The late Bishop 11. 11. Kavanaugh, who
recently died at Columbus, Miss., and

is narrated that on one occasion while

The ambition of Mrs. Damon Y. Kilgore
to become a member of the Philadelphia
bar has been crushed again. Jler ambi
tion, however, like truth crushed to earth
rises up with commendable promptness
'•'he learned Judge, in delivering his
opinion declining to grant Mrs. Kilgore a
license, said: “It may be admitteTl at
once that no inherent reason exists why a
woman, married or single, may not en
gage in any business which a man may
lawfully follow. It ought, however, to 1*
remembered taat the Creator of the uni
verse, for a reason which any reasonable
being ought to consider self-evident,
made a distinction between the sexes, and
saw fit, in the propagation of the species,
to protect the physically weaker sex by
laws as inflexible as other and general
laws governing the universe, and to place
under the protection of the male sex the
female, simply because, as a general and
universal law applicable to all created
living organisms, the female requires pro
tection.”
Mrs. Kilgore, it seems, needs protection
because of her sex, and it is, therefore,
folly for her to seek a position where she
will be required to protect and defend peo
ple, As high an authority as the Secre
tary of the Treasury, however, decided
that Mrs. Mary Miller was entitled to a
license to run a Mississippi river steam
boat, and that precedent ought to have
been suflicient to influence the learned
Judge to give Mrs. Kilgore a lawyer’s li
cense.
A Southern Manufacturer'.- Letter.
Some of the protectionists in the South
insist that the is n"t distant when
the d-mand for a protective tariff will be
a* Mr -ng in the South as it is now in the
\ -*jj. There is good reason for believing
that these protectionists are mistaken.
There if no doubt that manufacturing in
du fries in the South are increasing and
developing with wonderful rapidity, but
if the views of the wisest of those who
a-e now directing the south's manufac
turing interests prevail the manufactur
er- of the South will never demand a
tariff for protection. They are clear
headed enough to see that they need a
'
—that, in tact, the South is able to com
pete in manufacturing w ith any natb n :
in the markets of the world,
provided the barriers of protection are ,
removed. On this point we present the ,
letter of W. H. Young. President of the j
Fa de and Phonix Manufacturing Com- j
panv at Columbus, Ga., lately written to ’
Congressman Hugh Buchanan, of the ]
Fourth Georgia district, and by that gen
tleman presented to the W ays and Means
Committee through Congressman Blount.
Ine letter was written in answer to
an inquiry of Mr. Buchanan relative to
• effect the enactment of the Morrison
bill w iuM have on the manufacturing in
<! .-try of wnich Mr. Young is tiie head.
The Eagle and Phwslx mill- are the larg
j est cotton mills in the south, fhe letter
I of Mr. Young is well worth reading by
all who teel an interest in the tariff ques
j tion. The letter i- as follows;
Peak sir—l have your letter of the 10th
ii -t., in which you ask my views as to
what effect a reduction ot 20 percent,
would have on the cotton manufacturing
intere-ts of the South.
To the question 1 answer unhesitating
ly. none.
The - .util is now engaged in manu
facturing, say. standard or heavy weight
goods, and which are mainly consumed
by the masses of our population. South
and North, and now the south sends her
surplus production to the North, where
they display all such heavy weight goods
a- "were formerly made there and sent
south. These advantages < in all such
good- must ever remain with the south
over New England and Old England; and
unity to the cotton fields, has a relative
advantage over Old England.
A reduction of 20 i>er cent, on the tariff
would not enable England to compete with
thi- country. North or -outb, in these
hoav v weight goods, but if the tariff on all
articles entering into the cost of manufac
s country were also reduced 30
p.-r cent, then the manufacturers. North
and South, would be benefited, and if the
duties on all such goods entering into the
cost of manufacturing were made free
tic-n th>- North and South could corojste
wlth England in all markets of the world.
The tariff a it now stands of course
-hut- out all foreign competition with
manufacturing productions in this coun
try except a tew specialties of line goods
In tin- wealthy, and it locks in their pro
! dU' tions and thus coniines them to the
home demand, and as a consequence there
is now a glut of goods. To illustrate my
; position: The company over which 1 pre
side consumes about 7io bales of cotton per
: day. A New England mill consuming
tii.it amount of cotton would have to pay
y i |,it day more for it than it cost this
! company, and a mill in England would
have to pay more than that.
These advantages are so great that the
tariff, if entirely removed, would not
enable England to eonqiete with this
country on heavy weight goods, and if the
tariff was removed on all articles tlint
enter into tne cost of manufacturing, then
tni- country could command tin- markets
j of the world, and the supremacy of Eng
| land would he ended.
1 have visited England three times and
have investigated the cost of labor com
! pared with the south and found it more.
! or higher, than here, and yet our opera
tive was in better condition, from the
fact that food cost less with us, and
clothing also, as our climate does not
require such heavy clothing. I tnmk
I I 'rat the North al>out the same as in
England.
1 al-o investigated the cost and selling
price of heavy cotton goods and concluded
I could sell in England at a profit, but to
do so 1 must adopt their peculiarities of
styles and I prefer a home market.
"i lieheve it all our custom houses were
abolished that this country would find in
Eugland a large market for our manufac
tures of cotton and woollen goods. Now
this country is heavily taxed with almost
everything that enters into the cost of
production, beginning with machinery
and ending with baling the goods with
Scotch burlaps.
I believe the manufacturing interests in
this country', with their natural advant
ages, if free from all tariff legislation,
would soon made the i'nited Ntates the
great manufacturing centre. Yours truly.
w. 11. Young,
President Eagle and l’henix Manufactur
ing Company.
The above letter, so far as manufactur
ing in tne south is concerned, states the
situation squarely and fairly. Accepting
it- statements, and they cannot be suc
cessfully contradicted, it is not easy to
see how there can be any considerable
amount of sentiment in favor of a pro
tective tariff in this state or in the South.
The letter ought to be sufficient to make
j every Southern Congressman a staunch
j supporter of the Morrison bill. The
Southern Congressman who stands with
' Mr. Randall for protection—for a monopo
; iistic tariff—does so against the interests
j of his section.
Savannah’s Interests in Congress.
There is an impression that Savannah's
interests in Congress are not making
much progress. These interests are the
river improvement below' the city and the
much desired and long looked for post
office building. The Representative of
this district is doubtless doing all he can
for both.
It is not an easy matter to make head
way where so many interests are crowd
ing for recognition and demanding atten
tion. A committee of four gentlemen of
this city left for \Vashington last night to
add their arguments to those already sub
mitted in favor of an ample appropriation
for the river and for a public
building. The improvement so far
made in the river has had a good effect on
our commerce, and when the work is
completed vessels of the largest class will
l>e able to come to our wharves. With
respect to the post office building, every
thing that can be said in its favor has
been said* What is necessary is to im
press upon the committee which has
the matter in <-liarge the importance of
prompt action. No city in the country is
more in need of a post office building than
this, and no city has been so persistently
neglected by Congress, it is to lie hoped
that a more favorable report than has yet
been heard will soon l>e made.
The men uho are pressing the various
pension schemes liefore Congress are not
the soldiers of the late war. They are
pension agents who have already made
fortunes out ot this pension business. A
mernlK-rof the Grand Army of the lieputi
lic, sjs-aking to a representative of the
New York Herald, a few days ago, said:
“We of the Grand Army are opposed to
much of this pension legislation now on
the stocks and ready for launching. We
don't w ant service pensions—that is, to
hand money from the Government Trea
sury at this date to every man who went
into the service, regardless of his present
condition in life. We think it is absurd
to pay over to veterans now a snm of
money equal to the difference lietween
gold and greenbacks at the time the sol
diers were paid their liounties and sala
ries. and particularly we don’t want to
see any such gigantic swindle perpetrated
as that which propost s to give each sur
viving soldier a warrant for 160 acres of
land without regard to settlement. Why,
in a month fully GO per cent, of the
land would lie in the hands of laud
sharks, who would buy it for a song.”
John Logan is the champion of most of
the pension legislation. In his mad desire
to !>e President he" would open the doors
of the Treasury vaults to the pension at
torneys with the hope of making himself
popular with the soldier element. The
intelligent ex-soldiers, however,see his mo
tive and give him no more credit for what
he is doing than he deserves.

Fensatkmal Editors.
A couple of editors, Watterson, of the
Louisville C f ’Ufirr-Jourtuu. and McClure,
of the Philadelphia 7 have succeed
ed in stirrin'r up quite a breeze in polit -
cal circles. They are sensational in their
way of doing things, and it is not unjust
to them, perhaps, to say that nothing
gives them more pleasure than to see
themselves in print. Watterson, in
the last few years, has succeeded
in keeping himself more prominently
.betore the public than McClure has, and
this fact the latter, there is reason to be
lieve, has not accepted with the best
possible grace. When Watterson’s dis
patch notifying Mr. Randall and his pro
tection followers that if they persist
ed in obstructing the consideration
of the Morrison tariff bill they
would be invited to take up their
gni>-sacks and depart from the
Democratic party apj>eared. McClure
evidently thought tiiat he was in danger
of being overlooked if he did not say
something through his paper as startling as
that which Watterson had said. He, there
fore, telegraphed from \\ ashington that
all hope of Democratic unity on the tariff
J in Congress had perished, and that both
| wings of the party were arming and or
! ganfzlng for the conflict. He further said
that the ringing order for a free trade
advance sent out by Watterson \*us the
r.--uit of a del b.rately determined pur
[,-e on the part of the free trade leaders
to force the light and to desert Democracy
to follow free trade. It must lx; admitted
that in striving to be sensational Mc-
Clure fuiied, unintentionally no doubt, to
be entirely honest with his readers. Of
course be knows, as every intelligent
man knows, that there is no party and
no leaders of a party in this country ad
vocating free trade. He also knows that
the leaders of the tariff' reformers are not
preparing to desert Democracy. 11 hat
they are trying to do is to keep the protec
tionist Democrats, one ot whom
McClure claims to lie, from
deserting Democracy. The tariff reform
ers are endeavoring to carry out the prin
ciples of Democracy a- defined by the
platforms of National Democratic Con
ventions. It would lie interesting to know
what principle of Democracy the protec
tion Democrats are trying to carry out.
McClure doesn't enlighten his readers
on that point. The idea of four-fifths
of the party allowing one-fifth to
determine the party’s policy is rather
funny, hut it may be that McClure meant
to be funny as well as sensational. It is
probable that the party will survive the
sensational dispatches of both Watterson
and McClure.
Powers Weightman, the Philadel
phia chemical firm whose factory was de
stroyed by lire a short time ago, have
leased a fully equipped quinine factory at
Manbeim, in Germany. It is claimed
that the drug can be made 10 per cent,
cheaper in Europe than in America. It
is likely that P. & W. will now change
their minds on the tariff question, and be
in favor of quinine remaining on the free
list, at least until they can rebuild their
Philadelphia factory.

Taxing Articles of Necessity.
Boston Herald (Hep.,.
The surviving old Whig organ in New York

agriculture should be an free as the light and

Disintegration Not Confined to One Party
Chicago Tribune (Rep.,.
Carlisle’s utterances show that notwith
standing the opposition of the Randall fac

faction, and ait the other factions, the speak
er of the House and the Chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee intend to persist
in tiie com ;e they have marked out for them
selves on t.ie tariff question—one, in Carlisle’s
words, of reformation, not revolution. That
this course will have a powerful tendency to
disintegrate the Democratic party no one’ean
deny. But probably in their forecast of the
future thev see plainly that when tiiat disin
tegration begins it will nor lie confined to one
party by anv means.

YOUNG WILLIAMS’ $200,000.
The Suit to Recover that Sum from His
Father Derided in His Favor.
When John S. Git-tings, a millionaire
banker, says a Baltimore special of the
19tli to the New York Sun. died in this
city some years ago he left $200,000 to his
grandson, Ernaulil 11. Williams, a son ot
the lion. George Hawkins Williams, ex-
President of the state Senate, and also
very rich. This bequest has' ben the
cause of a great social sensation here, and
has made the Williams family affairs pub
lic property ever since IS*2. Early in
June of that year young Williams, who
was then 24 years old and a well-known
society man, made known his intention
of marrying Miss Mamie Hazlett, the
pretty daughter ot a widow of good char
acter, but fn humble circumstances. The
pride of the Williams family being well
known, it was expected that the course
of true love would not run smooth. Ac
cordingly, about two weeks later, no one
was surprised when it was announced
that young Williams had broken off the
engagemeut apd gone to Eurojte. He was
absent about four months, when he sud
denly appeared in the city, married Miss
Hazlett, and entered suit against his
father for $200,000. Then it came out that
Senator 'Williams had, by threats, in
duced Ernauit to make a deed of trust of
all his property to him, the father, on con
dition of receiving s2.wu annually. Tne
father then induced the son, who’claims
that he was drunk at the time, Li take the
European trip.
While abroad Ernauit received letters
from Ins family representing that it would
be unsafe for him to come back to Balti
more, as Miss Hazlett’s brothers had an
nounced their intention of killing him on
sight. Meanwhile Miss Ilaziett. despite
the efforts of Ernault's European guide,
who had been paid by the father to inter
cept objectionable letters, succeeded in
getting word to her lover that her family
did ind bear him any ill will. Ernauit
took the lirst steamer back to America,
and had made the young girl Ids wife be
fore tie- lather knew he was tins side of
the Atlantic-
Young Williams’ suit against liisfatber
has been on trial in the Circuit Court
here f>r several weeks. The father made
a strong light against his son’s efforts to
get possession ot the $200,000, and intro
duced testimony which gave some aston
ishing (acts about the family history.
The defence strove to prove that Ernauit
was weak-minded and incompeteut to
care for his cash, and that knowing this
fact he had made the deed of trust to his
father in order to prevent the Hazletts
from getting his money. This attack on
the Hazletts created much feeling, and
was the cause of several exciting scenes
in court. To-day Judge Fisher decided
the suit in favor of young Williams. But
the victory will only be temporary, as the
father has already announced liis inten
tion of taking the ease to the Court of
Ajipeals.
tne Williams family have furnished
much social gossip of late years in this
city. Miss Williams, the eldest daughter
of the Senator, was engaged to be married
last fall to Mr. Arthur Herbert, of .Muck
rose Abbey, the owner of the Lakes of
Killarney. Just before the appointed day
Herbert and the Senator had words about
the marriage settlement, and the English
man, considering himself insulted, broke
off the match and returned home. He
has since come back to America.
