WHAT IT MEANS.

The glorious triumph of yesterday
means simply that the people are amply
able to take care of themselves when
they viii. Only this and nothing more.
1t shows that the people can choose
their own standard bearers and elect
them whenever they try. 1t shows also
the means by which this may be-ac-
complshed, namely: active organ
lzation and energetic harmony.
Profting by this cheering les
son, we must not rest on our
laurels, but press on to other victories.
We live under the form of self-govern-
ment. When the people abdicate the
exercise of self-government, SCALA
wags and bummers seize their chances.
Government is the peoples affair with
us, and when the people neglect their
own affairs, it is unreasonable to ex-
pcct the groundlings to do better by
them. The latter resort to all devices
for success. So long as bad men con-
spire, good men must combine. Co.
operation and active organization for
the keynote to success. Whenever the
people want to succeed they can and
will do so.

NOBLY DONE.

We do but scant justice to the Dem
ocratic and Conservative Executive
Committee when we say that their con-
duct of the canvass just closed entities
them to the lasting gratitude of the
people of Davidson county. But
for the energy, sagacity and firm
ness displayed in so extraordinary
a degree by its chairman and
members, the victory could not
have been won. At no state Of the
struggle were they unequal to the de-
mands made upon theirresources, while
the compactness of organization which
they effected under such peculiar cir
cumstances was almost unparalleled in
the history of Tennessee politics.
When weagain march upon the enemy,
may they be there to lead.

One long summer afternoon there came
to Mr. Davidson'S the most curious speci-
men Of an old bachelor the world ever
heard OF. He was old, gray, vrinkled and
odd. He hated old women, especially old
maids, and wasn't afraid to say so. He
and Aunt Patty had it hot whenever
chance drew them together; vet still he
came, and il was noticed that Aunt Patty
took unusual pains with her dress when
ever lie was expected.
Cne day the contest waged unusually
strong, and Aunt Patty left in disgust and
went out into the garden.
"That bearr' she muttered to herself, as
she stopped to gather flower which at
tracted her attention.

voice behind her.

ST. LOUIS.
The story Of the Forged Cotton Re-
eeiPts-One Of the Ways OF Bridging

the Panic.
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 6.-Bethel c. Alexander.
charged with forging cotton warehouse re-
ceiptS, made full statement Of the affair
to-day, for the benefit of the public as well
as creditors. He says the first forged re-
ceipts were made last December to prevent
suspension or failure in business, and that
none have been issued since April.
The whole amount of spurious re
ceipts issued cannot be ascertained, for il
appears he made new ones to take up
the old ones when what he raised on them
became due. In the meantime, he used
genuine receipts in the usual way, and in
July he held nearly 1000 bales of cotton,
out of the proceeds of which he intended
to take up the forg d certificates. The pro-
ceeds of the cotton sold to Phelps & Co.
would have reduced the bad receipts one
half. The total amount of forged receipts
now out, he SAYS, is one hundred and sixty
seven thousand dollars, distributed rs fol-
lows: Bank of the West, $4,000; German
Savings, $4,000; Mechanics $4,000;
Fourth National, uncovered, $4,000; Third
National, $4,000; Fuse q Booker, com
mission house, $4,000; Hon. Erastus
Wells, $4,000. His assets, lie as
serts, are worth $4,000; liabii-
tiles, s. 5000. He refers to the fact
that all the money raised on the bogus re-
ceipts was put into his business instead of
being spirited away as evidence that he did
not intend to defraud any one. He aequits
his partners of blame, saying they knew
nothing of his fraudulent transactions. He
is still in prison, and will probably remain
there until it is decided what action shall
be taken in the matter. His creditors held
a meeting this evening to discuss what
shall be done in the premises, but the Ie-
suit has not yet transpired. Alexander
offers to assist in the settlement of the af-
fairs of the firm, and says he can do it at
great saving to the creditors. he paid
young Sheppard $1,000 for making the
forged signatures.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. 6.-Shepherds-
vile, Bullet county, Ky, was the scene of
great excitement Tuesday. 1t appears that
on election day the friends Of Carpenter,
the Republican candidate for County Judge,
distributed whisky by the bucket fulls to
negroes atthepollS. There was much drunk
eness among them, and a difficulty arising
between them and the whites, a large body
of negroes pursued him to the hotel, but
he got out the back way and escaped. The
disorder continued the next day, and in a
difficulty between the negroes and a French
man, he shot and killed the ringleader of
the drunken mob. The infatuated negroes
pursued him and he also took refuge in the
hotel. ThenegrOAs surrounded the hotel and
with drawn pistols demanded his surrender.
Meanwhile, white people collected and the
danger of the bloody collision was immi-
nent. The negroes finally dispersed. Du-
ring yesterday and to-day the whites from
the surrounding country have been coming
into town. Great fears are expressed that
a collision between the whites and blacks
may vet occur.
