HAMILTON PUBLISHED EVEK1C FRIDAY. SUBSCRIPTION $1.00 A YEAR ~ J. L. Dennis, Proprietor. rr— HAMILTON, GEORGIA December 2,............►...... 1887 . 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. More Anon. 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. At Philadelphia the other day the Law and Order Society received a set back in its attempt to keep the Quakers from drinkingbeer on Sunday. ( Sllnday laws - lbat cit> has been < started the citizens have been buying j. their beer on Saturday and having it placed in bottles in which it could be ^ or Sunday use.

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.
