The hopes of the ultra protectionists
that the tariff would not he -tinkered
with" at this session of Congress seem to
be gradually waning. Their hopes that
the reformers would propose radical meas

interests ot the country have already been
blasted. There is scarcely a doubt now
that a tariff bill will be passed by Con
gress, and the exactions ot the monopo
lists materially reduced.
Under the present tariff the average du

European markets, on account of the war
tariff are worth $1 75 in this country. Mr.
Morrison's bill, if it should become a law,
would reduce the tariff to GO per cent, on
woolen manufactures. If the woolen mills
can't compete with Europeau manufac

their favor, they had better shut up shop.

last ten years. If she were disposed to be
neighborly she might send one over to
Washington in the spring, and invite the
President to take a little lislnng excur

The physicians ot Washington complain
that their practice is unprofitable. They
charge that there are a large number of
medical men holding government posi

do a vast amount of free practice, and so
take away the patronage of the profession.
Besides, there are many physicians who
are clerks in the departments who do
regular practice after their otliee hours.
They are ealled “sundown doctors," and
the medical association looks upon them
with anything but favor.
It is more than suspected that the se
cret of Senator Don Cameron’s protracted
visit to Europe at this critical juncture of
nffairs, so far as the Republican party is
concerned, is to rid himself as much as
possible of some entangling alliances iu
which he has become involved. He is un
derstood to be committed to President
Arthur, but it is stated that his sympa
thies are all with Logan, and he is staying
out of the country so that Boss tjuay can
fix up the Pennsylvania delegation to
Chicago in Logan’s interest. If this is
Cameron’s real object he had as well come
home and throw off the mask, for he can
not successfully ride two horses iu that
manner.
Ex-Senator Spencer, it is well known,
has been engaged in mining interests in
partnership with the Secretary of the
Navy, Wm. E. Chandler. Spencer occu
pied a good place on the Northern Pacific
Railroad, and he says Chandler has been
very desirous of avoiding scandals, and
wanted Spencer to resign so as to make
his name less prominent in public affairs.
Spencer then cut about twenty-five slips
criticising Chandler out of different news
papers, and sent them to the Secretary,
with the suggestion that he ought to
resign to avoid scandals. Spencer says
this is the only sharp discussion he ever
had with his partner, and that all other
reports are gross exaggerations. Even
rascals can give each other good advice
sometimes, but it is seldom followed.
Mr. Ileagan’s Defense of His Bill.
Representative Reagan, of Texas, is
having a controversy with the Louise illo
Courier-Journal respecting his interstate
commerce bill, which is attracting some
attention. The House Committee on Com
merce limited the time for hearing the
railroads in opposition to the bill, and the
Courier-Journal sharply criticised the
committee’for its action. That journal
thought that the purpose of the committee
was to deprive the railroads of their right
to be heard, and intimated that the bill
was too important and involved interests
too vast to be hurried through Congress.
It pointed out the bad effects of previous
hasty legislation respecting railroads, and
suggested that until Congress could de
monstrate its ability to forfeit un
earned land grants and compel the
Pacific railroads to comply with
tbeir contracts with the government it
would be wise to hesitate about passing
laws to control the traffic and travel of
the great trunk lines of the country. The
Courier-Journal lurther insisted that as
the railroads were the most largely inter
ested in the hill they ought to have been
given all the time they wanted to present
their side of their case. Mr. Reagan deals
quite exhaustively with the points made
by the Courier-Journal. He shows that
this Inter-State commerce question has
been before Congress for about ten years,
and has been exhaustively argued in each
Congress by the ablest representatives of
the railroads. So much time was given to
the railroads that there was not time in
any Congress for the full consideration of
the bill. In his opinion, if the railroads
were given unlimited time to address the
committee this Congress they would talk
through this and the next session. In other
words, they would defeat the bill by de
laying it in the committee. The argu
ments made this session were the argu
ments previously made. The railroads
had nothing new to say, and, besides,
they had already said far more than the
other vast interests involved in the bill.
With respect to the point that the rail
roads were the most largely interested in
the question at issue, Mr. Regan, in his
letter published last Friday, said:
“Let us see whether they are the most
interested parties in this question. The
whole of the railroads, about ll.>,ooomiles,
represent, including watered stock and
fictitious capital, a little over $6,000,000,-
000. Fairlv capitalized, to-day, it would
not exceed $3,000,000,000, or $3, .‘>00,000,000
in value. There were in the United
States in lsso, 4,008,907 farms, of 5,036,081,-
845 acres. These farms, farming imple
ments, live stock, cost of buildings and
repairing, fences and cost of fertilizers,
value of farm productions sold
or consumed, amount to $14,324,892,33,>.
There were at the same time in the
United States 253,852 manufacturing es
tablishments, with capital stock, amount
of wages paid during the year, value of
material and value of products amount
ing to $12,504,629,141, aggregating $26,-
828,421,470. In this aggregate the vast
products of the mines,the lorests, the fish
eries, our shipping, telegraph, express
and banking interests and others will
swell that aggregate by several billions ot
dollars’ worth. Besides this it is esti
mated that the internal commerce
of the United States amounts to
about $30,000,000,000 a vear. Why was
it assumed that the' railroads are
more interested in the question of
transportation than fifty odd millions of
American people, the owners of all the
billions’ worth above referred to? Let us
see, therefore, what interest the owners
of the $26,000,000,000 worth of the vast
products of the field, the farm, the or
chard. the mines, the manufactories, etc,,
of the United Mates have that are carried
by railroads. The highest interest the
railroads could probably have in these
would not exceed 2 or 3 per cent. The
other 97 or 98 per cent, of the value of all
these articles of transportation over rail
roads belongs to other people than the
railroads, whose interest in this question
bears the proportion to the interest of the
railroads that 97 bears to 2 or 3 per cent.”
These figures are worth preserving. Mr.
Reagan has given this subject more study
than any other man in the country, and
his figures are to be relied on. In dis
cussing the State Commission we have
doubted the advisability of giving a com
mission the right to fix traffic charges.
The right to prevent railroads from mak
ing discriminations, however, is another
matter. The railroads have it in their
power to break down or build up an in
dustry, or to make one man or oue
company prosper at the ex
pense of others. The vast
industrial wealth ot the country is almost
at tiieir mercy. It may be argued that it
is not to the interest of a railroad to ruin
any man's business or to check any in
dustry, and it is not reasonable to suppose
that it would do what is contrary to its in-
terest. To answer this it is only neces
sary to repeat the history of the Standard
Oil Company. It seems that the railroads
did combine to make that company rich
and powerful and enabled it to crush out
its rivals. There are other like histories
that might be repeated. Still, the question
which the Courier-Journal raises remains
unanswered, viz: whether after a law
such a> Mr. Reagan proposes is passed it
can be enforced.
Tlie Flood Sufferers.
It is impossible to estimate the loss of
property, <>r to give any where near a cor
rect idea of the suffering caused by the
great floods along the Ohio river aud its
tributaries. The dispatches represent the
situation of thousands of people as piti
able. Drivep from their homes at a sea
son of the year when the weather in that
section is always inclement, and being in
many instances without sufficient food,
clothing and shelter, their condition is
such as to appeal strongly to charitable
people everywhere. Congress has
appropriated $500,000 for their benefit,
and contributions are being made to aid
them in Northern towns and eities. Sa
vannah has put her hand into her pocket
quite frequently lately for one purpose
aud another. Not long ago hundreds of
her people were rendered homeless by a
great lire and their wants made a big
draft on her charity. But she remembers
that the section now devastated by floods
was kind to her in her great trouble in
1*76, and site is ready to respond to any
call lor help troni the sufferers. Doubt
less some of our citizens who are leaders
in charitable work will take bold of this
matter and give Savannah an opportunity
to help in the relief work.
Our article on “Macon aud Florida
Railroad Lines’’ furnishes our esteemed
contemporary, the Macon Teleijraph and
M' Sxeiujer, the occasion for a column of
matter. We are sorry, however, that our
contemporary has misinterpreted the
spirit and intention of our at tide. If it
had accepted in good faith exactly
what we said, instead of look
ing for a hidden purpose, it
would have had no occasion to com
ment, except, perhaps, to commend
us for our willingness to help on
Macon enterprises. Our contemporary
says that it has some faith in human na
ture. We hope it has enough to believe
that our sole purpose was to inform our
readers respecting the Macon and Florida
railroad enterprises. This is all we
did, except to express the opinion
that, perhaps, a standard gauge
road would l>e more acceptable to the peo
ple of the section of country tributary to
the proposed lines of road. We know
nothing of Plant Investment schemes in
this connection, and don’t kuow that
there are any schemes. We are perfectly
willing that one or both of the proposed
lines shall be built. We hope that we
are not so selfish as to wish to deprive
any section of our State of rail
road facilities because such facilities
might give another journal a little ad
vantage in the matter of time. We hope
to make the Morning News so good a
paper that such an advantage would not
tend to limit its circulation iu the least.
We regret that a hasty conclusion has
led our contemporary into wasting so
much of its valuable space.
It is said that Senator Hoar is going to
take a Boston newspaper correspondent
to New Orleans with his committee to
write up the Copiah county fracas for all
it is worth. Mr. Hoar can be depended
upon to see that the Northern people are
given as few facts and as much fiction as
the testimony will admit.
There has been much talk about under
ground telegraph wires in the cities of
late, and it is strange that no one has
consulted Mr. Blaine as to the best and
cheapest manner of laying them. Blaine’s
underground wires are being pretty well
worked about this time.
Tlie Direction AVe are Drifting.
The action of Congress in appropriating
$300,000 for the sufferers by the floods of
the Ohio river and its tributaries, will
not be criticised. The people are v\ illing
that the national treasury shall he
opened to relieve suffering and want in
any part of the country. The nations
money was freely given to aid the south
when scourged by the yellow lever in 18.8,
and to help feed the people of the Missis
sippi valley during the great floods of 1881.
The money thus spent is well spent.
It goes back to the people
who originally contributed it. But it
must be admitted that these calls on the
national treasury are becoming frequent
and for objects for which no one would
have thought ot asking national aid
twenty-five years ago. New Orleans pro
poses to ask for government aid tor her
world’s centennial cotton exposition.
San Francisco will have a great fair in a
year or two, and expects Congress to
make an appropriation to help her out
in her enterprise. St. Louis says it New
Orleans and San Francisco gets national
help for their expositions she shall ex
pect it. She will get it, ot course, if they
get it. But what is the effect of
this practice now growing up of re
sponding to calls for national help iu dif
ferent parts of the country. Is it not to
wean the people away from the States and
strengthen their affection for the central
government? Is it not to belittle State
power and magnify Federal power.- Ihe
whole tenor of legislation and the de
cisions of the courts since the war has
been to lessen the dignity and importance
ot the States, and increase that of the
Federal government, hut no legislative
act and no judicial decision tends so
much to magnify and glorily the central
government in the estimation of the peo
ple as this giving of money to relieve their
sufferings, and to contribute to their
pleasures. The people are gradually and
unconsciously being taught to look to the
State government for nothing and to the
Federal government for everything. Are
we not becoming a nation with a big “N
whether we want to or not?

It’s a pity, with all your enthusiasm on the

1 Someone writing from New York to a
I.oudon journal says that the fame of the dead
Delmonieos will live as long in New York as
that of Washington or Hawthorne.
Mrs. Gladstone, who is a very homely and
usually a very badly dressed woman, says a
recent London letter, has taken to wearing the
richest clothes and ttie finest diamonds.
The last day that Wendell Phillips spent
out-doors he gave his attention to perfecting
his title to a lot in the cemetery at Milton,
where he expressed a desire to be buried.
Viscount Bkrkhaven, who lias just suc
ceeded to ihe Earldom of Bantry, was for

MR. BREWSTER’S TROUBLES.
The President Anxious to Oust Him
From the Cabinet.
There is an interesting fight, says a
Washington special to the New York
Times, in progress between the President
and the Attorney-General. It has been
going on for some time, but both parties
to the contest have sedluously endeavored
to keep all knowledge of it from the pub
lic. The President has desired for some
time past to get rid of Mr. Brewster, but
he has not dared, and does not dare to ask
for his resignation. The star route prose
cutions have been a veritable shirt ot
Nereus to the President ever since
Guiteau’s bullet accomplished its pur
pose. When the investigation began, and
even after it had made considerable pro
gress. but before Guiteau fired bis fatal
shot, Mr. Arthur did not hesitate to ex
press ireely and rather publicly his oppo
sition to the inquiry 7. He gave expression
to his true sentiments on the subject
when he roundly rated Postmaster Gene
ral James for his efforts to send to the
penitentiary all the men who had con
tributed the most to the success of the
Republican party in 1880. Of course, the
then Vice President spoke hastily and in
auger, or he would not have exaggerated
to this degree. It is trvie, perhaps, that
Dorsey was an important factor in carry
ing Indiana, but he was by no means “all
the men” who contributed to Republican
success in that State or in New York,
Notwithstanding the subsequent pre
tense ot Brady that he secured large con
tributions from star route contractors in
response to the Ilubbell letter, it is sus
ceptible of proof that Brady believed and
hoped that the Democrats would carry
Indiana in October, 1880.
Mrs. Mary V. Green, Wadley. Ga.,
says; “I found relief from neuralgia and
a weak stomach by using Brown’s Iron
Bitters.”

A Positive Cure for Every form of
Skin and Blood Disease, from
Pimples to Scrofula.
nnHOUSANDS of letters in our possession
I repeat ttiis story: I have been a terrible
sufferer for years with Blood and Skin Hu
mors, have been obliged to shun public
places by reason ot my disfiguring hu
mors; have had the best physicians: nave
spent hundreds of dollars and got no real re
lief until I used the Clticura Resolvent,
the new Blood Purifier, internally, and Cl”
ticcka and CmcuKA Soap, the Great Skin
Cures an'l Skin Beautifiers, externally, which
have cured me, and left my skin and blood
as pure as a child’s.
ALMOST INCREDIBLE.
James E. Richardson, Custom House.
New Orleans, on oath says: In INTO Scrofulous
Ulcers broke out on my body until I was a
mass of corruption. Everything known to
the medical faculty was tried in vain. I be
came a mere wreck. At times I could not lilt
my hands to iny head, could not turn iu bed;
was in constant pain, and looked upon life as
a curse. No relief or cure in ten years. In
1880 I heard of the Cuticura Remedies, used
them and was perfectly cured.
