are cooperating with the Louis

the Visiting Republican States

triguing conspirators, who went to
New Orleans in the interest Of
Hayes, to make sure that the Re-

ted their villainy, indicted. The
spectacle would be an exhilera-
ting one. John Sherman, the Sec
tary Of the Treasury, would have
to respond In the scene of his crime
or confess his guilt. 1t would not
look seemly in him to hurry to a
Federal Judge on q habeas corpus
proceeding; Stoughton would have
to come home from the Russian
mission, and the other office hold
ers would have to HE them down
to louisiana to account for their
dirty work or stand condemned in
the eyes Of the world. The ugliest
phase of this whole business is that
every fellow who was concerned in
any phase Of this Returning Board

pointed to some lucrative Office by
Hayes with, we believe, the single
exception Of the colored barber
Casenave, who was probably re-

ties on men Of war and forts, ar
senals, etc., and requesting that q
bill be introduced in Congress for
bidding such employment and
making it a penal offence for any
U. s. officer to employ Mongolians.
Davis has replied that, although
he sympathises with the desire to
give employment to white labor,
he thinks it would be injudicious
to press the above mentioned mat
ter now. He also remarks in his
letter OF response, that it is hard
for people in California to realize
the difficulties encountered here by
those who are laboring to obtain
practical action on the Chinese
question and he adds that all the
members of the Pacific Coast dele
cation now consider it as wise and
necessary to concentrate thsir Of
forts upon two general PROPOSE
lions: LIST, the modification of the
Bulingame treaty, either directly
or indirectly. I'd, legislation re-
stricting Mongolian immigration.
Davis, therefore, writes that he
thinks it would be unwise to make
any efforts at present in the direc-
ton indicated and that he would
prefer to postpone for tho present
any action on the resolutions.
Luttrell to- day introduced bill

labor or service of which the trans
portation Of any Chinese subj ect to
the United States forms a part OF
the consideration, to enforce any
such contract shall be q felony,
punishable by from two to five
years. imprisonment or $1,000 to
$4,000 fine, or both. The bill also
provides that one half of each
fine shall be paid to the informant
and the other half to the Mongol-
ian with whom such contract shall
have been made, upon condition
that he or she shall Immediately
return to his or her native country.
The other sections of the bill pro-
vide the same penalties as above
for making any and all kinds OF
contracts for coolis labor or for
procuring and encouraging the inn
migration of Chinese into the
United States, or for attempting to
enforce contracts except according
to the law of the land. The bill
provides that every
con tract for the employment of
any Mongolians whatever, made
before or after their arrival in this
shall be void, and every
person entering into any contract
with Mongolians for their employ

~ The Urbana Herald brings to
light some rather startling facts
about the ownership of real estate in
Champaign county, Illinois. It is
said the real estate Of the county is
assessed at about S1l 100000, and
is mortgaged to Eastern creditors to
the extent of $4,000, OOO-over half
it's value. Taxes for this year
amounts to $416,00O, and the annual
interest on mortgage loans amounts
to $4,000. The total annual inter
est and tax of over 100000 az
above, de not include any of the
floating debt-only the mortgages 10
Eastern capitalists. Each acre in
the county must pay 81 81 to meet
the interest and taxes, and each man,
woman and child must pay annually
$22 81 as interest and taxes besides
the immense floating debt. This &C.
counts for the commercial failures
that are occurring in that section.
Champaign county is but fair sam
pie of the condition OF all the coun-
ties in that part of the State.

Who will be the strongest and most
acceptable candidate before the people
for the CHARACTERISTIC This is a per-
tinent question. Both political parties
viii have their respective candidates in
the field, but there are hundreds of vo-
SO much by the political status of a ju-
dicial candidate as they are by his quail
ifications to discharge the high and re-
sponsible trust committed to his charge.
The Ofice of Chancellor is probably one
of the most important in the State. 1t
is one of the greatest bulwarks to our
freedom for litigants and their friends
to know and to feel that their differen-
ces are settled in a fair, impartial and
equitable manner. A clear and compre-
hensive knowledge of legal rights,-a
spotless character,-and the virtues of
decision, energy and experience are
qualifications which the people should
demand the candidate to possess who
asks to be clothed with the honOrs and
responsibility of this office These
qualifications are all possessed in one
eminent degree by F. 81. Fulkerson,
Esq, of Hawkins county. BY nature
modest and retiring-with public and
private characters pure and unsullied
and with long experience in the Chan
Gerry practice, he is to-day the peer of
any Chancery lawyer in East Tennessee.
Mr., Fulkerson is a self-made man. His
integrity, energy and industry have
placed him where he is. He commenced
the battle of life with no 6aclting-ercept
a clear head-and a brave heart-and
his close attention to his business has
made him noted as a safe counselor and
a thorough lawyer
Mr.. Editor, there is a strong desire
among the people in the counties of
Claiborne, Hancock, Hawkins, Ham
blen. Jefferson and Granger, that Mr..
Fulkerson should become a candidate to
be our next Chancellor. ! have not a
word to say against the Honorable Gen
tleman who is the present incumbent,
but rotation tn office has healthful influ-
ence-and is to the body politic-what
constant change and motion is to the
waters-it keeps it from becoming stag

Sheriff Cobb were both killed and two
others badly wounded. Some days since
Rhea and others broke the peace, for
which there was a. States warrant in

Notwithstanding eur troubles, we feel
some anxiety in regard to the coming

any other man in this division, as he
has been long and favorsbly known, by

A Gentle Hint.

In our style of climate, with its sud
den changes of temperature, rain, wind
and sunshine often intermingled in a
single day,-its is no wonder that our
children, friends and relatives are so
frequently taken from us by neglected
colds, half the deaths resulting directly
from this cause. A bottle of Boschee's
German Syrup kept about your home
for immediate use will prevent serious
sickness, a large doctors bill, and per-
haps death, by the use of three er four
doses. For curing Consumption, Hemor-
rhages, Pneumonia, Severe Coughs,
