In the South has increased 40 per

The democrats of South Carolina,
in state convention at Columbia,
heartily and thoroughly approved
President Cleveland’s tariff message.
There lias been no break thus far
in the harmony of State Democrat¬
ic conventions and the discord of
State Republican conventions.
It lias been generally accepted as
true that Hon. H. II. Carlton, rep¬
resentative in Congress, would have
no opposition iii the approaching
election, hut from the present ten¬
dency of affairs it is almost certain
that a candidate will offer against
him. Hon Sam Barnett, of Wilkes,
has offered to make the race under
certain conditions, it is said, and
there are several other Richmonds
who are willing to enter the lists
This article from the Sandersville
Progress, wo most heartily in
dorse:—
Hon. Patrick Walsh is an honest.
upright man, a good democrat, ex¬
ceptionally pure as a politician.
His difference of opinion with the
President and the majority of the
party,on the tariff question, unfitted
Aim perhaps as a del igato to St,
Louis, hut does not merit/the donif
iuant,faction would seemingly im.
pose upon him. His fidelity to tlie
party has certainly been less waver¬
ing than that of others who now
are honored.
This hub bub about Hon. Pat¬
rick Walsh is all a big pack of
“stuff.” I’at Walsh is no truer to
the Democratic party than thous¬
ands of others in this state. The
cry that is now being raised in his
behalf is only an indirect way of
creating a sentiment against Mr.
Colquitt. But the people of Geor¬
gia will not allow this. They
have spoken in favor of Mr. Col¬
quitt and when the proper time
c nnes they will do it again. The
people must keep their eyes open
to the issues this year. 11“ there is
any chance to heat Mr. Colquitt for
the senate it will he seized, and
then the cry will go forth that the
protectionists have won even in
Georgia, See to it that the men
you send to the Legislature are
right, on this question. Unles they
are they cannot ; c in unison with
the democratic party under its pres¬
ent leadership.
Some Sensible Fun.
Hon. S, 8. Cox takes off the ar¬
guments of the protectionists in
fine style, lie rivals them in their
ability to form conclusions. He
argues:
“England has free trade; Eng¬
land has low wages. Ergo, free
trade produces low wages.
“Again the United stales has pro¬
tection; the United Suites has high
wages. Therefore protection pro¬
duces high wages.
“England has a house of lords;
England has low wages. Conclu¬
sion ; the lords make low wages
Tne United States is infested with
tramps; the United States has high
wages. Therefore tramps make
wages high.
“Ireland has no snakes: Ireland
has low wages. Algal, snakes make
high wages.
“Russia has high protection;
Ru-siahas low wages. Therefore,
protection makes wages low.
“Turkey—well gentlemen excuse
for my reference? Well, Turkey has
a low tariff —8 per cent. Turkey
has the Koran, Therefore the Ko
fau makes wages low,
