The Logical Results ct Protection"
The Phenomena of the Day ana
the Signs of the Times.
en sare ona
These days are quickened with
industrial reform. Old party
lines have come to cross and re-
cross one ancther 1n & tangle
past tracing, and old-fashioned
party men stand in confused
alarm, uncertain 1f they are with-
in or without an enemy's lines,
and sorely tempted to enlist
under a new banner where they
may be sute of their comrades
avd fight tor a known end. It is
atime when @ conscientious citi-
zon will embrace a doctrine that
he knows.toTbe only half truth.
He will do it in sheer despera-
tion, in the hope of finding at
least an honest leader once more.
If oar legislators, engrossed in
their work of succoring distress-
ed island peoples far out in the
sea, would but enatch a moment
to listen to the undertone from
their own States, they would
possibly hear something to alarm
them.
* % *
The two most signifivant phe-
nomena of the day are the
growth of trusts, with the agita-
tion against them, and_ the
~growth of the socialistic idea. |
Both of these moyements spring
directly from the system that has
been the mainstay of the Repub-
lican party for thirty years.
Yhey have grown a8 It grew.
The Republican policy of pro-
tection was born of crimipal ig-
norance, and amounts today. to
criminal conspiracy. What wa,
once in the minds of the people a
vague wonder if they got their
due is to-day a positive convic-
tion that they are being robbed.
Bat the protection microbe bas
battened so Icng upon their
brains that they cannot think
clearly all at once. They have
seen the great trusts thrive so
astoundingly as to make it plain
that they enjoy immunity from
ths ordinary laws of trade.
They have looked for the secret
of this paradox and have found
that the trusts buy their privi-
leges irom the political parties.
and that these privileges are
known in the market as oprotece
tion to American industries.�
~They haye heard one of the chief
officers of the sugar trust tell
unblushingly on the witness

largest donations to. the party
most likely to prevail. Along all

man,� avd the silly falsity of
William McKinleyTs plea that
othe foreigner pays the tas,� but
they have seen vast fabulous fur-
tunes made by virtue: of protec-
tion, and so they still consider 1t
a blessing:

%
But the only two classes in the
community of any vital impor-
tance, the farmers and the labor -
liog mon, have assured themselyes
beyond any question that protec~
tion thus far has not reached to
them. The farmer sees that he
has been paying tribute on all
that he bought, and gettlag no
-|tribute whatever on what he sold.
The laboring man has learned
that he has been paying duties
to insure the home market to his
employer, while that employer
had the markets of the world
from which to choose his labor.
And so these poor dupes of pro-
tection try blindly to right their
wrongs by more protection. In
ten years the Populist party has
grown to be a power solely be-
cause it saw the monstrous wrone
of unequalT; roiection. Lt is to-
day the only body of logical and
honest p*otectionists in existence.
Then we have another echool of
protectionists who believe that
the goverpment, by 4 simple
trick of legislation, cvn make one
dollar into two. And there is
another growing school which,
under the tutelage of Lubin, of
California, aims to square thipgs,
so far as the farmer is concerned.
by paving him a bounty upoo his
wheat und corn and hogs. Of
course itTs right, if a bounty on
steel rails or refined sugar is
r.ght, and, of course, justice de-
mands thatthe ditch digger and
the skilied mechanic should each
be paid a bounty upon their daysT
work.
* * *
ff be gradual assimilation of
this truth by the urcple means
one or two things: either the
blackmailing essay at protecticn
which has kept the Republican
party in funds for years will be
utterly dcne away with, and a
system of direct taxaticn for
revenue substituted; or else
protection will be extended to its
logical end, and we shali have
the era of Siate socialism now
promised by Mr. Debs. It is not
altugether @ happy prospect.
Before they will do wholly away
with protection the people must
learn @ stil! harder trath, which 1s
that the State cannot create a
penny in yalue; tha¢ it cannot
benefit one man cr class without
robbing another, and that hence
it cannot beneit all, since there
would be no one to rob. They
are far from realiziug this at
present. They lean rather toward
the socialistic side, and President
McKinley 1s adding the weight
of his administration to that Jean-
ing. When it is no longer a
scandal that manufacturers may
write their own schedules in a
tariff bill, and when import duties
more flagrantly tuan ever benefit
those mannfacturers that have
paid for them, there 1s clearly a
socialistic fever that will not go
down until it has had a few an-
plications of cold experience."

This is rather bad, to be sure,
and yetin considering the case
we need to deal fairly by the
facts. The black people con-
stitute less than one third of the
population of North Carolina.
By themselves they are helpless.
During. reconstruction. when
many of the whites were disfran-
chised, and afterwards until
things got settled down, the black
people, with certain white
associates, had charge of the
State government, and it is a
matter of universal agreement
that the combination made a
mess of thing. The white peo-
pie got tired of the situation, got
together, and took charge of
affairs themselves, as they were
entitled to, by right of numbers,
intelligence and property- For
twenty years we had peace and
good government; justice was
equally administered, taxation
was light and prosperity and
contentment bad their homes
with us. The new condition was
better for the blacks as well as
for the whites. But things were
too quiet for certatn designing
politicians. The officers were
not going their way and never
would while politics was normal.
So these begat the Farmers
Alliance, which begat the
Populist party, and this civided
the white people, a part of whom
fused with the negroes and
carried the State. And so we
have a Governor who is ofull
treightec with spite and malice
agaiust the people;� for United
States Senators two men who
would never be heard of if the
people were at themselves; a
Legislature which has brought
acandal after scandal upon tie
name of North Carolina ; a gov~-
ernmeut at once inefficient and
enormously extravagant, and
finaily, in some of the counties,
as Richmond, ignorant black
met in charge of the public
schools.
But we respectfully protest
against zuy war upon the black
people on account of the StateTs
political condition. They haye
been banded solidly to together
all the time, and we have had fair
notice from them that whenever
they could get recruits enough
they would take possession of the
State again as they had done in
the latter part of the sixties. We
repeat and lay emphasis upor the
fact that they can do nothing of
themselves, and it is simply their
good fortune that through the
and the Populist party they have
attached to themselves enough

No. The thought that igno-

one, out let us be just. Who 1s

Plainly the white men who have

and united their political tortunes
with those ef the negroes. ~TLese
whites and the negroes are in

their share in thedivide. Speak:

SHAH AND LASSIES.
The Monarch Witnessed a Highland Fling
by Five Huadrid Seotch Maids.
oWhen I was at the Paris exhibi-
tion,TT said Maleom Dunean cf Glas-
gow, ~~the shah cf Persid was one of
the honored guests. He wa: a good
soul. Western civilization h. | made
an impressicn on him, and 1o ruler
in the oricnt hed a profounder re-
spect for the wonders that British
and American genius have accom-
plished. Western trade and com-
nverce had no more liberal or intel.
ligent patren than this seme shah,
Persia lost a liberal ruler when the
assassin'Ts bullet laid him low. But
this has naught todo with my story.
oOne night the shah visited one
of the French theaters of the lower
grade. When he arrived, the houso
was full. ~The oriental monarch re-
ceived the best the house afforded,
but that was not even one exclusive
box. Thesbah and his friends were
ushered into one of the front boxes.

of the evening a litho limbed dan-

the only ocenpant of the box when
his party arrived. When his en-
thusiasm carried him to his feet,
the ScotTs vision was obscure.
Shah or no shah, the Scot had paid
to see the show, and see the show
he proposed to do.
oLaying a heavy hand on the
shoulder of the oriental despot, the
Scot said: ~If you ever come te Scot
land, ask for MacKenzie, the laird
of Kintoul. He'll show you better
oThe earnestness of the Scot im-
pressed the shah even more than
MacKenzie, the

for all the country round were as-
sembled in the lairdTs ancestral cas-

tossed their slippers sky ward at the
first note of the Scotch bagpipe.
Then 500 plaid clad forms gyrated
through the movements of an old
fashioned highland fling. Those
thousand feet, that stole boldly out
and then modestly retired beneath
the shelter of ScotiaTs national «ol-
ors, made a sight which the harems
of the sultan and the feasts of the
east could not equal. The shah was
captivated, He glided into the midst
of the feminine throng, and a pretty
