he had been one Of the most liberal givers to

was married forty.eeven years ago By Bishop

All the older residents Of the ward knew

They are about tho worst enemies he has

The Home Rule Bill Closure.

After debate which lasted almost the
whole of Thursday night. the House OF
Commons on Friday evening passed Mr.
GLApsroNE's resolution that tho Homo
Rule bill shall be reported by July 81. and.
to that end. shall be closured In four sec
lions. to each of which about weeks dis
cussion will be allotted. This step on the
part of the Prime Minister will put an end
to the obstructive tactics on which the
Unionists have relied to excite impatience
and characterization. and. eventually. dis
ruption In the Gladstonian and National
LIST ranks. Had not the closure been ap-
piled. the consideration OF the bill in COM
mittee might have been protracted for q
year to come. as no fewer than thousand
amendments had already been proposed by
members Of the Opposition.
In the vehement resistance which Mr..
BALFoUR and Mr. CHAMBERLAIN offered on
Thursday evening to the application OF the
closure. they laid most stress upon the fact
that the home rule measure contemplates
trenchant change In the British Constitu-
ton. and ought, therefore. to be subjected
TO the most persistent scrutiny and the
most vlgilant revision. The plea was plaus-
tble and might have been successful had
the innumerable amendments emanating
from the Unionists been presented In good
faith. But 1t ls notorious. for the fact has
been repeatedly acknowledged in debate
that what the Unionists are soaking is not
emendation. but delay. They have ad-
mitted that. II every one of the amend
ments ostensibly aiming to improve the
bill were accepted by the Government. they
would still urge the House OF Lords to
throw out the measure. and would de-
nounce 1t on the ensuing appeal
to the electors. 1t is not. there
fore. a conscientious. but q dishonest OBJ
struction against which Mr.. GLADSTONE
has set his face. 1t Is not high-minded
and resolute attempt to secure. by discus
sion aud compromise. the least extensive
and least hurtful modification OF the exist
Ing Constitution; 1t is mere electioneering
trick devised and forced upon the Unionists
by Mr.. JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN. after Lord
SALISBURY had advised a more straightfor-
ward and honorable course. In difference
to the latters counsel. the Conservatives
had originally determined to offer no
amendments to the Home Rule bill. but to

Mr.. Atlkinson's Plan Not Worth Con.
sidering.


Mr.. EDWARD ATK1NsoN's plan Of tariff re-
form ia Ingenious and elaborate. 1t is
worth considering. II 1t meets the first re-
Quirement; II 1t is Democratic.
The merest glance at Mr.. Afternoons
propositions show that they can be consid-
cred only to be dismissed.
At the very beginning Of his essay he lays
down the principle that in dealing with the
reduction Of the tariff regard must be
given, first. to making such adequate addi-
lions to the free list as may do a,cdy tcith
he present disadvantages under Which our
doMestic manufactures and mechanic arts
have 30 long suffered IN the relatire cost Of
heir materials"
That Is to say. Mr.. ATKINsoN's first care
would DO to arrange the tariff with refer
ence to the advantage OF American manu-
features and mechanic arts.
As measure OF protection. as tariff legis-
lation designed to protect. encourage. stim-
ulate. and benefit domestic industry. that
would be q legitimate object to keep in
view. But it Is not in accord with the DEM
ocratic doctrine of 1893. 1t Is oppugnant to
fundamental principle Of the Democratic
party. namely. that the Federal Govern
ment has no constitutional power to impose
or collect tariff duties. except for the pur.
pose of revenue only.
It will not do to reply to this that Mr..
ATKINSON proposes to foster American man.
ufactures and mechanic arts. not by i'm
posing and collecting new duties. but by
removing duties already imposed and now
collected. That is bubble. If the object
IL protection rather than revenue. it makes
no difference whether domestic industry Is
promoted and protected by imposing GUS
toms taxes to keep out foreign competition,
or by removing taxes that yield revenue
but hamper the American manufacturer
The two things are precisely the same from
the point Of view Of constitutional con-
structon; and from the point Of view OF the
Democratic platform they are equally un-
constitutional. II the Supreme Court were
considering the question Of the constitu-
tionality Of tariff which was not tariff
for revenue only. it would brush aside any
attempt to establish a distinction between
Mr.. McKNLEY's plan for promoting domes-
tic industry by putting certain taxes On,
and Mr.. ATKNsoN's plan to foster Amer
lean industry by taking certain taxes of
and thus sacrificing revenue.
This point need not be argued. 1t will be
perfectly clear to every mind capable of
grasping the distinction between protec-
tive tariff and purely revenue tariff.
Mr.. ATKINsoN's scheme Of protection by
extending the free list In certain directions,
does NOT meet the first requirement. 1t
would not give the country tariff for
revenue only. 1t Is not Democratic.

he had gone to Mr.. CLEVELAND and asked
to have the Post Office at Half Way shut up,
the request would not have been granted.
Very possibly no would have been asked to
shut up himself. What occurred must have
been this: He went to the Post ONCE De-

the offices where the Hon. DINK BoTTs re-
ceived the enormous mail that comes to
him from statesmen soliciting his opinions.
from Office seekers asking his recommended

Office seekers. And now the Half Way house
Is shut up and Moon is eclipsed, and he and

comparative mythologists may try to

but to students OF Georgia nomenclature

The Halt Way house should be reopened
at once. 1t may be true that the Hon. DINK
Boris has two or three Post Offices laden
with his mail. but the people Of the United

of the Hon. DINK Boris at such ingratitude!
