Daily States.
Respreseutative Underwood of
Alabama 10 not one OF those who
are carried away by Mr.. Babcock's
newborn zeal for tariff reform.
Mr.. Underwood says that Mr.. Bah:
cock had an opportunity to have
the question: OF tariff reduction con.
sidered At the last session Of Con-
gress, but he failed to avail himself
Of the opportunity presented, and
with this fact confronting him Mr..
Underwood suspects the sincerity
which causes such an outbreak now
in the midst of . recess. No one
Can accurately judge the motives Of
others, but there is good ground for
susPecting Mr.. Babcock's belated
activity TO be something in the
nature of play to the galleries.
There is growing sentiment of
rebellion against the Dingley tariff
throughout the West, and many of
the local leaders fear the loss of
power IN future elections unless
something be done by the next Con-
gress TO appease the people. A
number of the most prominent
manufactures have contended that
the tariff only hampers their trade
instead of beoe6tting it,, but many
of the great trusts which own the
Republican party have not yet given
any intimation that they are tired
of the tariff, and until they do no
relief can be expected from the
Republican party. Mr.. Babcock's
little by-play may therefore be only
intended to placate the former class
by making them believe the Re-
publican party is ready to respond
to their demands, while the trusts
are perhaps assured that while such
diversions please the people they
will not be allowed to be pushed far
enough to injure the trusts. The
is growing rapidly
the county against a
of the existing robber
tariff, and Mr. Babcock probably
hopes 10 appease the clamor for a
revision by a great deal of talk on
the subject of tariff reduction and a
very small amount of Topping off of
rates, and that only where the in
terests of the trusts are not affected.
The Republican party is not built
10 lesislate very seriously against
trusts.

Legitimate and Illegltimate
Banking.

The Commoner.
There is place in our CONNER
cial system for legitimate banking.
And it is place which may be oc-
cuPied with honor and profit to the
carefully conducted financial insti-
tuition. But there is no place,
properly speaking, in our system of
government for a bank or a coterie
Of banks assuming the "dictatorial
powers" which Jackson crushed
the ''dictatorial powers" which
these institutions began to assume
in our politics in 1896 and have
continued to assume since that
year.
The combined banks of the coun-
try,Sope rating under the advantages
of what the Investor calls ssorgan-
lied wealth." have shown that they
have the power TO make and unmake
members of congress, United States
senators, governors of States, and
even the president of the United
States. These were powers which
Andrew Jackson said were alto
gether too great to be possessed by
any one interest. And >the cour-
ageons emphasis which Old Hickory
put into his t'By the EternaP'
placed the very check upon the
money power Of that day that
should he placed upon the money
power of the present period.

ne Following IS an abstract from
the address of Hon. Il. H. Lewis,
delivered last Saturday at the dedi-
cation exercises of the Institute.
We think the remarks are eminent
ly appropriate in these times, and
The Gazette regrets not having
the space to publish the address of
Mr.. Lewis in full:
land here, l will venture to express the
opinion that statehood and the sentiment of
LOYALTY and affection which the citizen feels
for his native State is now the chief hope
and reliance for the maintenance of our
constitutional form of government. 1t
seems that we no longer rely upon the ad
ministration of the general government to
preserve the ideals and fundamental princi-
pies which prompted our Revolutionary
fathers in framing the Federal Constitution
and which are the corner-stones underlying
that grand work of human wisdom and
human virtue. 1t has been the custom since
the foundation of our republic on set days
and occasions to celebrate the act of separa-
ton from the mother country and to revive
and perpetuate the memories of that historic
epoch. But considering the wide departure
from the doctrines of the fathers and the
recent departure from the fundamental
ideals upon which they built this govern
ment, and considering the apparent approval
given TO the new interpretations of the Cons
titution by wide sections of our common
country, we must now look to the States for
the restoration of these ideals and principles.
The conservatism which is to preserve the
Union and the Constitution resides in the
States as indestructible entities and TO them
we must look to save our free institutions.
In my judgment the State having the con-
troll of the education of its citizens can,
through its institutions of learning, cultivate
the sentiment of patriotism and devotion to
the principles of constitutional government
BY ordaining part of the curriculum of
every educational institution under the con-
troll OF the State, down to and including the
nesnnnar grade school. a course of study of
tke Constitution and the history of its for
snation, and that great chart of human liber-
~, the Declaration of Independence,
ahould be hung upon the walls of every
schoolhouse in the State, and its grand
utterances instilled into the hearts and minds

tion from the State,

A recent issue of the Confeder-
ate Veteran publishes a version OF
the 'Bonnie Blue Flag" and claims
that it was first sung in a New Or
leans theatre in 1867. Every once
in . while some new claimant to the
authorship of this song, or some
new version of the melody. is pre-
sented to the public, none of the
former having any foundation in
fact or reason. 1t is a fact not
generally known that the song was
written in the City OF Jackson on
the 9th day of January, 1861, and
it was first sung on the night follow
ing in the Spensles Theatre by its
author, Harry Mccarthy, a we'll.
known comedian of ante bellum
days. Col. J. l.. Power,
Mississlpp,'s venerable secretary
of State, for the truth
of this version of the song,
and he put it into type for the first
time from the authors manuscript,
afterward printing 1000 copies for
Mccarthy. According to Col.
Power, the author obtained his in
splration from the secession con-
vention, which, on the 9th day OF
January, formally withdrew Missis-
sippi from the Union. Mccarthy
was in the hall when the vote was
taken on the ordinance of secession,
at the conclusion Of which blue
flag, made Of silk and with a white
star in the centre, was presented to

Homer Smythe, and it was waved

Of conflicting public opinion in

South African gold and diamond
fields contribute a very large tax,

African war.
The mine owners and spectators
not only object, but are, of course,
able to command other powerful in
duences IN protesting against the
proposed government action. They
have q color of justice on their side
in the fact that the war has been
exceedingly disastrous to their
operations if not to their permanent
interests. But this is a .color" of
justice only.
1t was these mine owners who
were continually complaining of
their treatment by the South African
republics and appealing to the
British government for protection
The war was the direct result of the
demand of these mine owners for
an active share in the Transvaal
political administration. They un-
doubleday misrepresented the
strength or resistive power of the
Beers and thus led the British into
monumental blunder. It was the
