If high tariff, and per Sc, high taxes,
breed prosperity, how comes it that
intelligent citizens continually appeal
against excessive appraisement of their
property; that the economical man
agement Of municipalities is warmly
commended as contributory to the
public welfare; and that one Of the
chief advantages of Republican rule
is its simplicity and inexpensivenessp
If Mr. Mckinley be right, then trad
ing between States and nations is
deluslon and snare; commerce is a
mere sham, and the whole theory and
superstructure of belief in the virtue
and superiority Of a republic, because
of its economic Administrations
monumental fallacy. Mr.. McKinley's
peanut policy would dwarf this nation
with its colossal resources into race of
clans, whose chief virtue would be to
crawl into their shell as the highest
elimination of their national destiny.
A sound fiscal policy cannot be crowd
ed into such pigmy proportions: the
true and only line Of PROCESS for this
nation of seventy millions of freeman
is fiscal policy which shall truly
foster and not handicap its own in
ternal resources. by the admission, free
Of duty, Of all raw materials as enter
into the material necessities and COM
forts Of the people. Under such
regime, Americans could command
their home market and at the same
time successfully compete with
foreign manufacturers for the trade of
this continent and elsewhere; our com.
merce would be restored and the
manufacturing interests of the country
be largely increased and stimulated.
These automatic truths were ad-
mrably illustrated IN Editor McClure's
able address, which is well worthy Of
careful perusal by every citizen Of the
land. There is no mousing or
equivocation in Mr.. McClure's address
and even those who cannot concur in
all of his propositions can but admire
the candor and frankness of his De-
claration. Such course is more
than refreshing in these days of evas.

partisan advantage. But the time is

Heroic Fire Protection.

The legislature Of this State, at its
session Of 1889, passed an act for the
better protection of lives in case of
fires in tenement houses, schools,
seminaries, colleges, academies, hospi-
tails, asylums, places Of amusement,
NC, more than two stories in height.
No objection can be urged against
proper and necessary protection life
should oe properly protected against
all possible contingencies Of fire in the
classes of institutions or buildings
named, but there is such thing as
unnecessary protection, and the act in
question, if literally carried out would
in every reasonable persons mind be
classed under that head. Imagine
for example, in every teachers and
and students room in the Normal,
on the third and fourth floors, "affixed
to a bolt through the wal over the
window head inside, a chain at least
ten feet in length with rope at least
one inch in diameter Of sufficient
length to extend to the ground; and
each such rope to be coiled and kept
in an unlocked box, in an unob-
structed place near the inside sill of
the window" With such means of
egress from stairways &c, as the Nor
NAL has, what need could there be of
special escape in each room, without
saying anything of the appearance of
the window with its chain and rope?
