THE TARIFF FOR THE
PEOPLE.

Under the above heading, the
Tazcwcll Republican, copying from
the Inter ocean, says:
"The tea duty recon-
mcndcd by the Finance Committee

debate. Only in time of war, or
IN the rcconStrnctionary era con.
Sequcnt thereon, has u tea duty
been tolerated 10y the people
Such duty is direct opposition to
ali Republican theories of tariff.
y tea duty is Il tax, pure and
simple"
Exactly so. a tea duty, leather
duty, Il coal duty, or any other duty
levied on necessities, is a taX," pure
and simply. You may call it
"Tariil," or "duty," or what YOU
please, but TO n plain sensible man
it.is q "taX." If the tax on tea

people can better afford to pay a
high tax on what little tea they
use, than they can OH clothes, coal
etc. Tea is the drink of the rich
principally, and they are able to
pay it. 1t does seem that that
crowd in Washington are deter
mined to frame no law which favor
the poor, toillng masses of mankind.
II tea were made in the United
States, and there was u great big

then whether the tax would come

Once let the public understand
that an editor is conducting his
newspaper to promote his own po-
litical interests, and the influence
Of that editor and that newspaper
are impaired, if not wholly de-
stroyed. A newspaper is private
property, but it is public institu.
ton, and it mnst stand for the pub.
lie welfare or not stand at all.
No man who is a candidate for
office of any kind, whether State
or Federal, can conduct with free
dom a fearless and independent
newspaper.
For our part we believe that in
conducting such paper the man
who does so renders a greater ser.
vice to his State than he could by
holding off:ce.-Danville Register.
There are certain people in the
world that, with all our wisdom and
learning, we don't know what to
do with. Among them is the indi-
vidual who dead beats his neigh

They even make fun of your pa
per sometimes, but will sneak a.
round and pick up or borrow yours

No mystery about it. When the
Shakers offered some time ago to give
away bottle of their Digestive Cor.
dial to any one who might call ut their
New York office, there was great
rush and a great many people thought
they were crazy.
Subsequent events proved it to
have been n very clever advertising
transaction, for although they gave
away thousands of bottles it was in
the end profitable; nearly every one
that took II free bottle came back for
more and paid for it with pleasure,
saying they had derived better re.
suits from its use than froE&6nv other
medicine they had ever used.

eve all know that the white pop.

No, my friend, we don't all know
it. We don't know it; if we did we
would not attempt to show the
contrary. You simply make a
statement without giving
your reason. We stated in a
former article that we believed the
majority of the white people of
Tazewell are democratic, and gave
our reasons. Your "time and
space" eve all know" is very val.
liable, hut you could, at least give
us something more than the bare
statement. We have the official
returns, of TaZewell County for
the last seventeen years. The
largest majority, according to
these figures, obtained by the
Republican party in the county,
for the last year was 943 in 1896,
except the year 1856, when it was
larger. Last year was Prcsiden.
tial election, when every voter
possible was brought out. The
Negroes voted, it is said, almost
solidly, for Mckinley, and every
body knows that it is difficult to
keep the average colorcd man
from voting, especially when large
promises are held out to him, and
indncement offered. Let us sup
pose however, that 100 colorcd
men did not vote, and only count
1000 cOlord votes polled for
Mckinley last year. Then take
1000 votes from the 1926 votes
cast for him, and Bryan has

tered votes not cast at all. Give
the Republicans one fourth of
these, which makes ia, and add
