men ought not to he tempted. 80 long
as horses are allowed in the streets to

men, old men, who never before 80 much

shall he done there will be, according to
Gov. st. Johns theory, NO more horse

Under the head Of exclusive and
re-lie-able information the New York
Tribune Of the 18th contains the follow
ing:
Collector Robertson, Of New York,
has been removed, and Stephen Il.
French, of nag Harbor, New York, A.
bany and Washington, has been Ap-
pointed in his place. Collector Robin
con was removed by the crowd of loun-
gers at the Arlington Hotel. Mr..
French was nominated by the crowd at
the Riggs Hotel, and he was unani-
mo,,sly confirmed by the largest crowd
Of all ut Willard's. Collector Robertson
Is removed every time he comes to
Washington, and judging from the con-
ditiOn Of his health AMI spirits, is bear
ing it remarkably we'll. He has also
been removed few times by some Of
the newspapers, and does not saem to
mind even that. There 10 the very best
authority for stating that Mr.. French
will not assume the duties Of the Col

Speaking Of the Anti-Polygany bill
the Buffalo Courier makes the following
point:
There is not .lemagogue in the coun.
try who DIES not feel perfectly safe in
denouncing the NIorn,Ons and condemn
ing the twin relic of barharism." No
state rights are involved in the ques-
ton, and it il admitted that Congress
has full legislative power over the Ter
ritcries. Moreover, no one denies that
the evils Of polygamy should be
thoroughly and promptly dealt with.
But to take this view Is one thing and to
approve all the provisions OF the Ed
nlunds bill is another. The efficacy Of
the new law is questioned by ito own
author and by many intelligent men,
bers of the same party who are earnestly
opposed to the Mormon regime in Utah.

are needed no doubt, bat whether the

They Spared His Improbable Life

THE truth of the following from the
Laramie boomerang will be vouched
for by X. Bsidler, who as every one in
Montana knows cannot tell lie i:
Many years ago, when Denver didn't
have any Opera-hOuse, and the Rocky
Mountain country was the terra incog,,i-
tn Of the world, there wandered out to
the regi0c Of Fort Benton man named
Exbeadle, who made himself unpopular
among the ShOsb0nes Dy killing some of
their most prominent men whenever he
could catch them away frLm home.
A. result of this cOurse of procedure
Mr.. Exbeadle had large private ceme-
terry and h0stilities were declared by the
trib.,.
Mr.. Exbeadle was a speculator, and
of fireworks that didn't meet with q
ready sale, aud he purchased them,
more for his own amusement than any
thing else. These he put to one side,
and didn't think Of them again till one
day there was q council of war in the
6h0shone tribe, at which it was resolved
to extinguish the light of Mr.. Exbeadle
and send HIM across the mysterious
river.
They notified him that the intention
WINS to make him climb the golden stair
in about IL minutes, Western time. 1t
looked pretty dubious for the defendant
for y moment, and. he didn't know ex-
actly what to do, not having time to
consult counsel.
1t was u dark night in autumn and
Mr. Exbeadle ielt that the morrow
would be of very little interest to him.
Like an inspiration, however, came
the recollection OF his fireworks. He
rOse and said:
'Gontlemen of the forest, you appar'
emily have the bulge on me and adj
nit that you are largely in the majority,
but YOU do not know me. am .
medicine man from Michigan, and I
can make 1t mighty interesting for you
If you carry this thing too far. just
say this for your own good, and more
in sOrrOW than in anger. II you take

turc. will linger near you in the spirit,
and / will annoy yQn pretty plenty. l

your leading men in the cold, cold

I will perform when get out Of the
flesh where won't be delayed by the
inelemency Of the weather. I will now
proceed to show youa few little anna
teur efforts Of mine as medicine man
from away buck"
Mr.. Exheadle then let OH y new style
of sea serpent from . slight elevation.
1t was the biggest thing in the line Of
pyrotechnics that was ever turned loose
west of the Missouri. 1t shot out into
the dark ness about nine feet like . car
load Of delirium trelnens and stiutrmed
through the inky bosom of night like al
uneasy demon walking in HIS sleep.
The gathered warriors Of the tribe took
one Mortified Look ut the kissing ennis
sary Of hell and lit out. They left all
their baggage that didn't happen to he
tied to them. and there hasn't l'een u
Shoshone Indian seen there since.
Mr.. Exbcadle picked out the hest lo-
nies belonging to the tribe, loaae1 W
the rest Of his fireworks and went home.
He lived many years after and became
one Of the most trusted Indian peace
commissioners known in Western his
tory.

ton Of the name, 1t would puzzle the
most ingenious of our Republican CO.

The term ''Bourbon," ii it means any
thing nowadays rs applied to fndivid-
uals in this country, means one who en-
tertains obsolete ideas, or in other words,
one who ''learns nothing and forgets
nothing" They are confined to no par

the pine forests Of Maine rs well
~ in the n,ountains of Tennessee.
In the one place they are still voting for
Gov. Kent and in the other they are
nurrahing for Andrew Jackson. These
men have learned nothing and forgotten
nothing. The p,rties to which they
once belonged have moved away from
them and left them living monuments Of
an almost forgotten past. In the North
they have never caught up with their
party and are now found in the army Of
''scrntchers." They vote, If they vote 1t
all, to crafty their passion or prejudice
and not to perpetuate principle. In the
South they have drifted off into the

The STATE DEBT.

EDITOR Our State
debt is at present the only question
which distracts Il hitherto united
Democracy in the great State OF
Tennessee. While politicians are
discussing and demagogues are agi-
tating the question, it is almost i'm
possible for the honest yOemanry of
the country to give it that fair and
impartial consideration which its
status and importance demand. |
am one among many thousands in
Tennessee who believe that this
debt would have been settled long
ago, with entire satisfaction to the
bOndhOlders, if distractionists for
political preferment had only
ceased to agitate. There is certain
ly honesty in the great body pol
itic to do right if let alone, but the
great misfortune with many of us
is, we do not know what is right,
having so many counscllOrs and ad-
ViSerS.
Discuss as we may, and agitate to
our hearts content, there are but
three questions to be considered /:
First, is it an honest debt? Second
is it honest to repudiate, or even
scale an honest debt? Third, are
able to pay it?
In discussing the first proposition
we will state that it is argued by Il
great many, that during Brown
lows Dynasty goodly number of
bonds were issued not having the
sanction of the taxpayers of Ten
nessee, in as much as they were at
that time DISTINGUISHED and had no
representation. 1t matters but lit
tie whether they were issued fraud
ulently or wrOngfully, the main
question comes up, did the State of
Tennessee reap the benefit of the
proceeds? If so, then and in that
case these bonds should be prompt
ly paid, and will be paid if the tax
payers are as honest us | believe
they are. If the State of Tennessee
did not reap the benefit of said
bonds and they were issued without
authority, then and in that case
they should not be paid, and the
bondholder took the s:tme under
the old maxim, "c0cedt e,nptOr."
As to the second and third propo-
sitiOns, we do not propose To discuss
in the present paper further than to
say that 1t is certainly dishonest to
repudiate any honest debt, whether
contracted by the State under legal
authority or by private individuals
under their own free will and ac-
cord. As to a debt being scaled
honestly, this depends upon free
and voluntary agreement between
the debtor and creditor. If the
debtor is unable to pay and the
creditor, approaching the position
and circumstances, chooses to take
less, then there is no injury to any
one and fair, honest transaction
is effected, but it is wrong, decided
ly wrong for the debtor to say will
give you so much and no more,
here again honor steps i'm and die
tates the terms of settlement, viz:
for the debtor to pay what he Is
able to pay, and let a credit pro

HEAR ALL SIDES.
JOHN.

The present canvass in this State
bids fair to be very warm and hot
ly contested. Here at the outset
men are too quick to jump at de-
cision to form an opinion and to
make an assertion OF how they are
going to vete, before they have
carefully weighed and calmly con-
sidercd the questions upon which
they will be required to exercise
the right of ballot. Let Us be calm,
cool and conservative. Do not say
you will do this, that or the other,
until you have heard all sides of the
subject. Consider it as you would
a plain business matter OF your
own. take it with you to your
homes, away from the passion and
prejudice of heated debate, away
from the wild clamor of the crowd
and the baseless assertions. of the
unprincipled demagOgue and de-
eide, with all the parts before you,
for yourself, which is the right and
wrong of it. The State Credit De-
mOcracy have entered this contest
believing they are battling for the
right, for the honor, credit and ma
terial welfare of the State. They
do not appeal to the intlamed pas
sions of men, to short lived policy
and weak expediency, but to the
intelligent understanding of men,
to that sense of common honesty
and justice which always triumphs
sooner or later over dishonesty and
ignorance.
To men who are seeking after
what's right, to those who will not
be slaves to a naddening popular
clamor and do not think might
makes right. we would say, do not
be too hasty in making up your
mind, in this quadrilateral contest
as to which side you will support.
Hear them all. Be just, calm,
quiet, conservative, do not let your
prejudice get the better of your
judgement, and to all such as these
the State Credit Democracy will
present its cause, confident that
Democracy may be sustained in
Tennessee "upon the broad founda-
ton of justice and fair dealing, in
stead of upon the uncertain sands OF
a time serving expedicncy."

Mr.. HOrsley retire from the editor
iaI charge of the Herald, a position
he has filled long and with much
ability, but it is exceedingly graft
flying to see the Herald continue
its support of the true principles OF

aid under its new management
bravcly says:
We cannot lend our aid TO error

simply for the temporary success OF
the party organization which has
abandoned its principle.
We find very strong element in
our own county favOring this course
and it is daily and rapidly increas-

tiUn is thoroughly discussed and
fully understood it will command
the approval of great majority OF
the people OF the State.
