Capture Of a Tacoma Burglar.

TACOMA, Jan. 50-[Special. Tine man
who was found last night in Mrs. ". II.
Woodruff 5 room, at her home on South G
street, was today held for trial in the
superior court. and will probably be made
an example of and given five or six years
in prison. 1t is thought that the mis-
creant, who says his name is John Nc
Cam, learned of Mr.. Woodruff s absence,
and with a pal decided to ransack the
house and, if caught. terrorize the women.
He probably entered BY the kitchen door,
leaving his pal below while he slipped up
stairs and dung all of Harry Woodruff 5
extensive wardrobe out of the window, the
wind scattering his dress suit about the
Wright park and G street. Harry Wood
ruff, aged 20, leaving the supper table,
went to his room to dress and discovered
the thief in his mothers room and
grappied with him. The intruder jump ped
through window with Mr. Woodruff
cilnging to his coat tails. They shrugged
desperately. and C. W. Seymour, a neigh
Dor who was summoned by Miss Wood
ruff, found the burglar Juggling Mr.. Wood
ruiz about by the hair, but the young man
would not release his hold. McCann was
locked in the bathroom and came near
escaping through small window before
the tardy patrol wagon arrived While all
hands were securing him, his accomplice
shouted from the first floor for the family
to look out, and then disappeared. Nc.
Cam was not armed.

The Resignation OF Judge
Armstrong.

Our readers have already learned
from a. card previously addressed
by him to the people of this Judi
cial Circuit, that our esteemed and
excellent Judge has been constra,n-
ed, by the pressure of long and con-
tlnued ill-health, to resign his seat
upon the bench, which he had go
long faithfully, honorably, and sue
cessfully filed, to the general sa'-
istaction OF the people OF our South
Branch Valley, without distinction
OF party, sect, or race. The loss of
a man like Judge Armstrong from
the public ser ice, especially IN an
office of such dignity, responsibility
and gravity, and which he had filled
with 80 much honor to himself and
acceptance by his constituency, is
sensibly felt throughout our Judi
cial Circuit. We have to add, that
duringAhc Judges indisposition, in
the past year and more, by choice
OF his legal brethren, in every coun-
ty Of the Circuit, Robert w Daley,
Junior, Esquire, our S;ate's Attor-
ney in Hampshire, has been dis
charging the duties o. Judge, to the
very general satisfaction OF the Bar
and people, and we are pleased to
learn, that an application for his
appointment to fill Judge A's, unex
pired term has been made to the
Governor, on the part of the Bar
and officers of Courts throughou
the Circuit, with great rdiality
and unalimity. We feel well as
sured, that the appointment of Mr..
Daley will afford very general sat-
isfaction, and hope that it will be
very promptly made by Governor
Fleming, beca1se we believe that it
will be in entire complianc with
the wishes of the people of the Cir
cult, without distinction of party.
This is the best augury for his fair
ness; impartial and fitness for the
office.

THE MORAL ASPECT OF PROTECTION.

THE MORAL ASPECT OF PROTECTION.
In the admirable little book of
A. Il. Perry, l.. l.. D., on the sub
ject of Political Economy, we find
paragrah which commends itself
to the sober attention of all lovers
of the pure and good in govern
ment. 1t is transcribed in full
without comment.
"The effect on morals to loosen
them When citizens see that their
government is a respector of per-
sons, that rich and otherwise in
fluential men can get laws passed
for their individual behoof, and
that the cry of thousands weighs
little against the unjust claim OF
one, popular regard for government
declines, of course. Respect for
laws declines of course. The
smuggler never yet failed to ac-
company high protective duties,
and never will. The selfish in
former never fails to follow TIE
smuggler. The legislator loses
sight of the general good in the de.
sire to please few powerful con-
stituents, brides direct and indi-
rect have had much TO do with our
protective tariffs, the public con-
science is demoralized by the spec
tacle OF interest ruling in high
places. Large fortunes acquired
by favoriLism enthroned in law
provoke envy and i'll will. The
poor arc angered at, and ready to
destroy the rich. The rich in turn
contemn the unorgsnized though
plundered poor, and society is Sc
cretly disorganized and by the ears.
Ia consequence of a departure from
the paths OF impartial Justice.
With one or two exceptions, a pro
tective tariff has never been enact
cd in this country but IN the teeth
OF an unyielding and bitter oppo-
sitlon. The instincts of the masses
have been naturally enough against
all such legislation. !"
1t was piece Of such legislation
in 1882 that reused the ire OF South
Carolina, and led, through the &C
ton Of Mr.. Calhoun and others, to
the doctrine Of notification, and
became a handspring to the series
Of Misunderstanding and jeal-
ousies that eliminated in the late
civil war; in short, protective tar
ifs bred mischiefs and war in Eu.
rope for one hundred and fifty
years, and have given birth in this
country to more Of Generalization
and disintegration than any one
thing except slavery. If, then,
high duties lessen revenue, wound
exchanges, and loosen morals, is il
not time for an intelligent people
TO abandon them?
