The spring elections are at hand. We
trust the Republicans all along the line will
nominate straight party tickets, that prompt,
efficient and capable will be nominated for
every office and that a full vote may be
pOlled. In that case the result will not be
doubtful, and as consequence the people
will be well served by these officials who
really have more influence for good or i'll
than have officials in the higher places of
profit, trust and honor.

What shall we do about sugar seems to
be the all important question before the
Ways and Means committee, and the Re-
publican members seem to be i'm doubt as to
what is best. Well. THE TIMES has no
doubts on that question and believes after
careful study that the best thing to be done
is to make sugar absolutely free, and to
give home producers bounty of two cents
pound, or Whereabouts. Yes, let us have
free sugar, and thereby cheaper what is
used by workingmen all over the land, and
OF which after seventy years of continued
protection we are unable to produce more
than a tenth part that is needed for con-
sumption.

The Republicans CT Rhode Island, at their
State convention on Thursday of last week,
renOminated the present Republican incum-
bents on the State ticket of last year, with a
Republican for Attorney General, the pres
ent incumbent being a Democrat. The
convention enthusiastically endorsed the
administration of President Harrison, the
protective policy of the Republican party as
set forth in the Mckinley tariff bill now
pending In Congress, and praises Speaker
Reed for his unfaltering course i'm the
House on the quorum and other questions.
The nomination of Gov. Ladd and his
associates was q merlted compliment for
unusually efficient services. The election
which takes place on the first Wednesday
in April is looked for with much interest
because the changes in the constitution has
largely increased the number of voters, and
because the so-called Australian system of
voting is to be tested there for the first time.

During the closing scenes of the dis.
cussion of the tariff bill In the House,
the democrats played their usual gainc
Of "bnncombe." A resolution was
offered, by Mr.. Carlisle, for the recon-
mitment of the bill to the ways and
means committee, with instructions to
so amend the bill rs to reduce taxation
instead of imposing prohhiihlitoTy TAXA
tion upon imported goods. What
have our deGooratic statesmen ever
done to relieve the people from the
burdens of this "odious tariff that they
howl so much about. When in power,
they sat and sucked their thumbs and
cried "robber tariff" and, when out of
power, they have voted against every
move on the part of republicans to re-
form our tariff laws, closing their little
play, when possible to do so. with II
campaign farce similar to the resol,l-
ton referred to. The democratic cross
roads orators will be bowling them
selves hoarse next fall, trying to con-
vince the dear people that this resolu-
ton should prove ,conclusively that the
democratic party :apd the democratic
party along, iR their friend. Such res
olutioiis are cheap and decidedly so
when offered solely for campaign pur-
poses. -5

We are told by Democratic editors
and orators, that the southern wing of
their party is now us loyal Ia the stars

But when such scenes are enacted as

of the monument erected to the mem
DRY Of Robert Z. Lee, the strongest
faith in the tru.hfrlpess of tie claim
is staggered. When Il southern city
is profusely decorated with rebel flags
that once iloated ut the head of the
army organized for the disruption of
this nation, 1t is not to be wondered at
that the professions OF loyalty, Oh the
part OF those participating in such Ger

one Dag known 10 tlc loyal citizens of
this nation and that is the emblem of

nothing it does not represent the same

Fifty thousand negroes have left the
state of North Curolinarduring the last
year and some oi the leading papers Of
the state have become alarmed ut the
prospect and say that it is high time to
put stop TO this immigration. The
State Chronicle, of Raleigh, North
carolina, says it must stop as 1t is en-.
dangering the crop interests Of the
state. We suspect there is also an
other reason for calling n halt in this
Immigration. Tho departure Of the
negroes from the state cuts down the
representation in congress aud the
southern Borrbons, willie not willing
that lhehegroes should vote, are al.
ways very anxious that everyone Of
them should be con.,ei by the census
enumeration. D
