Wheat Experirnent.

The Samples of wheat distributed
by the Bureau of Agriculture last
fall were tried by the recipients, who
have forwarded the reports Of their
success to the commissioner From
the reports already received, the
following points are cleaned: John
B. McEwen, of Williamson county,
sowed one-half gallon of winter oats
in clay soil, occupying a space of
30x140 feet, plowed deep and fertil-
lied. 1t was planted Nov. Is, and
ripened June "a. The growth was
vigorous, the heads long and full,
the plants five feet high. He ex-
presses himself much pleased with
the oats as the yield was large and
they were free from rust. This be
ing an exceptional season, however,
he will make larger sowing next
year.
OF Finlay wheat, Swain Shepherd
sowed a quart Oct, 5, and it ripened
June l. The growth was luxuri-
ant, the seed yielding seven pecks
of first-class grain. He thinks the
wheat the prettiest he ever saw, and
will sow the seven pecks this fall,
and again report the result.
Three experiments with rice wheat
are reported, all successful, the aver
age yield of the quart of seed sent
being a bushel. The grain is large
and plump and the plant of tall
growth The date of ripening was
from the 18th to the 18th of June.
These trials were made in Shelby,
Cannon and Dickson counties.
-Four experiments with the Wysor
wheat are reported from Davidson,
Washington, Giles and Houston
counties. In the latter county it
was a failure though it started out
well. In Giles the result was in
different. Fair results were OBJ
tanned in the other counties, but the
general opinion is that the Wysor
wheat is too late for this climate.
None of the Gold Medal were par
ticularly encouraging. In Carroll
county it was complete failure and
never cut because destroyed with
the rust. Under most favorable
auspices, in McNairy county, the
growth was slow, and the wheat
failed to mature. Stock destroyed
it. In Meigs and Monroe the yield
was small, but, in the former county,
worms destroyed the plants soon
after coming up. The gentleman
who made this trial-Mr. Z. F.
Sharp-is satisfied that the wheat
will do well there, 1t had no rust.

constitutional Convention.


We have been asked by private let
ter and otherwise if the proposition
for a constitutional convention was a
democratic or republican move. We
answer by saying it is neither, or
at least was not in 1881, when it
was voted on in the legislature. On
March 30, 1881, when house bill No.
1888: ITO submit to the people
whether a constitutional convention
should be called to alter, reform, or
abolish the present constitution of
Tennessee" was voted on, it passed
by the following vote in the house:
democrats 10, republicans "a. The
number voting against it in the
house were: democrats, 9; republi-
cans, o. On the 9Th of April, this
bill finally passed the senate by the
following vote: democrats, 10: re-
publicans, 7. The number voting
against it were: democrats, 4; re-
publicans, /. This shows that it is
not a party move at all Although
it was supported by democrats as
well as Republicans, we can see no
practical good whatever for the peo-
pie that possibly might result from
calling a constitutional convention
1t would only benefit few, and that
few would be the men who would do
the work and get big pay for it.
The probabilities are that should a
convention be called, and the con-
stitution changed, that it would be
made worse than it is now. The
constitution is not the cause of the
people being in the condition they
are, but it is caused by the people
allowing few men, who are mem
bers of certain rings or corporations,
to do things in direct opposition to
what the constitution directed, to
create bonds and sell them in plain,
open, direct violation of the con-
stitution. The people are not pre-
pared just now for anything of that
kind; they need something else
greater than that to help them out
of the sad condition in which they
have been placed by political trick
cry and rascality. The people
should be sure and vote against
everything that is not calculated to
benefit them and help them out of
their troubles. We would be in
favor of constitutional convention
if we were prepared for it and we
could get the right kind of men
sent to the convention, but that is
the trouble just now. We should
consider this thing well before we
90 to the ballot box and cast our
vote for calling convention.

A Plea From a High source

We were permitted to copy the
following clear and able paper
written by Col. W. +. Kercheval
upon the debt question. 1t covers
the case:
FAYETTEVILLE, Tenn, June26, 81.
Hon. L. NJ j ONES PULASKI, Tenn =
In your last favor you asked me
what thought of the democratic
platform adopted at Nashville on
Goth and 2Ist of June, 1882. In re
ply, say that the platform in all
respects does not suit me entirely;
| it is seldom a man ever does get one
to suit him in all things, even
though he might draw it.
| The action of the convention of
the democrats at Nashville on Goth
inst. is only to be taken as declara-
tory of the sentiments and an ex-
preston of the views of the demo
cratic party, including both wings,
or at least by far the greater part of
both wings of the party on our state
Indebtedness.
The platform does pretend to do
more than in a general way to state
the amount of Indebtedness of the
state, giving three several amounts,
setting them out by name, as the
State debt proper" and then add
ing the amount of the bonds held by
Mrs. Polk. All of these are to be
paid in full, that is, principle and
accrued interest at the rate of 6 per
centum. The remainder of all the
states Indebtedness is to be funded
by cutting the remainder into two
equal parts, and funding only one
of those halves and the accrued inter
est by the issuing of new bonds
bearing interest at the rate of three
per centum, to the amount of the
said one half of said principal and
accrued interest, and turning the
same over in satisfaction of the
same There is not any plank in
this platform requiring that this set
Element shall be relegated or submit |
ted to the people for their approval |
at the ballot box. before the settle |
ment shall be deemed final and con
elusive upon the State of Tennessee.
As all this is merely declaratory, it
has no binding force or effect upon
the state, and indeed it was not in
tended it should have, in the mere
form of platform. 1t simply de
clares the manner in which and
when, the convention desires the en-
tire Indebtedness of the state shall
be finally settled, and the proportion
in which it shall be settled.
This is not a settlement of the
said Indebtedness of the state; some
thing more must be done before it
can he binding upon the state.
There will have to be governor
and a legislature elected to embody
the time and the terms embraced in
the platform, into n law, stating
how, when, in what proportions and
lt what interest the debt shall be /
paid The Legislature, of course, Il
when 1t comes TO frame the law, can
make such notifications and amend
nents in the law rs it may see prop
'r or fit, keeping in view the plat {
'orm and make such notifications
md amendments, if any, as will not ,
be repugnant TO and inconsistent
With the platform.
Then what remains to be done?

last words.
The drop fell and the body of the
assassin dangled at the end of the
rope. This occurred at precisely
1910.
