From many quarters we hear of re?uctl0ns of wag m muanufact urincr establishments, and from more we hear threats of reduction 1u case the Wilson bill becomes, law. The reductions which have actually been made are the re sults pf the business depression, which is due primarily to the pan ic of last summer and the inevit ably slow and painful- process, of recovery. The threatened reduc tions are vociferously declared to be the necessary result of the low er duties. For twenty years it has been preached anl procraimed that a high tariff makes wages high," and that a low tariff means a reduction of :wage3 to the pauper limit of Europe. We are told that now we shall have the proof of the pudding iu the eating; What is the truth of the matter ? The notion that the general iiigh range of wages in the United States is due to the high protect ive system is really one of the most preposterous of the many pre posterous ideas on economic sub jects which have had vogue in this country. The reader who will look in the books on political economy to see what they have to say about wages and about the causes which make them high and low will find plenty of difference of opinion on this topic among the economists; but the one thing he will not find any reputable writer to say is that the protective sys tem makes wages high or that" a free-trade system makes them low. If the books are supposed to Be the works of abstract theorists, who keep far from the realities of life, we need only regard a few simple and obvious facts cf history to dis cover that a high tariff cannot be the cause of high wages, This country has tried almost every sort of tariff system, bofirinnincr in 1789 with duties which the protec tionists of our day would consider outrageously low, andf ending a century later in the McKinley tar iff act, with duties which the free trader considers outrageously high. Throughout all the vacillat-ons of tariff policy, under revenue tariffs and moderate tariffs and extreme tariffs, wages here have been stead ily higher than in European coun tries. The simple explanation is thaTthis is a country of rich and abundant resources, developed by an active, energetic, and inge nious people, in which tbe great productiveness of industry insures a high range of material welfare. Wages with us are high from per manent and abiding causes, and, fortunately, do not depend on tar iff legislation or any other artifi cial prop. WitlTthis it is not inconsistent to admit freely that the wages of some particular classes of laborers, in some limited groups of manu facturing industries, may be seri ously affected by the duties.' The high duties of the last generation have forced into existence some in dustries that may seriously affect the duties. The high duties of the last generation have forced in to existence some industries in which the efficiency of labor and capital is not up to the general av eragend in which the manufact urer who pays high wages to his vbrkmen is . not compensated by their greater skill, energy, and productiveness. In -industries of this sort the free competition of foreign producers, paying- lower wages., would compel either " a re duction of wages or an abandon ment of the" industry. Where there is really such a connection between the duties and high wages every oneT would say that Congress should prjjreed with the almost care,--and should not expose to a sudden re versal of fortune or asndden chauge of occupation the workmen whom our tariff legislation has : indnced to enter into weak-kneed indns tries. The same is true of the cap ital embarked in - them. Vested rights should receive their due consideration. "'v'We"- believe they have received Iheir due considera tion : in" the Wilson bill. . Tbere may be reductices that go ; beyond tbe danger-line in some particular duties;'l)ut have we not -been au LOUISBURG, thontatively told "that even thel McKinley bill made a mistake or two ? The common-sense and the political interest of the Democrats may bejtrusted to prevent them from making changes that promise to be really destructive; xand. the testimony of the protected manu facturers as to the effect of duties must be received with the same al lowances as the pleading of a law yer for his client, But the number of shaky and dependent industries, as compared with the whole manufacturing sys tem, is insignificant; and in any case there is no threat of free com petition from abroad - From the clamor which has been raised il might be supposed that the Wil son bill gave up all protective du ties entirely, and that all foreign goods were going to come in on easy terms. The fact is that the neon uiii is a creiui ana con servative measure, and that the duties, even.as reduced, still leave a large margin of protection for the domestic manufacturer. It must be remembered, to, that the temptation to make partisan capital out of reductions and rnreats 01 reauctions oi wages is one of the many bad results of that unfortunate alliance of poli tics and manufacturing vhich has marked the history of the last ten years. The manufacturer who ob jects to the Wilson bill because it will cut down his profits or com pel him to introduce , economies and improve his methods to meet foreign competition is likely to proclaim that he will reduce wages just as he will virtually compel his operatives to sign petitionsagainst the tariff bill, all with the hope of staving off the inevitable. No doubt, too, many manufacturers are in good faith fearful of the consequences of the proposed meas ure. They have been told for years that their business depends upon the tariff., and that they cannot pay their wages unless bolstered np by the tariff. They are fear ful and uncertain of what may happen, and they join in the gen eral alarm. Under these condi tions the thing to do is.to pass the tariff act with all possible speed, and get the element of uncertain- ty out oi tue way. When tuis is done it will appear that the cry of woif has been raised for naught, and that the labor of the country is in no danger from a loosening of the county is in no danger from a loosening of the bands which have fettered our industry and enterprise. Harper's Weekly. This Year's Elections Charlotte Democrat. The election in North Carolina in November will be a most im portant one. Successors must te elected to succeed Chief Justice Shepherd, Associate Justices Clark, McRae and Burwell, who were ap pointed or elected to unexpired terms. Lawyers must also be elected to succeed Judge Whitaker, Judge Shuford, Judge Bynum and Judge Battle, of the Superior court bench. This election will deter mine the complexion of the Su preme Court bench, and is, there fore, of the highest import ance. Nine members of Congress are to be elected, 50 State Senators, and 120 members of the North Car olina House of Representatives. These Senators and Representa tives are to elftgVa . United States Senator to succeed Hon. M. W. Ransom, and a Railroad Commis sioner to succeed Capt. T. W. Ma son. - In addition to the above, ev ery county officer in-the State is to be chosen. The time has not yet come for opening the campaign, but it is apparent that 1894 will be oneTof tbe hottest political years ,in the history of the State.; I will use no other.

Jt is bard for the average man to undecatand of bow 'little " import tance he is in the-eyea 'of. others Even if hj3 has done something which makes "everybody - talk," the talk is of short duration, aud the subject is soon superseded by trivial matters in the talker's own province, outside of which be bos little real interest. If tempted to be egotistic, it is well to reflect that no one's interest iuyon at all compares with that yon feel in yourself. An- egotist s i,. always self-congcions; he imagined every body is impressed with his superi ority, and self, with a capital S, is paramount. This vain belief in their own importance, which most people cherish, is not all a source of unmixed happiness. It will work either way. There is no commoner form of morbid misery than that of the poor nervous men or women who fancy that the' are fehe subject of universal unkind re mark, or who think every body iR. conspiring against them. There are several ways in which self "conscionsness disagreeably evinces its existence. One is the manner in which some people euter a church or public meeting. They walk as if the eves of tho whole congregation were burning upon them, and pose during sermon or lecture for the public eye. Anoth er lorm oi sell-consciousness is awkwardness and bashfulness, which arises not from the sense of superiority, but from the opposite cause of self-depreciation. Many people are so imbued with their own imperfections that they imag ine everybody is impressed with the same idea, and it makes them ill at ease and embarrassed. If they commit some slight blunder, they are consumed with mortifica tion, and inwardly writhe over it long after the incident has been forgotten by those who witnessed it. Self-consciousness is a fault, like everything else, ond it is only where we realize our own persoual insignificance in this great big world and forget self and selfish motives, that we can truly acquire the charm of naturalness and tru ly correct deportment. Wavcrly Magazine. Rare Stones. Among famous pearls, the most curious is that which, three centu ries ago, tbe French traveler, Ta vernia, sold to the Shah of Persia for six hundred and fifty thousand Ldollars. Princess Youssoupoff has an Oriental pearl which is unique for the beauty of its color. It is worth nearly a quarter of a million. Pope Leo Xllt, owns a pearl left to him by his predecessors on the throne of Saint Peter, which is worth one hundred thousand dol lars, and the chain, of thirty-two pearls, owned by the Empress Frederick, is estimated at one hun dred and seventy-five thousaud dollars. In France pearls and ru bies are, at the present time, far more fashionable than any other precious stones. Diamonds are chiefly worn sewed all over a vel vet or silk ribbon, which is tied loosely around the neck. Really beautiful tortoises are very rare. The Maharajan of Ulep Sing, for mer King of lAhere, owns one of the most famous, aud a son of Abd-el-Kader, has in his possession the fetish tortoise on which are en graved the legends dictated by Mohammed. Ex. An Ungrateful Farmer. A good story is told of an Amer ican farmer who had a servant with a very large month"! One day, the ("farmer being ill, Sambo was dis patched to market to dispose of. a quantitty of vegetables. : On bis way home be encountered two highwaymen, who demanded bis money or bis life. Tbey, however, coutd find no. 'money, so after -a while they decamped with the horse and cart. On arriving homo Sambo explained the "robbery to his master, but drew from the. cor 'ner.of bis month the money, where be had placed it for safety. f Why in 4he narne;.of thunder didn't yon put the horse and cart there, too?" exclaimed bis master. 19, 189 1.

It was repor ted by Mr. Dockery, of Missouri, from the joint committee to inves tigate the executive department?. Section 1 abolishes the postal notes. Their usefulness has dis appeared as they afford no pro tection whatever. Section 2 re duces the fees to agree with the fees charged by the different ex press companies. The schedule of fees proposed by the bill is as follows: Not exceeding $2.50, 3 cents; from $2.50 to $3, 5 cent?; from $5 to 10, 8 cents: from '$10 to $20, 10 cents; from $20 to $30, 12 ecnts; from $30 to $40, 15 cantp; from $40 to $5), 18 cents; from $50 to $00, 20 cents; from $(30 to $75, 23 cents; from $75 to $100, 30 cents. Section 3 redu ces tho fees paid to postmaster? to 3 rents for th Usimnr irnn. ey orders. This applies to thiri ! and fourth-class postmasters, thuu ' putting them on a par with first and second class postmasters. Section 4 of the bill provides for turning into tbe Treasury the; a J funds that are notv held by the ' J i Postothce Department on account ! of numerous unpaid domestic j moneys and postal notes. Section 5 forbids tbe payment of a mon- j ey order more than one year old by issuing a new money order. Section 8 directs that reports from money order offices be sent direct to the sixth auditor iustead of to the Postoffice Department. Sec tion 10 extends the privilege of issuing money orders to small of fices now allowed to issue only postal notes. Section 11 provides a means of paying for lost money orders. Sections 12 and 13 pro vide for carrying the above regu lations into effect, aud fix July 1, 1804, as the date when the 'law shall apply. It Should Be In Every Honse. J. U.
