Four days passed and we were nearly
famished. Bone had ceased speaking
about the water, but noticed that he

and we, too weak to stir around, were
sitting near the edge of the water, when
suddenly Bone, uttering an exclamation,

Tom ran down and held out an old rail.
Bone came out, bringing with him an

arose a yell of Joy.

THE LATE REVOLT.

The Lessons Taught by the Late Elections
-ArroRance Rebuked - Educating the
People.
The election returns indicate q decid-
ed change in the political complexion
of the next Congress. The change OF
front can be attributed more to Repub-
lican arrogance and assumption, and
the better education of the people,
than any other cause, and should be
considered more in the light OF re-
buke to that party than victory for
Democracy. The defeat of the party is
as crushing as it was unexpected by
them, and should carry with it lesson
long to be remembered. 1t Is revolt
OF labor in production against present
conditions, and a trumpet call for a
change In the economic policy OF the
Nation. 1t is the natural outcome Of
proper educational methods among the
people, and proves conclusively that .

it may reap substantial benefits from

with present success without applying

these gains as triumph for the doc

Unfriendlv to the South.

That the Republican party is unfriendly
to the south is shown very conspicuously IN
the Mckinley tariff bill The republicans
OF the House put sugar, which is almost
wholly southern product, on the free list,
and provided for bounty to the sugar
planters, although they well knew that a
bounty would be unpopular and that the
payment of it would not, in all probability,
be continued for more than year or two,
owing to the clamor against it in the north
and west. They also reduced the
duty on rice, another southern
product, although they had ample
information to the effect that
as long as the rice planters were prevented
from getting cheap supplies and cheaper
labor by the high protective policy of their
party, the rice planters could not make
more than living with the present duty on
rice. The republicans of the Senate have
gone further than those of the House in the
direction of lowering the tariff on rice.
They were not satisfied with the blow
which those of the House struck at the
south's agricultural interests, and so they
struck a blow of their own.
1t is worthy of notice that while the
duties on the foregoing southern agricul-
tural products are greatly reduced in the
Mckinley bill. the duties on the products
of the farmers of the northwest, which come
into competition with those of Canadian
farmers, are greatly increased. The dis
elimination against the farmers of the
south and in favor of those in the north
west ia SO marked as to excite comment
And it must not be forgotten
that the duty on cotton ties, which
are so necessary to the cotton planters, is
increased in the Mckinley bill The truth
is that the Republican party is hostile to
the south, and misses no opportunity to
discriminate against her

Blaine.s Free Trade suggestion.


Senator Hale's proposed amendment to
the Mckinley bill, based upon the sugges-
ton of Secretary Blaine, is that this coun-
try shall admit free of duty the products
upon which there is no export duty of all
countries of the American hemisphere
which admit the products Of this country
free Of duty. Mr.. Blaine thinks that we
should derive some reciprocal benefits from
the admission of sugar, coffee and other
things free, and there is no doubt that he is
right about it. Although it is proposed in
the Mckinley bill to admit raw sugar from
Cuba free of duty the Cuban authorities
have placed prohibitory duty on Amerl-
can -four.
Although the adoption of Mr.. Blaine's
suggestion would help to increase our trade
with Central and South America, it would
not give us such control of the trade of
those countries as we ought to have. As
long as the republican policy of high pro-
! lection Is adhered TO our manufacturers
cannot find a market for their products
in the countries south of us. The duties on
the raw materials which they use
make it impossible for them
TO compete with the manufactures
of Enrope, and as long as the European
manufacturers can undersell those of this
country we can hardly expect to get any
considerable share of the trade of Central
and South America. The adoption of
Mr.. Blaine's suggestion, however, would
help us to get some of it, but we shall not
get very large share of it until the demo-
cratic tariff doctrine is adopted
