THI'RSDAY, DECEMBER 5. 1889.
THE I'RHSHIKNT'S ME!MVF.,
Our readers will be able to form then
own judgments upon tlie opinions am'
policy as shadowed forth in the salient
points which we presented in yesterday'
issue. We shall therefore have liotliinf:
to say about those topics which an in
separably connected with the adminis
tration of the affairs of a great eountrv
involving a general policy common ti
both parties. We confess to some sur
prise when we came to Mr. Harrison'
views on the tariff, and his admission o
the necessity)!' a revision of the law
which shape and regulate it. We n
member the inllcxible purpose set fort!
in the Chicago platform, upon which Mr
Harrison was elected, to make no con
cession whatever, and toadhtre rigidb
to the strictest dogmas of protection. Oi
that idea the last presidential comes:
was fought, and, by the lavish contribu
tions of the protectionists, won. Ant
yet it now appears that Mr. ClevelatH
and the democratic party were right
and Mr. Harrison and his party wrong
The least departure from the strict lettet
of the Chicago platform, adhered ton
the campaign with defiant tenacity, is ;
concession to a necessity and a demant
made by the democrats which is fair ap
proach to the eft'accnient of all party di
tinctions on this important question
Mr. Marrison has been taught by tin
lessons of the election in the hitherti
high tariff States that theories are no'
sustained by facts, and personal am
general interests are more imperativi
than party loyalty. The time is comini
whem democratic wisdom will be vinili
eated. We are selfish enough to hopt
the vindication will come through demo
cratic hands; for on them was the labo
of overturnini: the heretical doctrine ol ;
needlessly high protective tarilT. and it
them should fall the rewards of victory
In connection with the tarilT, Mr. Hat
rison directs attention to the surplus.
democratic President could not mor
forcibly set forth the truth, "that tht
presence ol so large a surplus in the pul.
lie vaults is a disturbing element in th
conduct of public business." "Thanl
thee, Jew," for that admission. It i
what the democratic party has con
ten eil for all along. They have pointei
out the high tarilT, conjoined with the in
ternal revenue, as the sources from whici
the surplus was gathered, ami they havt
pointed out the disturbance of privatt
business by the withdrawal from the peo
ple the circulation so indispensable tt
profitable business, and its idle autl dan
gerous accumulation in the public vaults
an exhaustion ol the fountains of legitt
mate prosperity, and an enormous tutu
of evil, possibly a menace to liberty ant
to public virtue.
The tarilT reforms and the reduction o
the surplus, necessarily go hand in hand,
both good fundamental democratic doc
trines. Muniment rcrilns ct prevnlubit.
even possibly in Mr. Harrison's dav
His defences are weakened, and he is dis
trustful of t lie strong hold of his party.
On the subject ol education, we art
pleased to see that Mr. Harrison makct
no allusion to the Blair bill, which was
indirectly associated with the mainte
nance of a high tarilT, and the penna
nency of a good lat surplus. The sugges
tion of Mr. Harrison involves a chnngt
of a grant of lauds to a direct grant o
money from the public. That wouh
mean, ot course, an unconditiona.
grant, a very different thing from tht
qualified aid through the proposed I"ah
bill.
We regret to see that Mr. H. risoi
could not conclude a message otherwist
abounding in suggestions to be resiect
fully considered without inserting in tht
tail of it the sting of the sectional parti
san. In a dignified State paper, the au
thentic utterance to the world of tin
actual condition of the I'nited States
dignity is lost and credence withdrawr.
when the vitux.-ration of party sheets
the inflammatory assertions ot party
speakers, the licentious mendacity o
party hacks are the foundation and au
thority for a characterization of South
eru affairs of such grave injustice, wrong
and oppression, as to suggest the appli
cation of unconstitutional methods ol
redress. The assumptions of Mr. Harri
son are those ot a fanatic partisan,
not those ot a statesman, much Its
those of a President ot the I'nited States,
What may be the outcome of the elec
tion of the Kev. Mr. Milburn as chaplain
of the house remains to be determined.
It may be that his election was due tt
generous impulse excited first by the
physical infirmity of the candidate, or
the consideration that an office so sacred
should not be contaminated with politics.
and that the ability and the piety ot Mr.
Milburn had already had full satisfactory
exemplification. Itis true that partisan
ship has often entered fully enough into
such contests and always to the glory ot
God or the good of man ; and this leads
to another possible solution of an appar
ently generous action. The choice of a
chaplain was determined like all other
nominations in caucus. When therefore
Mr. Cheadle, a republican, moved the
substitution of Mr. Milburn for the cau
cus nominee, it was an open act of bolt
ing. Was that the entering wedge of
disorganization in the party? Is that
the indication of an independence which
refuses hereafter to sail by chart ? Many
republicans bold seats in the bouse dec-
ted on party platforms of principles
which recent elections in some States
prove no longer to hold good. If these
are signs of internal party troubles, let
the democrats be on the alert wisely to
profit by them. We are satislied that a
very large majority of the white vote of
the country is with the d-'nocrats; and
"the balance of party" vou- is not so
sure as it was. Let our party be wise,
warv and eonrnceons.
The Charleston World gave us recently
the plan of Dr. Myden, a negro we give
him his race title to distinguish him from
ex-Ministcr Taylor, who, Dr. Myden
says, is neither a white man nor a negro
to solve the negro problem by tacili
.ating the emigration of the Southern ne
groes. Dr. Myden gives very glowing ac
t.'ounts of the health, fertility and general
tdvantagesof Liberia and other points
in the African coast to which he would
lireet emigration. He says it is a good
and for the negro or the white man, but
is for the mulattoes, of whom ex-Minis-er
Taylor is one, he says thev could not
ive there, for they broke out in ulcers i n
he body and contracted fevers. Dr. II.
ees in Africa a paradise for the negro.
Taylor on the other hand speaks of Li
beria as "that black laud of snakes, ceti
iiedcs, fever, miasma, ignorance, pov
erty, superstition and death."
We have been hearing of emigration to
Liberia all our lives; we have beer
.vatching the growth of that republic, or
rather deiendency, for many years.
There is nothing in the retrospect to cn
ourage any brighter hope for the future,
mil we think the negro will stay in his
iwu country, on his own continent, pos
iblv drift slowlv down towards Mexico.
Vs for the South Carolina negroes, the
spectre of the banpie Azorw ill keep thent

The average of the corn crop in North

hirs per acre to labor, interest on

and does better than that. All of it
ould do better, and it is a reproach to
utelligenee that, except as against flooti
ir drought or like casualties, all do not
lo better. We know here in Western
orth Carolina the fanners do do better.
!ut they could do better still. The lati
Nicholas W. Woodfm once here in Ashe
.'ille made I'Mi bushels to the acre. His
vas intensive fanning, and he was
aughed at by his less industrious neigh
lots for his pains. Hut he was rinht.
ivery acre should be put under tht
iitensive system, tewer of them, ol
ourse, than under tin trust-to
'rovitlence systems. It is the mos:
rolitable in tlie end. And we refer to
he subject because we see it stated on
he highest authority that a Marlboro.

Among the recent deaths in this Statt
s that of General Collett Lcaventhorpe,
vhich occurred recently ill Yadkin Val
ey. He was a gentleman of English
lirth, and came to this State a good
nany years before the war, engaged in
ninitig, in Rutherford county we believe,
.le was a mail of genial nature and ot
me culture, and became well known and
topular, and was an enthusiastic South
rner. He was in command of the firs l
afterwards the eleventh regiment, and
listinguished himself by skill and cour
ige. He was wounded and captured at
lettysburg. He was about 73 years old
it the time of his death.
The senate was surprisetl yesterday by
he appointment ol Judge Hrewer. ol
Kansas, as Associate Justice of the l'ni
ed Stales Supreme court. It had been
ippiehcndcd. or perhaps rather expected,
.hat the President would appoint his old
.aw partner Miller. The new Justice is a
present I'nited States Circuit Judge; but
.ve know little of his character or tual
lications. Durham's street railway has hud rather
i short run. It was sold the other day

Stanley, the African explorer, is not an
