LIFE sENATORsHIPS.

The times seem to be singularly
fruitful of all sorts of political
schemes. The latest is PROPOSE
ton to amend the constitution so as
to make all ex-presidents members
Of the senate for life. This seems
to us to be open to objections of
the grayest character and the adops
ton of such an amendment is
wholly improbable. There is no
reason for changing provision Of
the constitution which has been
successfully observed in the past
with the best of results. Amend
ments to the palladium of our lib
critics" should be very thoughtfully
approached and greatest delibera-
ton should be given them.
AS is known by all, the provision
in regard to senators was great
element of disturbance in the forms

A BREAK UP.

There are strong indications in
the air that a radical change Of
policy will be made in the south.
This, if done, will effeetually dis
pose of the democratic party as
such. The CHRONICLE has repro
duced, from time to time, a few
items from the southern newspapers
showing what a marked change
there was in the southern way of
viewing the situation. These para
graphs have been only a few from a
large number coming from editors
all over the south.
When the southern people, as a
people we mean and not as individ,
uals, learn that material advance
ment is better than politics and
bourbonism is the curse of their coun-
try, that progress can not be made
in the teeth of enslavement of the
mind, when they learn that south
ern men have an unconquera-
bic right to be republicans, or dem
ocrats, as their individual prefer
ences may indicate, then, and not
till then, will they become great
and prosperous,
The southern states have no bust
ness in national politics as a pros
fes8ion and the sooner they find this
out the better. As long as there
are thousands of acres of waste and
uncultiVated land in the south, as
long as o liberal education is a rari,
ty among the masses, as long as we
are sending millions of dollars to
the north which should be kept al
home, outside matters should have
little interest for us. #t
We are glad to see evidences Of
this awakening to the real nature o.
our situation. With it we can SEE
glorious future for our section
The administration of Mr.. HayeI
had much to do with it. Observe
what the Vicksburg Herald says il

ative stage of our government,
and the adoption Of Il in its present
form was in the shape of CONS
promise. The smaller states were
not willing to come into the union
unless some degree of equality of
representation were assured them.
The same objections that led to this
section Of the constitution are for
chile now no less than then. Should
the proposition be adopted, the
states in which the ex-presidents
live would have more representation
than the others of the sisterhood. For
instance, Illinois would have three
and in four years the chances are
that Ohio would have four. q
Another great objection is, that
this would create privileged class
in our system, which is utterly re-
pugnant to American ideas and
traditions. The creation OF such a
class would be an entering wedge
which in time might work great
mischief to our economy. 1t is
one of the greatest beauties of oul
institutions that every man is free
| and equal, and this feature will and
should always remain inviolable.
This amendment, though, viii

the states could not be induced t.

THANKSGIVING.

This is the day set apart by the
president and governor to be spent
in thanksgiving for the many mer-
cies to us as nation shown by the
God of nations. It is good old
custom originated by the fathers of
the republic and has been kept
from the beginning of the govern
ment. 1t should neither be allowed
to fall into disuse nor be unsuitably
observed.
We have many causes to be thank
full. God has smiled upon our
country as he never has before and
to-day our prosperity is more ad-
vanced and assured than it ever
has been in the past. To bountiful
crops and absence Of any great
epidemic or other cause of grief, He
has so ordered that to>day our
credit both as state and nation
stands from under q cloud in the
bright light of the sun of material
interests and prosperity, as a nation
and individuals. We are at peace
with the whole world and there is
nothing to disturb it.
We have just passed through the
flthiest campaign ever witnessed.
and the fact that it is finished il
sufficient cause for thanksgiving
We have elected a president, and
the election is conceded by all. Nc
elements of fear as to the result il
noticeable, and no change N the
policy which has made US so pros
porous is possible.
In our own state we have lifted
our credit from that low place i
has occupied for SO long and VI
stand to>day before the world as al
honest people willing to pay al
honest debt. The late election ha
forever ruined reputation and ou
state is once more the desirable
home of men of all classes. Alread,
the stream of immigration has Sc
in towards US and our waste place
will soon be filled with hardy
wealth>producing population.
The movements in the railroa'
world continue promising. and tn
beginning and completion of thos
enterprises that will so incalculabl.
bless our section is now assured
We can see from our outposts tn
Land of Promise and we view
with feelings of devoutest gratitude
Our East Tennessee, the finest Ian
the sun shines above, has now
future before it unequalled in il
possibilities of good by any countr
in the world. Let us all be thank
full.
