Why They Are Alarmed.

The sthearing' before the ways
and means committee is soaring The
high tax Republicans, because:
Every man who has anything to lay
in that presence speaks for hims-lf.
He has an ax to grind. He wants
the tariff raised, or he wants it low
cred for his own individual benefit.
He is simply trying to fix things so
that he may make more money.
Not one of the men who asks for
more tariff make any pretense nat
his request is for anybody's bel eft
except his own. Not one Of item
has anything to say about wages.
All admit that tariff is a tax.
The beneficiaries of the tariff re
veal, by the demand that they m Ike
the fact that tariffs, when laid for
protection, are intended to give one
industry the right to prey upon al
other industries.
Almost every protected manufac'
turer who has yet appeared before
the committee wants more tariff anC
not less tariff.
In the case of the few who wan
less tariff on any particular article
it is always noticeable that that artI
Gle is one that they are compelled tt
buy-not one they have to sell.
This hearing is magnificent edu

ThR Race Question.

We clip the following from the
Moberly Optic. paper printed by a
very intelligent Negro. 1t contains
several big grains of truth: A
dreadful disaster is daily befall ng
the Negro; unless checked soon 1t
will utterly damn him. An Opt'c
reporter has recently visited the
principal cities of Missouri and Kan
sas, and to our astonlshment found
that the majority of the men lad
quit work entirely and wholly de-
pended on their wives and daughters
for support. In hundreds Of cases
where fathers have daughters from
eight to twelve years of age, they
hire them out in order that they may
collect the money to purchase wis
ky, and pay rent, while their wives
bring cold grub and seccnd-hond
clothes to clothe them. And yet these
honorary men present themselves
as leaders, and in many cases they
are the most prominent men in our
churches and society. They are the
first to make war upon a respectable
man or woman.
One of the most dangerous things
for the race to do is to put weapon
In an ignorant and lazy mans hand.
He will soon set torture to torture.
The destiny of the Negro hangs on
h,s morals. We have too manY
Greek and Latin scholars, let us ID
ucate our hands, and to do this
thrust some of the ignorance from
the puIpits and our deacon boards,
and school rooms. Let us check 'he
downward train from the pulpit to
hell, and lift light of moral from
the school room to the pulpit heav-
onward. Aad the few men who are
trying to do something for the race
will feel encouraged. But, at pres
ent, the danger lies at our feet.

THERE are many suspicious that
need crushing in the bud We fancy
that our friend is cool to US; We
suspect our neighbor of having
spoken i'll of us. Most likely we are
mistaken, and. in any case, we could
not profitably search into the matter.
Our trust in our friend, or our own
self-respect, should lead us to put
away all such thoughts, to abandon
such suspicion. Some one, perhaps,
has dropped poisonous word OF
scandal into our ears. Let us banish
it from our thoughts with scorn.

Great scott doctor, do you refer
to yourself? Surely, you must, as
you seem to have a corner on all
such business. 1 don't know of any
one who pretends to compete with
you.
There is doctor in our town
Who always prefers to act the clown,
Plays cards all night, drinks whisky by
the glass,
And is generally known as a rabid -
Another great hobby which almost
throws this doctor into fits Is what
he calls the specially business. L
will say that almost every doctor of
learning has arrived at the conclus-
ION that the domain of medicine is
so wide that it is almost impossible
for anyone mind TO grasp only q
small portion and do it justice,
though 1 do not believe that any
doctor should be narrow-minded
specialist. He should first be gen.
eral practitioner so as to become
conversant with diseases in general
and understand their bearings on
special diseases. There are several
doctors in the county, and in fact,
all over the country, doing a general
practice but who make a speciality
of some particular branch or medl-
cine and give the larger part of their
study to that special department. A
doctor recently practlcing at Dalton,
also several at Brunswick, make a
special study of surgery in their
general practice. Are they all
quacks and fools1 1 give special
