EXPLANATORY

We learn that language used by
the editor of this paper, in mo-
ment of personal and political ex-
element, has been perverted and
recounted to certain OF our friends,
as being an animadversion upon
their personal and political honor.
This we disclaim. No such Ian
.guage was ever used, and if it had
been, it certainly was not intended
to apply TO any gentleman in per
sonal sense. We hope those who
have heard such reports will come
to us personally and have the fair
mindedness to hear our side. We
ask this in simple justice to our
paper and to the editor.

which is based the matrimonial ex-
perience, which is the main subject
of the novel. A novel of former
years or French novel of the pres
ent day would have made seduction.
the result. The author who writes.
from New England experiences
makes it issue in a marriage but
little less disastrous.
And in notions and practices so
loose and needless as regards the
preliminaries Of marriage the author
finds abundant cause for sceptical
and dissolute views relating to mar
riage itself, and, as grounded on
these for pernicious legislation on
the subjects of matrimony and di-
Vorce. The book is not ostensibly a
religious one, but the Christian
reader will find many sermons in it.

6 A medicine must of necessity
stand upon its merits. If it does
not possess healing qualities of val
ue to suffering humanity, no amount
of advertising will prevent its be-
ing branded a fraud by the public.
Among the proprietary medicines
advertised in the papers there are
none that hold higher rank than
those of The DIR. Harter Medicine
Company, st. Louis. DIR. Harter's
Iron Tonic is winning special favor
each bottle used proving its wonder
full benificent effects, an advertise
ment which sells many additional
bottles. The testimonials which
the DIR. Harter Company are able
to produce in proof of the merits of
their medicine will convert the
most suspicious to its use. Read
their advertisement, and if suffering
from any of the diseases mentioned,
write to them, or ask your druggist
for their medicines.

A GrFSCWb.

\ very pretty story comes from
New York about four homeless
working girls who determined to
abandon the horrid boarding house
pool their earnings, and make them
selves as real home as can be
found beyond parents roof. They
rented a third-story fiat and began
operations. They were poor, and
were obliged to start with only one
room carpeted, a stove, some chairs,
a clock, table, a few cups and
dishes, knives and forks, and two
mattresses, but no bedsteads. Lit
tie by little the furniture was in
creased now by Il chair, next by a
bedstead, again by bureau, and so
on from being complete extras were
added. One of the girls got $40 a
week as milliner ; another got $l2
as a clerk in a Broadway candy
store another got $40 or $12 some
where else, and the fourth was
dressmaker, and, because she work
ed at home, was made hOuskeeper
and called steward of the club. Un-
til the house was furnished all pool
ed their earnings, but since then
each has paid every Saturday a
share (graded in accordance with
their incOme) of the weeks eXpen-
ses, including a stated sum as salary
to the stewardess. The girls dress
tastefully and live better than their
neighbOrs. They live along with
out quarreling, and run their pictur-
esque establishment according to
ruIaS framed and hunO in fha no rI0r
One of these rules is that no MEN,
Der OF the club shall receive the visit
of a gentleman except in the presence
of at least one other member, and
that all the members who are in
the house shall be present in such
cases.

THE SITUATION.

The election is over, and we are
defeated. The Bate Democracy
has overwhelmed all it's adverse
ries. Hawkins, Russell, Beasley
and all their followers have gone
down before the mighty tempest
that swept the State on Tuesday
last. The Governor, the Legislat-
ure, and eight of the ten Congress
men, possibly nine of the ten, have
been elected by the men who rallied
under the banner of the 10th June.
A more complete victory eould not
have been expected, indeed could
not be desired. They have every
thing their OWE, way. The success
sOr to Gov. Harris in the Senate
will be of their choosing the laws
i'll regard to taxation, and the com
pletiOn of the 60-3-4-5-6 settlement
are at their mercy. They can now
bring forward the plan OF settling
the State debt at 500 they may or
may not fall out among themselves;
they may or may not agree upon
plan that will be accepted by our
creditors; they may or may not
adopt such policies and present
such measures as will advance the
prosperity of the State, and strength
en- Democracy here in Tennessee
and throughout the whole country.
We are not convinced that they
have been right in undertaking to
overthrow the settlement already
made. We are not hopeful that
they will govern the State wisely,
yet we wish them every success, and
in this expression believe we ex-
press the earnest aspirations of
every true Tennessean. We can
afford To be proven in the wrong if
the good of the State shall be adj
vanced; we can bear defeat If the
cause of true Democracy is thereby
promoted. We have no excuses or
apologies to make for our course.
We believed that the honorable set
Element of Tennessee's debt was
above considerations of party, above
considerations of temporary success.
Our banner has gone down in de-
feat, but its failing folds cover as
gallant and noble band of Demo
Gratis as ever made battle for truth
and right. What lies in the future
we know not, the responsibility
lies with the Victors. We shall
wait and see what they shall do
with the victory, trusting that the
honor of the State will not suffer,
and that they may bring to an hon
Orable solution the vexed question
which has alone divided us from
the majority of our brethren in the
party.

THE first section of the Bate plat

THE first section of the Bate plat
form says:
That the Democrats of Tennessee,
with their majority of the popular
vote, are the rightful guardians of
the honor and good name, of the
State, and they willingly accept
the duty and responsibility of pre-
serving them from faint or suspic.
ion, and that it is equally their
right and duty to settle its indebt-
edneSs. ..
AS the Readjusters will have full
control of the Legislature, by sew
enty odd majority, it now stands
them in hand to make good their
promises and claims and we shall
see in what manner they will "pre-
serve the credit and good name of
the State" Tennessee has lost
twice the amount of the entire debt
by the higgling process. Walk up
to the Captains Office and settle,
gentlemen.

gressmen in the Second, Third,
Fourth, Fifth and Twelfth districts;
the Republicans in the Sixth, Sew

of 5000 to 5000; also a clear major

WHAT or THE SETTLEMENT.

1t is over. We are defeated by
numbers, not in principle. We are
not able at this writing to determine
the full complexion of the Legislat-
ure, but be il as it may, we believe
and hope that the settlement made
by our last Legislature will be the
final settlement of this hurtful ques-
ton. We believe the settlement is
the best that can ever be obtained,
and as such, we hope the Legislat-
ure elected will determine to stand
by it. Why disturb it? For what
good? ask yourselves this question
and decide it within yourselves.
Can this settlement be repealed and
any other settlement made that
will conform so nearly to right and
Justice? We think not. If you
should pass the 50-3 bill, common
sense and common reason tells You
that the creditors will not accept it,
then would not the conservative
sentiment of intelligent and think.
ing men say, not attempt to ioister
upon those we owe and whose debt
is not disputed; proposition which
they have never agreed to accept
and one which they never
will accept. Tennesseans are sick
and tired of this disastrous question.
They are done with it. They are
determined to let it rest. They see,
now that the heat and passion OF
party strife has cleared up, all the
more clearly and porcibly that it
ought to be maintained all want it
sustained. Thousands who voted
for Bate and against the settlement
are now strongly in favor of main
tanning it. The pressure from al!
parties to sustain it will be over
whelming and must be obeyed. 1t
must be ended and Democracy
he relieved of the imputation which
has been urged against her of the
tendency toward reputation. Pa
triOts and partisans alike will ask
for and demand its acceptance.
Public sentiment and the weighty
voice of the people will demand it.
Hundreds and thousands of those
who lost sight of the principle for
the man, now look at the matter
and cody and want it MAIN
tanned. Democracy has nothing to |
regret, nothing to upbraid Itself for.
1t has fought good fight, it has
kept the faith. 1t has battled for
sound Democracy and true princi- !
piles. Ii has looked at something |
beyond, something higher than the |
mere temporary success of the mere |
fragment of the party in this State. |
II has taken its stand on a higher
and broader field of battle and wag- |
ed a noble war for the future of De
mocracy. We have nothing to be
of in this brave fight. We
have "dOne all that man can do, /
md he who dares 20 do more is
nome"
We now have the calm after the
storm. All is quiet. Calm reason
md sober judgement now asserts
Itself and scans the doubtful hori-
ION of the future, in an earnest eff
IOrt to find some solution of the ter
rible problem which has made us
enemieS-political fratricides, and
in this earnest longing for some
hing to make finality of the ques-
ion, they find only one satisfactory
answer, one solution, and that is
L 1t tie settlement stand.
