THE TARIFF.
NO. 2.
Mr. Editor :—Assuming that Con¬
gress will do its duty and repeal the
Internal Revenue Law and come
back to ante bellum purity and jus¬
tice then the tariff can have a fair
and just consideration. As long as
the Internal Revenue system contin¬
ues it embarrases and with many
prevents a fair consideration. If is
an open secret that much of the anx¬
iety to scale the tariff and thus re¬
duce the surplus in the treasury arises
with those interested in and desiring
to continue the Internal Revenue
system. The whiskey and tobacco
manufacturers are of this class and
are blatant on the subject of reduc¬
tion and this is so strong that it has
a very percept ible influence on poli¬
ticians. If Mr. Carlisle and his
friends are sincere, let them' tepeal
this unjust measure, then their sin
eerily will be apparent and they will
get valuable help in whatever reduc¬
tion may be necessary.
A great deal has been said aoout
protection and to the uninitiated and
the uninformed, protection
would appear to be the
direst of evils or a giant of such tre
mendous proportions as to destroy by
a single blow every hope of piosperi
ty. Let no one be deceived by such
idle fantacies. Protection to some
extent has existed in every tariff
from the foundation of the govern¬
ment. It is impossible to levy any
duty on imports without affording
p otection to that extent. All that
Mr. Randall and his friends and the
democratic party ask is a tariff for
revenue with such protection as nec
essarily grows out of it. It is im¬
possible not to discriminate. Would
it be right to levy as high a duty on
sugar, coffee and necessaries as on
luxuiies ? Then, if you discriminate
at all, is it not right to discriminats
in favor of American labor both of
the farmer, manufacturer ami the me
chanic? No nation can be really
prosperous only as she utilizes her
mineral and agncultural resources
and in so doing benefits all classes of
society. The utopian dream of free
trade is at the bottom of most of the
discussion on this subject. Like the
lamented Judge McCav, who was
specially gifted in conversational
if you let him the
! controversy never ended. Come down
to simple facts and protection is
right and let the theories indulge his
fancies. It is right in itself to dis
j i crirnite and in so doing foster home
industries. The south needs facto
ries of all kinds, and her independ¬
ence will not be achieved or pros
perity attained until this result is
j brought about. How shall it be
i done ? By wise laws and the fos¬
tering care of government.

REV. SAM JONES.
Mr. Editor: —Among the remark¬
able characters of the present age
Sam Jones stands conspicuous. The
public is fully aware that there is but
one Sam Jones. For his numerous
feeble imitatois all sensible men have
a supreme contempt and it only shows
in those who try to imitate an utter
want of common sense and common
honesty. These imitators are more
numerous than is generally supposed,
and public sentiment ought to put
the brand of Cain upon them. It
may be questioned, and is by some
of the best men living, whether Sam
Jones has r.ot done more harm than
good. If rightly reported he often
utters language that no sensible, de¬
cent man would allow in his parlor,
and surely no one will excuse such
language in the holy house of God.
But the imitators of Sam Jones are
more reprehensible than Sam himself,
for Sam has that peculiar talent and
wit and they have not. One such
man might, be tolerated in a genera¬
tion as reaching a class not usually
reached, but for the ordinary pastor
t6 attempt such a thing is unmixed
sacrilege and a desecration of the
sanctuary of God. The banner of
the cro~s is trailed in mud and slime
by all such attempts and as such
ought not to be tolerated. All such
coarse, vulgar slang destroys venera¬
tion and reverence for the pulpit and
the preachers All slang is offensive
to good taste and to the best interest
of the church and the spread of the
gospel. It is unmistakably true that
the pulpit and the church are sacred
places and ought to be entered with
fear and trembling. The pulpit is
not a fit place for the buffoon or the
egotist. The minister should stand
Wiipd the cross aud not before it.

Quakers from drinkingbeer on Sunday.

THE SAVAGE WAY.
Dow the Indian Treats an Injury
Old Time Methods.
The savage emphatically is the
child of nature. He lives close to
nature, his only education is gained
in nature’s school.
When the Indian receives an inju¬
ry he does not seek a cure in miner¬
al poisons, but binds on the simple
leaff, administers the herbal tea, and,
with nature’s aid, comes natural re¬
covery. A 1
Our rugged ancestors, who pierced
the wilderness, built their uncouth
but comfortable log cabins and start¬
ed the clearings in the woods, which
in time became the broad, fertile
fields of the modern farmer, found in
roots and herbs that lay close at hand
nature's potent remedies for all their
common ailments. It was only in
very serious cases they sent for old
“saddle-bags” with his physic, which
quite as often killed as cured.
LaHer day society has wandered
too far away from nature, in every
way, for its own good. Our grand
fathers and grandmothers lived whole
somer, purer, better, healthier, more
ir tural lives than we do. Their
minds were n©t fiBed—with noxious
isms, nor their bodies with poisonous
