The Greenville Camera Fiend.

A young man. who say he lives in
Greenvillle, has called at the office of"The

being the camera fiend. whose disgrace
full proceedings were reported in "The

who accompanied him., and who assumed
to represent the young ladies who were
the camera, fiend's victims, refused TO
tell their names. They alleged that the
pictures had been taken with the consent
of the young ladies'. If this statement
be true. the young man who called at
this office was not the person alluded
to in the article of the Both, nor were the
Young ladies whom his companion as
sumed to represent the young ladies
therein referred to. The young man, for
some reason best known to himself, is
borrowing somebody else's opprobrium.

titiously photographed some young ladies.

consent and to their infinite modification.
1t is to be hoped hat if he or any other
similar rufian attempts to repeat the Of

of his life, as 1.-The News" has already
suggested.

We are having a beautiful Illustration
unto us in the strike of fifty thousand
garment workers in New York City.
There is no higher duty On anything
than on manufactured mems clothing. 1t
is now and always has been practically
prohibitive. Even the EXTREMIST dudes
of the moneyed class %patronize American
tailors because it is too expensive to inn
port the creations of Poole, and poor
men can more easily afford to wear
headlight diamonds than London made
clothes.
Now, according to the Reed-McKinley
theory of protection, the operatives in
this trade ought to be earning the high
est wages of any in the country. Their
product being absolutely N completely
protected from the competition of Euro
pean "pauper'' labor, they should be in
a position to demand almost any ompen-
satfon they chose from their employees.
If they cannot, there is nothing in pro-
lection. It is a fraud, a de1usion and a
snare.
But what do we find to be the case!
We find these highly protected people,
the most down-trodden, ill-used. toll
crushed, starving people in the whole
United States. In good times, they were
expected to make ten mems coats for So.
Just think of it, 80 cents for making a
coat. But since the hard times set in,
this task has been increased and in
creased, until now Brooklyn garment
cutters are expected to make thirty
four coats for So; about 9 cents a coat
1t takes more than three days to ac-
complish this task, in which whole fam
lilies. father, mother n children, unite
for fourteen hours a day, often, and so
we find the daily earnings of such FAM
lilies reduced to 80 cents a day. or $40
a week.
You may ask, how is free trade to
remedy this. We reply it may not rem
sdy it. But if the trade of clothing max
ing can only be carried on in this coun-
try at such rates, why, let us drive it out,
and get our people to work at something
that affords a decent living. At least,
our people will get cheap clothing by the
importation of foreign goods, and this
certainly has not resulted in anything
like due proportion from the reduction in
the makers wages. The coat for the
making of which 9 cents is paid viii
still sell in the retail store for S., at least,
though the cloth canno exceed a couple
of dollars. All the rest of the retail
price is divided among various classes
of capitalists who go to Washington
clamoring for protection in the interest
of the -workingman, and who put UP
their money to swell Republican cam
paign funds.

 DEVOTION to duty is evidence of a strong and noble character.
