ACnrIons Result.

Atlanta Journal.
A curious feature of the Connect
icut election this year is the fact
that the minority candidate for gov
ernor will be seated. By the state
constitution a candidate for a state
Office must receive q majority over
all or else the election is thrown in
to the lower house, the choice there
being limited to the two candidates
receiving the highest number of
votes. This year Waller, the demo-
cratic candidate, received 1928
votes more than Harrison, his re
publican opponent, but he has not
3 majority over all, and, as conse
orence, the lower house, which -
republican, can, and doubtless WILL
elect Harrison.

Jerry Cole slipped into the vault
of the American National Bank
last Saturday evening, and was hid
when the hour for closing came.
The great iron bolts were turned
into their sockets and the time lock
adjusted for Monday morning.
The vault is air-tight, but there is
necessarily sufficient air to support
life for a time. Monday morning
the vault was opened and out
stepped Jerry as lively as ever.

AIden's Literary Revolution,

John B. Alden's Literary Revo-
luton, though possibly not max
ing so large a "noise" IN the world
as three or four years ago when
it's remarkable work was new to the
public, is really making more sub
stantial progress than ever before.
A noticeable item is the improved
quality of the books issued. Gut
zots famous History Of France
not sold, till recently, for much
less than $4,000, is put out in eight
small octave volumes, ranking with
the handsomest ever issued from
American printing presses, includ-
ing the 426 full page original illus
trations, and is sold for $500. Raw
linson's celebrated "Seven Great
Monarchies of the Ancient Eastern
World is produced in elegant
form, with all the maps and illus
trations, reduced in price from
SIS to 1915. These are but repre-
sentative of an immense list of
standard works, ranging in price
from two cents to nearly $1,000,
which are set forth in descriptive
catalogue of 100 pages, and which
is sent free to every applicant. it
certainly is worth the cost of pos
ia, card to the publisher, John B.

The most shameful thing of the
last several years is the action of
the Coufier-.Journal and the Nash
vile World with reference to Hon.
Sam. Randalps coming visit south.
They rise in indecentsfrenzy and
hurl anathemas and horrid mouth
ings at him. A stranger would
think he was a marplot or q horse
thief, instead of the best man of the
nation. All because he does not
believe the same way they do on
the tariff. This abusive and over
bearing pig-headedness is of a
piece with the policy that controls
in Tennessee. Narrowness, igno-
rance, intolerance, stuckupness
The south has been resting for
years under false accusations that
have been believed largely at the
north and it has helped to shape
events against us for years and
years. Vainly have we denied.
We begged them for years to inves-
tigate and see that lies were told OF
us. Now another era is daWning
and the man who stood almost
alone at the peril of his life in dark
days succeeding the war, the cham
pi5n and defender of the south
comes at the urgent invitation ol
thousands of grateful admirers
when these two abominable party
wreckers bristle up and abuse him
1t is shameful in the extreme.

There is relentless war raging
between Blaine and Arthur. Arthur
is accused of being nil in the can
vass; and now that he wants to be
senator, Blaine's puppets are snap
ping at his calves. 1t is the first
time in % years that a president
showed by his acts that he was the
president of the United States in
stead of the republican party. He
stands just by that much immeas-
urably above any OF his associates

There is a demand in many coun-
ties in Tennessee that the county
court at the January term appoint
tax assessors from among outside
citizens. The rule is to appoint
magistrates. They are officials and
humans, and having some regard
for elf,cannot possibly divest them
selves of extraneous influences. 1t
is intended as no reflection upon
their honesty of intention. Sup
pose our Giles county court try it
once. 1t is just to all men that
property be assessed vigorously and
in cold accuracy, without partiality
Magistrates do not show any parti-
atty that we are aware of, but there
being some dissatisfaction, it would
do no harm to appoint outsiders
and see if there are any errors in
assessments existing.

Bill arp on the Omce-Sceker.
Uneasy lies the head that wears
a post 0ffice-or most any other Of
fee; especially one that has politics
IN it; more especially one that
comes from Washington, where
politics. is studied like a game OF
chess, and every pawn and every
piece has to be moved to protect
the king, that is the president.
The player not only catches his adj
versaries and sweeps them from the
board, out when the king is in dan
ger he will sacrifice his own men
WHO have been fighting faithfully,
and sweep them away too. It is a
wonder 20 me that anybody will
banker after such business. Be
fore man gets an Office be is doing
something that makes a living for
his family, and he quits thai, and
breaks up and loses his trade or
custom, and begins to live on sal
airy and feels good for a whiic, but
suddenly he goes overheard and
has no trade to fall back on. In
the meantime his children are
growing up, and have got new ways
and habits, because pa is in Office
and handles more money thar he
used to, and they must step little
higher in society, and dress finer,
and give more parties, and take a
more fashionable pew in the meet
ing house. And so when the fall
comes it is hard one, and the
poor fellow don't know what to do.
He can run post Office, or col
lect revenues, or get after the
moonshiners with alacrity, but post
offices don't lie around loose, and
when a fellow loses one he can't
pick up another and keep on in the
same line of business.

Gen. Sherman recently asserted
that Ex- President Davis attempted
to establish a despotism of the
Southern Confederacy, with himself
as dictator, and that a letter exist
ed wherein Mr.. Davis expressed
such views. 1t was written to Sen
ator Zeb Vance and was in its ex-
preston an absolute reversal of
the principle upon which he was
fighting the war, in that he used VIC
lent threats of coereian against any
state that would dare attempt to
withdraw from the confederacy or
nullify any of his edicts. Mr.. Davis
very promptly wrote that Gen.
Sherman had lied. OF course the
general of all the armies cannot
lis(2)! But 10, here comes the let
ter, fished up from the debris of con-
federate archives, and behold the
x-general of all the armies does
most egregiously lie. Not one word
or expression or inference can be
drawn from it that remotely sus-
tains the charge. Sherman thought
possibly he could attract a little
cheap attention and that Davis was
too old to respond, and wouldn't
dare deny big generals word, or if
he did the people wouldn't believe
him. Or possibly he was trying to
outblaiae Blaine. How ridiculous
it makes the little house burner
