"GIVE US A REST."
The case of those protection organs
that claim the business revival has
come through the Dingley law is very
much like that of the man whocame
down from the joist to tell how "me
and Betsy killed the b'ar." As a
plain matter of fact, the whole Repub
lican administration was up a tree un
til the misfortunes of others created a
diversion in its favor and allowed it
to descend. It should defer its claims
for glory until the ridiculous figure it
cut while it was up has passed from
the public mind. Can any sane man
fail to that dollar wheat could no
more come through the Dingley bill
than "all the king's horses" could
pull up a well? The tariff is not and
can never be, in its benefits, more than
local. It helps, simply and solely, the
man protected. It has not now and
has never had the opinion of one sin
gle political economist of respectable
reputation, in this country or else
where, to support it. It will start up
a few protected industries, here and
there; add many millions to incomes
already quite large enough; flush a
few New England manufacturing towns
with a hectic prosperity; tax 'the great
majority for the benefit of a few; but
not one iota can it ever contribute to
the commonweal of the many.
It is hard to feel grateful to a real
benefactor when he continually boasts
himself such; the man or party that
claims to be a benefactor when he is
not, only excites weariness and dis
gust. The Republican party is begin
ning to add to its many virtues the
last and consummate one of being the
most gigantic and all perforating bore
iV n f 1-.nn Afl ? A ,1 11.1. - 1
xuaiu iao auuuwu seusi ouj people in
modern times. The only ' reply that
all this self-gratulation is worthy of
is the old slang phrase: "Oh, give us
a rest."
It is pleasant to know that the Bri
ton has recovered his spinal column at
last and, speaking through Premier
Salisbury, has declared that Graeco
Turkish affair must - be settled and
Thessaly must be given up. Turkey
will yield, of course, as the insolent
always do when faced by an equal or
superior.
The dispensers of pensions should
now pause while an admiring public
applauds. They have at last refused
a pension. It is true the man, whose
family applied, was killed in a drunk
en brawl. But they did actually re
fuse the pension. This grand stand
play should be properly rewarded.
That party of poets who sat down
to a Chinese dinner in New York the
other day, and attempted to use chop
sticks for the first time, can appreciate
the difficulties of the luckless reader
who has been driven to seek a mental
dinner in a, volume of their verse.
The authorities are having the de
bris cleared from the lot on South
Elm to which attention was called in
Friday's Telegram. That is the
proper move.
The band will probably play "Put
me off at Buffalo" when the President
arrives there tomorrow.
What can be wrong with the Chica
go Times-Herald? Why does not Mr.
Kohlsaat speakout in his high-almigh-tiness
tone and brand the citizens of
Chicago as irredeemable barbarians
because a man has been lynched there?
It took the mayor and all the police
force of Albany to keep a mob from
hanging Blake, the abductor; they had
to be scared from the patrol wagon
with drawn revolvers. Have the
northern papers commented upon these
evidences of lawlessness? Possibly;
but we have been unable to find them.
The south has been abused and reviled
for twenty years for just such offences
against law and order. When they oc
cur at the very doors of those papers
that have been most mouthy in this
respect, thev are passed over in silence.
Lynching is to be condemned here or
elsewhere; but we call attention to the
fact that it Is the southern press only
that has done this. It is time that it
was being noted that the southerner is
more obedient to the law than tha
northener; it is equally true that he is,
despite contrary assertions, more
liberal and just, less narrow and less
prejudiced than his northern brother.
This attitude of the northern press has
done us a vast deal of harm in the
past, by keeping away from us men
who would have been of great benefit
in aiding our industrial advancement.
It is useless to expect aught else for
the average northern editor believes
himself infallible.
General Nelson A. Miles' report
of his military travels in Europe to
Secretary Alger, reads like a letter
that Alice writes to papa, in the Sun
day school story, when she hasT gone
to visit, for the first time, Uncle John
in the great city. j
. IS IT due to our excellent sanitation
that our physicians have not yet re
ported a case of Klondyke fever?
DOTS FROM EDITORIAL QUILLS.
t
Ben Tillman is to deliver an address
in New York on "Democratic Duty.'
He ought to follow that up with a pa
per before the Philological institute
on the Babylonian Cuneiform inscrip
tions. He knows as much about one
as the other. Atlanta Journal.
The columns of the Gazette are open
to short letters from Senator Pritch-
ard and represenative Pearson to ex
plain to a too confiding constituency
the misunderstanding between them and
Mr. McKiriley as to the diameter and
and circumference of the civil service
law. Asheville Gazette.
The Republican press is trying to
give William McKinley the glory for
instead of attributing it to God. It's
a way they have. If the Republicans
don't get the people down to hard
tack it will be a providential inter
ference. Jonesboro Progress.
Pension getting seems to be the chief
object of the Grand Army of the Re
public. Its original motive was good,
but, judging from some of its acts and
the utterances of many of its members.
it is fast degenerating into a grand
army of strife breeding beggars for
pensions. Tarboro Southerner.
When the Count of Turin returned
to Rome after puncturing Prince
Henri a couple times, the populace of
that' burg went wild with rejoicing,
reminding us very much of Boston-s
greeting to J. L. S. when in his hal
cyon days he sent some other bruiser
to grass and returned to - receive the
plaudits "of his admiring fellow-
citizens. Wilmington Star.
Should a newspaper that is intend
ed for circulation in homes and is
made to read by the family circle
print the disgusting details of a re
volting crime? Even if the details
were in evidence in a court trial, have
they any place in print? It is time a
protest was made against the nublea-
tion of the details of monstrous crime
for, whether the pubication is throue-h
inadvertence or to bring public con
demnation upon the criminal, it is de
moralizing and disgusting. Charlotte
JMews.
General Bradley T. Johnson has it.
just right in what he savs nhmit- t,
proposition to have the Grand Armv
tiie xxepuDiic meet in Richmond
next year. It means the whooping up
of a crowd and the getting in of the
cash. Thehandshaking and all the rest
of it are pure bosh, as the General
says. The late soldiers of the Union
and the Confederacy who fought' each
Other on principal doubtless have
very sincere respect for each other,
but the gushing, in each section, over
