W. D. BRowNLow, Familiarity known
as "Parson Brownlow, died in Knox
vile, Tennessee, on the both ult. He
was born August 80, 1905, and was,
when death found him, nearly q
years old. He became a Methodist
preacher before he attained his major
ity, and as early as 1928 engaged in
politics. In 1882 he was a fearless
opposer of Calhoun's notification doc
trine, but always was a Southerner
at heart and defended slavery as long
as it had an existence. Early in his
political life he predicted that the
question would shake the Govern
ment to its foundation, and avowed
his intention to stand by the Govern
ment when the time came.
He was for long time the editor of
the Knoxville Wing, during which
time he gained the appellation
of the Fighting Parson. He
was a Wing as long as that
party had an existence. As soon
as the rebellion Of 1861 was ilaugu-
rated he became warm supporter Of
the Government, and was twice Inn
prisoned by the Rebel authorities. He
voted for Mr.. Lincoln at his second
election, and was ever after a Repub-
lean. In 1865 he became Governor

MOUNTAIN OF SALr.-In the State of

mountain of salt. 1t is very pure and
so hard that it has to be blasted and

1t is taken across the Colorado river
into Arizona and sold at $40 per ton;
from there it is distributed to the diff.
ferent towns in Arizona, where it is re-
tailed at about FIVE cents per pound.

WH1sKY.-We are not addicted TO
the use of this article as a beverage,
and would to God that all our readers
were as we are in this respect. But
thew are not. Men do drink, and per-
lbaps will continue to drink while time
lasts. Notwithstanding our admonl-
tons. And accepting this view OF
the subject as correct, if people must
drink, let them drink that which will
do the least injury to the mind and
health. 1t is we'll known to some,
though not to the general public, that
all cheap Whistles imported into this
country are adulterated and drugged
so as to render them injurious to the
human system and destructive to the
mind. Temporary insanity and un'
dermined constitutions are the fruits
of the use of these drugged liquids
called whisky.
There is distillery in our Terrific,
nv that manufactures a pure article Of
whisky that is safer to drink than any
that can be imported at or near the
same price, and in addition to its puri
tv there are other reasons in favor oil
its use. It's home production. Every
barrel of it that is made gives a
market to the farmer for the amount
of grain required, and to the laboreT
for the amount of labor required in its
manufacture. 1t keeps money al
home and assists in advancing the
general prosperity. The price is very
much lower than that of imported
whisky.
If we could by one scratch of the
pen Danish whisky as beverage
from the face of the earth we would
gladly do it. But we cannot. The
next best thing we can do is TO ad
wise yoa to buy and use that which is
cheapest, least injurious and produced
at home. G. Jacobs sells his whisky
we understand, at prices ranging from
$3.50 to $3.50 per gallon, according tc
age. AS it attains age, whisky be
comes freed from fusil oil, so we are
told.
