When high protectionists who have
grown rich by depressing the con-

even cry out for free trade it is time
for all southern men TO unite and
stand solid against the consuming
power and terrific expressions of a sys-
tenn of taxation that feeds and supports
the mighty Frankenstein Of Trusts il it
has not been the the cause Of its life.
The present tarif-the creature of
Mckinley, Reed and Co.'s indeed a
giant, a monster, and is far more
sweeping and drastic than the old re-
publican tariff named after little Nc
Kinley that was rejected by the people
at the poles. In 1892, it had a great
hand in Staying the rotten, republican
robber. The Baltimore Sun aptly says
Of the present iniquity and it fits here:
Under it a whole brood Of trusts
has been Matched, and the work of
combining and restricting trade and
robbing the many for the benefit of the
great corporations is going merrily on
There is a cry going up against the
trusts all owe the land, but it is In
needed. Republican conventions pass
resolutions against them, but the re-
publican encouragement says that
the federal government is powerless
to enact any law to restrain them. The
state legislatures alone possess the
necessary power. The state legisla-
lures have been trying in vain to frame
law to restrain them which will not be
declared unconstitutional by the courts.
Mr.. Havemeyer tells just how congress
can remedy the whole matter COM
planned of by the people. Deprive the
trusts of the tariff protection and they
will at once become harmless. Open
the doors of competition and that will
protect the people from eXtortion, and
what is still worse than extortion, the
arrogance of these great corporation
combines. The tariff, therefore, is as
live an issue as it ever has been in the
history Of this country"
It will be made an issue in 1900. 1t
can O be slaughtered. 1t will be
heard. 1t will help to smash the vicious
arI false old party that has battened
upon the garbage of falsehood and
crime. There are othe r live issues,
and if the democrats cannot win the
battle with such potent instruments
then the country will be indeed on the
descent to a lower depth Of oppression
and villainy. For thirty years we
have fought protection and if living in
1900 would take great satisfaction in
fighting the monster again.

That many teachesrs are incompe-
tent goes without saying. That many
of them have no knowledge Of history,
civics and other important things is
equally true. If papers OF examination
were published regularly, as We have
seen them in an English magazine. they
would amuse and amaze. The informed
people would see how little qualified
many are who apply or who teach. The
Hendersonville (Ky.) Journal gives
some insight into a late examination Of
colored candidates for certificates to

they bear upon the government question
