MsJor Mcivinley, the ex-Congress- msn, in one of his recent speeches, says the New Orleans States,declared that the tariff would not be changed for ten years. This statement is no donbt very reassuring to the fat-fry ers of the Republican party, but at the same time it corroborates what the Democratic press has frequently charged, and that is, the packing of the Senate for the purpose of ena bling the manufacturers to fatten o the people for a certain period. It amounts in fact to a confession that the people are opposed to the tariff, but they are compelled, owing to the conspiracy of the Republican party t» submit to the bleeding process for at least ten years. The McKinley bill, in other words, is a victory over the people, because the Senate has been so fixed that their appeals for relief will not be heeded. This what McKinley thinks as he address es the plutocrats at their banquets in the East, and this is what he says, but he oveilooks one very important point, and that is the people under stand the situation as thoroughly as he does, and that they are getting ready to impress upon his mind the fact that they do not intend to be robbed any more if they can prevent it, and it looks as though they were very much in earnest. The boast o! McKinley that the Republicans will hold the Senate for ten years is a good one, but in the present temper of the people it is a dangerous boast to make, and we feel quite sure that the author of the high tax bill will soon realize that he crowed loudly beiore be got out of the woods. Agaio, Mr. Mills strikes a stout blow to the name of his country’s Democracy when be says: We should enlarge, aa far aa we car, all markets for all products, and not lock up our agricultural products while throwing wide'the gates for the export of manufactures. More over, in ell things we should deal frankly with the people. We should not call a steel rail a bushel of wheat or a locomotive a barrel of poriL- The markets of the South would be valuabid to our manufacturers, and we ought to do all we can to secure them; but we should not secure them for the benefit of monopolies, bot for the benefit of all our people The right way to secure tnem is to produce our goods at leas cost jand to carry them and offer them for sale. We can produce them at leas cost by removing sll taxes from the materials that are used in making them. This policy would open the foreign market for our goods and enlarge the domes tic market; for onr best market is the home market, and It is a good or a bad market just in proportion to the amount and value of the surplus that we export. And this is'lhe whole matter in nutshell. Discerning men can see at a glance that the Republican ad ministration has hit upon this reci procity scheme simply to beguile the general public into sympathy wi h the Republican party. The w?d - spread opposition to protective tariff increasing every day with the intol erable operation of the McKiniy bill, has driven the Republicans to some recourse such as this, and Mr. Blaine is the man who has devised the method. But Mr. Blaine’s little game wont work. He has shown bis hand too early in the game. Reciprocity such as the Republicans would have, is s synonym of rank protection. scope.

Mr. Blaine is a circumspective, as tuts and wiry politician. He has a way of mystifying everything upon which he lays his sleek fingers so that the people are.blinded into be lieving him ao honest hearted states men, who forsooth, at times would even forget his party for the people and the whole people’s good. Mr. Blaine’s iridescent dream of reciprocity with which he has charm ed the weak hearted Democrats of the North perhaps into the belief that he Beeks to lay aside rank Re publican protection to give their country freer and more wholesome trade, baa about collapsed at last, and the grand rascal has been uncov ered from his mask of dilative reci procity. Mr. Mills is the man who did it We do not see how oven the faintest hearted Democrat who believes in ‘‘a tariff for revenue only” can read the paper on reciprocity by Mr. Mills in the May number of The Forum, without seeing the true inwardness of the administration’s scheme to condemn it. In that paper Mr. Mills shows that Mr. Blaine, in his pro- poied agreement with the South American countries seeks to place ■' on the free list of exports only those productions that come from the ships of the manufacturers. The farmers’ agricultural products are not "in it,” to use the common par lance of the day. But hearken unto the clinching testimony of Mr. Mills against Mr, Blai ne in this case: ~ Our prosperity depends five times as much upon our exports of agri cultural products as upon our ex ports of manufactured products, and ■ the benefit to the farmer of free trade with the southern countries would be practicully nothing. It is the in i’ rust of the protected manufacturer lh.it points southward. The interest of the unprotected farmer points eastward. We must open wider the markets of the East for our farm Tns Atlanta Journal talks truth to-the following tune: The need of the Southern people, and the demand now made is for books that do them justice in the history of onr own country and the information given concerning our own section. The rising generation in the Sonth are not to be taught that their fathers were "rebels,” while the revolution ists of 1776 are glorified. They should not be taught that the South ern people were criminals because they lately owned slaves whose an- cestors were sold to them by North., ern owners or importers. The North, ern school books, too, are deficient in information about the geography, resources and productions-of the Southern States, fail ng to describe these as fully aud accurately as they give similar information about the Northern States. Of course the best and truest school books are those that are want ed, and that is why a change is called for. Hox. J. S. Clark sox in North American Review: I defend also the honesty of the poli tician. I know personally of the gener osity of the men of politics. Twenty five years’ participation hr active poli tics has given me a chance to look in the lion’s mouth.- I can recall to-day, looking back over this long stretch of time, scarcely any men who have made money in polities. 1 know of no poli tician who has become rich as a politi cian. To find those who find fortune and gear in politics, you must gotothe corrupt rule of Tammany or some other large city. I believe that it may be asserted as true that 99 men out of every 100 spend more money in politics,'and in public affairs ana for the public good, than they ever gain in politics or from any sort of office-holding or profit- sharing in government. Yes, it is true that very many men spend very much money in politics. Yes, very many. Very much.
