Temperance Axioms" From a Prohibition
View.
In looking over Turner County Her
aid the other day my eye CHANGED to
light upon the column appropriated by
CHI. Goddard's Temperance Axioms."
He starts out with the assumption
that the appetite for Intoxicating drinks
is natural and inherent appetite:
which were better proved than assumed.
That "unslain and unsubdued" ap-
petite, of which he speaks so eloquent
ly. is simply an appetite created by
alcohol, and soon dies out when no
longer nursed by its parent. 1t is with
this as with many other things, supply
creates the demand. There are commu-
mites all over our land where the sale
of liquors for drink purposes is un-
known, and tens of thousands of homes
where they are not used in any form;
and the people in these communities
and in these homes are not wretched on
account of the gnawing of an unslain
appetite for strong drink. They do not
go roaming and raving about, overturn-
ing planets, in hopes of finding a
whisky hole underneath. On the con-
trary, they go quietly and contentedly
to their beds at night, and cheerfully to
their labor or business in the morning,
having no commerce with, nor thought
of, the mocking "demon of darkness"
I would like to put Mr.. G. upon the
witness stand, and have him tell us
whether he has been indowed by his
Creator withsuch an appetite for strong
drink that he would lie down at the
mouth of a whisky cave and let his

Knorvills Tribuns. IL.

A Tribune reporter visited Andy Tay-
lor yesterday evening in his cell at the
county Jail. We found him enjoying a
game of seven up with three compan-
ions. He is Andy Taylor Of year ago,
except that his skin is winter from long
imprisonment. He told us in the begin
ming that he didn't want TO be interviewed
and wanted nothing said about him in
any newspaper. He only answered one
question, and that was If he was feeling
all right, TO which he replied emphatic,
ally that he was. We learn that
minister called on him few
days since, and to his entreaties 10 him
to prepare for the future, he responded,
"It there is such place as He'll my two
brothers are there, and so is Gate and
Conway, and when get there We'll have
general Strengthening up Of things.
He will face death as he has all Of his
difficulties, in cool and unhinching
manner.
We next visited VIM. Easily, who will
be executed the same day that Taylor
will. He declined TO talk much, but stated
that he was prepared to meet death and
that glorious future awaits him. He
says that he wishes his body sent TO his
sister at ROgersville, who will give it a
decent burial. He said that he was glad
the hanging was to be private and that he
was ready for the last chapter in the book
of his fated career

We heartily endorse all that the Nash.
vile World, of yesterday, says of ex-
Senator Mcdonald. These views &C
cord with expressions which have APP
peared from time TO time in the LEDGER.
But we do not think it necessary to antag-
onize Mr. Tilden or his friends. Hs has
rendered the party in the State of New
York distinguished services, and
received majority Of the pop
ular vote for President seven
years ago. Whatever his former aspira-
tions or acts in life he is practically a re-
tired statesman. 1t has been announced
that he is not and will not be candidate
Democrats, at least, can afford to let him
alone. He is quite an old man, but tor
all that he is not to be blamed for taking
an interest in politics. 1t would be ex-
ceedingly unfortunate for his friends to
insist on pressing his claims. If nom-
mated he would accept, of course
No man gets too old to
believe that he is fit to hold office. That
idea has never entered the head of any
American citizen yet, There are many
reasons why he would not be available or
suitable as candidate again. We can
afford to rest on the fact that he is too old.
The election is a year of. Tho National
Democratic Committee usually meets on
the 22d of February. The Conyen-
tion win meet probably in July In dis
cussing the merits and possibilities of
men, Il Is not best to be too Jealous
a long time in advance. To keep up a
well sustained enthusiasm six or eight
months requires tremendous effort. The
friends of man may start too early and
grow weary by the time their services are
most needed, At present Mr.. McDonalds
chances for the nomination seem equal, If
not superior, to those of any one yet
prominently named. The feeling in his
favor is steadily growing among the
men of his party, and when
the time comes for action he is likely to
have thoroughly organized and power
ful support. r
