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 the troops of the other, is forced and affected.. When it comes to re-union, encampments and the like, each had better shinny on his own side. Char lotte Observer. YU GET A BIG PIECE OP CHUB tobacco for a nickle. OUR LIVE BUSINESS MEN.
