PRESS COMMENTS.

From the New York Tribune.
Tie tariff of 1880 comes at an suspicious
moment. when the admission of six new
States gives assurance that a reversal of
policy cannot be expected in the Senate, al
least until the new measure has been fairly
tried. For at least six years no change hos
tile to the protective purpose is 10 be feared,
unless the results of the tariff shall greatly
disappoint its advocates II industries cheap
en- products, build up new employments for
labor, and broaden the home market fo- ag-
riculture and the mechanical arts, a grander
future than the country has yet imagined
will confront those who may hereafter at
tempt to overthrow the protective policy.
From the Neadville Republican.
To sum up with, Emery asks too much Of
the public he asks intelligent, God-fearing
men 10 believe his senseless TRADE Of abuse

and pumped full of the egOtism ofa man

It is the duty Of the next Legislature 10 APP
portion the state into Congressional, Senate
rial and Legislative districts These ques-
tons are vital to all of our districts, and
therefore to the people. The Republicans
will want man in the Executive chair who
will not veto all their bills and call another
session 10 do impossible things. II Pattison

foolish session is sinevitable. Elect DIANA

Governor Beavers speech at the court
house last night was 8 most complete

administration with that of Governor beaver
and other Republican Governors. laudi ng

began 10 think that his own statements were

PENNSYLVANIA is the banner Republic
can State Of the Union. Capable Of Civ
ing q Republican majority ranging from
fify to eighty thousand, We to-day find
Democratic journals and Democratic ora
tons proclaiming that she will elect a
Democratic Governor and il is hoped
that this mighty revolution can be effect
ed by the simple but dirty process of
throwing mud at the Republican candi-
dates. This is not novel kind of tao
tics. by any means il Is only a re-trial
Of old. well-worn and never successful
methods. The readers of history know
that Washington, Madison, Jackson and
the elder Harrison we're thus assailed, as
were Shultz. Porter and the earlier Gov
ernors of this State while Lincoln was
Yilifed as perhaps no other man ever
was. These are but few samples Of the
victims of political lying, and yet these
men ali gave the country and the State
administrations that are remembered
with admiration and gratitude. Men,
conservative and good men, shook their
heads and doubted few lent ear to the
calumnies snd, TO their lasting regret,
east in their lot with the calumnators,
while after events proved the ground
lessness Of the ISLANDERS and gave the lie
to their concoctors. History will repeat
itself. however. The political Annania'
hes come down to US from remotesi
times, and, We presume, will claim hi'
victims and his dupes while the world
survives. Had MIR. Delamater remained
in the walks of private life he would
probably have lived and died honored
by all, with a reputation against which
calumny had not winged single arrow
but, ambitious TO serve in & public capac
ity, he at once became the target for po
iitical malevolence-th mark agains
which personal foes can safely eruct thei
venom. A campaign Of this characte
never did and never will win while mel
retain their manliness. Political scav
engers may revel in the slime and filth
they cast upon their adversaries, but thl
innate, instructive love of fair play an,
manly battle of the average Americal
citizen will assert itself, and we doub
not that now, as ever heretofore, the Re
publicsns of the State Will prove thei
fealty to party principles at the polls i
November next.

propose to give our customers the benefit of

The franchise in Mississippi.

From the Lancaster lnggirRT,
The Mississippi Convention for the pur-
pose Of revising the Constitution OF the State
has adopted the foIloSing clause to go into
effect after Jan. /, 1895.
Every qualified elector shall be able 10
read any section Of the Constitution OF this
state or he shall be able 10 understand the
same when read TO him, or give reasonab bic
Interpretation thereof.
Five years from the lst Of January next
this clause goes into effect. Until that time,
il is reasonable to infer, the present Miss
issippi plan the revolver and the shotgun
are to answer But when the clause goes
into operation who is to determine whether
a voter understands what is read to him, or
can give reasonable Interpretation TO II. 1t
looks very much as If it was intended to
give the white men in charge Of the polls
the power TO rule out under these clauses
the ignorant Negro vote and rule in the igno-
rant white vote. Such 8 pitiful prevsriea-

THE price Of silver has taken another
sharp rise. An advance Of > per cent.
was reported the last day Of September.
The value Of our silver coin has increased
under Republican influence more than
$i00,0o0.0O0. The lowest price ever
reached was little before the Republi-
can National Convention Of 1855 pledged
the party to favor the use Of both gold
and silver as money. 1t has been rising
ever since. There is every reason TO be-
lieye that the metal value of silver will
he equal to rs legal value before very
Ioae. and that gold and silver will thus
be put upon practical equality. Under
Clevelsnd's influence the tendency was
downward.
