PROTECTIVE TARIFFS.
An Ubiquitous Institution Based Upon
MOnarchie Ideas.

An Ubiquitous Institution Based Upon
MOnarchie Ideas.
A tariff for protection is bottomed
upon monarchic ideas; the Anglo-Sax-
ons have never taken kindly to it They
made their first stand against unjust
tariffs levied on commerce, by the arti-
Gle of Magma Charta, when asserting
their rights against the King they de-
clared that ''all merchants shall have
safe conduct to go out of and to come
into England, and to stay there, and to
pass as we'll by land as by water, by
buying and selling by the ancient and
allowed customs, without any evil tolls. +"
A statement reading like a National
Democratic platform. Five hundred
years later. the declaration of independ-
ance denounced King George ''for cut
ting off our trade with all parts of the
world" The precise thing now sought
to be accomplished by the protectionist
majority in Congress. George frankly
and brutality forbade trade; his sue
cessors in trust seek to render it inpos-
sible, by the more cowardly process of
imposing taxes that double, triple and
quadruple the costs of imports to the
citizen The King openly granted mon
opolies to favorites and forbade COM
petition. The Congress sees the mon
opoly in existence. and protects it by
taxes at the borders. The English peo-
pie fought for their commercial free
dom at home; the American revolution
freed the trade of the colonists; and tho
Democratic party will accomplish as
much for our people by the peaceful
processes of the ballot-From Gen.

THE JAMAICA NEGRO.
He Is Not as Progressive rs His Brother

He IL Not as Progressive rs His Brother in
the United States.
Let us begin by saying that we be-
lieve that the faults of the negro, at
any rate in Jamaica, are in great meas
ure the natural result of his conditions
of existence. The absolute require
ments of every human being are there
SO easily supplied that when a man has,
as is the case with almost all individu-
ais of the negro race, no personal ambi-
ton which stimulates him to improve
his position, either for his own sake or
that of his children, there is little won
der If steady and continuous hard worl,
is peculiarly distasteful, and special
effort is hardly ever heard of. Sufficient
house shelter is very easily provided;
the climate is so genial that clothing,
except for decency or ornament may be
of the lightest and least expensive de-
scription; and, as we mentioned above,
the fertile soil yields food supplies to
the very minimum of exertion.
The negroes in general, though they
have a large enough share, of natural
quickness, have, as race. only the in
telligence of children, and their failings
are the failings of children. They are
quick enough to look after their
immediate personal interest," but
their mutual jealousy makes them
unable to combine for a settled purpose.
They do not commit great crimes. but
they are inveterate pilferers, and have
little regard for truth Legislative en-
actments have made them responsible
men and women. They have the full
privileges of men and women, and phil
anthropists have impressed upon them
that they are in every way the equals of
the white race.
And yet, how could it reasonably be
expected that in the course of the very
short period which has elapsed since
slavery was abolished, this negro race,
which started from the lowest physical
and mental degradation, should. almost
by itself. have developed its intelli-
gence and its morale as a race. beyond
that OF forward children? There might
have been such q reasonable expecta-
ton If there had been q larger white
population in Jamaica. and the negroes
had been generally mixed with it in
everyday affairs; but the negroes out
number the whites more than thirty
fold, they of necessity live altogether
by themselves. and there have been no
special circumstances to favor the

and business were combined.
The exercises consisted of music, both
vocal and instrumental, and ROTATIONS.
Miss Maud Peters again enchanted the
guests with the finish and beauty of her
voice, and Mrs. larson of Chicago
also delighted the audience. The
young violinist, Professor Bunker,
recent arrival in the city,
won admiration for himself and applause
for his exquisite touch and execution.
Miss Robertson also sang with pleasing
effect. There was also o recitation by
Miss Bronson OF Macon, Ca, which was
highly appreciated.
Miss Maud Peters first sang "'Laddie"
and with such effect that she had to re-
fully with "There Little Girl, Don't
