When the tariff reform question
was first mooted a year or so ago a
thousand score of cleaning pencils
leaped from the vest pockets of
country editors all over the land
and the busy brains went to work.
Directly this one called that one a
Ounce and that one said this one
was q fool, and both were right, and
each and all had a theory. Each
theory when put on paper was like
the flying machine lunatic's idea
he has it perfected in his mind but
when the machine is madethe durn
thing keraummuxes Every editor
that tackled the tariff had to go to
the springs and they are coming in
new when the pumpkin is in the yell
lowl eaf and the big -lunged farmer
with a red ribbon pinned to his collar
is crying, "bring in your three-year
old bulls" and the pencil that erst
itehed to tear the tariff to tatters
now has no higher ambition than to
stick solemnly out of the vest pocket
of its owner while he sits as judge
in ring of tow-headed mule-dad-
dies. Thus and thus it is that the
country is occasionally saved,
snatched as a brand as it were, by
her brave sons with seatless breeches
who stand upon the watch-towers
of a six column patent outside and
watch for dead head tickets.

The Cotton Market,

The Pulaski market was at a
stand-still yesterday. Wagons came
briskly, but sales were slow. There
were crowds gathered on the corners
excitedly discussing the matter and
much Indignation was felt and ex-
pressed. The situation is about
this: The buyers desire to weigh
cotton at the depot so that the agent
there will be responsible for it and
hold it until they are ready to ship.
If they weigh up town the agent
will ship it that night or it lays
there at buyers risk. Sellers want
to weigh up town on tested scales,
by the lawful weigher, and allege
that the depot scales are inaccurate.
The railroad has the advantage and
is using it mercilessly. There are
two sides to this question which it
is not necessary to dicuss now
There is one fact that needs to be
impressed, and that is that Pulaski
will suffer if the situation is not
improved. There was a committee
yesterday informally of
two merchants and two farmers to
confer with Mr.. Teft and try to adj
just the thing amicably. We hear
of no such difficulty at other points.
Pulaski pays $1.75 to ship a bale of
cotton to Nashville while Decatur
pays but 81, we are informed, and
yet after grinding US thus out of
several thousand dollars q year they
must come to us and say ''you shall
submit toNour weights" We do not
believe this matter has been properly
brought before them or they would
not do it. There was serious talk
yesterday of putting on a wagon
train to Nashville. We doubt not
that the matter will be amicably
settled soon. 1t must be. Pulaski
cannot afford for it to remain thus,
snd,the,. farmers'interests demand it.
JIG. Ambrose, Memphis, says: "My
wife suffered from dyspepsia and ner-
vous debility, and Browns Iron Bitters
alone relieved her."

A Banner correspondent urges
the selection of Ex-Gov. John G.
Brown for second place on the ma
tional democratic ticket. He calls
Gov. Brown a resident of Missouri.
His abiding place is Pulaski, Tenn.
But that does not affect the .ques-
tion. OF course it would be graft
flying to his friends and admirers
to have him chosen to such high
distinction, but we should be sorry
to see him sacrificed to it. Gov.
Brown is on the road to financial
distinction and fortune and it would
involve serious loss to him to drop
out and sit for a season in the
chair that, has toppled so many
men over into oblivion. There are
sectional objections that would be
urged effectively. We have long
held that the south had a right to
demand equal political privileges
with the north, but they haven't
granted it yet. And yet, we'll
throw our hat away if he wants it
and they select him. He's a noble,
grand man.
