Reciprocity.

We hear good deal of talk about
reciprocity and see a good many
articles in our exchanges on the
subject and find there seem to be
some erroneous ideas extant as to
just what the Republican idea OF
reciprocity is.
Any person who has read care
fully the speeches of the Republi-
can leaders on the subject need not
be mistaken in the views of the dom
inant party on this question. Yet
there seem to be some people and
even a few Republicans who are mis-
interpreting Republican sentiment
on this question. Reciprocity was
never intended to effect competing
products. For instance, it was new
er intended that reciprocity treaty
should be made with Canada where
by farm machinery and other man
ufactured articles made in this coun'
try should be shipped to Canada
free of duty and Canadian wheat and
other grains admitted into this coun-
try in free competition with similar
products in our own land. Neither
was it intended that the duty on
steel and iron products should be re-
moved that similar products from
England might be brought in here
to ruin our immense industries,
cheaper the price of labor and throw
thousands of our laboring uen out
of work that some of our commodi-
ties might be shipped to England
free of duty.
The Republican idea of reciproc-
ity is that favorable terms ana rates
of import may be given on such
things as we cannot produce in this
country and receive concessions
therefor from the countries that pro-
duce these commodities, on things
that we produce. In this way our
commerce is benefited and our in
dustries unimpairsd. The facts now
are that our productions have be-
come so varied, so nearly universal
in fact, that reciprocity has become
almost a dead letter with us. The
time was, and very recently, when
sugar was a fit subject for the appli-
cation of the principles of reciproc-
ity. But since We have discovered
that portions of our country are
well adapted to the production Of

The farmers of Iowa do not take
kindly to the suggestion of free ad-
mission of agricultural products
from Canada in return for free ad-
mission of American agricultural
implements into Canada. The far
mers do not believe that their inter-
ests ought to be traded off for the
benefit of the implement dealer and
manufacturer. In this particular
direction they are not in favor of
"reciprocity in competitive pro-
ducts. "-Des Moines "Capital."

procity." Of course, when they
have studied the subject longer and
ascertained what reciprocity usually
means, they will not be for it. How
ever, all Republican platforms of
this year and next will declare for
reciprocity, largely because it is a
popular thing to say, and 1t is sort
of salve to those who are not very
strongly for Protection. But after
the year 1904 nothing will be serious
ly heard Of reciprocity, especially
in competitive products. "-Des

Democratic Issues.

| Democratic leaders are agreed
upon a single proposition. They
must have an tissue" for the cam
paign of 1904. They have been
cropping for that issue since the Sec
ond popular rejection of Organism
in 1000. AS to what the new issue
shall be, Democratic leaders are
divided. But they simultaneously
recognize that their only hope for
victory lies in the discovery of some
doctrine upon whose advocacy they
can unite.
To this end there was much
speechifying last night, nominally
in honor of the memory of Thomas
Jefferson, but really in an effort to
WITTY the moribund Democracy.
Amid all the wilderness of words
there stands most conspicuous the
proclamation of David B. Hill. He
was addressing partisan gathering
of Democratic editors. He was
speaking to the party organization
in the State whose electoral vote is
is essential to Democratic success.
His speech is naturally interpreted
as an announcement of his own can
didacy. Here is the Hill issue, in
his own words:
Immediate Tariff revision versus as indefinite
continuance of Tariff exactions.
The Republican party will be
quite ready to accept that issue,
without admitting the truth of the
charge that the present Protective
customs duties are "exactions. A
Republican majority in Congress
enacted the Dingley law. A Re-
publican President signed that act.
Under the Mckinley administration
the country emerged from the slough
of despond into the firm and up
ward path of prosperity. For all
that the Republican party is respon-
sible. 1t accepts with gladness that
responsibility. If Mr.. Hill thinks
that he has found In this a basis of
successful political appeal, Republi-
can leadership will promptly take
him at his word and 60 to the cleo
torate upon that issue.
Just a month ago another distin-
guished New York Democrat, Ed
ward M. Shepard, uttered quite a
different opinion upon the policy of
a general revision of the Tariff.
Mr.. Shepard. after frankly recogniz-
ing "the widespread popular belief,
faulty as l believe it to be, of great
masses of American business and
laborlng men in the Protective
Tariff" offered this advice:
Instead of dealing with the whole problem Of
Free.Trade and Protection, instead Of introduce
ing doubt into almost every business, the Dem

Judge James Hargis. a witness, be

the defense in deducting evidence.
Mr.. Hargis Is not an attorney, being
merely a county judge. The state
objected, but Mr.. O'Neal contended
that Hargis being an uncle of Jett at
present on trial he should be ad-
mitted. Judge Redwine ruled, how
ever, that Hargis should be excluded.
Attorney Byrd then began his open

heard pistol crack. Marcum, who
had his arm on witness shoulder, re-
leased his hold and dropped to the
floor exclaiming: "Oh Lord, Oh

report a most pleasant and enjoyable

two candidates were present to address
the people and mingle politics with
pleasure, but these two, Senator Noel,
candidate for governor, and Attorney
J. 7. Parks of this city, candidate for
state senator, made very interesting
speeches and to an appreciative au'
dienced. With the exception of one
drunken man raising some little dis
turbance, the picnic was entirely de-
void of all roudyism whatever, there
being othing of this nature to ma
the pleasure of those attending. 1t i

see fit to repeat the event in the neaI
future, choosing, however, NOR

THE STATE TAX.
Special to the Daily Progress.

SpSCld1 " Tue Ddliy IIOSlSSo
Jackon, June 11-The indications
are that Mississippi tax levy will
remain at six mills for the next two
years. This matter is to be disposed
of by the legislature at its next ses-
sion, and the splendid financial con-
dition of the state warrants the belief
that no increase will be made i'll the
rate. During the past three years
the state has built a state house at a
cost of one million of dollras without
issuing single bond, redeemed
S400, 900 issue of state bonds, in
creased the annual school appropria-
tion $3.50, 900, increased the pension
appropriation, and made correspond
ing increases Of appropriations for
all educational institutions, and the
tax levy is one half mill lower than
it was before the present admins
tration went into Office. The ready
cash in the treasury was sufficient
yesterday to meet all warrants for
the semi-annal distribution of the
school fund, amounting to nearly a
half million dollars, and, while low
tide will be reached during the fall
months, the incoming taxes will
prevent any likelihood Of a deficit.
