The Nashville Election.

Special to Knoxville CHI on: Gle. 8f
NASHVILLE, October IL, 1890 p.
| m.-This has been a most exciting
day in our city. Never before in the
history of our city has there been a
local election that has SO aroused our
people. 1t was the first election I'M
der the new charter. generally called
the "reform charter There were
two tickets in the field: A Citizens
Reform ticket aud a Peoples Reform
ticket. G. Hooper Phillips was the
| candidate for Mayor on the former,
and Mayor Kercheval headed the
latter.
The vote has just been counted out
and tabulated. PHILLIPS andithe en>
tire Citizens ticket has been elected
by nearly two thousand majority
There were very few names scratcbei |,
the colored men on the ticket running
ever with the others.
A I write II town is wild with
excitement. The bulletin boards ut
the American aud Banner offices are
surrounded by immense throngs.-
Preparations are now being MA lie for
bonfres and serenades, and tie shout
ings Of the Phillips men. the yefis
and the laughter fill the air.
While there have been some distur-
Dances, they have been fewer and less
serious than anticipated, \
[The last Legislature radically med
fled the charter at Nashville. The
new charter provides for a mayor and
ten councilmen, no too counciimen
to be chosen from the same ward. and
all to be chosen on Il general ticket
voted for by the whole city, The
duties Of the councilmen are exclus-
lively Iogtsialiye. All of the execu-
| tive powers are vested ia the Mayor
and a Board of Lii" Works and
such officers as the councilmen may
elect or the Board appoint. The
councilmen are chosen for four
years.
The moye in favor of a reform
charter was SO popular that all par
ties claimed to be in favor Of it, and

Rugby's Chance.

The little village that was foun ded
in Tennessee several years ago by
some spirited Englishmen, who imag-
ined ali their fellow countrymen were
fond of elbow room and pure all
has not realized the expectations of
its founders. There are respectable
Americans who would rather die in
New York than live in the country
Who, then, can accuse Londoners
of stupidity in so coming to the
Tennessee Rugby? But if the FORE
fathers of the hamlet really intend,
as is reported, to found a high grade
school, like that of Rugby, Etcn or
Harrow, they will in time realize
handsome profits on their real estate
4 very good high school is needed by
most families who live within sey>

sands Of boys from Tennessee, Ken
lucky and other portions of the
Mississippi Valley are at school on
the Atlantic coast for the single
reason that their parents do not
believe they eau be properly educa-
ted or fitted for college nearer home.
Good teachers are abundant in Eng
land, and the owners of Rugby know
how to find tho best. If they will
send ii few oyer their village will
begin mt once to grow.

Ainterpreter he proceeded inland from
Hotham Inlet in q southeasterly di-
rection until he struck what he
believed to be the mysterious river,
He traced it to its mouth, a distance
of about fifteen miles, where he saw
such huge pieces of floating timber as
to satisfy him that the stream must
be OF immense size. He retraced his
steps for a distance of fifty miles,
where he encountered natives, from
whom he learned that to reach the
head Writer'S of the unknown stream
would take several months.
The Indians told him that they
had come down the river a distance
of 1,500 miles to meet u fur trader
and that Invent up higher than that.

tenant Storey returned. It is his
opinion, as stated by those on the
Corwin, from whom this information
was obtained, that the discovery of
this river accounts for the large
quantities of floating timber in the
Arctic Ocean, which has ipopularly
been supposed to come down The
Yukon River. Ire Indians stated
that the river in soma places is twenty
miles wide. It lies within the Arctic
circle, but in August, when Lieuten>

flowers and vegetation not hitherto
discovered in SO high a latitude. He
has forwarded his report to the Ssc>
Rotary of the Navy and hopes to be
permitted to go back and continue

presentation of the coal and iron
resources of the Southern States

the Southern people to the PRACTICAL
development of their rboundiess

The North furnishes the great
hulk of the wonderful labor saving
machinery, but the m of already
prominent Southern establishments
mingled with the names of the many
Northern factories, tell the story
that the South visited Northern
Expositions to SEQ and purchase
Northern inventions. Now the South
visits Northern Expositions to learn
COW to reproduce them in their own
section. And they are reproducing
them aud learning how to invite caps
ital from the North and multiply
factories to reap the profits they

THE WESTERN LESSON IN
:. THE ABC'S OF POLITICS.

The results in Ohio and Iowa last
week lead us to believe and hope
that the last has been heard of tenn
perance issues in modern politics.
If that desirable end shall have been
secured we shall not shed any tears
over the loss-even if it should
prove permanent-Of Que great
state to the republican party and
10000 votes from a 10000 majority
in another.
We conceive of no greater moral
disaster to the country than the
turning of great political party
into all anti-liquOr party, for the
sufficient reason that it would me-
cessitate the transformation of the
other great party into a liquor par
ty. This state of affairs brought
about we are convinced that the
ascendency of either would be pro-
ductive of untold evils to the entire
country.
If men would consider how many
hundreds, even thousands of years
it has taken to get mankind to acS
cept even the fundamental prohib-
itory principles of law and order
the prohibition of murder, of theft,
of arson, of treason, of adultery, of

BILE task of including in the list
drinking Of malt or alcoholic liquors.,
something which mankind Will new
er look upon at it's worst except as
4 crime against individual welfare
when carried to excess, and there's
fore something to be relegated to
moral and domestic influences.
Again, the political temperance
sentiment must always be fictitious
and Elusive. 1t is a church and a
domestic sentiment. Its strength
is among non.voters and those who
tlo not OF cannot go into politics

by the pulpit, and tn 1T influence.
however strong in what IS regarded
as its legitimate sphere, Neakens
shoclingly rs it approaches the
polls, and we are candid enough 10
say thatsour observation leads us to
believe that the time has passed
when that influence can avail any,
thing at the polls.
We do not desire TO offend tue
feelings of IL prohibition st. They
have a perfect right to agitate tenn
perauce politically if they wish to
do so, bat we do most sincerely hope
that in no State will tile republican
party show aay countenance to tenn
perance agitation OF the democratic
party allow itself to become a liquor
party. There is enough legitimate
work for both demanded by the well
fare of the country to employ their
time and their attenti,n without
going off Oh side issues like that of
temperance.
