same thing, despite the fact that II
trade is absolutely free there cannot
be any tariff; and If there is any tar
if whatever there cannot be such
thing as free trade.
A tariff for revenue only. If un-
derstani it Alright, means taxation
for public purposes only or rather for
the benefit of all the people. A pro-
tectiye tariff is tariff, the principal
object being the legal robbery of the
masses for the benefit of particular
classes. Mr.. De Hart further says,
Free trade never had any common
sense to support it." r
Now. there are some men who
might possibly object to being halted
by a highwayman and might not
have common sense enough to appre-
ciate the benevolent intentions OF the
knight of the road; it depends some
what upon the fact whether man
views the situation from the point OF
the robber or the robbed.
Since commencing this article |
have happened to pick up a copy OF
Herbert Spencer's 'The Man versus
the State In the article entitled
''The Sins OF Legislators find these
words: 1T is indeed, marvellous now
readily we let ourselves be deceived
| b. words and phrases which suggest
one aspect of the facts while leav-
| ing the opposite aspect unsrggested.
A good illustration of this, and one
germane to the immediate question, Is
seen in the use of the words "prOtec-
ton" and "protectionist' by the an
tagonists Of free trade, and In the
tacit admission of its prOrriety by
free traders. While one party has
habitually failed to emphasize the
truth that this so-called protection al
ways involves aggression, and That
| the name "aggressionist" ought to be
substituted for the name protcctiOnlst.
For nothing can be more certain than
thai if to mainta;n AS profit B Is for
! hidden to buy OF G, B Is aggressed
upon that A may be protected" Nay.
"aggressionists" is a title dOubly
more applicable to the anti-free trad
ers than is the euphemistic title PRO
tectionists," since that one producer
may gain, ten consumers are fieecea.' =
From interview of Count Leo Toll
stoy by William Jennings Brya pub

believer in protection and regards a

SCHOOL CLOSING.

Correspondence to The Commonwealth.
Spring Hill, 4. c. June 6, 1904.
On the first day of June Miss Mary
White gave quite an elaborate enter
talnment at Spring Hill, the occasion
being the closing of her school.
The program was quite lengthy, con-
sisting OF songs, recitations and tab
leaox. The children, though quite
small, showed perfect training and all
the carts we're we'll rendered. After the
exercises were over the entire audience
was served with refreshments, consist
Ing Of ice cream, cake, etc. all seemed
to enjoy themselves. The teacher was
rendered vote of thanks by the pat
rons OF the school for her very efficient
services.

EDITOR DANIELS AND TIL E
PEOPLE,.

The people of North Carolina be-
lieve in Editor Josephus Daniels. The
News and Obeerver grows more and
more popular under his editorial man
aeement, and the late arrest and
abridgment of his liberty by Judge
Purnell OF the Federal court has furn-
ished occasion for the people to show
their love and confidence in Mr.. Dan
1els more fully than ever before.
In all the ordeal to which he was
subjected the brave and fearless editor
demeaned himself In a manner at once
commendable and praiseworthy. He
was self-possessed throughout the en-
tire proceedings; and we'll he might
be, for he felt an inner consciousness
that he had done no wrong but had
simply freely exercised the right OF
speech in criticizing the acts of Fed
eral Judge, which acts he construed to
be an influence alien to the rights and
Interests OF the people of North Caro-
lima. Editor Daniels wrote in front OF
an earnest conviction, and this being
true he had no cause for alarm net
withstandlng he was compelled to sub
init to the close guard of United
States marshals.
In becoming terms and with a mod
esty that inspires even higher esteem
among his friends and admirers, Editor
Daniels expressed his thanks in Tues
days News and Observer for the loyalty
which his friends have shown to him
in his fight for the liberties of the
press.
It has been brief history making
period in North Carolina and tor halt
century to come these events will be
held in living memory Of great and
good people who appreciate one who
speaks and writes for the peoples good
and who stands unmoved and unawed
even while the prison doors swing ajar
In menace to his liberty.

A CONTINUAL STRAIN.

Many men and women are constant
~ subjected to what they commonly
term ga continual strain" because Of
some financial or family trouble. It
wears and distresses them both men
tally and physically, affecting their
nerves badly and bringing on liver and
kidney ailments, with the attendant
evils of constipation, loss of appetite,
sleeplessness, low vitality and despon-
dency. They cannot, as rule, get rid
OF this continual strain," but they
can remedy its Notwithstanding effects
by taking frequent doses of Green's
August Flower. It tones up the liver,
stimulates the kidneys, insures healthy
bodily functions, gives vim and spirit
to ones whole being, and eventually
dlspels the physical or mental distress
caused by that continual strain"

Gus to lawyers, suiiors and witnesses

THE LADIES favor painting their
churches, and therefore we urge every
minister to remember we give liberal
quantity OF the Longman & Martinez
Paint toward the painting.
Wears and covers like gold.
Don't pay $3.50 a gallon for Linseed
Oil (worth 60 cente) which you do
when you buy other paints in a can
with paint label on it.
8 and 6 make IA, therefore when
you want II gallons OF paint, buy 8 OF
L. & NJ, and mix 6 gallons of pure
Linseed Oil with it, and thus get paint
for less than 81 20 per gallon.
Many houses are we'll painted with
four gallons of L. & M. and three gal
Ions OF Linseed Oil mixed Herewith.
