THE KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE

WV NouiuS IcSiucutioA
year, the DAILY CHRONICLE will
take an active part in the vigorous
discussions of all political issues
involved, and will, at the same
time, keep its readers fally posted
on all the important events of the
day. 1t will do whatever is honest
and legitimate to promote the sue
cess of the Republican ticket,
placing fidelity to the interests of
that party above any personal aims
or privata ambition. To this end
it will favor the selection of good
men with clear records, per-
sonal and political, for standard
bearers in the coming canvass, and
when such are selected, it will do
everything reasonable to secure
their success.
in State politics, the CHRONICLE
will support no man for any office,
from Governor down to constable,
who is not in favor of paying the
State debt upon terms satisfactory
to the creditors Of the State. II
will oppose the efforts of repudia-
tionists to drag the entire State
down to their low and degraded
standard, first, last and all the time,
and even though the repudiationists
should be successful, it will continue
to denounee them aud their infa-
nous schemes.
The WING AND CHRONICLE will
be published weekly, as before, and
will be made no from the issues of
the DAILY CHRONICLE. 1t will con-
tain choice selection of miscella-
neous matter each week, together
with editor ais, telegraph and local
matter. Especial attention will be
given its columns, and everything
that could be Objectionable in the
family circle will be carefully ex-
cluded. 1t will be the object Of the
publishers to make it welcome
visitor into the families of the
country.
It's market reports will be carefully
revised every Tuesday and made as
nearly perfect and reliable as pos
sible.
The Agricultural columns Of the
WING AND CHRONICLE shall receive
close attention, and will be im~
proved all the time. In this depart
ment, the views of practical farmers
on topics of interest will be invited.
The proprietors of these two old
and we'll established journals will
spare no pains to keep up and add
to their established reputation, and
are confident that they will make
them worth many times more than
the subscription price charged.

WALL STREET is to day at the mercy
OF Secretary Sherman. He has the
power to increase or diminish the mar
ket values of all shares, bonds and
produce. About the time of the SIT
ting Of the New York State Conven-
tion, he so manipulated the treasury
as to make everything lovely. Matters
have already changed, and things do
not look so we'll just now. II Sher-
man get the nomination at Chicago,
which seems utterly impossible, the
presidential canvass would he signal
lied by regular jubilee among stock
jobbers. But when Mr.. Sherman is
defeated, may he not conclude 10 let
the bottom go, and il settlements
should be precipitated there will be
another financial crash equal to that of
1873. Loans, which in New York
banks are $50, 900, 900 in excess of what
they were this time last year, have been
made on present fictitious values Of
stocks, and crash under such cOndi-
tions wouldibe attended.with the widest
spread bankruptcy. The establishment
Of an honest money basis, attempted
by Mr.. Bayard, would have been the
country's safeguard against panics, and
should a crash come, the legal tenders
would only assist In precipitating a
down fall, in which the country's credit
would suffer in a corresponding degree
to individual credit.

MRS. MOHL. in letter te the Dallas
Herald. SAWS:

MRS. MoHL. in a letter te the Dallas
Herald, says:
A new feature in the Texas railway
complication turned up last week in
the person of Mr.. Lott, of Corpus
Christi, who succeeded in getting a
hearing before the committee, and
turned out to be very disconcerting
and revolutionary Lott indeed. His
questions to the committee were reeu-
lar posers: "Why do you give the La
redo road $40, 900 mile when we will
build as good road without q cent
from the government All we ask is
that you do not assist a rival road :"
This seemed reasonable. He said Gen.
Sherman had pronounced his road
entirely adequate to all the govern
ment's needs. But Gen. Laredo Barnes
heard of this bad Lott, and went TO
Gen. Sherman, who said Lott WAS one
of those things, and wrote to Senator
Jones to that effect. l don't know
what has become of Lott he has mys-
ter;ously disappeared, and the COM
mittee is to have positively Its last ap-
pe.Eance on this vexed question next
Monday. But for Lott 1t would haYe
been before the House, suppose, last
week, and now 1t is possible it may
get out of the committee next week.
1t must be terribly hsrrassing life,
this waiting on Congress-; and yet it
seems to have a fascination like gamb-
ling for some men.

ther, that for six months sometimes

JUDGR L. G. ALEXANDER is the
unanimous choice of the people of his
district for Attorney General, and the
papers of Waco, Bslton, Marlin,
Rockdale and all other points in
his section speak In the highest
terms Of him. The fact about
it is that Judge Alexander, while
young man, is one of the ablest law
yers In the state, possessing, too, re
markably clear judicial mind, which
has secured him much reputation on
the bench. He was first appointed to
the bench by GoYernor Hubbard, then
he was elected over Judge Maxcy, of
Waco, and now he would be the states
attorney general, where he would most
be its most able counsellor.
