Says the Nashville TENN American
(dem.) Of November q, one Of the
leading democratic papers Of the south
in commenting on the possible course
of the party on the Tariff question.
We beg leave to assure Mr.. DePew, on
behalf of the democratic party. that
his opinion is not worth tinker's ding.
Democracy has come into power upon
a plain and most aggressive platfoi m.
That platform declares that the pro.
tectiye tariff Of the republican party is
a fraud and a robbery. Upon that
platform Mr.. Cleveland planted him
self and was elected, and every pro-
vision will be carried out. The party
proposes to deface the old thing so that
its own father, the present minority
governor of Ohio, will not know it.
Democracy will shiver it from top to
bottom till its rotten and bloated old
carcass will sift water like a sieve. 1t
will shake it till plutocracy takes on
the pallOr Of the grave and the mo.
nopol,'s death rattle will be heard
around the world.
The Mobile (Ala. Register, another
prominent paper of the south says the
party is pledged to the repeal OF the
Mckinley tariff law. There is no mis-.
taking the language Of the platform;
there was no clouding Of the issue
during the campaign; there will be no
faltering with The question when thu
fifty-third congress assemblies.
The people have decided in favor of
the democratic national platform which
calls for reIeal of the ten per cent.
prOhibitive tax on state banks. That
repeal will take place as sure as Cleve-
land is inaugurated and a democratic
congress meets in December, 1893. 1t
cannot be said that the people did not
understand the issue. The
states are able to attend to the bank
ing business.

In the campaign just closed the Pro
lection Republicans told the truth
about the Mckinley tariff. They said
that it greatly enlarged our free list;
that it raised some duties, left ONE as
they were and reduced others, giving
ms a lower rate of duty on the average
of our total imports than any tariff for
the past forty years. They said that
our home trade and our foreign COM
MERGE were greater under it than ever
before: that more wage-workers were
employ ed, at wages higher in proper
tion to cost of living than ever; that
the great farming interest was cared
for and helped by it as never before;
that greater capital was more actively
employed than EVER; that the total of
savings bank deposits. showing the
distribution of wealth among the
people were greater than ever; that
''trusts" and combines" existed in
Free Trade England rs well as at
home, were controlled with us by Dem

Tariff legislation had no effect on their
rise and methods. They said that a
Tariff WAS not a tax added to the cost
of articles imported or home made,
but that home competition checkmated
foreign monopoly and 30 gave us reason
able prices, which home employ ment
enabled US to pay far easier than the
English people under their Free Trade
can pay their prices. They said that

Craft RsesntIy Brought 70 wsshisRtsa.
Two hremen who were on the steam
Yukon river, says the Seattle Post-In-
telligencer, brought back two novel
Aleut canoes. The boats were made Of
rawhide, supported by horizontal ribs.

the center, large enough for . mans
body 90 that he can sit down. A Dap Of
rawhide surrounds the hole, and when
tho occupant plants himself in the bot
tom Of the craft he draws tho Dap up,
fastening it tightly around his body un-
der the arms. This makes tho boat
practically watertight, and he carr pad
die along in the toughest kind Of
weather without danger of drowning.
If his craft rolls over all he has to do is
to paw tho water until he gets his head
to the surface. and the boat. having
stationary ballast, immediately rights
itself.
Some Of them are made with two
holes to accommodate two passengers.
The two brought down are the single
pattern. They are about fourteen feet
long, thirty inches across, and of q like
depth. They are very light and can
easily be carried about. The owners
are going to keep them 1t Lake Wash

from Alaska in one some years ago and
had been upset on numerous occasions
on the way, but they never suffered
more serious injury than getting their
shoulders wet.

But his most cogent appeal. accord

to its confirmation In the Epistle to the

THE instalment Of Lord Dufferin in the
English Ambassadorship at Paris. which was
made vacant by the death of Lord Lytton. is
the browning scene in the long diplomatic
career of that distinguished nobleman. The
first great official post held by him was the
Governor Generalship of Canada, in which he
won the highest reputation for tact and as
tuteness. He then became Governor General
of India, the most valuable of the English
dependencies. subsequently, he was Ambas-
sador at st. Petersburg; then at Constantine
pie: still later at Rome and finally at Cairo.
Wherever there was diplomatic work of ex-
traordinary delicacy to be performed, the
English Government, whether Liberal or Con-
servatve. was quick to send him. The Am
bassadorship at Paris is the blue ribbon Of
English diplomatic life. Able and accom-
plished as have been the men who have filed
it. it is not going too far to predict that the
peculiar talents and the varied experience of
Duffern will make his tenure of the Office one
of the most memorable in the diplomatic his
tory Of England.

The March report of the Department of
Agriculture will be found unusually inter
estine by all who are engaged in the pro-
duction or sale of cotton. According to the
statistics which have been gathered by the
department. the worlds crop in 1890 exceeded
by 100000 bales the consumption of the
world. But the crop of 1891 was also in ex-
cess of the worlds consumption by about
100000 bales. In two years therefore. we
find an accumulation of more than two million
bales in excess of the normal requirements.
SO far as the south is concerned, there is but
one course to pursue. 1t would be the very
height of folly for that section to plant the
same area in cotton in 1892 that it did in 1890
and 1891. To do so would be to invite still
lover prices than those which have been pre-
vailing which would be merely TO bring about
9 truly deplorable condition of affairs in the
cotton States.
