A BIZ MnnufncturIno Scheme.

1t is announced in Tuesdays
Philadelphia Press that an inn
menSe syndicate is forming at Bir-
mingham, England, for the estab-
lIshment of great manufacturing
system in the southwest. The OBJ
jective points are the corn and cot
ton fields of the Mississippi valley.
The information comes direct from
Birmingham and to this effect:
"The wealthieSt and most influen-
tial syndicate the world has ever
seen is now in course of formation
here for operations in the western
states. The object which the tinan-
ciers who are acting in concert have
in view is to transport into the
United States of America the lead
ing industries of this country. 1t
must be well known to your readers
that for some time past representa-
tive English manufacturers have
been prospecting in the states.
Their presence has been reported at
times in the coal and iron regions
seeking suitable localities for estab-
fishing works. The districts which
have especially received their at
tentiOn have been the metal refuse
region west of st. Louis and the
district on the shores of Lake SUI
periOr. Their attention particular
Iy has been directed to the facilities
afforded by the southwest for cotton
manufactures, and it appears to be
the general impression that a great
Lancashire can be founded in such
close proximity to the cotton fields
of the south as Will eliminate, to
large extent, the question of freight,
and deprive Manchester of her
time-hOnored supremacy. These
capitalists consist of groups of man.
ufacturers embracing all the leading
trades, and the predominating idea
is that by the sheer force of cOmbi-
nation they will be able to control
TO great extent the markets of the
south and west. This may seem
almost too vast of comprehension,
but they propose to bring to its
accomplishment resources that will
exceed anything previously known
in the history of commercial en-
terpriSe. For instance, the syndi-
cate propose to transplant bodily
whole colonies of working people,
to found and build towns for their
habitation, work their own mines,
acquire aIcontrolling power in such
existing lines ofrailrOads asare neces-
sary to their purpose, construct new
lines, own their own shipping-in
fact to secure for themselves every
profit from the first profit of pro-
duction TO the sale of the product
The group of financiers which have
allied themselves cOntingently TO
take initIatory steps sin the enter
prise are understood to represent
some of the leading houses in the
middle and north oil England"

THE Memphis Appeal few days
since interviewed Bradstreet's agent
in that city, when that gentleman
gave utterance to the following gol-
den words, which should be pasted
in the hat and read by every bust
ness man and salesman, young and
old, every day. A good name Is bet
ter than riches, and an honest poor
man has better credit where he is
known than rich Scoundrel who
will not pay until compelled by law
to do so. He said: If a man gam
bles, he is likely to lose large sums
in Il single night if he drinks, he is
likely to do foolish action, and if
he is in the habit Oftrequenting low
down places, he is likely to form
connections which cannot but be a
detriment to him. Credit and repu-
tation are almost SYNONYMOUS !;
what affects one has bearing upon
the other. Reputation is delicate
thing, and to be perfect that of a
business man must be above re-
proach." Thus, if a man drinks, is
an habitue of bawdy houses and
CANDLES, he cannot be rated in the
commercial agencies as good and
reliable man not even when the
world knows him as and believes
him to be IA church member. The
commercial agency thus becomes a
great moral agency.

Tariff Policy In Tennessee.
Murfreesboro News.

MuE1EctSDpfO NEWS.
We agree with the GAINESVILLE
Chronicle that "whateVer tariff
plank the National convention may
promulgate" Democratic journals
ought to be ready to Support the
ticket it puts in the field" But we
do not hope "that the convention
called to nominate delegates to the
National convention will not con-
slider the tariff question" We
think, like the Chronicle, that sit
is safe to predict that the National
Democracy will declare in favor of
tariff reform and revision, with a
due regard to the interest of such
industries as need protection"
Thinking that such is likely to be
the result and knowing that such a
result would right in view of the
diversified interests of this great
country, we are anxious for Tenes-
wee to add her might to the strength
of this principle in the National
convention, to the end that the
same may be as nearly as possible
the unanimous verdict of the con-
Vention. So it seems to us that the
State convention ought to be urged
to adopt euch platform as indica-
ted by the Chronicle, one in perfect
accord with the utterance of the
Democratic party as far as the diff
ferent State organizations have ex-
pressed themselves. We shall in
deed rejoice if the State convention
adopt Just such a platform that
with which the Democracy of Ohio
wi
Chronicle would certainly join with
us in our rejoicing. In order to
accomplish this, we think a proper
discussion of the tariff by the press,
and a fair consideration of it by
the State convention will not be out
of order.
However, the spirit of submission
to whatever view the National con-
vention may take of this matter,
shown i'm the editorial of our con-
temporary, from which the above
quotations are taken, is highly COM
mendable. And we take this OPP
pOrtunity to state that whatever
may be said in these columns rel
alive to the tariff question, is to be
taken as said in such spirit. We
believe it is prerequisite to the
success of the Democratic party
that the National convention should
adopt a platform in substantial
continuity to the Ohio, Virginia
and New Jersey State platforms,
and we shall use our humble means
to convince those Democrats, who
differ with us, of the correctness of
our views. But we do not profess
infallibility, nor the power to read
such differing Democrats out of the
party, and certainly no one will
accuse us of a desire to do any such
thing.

CLEARING away the forests brings
drouths, as well as floods. The
Manhattan gives this instance of
how a desert was made of a once fer
tile country:
"Thirty years ago, says the
French journal ReUue DIES E'aur ct
FOretS, the Khanate of Bucharie
was one of the most fertile regions
of Central Asia, well wooded and
watered as terrestrial paradise.
But within the last % years ma
MIA of clearing has seized upon the
inhabitants, and all the great forests
have been cut away, and the little
that remained was ravaged by fire
during a civil war. The consequent
ces were not long in following, and
have transformed this country into
a kind of arid desert, The water
courses are dried up, and the irriga-
ting canals empty. The moving
sands of the desert, being no longer
restrained by barriers of forests, are
every day gaining upon the land,
and will finish by Transforming it
into a desert as desolate as the soli-
tudes that seperate it from Khiva."

Hurried Dinners.
Tnndnn T.anRat

1t is a mistake to eat quickly.
Mastication performed in haste
must be imperfect even with the
best of teeth, and due admiXture
of the salivary secretion with the
food cannot take place. When a
crude mass of inadequateIy crushed
muscular fiber, or undivided solid
material of any description, is
thrown into the stomach, it acts as
a mechanical irritant, and sets up
condition in the mucous membrane
lining that organ which greatly
impedes, if it does not altogether
prevent, the process of digestion.
When the practice of eating quick
ly and filling the stomach with I'M
prepared food is habitual, the di-
gestive organ is rendered incapa-
BILE of performing its proper func-
tons. Either much larger guam
tity of food than would be necessa-
ry under natural conditions is re-
quired, or the system suffers from
lack of nourishment. Those ami
mails which were intended to feed
hurriedly were either gifted with
the power of Illumination or proVi-
ded with gizzards. Man is not so
furnished, and it is fair TO assume
that he was intended to eat slowly.

Talking with an old gentleman
of this county the other day, and
while relating accounts of old times,
he told ansineideat In the life of
Daniel Boone, the famous explorer
Of Kentucky, which probably has
heretofore been unpublished.
When Daniel Boone and his party
were surveying the%s'dark and
bloody groundv they had made two
chops in tree tor a line when they
heard Indians, and as they were on
the war path, the party began to
devise means to escape death.
They had a quart of whiskey along,
and Daniel said: "We must do
something with this whisky, or
the Indians may catch us, get
drunk and kill US.
The last tree that was chopped
had a hollow near a fox, and Dan
lei Boone put the quart of whisky
ln@the hollow. Forty years had
passed, and dispute came up about
that spot, and Daniel told them
they could tell by the quart of
whisky in the tree. The tree was
found, but had grown large and the
hollow had grown up, but old man
Boone said "Cut it down, and
the bottle can be found, and the
dispute will be settled" The
tree was felled and split open, and
the bottle was found, but the Whis-
ky was gone. Had evaporated in
the forty years, it is supposed.

Weighing Silver Dollars.


In the mint at San Francisco
there are fifty women employed at
a salary of $2.75 per day. The
hours are from nine O'Clock in the
morning until four in the afternoon,
with the exception of Saturday,
when work ends at two. Their
business is to weigh the gold and
silver after it has been rolled, an
nealed, cut and washed, and they
are known as adjusters. Each piece
should weigh 4124 grains for sill
yer dollar, to be up to the standard,
a slight discrepancy being allowed
on either side. IF coin is found to
be outside the limitit is returned by
the adjuster; if too light, it is con-
demned and must be remelted ; if
too heavy, it is filed to its proper
weight. -.

copyrIghtJHg of News.
New York World.

Mr.. Henry Watterson's request
that the New York papers will
endorse his efforts TO secure news
'prper copyright will not meet with
an unanimous rejoinder here. In
the first place, the New York pa
pers airs puryeyOrs, not patentees,
of news. Their principal object is
to disseminate il as widely as posi-
BILE, not TO hoard it under statutory
protection. They stand between
the circumstance and the public and
make proclamation. This is quite
a different matter from the creation
of brilliant ideas in literature,
where the maker is the owner and
does not desire others to purvey
what is not theirs. The very idea
involved in copyrighting a news
paper is squarely opposed to the
broad, liberal principles now an
imating journalism. You might as
well try TO patent public opinion or
copyright a panic. The promulga-
ton of news is a diffusion, not
deprivation. The moment it Is
diffused it is every mans, and to
say at that moment that it becomes
proprietary is perhaps worthy of
1egislator--but hardly OF a great
editor.

Whenever you find farmers as
class out of debt and with money in
savings banks you will find di-
versified system of agriculture and
there can be no great diversity of
agriculture where there are no
manufactures. Manufacturing towns
furnish consumers for many prod
ucts of the soil that are unsuitable
and Improbable to send to distant
markets but which are very prOtita-
BILE crops for the farmer to grow if
he has a nearby market. The Gen.
sus statistics prove the truth of this
statement. They show that the av-
erage annual earnings of farmer in
Pennsylvania are three times more
than those of the farmer in Tenes-
see. If this State had a half mill
lion persons at work in mines
and manufactures the value of
every acre of farm land would be
quadruple and our farmers would
grow rich by earning So per annum
where they now earn 81. This
question of developing our mines
and manufactures is really of more
importance to the farmer than to
any other class in the community.
