There is fair prospect that some action
VIII be taken by the present Congress by
which the Mormon evil may be effectively
reached. At least this is the opinion of Repre-
sentative Willis, of Michigan, who takes a
deep interest in the subject. Benjamin F. Hall,
the first Chief Justice of Colorado, gives an in
terestlng account of the establishment Of
the Territorial Government in Utah in
Io3o, and of the regret that Mr..
Fillmore subsequently expressed that he had
placed Brigham Young at its head The Rev.
Dr. }. L. Newman preached a sermon in this
city last night on the peril to the country
from the toleration of Mormonism. Some fea-
lures of the evil were set forth by the Rev.
Mr.. Gallagher, who has done missionary work
in Utah.

RAILROAD REGULATION.

The spirit in which the discussion
of the railroad question in this State
has been carried on by the read
juster press, is the same as that
which characterizes the French
agrarians and anarchists and the
free trade cranks of this country
They begin and end by appealing
to popular prejudice against what
and whom they f1ippantly call
monopoly" aud "monopolists.'
Railroad corporations and their
managers are denounced as the en-
emies of liberty, as oppressors and
robbers OF the public. They are
threatened with domination by a
commission selected with special
reference to the ignorance and rad
icalism of its members, and so on
for quality and quantity.
Now, while we regard this sort OF
journalism disgraceful, and in q
measure damaging to the people,
who, by their patronage make its
existence possible, we do not think
it can do permaE ent harm to any
one. Abusing railroads by coun-
try and people whose Importance
in every particular has been quad.
rupled by those roads, is not the
part of wisdom. If we have been
as states or as a nation, in oul
eagerness to secure roads, too lib
eral in making donations, or too Lax
in protecting our rights by whole
some restr aints in charters and
laws that should regulate corpora
tiOns, we shall never improve the
situation by abusing the creatures
of our own making, and who are iu
part the product of our enthusi asm
neglect, greed and folly.-Chatta
nooga Times (DemOcratic.)
We print the foregoing to show
what the State-credit Democrat
think of the Tribune's abuse of oul
railroads.
We propose to give fair hearing
to both sides of all questions.
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1882-12-22
ton. We propose tostand to our

nation. We propose to stand to our
contracts like honest men. We
will resist every attempt to unsettle
the settlement. We will, in the
first place, consider whether any
proposed legislation is right, and
trust the people to endorse the
right.
The legislator whose first ques-
ton is: will it be popular? is unwor-
thy of the confidence of any honest
constituency. How can he learn
whether it will be popular or not ?
He is obliged to take the say-so of
four or five men, and they may be
wholly ignorant of public opinion.
The people love the thing that is
right. Their hearts have been set
to the tune of honesty, and all other
tunes are discordant. Their hearts
may be warped by the heats of
passion and prejudice, for a season,
but the cooling time ociU come; and
then the honest legislator will re-
ceive the crown of vindication.
We hope our Legislature will not
legislate for the passions of the
past, but for the conscience of the
future. The day is at hand when
every son of Tennessee should con-
slider how the honor of our State
can be best protected from stain,
and her interest be best promoted
without discredit.

THE TRIBUNE DISCIPLES.

Last Saturday was an eventful
day for Hiwassee College, a place
noted for its common quletude.
Three boys, Mr.. Todd, of Texas,
and Mr.. Hinshaw and Mr.. Sutton,
of Indiana, stole off to explore
Craighead cave, three miles away.
They entered the cave with a
torchlight, and, after wandering
about became lost in the labyrinth
ine passages. For some hours they
endeavored in vain to find their
way out again. Their light began
to flicker, but fortunately it did not
expire till they had passed the pit
said to be ninety feet deep. Then
Egyptian darkness was sill about
them. They searched their pockets
for matches, but could find but one,
and this missed fire! There they
were, in vast living tomb.-Mon-
roe Democrat.
We suppose these boys were in
search of the Tribune's graveyard
Here is another bad result of the
Tribune's teaching.
These boys were all rescued about
midnight, and we will go their Sc
curity that they will banker for "a
vast living tomb" and the Tribune
less in the future.

CONSCIENCE LEGISLATION.

AS the conscience of Tennessee
emerges out of the mists and fogs
of prejudice, like the sun out of an
eclipse, the feeling in favor of the
present settlement of the State
Debt becomes stronger and strong
or. A very large proportion of the
Wright men who voted for Bate
did so with the hope that the settle
ment would be allowed to stand.
The thousands of Russell men, who
at last concluded to vote for Bate
to defeat Hawkins, were prompted
by some assurances that the settle
ment would not be disturbed.
Notwithstanding these facts, the
abatement editors are insisting
that 80 & shall be carried into ef-
feet. HoU it shall be done, none OF
them can tell. They are at sea, In
a fog, without rudder or chart; and
the result is they all sail in q
circle.
The better class of Bate papers
like the Nashville American, de-
sire the settlement to stand. They
know the settlement is honorable
and favorable to Tennessee, and
that any attempt to unsettle it
would be dishonorable and unprof1t-
able.
The shrewdest men in the Demo.
cratic party are now engaged in q
secret programme to defeat any
scheme to unsettle the settlement
They know that Savage is leading
their party to the brink of the
precipice of perdition; and, as the
vapors rise up before them from
the gulf below, they heed the warn
ing, and are disposed to call halt

The great jackal of the Sun has
dug up Garfeld's ''dear Hubbell"
letter, written August 23d, 1880, and
prints a fac simile of it. The Ii
censed slanderer and defamer of the
dead of course did not print Hubs
bells letter of August 18th, 1880,
to which Garfeld's was perfectly
honorable reply.
Personally Jay Hubbell is thou-
sand times better man than Dana,
the assassin of character and COW
ardly slanderer of the dead. Per
sonally, and in every other way, he
is the superior of Ferry, and
we hope, since conservative
cannot be chosen, he will
beat the latter for the Michigan
vacancy in the Senate. 'tBut he as
sessed the clerks and worked the
spoils machine. Yes. Just as A
Jackson, Van Buren,, Pierce, Polk,
Jim Buchanan, A. Lincoln, Andy
Johnson, Grant, ct al, did. The
ievying of blackmail by Hubbell was
a mild performance compared with
operations of some of his illustrious
predecessors of both parties in that
line. And have we not now the
ablest Senator from the South oe-
Tending, day after day in his place in

reporter of a heavy dealer.
The crop this year is enormous,
more will be raised than during the
two previous years together. There
will be much larger crop in Ten

peclally in West Tennessee, where
numbers of farmers are raising them
as the only crop. Virginia raises
the finest peanuts in the world, and
more than any other State, and a
great many are shipped to Chatta-

Yours, respectfully,
E. M. De LA VERGNE.
Mr.. Willet Rose has returned from

Mr.. Willet Rose has returned from
the Grand Junction, and from him
We got a vivid idea of that section.
He says the trip down there now, is
very rough, and instead of riding
down long pleasant valleys, you are
all the time climbing high mesas. and
sometimes even attaining 10000
foot altitude. After getting down in
the 'Uncompahgre valley, however, it
is perfectly sublime. At the town OF
Montrose, where Joe Selig and VIM.
A. Eeker'y are located, he says there
are about 15o inhabitants, and that
there is no doubt but what it will
make good point. Building lots
are selling there at s25 and $50. Mr..
Rose then travelled on down about
seventy miles when he came to the
great point in that whole country,
Grand Junction, which is situated at
the junction OF the Grand and Gunni-
son, rivers and also where the South
Park railroad, which will go through
here, crosses the D. 4 R. G.. r. r.
He says there are about 700 people
there and more coming in all the
time, principally farmers looking for
ranches. He says the ranches are in
the hands of spectators who do not
intend to work them but simply took
them up on speculation, and saws the
character of the soil there is identical
with that of Southern Utah and Cali
fornia, and if anything richer, and as
soon as they get bitches run along up
on the bench land, it will be Just as
productive of fruits and vegetables as
Utah. Messrs. Hudson, Ramsden
and Schmitz, who are all we'll known
here, are living on ranches owned by
Messrs. Rose, Reed & Co.. and Mr..
Rose found them we'll and at work
building cabins and otherwise improv-
ing the ranches. They took a trip to
Utah to buy provisions which took
them fifty days, experiencing consid-
erable difficulty, as they had to cross
an alkali desert of several miles in
which their animals suffered more or
less.
