THE FIRsT NATIONAL RANK.

This institution has been intimately
and prominently connected with the com
mercial history of Memphis for the past
eighteen years. 1t passed safely through
every viscissitude Or crisis, and stands to-
day as solvent and as well established in
the confidence of the business community
as any banking house in the country.
During all these eventful years Mr.
+. s. Davis has been the Pres
ident. By his excellent management,
untiring attention to business and genial
disposition, he made the institution pop
ulsr success. The stock is in demand at a
fancy figure. The surplus has been in.
creased fourteen thousand dollars within
the last six months, besides dividend Of
4per cent upon the capital stock. After
SO many years of valuable service and
successful management, Mr.. Davis decided
to give more attention to other interests,
and this morning at meeting of the di-
rectory, after reelection, he rendered
his resignation, which was accepted with
a sincere and proper expression of
regret. From this time forward he
will give his undivided attention to
the affairs of another local institu-
ton, in which he, by recent purchase,
has become the principal stock holder.
His own and the interests of others seemed
to require such step. In term of service
Mr.. Davis is the Oldest bank President in
Memphis by several years, although COM
paratively a young man, and he retires
from this position with all the laurels,
evidences of success and good will that
any man could desire. Fortunately his
capital and financial ability will not be
lost to Memphis. He remains with us
as one of the live, progressive men Of
the city. at the election Mr.. N. NJ.
Jones was chosen as his successor, a
worthy man to be at the head of a bank
so prosperous and so populsr with the
business community. Three new Direc-
tors were chosen H. A. Montgomery

Mr.. Jones is a thoroughly wide awake

the retirement of Mr.. Davis better selec-
tion from the excellent board could hard
ly have been made. The event is one of
no little interest in this community and

We congratulate the officers, di-

commercial spirit of Memphis.

VICKsBURG Herald; A contradictory
condition as to cotton exists in many
Southern cotton markets. All the South
ern. cities want more cotton than they
usually get and continually cry out for
more, more At the present time there
is glut of cotton everywhere in the
South. This is not because the crop
is larger than expected, but because
the buyers in Europe have not pur-,
chased, up 10 this time, within half
million bales of the amount they
usually purchase. The sharp ones in New
Orleans declare there is a systematic effort
to break down the price, but that as the
South is at last getting independent, the
cotton factors are able to hold for short
crop prices, and intend to do it. fthis is
so, they deserveto be encouraged in every
way by the planting community. At all
events there's u glut of cotton allaround,
but as cotton is as good as gold and silver,

things. A kindly smile greeted the
announcement that Mr.. Blair and
myself were still running him for
President, and the matter was after
wards fully talked over. I feel war
ranted in saying, what have been says
ing at intervals for years, that Mr..
Illden will not again enter public
life, but If he remains as well in health
in 1884 as he is now there will be a
lively demand for his leadership in the
National Convention. AS is usual on
my visits to Greystone, renewed my
personal acquaintance with the Jer.
seys and Guernseys that are so beau
tiful and interesting. Three calves
have been added to the family within
a few weeks which are lovely to look
upon. Don't you want a bull?" said
the venerable statesman, who was so
much in earnest about it that l
thought it prudent to guard against a
possibility to answer that II have
no place to keep it. Referring to
politics again, Mr.. Tilden spoke
freely of men in our Democratic
leadership as matters now stand, in
cluding affairs in New York that are
so unpromising. 1t is idle to disguise
the fact that the Democratic situation
in New York is not very promising.
Democrats are as disgusted with the
bosses as the Republicans can be. Mr..
Kelley is simply a machine wrecker,
and the County Democracy ride in
coupes and do not see the masses.
Tammany has ceased to be more than
a balance of power to punish the enc.
mics of Mr.. John Kelly. This is the
man who gave New York over to the
control of the Republican party, from
which Mr.. Tilden SO bravely redeemed
it, and who also defeated General
Hancock by his jealous indifference
and factioDal combinations last year.

IT is, perhaps, we'll enough for the
School Board to hesitate before paying
the teachers for the holiday week, when
they were not on duty. 1t is small
matter, it is true, but worth considering.
If they are paid for this full week it is
that much given for nothing. The teach
ers are not paid much, it is true, but the
pay has never been so small as to create
vacancies or scarcity of teachers. There

elsewhere, but the question is one which
is worthy of the attention of the Board.

No Delay in stringing Him Up.

WASHINGTON, January 81 see +"
said one of the lawyers, counsel in the
prosecution Of the Guiteau case, this
morning, that some one has made the
startling discovery that Guiteau could
not be executed, if he we're sentenced
tomorrow, until May. This discovery,
it it were true, would be startling, as
1t rests simply on misconstruction of
a section in the Revised Statutes re-
lating to the District Of Columbia,
with whose provisions the humblest
member of the District Bar is familiar.
It is not SO startling as is supposed,
Ii Guiteau were to be sentenced this
week, he might be hanged next week.
he certainly could be next month.
You may rest assured there will be no
unnecessary delay after he is pro
nounced responsible murderer, and
sentenced to suffer the penalty he has
incurred. The statute to which |
refer, and which is evidently the basis
for the erroneous statement l have
read in the newspapers, was enacted
July z, 1913. Under it, the Judge
presiding at the criminal term, on ap-
plication Of the accused, is required to
suspend execution of the sentence for
a reasonable time, not to exceed thirty
days, after the end of the next term
of the Appellate Court. The obvious
purpose Of this provision is to give
counsel for the defense an opportunity
to appeal to the court in bane. Coun-
sci for the defense having entered
their appeal, the case affected can be
certified up at once and can be
heard by the Appellate Court within
week. That would probably be the
course in this case. The period of
suspension OF execution is, you see,
discretionary with the court within a
certain limit. At all events, there
will be no unnecessary or improper
delay"

KENTUCKY BROKE LOOSE.
a Wild. BIoOdlsss Riot in Court.
Many Shots, but No COrpses.

LOUISVILLE, January 1l.-A special to
the Courier-Journal from Mt Vernon
says; This little village, usually so quiet,
was to-day the scene Of wild, tumultuous
but bloodless riot. The Circuit Court was
In session, A. 0. Bradley sitting as special
judge. The cause of the Commonwealth
against Robert Randall, murder, was on
trial, and witnesses were testifying. John
Mullins, witness in the case, who had
been placed under the rule came into
the courtroom in an intoxicated condition,
and was leaning against the bar, Judge
Bradley spoke to him. asking him if he
was not witness. Upon his reply in the
affirmative, he asked him what he was
doing in the court room, Mullins re-
sponded thai he was standing there, he
reckoned.
Fine him ten dollars, Mr.. Clerk" said
the Judge, when Mullins made another
insulting remark and another fine of ten
dollars was ordered against him. Another
insulting remark was followed by an order
from the court to the jailer to take Null
Inns into custody. Mullins then ran out
ofthe court room, followed by the iailer
and two Deputy Sheriffs. who pursued
him some little distance out of town, when
he turned and fred shots at them. The
two Sheriffs fred, but no one was hit.
After short chase, Mullins was
captured and brought to the court
room by posse He was accompanied
by his father, Champ Mullins, who was
also intoxicated. John Mullins was or
dered to Jail by Judge Bradley. Where
upon he and his father both arose and de-
clared he should not be taken to Jail.
Champ is one Of the most powerful men
physically in the county, and it takes
half dozen ordinary men to hold him.
When the jailer and posse started with
John to Jail the prisoner and his father re-
sisted
The scene which followed beggars
description. A large crowd in the court
room broke into the widest disorder, men
we're knocked down, pistols drawn and the
guards rushed in with shotguns, and the
rush for doors and windows was tremen-
dous. The Mullins and the officers fought
their way out of the courtroom and down
the stairs into the street. When they
reached the street some one
gave John Mullins a pistol,
with which he fred two shots,
in what direction is not known. Both
men were finally arrested and placed in
Jail where they now are. The excite
Dment was at fever heat for awhile, and
everybody breathed freely when quiet
was restored, and the closest search failed
to discover any corpse. As soon as the
disorder began Judge Bradley left the
bench, shouted, II call on every man in
this house to help arrest these men, and l
will assist myself" and he lent such as
sistance as he could.
The jury in the Randall case were scat
tered in a confused crowd, and after res
toration of quiet, by agreement of both
sides, they were discharged from further
consideration of the case, and the trial was
continued till the next term. The day
was the most disgraceful in our countys
history, and good citizens should now rally
to the support of law and see that nothing
like it occurs again.

any preeepts Of probity, such as the
eighth commandment. Thirty years
hence no one will employ a person
from Memphis or Fayetteville, be-
cause of the whole town being in bad
odor. Communities make regulations
for themselves as easily as do individ-
uals. Can good come out of Naza-

This comes with bad grace from a
city as much stepped in corruption as
any city in the world, and where
among its leading officials the eighth
commandment is about as much in
force as is the South Carolina Act of
Secession. We must not be understood
as advocating the repeal of city char
ters to avoid lawful debts. This we
consider the weakest sort of repudia-
ton, but at the same time we do not
propose to allow our sister city Men,
