Whereas, The indisputab1e cause
for our low prices, financial depression

the annually increasing Importation of

Whereas, The Democratic party and

a duty placed On WOOL, rice, hides and

Whereas, The placing of said duty
on the above mentioned articles has
proven a direct benefit to our people.

not part without a struggle; and,
Whereas, There are but two ways
whereby the money necessary to main

densome, as they now are; and,
Whereas, We are forced from the
nature of things to depend on a tax

into this country from foreign coun-

it
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this legislature that a tariff should be
laid for revenue only and arranged SO
that if it shall prove a burden all may
equally bear it, and if a benefit, it may
be equally shared.
Resolved further, That we are IN
a1terab1y opposed to the free importa-
cents per pound on all long-stapled
cotton.
Resolved, That we favor an import
duty of so per cent ad valorem and
cents per pound all long stapleG
cotton imported into the United States,
and that a copy of these resolutions
be furnished the senators and repre-
sentatives in congress-
Who will say after this that the
world does not move, and that the
South is not progressing? One can
excuse the curious INCONSISTENCY of the
declaration which in one br saith calls
for tariff for revenue only ind in the
next breath stipulates that tie duty on
long-stap1ed foreign cottoa shall be
prohibitive. 1t must be re membered
that the Georgia Democrats, having in
their veins the blood of three genera
lions of free traders, are no. very well
up in the logic of 1atter-day econom-
les, and hence do not know that a
tariff for revenue only and q protective
tariff are elements as incompatible
oil and water, as inter-repugnant, in
ter-destructive, and contradictory. But
there is hope for them. They are
surely ascending in the scale of intel1i-
gence and practical common sense, and
to become ful1-fledged protectionists
all they need is time and just a little
more intelligence.

Mr.. w. L. Terhune, publisher of the
Boot and Shoe Record, says: 1.-The
boot and shoe trade is closing the most

of the apparent fears of the free-trad-

Their appears that the much talked of
tariff on hides, so loudly denounced by
the free-traders, has laid no burdens
on buyers of shoes In Mr. Terhune's
opinion, the tariff on hides has had mo
detrimental influence on the boot and
shoe business He states, in fact, that
scarcely any hides are imported for
boots and shoes.

THE BRIAR-ROOT PIPE.
Iii Not Briar-Root at All, but the

Iii Not Briar- Root at All, but the
Erica Arborea."
How many smokers know what their
briar-root pipes are really made Of? In
one of those valuable repertories of fact.
the consular reports. we find some infor-
nation on the subject which will. no
doubt, be read with interest. Our vice
consul at Leghorn, Mr.. Carmichael,
writes The wood from which briar
y pes are made is not the root of the
brlar rose, bur the rool of the large
heath known in botany as the erica
alborea: Our 'brair' is but corruption
of the French 'bruyere. The briar-root
industry has had y somewhat curious his
tory. First begun in the Pyrenees some
tttty years age. it Travelled along the
French Riviera and the Ligurian coast
taking Corsica by the way to the 'Tus-
can Maremma, and has now reached Ca
labria in the south, which is at present it's
most furnishing center. Legh0rn has al
ways been the center of the export of
Tuscan briar-r0ot since the Maremma in
dustry came into existence, but as the
South Italian br;ar is of admittedly SUI
perIor quality. large quantity of the
Calabrian root is also imported into Leg
horn for selection and subsequent eX
port"
How the briar-root pipe is made is also
explained by Fice-Consul Carmichael,
who says all the root that comes into
Leghorn has already peen cut into the
shape in which it is exported to the pipe
manufacturing centers. which are princi-
pally, at least as regards Italian briar. St
Claude in France, Nuremberg in Bava-
ria, and various towns in Rhenish Prus-
STA and Thuringia The roots. which are
sometimes of a circumference of two feet
or more, are cut into blocks and then
hoi.ed. If there is any defect in the root
which has not been discovered before the
boiling process, the blocks are bound to
split sooner or later. Briar-root blocks
are cut into about twenty-five different
sizes and three principal shapes. The
shapes are "Marseillase," Relieve" and
"Be.gian." The first two are the more
usual shapes. From the 'Marseillaise"
blocks are cut the ordinary briar pipes,
which have bowl and stem at right
angles: relieve" blocks are cut into
shape for governing into hanging pipes,
and Belgian" blocks, for which there is
but small demand are shaped to fashion
into pipes which have bowl and stem at
an obtuse angle. A considerable quanti-
ty of blocks is sent TO the United States
