Was Columbus a Pirate?

From the Memphis Apredl- AUaiGnche
The Sunday school idea Of Christopher
Columbus has recently suffered considera-
BILE mutilation. The fact that we are soon
to celebrate the 400th anniversary Of the
discovery OF America has naturally set the
historians fresh rpon the trail OF the great
discoverer. New sources Of historical in
formation have been found in the archieves
of Europe; and instead Of being sanity in
dividual, who proceed to discover this
country on the most approved Sunday
school literature plan, Columbus was as
wild blade as ever sailed the seas over
In the first place, it is very doubtful
whether Columbus was his real name.
In the next, it has been shown con-
clusively that he was pirate, and that he
belonged to one OF the most merciess bands
that ever scuttled a ship. Later on in life
Columbus was shipwreoked on the shores
OF Spain, and he was induced by circum-
stances to give up his piratical profession
and marry. Il is freely charged that in the
new world he plundered the indians in
order to satisfy the rapacity of his patrons
in Spain, and he also became a slave trader.
In short Columbus was the product of his
time, and not much better or worse than
the rest of his contemporaries.
The attempt of one of his critics
Justin Winsor, to make him out a mean
spirited creature, however, falls entirely to
the ground. The man who conceived the
bold project Of sailing round the world
of waters, penetrating that mysterious and
illimitable ocean, and continuing until be
came to India on the other side, was nc
coward. 1t was the most adventurous oon-
ception that has In all the centuries
dawned upon the mind OF man and it will
forever vindicate Columbus from the
charge of craven spirits No matter how
many dark crimes he was engaged in in
thai dark age, no matter how many In
dams he sold into captivity, that splendid
dream Of adventure which resulted in the
discovery of America, will always EMIT tie
him to be ranked among the worlds
greatest men.

PIcIuRns AND FOOLS.

Under the title OF Tariff Pictures" the
New York Press published the following
romance:
r. G. Hood. a skilled mechanic living
In Philadelphia, English by birth, says
that, having no family TO support, he
saved 500 a year by practlcing rigid
economy in England. When he came to
this country he found he could save $500
year while living just as we'll In every
particular. This sum is more than his
entire wages amounted TO under free
trade Are workingmen interested In
protection
Chilly quoting without thought or
Investigation the Georgetown Republican
commented thus:
Farmers, merchants and mechanics Of
Sussex we commend the above picture to
your view. From every hamlet aud viii
lage in this county and state has gone
/ forth some sturdy son to seek his home
and fortune In Philadelphia, or some
other city. and whose only hope Of success
depends upon proper remuneration for
mis- labor. II the Democratic doctrine Of
free trade was to prevail be would receive
English prices Can you afford to reduce
your sons wages and earnings over one
half to save'twO or three dollars q year
on suit of clothesf That's what 1t
amou IS TO.
In the FIRST place there is no such man
mentioned In the Philadelphia city
directory as "R. G. Hood, skilled
mechanic" In the second place. II he Is 8

exaggeratlons Of tln-plate foolishness
could be published by men of any stage
Of intellectual development But II is on
such inconsistent and reclxlessly foolish
statements that the entire protection
scheme is founded.
Protection does not affect wages; IL
does not affect the industries In which
the skilled mechanic works and there is
no possibility that the farmers, mer-
chants and mechanics of SUSSEX" will sell
what they may have to sell, at higher
prices because he is here and no. I'm Fog
land. On the contrary they sell at less
they sell under free trade, they bay under
an average Of 20 per cent. tax.
II the farmers Of Sussex were allowed
the privilege Of selling their produse in
England and In bringing tools, imple-
ments and clothes home, free, they would
be about seventy per cent. better of for
the transaction.
What do the farmers. merchants and
mechanics OF Sussex think OF the justice
Of the system Of laws which makes them
victims Of this robbery to protect the so
called infant industries, even II the
claims made for IL we're ever any nearer
the truth than this item about a man
whose name is not in the city directory
and whose alleged statements are alb.

One Of ,ns even slsepsrs.

A Young man who is generally to be
found In the office Of the recorder of
deeds placed himself In very unpleasant
predicsment on Sunday night.
BE had made an engagement to spend
the evening with his best girl, who lives
In the neiRhborhood Of Eighth and Madi-
son streets
He had been out rather late on satur-
day night and did not feel qualified to
out-sit all Corners unless he took nap.
Between 0 and o'clock he flung himself
on his bed, and thought be would rest
exhausted nature by reclining few
minutes In the arms of Morpheus, he
slept, and slept, and slept.
In the meanwhile pretty brunette,
with yeafning heart and flashing eyes,
walked the carpet In sher Madison street
home and sang Where is My Wander
ing Boy Tonight" There was no answer
to her sad refrain, but IL she could have
seen her wandering boys face when he
awoke at 10 o'clock midnight her heart
would have been moved to pity
He cursed everything from Father
Time to Congress water and sat down to
write out an apology which informed his
beloved that he was called out Of town by
the death OF dear friend, and did not
even have time to express his regrets ~
her.

Tomorrow the EVENING JOURNAL will
publish an exhaustive review and compar
alive statement of.the county finances for
G 20 years. This is done for the purpose
Of showing the present condition Of the
sounty under the new system; to show
what economic ideas the Democratic party
has and how It keeps its promises
From the inception Of the Five Com
missioners bill the EVENING JOURNAL
has been the champion Of the great meas
IRE. Il was the FIRST to publish it as hrst
drawn; the first to endorse It and urge
It's speedy passage by the Legislatures and
the first to announce TO the public at
large that amendments had been made
that suited the views OF Senator James
williams, Of Kent county. and that he
would vote for IL.
Through all It's stages Of passage and
amendment the EVENING JOURNAL never
faltered. It demanded the passage Of the
bill as public necessity, and was as
su ed that nothing less than It's passage
would eerve the ends Of a sound financial
policy for New Castle county.
The bill was conceived by adversely
and born Of necessity Democrats and
Republicans conceded that a radical
change was necessary. This change, 1t
vas conceded, was called for, not because
OF faulty levy. but because the old
financial system was Anticipated and had
become practically imperative, so thst
the number Of errors returned made IL
almost impossible for the county to meet
It's legitimate demands or TO produce a
Just levy.
The Five Commissioners act has proved
itself panacea for all the county ills
The collections are larger; the errors are
less; the cost OF collecting Is reduced
materially, and the commissions have
been replaced, In the main, by rebates,
which remain In the pockets OF the tax
ables.
Thes reforms were well conceived and
faithfully executed. The Democratic
party can afford to 60 into the canvass
on the record Of this bill and its results
The statement that we shall publish
should be read and preserved It is equal
TO trial balance Of the years business
IL Is a ticker showing In condensed form
within the comprehension Of any
person who can read the financial re.
suits Of the new and Of the old systems
at a glance.
