Protection to Sea Island Cotton.

Congressman Lamar, of Florida, is seeking
to have Tariff duties placed upon foreign
long staple cotton for the purpose of "pro-
tecting" the homegrown product.
A few thousand Americans grow Sea Is
land cotton. Comparatively little of this
grade of cotton is produced anywhere. The
object aimed at in protecting" the Ameri-
can crop with Tariff duty is to give to the
growers of Sea Island cotton a monopoly of
the American market.

The brothers Who Abenged Their
Sister.

In Virginia good red blood still runs in the
veins of manly men; and when Viola Stroth-
er-the sweet little sister, youngest of the
household, the pet and the pride of the family
was deliberately hunted down by a heart
less seducer, made to suffer tortures worse
than DEATH and was about to be abandoned to
her grief and her shame, the brothers of the
ruined girl killed him.
They shot him like dog.
In just that way, he deserved to get it.
The Law does its best to put itself in the
place of the wronged, and to measure out JUS
tice accordingly.
The whole theory of Civil and Criminal
law, so far as the redress Of grievances is con-
cerned is based upon that principle.
The Law steps in to punish the man who
has done you wrong-denying you the right
to do so. If you were allowed to avenge your
own wrongs, riot and disorder would ensue.
Private wars would be waged. Feuds would
rend the community. The Vendetta would
usurp the orderly procedure of the Law.
But in all the books which treat of the ele-
mental principles of Jurisprudence this Ex
ception to the Rule stares you in the face:
There are cases where the Law, by reason
of its imperfection, or the slowness of its pro-

The Case Against the Georgia Railroad.

Mr.. Bowdre Phinizy citizen and tax pay
of the State of Georgia, had the awful i'm
pudence to criticise the present management
of one of our corporations, to-wit, The GeOr-
gia Railroad.
This state corporation, by the bye, is one of
those which was created by state powers,
state exemptions and state privileges. The
land which it uses as road-bed was mostly
given to it, and for more than two generations
it was practically exempt from taxation.
We favored it, in all sorts Of ways, as a
home institution For several decades it was
a home institution.
Then all at once, Wall Street gobbled it UP.
Since that time, the road has been managed
by New England Republican--named Scott,
and called Colonel-and this Northern Re-
publican has managed the property with
eye single to the qualification of the North
capitalists whom he represents.
Now the awfully impudent Bowdre Phini-
zy, moved by the instigation Of the devil and
the evil imaginings of his own wicked mind,
has dared to criticise the management of this
imported Mister Colonel Scott saying, alleg-
ing declaring and by positive averment as
sertng that said management of the imported
Mister Colonel Scott is not management at
all but is gross mismanagement.
Actuated by evil promptlngs, as aforesaid,
the said Bowdre Phinizy offers to prove that
the management of the Georgia Railroad:
(I) Uses rotten crossties.
(2) Uses kerosene lamps-or was it tallow
candles ?-for headlights, instead of equppng
itself with up-to-date electric lights.
CD Uses lightweight rails.
(4) Fails to ballast the track where such
ballast is necessary to safety,
In support of the charge that rotten cross
ties are to be found all along the road, evil
dence is offered of numerous places where the
iron spikes can be pulled from the ties with
the naked fingers; also of places where the
ties underneath the rails have been crumbled
up in the hands; also of places where, upon
being removed from the road-bed, the ties
fell to pieces, being too rotten to be handled
and piled; also of at least one instance where
a spark from passing locomotive had set fire
to the rotten Crossties in the road-bed!
Mr.. O. S. Lee happened to be travelling
the dirt road which parallels the railway at
the place where the tie was burning, saw the
blaze, went to it, found the crosstie on fire.
and put it out!
In another place the rotten crosste in the
road-bcd caught afre, burnt outward and ac-
tually carried the fire to pile of new cross
ties!
One would suppose that the manager sent
down here by the Wall Street gang which
gobbled our road would be civil, if not con-
ciliatory, in coming before the public and the
Railroad Commission to defend himself.
The indictment against him is serious, and
the array of evidence against him is formda-

THE WEEKLY JEFFERsoN1AN.

Besides. the general line Of conduct pursued
by the managers of our Georgia railroads.,
since the Northern millionaires scooped them,
has been SO contemptuous OF public opinion,
SO dsregardful of the comfort and conven-
ience of the patrons of the road, so scornful
toward those who complained OF mlstreat-
ment, that the railroads in Georgia haven't
got any friends outside of the patriots whose
names ornament the payroll.
So far as Goodwill is concerned, the cor
porations in Georgia get what they are able
to buy-and no more.
Therefore it seems to me that the imported
manager, Mister Colonel Scott, made mis-
take when he adopted the policy of bluffing
Bowdre Phinizy. Just how easy that gentle
man may be to browbeat | have no means OF
knowing.
Mister Colonel SCOTS lawyer, Maj. Jos.
B. Cumming, must have felt that Bowdre's
case needed to be given black eye at the
earliest moment, for the usually suave Major
had hardly got before the Commission ere
he damned Bowdre and his case by roundy
denouncing the Petition for its "slush and
rot" and "appeals to reudice and false
hood"
That kind of talk before the introduction of
evidence on either side, was must unusual.
if not improper. 1t is surprising that the
Commission allowed it. There is an appear
d0Ce Oh IHC pun pOSe W DlOWDCdC dllu lIlllIll-
date that se1f-respecting tribunals find it hard
to tolerate.
Corporation lawyers have had powerful
sway in Georgia, as in other states. Their
success has, in many cases, filled them with
pride and self-conhdence
But it seems to me that Maj Cummi'o
has chosen mighty poor time to indulge i'll
what might seem to be disposition to brow
beat
Corporation lawyers who seek to bulldoze
citizens and tribunals for their effronterv II
questioning the management of our public
roads are simply throwing fnel to flame.
do not believe that Mr.. Phinizy is the man
to be hectored or bullied, but even if he were,
the case against these railroads would not be
dropped. The people of Georgia are aroused
and they mean to wrest the control Of our
public roads out of the hands of Wall Street
robbers!
They mean to have our roads run in the
interest of our home-fol<s and not of gang

+ Why are you justified in killing the assail-
ant who is trying to kill you?
Because the Law can not save you. 1t is
too slow. You must take the Law into your
own hands, and save yourself
To keep your house from being burned, to
save your wife from outrage-nay, to balk
the raid of the horse thief-you may shoot,
and shoot to kill.
Why? Because the Law is unable to give
you, in such cases. that immediate justice to
which you are entitled.
You are entitled to protection for self, fam
lily, home, property of all kinds. When the
Law can give it to you, apply to the law.
But when, from the very nature of the case,
the law can not give it to you, then you must
give it to yourself.
The milk-sob, asinine and mollycoddle
doctrine of non-resistance has no place in the
souls of manly men.
Let such warped fanatics as William Lloyd
Garrison declare that he would not by force
interfere to prevent his own wife from being
outraged.
Such a man may in some abnormal condi-
tion of things be able to toss torch into a
powder house, bring an explosion, and thus
be remembered as one of the incters of the
insanest war in history: but that's about all
he's fit for.
For any constructive or preservative pur-
pose he is less than worthless.
Let such editors as Willard, of the New
York Evening Post, denounce the Strother
brothers, describe their deed as inexcusable
murder and lecture the South about sflaw-
breakers" and Judges whose spirit is that of
a lyncher.
1t is safe to assume that Willard would new
er shoot anybody about his sister.
He has sister, by the way, and this sister
alleges in court proceeding that he took
from her certain money left her by their faith
er.
A who would denounce the Strother
brothers for killing the DESTROYER of their Sis
ter, is none too good to rob his own sister;
and it would seem that Wizards sister brings
that identical accusation against him.
| can not bring myself to believe that any
considerable number of Northern men en-
dorse the cold-blooded principles of such writ
ers as Garrison and Willard.
The whole social world will be purer when
it becomes well-settled fact that no Judge or
jury will punish the citizen, who, in good
faith and in consequence of that degree of
natural human passion which is supposed to
be uncomfortable slays the black-hearted vii
lian who has done him intolerable wrong
such wrong as the law, from the very ma
ture of the case, CANNOT ADEQUATELY
