Mr. J. F. Hanson, of ATaeon, has been
delivering addresses in different parts of
the State upon the ad vantages of a pro
tective tariff. Mr. ilanson is an able
man and an honest one. He is aggressive
and fearless and a strong champion of any
cause he-may advocate.
Mr. Hanson will have a hard time con
vincing the people of Georgia, however,
that a protective tariff, which must be a
high tariff, is one of tho blessings to be
cultivated and maintained. We doubt if
his well known earnestness and vesatil-
ity will enable him to make a strong
canvass on this issue.
Mr. Hanson declares that “labor is the
source of wealth,” and that “the first
duty of the government is to adopt that
policy which will secure *the steadiest
employment at the best rate of wages.”
What sort of labor is the source of
wealth in this country? Is it the labor
in the factory or on the farm? Is not
labor upon land the principal source of
wealth in this great agricultural country
of ours, and is not any tariff which op
presses the basis of this wealth for tho j
sake of the other unwise and unsound?
The farmer, of course, is interested in
diversified industries, because they are
parts of a great system, and no country
can bo independent without them; but a
tariff which taxes and double taxes one
element of wealth to sustain another,
and which fastens to a country
until tho manufactures haye grown pour
erful and oppressive, is not in the end a
protective tariff, it is a proscrjptive
tariff. It keeps down the fanner to
build up the fabric-maker, It balances
the subsidy against the fruits of fair la
bor. No such system can be just or
wholesome.
The South is building up industrially;
that is true. But her mines and her
spindles ore developing because of their
natural richness, not because of any pro
tective tariff IleroresAre richer than
in Pennsylvania, and her mills more vig
orous thau in Massachuetts. In natural
resources we ore outstripping our North
ern competitors. Now for a market:
must we lie confined, along with the
Northern furnace and mill, to an easily
glutted homo market? Protection makes
cowards of us oil. It places ' tho whole
industrial system on a dead level. The
South must always play seconl fiddle
to the established industries of the
North, so long as high tariff bars foreign
commerce and keeps down American
shipping. With foreign markets open
for machinery and such raw material as
wo may want; with an interchange of
products such as a freer and fairer trade
may encourage, tho South will attain her
industrial independence much sooner
than in crouching under a dwarfing nnd
delusive protective tariff.
Wo agree with Mr. Hanson when he
says that “tho South is poor for want of
diversity in industry. Her experience
in depending upon one industry and op
posing all others should admonish us
that prosperity without diversity and the
mutal support of diversified classes is
impossible.”

Gents A number of people had been using
f our Bitters here, and with marked effect,

aadbeeu eick for years, and for the past ten
rears I have known her she lxaa not been able

beneficial effect ou her that one bottle im
proved her so she was able to dress herself
ind walk about (ho house. When she hod
atken the second bottle she was able to take
;are of her own room and walk out to her
neighbor’s and 1ms Improved all the time

great benefit from their use.

Gents:—Whoever you are, 1 don’t know,
nut I thank t he Lord and feel grateful to you
so know that in this world of adulterated
medicines there la one compound that proves
and does all it advertises to do, ami more.
Four years ago, I hod a slight shock of palsy,
which unnerved ine to such an extent that
die least excitement would make me shake
like the ague. Last May 1 was induced to
:ry Hop Bitters. 1 used one bottle, bnt did
not see any ehnnse; another did to change
my nerves that they arc now as steady si
they ever-were. It used to take both handrf
to write, but now my good right hand writes
dils. Now, if you continue to manufacture
is honest and good an article as you do, you
trill accumulate an honest fortune, and con.

A Husband’s Testimony;
My wife was troubled for years with blotches,
moth patches and pimples on her face, which
nearly annoyed the life out of her. She spent
many dollars on the thousand infallible (1)
cures, with nothing but injurious effects. A
lady friend, of Syracuse, N. Y., who had had
similar experience and had been cured with
Hop Bitters, Induced her to try it. One bottle
has made her fuceas smooth, fair and soft as a
child’s and given her such health that it seems
almost a miracle.
A Member of Canadian Parliament.
A Rich Lady's Experience.
I traveled all over Europe and other foreign
countries at a cost of thousands of dollars, in
search of health and found ft not. I returned
discouraged and disheartened, and was restored
to real youthful health aud spirits with less
than two bottles of Hop Hitters. I hope others
may profit by my experience nnd stay at home.
