Press Opinions.

Columbus Ga. Enquirer Sun: The
conduct of the sugar planters of Lou
isiana has settled the question of free
sugar. The next Congress will make
them regret that they spoke so loud.
Shreveport Times: There is too
much tendency to paternalism, lean
ing on the government for benefits
under the guise of protection and
abandoning that independence that
gives to the American citizen his
proud manhood.
New York Herald: It is noteworthy
that in the State which has been the
stronghold of Mckinley and McKin-
ley protectionism no Democratic
protest is heard against free wool,
the corner stone of the Wilson tariff.
Democratic wool growers in Ohio
are evidently not going to follow the
example of the Louisiana sugar plant
ers in going over to the Republican
camp.
Referring to the secession of five
hundred sugar planters from the
Louisiana Democracy into the Repub-
lican ranks the New York Herald
says: This secession shows that if
the wholesale plundering of the peo-
pie under the guise of protecting"
American industries is ever to cease,
the whole system of tariff-taxation
must 60. Congress never had any
more right to bounty sugar planters
than to bounty all the millions who
raise corn, potatoes, tobacco, wheat
and watermelons.
New Orleans States: It would be
well for the Populists, who are clam
oring for the Government ownership
of railroads, to read carefully the re-
port of the Interstate Railway Com.
mission on that particular point. The
report shows that there are twenty
one countries that own their railways.
but in spite of the fact railroad freight
and passenger rates in the United
States are lower than in any other
country in the world. In England
the average passenger rate is 4 cents
mile, while in this country it is
only 2 cents or just one half, and
therefore the Populists, if they. are
wise enough to know what is good
for themselves, will promptly aban.
don their demand for the Govern.
ment ownership of railroads. If the
Government were to adopt their
views an immense army of employees
would be created which would have
to be supported by money taken out
OF the pockets of she people.

There has been a change of senti-
ment in many sections of the country
in regard to the work of the last
Congress since the adjournment of
that body. Republicans and enemies
ofthe Administration employed them
selves during the sitting of Congress
in the effort to convince the people
that nothing had been accomplished.
It is a source of qualification, how
ever, that within the past few weeks
the falseimpressions created by those
sntagonistic to the Administration
have been largely eradicated, and the
people are beginning to realize that
the laws enacted by the last Congress
are good and wholesome. It is gen.
orally conceded that the Democratic
majority in the next House will be
reduced, but SO long as We retain a
majority this will be no disadvantage
to the party.

A Visionary Scheme.

The Populists still demand gov
ernment ownership of the railroads.
Not only SO but they include the
telegraphs, telephones. express COM
panies aud latterly the coal fields of
the country. How is the government
to acquire possession of all these
properties? Either by purchase or
confiscation, which means robbery.
The latter method would not be toll
Grated for a moment, while the plan
ofgovernment purchase is thoroughly
impracticable. The Populist who
advocates the expenditure of billions
of dollars for the properties referred
to proceeds on the theory that our
government is an institution of un-
bounded wealth and unlimited re-
sources. Now the fact is that the
government has no money, except
what it has taken from the people by
taxation, and it lives from year to
year by money exacted from the peo-
pie. If it issues money to meet ex-
penses, or to make purchases, that
money must be redeemed by the
people. If the United States should
buy all the railroads, telegraphs, ex-
press properties and coal fields, and
should pay five billions or ten billion
dollars for them, it would constitute
debt which the people would have
to pay at last. There is no other
conclusion. But the government
our government-was not instituted
for such purposes. This is a repre-,
sentative and delegated government
whose functions are clearly defined
The objects sought to be secured by
our government are the protection oi
the people, the security of life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness.
How are these objects, the pro
lection Of life and liberty and the
pursuit of happiness, subserved by
the government engaging in the rail
road, express and coal business
Government ownership of these great
enterprises would not only entail {
debt SO vast that it is difficult tt
grasp the magnitude of it, but i
would place the government in direc
antagonism to the citizen-deprivine
him of the right to engege in legiti
mate business which would add tx
his profits and his happiness. It wa
never contemplated by the father
who founded our government that i
should be used as an instrument fo
the destruction of the business of tn,
| citizen.

According to the official report for
the year ending June 80, 1894, the

ed to 1926, 6,156,694, as against S271,-

increase of over S24, 100000 is di-
