Plain Dealer.
Mr.. Watterson's particular brand OF
democrats" appear to be very scarce
outside of the republican party.-At-

ton has no terrors for me-" He is
playing in luck to have such a compla-
cent disposition. He will have use for
it--Houston Post.
The Chicago Chronicle a served no.

T.. Thomas Fortune states that the
colored men gave Mckinley 1.500. 900
votes and hav secured only four minor
colored appointments to official places.
He threatens retaliation with a big r.
Manchester Union.
There are go. 900 words in the Eng
lish language. and most of them were
used on Sunday by a woman who dis
covered after coming out of church
that her new hat was adorned with a
tag on which was written, Reduced

Inc republicans are anxious to con-
tinue the fight for sound money. That
Is TO say, they are anxious for the
fight between democrats on his ques-
ton to continue, while they will take
from men of all parties any kind of
money in payment of tariff taxes
Louisville Post.
President f. Benjamin Andrews, of
Brown university, after studying the
silver question in Europe. c~orroborates

For doing so the trustees of that school

The only thing the tariff bill makes
aus reasonably certain of is that there
will be another period of tariff tinker
ing some time inside of four years.
Houston Post.
They say 9th Wilson wants to be a
congressman. North Carolina has
struck congress some pretty hard ticks,
but it has never yet sent up a SOtho.
We have enough standing jokes in
congress now.-CharlOtte News.
The Wilson bill taxed fannels an
average of As per cent; the average un-
der the Dingley bill is 100 per cent.
The duty on silk underwear is %increas-
ed by only about 10 per cent. by the
Dingley bill. And that is the way. n
way. the new republican tariff bill ia
vors the rich.-Asheville Citizen.
The tariff is a tax-there is no get
ting away from that proposition. This
act levies a higher tax than any SINH
lar one ever framed in this country 1t
is an axiom in politics that a people
cannot be made rich by taxing them,
and this is now to be put to the test.
The high protection provided for by
this bill may help some of the highly
protected manufacturers, but this
still leaves their customers out in the
cold. We have no expectation what
ever of general prosperity resulting
from this Dingley bill. but let us wait
and see. 1t is the result of a series of
scandals. Never did a tariff bill go
through to which there at
tached more suspicion Of corruption
and wrong doing, n we have the
Scripture for the statement that no
evil tree brings forth good fruit
Statescville Landmark.
The controversy between Judge Rea-

On the other hand, the Washington
Post quotes from an interesting letter
of Major j. Horace Lacy, of Freder-
