BLEAsE AT BOSTON.

From the Charleston NewsCourier,
Why there should be such a rails
ing Of hands on the part of the gov
ernors at Boston because of ex-Gov-
ernor Blease's reiteration of his we'll
known sentiments as to the lynching
of negroes is hard to understand. The
governors invited him there and they
ought TO have known what 10 expect.
His performance at Richmond was
enough of itself to put them on notice
as to what they would probably get.
To have put him down on the program
for a serious discussion of the treat
ment of criminals was nothing short
of insulting to the State of South Car
olina in view of the gross and outrag-
eous manner in which he abused his
powers in this regard during the
four years Of his incumbency. If those
who asked him to speak on this sub
pect did not know OF his record they
should have done so.
Some of the northern newspapers
yesterday telegraphed to their ORE
spondents in Charleston asking fol
statements as to the views Of the peo.
pie in this State upon Ex-Governor
Blease's utterances. The people o.
South Carolina gave their verdict il
this manner just a year ago. The is
sue of the campaign which was Tough
out in South Carolina last summer
was whether or not South Caroline
should give its endorsement to thu
orgy Of lawlessness which had beer
maintained throughout the Blease ad
ministration. Its emphatic refusal t
do so resulted in Blease's defeat 70
the United States Senate and the
election Of Richard T. Manning whom
the people of South Carolina delegat
ed TO represent them at the Bogtol
conference Of governors. The fac
that Blease was there to bring dis
credit upon his State was no fault o
theirs.

in bars is hazardous and under pres

want to exhaust gold funds of Euro

II would also be impracticable for
Great Britain and France TO pay by
gold shipments for the vast supplies
which they have contracted for in this
country for delivery in the next
twelve months.
The second expedient is to resell
in the New York market American
securities now held abroad. These

quantities. But the allied governments

that reduction removal OF tariff duties opened our

in favor changed TO a balance against us and
that the balance continued against until the Euro

LINGER IN THE WHITE HOUSE7
From the New York Sun.
Having matters on his hands so en-
crossing as the German controversy,
together with the Mexican situation
with its day by day threat of violent
explosion in new as we'll as the stand
ard centres of riot, II is hardly sur
prising that the President has been
opposed TO plunging into the subject
of tariff revision in the coming ses-
sion Of Congress.
It would appear that he is still un-
convinced that this tariff is in need of
revision; that he still discredits its
i'll effects on the business of the coun-
try up to the time of the outbreak of
the war, and that he still has faith in
its sufficiency as a revenue producer
and as a stimulant 10 prosperity,
through incitement to higher skill and
better methods in American indus
trial activities.
The sooner this delusion gets out
of the Presidents head the better for
the United States. The new condi-
tions and new complications arising
from the war and the worldwide dis
turhance Of the balance of msyeufac-
turing trade present an unexampled
opportunity. People are beginning to
sec what prompt action and judicious
protective legislation in the matter Of
the dyestuffs industry might do for
the country. The dyestuffs industry
is a single illustration only of the
