EILins, Southern Wan.

From Charleston News and Courier Oem)
And the Southern man. the Golf, of
West Virginia" on whom the party de-
ponds for the success of this hopeful
scheme Is the same Goff who, as a judge
of the United States court, annulled the
registra ton laws of South Carolina two
weeks ago because they made it difficult"
for an ignorant negro to vote in a state
election. If Mr. Elkins really desired to
put a spade-point on his joke in practical
politics" why did he not nominate such
southern man" as Chandler, of New
Hampshire" or Lodge, of Massachu-
sets" It would have been almost as
funny" a suggestion and would have had
the merit, at least, of appearing to be in
tended seriously. which always helps a
truly humorous effort

The antics of the so-called republican
government of Hawaii are in the line of
a repetition of those of the carpetbag gov
ernments which got possession Of the
southern states under the reconstruction
laws. The carpetbag crowd was COM
posed of the same class of men as those
now in control in Hawaii. The carpetbag-
gers of the SOUTH however, had the adj
vantage of their brethren of these later
days, in that they had the United States
government al their beck and call. In
der the pretense of giving the southern
states republican form of government
they disfranchsed the leaders of the peo-
Pile and a few hundred of them con-
trolled the destinies of all the states of
the ex-confederacy. They used the ne
groes TO pull their political chestnuts out
of the fire. and when they had robbed
the people of what little was left after
the war, they retired to their homes. And
many of their families are this day living
upon their ill-gotten gains. The carpetbag-
gers of the south pretended to be the
friends of the colored man, and apparently
wanted a black government. The carpet
baggers of Hawaii found a black govern
ment, and upset it, for the same ends
that the white governments in the south
ern states were upset; namely, for their
own profit.

nc Law Uncon.tItutIonaI.

The decision Of the supreme court de-
claring the income tax law unconstitu-
tionaI. a synopsis Of which is published
in our dispatches to-day. viii give very
general satisfaction. The law was one
Of the mistakes OF the last congress. It
was enacted against the advice OF many
Of the wisest men in the Democratic party
and in the face Of the protest OF very
large portion Of the most intelligent por-
ton Of The people It was a concession
10 the populistic sentiment which was
strong In many sections OF the country
a sentiment that was the outgrowth OF
the prevailing hard times. We are salts
fed that no such law would have been
enacted had congressman followed their
judgments instead Of endeavoring to
please a class OF voters that they thought
might be helpful in keeping them in con
gress.
The purpose was to put a special bur
den upon those who have wealth. The
tax therefore was tax upon those who
are frugal, industrious and enterprising,
because # the law had been pronounced
constitutional the great bulk of the tax
would have been paid by those who have
earned their wealth or whose incomes
are the result Of Intellectual capacity and
industry. Those who are rich by inherit
ance would also have paid the tax, but
the amount they would have paid would
have been small in comparison with that
which would have been paid by those
whose fortunes and incomes are the re-
suits Of their own efforts.
II the law had been allowed 10 stand
as it was AFTER incomes from rents and
state and municipal bonds had been
stricken out great injustice would have
been done. because a large percentage
Of the richest men would have escaped
| the tax. while thousands of only fairly
well-to-do people would have had TO pay IL.
The decision will Of course be condemned
| by some. but those who will condemn
the decision was reached. but will appeal
to prejudice and passion. They will not,
however, influence public sentiment 10
any great extent. because the common
sense Of the country will approve the
finding of the court.
1t is Of course unfortunate for the
treasury that it will be deprived of the
revenue that was expected from the tax
1t is probable however that the steadily
increasing prosperity of the country will
cause an increase in the revenues from
other sources. so that the treasury will
have no difficulty in meeting its obliga
tons until congress is able TO provide
the necessary additional revenue. If addi
tional revenue should be needed.
No doubt those who have paid their in
come tax now regret that they were 81
hasty in doing so. They will have t.
wait until congress makes provision TO
refunding II, and congress may be SLOW
in doing that. because when a PROPOSE
ton is made to refund what has been pai
there is pretty certain TO be a movemen
to have the income taxes refunded tina
we're levied and collected during the civ
war. That would make another compiled
ton. 1t is, therefore. probable that
will be a good while before we sha
hear the last of this mistake of the Fifty
third congress.

Rutterine is a much abused product.
As a matter of fact il is pure, sweet,
wholesome, and infinitely preferable to
ordinary country butter. A special
correspondent of this paper recently
visited the factory owned and operated
nv the Armour Packing Co., of Kansas
Citv. manufacturers of the widely ad-
vertised Silver Churn Butterine. A
five story building is perfectly fitted
for the scientific preparation of this
food product. Everything is spotlessly
clean: all appliances are the latest and
most improved, and every precautiOn is
taken TO secure the production of an
absolutely pure and wholesome food.
All processes are under the direction of
a foreign chemist who has made the
skillful combination of pure sweet fats
the study Of his life.
Prof. Charles Chandler, Of New York
CITY, says: 1.-The product is palatable
and wholesome and / regard it as a
most valuable article of food.
Prof. J. S. w. Arnold, Medical De-
partment, University of New York,
saws: "a blessing for the poor, and in
every way perfectly pure, wholesome
and palatable article of food"

From the Bulloeh (Ga.) Times Dem)

reason why il does not advocate the unlim-
tied coinage of silver at some other ratio
than Is to l. 1t would deprecate an over
flow of 10-cent dollars. as the people might

Only Goldhng in Georgia.
From Columbus (Ga) Enquirer-sun Dem

The only genuine goldbug we have yet
heard of in Georgia is the old fellow at
Gainesville who he's $25. 600 in gold buried
where no one but himself knows, and he
will not give away the secret. He is
real goldbug If there is another one in
Georgia he keeps the fact carefully con-
cealed. The silverbug organs, however,
fear that Georgia is full of goldbugs.

The fine new cruiser New York, en- route
for Kiel. and the Cunard ocean grey
hound Luoania, sailed from New York
side by side on Saturday. There has al
ways been a question as TO whether the
new naval vessels are as fast as the best
of the big liners, and 1t is probable that it
will, to a certain extent. be tested by these
two vessels. Capt. Robley d. Evans, who
may one day shortly be an admiral, is in
command of the New York. and it is
known that he is not averse to making a
test of speed at least as far as the New
foundland banks. A race for that dis
lance, therefore. may occur. The Lucania
is one of the fastest ships afioat. Should
the New York demonstrate her ability to
outsail her it would prove that the United
States have commerce destroyers that
could overhaul any merchantmen, except
possibly the St. Louis and the St. Paul. re-

The republican legislature of New York,
which went into power by an overwhelm-
ing majority last fall, is composed of
reformers of the same character as was
the republican congress under the admin
istrauon of President Harrison. The tax
rate in New York in 1884, under demo-
cratic rule, was 2.1S. The tax rate for
1895, as reported by the finance commit
tee of the House, is S.24. The cause of this
increase in taxation is the same old story
of republican extravaganza; the waste of
public money in every possible manner.
Under the plea of reform and the hue
and cry about the corruption of Tam
many, and the wickedness of democrats in
general. the republicans got into power,
to do over again what they have always
done when in power-waste the peoples
money and increase their burdens.

Wheat Went to IOA cents in Chicago on
Saturday, on which day it was worth
cents more than an ounce of silver. on
New York, hence ten pounds of cotton
would buy more than an ounce of silver.
which was worth 81 cents. What is the
matter now, that wheat and cotton are no
longer governed by the silver market?
VIII some silverite answer? One ounce
of silver, one bushel of wheat and ten
pounds of cotton are the commodities
which the silverites claim should and do
always maintain parity.
