Speaker Blaine.
The cunning and ingenious political prac-
tees of Speaker Blaine are well-known to
those who have narrowly watched his con-
duct. The invitation extended by him to
President Grant to be his guest at Augusta,
Me-, is part of the programme in his prcsi-
dental aspirations. ....
The object of political aspirants has always
been to secure the favor Of the President,
either seemingly or in fact, as an individual
Endorsement. The cry of C;esarism against
Grant has damaged any probability for
third nomination, even If they really ex-
isted; and Blaine, with his usual acuteneSs,
discovering this fact, is taking the initiative
and the first start in the next presidential
race, and in accordance with his own policy
discaims presidential aspirations with about
as much sincerity as Cesar rejected the inn
peral crown. IIHoN.

office, having been mentioned in that con-
nection, the chief object of his visit to that
city was to ascertain whether they were i'm

nothing to implicate those officers in wrong
doing.
This was the only matter which occupied

for the examination into the conduct of the
officers and employees connected with any

A TERRIBLE CYCLONE.

Great Damage to Property In Franklin
Tennessee,
The Nashville Banner of the Cd gives the
following account of terrible cyclone
that visited Franklin OH April 1st. The
account is as follows:
A terrible cyclone passed over this town
at $40 this morning, lasting about twenty
minutes. It is impossible to give details of
the damage. Hardly house in town es-
capped. In many instances entire roofs
were torn off and walls caved in. The
principal sufferers are the new Methodist
Church, the Court House, Pape & Camp
bell, Harrison & Bailey, w. j. Bennett,
Haynes & Andrews, Reu;e,o and Journal
Office, F. G.. Baltishwiler, Crutcher Hotel,
Franklin Mandatory, r. Raney, brick
depot. A very large number of buildings
are damaged. Great excitement prevails,
but have heard of butone accident to in
dividuals. A lady was injured by the cav.
ing in of wall.
From parties who arrived here from
Franklin, we learn that, just before the
storm burst upon the town, the atmosphere
grew dark, assuming leaden hue. ALI of
a sudden the unearthly, deafening roar of
fore it, filling the air full of binding dust
shingles, tin roofs, rafters, joists, boards
and bricks. The houses shook and trem-
bled, and were blown over, some of their
inmates making many narrow escapes.
Windows were driven out and the panes
dashed to pieces. The roar of the storm
was so great that the operator at the depot
was not aware that the whole rear part of
it had been leveled to the earth until after
it was all over. While Mr.. Balthshmiter
was engaged in saving his child, he was
struck upon the small of the back with a
flying piece of timber and badly hurt. The
cyclone was followed by rain, hail, tighten
ing and thunder.

DEATH OF A CONGRESSMAN.

Our dispatches this morning announce
the death of Hon. James Brooks, member
of Congress from New York. Mr.. Brooks
was born in Portland, Maine, November
10th, 1910. He has been for many years
connected with the American press, first
as Washington correspondent, then as
editor, and afterwards as foreign CORE
spondent for American newspapers.
In 1885 he was member of the
Maine Legislature. In 1886 he went to
New York and established the Express, of
which he has been the chief editor and
proprietor ever since. In 1s49 he. was
elected to the New York Legislature, and
was a member of the Constitutional Con-
vention in 1867. He was elected to the
thirty-frst, thirty-second, thirty-eighth,
thirty-ninth, fortieth, forty-frst, forty
second, and forty-third Congresses, general
~ by very large majorities, He was Demo
cratic in his lpolitics, and was regarded
as one of the leading men of his party. He
served as member Of the Ways and Means
Committee and distinguished himself as
I'LL diuCuC VI l. AVO AA"NO wv
trines. His paper has always advocated
Free Trade and fought Protective Tariff.
Mr.. Brooks has always stood high
with his colleagues in Congress, and,
until his unfortunate connection with
the Credit Mobilier affair, no
breath of suspicion was ever breathed
against him. Tits believed by many that
the modification which he felt at the man.
ner in which his name was connected with
that affair, was in part the cause of his
death. He was gentleman of scholarly
attachments and will be missed in the ma
tional councils.
In the spring of 1871, he started and
made voyage around the world, an &C
count of which he has published in a very
interesting volume. He contracted the dis
ease during this trip and has never been in
good health since.

IT isencouraging and at the same time
creditable to our city, to notice the steady
increase in our wholesale trade. Our mer-
chants have by fair dealing, by enterprise,
by advertising and by close buying in the
Eastern markets, built up wholesale trade
which is equal to that of any city in the
South, outside of Memphis or away from
the coast. Merchants in East Tennessee,
Western North Carolina, South Western
Virginia, Southern Kentucky and North
ern Georgia and Alabama now un-
derstand that they can buy goods
for their trade, just as cheap in Knoxville
as in Baltimore or New York-saving the
expenses of a trip East and the extra
freight. The advantage to Knoxville of
this heavy trade has been secured by the
enterprise of our merchants.
Now it is just as certain that we possess
superior manufacturing advantages, as it
is that we have superior commercial adj
vantages. And the only thing needed to
place Knoxville in the manufacturing bus
mess of the South, where she stands
in its commercial trade, is, that our
capitalists and real estate men throw into
the manufacturing business the same en-
terprise and fair dealing that our merchants
have infused into their trade. Cannot this
he done? Does not any sensible man real

THE LOSS OF THE ATLANTIC.

The details of the terrible Atlantic dis.
aster as they are published disclose some
.facts not at all creditable to the officers of
The vessel or the male portion of the crew
who survive the horrible disaster. That
not a single woman or even a child should
have been rescued is certainly significant.
The men must have been inhuman or ex-
cited beyond any ever before subject
ed to such dangers, or they would
have carried to shore some few, at least
of the helpless women and children who
persisted in the wreck. No excuses that
we can imagine as possible, will serve to
explain away the sad and terrible fate of
those poor, forsaken, helpless beings whose
lives were sacrificed within sight and al
most reach of hundreds of men who sur
vived the disaster. The officers Of the YES
sci, according to their own statements, are
not blameless. What fearful account
they must render for the loss of the hun
dreds confided to their care.

EAccoRDING to the United States census
Of 1870, the value of real estate and personal
property in Tennessee was $497, S41 SOL.
The county Assessors for the same year re-
ported 1888, 49,, 161. This enormous dis
crepancy will serve in some degree, to
show how loosely and inefficiently the
work of assessments performed. 1t is no
assessment at all. So far as its
correctness is concerned, it is a botch.
There is no more certainty about it than
throwing up "heads and tails" We trust
the importance of a thorough and equal
assessment of every mans property will,
after awhile, be appreciated and that it
will be done. If it can be done we will
witness a marked Improvement in public
finances, and no one will have cause for
complaint
