STRUDWICK, of Orange County. v I Tn Tariff. 0 There is a great deal of talk about the tariff, and there-are. ar great many tariff payers who have not taken the pains to learrtiw much as they ought to know about its meaning. There are three kinds of tariff, viz: 1. Tariff for Revenue. -2-. Tariff for.Protect ion. 3. Tariff for Prohibition. 1. Tariff for revenue, is a tax on , goodi brought into thi? country from j foreig countries to Jpay the. expenses ' "of ranning our government. The tax I on foreign goods should ..be 5no higher than necessary to raise money enough to pay our lawful government expen ses.' ' ' '-' ' -'v ..." 2. A tariff for Protection is a higher lax on foreign merchandise than h necessary for government revenue. It is designed to protect manufactures in oar country against the cheaper pro ducts of manufacturers in foreign countries; and one of the -effects of it is to enable the home manufacturer to charge u higher price for his goods. . ..A prohibitory tariff is a tax pitch ed so high that the foreign con not af ford to pay it, and is kept out of our markets entirely. 7 The people who consume the mer chandise made by bur manufacturers rayjhe tax in the higherprice of the goods; and it is a matter of figures how jOTicb on each dollars worth of mer bandiae consumed the consumer pays. Under the present system of tariff it t$ i7 els on the dollars worth, and tttis goe3 into the pockets of the man .ufacturer, besides the regular profits on bis products. -. Now, reader, if you want to pay the manufacturer 47 per cent, on every .dollar's worth of his good that you .consume besides lis regular profit, then Tote for Harrison aud the republican party. The demderats don't think it is fight and they will vote for Cleveland, who opposed to such grabbing every jtime.. . - Xhurmaii'i Speech. ; AT PORT HCJtOH. i Mr Tburman visited Port Huron, Michigan, and made a ringing speech . here on the 224. Always practical, his speech, on this v occasion .was. elear common seie talk . im the great issue of the preset cam- ! paign, Mr. Thin-man illustrated in ery simple-way. the operation of tar ff taxes as falling upon the people, j 4nd condemned the policy of tlie par- I i .i'iri1 power for hoarding iihe peopje's .money doiug no one any good, instead I M learing it in. the pocjeefcs of the peo- Kiaily busnres?. : j- There was a. large; gJithering at Port ilnron to?see and hear the Cpld Roman. jend riirht craullv was he ..honored' 'f Whither:Bra we Driftinl" -"I i; Under this captionthe yyettpviue Observer ot the 23J iasLi gives the par ticnlars of a' tumultous dUorJer in that town which came near ending in a Wiir between the whites and blacks.- Itr origiuated from the arrest" and committal to j;iil of two negroes ac cused of committing an assault with deadly weapons on a wliite woman. A report got out among the negroes "that the two prisoners were to be mob bed. There was no foundation for the report, biit it was the occasion of a mob of negroes assembling at tha jail Mon day night of hist week, armed with guns and pistols. Through the cool ness and wisdom of Magistrate V. Jones, who .7ent among the mob about 2 o'clock at night, they were dispersed. On Tuesday night thpy re-a'ssemoled at the jail disorderly as the night ibefore. But the Sheriff was on hand, and had provided for the assistance oi the Far etteville Light Infautry,in case of need. This evidence; of a determination to protect the peace had its effect, and no violence ensued. .. Only a few weeks ago a terrible riot Occurred on the streets of Fayetteville, and a yelling infuriated crowd of ne groes threatened to. rescue, two prison ers from the custody of the city mar shal, 'v - yf. '" Now let us . riot suppose that this State of things is only of local Signifi cance. It concerns the people of .the State and should uot be lightly passed over. - . Six Billion. - ; It is estimated, aud we believe cor rectly, that the South has received six billions of dollars for her cotton alone during the last eighteen years; and the inquiries are made. "What has the South to show for that vast sum. of money?" Where has it gone? Whom has it enriched. This sura divided by the-population of the cotton producing portion ot the South, would make its inhabitants the richest people on earth: and yet though they may not be the poorest, people in the world, they arc far from being rich. If our people woula; be content' to live on what they can produce at home they would soon be ve"ry. rich. The fat of our generous soil flows north to enrich the jirotected manufacturers. There was a fearful ship disaster at Sau Francisco last Thursday morning. The City of Chester was sunk by the Oceanic from Hong Kong and Yoko hotna. The latter vessel coming in, was the former going out.. There was a dense fog on the bay and the comman ders could not see the vessels approach ing each other until the Oceanic was so near as to m ike escape i impossible. She ran her sharp prow into the City of Chester near midships, and nearly cut. her in two. She filled rapidly and went down with a rush in four minutes. The Chester's cabin p issengers, 70. in number, were on deck at the time, and braced themselves for the collision. Twertty-one steerage, and ten cabin passengers were lost, besides a number of the ship crew. It is suggested that the time is not very distant when glass pipes will te introduced to take the place of iron pipes; and that when a large quantity of piping shall be needed at any place, a furnace will be erected and the pipes made on the spot, the material for the manufacture being found in almost all localities. And why not use the ordinary drain pipes with a slight change in forming the ends, for bored wells? The wood pipes now used rot oat in a few year, especially near the top, and present an uncleanly and. disgusting appearance, which would be obviated by earthen pipes. , The Alabama Christian Advocate, a staunch temperance and prohibition journal of the Methodist church, de nounces the third party movement as fraught with mischief both to the pro hibition cause and the best interest of the country. When such men as Dr. Abernathy and the organs of the Meth odist church feel called up n to denounce a movement which they believe to be dangerous, it is time for reasonable men to call n halt, if they are going in the wrong way.

Tho clothes without protection would cost $14.' - If he buys a $1 hat he gets 40 cents worth of bat and CO cents worth of pro tection. ; ... v If ft young couple just beginning house keeping boy a yard of Brussels carpet for fl, they receive 45 cents in carpet and 65 cents in protection or say for a Whole room, $12 worth of carpet and $18 worth of protection. With free wool $18 would be saved. . , i If a young woman pays $9 for a shawl she gets $8 worth of shawl only; the other $3 she present? to the manufactu- j rer to "protect" him. If she buys a dress Tor $18 she gets $12 worth of dress aud $6 worth of protec tion. . , u i If, however, she wants a pair of shoes, which formerly cost $4.50 to $5.50, she has only to pay $2.50 to $3.50, according t nn.ilitv Iwfiuise Home of the "orotec-, tion has been taken off 'of hides, from which the leather in the shoe is made. Tf ho nnvs 50 cents for an iron pot or pan, she gets. 30 cents in goods and 20 cents worth of protection. If fihe buys a clock for $3, she receives $2 worth of clock and $1 worth of pro tection. .

Tf hf had to buv a ranjrc or stove for $25 she gets $17 in goods and $8 worth of protection. If ehfi buvs a dozen class tumblers for $1 she receives in glarjs 55 cents and 45 cents in tariff. If a young farmer buys $100 worth of implements to start out in farming he gets $55 in machine and $45 in tariff pudding. With the Mills bill, passed he could get a horse and harness, as well as his implements, for his $100. If the farmer purchases a barrel of salt for $1 he gets G4 cents in salt and pays 36 cents in protection to companies in flvracuse, Warsaw and Saginaw. "Mr. Blaine and Field Marshall Matt Quay are at liberty to use these faets in their new political catechism for the present and coming generations. Look where yoji will, follow the whole tariff list now inforce, down article by article, and you will find the hand of the public robber reaching for your pock et to steal from every man, womau and child in the country. Sing each must consume something so each must be rob bed. .. The essence of high protection, ns a recent writer said, is the placing of ob stacles in the way of trade. -People are expected to build ships, to promote im portations, invent machinery to increase and cheapen production; then the tariff steps in to prevent the one and defeat the other. The inventive genius of the uation is called upon for scientific appli ances to annihilate time, distance and other natural obstacles to commerce, and forthwith every protection obstacle that can be devised is brought to bear to prevent the-country -receiving any bene fit whatever from its Skill and labor. Nobody can deny thai since 1883 espe cially that this has been the policy of Mr. Blaine and Mr. Blaine's ignorant follow ers, who must be educated. Atid just now his G. O. P. declares that the main tai nance of such a policy will be the sal vation of the country. Frantically Waving the Bloody Shirt. - The Republicans are making desper ate efforts to get away from the great issues of taxation reform and the main tenance of American rights against Hnr ish aggression. They are falling back on the old shibboleth of the ''bloody shirt," the standard under which they are used to march to defeat. Campaign lies and the blood' fhirt always $oes together, so it is no surprise to find the bearers of that gory banner charging Judge Thurman with the authorship of what is called the "Peace Resolu tion" of 1804. As Judge Thurman has thought it worth while to stamp out this false hood withont delay, we repeat his vig orous denunciation of it as follows: No, I did not write a single line of it, and in fact had nothing whatever to do with it. Not a single word contained in the resolution came from inc. I was not a member of the Committee on Resolu tions. Mr.' Yallandigham defeated me as the member of that committee from Ohio, I thi.uk by just two votes. The resolution earoe through the committe in the regular wa I believe. At all events, I had nothing whatever to do with it. It is very stupid in the Republican manager to start sueh a story. They should confine their misrepresentations to the oases of dead men, so that, es caping direct contradiction, some fools may believe them. If they desire to follow Ingalls in shiftiug their ground to the issues of sectional hate, carpet big rule, and the saturnalia of public 1 1' 1 Il .1.1 -r 4 ... piunaer mat disgusted tne people with Republicanism, we will not object. We will hold them beaten in the tax discussion and in the controversy about American,, rights in foreign countries, and we will follow through whatever field they will, yielding nothing of what we have gained and defeating them in every new coutention. So let the waving of the bloody shirt go on just as long as opponents care to stake their fortunes on such a desperate; and -disgraceful contest. New York Star. Trouble in Mitchell County. Asheville, N. C, Aug. 2S. Informa tion has been received here to the effect that in Bakersviile some days ago the Democrats erected a flajg pole on which they hoisted the stars and stripes wirn tne names , ot Cleveland and Fowle printed thereon. During the succeeding night the negroes and white. Republicans cut the pole down. Intense excitement is said .to prevail there and serious trouble is feared, if it aas not already occurred, The leading Democratic members 'of the House have already made est! mates of their strength in th'e next Congress. They figure out a majority of oj . little more than they have in the present House. They claim with confidence that they will gain one member in Missouri, two in Kentucky, three in Virginia, one, and perhaps tv o, ; in North Carolina, two, perhaps three, in Illinois, one in Indiana and California. They expect to lose nine member in Minnesota, one in two in Massachusetts and possib Ohio, one in Con necticot. This would give them a gain of five. In New York they expect to hold ibout their present strength, or to make a gain of one. They rather calculate on losing one and gaining two members in that StateT In Iowa. New Jersey, Penn sylvania, and generally throughout the other States they expect little change. Ex. Thurman on Cleveland, Port Huron Mich: l l f am man who iny rcg the truth t suv tin?

Harrison is a sort of cold blooded Edmunds, with a like amount of hatred for the South. At Asheville Senator Voorhees drew his picture thus: "I happen to know Ben Harrison, the Republican candidate for Preiden. He lives iu my State, and I do not know a narrower, more bitter, unscrupulous ma lignant hater t the South than this man Harrison. lie is a man that believes that God is witli him, even if he is in error.
