eminent, 1t will have to seek COM
pany for its ideas with the unre-
constructed Bob Toombs of Geor-
gia. We don't know of any one
else who still holds to such theo-
~. There are many people in this
particular section who once claimed
that the States were the superior
powers and only delegated
to the Federal Government such
authority as it was allowed
to exercise. There s0ere many who
entertained such opinions, but all
such ideas oozed out at Appomat-
tox, and like the spray on the
fountain, they have gone and for
ever. Time spent in repining over
their destruction is time wasted.
But we still cling to the rights clear
ly delegated to the States under the
Constitution and the CHRONICLE
will always oppose the centralizing
tendency of the Republican party
that would abolish them. Senator
Harris Ito whom the above alludes)
we believe, is so fully imbued with
the ideas of the past, when he was
very active factor in Southern pol
itics, that he is inclined to give a
tinge OF their hue to matters that
come under his consideration now.
The Blair Educational billabridg-

South from the National Govern
ment. The incubus of illiteracy
that was thrown on us by the war
mnst be raised before we can
prosper, and the South is not able
of herself to raise it. IL is an evil
dence of unwise craftsmanship that
there should be any surplus in the
National treasury, but since such a
surplus exists, there is no fairer way
of returning portion Of it to the
people than in the manner proposed
in this bill.

The Republicans of East Tennes-
see will be glad TO prove, by solid
vote, that they are ready to tram
pie over old prejudices, and inaugu-
rate a day of peace. Long ago
they cast aside all feelings of re-
sentiment toward those of their OPP
ponents who stood where Frank
Reid did, In the ranks to be shot at.
When a brave Confederate l17iCGte,
who followed his leaders, suffered
and endured, is put forward for
honors, the Union soldier can read
lily feel strong sympathy for him.
But they do object, and will
object, to the election of Confeder-
ate Generals. They forgive the
men who were falsely led, but they
object to the exclusive hOnOrs be-
slowed upon those who were the
false leaders.-C Chattanooga Com

Softly, brother softly. Didn't
your party once support General
George B. Nancy, of confederate
fame for Governor of Tennessee?

office, didn't a Republican presi-

Surely our Republican contempo-

THE Democrat in discussing the
educational bill goes out of its way
to say that the CHRONICLE "Oppos-
ed the consideration of the tariff by
the present Congress-" If the
Democrat can show us what good
the tariff agitation by the present
congress has done, or is likely to
do, the country or the Democratic
party, we will repent having oppos-
ed it and confess our error. The
CHRONICLE is, and always has been,
for tariff reduction, but we didn't
see the use in splitting the party by
raising the tariff issue on the eve
of a presidential election, when
there was no possible chance to
accomplish any reduction. We
favored the abolition OF the tobacco
tax, and that could have been done
by the present congress if all the
Democrats had favored it. Such
a measure would have curtailed the
surplus that will go on accumula-
ting if nothing is done to reduce
taxation.

A Razor Scrape.

We learn that a negro man
named George Henderson, who has
been in the employ of Mr.. w. S.
Adams, living at 'Pinchem," Todd
county, KY, made deadly assault
on a son of Mr.. Adams with a ra-
zor Tuesday night last, cutting him
dangerously, if not fatally.
From what we can learn of the
affair, the facts, in substance, are as
follows Charles Adams, the young
man assaulted, had some rough
words, and perhaps blows, with the
negro during the day over some
work they were engaged in, but the
negro seemed to get in a good hui
NOR, and Adams soon forgot the
matter. The negro went into Mr..
Adams store that night and called
for a drink. While Chas. Adams
was waiting on him, and had his
back turned, the negro caught Ad-
ans by the collar, and with razor
cut his throat from ear to ear, and
also cutting several gashes in his
breast and side. VIM. Adams, a
younger brother OF Charities, hear
ing the noise, ran in, when Hender-
son drew pistol and fired at him
four times, none of them taking eff
feet.
1t is said that Henderson is sub
ject to "crazy SPELLS" and some
time ago killed another negro and
was cleared on the plea of insanity.
At last accounts he had not been
captured. There is feeling of the
deepest Indignation over the affair,
and if caught, there rs a strong prob
ability that he will stretch rope.
If the negroo was really OF I'M
sound mind, after his previous
case he should have been
taken charge of and put where he
could do no damage, and not turned
loose on country, free to commit
such fiendiSh work as that of Tues
day night. But 1t is a noticeable |
fact, that a great many atrocious
crimes are committed, without any
reasonable grounds, except pure,
malicious wantonness, and the de-
sire for murder, and the offender
goes free, cloaked with the puny |
maptle of insanity.

THE PAPERS OF THE SIXTH DISTRICT.

We asserted in recent issue OF
the CHRONICLE that all the papers
published in the 9th congressional
district stood on the Ohio tariff
plank except two-the Nashville
World and the GAINESVILLE Demo
ocrat. The latter calls on us to give
the names of those papers, and as
we are always willing to oblige our
contemporary with any Information
in which it stands in need, we has
ten to comply with its request.
The papers are The Nashville
American, the Nashville Banner,
the Springfield Record, The Ash
land City Reporter, the GAINESVILLE
CHRONICLE, the GAINESVILLE Tobac-
CO Leaf, the Waverly Times-Jour-
nal and the Dover Courier. We
are positive as TO the politics of all
these papers except the one last
mentioned. If we have misrepre-
sented any of them we will be glad
to Tnake the correction.
The Democrat further said that
this fact didn't effect it any way,
and added something in its usual
strain about "Sky-blues and Bate
Democrats" We didn't expect it
70 r,oaGo opu diHoronoa with Won
dear neighbor. The CHRONICLE
would stand on the Ohio plank if
every other paper in the State was
"agin it," and we are willing to
credit you with a like steadfastness
of principle. 1t is the fashion now
to count noses on political matters,
and the CHRONICLE was simply
indulging in a little play of that
kind. We didn't urge the state
nent for an argumentative effect.

1t was boss Hadden's prompt dis

convinced us OF his executive ablli-

circumstance that influenced the

SETTLED.
THE COUNTY c9MMISsI,NERs
RESOLVE THAT NO PLACE
HAVING RECEIVED A
MAJORITY voTE,
The County Seat Remains at Clifton,
According to Law.

The county seat question coming up
before the Board of County Commits
sioners of Sully county at the meeting
of Tuesday, last, in accordance with the
certified returns of the County Can
vassIng Board and the Statute of the
Territory governing the same, the fol-
lowing resolution was passed:
RESOLVED, That inasmuch as at the
last general election, the same being
the first general election after the TEN.
porary location of the county seat of
Sully county at Clifton, no place re-
ceived a majority of all the votes cast
as the place where the county seat of
Sully county should be located, Clifton
shall remain the county scat of Sully
county until the same be changed as
provided by law
To all who have taken pains to in
form themselves in regard to the mat
ter, it will he plainly seen that this
was the only conclusion to be reached,
and must he final and conclusive. We
have tried to treat this question fair
and honorahly--as as well as our part IN
the political contest-and the position
we have taken from the first was based
upon the las governing the same, and
those who were advocating Onda's in
tcrest knew the law before election and
have placed themselves on record in
public print. Had the county seat
went against us we should have been
the first to acIuiesce to the will of the
people, but when the Norfolk Spy asks,
. Is the will of a majority of the voters
OF Sully county to be defeated" we,
too, say mo- but from different
standpoint. When we can be con-
vinced that 504 is a majority of l,0i2
then we will change our views. When
the Sny advocates tar and feathers it
only shows the weakness and despera-
ton OF it's cause, and will call down
upon itself the condemnation of the
fair and honorably disposed citizens OF
the county. 1t is also a little job
which it would probably do we'll to
" let out" The over-zealous all around
have, perhaps, lain themselves liable to
censure from the stand point taken by
Others, but we hope to see whatever of
bitterness there may have been engen-
dered, forgotten, and a united effort
made for the upbuilding of the whole
county. Had the contest not been so
close the feeling would have been dif.
terent. We all now see where we miss
ed it by not getting out a few more
voters, as we can name at least twenty
five duly qualified who failed to vote
at all, but we didn't and should let the
battle end
