Mr. James Paktox closes an article

"We have it upon the authority of

!NTo country can live upon one industry

In this day of rapid transportation
we will in all probability

The country evidently is ready for
a reduction or the tariff. Some politicians
may not be ready to meet the
issne squarely, but the people demand
that no more should be taken from
them than is necessary to run the government.
The reduction must come
sooner or later and the sooner the better.
The people at large will not

it had to dig very hard to get that.

to obtain from Congress the enactment

children finally obtained a position in
the patent office, which helped to relieve
the wautsof her declining years.

of their school of politics have
combined together to subscribe $100
a year for the circulation of protectionist
literature -during the coming

which will give the neat sum of
$100,000 to be used for monopoly politics.

to the atlentiou of the inter-State
commission, with the view of securing
more uniform rates to and from
Charlote. One of the most prominent
cotton men of the city on Monday
night told a Chronicle reporter that
unless something is done in this section,
Charlotte.s railroad cotton trade
would continue dwindling down until
it would amount to almost nothing.
*'I am in favor," he said, "of taking
the bull by the horns. We have submitted
to these discriminations long
enough, and it has become apparent
that as we submit, we will get no
relief. I' would like to sec our business
men unite in an effort to secure
better rates, and I am sure that if they
would pull together, the desired result
could be accomplished."
WniLK the Legislature is in sessjpn
this term wc think it would be well
for them to look into our public school
svstein a little. Take the matter of
"
i books, for instance, there could be
much good done. "We believe that
there is a lan* regulating what books
should be used, but as far as we learn
it is a dead letter. Some uniform system
of text books should be adopted
and rigidly enforced. As the practice
i is at present, every teacher has a wide
discretion in the selection of his text
books, and in every school district
will be found a different set of books.
This, of course, places a needless expense
upon a man who changes from
one district to mother, lie has to
buy an entirely new set of books, and
school books arc proverbilly costly.
Xow the State Board could enforce the
law that every public school teacher
should use the same books and every
scholar would receive the best advantages
possible. The cost of books is J
the principal objection to me present
j system and an uniformity is the only
I remedy.
"Tiie taxes to be first remitted are
j those which prevent or hinder the sale
j of our surplus products in foreign
| markets. Their removal will set capi;
tal iu motion by tue promise of better
returns, enlarge the steady employ;
ment and increase the annual income
; of many thousand wage-earners,
whose prosperity will diffuse prosperity.
These taxes are the duties on
raw materials, and the most widely
injurious of them is the tax upon raw
wool. Bat the income of all the
wage-earners in the United Stales, can
be at once enlarged effectively, certainly,
permanently, by reducing the
cost to tbem of the great necessities of
life. Our war tariff taxes increase
needlessly the cost of clothing, shelter,
food, to every family. Every
wage-earner's expense, every taxpayers
expense, for the clothing of himself
and his family is nearly doubled,
at least in the Northern, Middle and
"Western States, by* taxation which
can now be remitted, yet leave the
Treasury a sufficient revenue."?

Iiie American party, at its convention
recently held 111 Philadelphia,
formulated its platform which contains
some very good suggestions.
They view with fear the great influx
of foreigners into our country?people
who constitute the refuse of European
nations. They demand that laws
fl-./tvi'Ir! r\Q eenrl mobincr fnnrfpoil
o;:vu;u w\s ?v%%* w??
years' residence an indispensable
requisite for citizenship. They demand
that all communists, socialists,
nihilists, anarchists, paupers and criminals
shall be excluded, but they suggest
no plan whereby immigrants can
be classified in any of the classes
mentioned. The also oppose the appropriation
of money or property of
the people to any church. This .is a
most excellent plank and could be
safely adopted by either of the old
parties. The Rojnait Catholics of
New York have already at various
times tried to secure State appropriation
for their own institutions by
means of the so-called "Freedom of
Worship Bill.'5" These are some of the
more important planks in Ihcir platform
whereby they differ from the old
parties. Finally they declare that they
recognize "no North, no South, ho
East, 110 West, but one people pledged
to our liberty and independence."

Frederick Grant is a son of his
father whom the Republicans of New
York have nominated for Secretary of
Sta4. Up to the present time Mr.
Frederick Grant has not distinguished
himself in any particulor way, but for
aught we know he would-make a moct
excellent secretary. The chief reason
for his nomination i?, however, his
name.
Robert Todd Lincoln is another son
of his father, who, in a gentle way,
practices law in Chicago, and who
doubtless is a very excellent citizen,
but lie has never yet achieved anything
i.-. ?>-.<% tmv /if f-votfnotc in nntitlo 111<5
name to be used in connection witn
the Presidency. His name is, however,
frequently mentioned for that
office. The "son of his father' plaD
is not an American idea, where genius
and energy alone lead to the greatest
political honors.
The greatness of the father docs not
always descend to the son, and the
magic of a name is riot Ike mighty
spell to draw around it the confidence
and support of the American people
unless that magic is accompanied by
good, hard sense.
".Local Influences.^
-Local influences arc very dangerous
things, and like all things which have
a power for evil, they are very powerful.
In this country they bend the
average politician to their purposes
with a force that is akin to destiuy..
They sometimes influence more than
the politician.
A little cotton factory springs up,
for example, in a little Southern town,
and a community which has borne for
generations the unjust burdens of a
protective tariff begins to ask for protection,
and the "local organ" becomes
the advocate of the "protective principle."
We are anxious that this country
should manufacture apart at least of
the" products of its fields; we are
rtlrrftT'f rra/l hnoi* <5 11 AW
rt;? c viiv/vuia^vu bv iivMt (MMW ?? ?*v >
cotton factory is being built; we want
one or two put np right hear at home,
and we are willing to put forth every
reasonable effort to accomplish this
end. Bat not even "local influences"
shall ever induce us to preach the unrighteous
gospel of the protectionists.
We would not do it were we ignorant
of the truth that protection does not
protect; and knowing as we do that
the system is but one degree removed
from the slave trade, we shall surely
not cease to attach it, even though our
conduct should have the effect of
hushing the hum of every spindle in
the South.
The Press.
In a normal condition of affairs
there will always be found two political
parties in every State which enjoys
a popular form of government.
And this condition of things is even
desirable. It will insure always that
thorough discussion of all measures i
of importance which alone can elicit j
truth. Indeed, it is hard to overestimate
the value of an intelligent
and patriotic opposition. It serves as
a check upon the party in power,
whose acts it is ever ready to scrutinize
with the utmost care, and whose
blunders it will surely expose at the
bar of public opinion. It serves as a
stimulus, too, upon the]dominant party,
teaching always the truth that power
can only be held -by wisely and judiciously
exercising it.
When from any cause a political
opposition does not or cannot exist,
the importance of a public and patriotic
press is multiplied. If this becomes
false to its mission, fawns upon
power and becomes the ready apologist
ot contemporary wrongs, there
will be serious cause to tremble for
the destiny of the State. History
emphasizes the truth that the forms of
liberty may survive long after the
substance has perished from the earth.
The danger where there is but
one political party is that every
thing will become statiocary; that
abuses will be condoned and frauds
go unexposed. That power will lapse
into the hands of a corrupt and irresponsible
ring. In this condition of
affairs nothing becomes so important
as that function which can alone be
performed by- a bold- virtuous and
independent press.
The Infallible Majority..
The spirit of our Jaws and the custom
of the country make voted subscriptions
to our railroads right and
proper, and there is no danger that
Greenville, or any other cay, will
have two many. Every line of railroad
that was ever built was needed,
and is still necessary, for we have
never heard of one having been abanbuned
after it could haul freight.
But so far as the abstract proposition
is concerned, it is not right for
for States, cities, towns and connties
to go in debt to promote enterprises
that will be operated by private per
sons ior private iram, j.ui ueui, is u uau.
thing for corporations as well as individuals.
But the "majority rule" is
so thoroughly engrafted upon everything
American that the majority can
build a "little hell of its own" for auy
corporation, provided the matter has
been submitted to a vote.?Pickens
Sentinel.
Carl Marx lias never uttered anything
more radically socialistic than
this deliverance of the Sentinel.
We hear a good deal of late of the
"majority rule," and the danger is
that we may hear much more in the
future; it is the sanctuary into which
all modern, social and political heresies
retreat. It is becoming daily
more evident that this dogma of an
infallible majority which seems to be
growing daily more popular in this
country, contains a menacc to liberty
such as it has never received until
now.
It seems to us that our esteemed
contemporary lias stated the doctrine,
in fortunate terras, in its most revolting
aspect. "The majority," it says,
"can build a little hell of its own,
provided the matter lias been submitted
to a vote."
Now tlie majority have a right, we
arc willing to concede, "to build a
little hell of their own," and to go
and live in it, but we protost against
their being allowed to force the hospitality
of their retreat upon aU unwilling
minority.
The simiie of our contemporary, as
we have intimated, is happily suggestive
; the majority are already
building the hell; the minority see it
and are protesting against it; are
vainly endeavoring to persuade men,
deat to the voice of reason, that there
are principles in the nature of things
which even a majority must respect.
Our contemporary admits that its
proposition in the abstract is wrong,
but says that "the spirit of our laws
and the custom of the country make
voted subscriptions to railroads iright
and proper." Can "the spirit of our
laws" and the "custom of the country"
make that right which is wrong?
But we deny ?;he right of the Sentinel
and its side to invoke the "spirit of
oar laws." The spirit of our laws is
against them, as can be shown ny
abundant authoritv. "The spirit of
our laws" is in harmony with the
spirit of liberty which seems now in
danger of being smothered by the
majority in that hell of their own,
which the Sentinel thinks they have a
right to build.

The Defects of the Criminal l-aw.
Judge Hudson Las concluded his
series of articles on "The Defect of
our Crimiual Law." The following
are the reforms which he would recommend
to the people and the Legislature
:
First. Outside of the city of Charleston
the office of coroner should be
united with that of the leading trial
justice resident at each county seat,
who usually is, and who should be
required to be, an attorney at law.
His duty at inquests should "be clearly
defined and rigidly exacted. It should
also be made his duty to carefully collect
the whole evidence, to collate and
arrange the facts, ancl to prepare the
case in this respcct for the solicitor.
He should also be required to attend
the trial and assist the solicitor in its
conduct, participating, if the occasion
requires it, in the argument. He
would not be listened to with prejudice
by the jury, and would not be
open to the assaults which counsel for
the defendant invariably hurl at attorneys
employed bv the lamily and
friends of the deceased. He would
furnish all the aid needed by the solicitor,
and his compensation should be
adequate to secure the services of an
efficient and competent attorney in
connection with the salary of trial
iustice.
Second. Cause a full panel of petit
jurors to consist of forty-eight, leaving
the defendant's right or' peremptory
.challenge as it now is, with the
right of the State enlarged to at least
five, and the right to u8tand aside"
undisturbed.
Third. In trials for capital offences
the jury should not be allowed to
separate until verdict rendered, or
until the case be otherwise ended;
and suitable arrangements for their
comfort in the meantime should in
each county be provided.
Fourth. Restore the Judge to his
legitimate privileges in criminal as
well as in civil trials?the right and
duty to "sum up" iff his charge to
juries by & review of the evidence.
The first recommendation meets onr
approval, and we can join in urging
it upon the Legislature. There is no
doubt but that the solicitors are taken
at considerable disadvantage, owing
to the defective preparation of causes
by coroners and trial justices. Especially
is this the case in those counties
other than the place of his residence,
where he has to depend almost solely
upon these officers for his knowledge
of the facts of the case. The Legislature
cannot do better than adopt the
suggestion of Judge Hudson in this
particular.
The second recommendation is also
a good one; it meets some of the difficulties
of our situation, and it denies
to the defendant no substantial right
which he now enjoys.
To the third recommeudation we
have no objection, but on the fourth
we cannot agree with the learned
author. To allow the Judge to "sum
up" is to make him one of the triers
of the facts; it is to minimise tne
function of the jury. The power of
the Judge even now is incalculable,
when he is only allowed "to state the
testimony and declare the law." Who
can say what it will not be, when he
is allowed to "sum up" or argue the
facts to the jury.
On the civil side of the Court we
see no reasonffihy the trial b^jury
should not be abolished, and we believe
in time that it will be; it is expensive,
it is cumbersome and less
competent than the Court. But in the
Criminal Court the institution must be
preserved in all of its integrity and
independence. It has its defects, it is
true, but it has its virtues also?its
blunders are the blunders of the people.
The institution, as we have it,
is the product of a stately growth?a
growth in favor of liberty, which
may be traced through centuries upon
centuries of social life.

cides, committed without ap- .
parent reason, or under so-called
"depression of spirits," are I
really prompted by nervous
prostration which is a fruitful '
source of insanity and crime
with all their grief and horror.
These facts are startling.
They threaten the very life of ;
the nation. They, assail the !
springs of its power and prosperity.
They wreck manhood's . :
strength and" woman's usefulness
and beauty.
I Every one should know the
causes. What are they ? The !:
answer is easy and terribly
plain: Our vicious personal
nfthits? rmr careless ana lawless
eating and drinking; the intense
mental and physical strain
arising from our mad race after
money, position and inHuence;
the fears and stmggles of poverty;
the use of narcotics and
stimulants; our fashion of
turning day into night and
night into day; and, briefly,
our > desperate willingness to
pay any price for an hour's
pleasure or success. So we
burn life's candle at both ends
and fill the lunatic asylums
and the graveyards.
The disease from which we
suffer and die is, in plain English,
TNervous Dyspepsia, as it
is seated in the Nerves and in
the organs of Digestion, Assimilation
and Nutrition. Healthy
digestion beiDg im ed or destroyed,
the whole body, nerves
included, is literally starved;
even, when there is no emaciation
to tell the sad story.
. Nervous prostration sends
out its warnings:?headache
in the morning; a persistent
dull heaviness or aching at the
base of the braili; waker ulness;
loss of appetite and disgust with
food; loss of mental energy and

reason;' eructations; bad
breath; foul mucous on the
teeth; occasional giddiness;
palpitation of the heart; sal- [
lowness of the skin; coated j
I tongue and gradual failure of
strength and ambition.
The remedy is a total abandonment
of the habits and customs
which cause the disease
in each individual case, and the
use of Shaker Extract of Roots
