Individual Tiberty-The Germ of National
Progress and Permanence.


Elsewhere in this issue Of The
Gazette Ambassador Bayard'a Edin-
burgh address is published in full.
While it is of course longer than any
ordinary newspaper article, il will
amply repay close and careful read
ing. 1t is not stump speech. Not.
withstanding all the clamor which Re-
publican newspapers made when the
brief cable reports of the speech came
to this country, the truth remains as
Every Evening stated on the day after
its delivery: Sin this interesting ad-
dress Mr.. Bayard was not discussing
American party politics with which
Scotch philosophers have little con.
Germ, but was giving his attention to
the great underlying principles of indi-
vidual liberty which are opposed alike
10 the deapotism of autocracy and to
that of State socialism.
In the highest and best sense Of the
word, it is Il political address, for it
tliscourses deep and important ques
ton of public policy. In our day OF
great material advancement and of tho
development Of organizations in bust
ness and in every other direction, it is
well for US TO bring back our thoughts
to the individual and his personal lib
erty, whence all Of our advancement
has been evolved. 1t is well for us tc

The South Carolina Constitutional
convention is trying to do something
effective to stop lynching in the State.
The new constitution will provide that
the county in which a lynching occurs
shall forfeit s., 600 TO the State, and
shall recover like amount from the
lynchers if 1T can. This seems on the
face OF il to be a very light way of pun.
ishing Judge Lynch. Two thousand
dollars is small license TO pay for
permission to hang a man or two with
out duo process of law. But adequate
punishment of lynchers means no pun
ishment at all, since public opinion
prevents their conviction. A fine of
S. 600 on the county treasury will,
however, bring money charge to
every tax payers pocket. A nerve runs
directly from the pocket to the con.
science. This plan of timing the treas
ury for every lynching which occurs in
the county is shrewdly conceived. II

protection Run Mad.

Evidently the Republicans are get.
ting ready to give us another illus
tration of protection run mad. They
talk RS If tariff duties have a mini
mum below which it is ruinous to put
thems but no maximum, no limit
which 1t can do any harm to exceed.
We used to hear about sufficient pro-
lection to make up the difference be-
tween American and foreign wages. T"
They have gone quite beyond such
talk. II would sound very tame now.
Tho present cry is for protection for
protection's sake, the higher the bot.
ter.
Here is a specimen utterance from "a
Republican paper:
When customs duties are reduced to
point where the receipts are INSULT
cient to provide revenue trouble fol-
lows. When tariff schedules are kept
at point where revenue is secured
and surplus provided the country
does not suffer.
We assure our readers that this
assertion was not intended as bur
lesque or joke, as ono might naturally
infer 1t was seriously meant and is
affair reflex Of the state of mind of
Republican politicians. just think of
| ii. Trouble follows when tariff taxes
are reduced, but the country does not
suffer, no matter how high tariff taxes
are piled up, so long as a revenue is
secured and surplus provided.
This is going back TO the theory OF
good government which prevailed in
Franco under the Bourbons before the
Revolution; l. O., TO collect plenty
Of taxes and to have surplus for the
extravagant expenses of the rulers.
The country does not suffer. OF course
not The higher the taxes they have
to pay the better oft tho taxpayers
should consider themselves.
This theory simpliiles the work oil
statesmen and makes administration
easy. All that statesman has to dc
to demonstrate his wisdom ard patriot
ism is TO set the taxes higher and ever
higher; and the only secret in ad-
ministration is TO make the money fly
80 as to make room in the treasury
vaults for the other money which the
high taxes are ever shoveling in.
Economy, away with it! Never re-
duce expenses for fear somebody may
want to reduce tariff taxes. Taxes are
a blessing and the country can never
suffer from tariff tinkering when the

If the Herald prove to be right,
The Gazette will have no tears TO
shed. 1t appreciates to the full the
dignity, courage, wisdom and patriot
ism of President Cleveland. We have
not bad a better President since the
days Of George Washington, and we are
not likely to have a better one no mat
ter who may succeed him. 1t is Ger
tain, therefore, that no harm will be
done if the people rise up in 1896, as
they rose in 1892 to nominate and elect
Grover Cleveland to the Presidency
once more.
II the people, the great masses of the
pain, conservative people, finally make
up their minds that the welfare OF the
country will be promoted by continuing
the man they most fully trust in the
presidential chair. they will do their
work in spite of politicians, sweeping
aside partisan cries and the third term
bugaboo as giant brushes cobwebs
from his path; for the plain people
are Just as powerful now as they were
four years ago and arc able to repeat
in 1896 what they did in 1892.
Unless the people take this matter in
their own hands, however, there IS
nothing more improbable than the re-
nomination OF President Cleveland.
The politicians Of his own party will
not nominate him unless forced to it,
because good many of them do not
like him, and oven those who sincerely
admire and trust him have a politi.
clans fear of the effect of the third
term clamor. Mr.. Cleveland himself
can not be expected to turn a hand to
seek nomination for third term. So
if the nomination which the Herald
advocates come at all, it must be
brought by great wave of the popular
will. Who can foresee whether such a
wave will come?

Senator Sherman in an interview dis
cussing Secretary Carlisle's Chamber
Of Commerce speech says THE great
mistake was in the way the Democratic
administration had tempered with the
gold reserve. 1t should have issued
short bonds Of five years' duration,
which the people here would have
taken up quickly at , per cent, and
with this paid the expenses of the gov
eminent, instead of trenching on the
gold reserve" 1t is all very well to
say that the administration should
have issued the kind Of bonds sug-
pestcd by Senator Sherman, but it is
worth remembering that tho admins
traton had no legal authority to issue
any kind Of bond other than the kind
it did issue. Congress refused to give
additional authority. The administra-
ton has protected the gold reserve by
TIE only means which the law gives It
authority to use. Senator Sherman s
criticism turns the keen edge towarls
Congress instead Of against the Presi-
dent.

ECONOMY IL Bettef thun isNtraNugnnces
The Republican party is the party of
extravagant expenditure Of public
money. The late election reports have
encouraged the idea that its return to
power is inevitable, and Republican
aspirations arc accordingly voicing
themselves in the Republican news
papers. One and all they point towards
an enlarged expenditure, and to meet
increasing expenses their policy is to
pile up the taxes mountain high on the
people. Higher faxes, they say, must
BIO levied to meet the present deficiency
and to provide for this, that, and the
other thing which they propose to do
when they come again to power.
If there be not sufficient revenue to
meet the present expenses Of the gov
ernment, why would it not be Bcnsi-
ble thing for the incoming Congress TO
cut down the expense account? Reye-
nue. and expenses must be made to bal
ance, but that balance can be reached
by economy in expenses as readily as by
increase in revenue. Yet who has
heard whisper from Republican
sources that expenses should be re-
duced?
Our expenses exceed our income
Very well, common sense would sug
gest, cut down the expenses But no
Republican entertains such an eco
nomical notion as that. They arc Of one
mind that the thing to do is to pile up
taxes so as to increase revenue not only
to a point which will balance present
expenses but also high enough 10 per-
nit wider and fuller extravaganza.
When the Republicans last had con
troll of Congress they passed the Nc
hinlcy tariff ITO reduce revenue, as
its very title asserted, and yet at the
same time they increased expenses
enormously, 1t was tho "billion dol.
lar' Congress. So in love were The
Republicans with extravaganza that
they made their appropriations con.
tinuous, saddling the government with
huge expenses which could not DO cut
down, The same squandering spirit
appears to abide with them still.
The manifest duty of the incoming
Congress is 10 DO economical in its ap.
preparation bills, go as to reduce the
expenses Of the government. In this
way we can have surplus instead of 8
deficiency, without adding 10 tho bur,
dens of taxation. 1t is also policy
that can be pursued without unsettlinq
business BY foolish tariff tinkering.

We get much news from Cuba to in
cate that the insurgents there are en-
gagged in something very like bri-
gandage. Certainly destroying sugar
plantations is not legitimate, civilized
warfare, Civilized war is made against
armed enemies in the open field. 1t is
not waged against non .combatants, and
it does not engage in the ruthless
pillage and destruction of private
property. The distinction between war
and brigandage is recognized by all
civilized countries, hut it docs not
seem to be observed by the Cuban in.
surgents. They are laying waste, among
others, the sugar plantations owned by
citizens Of this country. That sort OF
thing is not likely to advance them in
the sympathy and good graces of
Americans. With a Cuban war for in
dependence our people have warm sym,
pathy; for brigandage in Cuba, no
matter what its pretended purpose,
they have only condemnation.
