SORROW FOR TIE DEATH OF COLONEL AUcH-
MUTY
The times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1890-1903, 1893-11-29
! HERE MUST BE NO DEMOCRATIC
PRO. LECTION.

The new tariff bill which the Ways
and Means Committee has framed seems
TO be constructed in the main upon
sound principles. The committee has
plainly sought to end the demoralizing
spectacle Of the great body OF the Ameri-
can people paying tribute TO a few petted,
privileged Americans, and whenever its
efforts have resulted in cutting up such
abuses it will have the thanks and
the support of the people at large. But
it is perfectly plain that the committee
has been far too lavish with the free
list" The free list" is an anomaly in
a just government that proposes to raise
its revenues by imposing its taxes equally
and ratably upon all its citizens as
far as possible. Works OF art, contrihu-
tons to religion. what pertains to the
public health, and other such things may
properly be exempted from taxation. But
If one business import is TO be taxed.
another should be also. The revenue should
be spread out over all business imports
in a way proportional to the value of
each. In this way all will contribute
ratsbly 10 the burdens of government.
and this is what every just government
aims at.
The reason which Mr.. Wilson gives for
putting coal and iron ore on the free
list contains every heresy involved in
the protectionist doctrine. 1t is protec-
ton pure and simple. lie says. "untax-
ed ores, coal, lumber wool, aud other
fibres must immensely stimulate produc-
ton in certain parts of our country"
In other words, he would put all of the
burdens Of the taxes on certain imported
articles and let other imported articles
come in free of burdens in order that
manufactures In some parts of the coun-
try may be stimulated. What is this but
protection OF those manufactures by law?
Under the Republican idea OF protection.
outside manufactures are shut out so
that domestic manufactures may prey
upon American citizens as they please.
Under the new Democratic idea of protec-
ton. ali the burdens of government are
placed upon a part OF the people in order
that another part who are exempted from
burdens may thrive and prosper. II this
IS not protection TO the favored manufac-
turers We do no know what protection
is.
With coal on the free list. all the man

What a boon those chocolate and hot
soda counters are 10 the shoppers. AS you
pass such place. you see CROWDS OF ladleS
surging i'm and out, and imagine there
must he something going on, but all you
see when you look in Is NUMBER Oh
ladies' slipping something from CHINA cups.
A number of ladies'. yes. But it would be
telling only half the story TO stop there.
For this motley gathering is the embodi-
ment Of the seasons styles in street cos
tunes. However, the interest In such
gathering IS chiefly spectacular, and
defy you to determine from an inspec-
ton Of them which particular style pre-
dominates.
To be sure, there are a great many
basques, but there are nearly as many
round waists-more il you count those
with the added friH around the waist.
There are some double skirts, but they nre
evenly balanced by the single ones. Black
and white costumes abound. but so do
plum color, brown. green, and inextrica-
bic mixtures Of all. There are fur trim
mings, and lace trimmings, jet and jew
eled passementeries. Choose any Of these
and you viii be in style. but don't expect
TO lead, for there IS no leader. a demo-
cratic spirit pervades and we must wait
for popular vote.
Instead OF being an objection this IS a
relief, for we grow weary Of styles which
we see on every woman we meet.
one Of the varieties which / saw as
passed is shown above. She carried
cape TO match her dress. This was
PLAIN tailor-made gown Of beige color,
stitched around the edges. The corsage
Tapped 10 one side, where it was fastened
with three large buttons. At the waist
was belt Of white cloth. which had a
pointed look from the way the sides OF
the corsage Tapped. Revers with points
al top and bottom were set just in front
Of the sleeves. The skirt was gored and
stitched around the bottom. Her bon
net was brown felt. edged with gold beads
and stuck with gold pins.
