COLUMBIA. S. c., Jan. H.-Special.-
There is trouble brewing in Charleston
over the dispensary law. The situation
is summed up in the following statement
made by Governor Tillman tonight:
81 received telegram to-day from
Chief Constable Gaillard informing me
that he was about to order rifles for
the constabes in Charleston, in addition
to the side-arms they already carried
Galllard said he did this because of the
evident feeling against the constables in
that city. There is every evidence OF a
conspiracy against the law and the con-
stables among the Italians and whisky
toughs under the employ Of the Whisky
Dealers Association. and 1 propose to
see II such lawlessness can't be stopped.

THE TARIFF BILL SURE TO PASS.
The Disconnected Democrats and Republi-

WASHINGTON. D. c.. Jan. 1.-THE

"a negative vote on the passage of the

commit is no longer likely TO prove for

motion TO Strike out the enactng clause
can hardly prevail, as it is not believed
that sufficient discOntented Democrats can
be found to vote TO kin the Wilson bill

discontented Democrats who will join with
the Republicans in the motion to kin the
bill by striking out the enacting clause,
is thirty-five, and this With the full Re
publican vote of 126 is considerably short

THE LORDS SHREWD MOVE
DECIDE TO ACCEPT TWO LIBERAL
Hills WITH AMENDMENTS.
Thus They VIII Avoid Conflict With The
House Of Cominons-Er gland to Depose.
the Present Khedivc-Foreign Affairs.



LONDON, Jan. N.-The Unionist peers
at their conference yesterday. decided to
accept the Parish Councils bill with
amendments ss to ecclesiastical charities,
the poor law and land allotments, and
the Employers Liability bill with slight
alterations of the contractlng-out clause.
This action was tantamount to accepting
a compromise on both measures. The re-
suit is a disappointment to the Liberals
who hoped the peers would so mutilate
the bills that the odium OF defeating both
might be thrown upon them.
The conference was private. consequent
ly only reports arranged for the ConserVa-
tive press were published. These reports
were vague enough to afford the Liberal
organs some ray OF hope that the House
OF Lords may yet fight the bills, but IN
ministerial circles no doubt remains that

his matches and lit one. He caught
only a glimpse of the white face
before the blaze was gone, but that
was enough.
"Oh, God" he cried, "help me,
and grant that she is not dead"
He raised the senseless girl in
his strong arms, his valise lying
unheeded where it fell, and pressed
on. Could he reach that light in
time? Every thought was prayer
for help in this his time of great
need. He struggled on, now and
again stumbling to his knees, for
Lizzie was a dead weight in his
arms.
"Had it been anyone else," he
said afterward, II think my strength
must have failed"
Mrs. Barton, now thoroughly
alarmed about her daughter, had
started out with lantern to look
for her; she met Will few rods
from the door, and together they
bore the unconscious girl into the
warm room. How they worked to
save her precious lifel And when
their efforts were at last successful,
and she opened her eyes to see
Will bending over her. All, it's
no use for me to try to describe the
scene!
The next morning, when all had
been told, and the mystery of the
lost letters wondered over, Mr.. Bar
ton hobbled to his desk, and unlock
ing a drawer, took therefrom a
small package. Giving it to Liz
zie, he said:
There, child, l won't have that
on my mind any longer. l sup
pose you'll always hate your old
father, but l thought l was doing
it for your own good"
"Why, father My letters-and
and Will'sl Oh, how could you?
How could you?"
"Hush, Lizziel" said Will Tt's
all right now, and we won't hold
any hard feeling. viii you give
her to me now, sir"
WELL" broke in Mrs. Barton, II
think she belongs to you if she
does to anybody. for you have saved
her life twice, first from fire and
now from freezing"
Mr.. Barton could not speak. He
held out his hand, which Will
grasped heartily, while Lizzie threw
her arms around his neck.

both free trade and protection which in
some way the Repu blican party had
committed itself to. Now the only tar
III doctrine to which the Republican par
ty, has committed itself is the doctrine
OF protection. They have never accept
ed as one of their cardinal principles
the tariff schedules of the Mckinley
law. They have defended that law as
the best application that it was possible
to make in view of all the circumstances
surrounding the Republican Congress of
1890, but they have never claimed that il
was absolutely perfect, or that it should
forever remain Oh the statute books I'M
altered and unalterable. They have
never said that it was the best measure
that could possibly be made. What
they have contended is that it was
far bett err law than the Democrats
would make, and inasmuch as the social
leader of the Democratic party has de-
clared that the law the Democrats did
make was tainted with perfdy and dis
honor, inasmuch as distinguished lead
er of the New York Democracy has pro.
Kinley bill, inasmuch as the chairman
of the ways and means COMMITTEES de-
clared that they were forced to accept it
because the Sugar Trust had the country
by the throat, and inasmuch as all the
Democratic leadership and little-have
chorussed that the bill was the work of
traitors in the camp, it looks very much
as if this Republican claim had been
proved out of the mouths of the Demo-
Gratis themselves.
When the Republicans are called upon
to revise the tariff again, as in all
probability they will be in 1887, they
will apply the doctrine OF protection in
way best suited to the conditions that
may then prevail. They will revise it
in a way to protect home industry and
to secure to our own people their nome
market. TO that, undoubtedly, the
party will pledge itself. But to COM
nit itself to particular schedules three
or four years in advance, it will not do.
Our Democratic friends may rest assured
of that.
The Portland daily press., 1894-10-20

The Ohio militia seems to be fully JUS
titled in firing on the mob which UNDER
took to seize the negro prisoner, and the
pub bile indignation which. according to
the dispatches, has been aroused against
them, appears to be entirely unjust.
The mob was endeavoring to commit an
act clearly illegal, and for which there
was no valid excuse. Justice is efficiently
administered in Ohio, and there is no
excuse whatever for attempting to take it's
administration out of the hands of the
courts where the, law has placed it. The
militia did not use their weapons until
the mob had had fair warning but it
persisted it and the choice was forced
upon the militia of cowardly surrender
or vigorous resistance.
The Portland daily press., 1894-10-20
REPUBLICANS AND THE TARIFF

Our esteemed Democratic conte mpora-
ries got up good deal of steam yester-
day over some remarks that MIR. Reed
was reported to have made at Ann Ar
Dor. 1t turns out that Mr.. Reed did not
say the things attributed to him, or
anything like them. However, the false
hood served the purpose OF showing
how ready the Democrats are to make q
mountain out of q molehill, and how
eager they are to catch at nything to
turn public attention away from their
own forlorn condition. One would have
inferred yesterday from the editorials in
Democratic newspapers that Mr.. Reed
had repudiated some of the fundamental
doctrines of the Republican party, and
Populist, or something else that is bad.
And all this noise was made out of the
allegation that he had said that the res
toration of the Republican party to pow
er did not necessarily mean the re-en-
actment of the Mckinley law and that
many changes might be made in that
measure with advantage under the new
conditions that had arisen and might
arise before 1897. The individual who
sent the report of the "faken interview
got SO excited over it that he declared
that it had caused considerable COM
ment because of it's being at variance
in many particulars with the edicts of
the party. Now even had Mr.. Reed used
the language attributed to him there
would have been no ground for interpre.
ting it as Reputation of the Mckinley
law. Tariff laws are to a large extent
the creation of circumstances and must
always be. A tariff law which is the
best possible, at one time and under
certain conditions, may be unsuitable at
another time and under other condi-
tions. No party would be likely to COM
NIT itself three or four years in advance
to the details of tariff measure. The
most party can undertake to do is to
declare the principle upon which it's tar
iff legislation Will be based-whether of
protection or free trade-and the Dem o.
cratic party has just found it impossible
to live up to them even, after solem-
My declaring In favor of a tariff for rev.
enue only it passed a measure spattered
al over with the policy Of protection
which it rspudiated and spat upon in the
national convention. If the Mckinley
law mad been an absolutely perfect
measure when it was passed in 1890 it
would by no means follow that it would
be a perfect measure six or seven years
i
SO much on McKinleyism that they seem
to have come to believe that it is some
sort Of tariff doctrine distinct fir ON
