THOSE NORFOLK GAMES


The management of the Richmond team
are very much exercised over the reports
which have obtained, that the recent
Richmond Norfolk games were thrown to
Norfolk by the Capital City boys. and
denounce the whole story as false. They
assert positively that in the first game
the Richmonds stood almost an equal
show with Norfolk for winning the PEN
nant. and would certainly not have
thrown away this chance. There were,
they claim several reasons why Klch-
mond could not win. In the first place
they were weak on third base. Roussey
being incapacitated, and they tried Fos-
ter. Gittinger. and Keenan, without sue
cess The batting of the Norfolks was
terrific In the first game, when they nit
Bailey with success for the first time
this season. The second game was lost
on account Of the brilliant support given
pitcher Hunt, OF Norfolk. He was hit
very hard at times, hut some very quick
fielding on the part OF the Norfolks kept
the runs down. The third game was lost
on errors. Nevins pitched well, but errors
at critical moments lost II for Richmond.
POINTS ABOUT OUR PLAYERS.
Wells and Gittnger left for the South

In Pensacola, Fla, and the latter 10
Mobile where he Is to be married at
an early date.

will play In the exhibition games here
Monday and the latter part OF the week.
II is sincerely hoped that Wells VIII re-
turh 10 Richmond next season. With
team composed of such men as Wells,
Gittinger. and Gilman, Richmond would
have n club worthy of her name.
II IS rather premature to state just
what players on the present club will be
retained next year. though II is under

several OF the best members Of teams in

Republicanism has been no greater
success in Ohio than in the nation A
bill is now pending before the lcgisla-
ture of that state providing for the
issue of s600.0 in certificates of in
dcbtcdness to keep the state from GO
ing into bankruptcy. The chairman Of
the finance committee Of the house. in
introducing the bill, admitted that the
state had been for years spending more
than she received and that her income
for the current year was virtually
mortyaged To the extent OF S50U. 900.
An effort has been made to- shift some
portion of the responsibility for this
condition OF things on the late demo
cratic administration; but the fact is
undisputcd that $3.50, 900 Of the $780, 900
deficiency was incurred by the last re-
publican legislature. Considering the
Mckinley boom it is no wonder that
the Ohio cpublicans want TO fix the
matter up in soma way; but they are

Protection.

Gov. McKinley's Minneapolis speech
was "A labored attempt 10 prove that II
ten or twenty per cent tariff In the
early part Of the century was good
thing for the country. one that ranges
from sixty to eighty per cent Is abso-
lutcly necessary for our existence to-
day. Tariffs which upon an average
did not impose duties of more than q
quarter of the percentage levied under
the Mckinley bill were held up as fine
examples Of protectionism. while the
Wilson bill, a comparatively high pro-
tective measure. was denounced as FREQ
trade.
II is by such claptrap as this that
Mckinley hopes to win the presidency
in 1895 The prcposterous argument is
paraded that import duties should in
crease with the advance OF civilization
until they become nearly II not entirely
prohibitory. Once give "a man the
right 10 rob his neighbors Of five per
cent OF their earnings and it is only a
question of time when he will take
everything, except a bare and rniser.
able living for his victims That has
been the history Of all legalized rob.
berry and it is the record of protective
tariffs in the United States.
| The old pretext for protection" was
that infant or feeble industries ought
to be encouraged by the government
Mckinley's idea is that all American
industries are perpetual infants and
can only exist by the constant con
tributions of consumers So impotent
and helpless are American manufactur'
ers, according to republican opinion,
that. even after thirty years Of the
pap-feeding policy. the mere promise
by democrats.to cut of part Of Their
unearned rations precipitates q panic.
That is protectionist doctrine in 1884
as preached by its chief opponents and
proclaimed as patriotic and "Ameri
can"
The next republican candidate fol
the presidency thus explains his belize
on the question OF taxation: I'VE mus
either tax ourselves and our property
our lands md our investments, or WI
must tax the products Of other nations
seeking market here"
The idea sought 20 be conveyed here
to his ignorant and partisan hearers
was tina, imported goods belonged Il
foreigners and that taxes levied OF
them would be paid by people il
Europe. AS goods only come here
when bought by some one in this coun
try. all tariff taxes fall, not upon for
e;gners. but first upon our own impor
ters and by them transferred TO Amer
lean consumers.
Mckinlcy's gross ignorance of rudi
mentary political economy ought Z
consign him to political oblivion, if hi
at;orneyship for the great American
tariff thieves has not brought him suci
a fate already. - Chicago Herald.
