We have received the new catalogue
Of the Tulane University of Louisiana
In New Orleans, just received from
the University Press. An examine
ton of its contents show that the
year just closed has been one OF the
most notable and successful In the
development of the University. The
teaching force and the attendance
have been the largest In all her his
tory, being Sc teachers and LOB stu
dents. The opening Of the dormi-
tories during the year has filed q
long needed want, and makes 1t now
possible for student to attend the
University at a minimum cost. 1t is
estimated that $175 will pay the ex-
penses Of scholarship student in the
academic department for a session,
and the Bureau OF Self Help will do
all in it's power to assist students Of
limited means to help pay their way
through. There are a large number
of scholarships open to Louisiana
boys, and 1t is the declared policy OF
the University. that in the academic
colleges, no boy II properly prepared
for college work, will be turned away
from inability to pay tuition. We
note that the attendance OF students
from the country parishes is steadily
increasing. We call attention OF our
readers to the advertisement Of the
University in another column.

Only the Sick Need Medicine.

There are men who believe that al
that is necessary to revise the tariff,
is to give brief time to the cutting
of duties. The country was prosper
Gus in 1892 until the defeat of Gen
Harrison made sweeping tan if re
vision certain Such sweeping re
vision was made in the Wilson bill
which the house passed. The Ger
man bill, which became law, saved
the iron and other schedules, but tbi
certainty of revision along. purely
revenue lines was the leading cause
of the panic which followed the in
auguration OF Mr.. Cleveland. Recov'
cry did not come until the passage o.
the Dingley law.
With this warning before the couE
try the general revision of the tariff
should be made with the greatest
care. The country is prosperous be
yond precedent. Few people can be
greatly injured by retention of thu
present tariff for season, when labor
is so generally employed and many
lines of manufacture are crowded
with orders. The Pittsburg Dispatch
an Independent Republican paper
holding conservative views on thu
tariff, is right when it says that tar
iff revision is a medicine; it may dc
some good when commerce is un
healthy, but if, in the height of bust
ness vigor, we begin tinkering the
industrial body with nostrums, it may
very soon reach the condition of bae
health The growing sentiment
among Republicans who discuss the
question in Washington is in favor o,
submitting the revision to a body O
experts But, whatever policy MAY
be adopted. the Republican party will
be united in its support.-Indianapol

Protection With Reciprocity.

There is ample room for reciprocity
alongside of protection, but the latter
cannot and must not be supplanted.
The American producer needs markets
for his surplus products, but he is not
ready to surrender the matchless
home field in order to get them. Nor
need he. The United States, with its
industries developed under the foster
ing care of protection. has so much to
sell and is in a position to buy in
such large quantities that it cannot
command favorable terms without sac
rificing domestic interests 1t was
Lord Salisbury, the British premier,
who once lamented the fact that free
trade had left England economically
defenseless- He said in substance
that his country could exact nothing
from other nations in return for trade
concessions. because it had already
given up everything, and there was
no opportunity for a quid pro quo. The
United States, on the other hand, is
economically impregnable. Protection
has aided it in perfecting a wonderful
industrial system, and it is in a posi-
ton to sell to all the world. 1t has
almost illimitable resources in the
foru of products which the world
needs 1t is able to buy vast amounts
of goods which other parts of the
world supply. 1t holds a masterful
place. and can make reciprocity min

Would Stimulate Hostility.

Reciprocity is being urged as a
means of staving off or allaying Euro
pean tariff hostility to the United
States, yet it is more calculated to
stimulate it Whatever concessions
we make to one nation we must make
to its competitors, or else we shall.
have all sorts of trouble. The matter
of tariff would thus be transferred
from congress to the state depart
ment, and constant tinkering would
be the result. If we are going to
make changes in our tariff rates it
would be far better to make them
direct and have them apply to all
countries, than to begin fritterine
away the protection of our industries
piecemeal, with constant disturbance
of trade because of the uncertainties
of the future The interests that are
behind this movement for extending
the markets for some of our products
at the expense of others are powerful
and apparently have with them
strong following in the senate, but st
takes a two-thirds vote to ratify a
treaty and here is where they may
fail--San Jose (Cal-) Mercury
