The Morning Star. By WILLIAM O. BERNARD, WILMINGTON, N. C. EVENING EDITION. Thursday, March 8, 6 P. M. THE STJGAK TAX. The tax on sugar is about the only one that a fair trader could well tolerate upon necessaries and be cause it is strictly a tax for revenue. The tax goes into the treasury and not into the pockets of monopolists and trmsts. This is so. There is strong foreign competition. There is no article taxed under the Tariff that is so remunerative to the Gov ernment, and that is so strictly and entirely one for revenue. In no sense is the sugar tax one for pro tection. It is, as we have said, one for revenue only. It benefits the Louisiana planter it is true, but be cause it is impossible to levy a tax for revenue without favoring the rival interests in this country. The able New, Orleans States takes the right and liberal view when it says: "It yields nearly sixty millions of re- venue and affords an insignificant fraction of protectioo. It is not a tax, the benefits of which accrue to a few rich and power ful corporations, and the expenses of which are borne by the consumer. It is a tax which goes bodily into the people's treasu ry, and which is employed directly for their benefit in the maintenance cf the government. It is, in short, a tax" which tha revenue reformers have no interest in abolishing; which, io fact, they can not afford to dispense with, and which the Protectionists have no interest, quite the ; contrary, in perpetuating,." But the Louisiana planters, or many of them, do not regard the tax in the true light. They think it is a great protection to them and that without the tax their sugar interests would languish. Hence, many of them are with the Republicans and desire to retain the tax in fall, v The bill now before the Congress . proposes to reduce the tax. It is no : doubt a concession to the Republi cans who are clamoring,-not for re- daction, but for an entire wiping out : of the sugar tax. If it was a pro tective tax that is if the fifty or sixty millions went for the most part into the pockets of Monopoly, the -Stab would say let it go let it be abolished. But it is really the one .,- taxof which the Government gets nearly all of it. ; Now what will be the effect of the redaction as is proposed in the new out j win it relieve tha : and give them cheaper sugars? It f would seem sol bnt tK .m. -kt. York Times, an Independent Repub uuau paper, tases another vi t says : "We have reason t.n KuD- changes would wl 7"'"" relief to whinh the, yJZ ivTit' u munons of dollars SiTatTrffK. ot th 'United States to "j ougar Trust." ti' -1 TflR reggnn r . is one well worth thinking over. It says : f; ,"At present the entire supply of sugar forconsumptionTa this country romti- -if. I?nner- They buy the raw su gar, which are brcfaght from Cuba 'ad J elsewhere! and prepare them for use. r The uuues on reunea sugars, or ; upon torcigu sugars that might go into consumption without passing through the refiners' fac tory are prohibitory, it is plain mat a re duction of the dmliea on raw sugars alone would simply deprive the Treasury ; of a certain amount of revenue which could be taken by the Trust if it shbuld maintain unchanged the price of its products. If such a reduction were accompanied by a reduction of the duties on the high grades and the refined sugars which would leave these duties still prohibitory, the effect would be the same." It is proposed by the bill to reduce the tax on raw sugars about a cent a pound. The Times estimated that by this $11,000,000 would be taken from the revenues of the Govern ment. Reductions are proposed on sugars of different grades. The bill will not give the relief proposed it is thought. The -tax left on the high grades is prohibitory. So say those best qualified to know, men in the sugar business. So if this view is correct the production will take eleven million dollars from the Treas ury and yet itmay not make sugars cheaper. It should be remembered that sev eral European nations are producing immense quantities of sugar, but by the bounty system. In one year they have expended nearly or quite fifty million dollars in producing su gar. For this outlay they have got nothing in return. Will they keep up the bounties? Can they afford to make such an annual outlay without return ? If they should cease to be stow the bounties, then European su gars would be so costly to the pro ducers that they could not oompete with sugars produced in other coun tries at less price. So it is not im probable that sugars can be produced in Louisiana even with the proposed 20 per cent, reduction and with profit to the planters. ANOTHER CRITICISM UPON LA NIER. It really gratifies us to see the poe try of Sidney Lacier so much stu died and criticised in the North by men of talents and learning. We have already called attention to two recent critical discussions of our wonderfully endowed Southron. In the American, of Philadelphia, an able, scholarly political and literary weekly edited by Prof. Thompson, of the University of Pennsylvania, there is a thoughtful, 6trong, felici tous discussion of Lanier which is worth reading. It is exceedingly well done and shows taste, discrimi nation and insight. While able pens in the North are elaborately ex amining the gifts and works of the great genius of Georgia, no compe tent hand has essayed the task in the South. We suspect that Lanier's poetry and prose works are really but little k nown in the South. The reading people read something else, and talk of Lanier with a sort of pride because he is read and praised in the literary circles in the North and to some extent in England. But as a matter of fact, but few South erners have read his two volumes of prose essays and his volume of verse, The writer of this fine critique on Lanier in the American is Mr. Harri son S. Morris. The whole perform ance is cleverly done. We would see this true genius better understood and appreciated at home, and this is our excuse for referring again to him so soon after a long editorial discus sion of his eifts and works. We must copy a paragraph or so from the paper in the American. The critic says "Sidney Lanier was one who strove to express beauty first and above all else, and he therefore takes a commanding place amongst the artists in verse. It is venture some at this day to say what that place will be m tne jears to corns. To many thought' ful readers it would seem that Lanier will hereafter be crowned as one of the great poets of our era. His ideal was high, his life was beautiful, and his art, though be died in its formative period, was strong and original. That be fell snort of his nigh ideal is very true true in the sense that none woo dream ever reach a fulfilment of their dreams; true in a more personal sense. that he could not be one of the great kings of song. But that he deserves a high place among those who nave written lasting poe try is seen in his perception of the axiom that the aim of art is the production of oeauty, not directly the conveyance of truth It is noticeable that the Northern writers do not mince their words of commendation, They do not hesitate to claim for him merits that belong to the established poets. They re cognize the lofty ideals, the masterly art, the perfect purity, the sweetness and light of his noble and winsome I ver8e an they do not refuse to in- I sutute comparisons witn tne men I who have produced enduring works.

If some enterprising bookseller would order a few copies of Lanier's entire works he might find pur chasers. - A GREAT RIfiBTlNG. The famous revivalist Moody has had a great meeting at Louisville. The preparations for his arrival were extended and costly. A tabernacle was built for the occasion that cost 112,000. It seats 5,000 people, but was far too small. It is said that more than that number of people were turned away on some of the nights. In all it is calculated that 250,000 people heard the Gospel from the great revivalist. The meet ing was protracted for five weeks. People were so anxious to hear Moody that they took lunch with them and held their seats from one service to the next. There were 500 picked singers who led the musio. Mr. Sankey, with assistants conduct ed the music. There have been more than 1000 people added to the Lou isville Churches as a result. All of the Protestant Churches were repre sented. Bishop Penick, of the Epis copal Churcb,attended. The preparations were such as to guarantee a great work of revival. Public expectation was on tip-toe, and the ministers and their helpers were at work in advance of the coming of Moody. It is interesiiog to read of the Louisville work and especially as Wilmington is pre paring for the coming of a Southern revivalist who in his chosen field is doing a grand and imperishable work for God and humanity. The pastors and people of Wilmington are hard at work making straight the way for Mr. Pearson, who is to preach his first sermon on the night of Sunday, the eighteenth of March. Probably there has never been in this town such a general religious seriousness and activity as pervade most of the churches. For weeks nightly ser vices have been held and the people are interested and the believers in Jesus are praying for another Pente cost when a great work of saving shall be perfected. God grant in mercy that the expectations and hopes and prayers of His people may be more than realized and th.it it shall be recorded that thousauds have been added to the churches! WHAT THE BNBfllKS ARK FIGHT ING. The present tax on crockery ar.d glass is enormous. Oa crockery, fca, it is 56.97. It is SO per cent, higher than it wai during tho great wr. Lt is proposed now to reduce the tax some to not more than 43 per cent. average. And yet the Republican Protectionists and Randall fight ibis. It is not enough say these enemies of the people to have a tax of 43 per cent, on the plain crockery used by the laboring classes. That 43 per cent, is some 17 per cent, higher than the tax io the war was. What do you think of men who will advocate such oppression ? What can hone6t Democrats think of Randall and his set ? The duty on window glass h now some 61 per cent, and up ward , ac oording to size. It is proposed to cut down this tax, not remove it. It is proposed to have a great tax upon it a tax that runs from 45 per cent. on glass 10x15 and upward to 66 per cent, on glass above 24x30 inches. The oommon size common window glass is still to be taxed 45 per cent., and yet that is resisted by the Republican-Randall crowd. Shame up on them! We publish to-day a part of a ro port of Capt. W. H. Bixby, of the Engineer Corps, U. S. A., setting foith the. benefits derived already and to be derived hereafter from cer tain river and harbor impiovements in the Corolinas. The figures pre sented are instructive. From an editorial in the Danville Register it appears that there are leading citizens of-Norfolk who are in favor of moving their town into North Carolina that is, to get the State line so changed as to have Nor folk and Portsmouth a part of North Carolina. The Register is pleased to say: "This proposition is startling, truly, but Norfolk & Co. could go much farther and fare worse. North Carolina is a grand and prosperous Btate. and has no Bute debt of consequence to worry, its people and excite its politicians. It has splendid resources and has advertised them well, and Norfolk has no doubt read the advertisements in the papers. Norfolk always has. an eye to business and knows a good situation when she sees it. "We should be very sorry, of course, to see such a splendid city pack up its fine harbor and move away to another State, and yet some people In Virginia would be glad to get rid of Norfolk, strange as It may seam. Richmond and Petersburg have long; aspired to be seaport towns and Wor- ioik nas always stooa m incir wy. North Carolina has about built up Norfolk,, and it -would not object to baviog suoh additions as Norfolk arid Portsmouth could give. CVRRZJST COMMKJiT. Parrot politicians and organs will denounce the bill, of course, as a free trade measure, and it is given out that Btmdall and his faction will not vote for it. Bat a careful study of its provisions will fail to material ize the charge. It has a large free list, and is so far a free trade , meas ure, just as the Dawes Republican bill of 1872 was, and just as the Tariff Commission bill of 1883 was. And it is just the sort of free trade that the great industries of this country stand in most need of. Springfield Republican, Independent Rep. The dispute between Western railway and the Brotherhood of En gineers is in a nut shell, but a dis puted fact preoludes correct outside judgment as to the party in the right. The Brotherhood alleges that classi fied engineers were discharged, as a rule, when their riper experience and tested fidelity entitled them to the highest standard of wages. If that be true, the Brotherhood is.rigbt; the railway direction is wrong. The railroad direction alleges that engin eers were not discharged because of the higher wages which experience and fidelity commanded under the classification. If that, be true, then then the Brotherhood is wrong; the ralway direotion is right. The de mand for uniform wages for engin eers rendering the same servioe, re gardless of experience and tested fidelity, is utterly inexcusable as a naked proposition; but it is possible to make it not only excusable but justifiable, if ripe experience and tested fidelity are made the ground of dismissal. Phil. Times. For the purpose of conciliat ing certain hostile elements, Mr. Sherman has been explaining things. He has written a letter in which he tries to show that his "New South" speech, delivered at Nashville some months ago, and the bloody shirt oration delivered by him a few days later in Springfield, IUm., were bar monious, or not inconsistent. If we understand the Senator and we bonefttly try to do so he means to say that at Nashville be stood with hi back to the past, his face to the future, and spoke of the South that is to be; but at Springfield he about faced, so as to stand with his back to the future, bis face to the past and spoke of the South that had been. In other words, it was Grady's South in Tennessee, and Halstead'a South in Illinois. Mr. Sherman lacks the dexterity reqnired for artful dodging. His explanation fails to explain. Io thin matter, as in many others, Mr. Sherman's record is extremely iooou pintent. Washington Post, Dem River ! Harbor Impro vmnu. .3 13 S8?I !5 2 B c O o a - D O a t- as a a o a ii a "5 m C flt?
