Tennessee i'm New York
New York Herald, March 2i.

The failure of the Governor of
Tennessee to call the expected spe-
cial meeting of the Legislature to
act upon the late proposition of the
bondholders is explained. \ letter
from Gov. Hawkins, dated March
II, has been received, in which he
says:
Hon. Samuel Watson, of this city,
has Just handed me what as he in
forms me is IA copy Of your letter to
me on the 9th inst. / have no rec
objection of ever having seen the
original and am satisfied | never
received it. / have received moth
ing from the holders of Tennessee
bonds since the last regular session
of our Legislature which l could
regard as proposition for settle
ment from them, and, therefore, |
have not felt authorized 10 convene
the Legislature in extra session to
consider the subject.
The letter referred TO as dated,
March 8, was forwarded by Mr.. E.
L. Andrews, of this city, and con-
tanned the following passage:
In pursuance of arrangements
made with this bondh0lding con-
stituency the committee instituted
suits for the enforcement of para
mount liens on railroads in the
State, and those suits are now pend
ing on appeal on the docket of the
United States Supreme court. On
account of the character of the
questions and interests involved in
these litigations it is important that
no unnecessary delay should inter
vene before their final hearing.
As the Supreme court concludes its
regular term about the 10Th of May
it is incumbent that prompt action
be taken for the argument of these
causes. The United States govern
mcnt, a. trustee for certain Indian
tribes, is the holder of large
amount of Tennessee six per cent.
bonds and the committee would
hope to have the cooperation of its
Attorney General of Tennessee, In
obtaining an early judicial decision
upon these railroad liens.

TnE nnIHERY uNvEsrIGATION.

The report of the State Senate
Bribery Investigating Committee,
which it is supposed will be made
known at the extra-session of the
Legislature next week, will be
looked forward TO by the people OF
the State with great interest. They
are anxious to know what will
be the result of this famous inves-
tigation, which has cost the State
no inconsiderable sum of money.
If any member of the Senate was
bribed TO '5ote for the defunct 1908
bill, the people are no less DESTROYS
now, than they were before that
act was declared unconstitutional,
to know who they were, and will
demand that they be expelled from
that honorable body and consigned
TO the ignominy and disgrace which
such an Infamous act ought tC
bring upon them; but if, on the
contrary, these grave charges are
proven to be false and unfounded.
the gentlemen against whom they
were brought ought to be thorough
ly eXhonorated and those who
brought the charges made to suffer
the consequences of such base and
wantOn Islander. Let us have the
full findings of the Investigating
Committee, be 1t what it may.

Capt. w. 0. Dodd, President OF

prove interesting to all participants
in this most remarkable artillery

The Hack Question.

EDITOR CHRONICLE: In recent
issues OF your esteemed local con-
temporary : the Tobacco Leaf -
there appear brief articles relative
TO the amount charged by hackmen
for conveying persons to and from
the new depot.
The sum eXacted for said convey
ance is "eXtortiOnate" in the eyes
of the Leaf man, who recommends
that the evil be abated by munich
pal action; and also refers TO a
right which he says the Board of
Mayor and Aldermen have to "fix
and enforce and regulate the rates
to be charged for the carriage of
persons and property within the
city" Now has it never occurred
to the editor of the Leaf that the
handsome little structure known as
the passenger depot is not wHhin
the corporate limits, but reD10Ued
from its boundaries ? if not he
should make a note of the fact.
If hackmen grow rich r0pidiy
from this "eXtortion' the fact will
soon become known and the Leaf
has right to compete and get her
share of the "pie." The writer of
this-unlike the most prominent
CHECKERS" in this materials no
mercenary thirst to quench, but
merely writes the above in the
cause of justice.

Fish Culture.

The growing of game fish in Ten
nessee is rapidly becoming an I'M
portant industry, under the impetus
given it by Commissioner Col. Geo.
L. Akers. He has introduced into
the public streams and private fish
ponds all the best and most prOduc-
tive foreign varieties known. A
letter to the Courier-Journals says:
The credit due for this satisfactory
condition of the States fishing inter-
ests belongs to Col. Geo. f. Akers,
the untiring Fish Commissioner.
The Legislature having refused to
make an appropriation for the pur-
pose, Col. Akers, fortunately being
a wealthy man, has given much OF
his time and money in building up
this important commercial indus
try.
He has induced farmers and 9TH
ers all over the State to establish
carp ponds, and where they were
unable to do so he has generously
and unostentatiously aided them.
Through him many of the noun
tain streams and springs have been
stocked with all the game varieties
of fish. In this respect he has been
q greater friend to the State than the
State has been to itself. He has in
spired a love in the people for the
cultivation of fish, and has done
more to prevent the wholesale de-
struction of fish by the seine than
all other men combined.

AN Independence, Mo-, special
says that it looks as if the career of
the James brothers was drawing to a
close. Their comrades are fast being
brought to justice. Excitement is
intense there because the notorious
Dick Little surrendered at Kansas
City and was allowed to make a full
confession of all the crimes of the
gang for the past seven years, in
Guiding the tram robbery. Little
surrendered through the influence
of his wife, and for Il few weeks past
has been assisting in arranging for
the capture of the remainder of the
gang. His confession is said to con-
tain startling facts.

THE POLITICAL WORLD.

1t may be little dull just now
in the general political world, and
indeed it is, but during the coming
Summer and Fall things bid fair to
be quite lively in many of the
States.
Then the crossroads politician,
the lovers of the "dear people" and
ne who has been induced to sacri-
flee his own best interests and per-
sonal convenience for the public
good, will loom up in all his pomp
and grandeur and go about telling,
in his persuasive way. how it was
that he "did not want to run, how
he was forced to sacrifice himself
upon the altar of patriotism, &c !"
but reminding the "dear people"
all the while that the country is fast
going To the demnitiOn bOw-wOws,
and that unless such men as he and
his party, are either placed or re-
tanned in power, something awful
Is going to happen. Mind you, he
"dOes not want the offices, he is on
~ trying TO save his country from
the impending calamity, &c. &c"
Thus he goes about and button
holes you or harangues you from
the hastings, until he finally makes
YOU believe that,
lie himself, is he,
on whose strong arm hangs destiny.
Thus taking a prospective view
through the political tense, we find
that the following States will hold
elections during the year and may
be counted upon to furnish plenty
of fun for the boys.
Twenty-three States hold elec-
tiOns during the year-Rhode Is
land, Oregon, Kentucky, Tennes-
see and Alabama lead off during
the Spring and Summer and heat
the political cOuldron to a boiling
temperature. Maine will replenish
the simmering pot in September.
Ohio, Iowa, Colorado and West
Virginia will hold elections in De-
tOber and drive away the eR1lJi of
the melancholy days; while in No
vember, Connecticut, Delaware,
Illinois, Kansas, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Nebraska, Nevada, New
Hampshire, New York, Pennsylva-
mia, South Carolina and Texas hold
their elections.
A student of politics could doubt
less easily foretell the result in most
of these States, but in some of them,
circumstances yet To come may
change his prOphesies. Lets wait
and see what we VII see.

CAPT. LEWIS BUCKNER has been
nominated by the President for In

Fifth District of Kentucky-the

This appointment is regarded as a
decided victory for the Kentucky
Stalwarts. Capt Buckner's father,
Col. James F. Buckner, is warm
friend of Grants and was bounced
from the position by Hayes, who
placed Wilson, the proprietor of the
Commercial, in the Office.
These recent federal appointments
in Kentucky are considered as a
direct slap in the face TO the Jacobs
