HOME JOURNAL.

We had written, for this issue Of the
Home Journal, several article Of . DO.
litical, and some Of local, character,
but after reading the articles headed
Winchester" in the Nashville Ameri.
can Of Sunday, we abandoned all other
newspaper thoughts for this week, ex.
cept 70 reproduce the Americans srti.
Gle. II comes from A. s. Colyar, editor
Of the American. We do believe that
the article will be welcomed by every
reader Of the Home Journal Personal.
", we think it is worth "A years sub.
scription W the Journal to every man,
woman and child who has ever lived,
now lives, or expects To live, in this
county, because it is a concise aud
truthful statement of facts that the his.
torian would need, and every resident Of
the county should have.
OF course We can speak only from,
what we knew of late years, but when
we read the article to two aged-aimost
togenarlan relatives Of ours, and
they corroboratcd all they heard, we
could but wish that Col. Colyar would
"write a book" In the article we re.
produce he is so concise; so free from
partizan feeling 60 noble 'iu his utter.
ances
Aud Mr.. Colyar is n self.made man.
One older than us, but to whom we owe
our life, knew MIR. Colyar in bis teens.
Yet both were at antipodes in politics.
One was Democrat, Mr.. Colyar was a
Wing. But Mr.. Colyar, erratic as he
may have seemed to partizans in poll.
tics, has never done or said aught that
was not for the general good, and Mat is
true Democracy. The editor of the
Hume Journal embraces this occasion to
pay this compliment to Col. A s. Col.
var, and to personally assure him that
he means it politically, religiously and
otherwise.
There has never yet, to our knowl-
edge, been any measure of any charac.
ter that proposed the good Of the people
that Col. Colyar has not supported in
all reasonable ways. And We think
that this day there is no man in the
United States more worthy of regard, or
one who could more successfully dis.
charge all duties in any Office, that of
President Of the United States not ex.
cepted. But he is too progressive
that is his fault.

vlLLARD's FALL.

llSuIY llldl hho
nation of the Presidency of his last three
great transportation companies, and 1t
has been accepted. The vail ~interposed
between the public and his transactions
in Northern Pacific is now removed. 1t
is said that the principal influences
which induced him to resign are the at
tacks Of newspapers and the complaints
of his friends, and though it is an anom-
ally for a railroad king to yield to such
a as these, there are good reasons
for believing the explanation is the true
one. 1t certainly is not correct, the
San Francisco Alta thinks, to say Willard
was forced to resign, for it has never
been charged that there was a rebellion
against him in the Board OF Directors OF
any of the companies. A ~pachyderma-
tons hide is associated with all our ideas
of,a Wall.street speculator and a great
railroad operator. 1t is nothing less
than ludicrous to think OF Jay Could
for example, retiring from an enterprise
in which he should see a chance to make
money because of the offensive criti.
cisms of the newspapers. But Henry
Willard is not only a very different man
from Jay Gould, but also different from
any other great railroad operator we
have had in this country. OF recent
years we nave heard a good deal Of that
impracticable character, ''the scholar In
politics." and Willard is the first exam
pie of the scholar in railroad manage
ment. He is visionary and theoretical
occupied with grand plans for a revolu-
ton in the methods of conducting bust
ness enterprises, and quite deficient
in practical good sense. His training
was not such as to fit him for railroad
management. He began as a newspaper
correspondent, and has always remained
too much of a literary character to be at
home among the bulls and bears of Wall
street. 1t is seen now that the fault
with his management was that ne
planned his enterprise on too magnificent
a scale. The Northern country is not
yet sufficiently populated to support
such a vast system Of transportation.
Unfortunately for himself, Willard was
as successful in raising funds Tor the exc
cution of these enterprises as he was i'm
petuous in planning them. Had he been
cramped for means, he would o have
undertaken such lavish outlay on mag
niicent depots, bridges aud hotels, and
in constructing branch lines before they
were needed. His success in getting
funds was due as much to his difference
from the ordinary speculator as to any
other cause. He was thought to be a
man above deceit-an honest man among
the thieves of Wall street-and persons
who would not have trusted their funds
to other spectators, even with the
fullest information, fastened to put them
in Wizards hands for use in blind pools
and other dubious financiering. Proba-
bly, Willard was honest in believing that
his magnificent visions would materialize
and did not think when he invited his
friends to invest that they would be
losers. Many of them have been swamped
in Wizards gigantic speculation, but he
has gone down with them, and he, per-
haps, suffers more by the crash. morally
and financially, than any other loser.
