Sfotf Jerald and ^duertiser. Newnan, Ga., Friday, April 27,1888. A ROSEBUD IMMORTAL. statement I think I have shown conclu sively that American merchants are not excluded from the markets of the world by our protective duties. Bexj. Leigh. MINNA HIVING. We slood in a garden at morning, A garden ail golden and green; Tlie leaves in tlie wind sang together, Hrr laughter made music between. She was robed in the white of the lilies, Her eyes, like the heavens, were blue, And around her in the sweetness unfolded The roses, a-glltter with dew. I prayed for a hud and she gave it With a smile, and a blush, and a sigh; I caught and I kissed her white Ungers, There trembled a tear in her eye. Then the gardener, ancient and wrinkled, Came clipping the boxwood and yew, And she went, and a cloud drifted over, And the sparkle died out of t lie dew. My locks are a-glimmer with silver. My life is unbrightened by love, For, still in tlie robes of the lilies, She sings with the angels above. In a book in my bare little attic, I.ald in with a leaflet of rue. Is a rosebud that never unfolded, For the lack of tlie sunlight and dew. That is all; she is dead like the rosebud, And my love for her never was told, But my dream of the glory of heaven ;s of her at the gateway of gold. She stands with her feet in the blossoms, And waitetli to welcome me through, And give me a rosebud Immortal, Ktnrred over with diamonds of dew. Effects of High Tariff and Low Tariff Contrasted. Mr. Editor: — I see that you have given your views upon the plan chosen j at |- by our Executive Committee, and I am satisfied you are right. I have been talking with several and they all agree J ^ ^ c j, ar j.- ( know there tion are, nine times out of ten very con ventional in everything outside their profession.

Ile THE TARIFF QUESTION. Protection Stimulates Trade. Mr. Editor:—It is asserted by low tariff men that the trade of this Coun try wit li oilier nations is restricted by our protective policy. In the spring of 1833 the tariffs of 1824-28 were modified, and the panic of 1837 was preceded by three years of enormous importa tions of foreign merchandise and of small exports. Our imports for 1835, 1836 and 1837 were $443,816,252, while our total exports during those three years were only $301,311,318 leaving a balance against us of $142,504,934. I he panic of 1857 was likewise preceded by large importations of merchandise and comparatively small exports. Oui im ports during 1856, ’57 and 58 amounted to $916,669,360, while our exports dur ing those years were but $738,095,899, leaving a balance against us of $178,573,461. Our imports of mer chandise from 1S48 to 1861, inclusive, a low tariff period, were $3,390,516,691 and our exports were $2,924,543,721,lea\- ing a balance against us of $465,972,970, about $320,000,000 of which was paid in coin. So, the reader can see that during all these years of low' taiiff our imports wore larger than oui ex ports; showing that our trade was very much restricted with the nations of the earth compared with the high tariff period of protection, as I will directly show. From 1862 to 1872, covering the war period, we imported $4,006,92S,710 and exported$3,041,456,231, the balance against us being $965,472,478, which was ; paid in coin and bonds; but this balance against us during a high tariff period was due to the war. From 1873 to 1883, inclusive, our exports were $7,482,798,- S23 and our imports were $6,305,8Sl,47o, leaving a balance of trade in our favor of $1,176,887,351. So it is clearly shown that we trade more with .the nations * during a high tariff than under a low tariff. That is, we sell more toother nations under a high tariff than under a low’ one; consequently our protective system does not shut us out from the markets of the world as is often assert- • ed by the low' tariff men. Previous to 1S61, at which time we adopted tile high tariff, nearly all the gold and silver we produced was ex ported to pay off the balance of trade; since then, with the exception of a few years during and after the war, (when our Government bonds were being largely purchased abroad,) we have not only kept our gold and silver at borne, but have received from foreign coun- * tries more than we have sent them, the balance of trade being in our favor, and hence we have a larger volume, of coin in the country at the present tune than ever before. Under a low tariff we stimulate for eign industries by letting foreign man ufacturers supply us with goods, and we rob our country of its coin to pay > f or these goods, thus bring on panics, bankrupting those in debt, and causing periods of business depression; while under a high tariff we stimulate home industries, let our own manufactuieis supply us with goods, keep our money at home, and allow the gold and silver from our mines gradually to increase our volume of currency as the popula- ■ tion and business increase. of the most vital must have a showing at the nomination of our candidates; for we must be pre pared to vote solid—that is, tlie Cleve land Democrats,—as we have Benedict Arnolds in our ranks, and the Repub lican party is already’ organized. IN e will have to meet as strong and formid able opposition in Georgia as in any of the Southern States, and more, for we have more manufactories a*d nearly as many mines, and we may count on them as solid against us. Then, there are men amongst us who don’t know how much poverty and suffering there is among the people, nor do they seem to care; for they will join with those who are benefited by a protective tariff, unless we do as we did before the war: meet in mass, have our platforms and make our candidates tell us how they stood upon them. IVe should al have such before we nominate any candidate for office, and have him pledged to carry them out as fully as he can. Let us have a mass meeting at Newnan, on the first Tuesday in May, and I hope you will recommend that every county in tlie State do the same. I see that my old friend, Benj. Leigh, is fighting in favor of high tariff, and against what he calls free trade, which is now the issue before the people of the United States. He thinks he has shown conclusively that a “low tai'iff makes high goods.” I will help him out, for he sadly needs help. lie has refer red to the Democratic tariff of 1846 to 1S61. This low Democratic tariff raised the price of cotton from. 3£c to 16c., and we poor people, who were crushed nigh unto death by the NN hig tariff of 1840 and 1842 and which brought cotton down from 16|c. to 34c., had our pock ets full of money and bought every thing we wanted, and this caused com petition between our people and all who had money. 1 agree that it will not bring the price of cotton, nor flour, nor corn, nor mules up to raise the tariff, but it will bring them down and keep them down; but it brings up the tilings we can’t raise and must have. Besides, a great many things we raise, and which can’t be raised elsewhere, are rendered almost worth less by this tariff. Cotton, for instance, is raised only in the Southern States, and is used all over the civilized world. If we only had free trade, cotton would make this country the great centre of civilization. But God, in Ilis wisdom, lias made this world so that man can- . _.CQ sfcvaJW “La, Mi'S," responded the du tendant, “dat ain’t no man; leastwise! not a real, sure-enough man; dat’s Dr. Mary Walker.” “Well, what in the world does she . dress like that for ?” queried the still irate young lady. “Why, dat’s because she's a doctor." “So am I a doctor.” “Yes, but she’s a rale, genuwine doc- 1 tor, just like a man. She's got a dis- j ploma.” “I don’t care, diploma or no diplo-1 urn, she’s got to come out of there be-J fore I’ll go in, and I wish you’d tell her so. I’m not going to make my toi-! let in the same room with trousers, whoever has them on.” Fortunately, this message was not delivered exactly, <>r Dr. Mary IN alker’s stubbornness might have kept her in that dressing-room up to the present hour. !. - ■' ' ' V - • - • c-c o o •: »-ov not enjoy life on this earth fully with out free trade; for we cannot raise all we need, and cannot be happy without it. We raise, however, what others should have and cannot be happy without. We are naturally social beings and cannot be happy without making others happy. Solomon had sense enough to know this, and he made more people happy and was happier himself than any other man; for he made peace with the world by establishing free trade with all na tions. It will “beat the sword into the ploughshare and the spear into the pruning hook,” as it did with him; so I say, “Fling wide ye twelve gates and let the King of Peace come in.” 1 think from the speech of our Hon orable Joseph E. Brown in the Senate, that he understands Jefferson, Wash ington, Madison, Monroe and Jackson in an entirely different light from what he did when we elected him when he first came before the people of Georgia for office. But then he was fresh from the plow, and his Gaddistown bull. Long since he declared that it was un just to collect revenue by a tariff; for it would rob the poor to give to the rich. Then we old-time Democrats would holler for “free trade and sail ors’ rights,” and we would beat any one who dared to run against him. But he sees very differently now. It must be that his golden spectacles have revers ed his vision. I think if we would hold a State Convention and let him know’ that we saw and felt that it was wicked to give him a chance to work for himself, when we pay him so high to work for us, he would either join Colquitt and work for the poor farmers and laborers as well as the rich, or he The reason why Acker’s Blood Elix ir is warranted, is because it is the best Blood Preparation known.
