NEITHER REED NOR MCKINLEY
"VINDICATED."


The Supreme Court in deciding that
Congress has the constitutional right,
which was not disputed, TO make what
ever rules for its guidance it chooses,
did not vindicate REED any more than
the Courts decision that the Mckinley
law does not transcend the constitution
vindicates McKinleyism. To say that
the decision in the latter instance is a
vindication of the legislation Of the
5lst Congress would not be absurd if
the act had been criticised and denounc-
ed by the people chiefly on legal or con-
StitutiOnal grounds. But the McKin-
ley tariff has been attacked principally
on the ground that it was an uLwise,
unjust. and unduly burdensome meas
ure Of taxation. The Congressional
power of taxation itself has never been
questioned. That power admittedly
may be employed with destructive force.
1t was used years ago to destroy the
State banks circulation. 1t is, also,
now proposed to use this same power
for the total suppression of a public
nuisance, the Louisiana lottery. No
body denies that Congress has the polC-
or TO exercise the same right of taxation
in such manner as TO overburden legi-
innate industry, to foster monopOlies,
and TO reduce the earnings and savings
of the people. Whenever such abuses
Of power occur the people cannot APP
peal TO the Judiciary. They must right
their lCrORgS themS lUeS.
In passing Judgment on the McKin-
ley tariff the Supreme Court has simply
declared that this law does not conflict
with the Federal Constitution. No de-
cision has been rendered or could be
rendered upon the merits, the justice,
and the wisdom of the measure. That
question can be decided only by the
people at the polls. The only express
sion of their Judgment thus far made
was an emphatic condemnation of the
Mckinley act. By the last COMPRESSION
al elections the Republican majority in
the House which passed this law was
transformed into an Insignificant mi
noritY.
How long the new tariff of abomina-
tions shall stand will depend upon
further expressions Of the people.

Judge e. Boyd Faulkner.

The Shepherdstown Register of this
week publishes the following brief
sketch of Judge Faulkner, of the Thir-
teenth Judicial Circuit:
Hon E. Boyd Faulkner was born In
July, 1871, at the home OF his distin-
guished father, Charles j. Faulkner, in
Martinsburg. His education was under
select home preceptOrs, then at George
town, d. c., and at the University OF
Virginia.
While his father represented the
United States at the Court of st. Cloud,
in Paris, France, he travelled in Italy
and Switzerland, after which he attend
ed lectures upon constitutional law in
Paris, and at the age of eighteen years
was acting as Secretary of the Ameri-
can Legation.
At the beginning of the civil war in
America, he returned home and cast
his destiny with the South, under the
banner of his native State, Virginia,
and was, for time, aid on the staff OF
Gov. Letcher, but resigned to serve as
an officer in the Confederate army. In
June. 1861, he was captured and with
other prisoners taken to Johnson's
Island. where he was confined one year.
The war over, In 1865 he went to Hop
kinsviIle, KY, as the law partner OF
Judge Petree, and In the Seymour cam
paign of 1868 he was made elector OF
the Second Congressional district Of
that State.
Four years later he resumed citizen
ship at Martinsburg, w. Va, and was
elected to the House OF Delegates, in
1876, from Berkeley county, where he
served with ability and prominence, and
with fidelity to his constituents. They
so endorsed him that in 1878 he was
elected to the State Senate. He de-
clined, at the hands of his party, the
presidency of that body, and in 1884 he
was prominent candidate before the
Democratic convention for the nomina-
ton for Governor.
President Cleveland, in 1885, rendered
to him the Office Of Consul General to
Egypt, which he decided not TO accept.
He was then offered the Mission to Per-
STA, which he also declined. He is one
of the leaders OF his party in this State.
and an able and popular lawyer, with
an extensive and lucrative practice.

LYNoHLAW NEW YoRK.

The New York sun tells strange
story and vouches for its truth.
Monday evening about 5 o'cloak six
well-dressed young men, each carrying
a coil Of heavy rope, walking down East
Twenty-sixth street TO the river. Five
waited at the end Of the street. The
sixth walked down to the end Of the
pier. A little later another well-dressed
young man sauntered down to the end
of the pier and greeted the young man
there. Suddenly the other FIVE swooped
down. AT the same instant the first
young man seized the other and held him
tightly. The other FIVE tied the ends
of their ropes about the arms and
and shoulders of the imprisoned one,
and then ali six heaved him overheard.
The six held the ropes and raced inshore
the length Of the pier, dragging the
struggling man through the icy water.
s.Help! Murderl Police" the victim
screamed. The screams were heard by
police and special wstehmen. They ran
down the street to the pier, halted,
folded their arms and waited, The six
with the ropes raced up and down the
pier again, dragging their half-drowned

victim. They stopped at the end of the
pier and slowly hauled the man up.
They let him stand shivering on his
feet while they united the ropes. Then
they pushed him and mauled him and
kicked him. and dozen citizens joined
them. With wild shrieks Of pain the
man lied mp the dock aud up the street
and was lost. The six gathered up their
ropes and walked away.
The policemen and the watchmen
made no arrests.
The Sun gives no names and no ex-
PLANTATION, but it seems probable that
some offense against decency has been
punished in New York City by what we
call. when itappears in the West, Lynch
law.

AYALUABLE REMEDY.

BRANDRETH's PILLS purify the Blood,
stimulate the Liver, strengthen the
Kidneys, regulate the Bowels. They
were introduced in the United States in
1885. Since that time over sixty mil
lions of boxes OF BRANDRETH's PILLS
have been used.
This, together with thousands OF con-
vincing testimonials from all parts of
the world, is positive evidence Of their
value.
BRANDRETH's PILLS are purely vege-
table, absolutely harmless, and safe to
take at any time.

still farther, in the remainder of the
country?
Time and again the REGISTER has
called attention to the steady decrease
in the value of farm lands under our
present system of Observation-Disclosures
the tariff laws enacted by Republican
Congresses.
This is simply continuation of the
story, and further illustration of the
benefits of our high tariff to the Aneri-
can farmer.

SENATOR CARLISLE says that in his
opinion the continued agitatin Of the
silver question in this Congress is not
only useless, but very unwise. He also
says:
Our true policy, it seems 10 me, is 10
secure as far as possible economy in
public expenditures, make clear and
emphatic record in favor Of the re-
ductiOn of taxation upon al the neces-
saries of life, urge the repeal of all
subsidies and boUnties TO favored inter
ests, and adjourn at the earliest possible
day. Upon all the questions which really
divide the Democratic and Republican par
ties a large majority Of the people will sup
port US, and # we can conhne the approach
Ing contest TO those questions aloae, the
victory is already won.
Mr.. CARLISLE is clear-sighted, sin
eere adviser; he is patriotic and unset
fish, and his voice should be needed.

SHOCKING ACCIDENT.
a Young Mans Arm Terribly Lacerated at
the Tube Works.

A shocking occurred at the River
side tube works in Benwood, shortly be-
fore one o'clock yesterday afternoon, in
which the victim was Thos. Marcuso-
vitsch, young Hungarian, who lives
on Forty-eighth street in this city.
While at work, in some manner a
shred of his shirt sleeve which was
torn, was caught in the machinery, and
before he could extricate his arm, the
flesh and part of the tissue upon his
left arm, between the shoulder and
elbow, were literally torn from the
member, making shocking wound,
and laying bare the muscles. He was
taken to his home, where Drs. Eskey
and Ford dressed his injuries.

ANOTHER TARIFF PICTURE.

In another column will be found the
complete report Of the assessment OF
realty in Ohio county. 1t is remark
able showing and is of peculiar interest
at this time. The total realty in the
county is 1863, $40, an increase over
last year of 81, 4S6, $50.
The remarkable feature Of the state
ment comes out in the detailed report
showing the localities in which proper
" values increased and decreased.
In the city OF Wheeling values in
creased 81, 56s,355 and an increase is
shown throughout the county where
land is used for other than farming
purposes. But when we look at the re-
ports from the farming districts we find
a decrease that is astonishing. The two
purely agricultural districts OF the
county, Liberty aud Richland, show a
total decrease in the value of farm lands
Of S2O5, O7O, or an average falling of OF
S5.95 an acre for the year. The same
is true of the agricultural portion of
Triadelphia district.
In the city districts and resident por-
tions Of the county, as for instance,
along the National Road, property has
increased in value. while in the agri-
cultural sections it has decreased to an
extent that is calculated to set one
thinking.
II this is true of Ohio county in which
there are fewer purely agricultural
lands than in any other county, what
must the case be in the remainder OF
the State, or to carry the illustration

HON. WILLIAM l.. WILSON has an
article in the st. Louis Republic, quoted
elsewhere, which attacks the high
tariff from a different standpoint from
that Of the money loss to the Ameri-
can consumer. Mr.. WILSON shows
very clearly what must be patent TO
every careful student Of the tariff, that
the Republican policy, or, rather, the
policy Of the tariff monopolies which
foot the Republican party's bills, is the
most serious menace 70 our free in
stitutions and to government by the peo-
ple. Mr.. WILSON'S article is not long
and is OF decided interest TO every
American citizen.
