Taxing The Southern Farmer +.

uSlbe Dinglsy s,.sy.- bi!H promises to undo
for the south much Of the goo,a. that
was done our section by 80,
present tariff. The democratic par
party cotton gins on the free
list, aud now the republicans pro-
pose TO put tariff ON them.
Every farmer is TO be taxed to put
more money in the pockets of gin
manufacturers-at o time too when
we are able TO make gins cheaper
than any country in the world. With
iron being exported from Birming-
ham TO Liverpool it is nonsense to
say that the maker Of gins needs any
protection. The labor entering into
the gin is made by machinery. We
venture to say the old Pratt ;lle fac
tory that has be, making gins in
Alabama for. fifty years, does not
need, and has not asked any prortec-
ton.
The Cingley bill proposes to rein
pose a duty on cotton begging. The
democrats took off that duty
and thereby destroyed the trust
which feeced our planters for so
many years. To again hamper it
with a duty is simply to enable the
cotton bagging factories to raise the
price and tax our cotton growers To
lie tune of three OF four millions of
dollars upon crop Of eight Or nine
million bales.
We take it that the cotton planters
Who are by long odds the most num-
erous of southern farmers will show
their hostility to any representative
in congress who votes. for the Dug
ley monstroslty.
The democrats took off the duty
from agricultural implements. The
republicans have proposed to. impose
duty, and thus COMPEL the far
mers TO pay the amount Of the tax

of which people have read so much
in the,past few months. Whatever
1T was took us by surprise and was
gone so quickly that there was only
time for reflection after all was over.
| Months ago a report came from
California that successful flying
ship had been perfected and that va
, rious people had seen it. The report
was treated with good natured in
credulity and was thought TO be the
work of some newspaper man with q
vivid imagination. For time moth
ing more was heard of the airshp.
Recently, however, it or something
has been seen by Kansas, Nebraska,
Iowa, and now by South Dakota peo-
pie. Reports have been sent TO the
dailes and the editors, thereof have
been having lots Of fun over what
they call meteors or, as some of
them put it, the evening star. Last
week, however, many people of Ha-
warden claim to have seen the ship,
claim it was 80 close to the earth they
could hear its occupants laughing
and talking, and that they could dis
tinguish the voice of a woman. The
evening l. was seen at Hawarden was
the same evening something was seen
in the heavens over this city.
! Reports have ii that the queer
craft sails about the sky, apparently
under perfect control of some intelli-
gent power. There is a possibility
that areial navigation has been solved
and we may as well be prepared to
be properly astonished when the IN
ventors of this wonderful craft see
ut TO make themselves known.

The AIrship Sighted.

So much has been published in the
great daiIies about an airship recent.
y that we concluded TO copy the ac-
count of one given in the Alexandria
(South Dakota) Herald and let our
readers estimate lis worth:
One evening last week at about 10
O'Clock strange sight was noticed
in the heavens. When first noticed
it appeared to be very bright star,
but'as it rapidly grew closer it re-
sembled white search light. 1t came
on very rapidly from southeasterly
direction and passed over Alexandria
going In a porthwesterly direction.
As II vert over, those watching the
strange visitor were amazed to note
that the light turned to red. Then
it dawned upon the watchers that It
must be the mysterious flying ship,

TEE POST OFFICE POSITION

The prospect of the Bay st.
Louis post Office being put in
charge of negress was never
brighter than at present, and as
our people would not want It
70 be so it becomes necessary for
action and prompt action at that.
The spectacle the situation would
suggest, aside from the principle.
is anything but in keeping with
the generality of this proud and
worthy community, and the
thought alone does appear ex-
tremely ludicrous.
That the people of Bay st :.
Louis and the patrons of the post
office are opposed TO this proposed
most obnoxious imposition, goes
without further consideration, and
should this proposition become a
fixed reality, it will become our
imperative duty of applying the
remedy. Why the opposition
would be superhuous to dwell up
on-the subject is self-appealing.
In our opinion no woman should

thoughtful reader will find much
argument in support of this as

Of the place, feels confident of
