pages Of the book, which is bound in

THE present tariff fight seems to
have disclosed the development OF
more sentiment among the Democrats
for protection than has been observa-
BILE during good many years past.
It is talked around Washington that
almost every Democrat is for low tar
iff except on the products Of his own
district that may be benefited by high
protection. This Is not strictly true
of the South Carolina delegation. Zach
McGhee describes the attitude of the
representatives from this state as fol-
lows:
Both of the South Carolina sena-
tors are out-and-out for lower tarir
all up and down the line. Both OF
them will vote for free lumber, and
they say tariff on Egyptian or long
staple cotton Is ridiculous. They see
no hope for the Democratic party,
they say, except to stick to old-hne
Democratic policies and make a
straight fight. All the other South
Carolina members stand on the same
platform, except Lever and Ellerbe,
who voted for a duty on lumber.
They both say that they have large
lumber interests in their districts.
Tillman says he is for the present at
least done with his old policy OF get
ting his share Of the stealing. He
is going to stand out against all high
duties regardless of where the people
who want the protection live. For
the people, he says, the great bulk OF
them, can not get any benefit from the
stealing anyway

In a controversy between Senators
Bailey and Aldrich the other day as
to the best way Of raising the revenues
Of the government, Mr.. Aldrich stand
ing for the protective tariff and Mr..
Bailey for an income tax, there devel-
oped quite an interesting argument.
Mr.. Bailey held in a general way that
protection which prohibits foreign
competition Is a tax on the whole
American people, and proposed to
eoualize matters by taxing incomes OF
s2,500 and over, holding that in this
way the burdens of the government
would fall upon those who had gotten
most benefit from protection, and at
the same time relieve the actual pro-
ducers of wealth, whose incomes did
not reach that figure. Mr.. Aldrich
replied with the assertion that the
salary of every skilled producer OF
wealth is higher by reason of protec-
ton than it would be otherwise,
and a policy that would reduce the
tariff below a protection basis with a
view to making up the deficit by
means OF a tax on incomes would, at
the same time, reduce the incomes OF
practically all who now earn $4,000
and less. The shot looked like pref
ty hard one and 1t was not satisfac-
torily answered.

CASE OF LOVE ROBINSON.

AS was announced in a dispatch to
The Enquirer Friday, the governor re-
fused to commute the sentence Of Love
gro boy, who killed a little negro girl,
and Robinson is to be hanged next Fri
day. Getting its information from the
testimony and endorsements submitted
to the governor the Columbia State re-
views the case as follows:
The crime was shocking in its bru-
tality. The condemned negro boy had
been living two years with a negro
named Watson in Fort Mill township.
1t appears that on the 26th Of April last
year he tried to force LIMA Watson, a
small girl. She resisted and her hand
was cut with a knife. Later In the day
in the field the boy followed the mat
ter up. When the girl again offered re-
sistance the boy went over to the home
of Mr. Jim Martin Armstrong, few
hundred yards away, and borrowed a
gun for the avowed purpose Of killing
mad dog. That his intention to kill
the girl was all the more marked in its
deliberateness is evidenced from the
fact that he snapped the right barrel
twice before he poured the contents of
the left barrel into the body Of the
screaming child. the discharge making
terrible wound, which produced, in
slant death.
Judge Gage, to whom the petition
was referred, stated that he had hoped
that the jury would make it possible
for him to impose a lighter sentence.
for the negroes were all of the very
lowest order of intellect and for this
reason and on account Of the youth of
the condemned boy he had thought
there was loom for clemency. How
ever. Gov. Ansel did not regard it the
same way and the boy will hang.
In extenuation for the boy, it was
claimed that he had endeavored to ap-
prise Sheriff Hugh G. Brown Of an at
tempt at Jail delivery. He had learn
ed of the plot and had written the
sheriff a note. This was not delivered.
however, until a day late. The note had
been given to a Federal prisoner who
could not read and he was not aware
Of the urgency Of the matter.
With reference to this petition Judge
Gage writes: "The testimony made
out a plain case Of murder. The ne

Case of Love Robinson.

Notwithstanding strong pressure,
the governor has declined to commute
the sentence of Love Robinson, the lit
tie Fort Mill township negro, who was
convicted of murder, and who is to
hang next Friday.
While there is in this case some
thing that appeals most strongly to the
sympathies Of all who would be both
merciful and just-the low order of the
prisoners intelligence, his lack of op-
portunity to know better, and his youth
we are constrained to endorse the
action of the governor in the matter.
There have been murders and muir
ders in South Carolina, and most of the
murderers have gone unwhipt of JUS
tice, through the failure Of juries to dc
their duty. We refer, especially tc
murders committed by white men
And there is no question of the fac
that we have reached a condition from
which, in the language of Solicitor
Henry, Law and justice cry ou
aloud"
AS we see it, the object of hanging
a murderer is hardly more for the pun
