We remarked last week that in the
matter Of the Fentress county rail-
road, Mr.. Walton, the Mortgages,
and Mr.. Crawford were "at one"
We find our information was little
ahead Of the facts of the case, and
the "wish" as "father tothe thought"
was, probably, the cause of the an
nouncement. In sentiment there
was a oneship on this side of the
water, but regarding the donation Of
the land just across the Clear Fork,
it was necessary to confer with the
Mortgages. The proposals made
by Mr.. Crawford, through Mr.. Cyrus
Clarke, the details of which we
published three or four weeks ago,
have been forwarded to London,
and the conclusions and intentions
of'the Mortgages, as soon as they
are arrived at, will be telegraphed
to Mr.. Walton.

The largest newspapers are not
necessarily the best. The RUGBE1AN,
which has only five columns to the
page, is one of the most interesting
country papers in the State, and is
doing as much in behalf of the
interests of it's immediate section as
itispossible for any weekly journalto
do. 1t is sensible, pointed, honest and
earnest-not working to make a
show of itself, but to make the most
of Rugby and its surroundings
Daily Times, Chattanooga, Oct. l9.
Many thanks! The kindly esteem
Of capable contemporary is en-
couraging-it gives an impetus tc

THE peopling of Rugby hangs fire !;
the business doesn't run as it should
do. 1t is too slow a process to
await the populating of this wide
plateau from the present residential
resources alone. We want healthy
and energetic men and women, with
some little capital and patience, and
a fair knowledge Of farming, to come.
We also want the artizan and manu-
facturer. What has been said of
Rugby, outside, has been very largely
Of a misrepresenting and injurious
character. We are, however, steadily
recovering our good name. Now, to
help put a better complexion upon
affairs, would it not be well for the
Board, or the Mortgages, to send

The riddle of the Egyptian Sphinx
now is: What shall be done with
Arab Pasha? The swart Egyptian
leaders say death must be the only
answer, anything less will be in
tolerable. In England there are
many holding the sameviews. Victor
Hugo, as a large mouthpiece of
France, pleads for the life of Arab.
Arab, himself, fears the worst.
The mixed committee to try him
are at work, and soon will be known
the fate of one who has proved but
an unripe leader in an unripe cause
that had, however, a real and deep
national grievance to be righted.

around, "on the stump" an honest
lecturer or two, we'll posted in the
history, condition, and capabilities
of the colony? Let ga plain, un-
vanished tale" be told, and, we
guarantee, such an interest will be
aroused, that, before many months
elapse, we should see an influx of
the class of men that must come,
before the settlement is the success
it is capable Of becoming. There is
no business that will make much
headway without wise advertising.

OUR correspondent, "White Oak"
in his incisive and somewhat trench
ant letter, hits the nail well on the
head, when he says Of Rugby, 1.-The
one reason for it's existence was that
it might serve as a base Of operations
toward the development of the
country beyond This was the idea
and expectation Of the originators of
the colony, and which, with our cor
respondent, we think, will yet be
carried out. We believe Rugby will,
as much from the force of outside
circumstances, as from any initiative
inside energy, or Board, or Mort
gagee assistance, "work out it's own
salvation" by helping to work out
other peoples. A system of exclu-
sive selfshness will always be a dead
letter in the long run, and policy
Of suicide will never maintain the
life of a place. The policy of the
old dispensation was of such a
nature. The new dispensation augurs
a better future, and, if there be
any meaning in words and honesty
in men, wiser and more liberia
measures.

The tiresome teetotallers and pro-
hibitionists are again thrusting their
unhallowed heads into the ballot
boxes, and disorganizing party hopes
and arrangements. With the desire
of scattering the hosts of whisky
dom, the anti-whiskey men in some
quarters only succeed in pulling
down ruin upon their own heads, to
find comfort again in other sections
by rising to the surface, and floating
far above all principalities and
powers of darkness. The battle
Auctuates in different parts of the
field. There is no certainty Of
securing the temperance vote, a
weak, shaky platform will scare it
away to a frmer foothold; which
has, however, frequent shakiness
and want Of party support on general
questions. The teetotaller is a dark
horse, and, usually, as uncompro-
missing as death, or rent day. 10
the persistent party man he is a
frightful annoyance, and is viewed
with a sentiment of much bitterness.
Some even guide their political
course by that taken by the pro-
hibitionist, and exclaim, with Bird
ofredum Sawin,
There's one rule I've been guided by, in settlin
how to VOTE oliers,-
take the side thet isn't took by them con-
sarned teetotallers.
But the "consarned teetotallers'
mean business, and if defeated now
and again, will come up, like Tug
Wilson, smiling, and persist in
recording votes for temperance men
and measures, until at the doors Of
all the Legislatures, the claims Of
men who have the greatest and most
urgent reform at heart, will be heard
and respected. The elections just
coming on will be largely leavened
by prohibition votes.

Thus Prof. Tors,ey is still the superin-
tendent of our schools. We might lust as
well permit any other public officer to
hold an Office in some foreign land and
still continue his local Office, drawing his
salary just the same. Supposing our
sheriff were to accept an appointment to
Berlin, would this very generous with the
peoples money )board of education warrant
the county commissioners in continuing
his salary upon the same grounds, i. e.,that
he was in correspondence with his depu-
ties. President johnson would probably
be one of the very first to cry out against
such and unwarranted and illegal DISPOSE
tion of the public funds, and he would be
right in doing so.
Why don't Mr.. johnson and the other
members of the board-the heavy tax-pay-
ers quoted by Mr.. johnson and the others
make up purse and let the school funds
be expended as designed?

MEDICAL MOUNTEBANKs.

Praiseacorthy Effort Of the Hoard OF
Health to Rid the City of "Street Doctors.''
Minneapolis, like most cities of its size,
has for long time been cursed by large
number of medical mountsbanks who
open up business from carts on the
st set corners, and by dint of elaborate ele :
cutionary displays by torchlight succeed in
vending large quantities of bad and worth
less compounds which they vociferously
assert are infallible panaceas ''for every
ill the human flesh is heir to-" Often
times these noxious compounds are worse
than useless by being injurious to health.
None are SO easily humbugged as those
who are suffering from some malady-
probably from their anxiety to free them
selves from the spectral shackles
of disease. The result is
more disastrous than any
one save regular practicing physicians are
fully aware.
The board of health has finally taken
the matter in hand, and is now devising
some means of ridding the community
of quacks. To accomplish this the
board proposes to memorialize the
city council for the passage
of an ordinance requiring all physicians
to register with the board of health, to be
by it first thoroughly inspected.

German Beds and Pillows.

German beds, almost without excep-
ton, are .single-yes, very single-so
much SO that the occupant if heattempts
to deviate an inch OF two from hori-
zontal position finds himself sprawling
on the floor.
The sheets, the bed blankets, etc., are
made just to fit the beds and are never
wide enough to "tuck in." They are
seldom but an inch or two wider than
the mattress, and it requires the skill
and experience of an acrobat, especially
with foreigner, to keep the bed-clothes
evenly balanced over him. And then
the grumblers grllmble at the pillows,
which they declare are either too large
or too small. too hard or too soft, and
that the only people who know how to
make comfortable pillows, and who have
them, are the Americans Many of the
hotels and boarding houses here adopt
the French pillow, which is about half
the size of the mattress and stuffed out
so hard and plump that the only benefit
the tired traveller gets from it is to have
it serve as rest for the back while he
sleeps in sitting position.
The majority of pillows, however.
found in Germany are made wedge
shaped, of the same material aa the mat
tress, and come to a point near the CEN
ter of the bed. On these, the sleeper,
If he sleeps, rests on an inclined plane,

MORE SUITS FOR DAMAGES.

Cornelius Burke and Florence Il. R0Iif
Claim $4,000 and $4,000 Respectively
From the Minneapolis Union Rdilac0y
Company and Ed,eard Darragh.
About the middle of last July by the
breaking of gag, portion of the frame
work for one Of the arches of the stone
arch bridge, fell distance of fifty feet in
to the river below, carrying with it two men
Cornelius Burke and John Victor Baliff
who were at the top of the arch at the
time. The Burke-was badly
and at first it was thought fatally injured
and Balif was instantly killed, his body
floating down the river from whence it was
not recovered for several days. AS a
sequel to the owe, in the district court
yesterday papers were filed by Cornelius
Burke, bringing suit against the Mime
apolis Union Railway company and Ed.
ward Darragh, the contractor in charge OF
the work, to recover $4,000 damages
Mr.. Burke enumerates among his injuries
received, a broken arm, a broken leg
and many others, and claims
that the defendants were respon
sible for the framework not being
carefully and securely erected and made
as it should have been before any mer
were ordered to go out on it. Mrs. Flor
ence a. Baliff, widow of John V. Balif
also claims $4,000 damages, the complaint
being nearly identical. At the coroner's
inquest held soon after the accident the
jury failed to place any blame on the
contractors, they claiming. that the
arch was blown down and that no precau
tion of theirs could have avoided the
