO oargoes
brought in American bottoms. Trade means ex-
change Of products. We must consent to take the
products Of other countries in exchange for our
own. We cannot build up trade by offering 10 sell
for cash only, and refusing exchange Nor can II
be done by excluding all trade except whatcomes
on our own ships The countries with which we
wish 10 have m would retallate by exclud-
ing cargoes except such as came on their ships
This Is fatal TO reciprocal exchange. II II could be
made 10 work IN practice. Il would mean that our
ships should go ont empty aud com back full, the
~in-cargo paying the freight each way; while
foreign ships would CONT 10 Us In ballast and go
out loaded, the out-cargo paying both frelghts
The essence OF trade Is freedom TO seek Us w
channels and control IL own methods Of exchange.
We are not aware that any artificial system, de-
yised by legislation, has ever proved TO be a sue
cessiul substitute for this natural law Of COM
merce. AFd Cal'orliL
This is Of the very essence OF free trade.
To place conditions in the way OF trade is
10 restrict, restrain and cripple il. Subsidy
is protection in its most direct form. II is
part Of the protective system that prevails
in Continental Europe, n system that
stands condemned by the contrasting re-
suits OF British free trade. subsidize
as much as the Austrian, italian, Ger
man and French Governments may.
their steamship lines cannot compete with
those of England. Her trade is steadily
on the increase and her influence Is felt
throughout the world rs the greatest
pioneer in civilization. Her merchantmen
carry the word free with them wherever
they goand thus propagate freedom. But II
is not alone to England that We must look
for examples OF the benefits Of free trade.
Every once Of our States can furnish them.
II is the free trade between the States that
makes our internal commerce what II is.
Protectionisis like John Sherman acknowl-
edge this, and the fairness and value OF
free trade when they urge for q reciprocity
treaty, or commercial union with Canada,
by which custom-houses and customs dues
shall be abolished. Blaine made a similar
admission in his proposition for the annex
alton OF Cuba and san Domingo, and the
Republicans who have expressed them
selves in favor OF a commercial union with
Mexico have yielded their protective prin-

and free ships, and opposition to subsidy
and protection.
