It (the tariff) costs the people
five times more than it produces to
the Treasury, obsti nets the process
es of production and wastes the
fruits of labor.—Democratic Plat
form of 1876, on which Tilden car
ried tiie country.
It is a fact that it is becoming
impossible for a few Atlanta ring
sters to dictate to the people of
Georgia how they shall vote. The
tariff reform movement that is
sweeping over th<*Statc conclusive
ly demonstrates this.
One newspaper says Susan B.
Anthony is now sixty-nine years
old. Another newspaper says she
was fifty-nine years old at the time
of the Womans Convention in 1848.
If both these papers tell the truth,
Susan grows old very slowly.

Nature is never false but she is
deceptive. The world appears to
be flat and to stand still and the
sun seems to move. It was only
after patient investigation that the
reverse was found to be true. This

and that they are to be mastered <
only after labor and patient research. i
We see from our exchanges that '
the Mormons are proselyting in va- ‘
lions portions of Georgia. These

the communities where they are
tolerated, ftr certainly i n u o en
lightened section would there be c

The Excuse Gone.
When called upon some time ago
by the citizens of Chattooga to pay
for right of way for the C. R. <fe C.
railroad through Floyd county, the
business men of Rome gave as an
excus? for not complying, the prob
ability that they would be called
upon by Pres. Williamson to sub
scribe for stock to the road to secure
it where it would be most beneficial
to Rome. This probability is no
longer probable. The place for the
road to cross the river
has been selected and consequently
the road located, and still the citi
zens of Rome have not had, nor is
it likely they will be asked, to give
or subscribe anything.
This being the case the time has
come for Rome to pay for right of
way through Floyd county. The
excuse they gave for not doing so
some time ago is no excuse now.
The railroad will be completed to
this place at an early date and away
to Chattanooga will go the trade of
this county unless Rome comes up.
This is not sentiment but a matter
of simple business. What is more,
it is a fact.
What is Rome going to do about it?
The citizens of Rome contributed
$175 toward rebuilding the Baptist
church at Callieun.

The Norristown Herald publishes
the estimate of some one that a
piece of wood the size of a month
’ j old baby would be worn away one
: half in six months if handled as
| much as the average baby is. It
. j ventures its own opinion that if
I the woman who handles the baby
'was made of wood she would be
j worn away altogether in six months.
| These ideas open up a vast field for
I speculation. Following out this
i line of thought-, it is easy to see that j
jif an editor were made of wood, in
six months he would be sitting on
I the base of his neck, and that a
J pretty girl similarly constituted
could not be engaged to be married
. for a year without breaking in two
at the waist. Its a good thing that
all’ of us are not made of wood.
Emancipation in Rhode Island.
Last week’s election in Rhode
Island resulted in a Republican
triumph, as was expected. The
Republicans elected their entire
State ticket by majorities ranging
from 1,000 to 2,000 and secured the
legislature which will elect a I'. S.
senator. The reversal of last year's
verdict—When the Democrats car
ried the State—may be considered
a victory by the Republicans that
is worth something but it will be
without result on the presidential
election. The people of Rhode
Island at this election adopted an
amendment to their constitution
enfranchising about 18,000 voters,
who have hitherto, because they did
not own sufficient property to be bv
the laws in force entitled to vote,
been disqualified for voting, and
as a majority of these new voters
ire said to be Democrats it is prob
able that the electoral vote of Rhode
Island will be cast for President
| Cleveland despite the fact that, it is
j Republican now.
E. Himes, C. V. Hoffman, G. B. I
McFall and I). B. Fleming, of Os

game of whist a few' evenings ago.
After a time it became Mr. Mc-
Fall's turn to shuffle, which he did,
and after Mr. Hoffman had cut the
pack proceeded to deal in the usual
ray. The astonishment of the
players was great when they found
that Mr. Hoffman had thirteen
diamonds, Mr. Fleming thirteen
clubs, Mr. Himes thirteen hearts,
ami Mr. McFall thirteen spades.
The chances against such a coinci
dence are as 942,645,101,247,793,-

Mr. Tilden’s Platform.
The Atlanta Constitution makes
this surprising statement:
Mr. Tilden dictated every word of
the St. Louis platform of 1876. The
Committee did not change a single
line, and they were sensible for not
doing so. There was no such fool
ishness as Free Trade in it. Nor no
such foolishness as “tariff for reve
nue only.” His platform was suc
cessful and he Was elected.
We have recently republished the
tariff-reform plank of the Democrat
ic platform of 1876, upon which Mr.
Tilden carried New York and the
country, but as our Southern con
temporary seems ignorant of it and
it is good doctrine at this time we
give it again:
We denounce the present tariff,
levied upon nearly 1,000 articles, as
a masterpiece’of injustice, inequal
ity and false pretense. It yields a
dwindling, not a yearly rising reve
nue. It lias impoverished many in
dustries to subsidize a few. It pro
hibits imports that might purchase
the products of American labor. It
has degraded American commerce
from the first to an inferior rank on
the high seas. It has cut down the
sales of American manufactures at
home and abroad, and depleted the
returns of American agriculture—
an industry followed by half our
people. It costs the people five
times more than it produces to the
Treasury, obstructs the processes of
production and wastes the fruits of
labor. It promotes fraud and fos
ters smuggling, enriches dishonest
officials and bankrups honest mer
chants. We demand that all cus
tom-house TAXATION SHALL BE ONLY
FOR HE VENUE.
This terse and forcible denuncia
tion of the war tariff makes Presi
dent Cleveland’s message seem mod
erate and almost tame in compari
son. The sort of “foolishness” that
Mr. Tilden’s platform did not con
tain was the demand which the
Constitution and a few other Dem
ocratic journals now make—that
the internal taxes on whiskey and
beer be abolished inorder to render
impracticable any reduction in the
tariff taxes on the necessities of the
people. Mr. Tilden was too sound
an economist and too good a Dem
ocrat to favor such a policy as
this.—New York "World.
Oskaloosa, Kan., has elected a
mayor and council, all of whom are
women. The citizens of that town, i
when speaking of their mayor, will I
have to say “her honor,” and the
members of the council will have to |
be spoken of as “councilwomen” or i
“aiderwomen” as the case may be.!
The mayor and council had deter-:
mined to visit Kansas City and see 1
the workings of that city govern
ment in order to acquire knowledge I
sufficient to enable them to run
their town on correct ond approved ;
style, but the mayor's baby became I
ill with colic and on this account I
the trip had to be postponed. The
city “fathers” of Oskaloosa propose'
to make things hum, and the News I
hopes they may.
Ten thousand rotting mail-bags j
have been unearthed by the new
Postmaster-General in the cellar of
the Government repairs shop in
Washington. They were the ac
cumulations of thirteen years of
Republican rule. Many of them
had not been used sufficiently to be
soiled, but they are rotten and use
less now. The shop had until re
cently been superintended by a Re
publican who had been in charge
twenty-seven years. Upon discov
ering the rotten mail-bags the Post
master-General removed him and
gave the place to a Democrat.
The democrats of two counties in
Georgia, Houston and Clark, in
convention have declared for a re-1
duetion of the thieving tariff. Their;
action unmistakably shows that
the people of Georgia will speak in .
no uncertain sound in the State j
convention and through their dele- :
gates to the national convention at |
St. Louis for the nomination of
Cleveland and in indorsement of
his tariff views.
It is stated on the outside of this
paper that Mr. Harris was droyvnd
ed in Coosa river, this is a mis
take. Mr. 11. has turned up alive
and well since our outside was
printed. We congratulate Mr. 11.
and hasten to correct the false im
pression as to his whereabouts.
A statistician, who has figured
upon the subject, says there are 31
criminals to every 1.009 bachelors
and only 11 criminals to every 1,000
married men. From this he con
cludes that matrimony restrains
crime and ought to be encouraged.
C, P. Gillette, of lowa, was re

If nothing more happens to the
. peach crop wo will have pie yet.
In some places there will be a right
smart sprinkle of fruit. I heard
some gentlemen say a few days ago
that the farmers are more behind
with their work just now than for
' many years, owing in a great meas
ure to thegainy weather during the
latter part of winter and early part
of spring. I notice a great deal of
■ fertilizers are being hauled off by
. the farmers, and everything points
to heavy* crops this year if the sca
sons are favorable. The farmers
seem to be in good spirits, and are
■ pushing their work with a vim. It
I seems that an era of prosperity is
. dawning upon upon us, which is
truly gratifying. The railroad
bridge is nearing completion, and
1 will be finished in a few days if
1 nothing occurs to prevent. The
pile drivers have completed their
1 work here, and have moved on
towaid Summerville. Before many
’ weeks pass the Long talked of, long
; looked for railroad engine and cars
' | will roll into our midst, but it is
rather unpleasant to contemplate
the idea of the cars just passing
1 right on through our town without
stopping, if Mr. Williamson refuses
to allow us a depot as has been in
timated he intends doing. O 1 wont
that be too bad. Please don’t give
us the go by in that manner. We
wont do so any’ more. Next rail
! road you go to build through our
town we will behave ourselves bet-
; ter. Please let us have a depot.
I think the course pursued by
Judge Bellah in the case of the two
negroes arrested here a few days
ago was correct. It is true they
might have been prosecuted for a
higher grade of crime than that
mentioned in the warrant, but as
I they were not permanent citizens
lof the county’, and the difficulty
being confined to them alone, and
none of our own people injured, it
■ was better to settle the case as was
done rather than keep them in jail
, until the fall term of the Superior
court, and try’ them, which would
have cost the county’ more than the
' game was worth.

One of the old land marks of
Trion lias been removed. I refer
to the old oak tree that stood onthej
corner near Mr. Steele’s garden. It I
was dug up for the purpose of giv- I
ing more room for the street at that I

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Summerville, April 13, 1888.
Editor News:—As I stated in a
former letter to the News the count y
paper is one of the best mediums
through which to reach th ? mass of
voters for it is read by nearly every
one of them, and, what is better,
understood.
A voter, to vote intelligently,
should know something of the lead
ing issues between parties; and es
pecially Just at this time should the
consumers of the necessaries of
life unierstand the nature of the
iniquitous, burdensome tax which
rests upon these same necessaries.
I wish you could put that word
“necessaries” in big italics. It is
the policy of governments, usually,
to tax the luxuries only, and this is
as it should he, for the payment of
this tax is then more nearly volun
tary. But our government is in
clined to reverse this policy, leaving
luxuries for the most part out, and
doubling on necessaries.
Os course, in this short note, I
cannot attempt to discuss the all
absorbing subject of the tariff even
had I the ability. I was glad when
the News opened fire on the right
side.
1 hope every county paper in the
State will touch up the tariff, the
useless tariff, every week, in order
to counterbalance the fallacious,
misleading reasoning of that widely
circulated, bought up chameleon of
Atlanta. Voters should be told,
and told often, not to be satisfied
with a man simply because he
| screeches, “I’m a democrat; I’m all j
right.” I never saw a drunken fool >
that didn’t say be was “all right.”
' Let them request him to state spe-I
cifically in what particular he is all
right; what he is for and what
against. It is quite as important to
I elect a tariff reform man to the
legislature, as to congress, for a
reform legislature means a tariff
| reform U. S. Senator. I don’t be
; liete we could do better than re
elect Alfred It. Colquitt to the
senate. It is true he voted for
Granny Blair’s bill, but, for aught
I know, the Blair bill may prove |
beneficial in spite of its objectiona
ble features. Otherwise Colquitt’s
record is without blemish.
If we ever have another legisla
ture willing to elect Uncle .Joey to
the senate or any other place of
' power, it otlght to be oblivlonatcd,
: annihilated, and banished, before its
meeting time arrives. He has ever
been a wolf, winking blandly at the
people with one eye, while he kept
the other wide open and well focus
ed on the main chance, and that
chance—Jo Brown’s. He has ever
antagonized the interests of the
people he was elected to represent,
and alffays ill the interest of just
one—Jo Brown. It is quite time he
retired; b.ut money has done much
in the past and may do it again.
In the coming elections let the
people be admonished to know for
whom they vote, before it too late. I
