who were willing to work and nothing

ever be, as long as we continue our
contracted, fossilized notions of false
economy which have been in the, way
of progress and prosperity in this and

False economy is bad policy, and the

Gov. CLEVELAND has instructed his
clerks to destroy, without showing to
him, all letters asking for appointment
to office. This order will materially
check the flood of applications that
would haye poured in from every Sec
ton of the country. Doubtless Mr..
Cleveland has wisely determined, as
far as possible, to let the office seek the
man, and not the man the office.
Many of the best and most competent
men never ask for Office. The services
Of such are lost to the country, not al
ways because they would not serve,
but because they are unwilling to be
classed as an Office seekers, If Mr..
Cleveland wants good men, he can
nearly always find them in every COM
munity, worthy and needy, outside Of
applicants.

R. R. COMMISSIONERS

Several counties in the State have
not reported their official vote to the
State authorities. 1t is pretty def
nitely ascertained, however, from offs
cial and non>official returns, that the
Republican Railroad Commissioners
are elected by from three to FIVE thou>
sand majority. They pledged them
selves, in case of election, not to exer.
else the functions of their Office or re-
ceive the salary therefor. If they
keep these pledges they will be greater
objects Of interest than the survivors
of the Greedy Expedition, and the trio
will form fine nucleus for ten cent

National Farmers Congress.

Nashville has been alive with prom.
inent agriculturists from all parts of the
Union during the present week. The
National Grange held its annual ses-
sion there this week, closing Wednes-
day night. The National Farmers
Congress assembled there at noon on
Wednesday, and after an address of
welcome from Gov. Bate, an address
was delivered by Col. Robert Beverly,
of Virginia, President of the Congress.
Representatives were present from
only nine States on roll call, and a
resolution was adopted to invite the
representatives of the National Grange
in the city to seats in the body.

THE WORLDS EXPOSITION.

The Worlds Fair at New Orleans
will not open until December, 10Th,
but Manager Burke has given notice to
exhibitors to send in all exhibits at
once, that they may be received and
placed in order before the opening.
Thus far we have seen but little prep
aration upon the part of Warren coun>
ty to be represented in the great
Worlds Exposition. The Commits.
sioners of Warren have shipping tags
and will take pleasure in assisting any
who may desire to make exhibits, in
making shipment. There may be
more who are making preparation to
make exhibits than we are aware of;
We hope so at least. Warren is over
an average as a manufacturing, agri-
cultural and educational county, and
constitutes an important factor in the
great commonwealth of Tennessee. Its
fine water power, timber, coal, mineral
and other advantages for manufactut-
ing, farming and stock growing, are
sufficient inducements to interest CAPT.
talists and farmers to come among us
if these things we're better known,
which can only be done by judicious
advertising. No better time and OPP
portunity has, or perhaps ever will
present itself than at the Worlds Fair
at New Orleans.
A small appropriation of few hun
bred dollars by our county for this pur.
pose would have enabled the county

Interesting Letter from Mr.. Metcalfe

MERIDIAN, Miss, Nov. 10, '84.
To the Standard.
Since last communicating with you
/ have, like most Of the world, made
many promises to myself and other
people only to be broken, yet such is
poor human AUTHORIZATIONS hinder
ing causes often prevent us from do
ing that which we thought we would
do. have not had the pleasure for
six months past of seeing but few
copies of the STANDARD, but those /
have seen have impressed me with
their short, practical, pithy articles
on practical subjects, which tend to
better the condition of man, land, and
beast. Especially have | been i'm
pressed with the articles of Col. Gar
denhire, as to the points on dull
plows, good cultivation, hogs, dogs,
and good cooking. Long essays are
not digested by the masses no more
than greasy cabbage for supper. l
enjoy the 'ColonePs articles on ac-
count of their point and shortness;
they suit a business man, who reads
while running.
For three months past / have been
in whirlwind of excitement about
the election, first in New York, then
Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, and now
the balmy South. While l suppose
it is all right to have rotation in of
fee; get bad men out and put good
men in, yet this frequent stir and
shaking up Of the dry bones tends to
unsettle business, and makes many a
poor farmer think that the bottom is
going to drop out of his farm, to say
nothing of the balance of the world
who have not so sure a foundation.
No doubt the pot needs stirring, but
not quite so often / think would be
better. The people of the South are
wild with joy over the election of a
Democrat once more, and from the
looks of the dusky cloud of employees
around the custom houses and post
Offices in many places, it will be re-
liefindeed, for surely we have enough
competent white men in our country
to fill all our offices. But everybody
to their taste suppose. have been
in nearly a dozen towns and cities
since the election, and the people in
many places appear to be crazy; es-
pecially was this so in New Orleans
on the night of the Sth, when the in
cessant roar of cannon, the beating OF
drums, blowing of horns, the shout
ings and cheers of the surging thou
sands, all tended to makea quiet
locker on ask, "What does all this
mean? ?" And while have taken nc
part in political matters since 1861,
when l voted my glorious State out
of the Union, yet when l have such
surroundings l find that the infection
is contagious, and can't keep from
saying, hurrah for our side! Bro
Lawson Walling or Oliver Young
are ready to say that Bro. Metcalft
is convicted and will soon be convert
ed. For fear some one will not like
this letter because it is too long,
stop. With best wishes,

CLEVELAND'S ADMINISTRA-
TON.

Now that Mr.. Cleveland has been
duly elected to the Presidency by de-
cided majority of the Electoral votes
chosen and given to him from every
section of the country, he will be ex>
pected to be the President of the whole
country, giving equal justice and equal
rights to all. If it is his purpose, as
we believe it is, to give the people an
honest, faithful administration, and
to appoint to office none but honest,
competent, and conservative men 10
aid him in his efforts, we believe be
can, and will do what no sectional
President ever has, or ever would have
done, viz: Restore fraternal feelings
between people of all sections. There
is no question, but the South is as loyal
to the Government as the North, and
for more than twenty years has born
the burden of taxation and oppression,
imposed by sectional prejudice, and a
desire upon the part of the dominant
party to continue in power and in Of,
fee. But in spite of the bitter parti.
san telling of many Republican leaders
of the North, as unaffected by Mr..
Blaine in his recent canvass of Indiana,
and still more recent and remarkable
speech at his home on the evening Of
the 18th inst, fraternal feeling be-
tween the North and South has steadi,
ly increased, until by united effort a
nonsectional President has been chosen
to preside over once more free and
Independent people.
The South will ask Mr.. Cleveland
for no favors that they are not willing
to concede to other sections. All we
ask is to be recognized as true and
loyal citizens of the Government, al
we are, and ever have been, since We
laid down our arms and acknowledged
our defeat in good faith. The sole
South, "ThG Old South" as Mr.. Blaine
calls us, is as true and loyal to thu
Government, and as ready to defend i
against foreign foe as MIR. Blaine
/ Mr.. B. in his remarkable speech o
the 18th says: Speaking now, no
at all as defeated candidate, but sim
ply as loyal and devoted American
think the transfer of the politica
power of the Government to the Scutl
is a great misfortune, for Mr.. Blaine
1t is misfortune, because itintroduce
an element which cannot insure har
mony and prosperity to the people
because it introduces into the rule of
minority"
The solid South does not possess tn
power to control the political Govern
ment. 1t has only 1853 votes, Will
the "LOyap portion of the country
has 24S electoral votes. The South
solid, it is true against Mr.. Blaine an
his party, because of their unwlse pol
cy toward the South, yet they are tru
and loyal to the Government, and wi
continue to be as much so as any othe
: section. No, Mr.. Blaine, it was nc
, the solid South that defeated you.
= was a want of confidence in you as a
+ honest and safe leader, among the PEE
; pie of the loya! States, in your ow
