TennysOn and GEORGE Eliot.

What Mr.. Tennyson's poetry was
to the second quarter Of our cen
fury, George Eliot's novels have
been to the third. The aim of both
writer's has been the same, though
their methods have been so very
different. They have both chosen
as their constant theme human ma
ture as related to modern thought;
and they have tried to reconcile
what was highest In the one to
what was most deeply true in the
other. But the intellectual condi-
ton of the world, as the novelist
saw 1t, was not the condition that
inspired and nerved the poet. The
novelist was living into her true pc
Rod, just as the poet was living out
of his; and the very influences that
have cast gloom upon The latter
have been those that have given her
solemn chiaroos euro to the former.
Mr.. Tennyson has ever tried to dis
Germ God through the material uni
verse. 1t Is George Eliot's endeav-
or to show Us we can do without
him. Both treat the affections as
the chief treasures of life; but Mr..
Tennyson makes these the germ of
faith, George Eliot makes them the
end of it Edinburgh Review.

The papers that have been loud
est in denouncing the debt settle
ment and matchmaking state cred
it men and measures have been ia
ken down with a sudden solicitude
for the honor of the state. Looking
back upon the havoc they have
wrought, they tremble, affrighted,
and are assuming righteous airs
that lily become those who are re-
sponsible for the great calamity.
Tennessee loses twice the amount of
her debt in the great damage done
her credit and the repulse given to
immigration and capital, and has
erected an insurmountable levee
against the tide of prosperity and
industrial progress that is flowing
southwark. We cannot realize that
the whole country is flooded with
prosperity such as was never before
experienced in this land of wonder
full progress, because we get none
OF it and see none of it. We have
repulsed it and driven it away from
our borders. Now, the papers and
men who by their loud cries and |
accusations have brought this state
of affairs about have walked up to
the immensely of the damage they
have done. They cannot be sincere
for they have not been. Harmony
may be possible, but if this class
are to bring it about it will be dear
" bought.

Ex-GUv. Browns Opinion.

Ex-Gov. Brown, OF Tennessee, who
is in New York. says it is too soon
to determine what will be the result,
politically, of the decision of the
supreme court of that state declar
ing the 1908 debt bill unconsLitu
tional, but fears that it means that
Tennessee is to become a republi
can state, for the reason that the
democratic party is divided on the
debt question, and the state credit
party will probably vote with the
republicans in order to defeat the re-
pudiators. Mr.. Brown says the late
Andrew johnson is the father OF
population in Tennessee, and that

Honesty the Exception.
GCincinnati Enquirer


On the occasion of the pres nta
ton Of a testimonial of thanks u
the trustees of the Southern Rail
road in council chamb Der Yesterday
great stress was laid by the speakers
upon tie fact that these fiduciary
officers had not stolen the prop.
erty entrusted to their care. The
mayor of tie city even went so far
as to thank them for being honest.
Verify, these times are quaint IN
deed Is virtue no longer its own
reward? Is honesty no longer the
rule but the exception, so that when
honest men are found they are
singled out and patted on the back ?
Are men who have a railroad in
trust and do not steal it to be here
after the recipients of votes of
thanks? If so, then Diogenes had
better get out bis lantern and re-
sumo his search.

years Browns Bronchial Troches have
been recommended by physicians, and
have always given perfect satisfaction.

The charter has been secured by
citizens of Williamson county for
'The Memphis and Bristol Air
Line r. r. Co." to traverse the
whole length of the state. It seems
to Us such a scheme is visionary.
A railroad from Memphis to Bris-
toll could not go within eighteen
miles Of Nashville and still miss it.
There is not the necessity that
would build such line of road. 1t
will be built but it will strike mid
way between Nashville ana Deca
tur and at point where the iron
and coal on the Tennessee and in
the Cumberland mountains can be
brought closest together. Pulaski
is undoubtedly that point, as a sur
vey Of the country conclusively
shows. Tie Memphis and Knox
vile will be built some day be-
cause it is a necessity.

Fifty and Six,

The CITIZEN has it upon good
authority that negotiations are
Dending at Nashville that will
bring a proposition from the Ten
nessee bond holders to scale the
debt and refund it upon a basis of
SOC, and that Gov. Hawkins will
issue a call for an extraordinary
session Of the legislature within
two weeks to consider the PROPOSE
ton. There is no doubt that it is
being seriously considered and it is
reported that the bondholders have
given indication Of their intention
to submit the plan of adjustment
upon that basis. 1t is further said
that John H. Savage has given his
consent to settleu ent at fifty cents
with interest at A. 5 and 6 per cent,
principal and interest to be paid
in twelve years. We do not believe
the latter. The first comes in a
way that is almost authoritative.
The coupon feature, of course, is to
be left out. We cannot believe,
however, that it is to be an ultima
tum. We doubt the propriety of
figure being fixed until the people
indicate their preference. No mat
ter what we owe nor what equities
are upon this side or that, no set
Element can be carried out that has
not the support of the people. We
believe 50-4 comes nearer to a Just
eftlomont Of tho dabt ba,.;n - -
view the will of the people, than any
that has had any authority. 1t is
sometimes hazardoqs to CLAIM too |
much, even when one is entitled to |
it. This is to be a compromise
and not settlement, strictly speak
ing. 1t is better to meet all de
mands before the event than to
awaken opposition that will defeat
The attempt.

The Futura System.

Duudio EApTeoSs
he whole system of conducting
the purchase and sale of the earth S
productions both in New York and
Chicago, is a transparent fraud and
nothing else. The absurdity of
making the cash prics of ? bushel
of wheat in Chicago to-day depend
ent on the supposed range of fu-
ture prices as established by Top
tions" three to ten months in the
future is only equalled by the SINH
lar absurdity of arriving at the
cash price of cotton in New York.
Were it not for this system of ''op-
tions" our productions would sell
for what they are legItimately
worth, and the moral health and
general well-being of almost the
entire population of this country
would be infinitely bettered. But
speculation has come to be a ma
tional habit.

1t is an insult to Judges Turney,
Mcfarland and Freeman to compli-
ment them upon their decision of
1908. If they decided according
to law, they simply did their sworn
duty. To compliment them person
ally implies that they manipulated
the law to suit the case and ignored
all other issues and ideas, subordi
mating everything to a mighty effort
to please the people, right or wrong.
Do not understand that we attribute
such motives to the judges. In our
opinion an open accusation is less
insulting than plaster of taffy that
necessarily implies impure motives.
If they did it because they were
afraid Of popular opinion, they de
serve execration. If they did their
duty under the law, it is mean to |
faint them with insinuations under |
guise of compliments.

the naming of prices; they drive
