ference of Health Boards, delegates from

thought all surface wells should be closed,
priyy vaults removed and sewers kept
flushed. Reports were also read from
nearly every important city in the Union,

Shall We Run From Tt?

1t is admitted that the dem
ocratic party found itself in
such attitude upon the tariff ques-
tion in 1880 that it had to avoid it
and was beaten in consequence.
We are now in another dilemma.
The republicans occupy an unqual-
flied protection attitude. Their
platform does not warrant such
position, yet Mr.. Blaine's letter
seals them to it and their record is
unvarying and warrants the as
sumption that. that is their creed.
The democrats find themselves
upon a platform that means inciden-
tai protection, while the organs dis
avow it. What then is the party
creed2 There is no question but
that the party will be credited with
intending to do what it has already
attempted to do, and we will there
fore be forced upon the Morrison
idea. The republicans are pushing
US to that point and party leaders
are dragging US thitherward. We
have not the slightest doubt but
that the Chicago platform fairly ex-
presses the sentiment of large ma
jority of the party when it is inter
preted to mean incidental protec-
tion, and yet democrat is de-
tered from saying so because he
sees that he will be forced into the
free trade craze if he follows his
party. The incidental protection
democrat therefore finds his
mouth muzzled. Shall he speak
out, or shall he avoid the question:
We ran from it once end were de
feated. We do not believe the
country will submit to be brought
under the conditions of the Morri-
son idea. The only hope of the
party therefore is in standing
upon the platform and
a vigorous fight for the
protection of lahorersF wages and
the fostering Of our manufacturing
industries. The platform is un-
upon this point. To
make aught else of it is to strain its
meaning. These things do not
have much effect in Tennessee, per-
haps, where we will vote the ticket
in either event, but we should send
up from Tennessee no uncertain
voice that the people in the doubt
'ul states may know what to expect
f the party comes into power.
The CITIZEN believes the platform
Is right.

on her lips, but agony in her heart, on
household cares intent; the brave boys,
weary with the days toll, but drawing
bright pictures of future comforts,
"when we sell our tobacco" how poor
little sisters chapped feet were to be-
come gorgeous with red shoes; how
grandma was to have new shawl
and mother, dear mOther-everyth thing
she wanted, God bless her. G'But a
knock is heard at the door; the consta-
bic and Moses Farmer enter, the tobacco
is seized and Shylock has got his pound
of flesh, carved not as the mereiful Jew
would have taken his hellish forfeit,
from the breast of man, but from the
wounded and bleeding hearts of babes
and sucklings." The emotions of the
jury now became uncomfortable. and
their tears and sobs were visible and
audible. His Honor, Judge Baxter,
made no efforts to conceal his feelings,
and the great tears chased each other
rapidly down his cheeks and tell un-
needed upon the open volume before
him. But startling climax was to fol-
low. The defendant Farmer had fol-
lowed the speaker with rapt attention
from the beginning. He was a rough
but kind-hearted man in the main and
had himself been schoolmate of MIR.
Marshall. And when the speaker, with
tremendous energy and looking full in
Farmers face, pronounced the words,
But from the wounded and bleeding
hearts of babes and sucklings," Farmer
leaped to his feet and shouted, "Stopl
stop John listen to me-if had dream
ed that was doing all this devilment,
III be damned if wouldn't have chop
ped off my right hand first. Damn the
tobacco--let the boys have it and let the
Jury give judgment against me and
I'll pay all cost" And they did give
judgement accordingly, and he paid all
the cost

Chancellor G. HI. Nixon.

AAEIeHcoouIS Tresss
Major w. j. Sykes in his speech
at the court house last Monday
paid a well merited compliment to
Chancellor G. II. Nixon. He said
that he had been working earnestly
for the interests of Lawrence coun-
ty for more than quarter of cen
tury. After having side by side
with the gallant VIM. B. Allen and
his, noble compatriots stormed the
heights of Montery, and added lus-
ire to the military renown of Ten
nessee, and of his own county of
Lawrence, Judge Nixon had been
constantly at work to get railroad
through Lawrence county. In spite
of all obstacles, he had succeeded
and had done what he believed no
other man could have done. By his
exertions in behalf of the people of
the county, he had erected for him
self monument In the hearts and
affections of the people which would
outlast any monument of stone.
Chancellor Nixon richly deserved
the compliment and he with pleas
ure awarded it to him in the pres
ence of representative men from
every district il the county.
