ABSURD DEMANDS.
The Star does not endorse the
Senate tariff bill. It did not endorse
the House bill, which was a better
bill than the Senate bill, but iif it
comes to a question of the Senate bill
or none at all, it believes it is the
part of wisdom and common sense to
tike the Senate bill, as far as it may
be from our desires or expectations
It does not believe in the hot brained
demand for the House bill, or none
at all. The Senate bill does not
come up to the expectation of the
tariff reformers, the men who have
been battling for years for tariff rev
form, but if they could be satisfied
with the Wilson bill (which thous
ands of them were not), they can go
a little further on the compromise
line and try to be satisfied with the
Senate bill if they can get no better.
We have hopes that this may be
put in more acceptable shape before
it comes but of the hands of the
Conference committees, but if this
cannot be done it would be the sheer
est tolly to reject it and go before
the people after all this long and
anxious laboring without any bill. It
would be a confession that the Dem
ocratic party is not equal to the task
of formulating and passing a tariff
bill. If we fail to pass one now with
what assurance can" we go before the
people in the coming Congressional
elections and say that we will pass
one? If we said so what assurance
would the people have that we could
do it? or what confidence, after one
failure, would they have in our prom
ises. They who declare that no bill
would be preferable to the Senate
bill talk as if the Democratic party
had a sure thing on the Government
for an indefinite period, and' that if
the present bill be rejected because
the Senate would not yield to the
House and give us the Wilsor bill or
something very near it the people
will repudiate the Senators who stand
in the way and elect successors to
them who will be more in accord
with Democratic ideas on the tariff
question. This is an assumption
in the first place, a mere gratuitous
assumption, which has nothing
stronger than mere opinion based on
the wish to stand upon.; There is no
evidence that the so-called "conser
vative" Senators are at variance with
the people of their States or that
;hey would not be returned if they
were candidates for re-election.
But allowing, for the sake of argu
ment, that this may be so, what as
surance have we that the next House
of Representatives will be Demo
cratic ? It may be Republican. It
is to be hoped that it will not be, but
possibly it may be. To go before the
people, as sorely disappointed as they
will be after this long contest, with
out a tariff will be a very good way
to defeat Democrats and send Re
publicans in their places. If the next
House of Representatives should be
Republican that will be the end of
tariff legislation for some time to
come whatever the political com
plexion of the Senate may be, and
then the people may continue to
sweat (under the McKinley bill, as
they have been doing since 1890.
the assumption that if we have no
tariff bill at all we will when the I
next Congress meets and the people of
have had a whack at the Senators I to
who have not toed the mark,
have a better one and such a one
as the Democratic party has a right to
expect is an assumption based more
on hope than on any tangible indica-
tion or evidence. The gentlemen who
entertain it may find themselves very
sadly disappointed, and may then
wish they had shown more discre
tion, and made the best oi tne con
ditions that confronted them.
The Senate bill is. not such a bill
as the tariff reformers of the country
wanted or had a right to expect, but
it makes an average reduction of
about thirty-two per cent, on the
McKinley bill. Isn't that worth tak
ing and Holding until we can ao
better? It gives the Sugar Trust
too much, it is true, but not near as
much as the McKinley bill gave it.
It leaves a duty on coal and
iron, but a little over half the duty
under the McKinley bill. With a
few minor exceptions there is a
material reduction all along the
line, which, according tof the esti
mates of some, will reduce the
tribute consumers pay to the pro
tected manufacturers under the Mc
Kinley bill $750,000,000 a year.
Isn't that worth taking and holding,
while we move on and continue the
reductions in future where the duties
are too high, and do it leisurely and
piecemeal without disturbing busi-
ness generally by wholesale tariff
agitation? This, it seems to us, is
the sensible and business-like course
to pursue, and far better than the
absurd demand to kill all tariff legis
lation if we can't get just what we
want
MXEfOR MSHTI09.
The Populist Convention which
met in RaleighJWednesday wasn't so
much of a Populist affair after all,
for it nominated for Judges two Re
publicans and two Democrats, and
contented itself with the nomination
of a Populist for f State Treasurer.
The nomination o the two Republi
cans for Judges was doubtless the re
sult of the conferences held pre
vious to the meeting of the Conven
tion, between certain Populist and
Republican party managers. This
means, of course, that the Republi
can faction which favored this fuse
will support it at the polls, and this
is probably an indication of further
fusions on Congressional and Legis
lative candidates. The most notable
event of the Convention was the
dropping from the platform of the
sub-treasury plank, one of the con
ditional demands upon which the
party made its tight in previous
campaigns, and which was laid down
as a test of party fealty. The Gov
ernment ownership of railroads, &c,
will go next and then about all there
was in the Populist party to give it
individuality will be taken out of it
and there will be no special reason
why it should pretend to have a
living existence, unless itjlives simply
for the purpose ot "denouncing the
old parties."
St
President Debs is quoted assay
ing that he "will never again be con
nected with a strike, for he is satis
fied that the sentiment of the coun
try is against them, and that the
military power of the country will be
invoked to suppress them." If the
sentiment of the country had not
been against them the rash and in
sane course pursued by Debs and his
associates in the late strike would
have made it so, for in the effort to
punish the Pullman Car Company
and the railroads which hauled Pull
man cars he made war on
the farmer, the merchant, the
manufacturer and thousands upon
thousands of people who had noth
ing whatever to do with the cause of
the trouble botween Pullman and his
employes and Debs and the railroads.
But all 'these were made to suffer in
consequence of the wild and reckless
course pursued by Debs and his as
sociates. If he and his followers
I and others who have been advocat-
ing strikes as a means of remedying
wrongs have learned better and will
henceforth resort to more orderly
and defensible methods the late
strike will not have been without its
good results.
Japan having formally declared
war against China, the dogs of war
wnl now be let loose m earnest,
without any further ceremony, and
Russia, England and France will
keep their eyes open to see where
they can make anything as the
melee progresses. Thisi country is
interested only in so far as our corn-
I merce may be affected by the war,
but its sympathies, as far as they go
on either side, incline towards the
Japanese, who were not anxious for
war, and were really forced into it
by China. The American people ad-
mire pluck, and they admire the
spirit of a country with d8,ouu,ow
people throwing down the gauntlet
a country with 400,000,000, to a
country which ought to overrun
Corea and drive the Japanese out of
it within six months if it bad the
right kind of armies, under compe
tent commanders. The fact that
there are European and American
officers in both Japanese and Chinese
Armies may possibly infuse some
better fighting spirit into both. If
left to these two nations to fight it
out the probabilities are that the Chi
nese with their hundreds of millions
to draw from would eventually tri-
umpfa, but it is more than possible
that if it continues long England and
Russia and possibly France may
be
dragged into it.
CURRENT COMMENT.
From various parts of the I
State come renorts that the con
tinued wet weather is doing great
damage to cotton. Still, among
cotton men, the impression prevails
that the croD soon to be harvested
will be much larger than the crop of
last year. Savannah News, Dem.
The first great necessity of
the country is to have the tariff issue
settled. The McKinley bill, with all
its protection to monopoly and exor
bitant exactions upon the necessaries
of 'business and of life, would be
better than the condition of uncer
tainty that must prevail if tariff leg
islation shall be defeated. Phil.
Times, Ind.
The Democratic party meant
to declare in 1892 that it had done
forever with straddling the tariff
issue. Mr. Gorman's bludgeon may
intimidate a weak Senate and pos
sibly also a disgusted House, con
vinced that the game is not worth
the candle, but it will not force the
party back into the uncomfortable,
undignified and now impossible po
sition. Louircille Courier- Journal,
Dem.
It is impossible to keep count
of all the former Kolb men Who are
announced in the country press as
forsaking Kolb and coming back to
the Democratic fold. Ever since
these people obtained what they
recognized as authentic information
of Captain Kolb's sale to the Repub
licans, there has been a "landslide"
in the direction of the Democracy
and Colonel Oates. Mobile ' Register,
Dem.
A STRONG TESTIMONIAL.
What a Leading Educator Thinks of tho
American Encyclopaedic Dictionary.
The high standing of Capt. Washing
ton Catlett, Principal of the Cape Fear
Academy, both as a scholar and an edu
cator, gives a real value to the annexed
testimonial:
Wilmington, April 11, 1894.
Mr. W. H. Bernard :
Dear Sir: I have examined very
carefully the 1st Part of the American
Encyclopaedic Dictionary. I am really
surprised at the excellence of the work,
both for its intrinsic merit and its price.
I have made a parallel comparison with
Webster's Unabrideed: and with the
Century, published also in parts, costing
me $8.50 per volume; or. complete, $60.
I find the American Encyclopaedic
Dictionary superior In many respects to
Webster's Unabridged, and for genera
purposes equal to the Century.
The type is distinct and full, the illus
trations numerous, the derivation of
words scholarly and accurate, the defini
tions exceedingly complete and verified
by many extracts from leading modern
authors, the encyclopaedic information
very full, the diacritical marks plain,
with prominent equivalents at bottom of
each page.
I unhesitatingly endorse the First Part
of this Dictionary as meeting the require
ments of the scholar and filling the wants
of the general reader and man of busi
ness needing general information in a
compact and reliable presentation. No
one need fear that his money will be
misspent, who invests in this work.
Yours truly,
Washington Catlett.
