In these governments the fact follows
the theory of taxation—namely, that it
is a burden laid by compulsion for the
common need*. With us the truth
seems to be that the protective tariff
tax lias debauched the common mind
to au extent that what taxation really
is lias become a lost quantity. The
protective tarifl* avowedly luid not
for the common need but for the 8|ie-
cial private need of a few* persons has,
by humbugging nnd by “combines”
of the rich in the arts of lobyiug,
been so long coutined that the people
at large are, as it were, stupefied, and
consent to pay an average of 45 per
cect. on cost tor the benefit of million
aire nionoimlists. It is only the mar
velous richness, uatural advantages
nnd sparse settlement of this country
that enable them to do. Those things
will not always be ns they arc and the
“irresistible economies” will some dav
pinch the people so that they wiil
awaken to set* the folly of the princi
ple of getting rich by taxation, and
the corruption and outrage of raising
more by taxation than to supply the
need* of the government economically
administered.”
A max who has more time than
money has taken the trouble to find
out how far a farmer lias to walk to
cultivate forty acres of corn.' To
plow the ground with a sixteen-inch
plow, he walks 350 miles; to harrow
the ground thoroughly before plant
ing, he walk* fifty miles; to cultivate
it afterwards, -lie walks 300 miles,
making a grand total of 700 miles, be
sides the gathering. The Savannah
News thinks that brooding over infor
mation li’ e this is one of the things
that makes farmers’ sons too tired to
tay on the farm, and suggests that ns
a set-off, somebody ought to find out
how many miles a dry good* clerk
walk* in a day.
The hope of the country, and more
especially of Southwest Georgia, does
not lie in the farmer who drives a

other supplies as ctn be made at home,
but which he buys on the strength ol
a Hen on his growing crop.
The New York Times says that,

According to the Charleston. New ■
and Courier, there are now in
in Kentucky alone 39,000,000
of whisky, of which amount
nearly half was manufactured last
year. There are also 5,000,000 gallons
in foreign ports belonging to Ken
tucky men, which stock U also of re
cent production. The total manufac
ture of whisky In the one State within
a year or two past amounted, there
fore, to 44,000,000 gallons, without
sold and consumed. All
the stock is held by the makers subject
to future demand, and a resolution lias
been adopted recoin mending the ces
sation of production for a year- Tlie
total amount of whisky in stock in tlie
United States is not given, but is prol>-
ably not far from double the amouut
reported in Kentucky.
“It is evident,” concludes tlie News
and Courier, “that tlie Govemmei.t
tax on whisky has not checked tlie
production, or crippled the industry in
any way. In spite of the tax, tlie man

Nearly every dollar of tax goes into tlie

The price or coffee had been gradu
ally advancing lor some time, the re
sult of a comer in the market that had
been worked up by a strong syndicate
of dealers and brokers, but when tlie
crisis came on Monday there was a de
cline of six cents on the pound, which
the bulls of the market could not
stand.
The market seems to have broken
under its own weight, as a syndicate
kept buying and buying until a point
was reached when they dare not un
load for fear of knocking a hole iu
prices. It may now be assumed that
the price of coffee will continually
decline until the natural prices, as
regulated by supply and demand, have
again assumed control of the market.

Tam;ax county, Ky., famous for its
glio*t stories, furnishes a genuine
Ridcti Haggard hair-raiser, which is
detailed iu a special dispatch to the
Louisville Courier-Journal, which
reproduced ou the first page of tills
morning’s News and Advertiser.

came from u deserted church situated
In the “Dead Lands,” a section of
country three miles long, covered with
swamp. Tlie long-deserted edifice
ap|ieared to be lit up with an unearth
ly red fir*, while grouped around what
had once been the altar were a dozen
figures clothed In w*hite, the faces
covered with black hoods, the long
arm* and ileshiess fingers pointing
across the alter, on w*hich lay a figure
similar to the others. The ghostly
baud marched around the altar three
times, when the red light gradually
died our, and the reputable cltizeu’s
horse lieCauie frightened and ran
away, putting an end to further in
vestigation*. The Courier-Journal in
giving publicity toihe story, takes oc
casion to remark that there is evidently
i*till a very red article of liquor iu Lo
gan county.
The Courier-Journal is out in
strong leader on “Crime in Ken
tucky,” urging tlie necessity of adopt
ing mean* to suppress It. Crime has
been miming riot in that fair land,
bile tlie law Is entirely powerless
luder Hie existing public sentiment
uictc out jnst retribution. The
Courier-Journal certainly pictures a
lcplorublc state ot affairs in which in
dividual crimes, mob law and violence
have contributed to a reign of law-
lessne-s. In 1886 a Judge of the Supe
rior Court stated that there were at
one rime auatitig trial in one county,
twenty-eight murderers, whose money
and influential connections w*ere being
used to escape conviction and punish
ment. It i* said tliat the present sys
tem of trial by jury in the State is a
farce.
