TO THE BUSINESS MEN OF CHAR
LOTTE. Nearly ten years ago The Observes
was taken charge of by the present
proprietor. From that day to this
we have given our time, talent and
money to advance and upbuild the
interests of this community. Ten
years ago your daily paper was an
experiment. It had not made its im
press upon people outside of Char
lotte. An experience of four months satis,
fied us that a daily paper, giving the
latest dispatches, and conducted as it
ought to be, must result in pecuniary
failure. The remedy was to build up
the weekly edition, and make the
receipts from that source help to pay
the expenses of the daily edition. In
that field we came in direct compe
tition with the Southern Home and
the Democrat, the former edited by a
distinguished and accomplished gen
tleman, an ex-Lieutenant General of
the Confederate States Army, and the
latter by a gentleman, able and com
petent, who had long been in the ser
vice of his party and his poople. But
the Weekly Observer entered the
field undaunted. The two rival papers
have long since been consolidated as
a matter of business, while the
Weekly Observer to-day has the
largest legitimate circulation ever
enjoyed by any paper of its kind pub
lished in Western North Carolina.
During the same time the circulation
of the Daily Observer has been built
up to proportions beyond our most
sanguine expectations.
Last spring we thought we had an
opportunity to retire from a business
where we had found by long ex
perience there was no just reward for
the amount and character of labor to
be performed, or the capital to be in
vested. Circumstances prevented
this, and while we do not care to ex
plain purely personal business mat
ters, the present manager finds him
self to-day at the head of your news
paper. We do not ask, nor have we
ever asked, a dollar of credit, but we
do ask, and think we have a right to
expect, your cordial sympathy and
legitimate support. With many peo
ple of Charlotte we have that already,
and to those we tender our most pro
found thanks, but we want the same
right hani of fellowship and good will
from all.
We are here possibly for the bal
ance of life. We shall spare no pains
or expense to make The Observes a
success in all that the term implies
That task will be very much lightened
if we can have the business support
which such an enterprise deserves
from all the solid business men of
the city.
Business is business. It is a habit
of many of our business men to de
plore the fact that business in Char
lotte does not expand and increase as
it should. What are you doing by
individual effort to secure and attract
trade? Are we co-operating with
each other to build up the city? This
is necessary to secure needed addi
tional transportation facilities, modi
fied freight rates, and the fullest pos
sible advantages to Charlotte, from
those which already exist, and which
owe their existence- largely to the
liberality and .public spirit of Char
lotte people and Charlotte money. . To
promote this how many of you attend
the meetings of the CharlotteChamber
of Commerce, or join in devising
measures, for the general good,. and to
secure unity of effort towards making
such measures effective, thus render
ing invaluable assistance to that indi
vidua! enterprise which is the basis
of real and permanent commercial
success?
In fine, then, The Observer needs
your aid and assistance, and you need
the aid and assistance of The OB
SERVER, Let us help each other in
this rear of grace 1884, and make it
memorable in the history of the city.

put out of the way in this case by
the offer to prove that there were

hold that the property in the trees
passed to the vendee.
Tobacco Dealers Moving on Congress.

the importance of making an eariy

46.013 claims, aggregating $3,588,-
337.03. which will be paid when an
appropriation is maae, nearly a,-

The rebate is claimed under act of
Congress of March 3, 1883, reducing
the tax on manufactured tobacco,
which orovided that on all unbroken

THE TARIFF QUESTION.
A Leading Democratic Conaresxman
Defends and Explains the Ohio Plat
form. Kew York Sun.
To the Editor of The Sun Sir I
feel myself compelled to controvert
the statement that as regards the
tariff the platform of the Ohio Demo
crats in 1883 in vague "and may bear
a double construction."
The Ohio Dlatform. in the first
place, limits the tariff to the "neces
sities of the Government economi
cally administed." There is certainly
no vagueness there. Next, it expli
citly lays down the principle that, in
the application of the tariff, it shall
be so adjusted as to "encourage "pro-
auctive industries at home but not to
create or foster monopolies." Is there
any ground for a double interpreta
tion here? The difference between
encouraging home industries and f os
tering monopolies is very distinct. To
illustrate : Suppose the actual differ
ence in the cost of producing steel
rails in his country and in England,
as labor and other things now stand
adjusted, to be $10 a ton. Then a
tariff of $10 a ton, by putting our own
steel industries on a plane of equality
in competing in our market with the
foreign product, would encourage the
production of steel rails at home.
Twelve dollars a ton would be more
encouragement, and it can be shown
that when the tariff is but slightly
above the difference in cost of pro
duction, the importor, in order to get
into our market, will cut down his
own profits, and to that extent he,
and not the consumer, pays the duty.
Now, if the tariff is not carried
above, or much above, the line that
marks the difference in cost of pro
duction, there can be no monopoly.
lhis, I trunk, is evident enough to
anybody. But if the actual differ
ence in cost of production is but $10,
and the tariff were made $30 a ton,
then it would enable the Amalgated
Steel Association to combine and put
the price of steel rails to a point just
under the importing price. That
would be creating and fostering a
monopoly : or, in other words, lend
ingthe aid of legislation to enable
one class to levy charges upon anoth
er. It can be shown, too, that up to
the point I have indicated, labor
would derive the larger share of the
benefit arising from such a tariff.
But, above that point, capital alone
would be benefitted.
Hence, in the Ohio platform the
difference in the cost of producing
commodities, as things at any time
stand adjusted, is made the datum
line from which to work in the ad
justment of the tariff, and the guiding
principle iaia aown is encouragement
of "productive industries at home,
but not to create or foster monopo
lies." This principle differs funda
mentally from that of "a tariff for
revenue only," as it does from the
"maximum revenue principle, "in the
Walker tariff system.
Ihe different principles, as vari
ously advocated, stated together are:
1. A tarin tor revenue only ; that
is, a tarirt leviea with a view to rev
enue only, and without regard to con
sequences, only that the required
revenue be produced. Such a tariff
may, I think, be fitly designated as
a tana without intelligence, inas
much as it calls for no intelligence.
and admits of none in the-application
of a tariff, except what is necessary
to bring in the required amount of
revenue.
II. The maximum revenue princi
ple. The tariff to be levied on noth-
-1 . I i A 1 . 1 1 t
ing aoove me point mac win ormg
the greatest revenue. This is known
as the Walker principle.
ill. A tar in so adjusted in its ap
plication as to encourage productive
industries at nome, out noi to create
monopolies.
IV. A tariff tor production, with
out regard to revenue.
The first and fourth principles are,
one the extreme view of some Demo
crat and the other the extreme Re
publican view.
rneaurerence oetween tne seconu
and third principle may not appear
at first sight, and the two have some
times been confounded, but the ait-
fprf-nr-.e is nevertheless verv distinct.
The maximum revenue that can be
derived from any imported article is
the greatest product obtainable by
multiplying the quantity imported by
the tariff rate. But this rule will
always, and necessarily, require a
tariff below the protective or encour
agement pomt. Thus if $10 a ton is
the difference in the actual cost of
producing steel rails here and abroad.
then nothing under $10 a ton tariff
will be protection enough to. put our
own steel industries on a footing of
equality in competing for the home
market. rsut tins is not me pomi oi
maximum revenue. With a tariff of
JtlO. on the suoDOsition that this cov
ers fullv the difference in cost, half
or more ot the home consumption
would be supplied from the home pro
duct. If the whole annual consump
tion is 2,000,000 tons, and say only
one-fourth of this comes in as a for
eign product and pays the duty of
$10, then the revenue derived would
be $5,000,000. But it the tariff were
lowered to $7.50, and under this tariff
a million tons came in, the revenue
would be $7,500,000; and if a tariff of
$5 a ton would give to the foreign
manufacturer the entire market here
and 2.000.000 tons should then come
in; the revenue would be $10,000,000.
This is main that the pomt of max-
imim revenue is alwavs. and neces-
sarilv below the protective point.

THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER.
The President Recommends Further
Appropriations for its ImproYemeat.
The message of the President trans

the Mississippi are so vast as to be of
national importance, and tne project
now being executed for their cheap

proviaea lor. xiie commission re
port that the results due to the still
uncompleted works have been re
markable, and give the highest en
couragement for expecting the ulti
mate success of the improvement.
The act of August 2, 1882, appropri
ated $4,123,000 for the work on that
part of the river below Cairo. The
estimate of the commission already
transmitted to Congress . call for
three million dollars for the con
struction of the work belovs Cairo :
and it appears from their report that
all of the last oppropriation of $1,000,
000 to continue the work without loss j
of time, in view of fie approach of
the flood season, with its attendant
dangers. I therefore recommend to
Congress the early passage of a sep
arate billon this subject."
