That the tariff is a locaJ issue was a Democratic enunciation by authority, General Hancock having so declared it. Of course that was in the days of long ago, when the Democratic party, tis it is today, was in search of an issue iind took up the brilliant and gallant soldier only togo to fearful defeat, and when Hancock made his famous announcement the cusses were deep on one side and the snickers were loud on the other. But now comes that stal wart Democratic at all times organ, the Charleston News and Courier, und inferentially plants itself on the Han cock platform in its demand for a tariff tax on tea, and all because South Car olina has gone into tea raising and the industry is in its Infant stage. The News and Courier makes its inferen lial insistence that the tariff is a local issue plainer by pointing out that Con noeticut is coining money because of the tariff on Sumatra tobacco, and it wants to know wherein Connecticut is any better than South Carolina In the following quotation from its editorial: "Take a practical case: Suppose a ship should come into the port of Bos ton bringing as part of its cargo a lot of tobacco grown in Sumatra and a lot of tea grown on the near mainland of China. Why should the tea be admit ted free, to the injury of the Carolina tea growers, and a tax of $1.50 a pound be collected from the tobacco for the protection of the Connecticut tobacco growers? If these conditions were reversed and the government should Impose a protective duty on tea and admit Sumatra tobacco free, Is it not altogether probable that our Yankee cousins would resent the dis crimination against them and heave the whole lot of the favored product into the waters of Boston harbor in their righteous indignation?" Just so—why should It? And why shouldn't South Carolina, wanting a tariff on tea grown in South Carolina, believe in tariffs on iron and on steel and on the thousand and one other ar ticles grown in the United States, mined in the United States or produced in the United States by American workingmen in tho employ of Ameri can miners, manufacturers, farmers and other producers? But the leaven Is working. The only difference be tween the Republican and the Demo cratic parties on the tariff 13 that the latter regards it as a local Issue and wants protection to local industries— When it thinks nobody is looking— While the former regards tho interests of the entire country aud, believing the tariff to be a question of general appli cation, proceeds to apply its benefits wherever there is an American interest or an American workingman. But the News and Courier Is remind ed that taxes on ten have been pro vocative of troubles between nations, though nothing now appears to be dis turbing the relations between the Unit ed States and South Carolina, bat just how Mr. Bryan will regard the demand of the Palmetto State is another story. •-Cincinnati Tribune. Mr. Cleveland Re-enter*. It was a year ago transparently ob vious to those familiar with Mr. Cleve land's methods that a hen was on. The organization of a club to supply him a pretext and an arena, his appearance under the same roof with his hated en emy, Ilill; his dallying with Tammany Hall, his sudden interest in reviving Democracy, the footlights of rrinceton burning low and the Mugwump orches tra all along the line below the stage playing soft Lydian airs, "He won't be n candidate, lie may be a candidate, but don't give It away!"—these tilings could not be mistaken. A little prema turely perhaps the New York World Btrlkes tho gong, and, behold, the stage Is ■! lioori of light, and in the center.

Never Has Been, Sever Will Be. There is still talk of "a broad nation al policy" as regards the tariff, which Would mean disregarding everything and everybody and the making of a tariff to suit those who produce noth ing. Tariffs have always been made heretofore to suit American manufac turers and producers. Now It Is an nounced that policy must be changed and the doctrine of protection must be made to mean "a broad national pol icy," disregarding every selfish thing and acting only from humanitarian and patriotic motives. Such a tariff has never been enacted aud never will be. The men who talk about such pol icies are idle dreamers.—Des Moines (la.) Capital. ' Bargains!
