EVENING EDITION. - nn nwivrTAH nnfllHI a WH T1RIVP .REVISION. .,Wion ft Prftfpnt.inn nanfir becrins r 11 uwu ajr a awwwwav A g to talk of "common sense about the Tariff" you may look out for a good deal of quiet and perhaps superlative nonsense. Last year the Protection nroana asserted ap-am and again that the Democrats meant to wipe out?all protection, abolish the Tariff alto gether and destroy the ind ustries. The name th ey gave the Democrats who simply favored a fair, scientific readjustment and a common-sense . reduction of the Tariff was "lree - Traders." They did this knowing that there were not probably a thous and Democrats in the country who . desired the wiping out of the Tariff. They knew that probably there were as-many actual Free Traders among I Republicans as theree were ;J among I Democrats." . But v. it i: was- campaign I times, and the;milIs.of misrepresenta-I tion must run and the Protection, pa j pera must furnish the grist. I One of the most conspicuous ind J ableslTof this class pf papers was .he I Philadelphia Press. It is not only a I very Dima aavocate oi nign r-roieu- r tion, but it f keeps ,a. leuow named Porter employed who, like Satan, goes up and down the 'earth gather- ing facts and statistics to manipulate : and pervert for the advancement of the Protection hobby. That paper j last year predicted awful ': things if the Democrats got in power." But just now it lowers its tone and changes its tune. Hear it: . ' . i " " . i -"- - "It is not likely that the Democrats in ' Congress will attempt anything more in the way of a revision of the tariff beyond the changing of certain ad valorem duties to ' specific duties and the consequent increase ot reduction upon the articles so changed ' oi tne import tax. i ne irutn is,, me ma-. iority in the House is afraid to tinker the laAttlfln the Southern States, where the . free trade sentiment was almost universal ' a few years ago, there is a growing belief - in the benefits of protection, especially in ' those' localities ; where -manufactures .are . spr tnging up. - It wiH not do to frighten ' and possibly ruin this class by radical leg- , islation in the direction of free trade." ' - i'i,'-L? :' r""- 1 A .few comments are necessary. -The Democrats showed in their plat- form'bf prTnciples adopted at Chfca - go that they " never intended "to'at - tempt" any thing radical or destruc- i uyerne; a ariii piank, t very care fully guards against this. When the Press ysz& slandering and misrepre seating the Democrats and their can ' "didates for President andVice Pres- '- ident it knew this. - Id. the second place, the Democ rats are bound to make an honest effort V :to reduce and. readjust the Tariff, which all . admit is unfair, unequal andunscieritifio.- With a Republican ' - Senate and some Democrats of the - - Randall type in ther. House they may v Kemiltances must be made by Check, Draft Postal Money Order, Sxpress, or In Registered tetter. Onlv such remlttanoes will be at the not be able- to do what is desired and4 clmg ta" Jtemp to, do it : will be made Jwe nan ' not foira moment doubt. ' Td expect cr 0 else would be -.to expect jjcl fnf Ormdd .men to ignore convictionsand principles and ; promises. The maen piawuriu ui 1876 was strong for revision an.d re duction. The conntry; .is tar worse off now hati thenrand macmore needs a change in the Tariff lawsT . In the third place, Protection Dem- oofats ''irenotvery -meron in the South,lwe think. ( We doubt if there are fifty thousand to'be.found-They, have a perfect right . to. their vie we, but if they favor retaining the jpre- sent War Tariff they are out of -har mony with the traditions principles and deliverances of thef uemocratio party in the Union. But there is no free trade policy, favored even oy those who beheve that as an abstract principle it m true. .. ? The Philadelphia Ttmes-is rro tection exponent but it favors some sort of reduction. In a late issue it said this of the triumph of the De mocracy in the last election and the election of the Cleveland! Adminis tration: .-; :jr .t.'y" "It was done because the country; was. assured that the free .trade dreamers bad been unhorsed in the Democratic party, and that honest Tariff revision, based on just discriminations In favor of the general productive industries of the country; and against all monopoly, would be attained under a Democratic reform administration. "The great business interests of the coun try, financial, industrial and commercial, now well understand and generously ap- Dreciate the conservative position of the government in regard to toe material pros perity or -the people. w " n is now understood that the government is to be ad ministered on business principles; that the Tariff is to be revised ' on business pnnci- Dies, and that the industrial and general business interests of the nation are to guide the Cleveland administration regardless of political campaigns." :;' SOUND PRINCIPLES VERSUS FED ER1L BOUNTY Senator Blair has given notice that the Paternal Pedagogy bill will be again introduced in Congress, and he feels confident that it will become a law. Very likely. Among the Congressmen of this decade "the old flag and an" appropriation" consti tute a most potent influence. If the Blair bill could be discussed upon its constitutional merits and without an appeal to the mean and sordid pas sions of human- nature, there would. not be a corporal's guard to vote for it in the Congress. But the idea of becoming a Government pensioner and drawing a million or two dollars each year from the Federal Trea sury is too much for tne average man who is in Congress. It will be an evil day and bitter when the Blair bill becomes a law. It will be the be ginning of a constitutional interpreta tion that is too contemptible for ref u tation,and the beginning of a constitu tional violation that only presages the downfall, soon or late, of that sadred instrument. But the bill will pass, and hence forth the United States Government becomes the universal patron and school teacher in the Slates of the Union. Shades of Jefferson and Madi- son and Jackson and Jerry Black! When the Constitution is treated as a huge piece of india rubber that can be made to cover every enor- mity, to meet every demand of ior- did natures, to satisfy the clamor of deraagogism, to rob the people un- der the most specious pleas of neees- sity and right, then it ceases to be of real value and is unworthy of serious regard. ; There are 'men from the the Congress who pass un der the name of Democrats who either have no accurate knowledge of the history and guiding principles of genuine -Democracy or they have ; no regard whatever for their binding obligations. -There are - Democrats and Democrats and they are very hn like in the principles and doctrines they profess to hold. . . - ; A distinguished North ' Carolina speaker was addressing an audience some years ago. .Another prominent INorth Carolinian, a Judge; was among the auditors. He said to us afterwards : "I listened for two hours to the speaker and although we are fighting for the same endto keep out Radicalism and will sup port the same ticket, I do not ' think he gave expression to a half dozen opinions with ' which I agree. S In fact I do not accept but little! he said." ; Now both of these gentlemen were fighting under a common ban ner, but were both Democrats f Nay, verily. . '.' -: : ' ' : We begin to believe that there are not so many men m ; the State now who are grounded in the mud-sills of genuine iemocTacy-as there were before the war. The great funda mentals are not known and cherished as they were. rBut there are tens of thousands or. voters, men of sense and character, who have not bowed in worship to the new, political Baal set up in ;Washington, and who still es that constitute the safeguard of a peo ple's, libertyf . These, men wiir never accept gifts from; the Federal ;Gdv; C4 uuVf fcuai; t violate s the : Uonstitu tioni and.that ' tend to;'destrby ' the self-respeot, self-reliance, and inde-v pendence' of the people and invade . - . . . . i the Sovereign Commonwealths. ... f j TOBACCO-IS IT HtBTFCL. fj. : Professor Hnxley, a very eminent British man of science, in a recent debate on smoking took ground .in. f aVor of tobacco. He, aaid he tried to use tobacco but it was a poison. hia lasted for 'forty years. cBut re cently het had. tried it - and was: de- ighted. '-Hesaid:5'." :;"- . "There is no more harm in a'" pipe "than there is in a cup of tea. You. may poison vourself by drinking too much green tea, and kill yourself by eating too many beef steaks. For my own part I consider ; that tobacco, in moderation, is a sweetener aad equalizer of the temper." . . v . . There are hundreds of men who have lived to eighty or even ninety or . more who nsed tobacco arid drank strong ; coffee all their lives. We knew one old man in Halifax, f Mr. Cullom, who died at 96 years land used tobacco in great excess. from his fourteenth year, as. he told us, with the exception of only , three weeks. There is no doubt that to bacco is very .injurious to many con stitutions. But there are millions who use it with impunity. , , We knew - v . J -1! of one pale-faced, dirt-eating looking.! Virginian from the Eastern Shore who made rnddy and heahhy by chewing tobacco and swallowing: the amber. Fact. : Gov, Cameron, of Virginia, was asked as to the fairness of elections in his State. He admits that the elec tion last fall "was, as a rule, freely and fairly conducted." But not con tent to stop with this, he goes on to say that he cannot predict how it will be in November. He thus leaves the impression that there is a probability of its not being "free and fair." The Washington Post administers a mild reproof for not being more candid in his statement. and says: "That the election was, as a rule, freely and fairly conducted, he knows as well as can be, and all his information goes to sub stantiate the statement that not only were the Presidential and preceding elections freely and fairly conducted, but were peace able, orderly and honest as anywhere. Now that he is out of the race and should be above nartisanBhiD. he mieht have said a little more to sustain' the deservedly good reputation of his native State. But there is no justification or excuse for. the last clause of his letter." The effort to injure Attorney Gen eral Garland by, gross misrepresenta tion is quite like the New York Tri bnne and altogether worthy of that disreputable sheet. It charges him with abusing his high office for sor- did, selfish ends. The whole charge has been squarely denied by Mr. Garland. He is incapable of doing any thing that is not fair, honorable and above board. THE PERIODICALS. The Century Magazine for October has its usual variety of fine engravings and reading matter. It is to a considerable ex tent a Grant number, much space being devoted to reminiscences, &c, of him. Among other papers that are illustrated are Lieutenant Scliwatka's second and conclu ding paper on his explorations in Alaska; Mrs. Lizzie W. Champney's description of The Haunts of American Artists," pro usely illustrated with pictures of country studios; and Mr. Howells's "Tuscan Cities," illustrated with numerous etchings by PannelL Brander Matthews contributes the Bhort story of the number, which is called "Love at First Sight;" the serial is the ninth part of Henry James's "Boslo- nians." There are many other articles, long and short " Price $4 a year. The Eclectic Magazine for October has a rich and instructive table. It is strange that this unrivalled . monthly is not more sought after in Wilmington. It has no il lustrations, but it gives you the cream of the British periodical publications.

Charlotte Observer. It U a Berious matter, and great must have been the provocation when people living in a land where the law presumably prevails deliberately take from jail and strangle' four human beings to death, and one or them a woman. . It is not only a serious, but a fearful matter. This spirit may be condemned: cool head ed, law-abiding people may deplore and protest against it, but it will break out now and then, here and elsewhere, until some system be de vised for the speedy trial and speedy punishment of people who commit crimes which shock humanity, and I of that atrocious nature that not only merit swift punishment but awaken a spirit for vengeance that spurns law and stops not to reason. It is that species of wild justice which seeks the end regardless of ' the means. " " Raleigh News-Observer. The quadruple lynching in Chat ham county was an occurrence very much to he deplored as an outrage upon our system of law. It will be condemned unhesitatingly by the public opinion of the State. It was not unexpected and it should have been provided against. . . No community can afford to permit any overriding of the law of the land. The safety of society demands the punishment of offenses against it ac cording to legal process only. To any other course there can be no end save in the direct confusion and the greatest hurt to every interest. i We must seek in every. way to pre vent such outrages as that of yester day, but we must also make otrr-le gal methods as far as possible swift and sure. - There should be no pos sibility of escape for criminals from the hands of the law, and punishmpnt for proven crime should be prompt and invariable. NEW YORK MUGWUMPS, 7c t .

'. " ; scarcely had me hius along me a.ue- ghany ceased to reverberate the tones of the explosion wnen me rrenziea, ingatenea wives, mothers and children began to rush: upon the scene and peer anxiously into the faces of the gasping, dying men; seeking to Identify their loved ones, or inquiring in agonized terms If they, had .escaped."

The cries and groans of the parboiled men would occasionally rise above the women's voices. It was an awinl scene, and me physicians who arrived at 'this time said they were almost unnerved at the sight and in the presence of so much human suffer ing, physical "and mental. The injured were f ou nd lying in all positions. Some of them were so far away from the battery that it seemed impossible that . they could have been injured by the explosion. The large number or boys hurt is ac counted for by the fact that they were em ployed to handle the hoop iron, which was rolled in the mill nearest the boilers. It was fully twenty minutes after the explo sion before a boy, Frank Murray, was taken out from under the truck where he was blown. ' In addition to being scalded he was terribly crushed by the weight of iron mat was piled on top. of him. Jas Cattoe and Frank Martin suffered most from escaping steam.

Those most seriously injured were taken to the hospital, while the others were removed to their horx.es.

Exploit of Toans Dick Tnrplo A Stage Coacn Stopped and the mall Bags Rifled by an Eighteen Year Old Boy. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Galveston, October 2. A special to the News, from Dallas, says: J. Kane and Jno, Cormock, citizens of Lampasas, who were passengers on the stage from San Angelo to Abaline, give the following account of a daring robbery sixteen miles east of Run- nells. A smooth faced boy, about eighteen years or age, met and passed the stage, He wore a loose blue flannel shirt, and his trousers were stuck in his boots. He car ried a Winchester rifle and a six shooter. After the stage passed him he turned and demanded a halt The driver whipped up his team, and an exciting race for half a mile ensued, before the stage was over hauled by me highwayman, who demand ed the mail sacks, at the same time saying he did not care to disturb me passengers, six in number, in cluding a lady. The mail sacks were delivered to him, when he carried mem two hundred yards out on me prairie and lei surely appropriated what he wanted. While this scene was being enacted the stage from Abaline for San Angelo came up with seven male passengers. - Weapons were called for. and a man who claimed to be. a . ranger en route to Runnels, loaded his pistol, buckled on his belt and held himself in readiness to repel any attack that might be made on the stage. The robber, however, after satisfy ing himself, rode off, leaving the mail bags on me prairie. Officers are now in hot pursuit of him. He is supposed to be the same highwayman who robbed me mail between Cisco and Crownwood a few days ago. FOREIGN. Servla Demanding an Extension of V - Territory. " j IBr Cable to the Mornmc Star.
