tested itSelf,, Mr., Frank Hurd, the Free

Democratic party desires TO continue in
power Ii must reduce the tariff and
strip it of all its protective features as
quickly as IL can be done, with a
view to ultimate free trade with the
world. Ny canvass was made squarely
upon that issue, aud l propose, so tar
"a in me lies, to carry that canvass into
the country ar large and have no doubt
the next Presidential campaign will be
fought largely If not entirely upon that

The People of Tate County Angry
Chalmers Carried the County
Fairly.
VICKSBURG, Miss, Nov. 22.-The
full development of all the facts In the
Manning-Chaimers case intensities the
regret of Democrats at the hasty action
of the Secretary of State in transferring
from Chalmers to Chambless the 412
votes of Tate County. The Tate coun'
ty voters are very Indignant at being
put on the State records as such fools
as not to know for whom they were
casting their ballots, and Democrats
here fear that the ill.advised action Of
Secretary Meyers will react strongly
against the party and strengthen the
disorsanizing tendency Of Independent
ism, of which General Chalmers is the
exponent in Mississippi
The Commercial to-day publishes an
extract from a letter of Lieutenant
Governor Stands, who lives in Tate
County, to Colonel j. W. YOungblood,
Editor of The Com mercial. After de-
failing the manner in which the mis-
take occurred, which was perfectly nat
ural, Mr.. Stands concludes as follows;
1dJG SOhuby NpUVu lhAliy Iva Lb'
Chalmers, and he received majority
fairly, SO far as l know. There were
some illegalregstrations, in my opinion,
but not enough to cover the majority OF
3OG. opposed Chalmers with my best
endeavor, but he carried the county and
ought to have it.
In further confirmation of the fore
going The Commercial to-day also
prints the following from J. M. Will
iiams: 81, as one Of the clerks, do not
know who wrote the name of j. Il,
Chambless If it was 30 written, it
was certainly clerical error and not
intentionally doLe, either by the clerks
or supervisor of the election" The
issioners of Election for Tate
County indorse Nc williams state
ment, and say: There was no such
candidate in the county as r. Cham
bless, and the 1,472 tickets had j,
r. Chalmers name printed ON them .

Letting Ones House.

To refined mind the notion of letting
ones house, ones home-the sacred
center whence spring all the tendrils of
the heart, the neuclus of life's joys,
hopes and Suffering-must be inexpresS-
IDLY repugnant. A stranger sleeps in
your bed, fingers your favorite books,
sneerS at your pet arrangements, dimes
at your hospitable board, and ferrets out
all your particular contrivances. Moth
ing is sacred, nothing is hidden from
him; he cuts and mangles your precious
flowers, wipes his feet on your carefully
preserved carpet, Tolls about and tears
the chintz off your peculiar armchair,
breaks the old familiar crockery and up
sets the ink over a long-respected table
cover. The very walls seem to tell him
your secrets and to unVeil the thoughts
of your mind; for the atmosphere OF a
house is, so to speak, redOlent of the
person himself; whether he be smoker,
a recluse and bookworm whose heart
delights in the scent of Russia leather, a
diLettGnte dabbling in oil-paints, an es-
thetic redOlent of incense and faint lilies,
hOuse-mother fond of homemade Law
ender and pOt-pOuTTi, an invalid given
to the fumes of eau-de-cologne and
ether, a fine lady saturated with pOudre
de rig and the scent of frangipanni and
peGat d. Espagne- whoever and whatever
he may be, the house tells his history, in
its faint odors, in the perfume of forgot
ten drawers, in the reek of study-cur-
tain, in the intangible quality of the air.
The arrangement of the furniture be-
trays the tone of a mans mind, whether
he be precise, orderly or luxurious; the
combination and harmony of colors re-
veals his taste, the quality OF stuffs de-
cides whether he be penurious, generous
or lavish. The number of dining-room
chairs tells what company he keeps, the
marks of nails on the stairs whether
there are boys about the place, the
names of the books in the library to
what degree of culture he has attained
whether he is sporting, horsey, liter
airy or devout. The offices show the
state of his income by the number oil
servants he keeps, the size of the cellars
his qualities of temperance and sobriety
There is not nook of the mans mind
that remains unexplored. His loves
his hopes, his ambitions, his wife's
housekeeping, his daughters vanity, the
number of his children-all are laiC
bare to the careless gaze of the casua
observer. World.
