A DIFFEREKCE

When President johnson made a
tour of the northwest, accompanied
by Secretary Seward, General Grant,
Secretary Wells, Admiral Farragut
and General Custer, among other pla-
ces be visited Pittshurg, the city gov
eminent Of which was then Radical
and Of course very much opposed to
the president. A proposition to re-
ceive him with honor was by them
therefore almost unanimously voted
down. This did not ofcourse prevent
Mr.. johnson from visiting Pittsburg.
When he arrived he was received by
a hireling mob who showered abusive
epithets upon him and Kissed him
wherever, in response to the few
Democrats present, he attempted
to speak. Admiral Farragut re-
proved them but without Wis
ible effect; the order had gone
out from Washington to insult
johnson and to treat him with
indignity wherever and whenever be
made his appearance, and the mob
obeyed their leaders. In the face Of
this shameful and ~disgraeeiul record,
the Radicals Of Pittsburg now ask
that Grant shall be received with all
the consideration and respect the
President Of the United States is D
titled to, as such, and without eonsid-
of party. And the Demo-
.raey, mindful only of what is right,
what is due their own s~elf-respect as
citizens OF the United States, Weld

President Of the United States, will
be received by ali the citizens of Pitts

THE CLAIMs OF WEST TENNESSEE
AGAIN DENIED.

Hereafter, when a man from West
Tennessee becomes a candidate for
any Office before the Legislature, on
entering the gloomy portals of the
capital, he should write over the door:
" Re aCho enters here leaves hope BE-
hind" He certainly enters with a
dangerous if not q fatal legacy.
But he should go in like the leader
OF a forlorn hope, besef with terrible
perils, but certain o great reward and
fame If he succeeds where all Others
have Iamentably failed. These re-
marks are suggested by the result Of
the elections in the Legislature yes
terdsy. 1t will be see from U dis
patches that the claims of West Ten
nessee for a decent division Of the
Offices were again ignored. This
section of the State to secure
its rights for the future must
assert them. Two years ago West
Tennessee was refused everything.
United States senators, Governors,
president of the senate, speaker Of
the house, Secretary Of State, every
thing we're denied West Ten
nessee, except the luxury Of paying
taxes. Because the claims Of West
Tennessee have been ignored for the
last fifty years, that Is M reason why
they should be spurned at present,
unless our submissiveness has inspired
the other sections Of the State with
contempt. What o1ense has West
Tennessee committed that all the
benefits Of Legislation and government
should innure to other sections of
the State? The selfish greed which
has been excluding West Tennessee
from g share in the honors and Offices,
while paying the largest portion Of
the taxes, viii excite sntagOnisms and
resentments which viii some day be
difficult to quell. Ali the benefits Of
government, all the offices of honor
and profit fnure to East and Middle
Tennessee, whilst the productive
wealth, the taxes that psmper the
greedy cOrmorants, flows from the
Mississippi river. Is West Tennessee
always to be the "hewer Of wood and
the drawer Of water?" The claims of
Chester, of Crews, of EnlOe and 9th
ers we're UnceremOniously passed
over, and the hOnors given to other
localities. Is this just? Is it

Tennessee Is not alone nor singular
among the southern States for the
suierings she has endured at the
hands Of the Radical ring which has
managed Southern affairs in Congress
since 1866. Mississippi has borne her

1901 her taxable property was valued

1t is surely time for good men to
combine and rescue the name Of
America from disgrace. There must
be no cOnsorting with thieves.
The Democratic party Of New York
has determined to wash its hands
of the thieves who have robbed
the Taxpayers; and if the Radicals
will purge the South of the carpet
bag rogues and the knaves who
are depicting the national treasury,
the name of American would cease to
suggest a seething caldrOn Of cOrrup-
ton. The impUnity with which men
now steal teaches the dangerous lesson
that villsiny prOspers better than
honesty; that integrity is the luxury
OF fools only; that, in politics, all pre-
tence to principle is a hollow sham.
Indeed, the people seem to be not
only demoralized but debsuched. The
lesson in New York, the corruption
that permeates every fibre and liga-
ment Of the Federal government,
should teach the people Of Tennessee
their duty. Already we hear the
whisperings of robbery at Nashville.
The people of Tennessee will soon be
engulphed in the maelstrom which
has swallowed up New York, and
which is about to wreck the nation,
unless they keep q vigilant eye on
their public servants. The people
have within themselves the power to
correct all the evils that beset the
country. They must arise in their
majesty and crush out the rings, the
rowdies and penthouse politicians
and elect good men to Office.
We do not mean by this advice to
party organizations, for good
can be elected to Office through
the fundamentally Of party Orgsniza-
lion as easily and surely as through
an independent combination. But
this cannot be accomplished unless
the quiet, honest, industrious citizens
turn out and give the moral strength
their names in the work Of dissolv- ,
.ng rings and tricksters. The business !
nan, the industrious and thrifty clti-
zen never give any attention TO these
matters until, as now in New York, D
he moral sense Of the community is g
hooked at the enormity of the rob
,eries committed by self-constituted
iDgs. De Tecqueville, in his famous 4
york called Democracy in America"
many years since, said that -
be one danger Of our system was "the
elish combination Of those who pay
title o no taxes against the smaller
umbers On whom the burdens of
axstion must necessarily rest" The
safety is for all goOd.men to.turn =
ut and attend the conventions, the
ard and district meetings, and see
it that none but good men are nom -,
lated and elected. "

The Early Days Of Chicago.

Mr.. James Thompson writes to the
editor of the Randolph Ill.) Plaindeal-
er, letter containing some interesting
"reminiscences Of the early days of CHI
cago. He says:
81 laid off the first lots ever laid out
in Chicago, in the year 1928, I think.
I laid off four hundred lots by order of
the Commissioners Edmund Roberts, OF
Kaskaskia, DR.. Jayne, of Springfield,
and another whose name do not rec
ollect; he was from Alexander county.
There was only one hotel or boarding
house in place. There was an election
held at the time we were there for cap
tain of militia company, and the
election was warmly contested by two
prominent men Of the place, and I
think all the legal voters attended the
election and voted. When counted
there were twerty-seven in all.
''There was small fort on the bank
of the lake, near the mouth Of the
Chicago river. It was guarded by
about fifty men, who prevented the
Indians from doing mischief
1--WE also ran the line of the canal
from the mouth of the Fox River
where Ottawa now stands-to the fork
of the Chicago River, distance of
nlnety-fve miles Il think), but there
was no person living near the line of
the canal at that time
eve also laid off the town of o.
iowa, as it is now settled, above and
below the Fox River; and on the south
side of the Illinois River there was
not any person living where the town
now stands when we surveyed it.
"We did not lay off and survey
lots to the extent Of tho town as it
now is-"

A Cure for IOCkiaW.

DR.. Demarquay has discovered new
method of treating that species of
lockjaw which is caused by wounds.
1t possesses this advantage over all
other methods that have been tried,
that while they have invariably failed,
it has been successful in two cases. It
appears that the persons attacked by
lockjaw are particularly sensitive to
cold, which aggravates all their symp-
toms and greatly increases their suffer.
ings. Accordingly DIR. Demarquay
placed his two patients, one of whom
had received deep wound in the calf
of his leg, while in the other case the
lockjaw seizure had followed upon the
amputation of limb, in room heat
ed at from 81 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit,
where they could perspire freely with
out fear Of dIaughts. The spasms aud
muscular contractions which form the
chief features in lockjaw were relieved
by intra-muscular injections of NOR
phine, the places selected for these in
jections being those where the muscu-
lar contractions were most painful.
The result of this treatment was that
the patients were soon able to open
their mouths and assuage their terrible
thirst, which is one of the concomitants
OF lockiaw, and ultimately recovered.
