Bishop Wightman recently preach
ed in Denver, Col, and the local pa
per in connection with his comments
thereupon, took occasion to pay q
handsome compliment to young
lady who is well remembered in Pu-
laski:
The services in the evening of
Sunday were acceptably supple
mented by we'll organized choir,
the leading soprano Of which was
sustained by Miss Mamie Lester,
and the basso by Mr.. DIN Brinker.
The principal features of the music
were the vocalizations of Nearer,
NY God to Thee" and Jesus,
Lover of My Soul" the latter being
sung to the popular air, when the
Swallows Homeward Fly" Mr..
Drinkers voice is too favorably
known to lovers of true music 20 be
benefited by anything that could
be said of it in thie connection,
but that of Miss Lester was a
charming surprise to the strangers
who were present. 1t is pure so
prano, rich, strong and flexible, and
is used without any apparent effort.
1t will be valuable acquisition 90
our musical entertainments this
season, If the young lady can be
persuaded TO let the public have the
opportunity ii hearing it utilized in
other than sacred music, II is per
fectly well qualified for concert per
formances, and, with study and
practice, would be justified in max
ing more pretentious essays.

The resolution adopted by the
Senatorial convention. which seems
to puzzle some people, means when
stripped of verbiage, simply that
the county entitled to the candi-
date unde- the old agreement, and
no other, shall put candidates in
aomination before the convention.
That county may place as many
names as she pleases before the CON
venuon, and the other counties
must select from the names so pre- e
scented. Thus, two years hence.
Wayne alone can place candidates
before the convention, because she
Is entitled TO the Senator, and there
fore entitled to suggest his name to

Yellow fever has never been
known to become an epidemic al
snch an altitude as ours. A case
might be brought here from a lower
altitude. but it would not spread
among our people. We are nearly
900 feet above the level OF the sea,
and we think there is but little feaI
of it ever existing here as an cpl

Perhaps our contemporary does
not know that it has been known
30 prevail 1000 feet above the Sea.
Altitude has no more to do with
yellow fever than radical has with

SCHEDULE.
No Nomination.

The failure of the Congressional
Convention to effect a nomination
is greatly to be regretted. Perhaps
no blame can be laid to any one or
section, but it is pity that personal
preference could not be made to
give way for the good of the people
and the party. We are not so much
welded to either or all the present
candidates but that we would gladly
take either of them or some other
good man if harmony demanded it,
and we call upon the people in this
and other counties to bring them
selves into subsection to this feel
ing. 1t is right. No man or set of
men hold the party machinery at
their disposal, but the party which
has so often served them in con-
summating their ambitions ends
now has a right to demand of them
that they assist in securing harmo-
ny in its ranks to the end that vic
tory may accrue. We intend no re-
Election upon either candidate when
we say that the party does not be-
long to either of them, and we de-
mand of them as citizen and for
the citizens, as a democrat and for
the democracy, that if it Is neces-
sary that the convention should go
outside when it next meets, that
they stand not in the way. This
time, perhaps, it could not be avoid
ed-the next time IT MUST BE !
Who dares to claim for lis man that
the party has no higher end than
his election? Who dares to say he
is right in swearing to stand by his
man to the bitter end and block the
convention rather than see some
other man nominated? Shame upon
such democracy If your favorite
cannot get it, gracefully retire him
and magnanimously assist in get
ting some other good man. The
next House is in danger. The 9TH
Congre. District of Tennes-
see, so largely democratic, now
stands in danger of sending a re-
publican there just at the time when
q democrat is most needed-all be
cause a spirit seems to prevail with
each man to have his man or none.
We want none of that-we must
have none of it, AS n citizen of the
district and as a Waterman upon
the democratic tower, we demand
that the party be served before in
dividuals. Give us Moore, or Bond
or Whitthorne, if you can; but if
not, give us Wright or Cox or Rose
or Bullock or Wilkes or Nixon or
Taliaferro or Jones or McCallum,
or any good man from anywhere.
The convention must nominate or
the party be disintegrated and made
the sickly servant of man. Dem
ocrats should show the grand traits
which distinguish them at a juno
ture when life Is the stake.

We are interested in finding an antidote
against the mole. The blind ditchers have
not done our plants any serious Injuries yet,
but they are very numerous on our little
garden farm, and we apprehend trouble
from them if we cannot thin them out in
some way. In reading up the subject we
find that many writers speak kind word
for the mole and claim that he does more
good than harm, by eating up the grubs,
wire worms, etc., while he does no injury
to plants, except occasionally exposing the
roots and tubers that lie in his way One
writer says that it is not the moles that eat
potatoes and other roots, whose destruction
is often charged to the mole, but grub
worms and field mice. The question is
still an open one whether the mole does
the mischief or not, but in our opinion
suspicious are against him. Among the
ways of getting rid of him, one is to pour a
small quantity Of coal oil in his runs, and
cover the openings over so as to keep the
offensive order in; another method is to
place pieces of tin or glass in the burrows
sloping upward in such a way as to turn
the mole out upon the surface when he
encounters them. When he is thus brought
up some one must be ready to dispatch
him.
