ABOUT WHEAT.
Whether to Hold or Sell.--An East Ten
nessee Grain Mans Views.

Col. j. w. Gaut, ii leading grain
dealer of Knoxville, and one of the
best informed men of the State has
Just returned from Richmond and oth>
er points, where he went to investi-
gate the status of the grain trade, the
output of crops, probable prices, etc.
He says the wheat crop of Virginia,
both in quantity and quality, is the
best for twenty years. A feeling of
uncertainty exists as to prices, the
lowest figures given in futures being
at Richmond, leading grain center,
which places prices at 80 cents to 81.
Col Gaut stated to a Tribund reporter
that he thought it would be wise for
farmers to sell on the early market.
He bases this suggestion upon the fact
that all the leading dealers and mill
ers agree that prices must decline la
ter, placing estimates on the proba-
bic American output and the Europe
an demand, where the crop is also
far above the average. He is conf
dent that the wheat crop of East
Tennessee has not shown SO large II
yield in twenty years. iH
The balance of trade between the
United States and Europe is against
US, and Notwithstanding our present
favorable local surroundings, Col Gaut
says the outlook is ominous, and adj
monishes the people Of this country
TO he ready for more stringent times
than now confront them.
give these views of Col. Gaut to
our readers because, after an intimate
acquaintance with him for many
years, We have every confidence in his
Judgment He is thoroughly identi-
fled with the grain trade Of East
Tennessee. his interest and those of
the farmers being one. and we know
he would tell them nothing which he
did not coRseientiously believe to be
the truth. We would be glad to see
wheat bring Sl.25 to 81, Az per bush.
eel. 1t would be better for all inter.
.ests-ours aad every other. But af-
ter the closest watching and compar
ing the views of leading grain men at
prominent centers, and also taking
into account that there is no foreign
demand for the American crop-esti-
mated at ID bushels TO the acre
throughout the country.-and that
Europe has produced an unusual yield:
counting all this for what it surely in
dictates, we see nothing to justify usin
telling the farmers to hold, or to hope
for the prices of last year. However.
it is not our purpose now to urge them
20 sell, bat simply to advise them as
to the outlook. They must reason
about it for themselves.

The nuptials of Miss Augusta
Morris, daughter of Nelson Morris,
Esq, and Mr. Apram NJ. Rothschild,
of the firm of E. Rothschild & Bros,
will be celebrated this evening at the
Grand Pacific Hotel. The affair will
be a noteworthy one, both on ac-
count of the high social standing of
the contracting parties and because
OF the elaborate preparations made
for the suspicious event. Intima te
female friends of the bride have
looked eagerly forward to the com
pletion of her trousseau. A re-
porter of the Times was permitted to
view the dainty marvels of lace and
silk. The bridal dress is made of
pure white gros de cosse, en- train,
edged with heavy cable and knife
plating, and the entire petticoat,
corsage and sleeves are of original
and exquisite design in duchesse
point lace. From the square -cut
waist, with heavy gouged back, the
train falls in long, soft folds, I'M
broken by any trimmings of drapery.
The corsage, cut square, with high
Stuart ruff, is heavily filed in with
duchesse point.

other costumes were: A reception

A Privilege OF the Press.
Washington Press.

A recent decision on the question
of press privilege by Judge Cooley,
of the Michigan Supreme Court,
Justifies the reputation for sound,
practical sense which that eminent
iurist has attained The Detroit
Post and Tribune, having commented
IN severe terms on the official con-
duct of police justice, and having
charged official malfeasance upon
him IN direct terms, was promptly
proceeded against for libel by the
offended magistrate. The defend
ants plea was that to call public att
tention to matter of misconduct
was a matter of privilege, and that
by presumption of law a papers
motives for doing so must be
deemed proper and not MAJ
licious. In his charge to the
jury the judge who tried the case
held that there was no such privilege,
and that a publication arraigning
and condemning the conduct of a
public magistrate, was subject to the
same presumption and the same law
of libel as publication in regard to
the character and acts of a private
person. The Supreme Court re,
verses this ruling, and in delivering
the decision Judge Cooley said;
''No declartion of this or any other
court can convince the common rea-
son that there is not a plain and
palpable distinction here. Few
wrongs can be greater than the pub.
lie detraction which has only abuse,
or profit from abuse, for it's object.
Few duties can be palmer than to
challenge public attention to official
disregard of the principles which
protect public and personal liberty.
The matters discussed in the publ
cation in question were of grave
public concern, and therefore it was
privileged.
That is an admirable statement of
the true character of malicious libel,
and clear, terse and comprehensive
presentation of the right and duty
of the press to take propea notice of
the official acts of public servants.
Judge Cooley gives no warrant for
calumny. He says there is "plain
and palpable distinction between
this case and publications that in
vole merely private gossip and
scandal" His decision rests on
common sense and will commend
itself to the approval of the intelli-
gent throughout the country.
Few acts are baser than malicious
assault on personal character. The
press or the tongue that wilfully
mahgns character by reason of
malice or with the hope of gain,
commits an outrage that would not
be too severely punished if it were
treated as a felony But in plain,
candid criticism, or manly denuncia~
ton of official misconduct, the press
is simply discharging a high and
imperative duty, and the bench is
that part of our system of govern
ment in which wrongsdoing is de-
servedly condemned with the great
est severity.
