They Skulk d from the Issle,

When the ayes and noes were called late last Friday afternoon on the final passage of the registration bin in the Tennessee House oi Representatives, the Republican members bolted, and all but five escaped. After they had skulked out of the Hall, a call of the roll showed that there lacked two of being a quorum present, and the House was, therefore, compelled to adjourn until the next day. Twelve o'clock Saturday being the hour fixed for final adjournment, the Republican members all secret ly left Nashville Friday night, thereby reducing the attendance Saturday below quorum, and ren- dering the passage of the reglstra ton bill, or the transaction of any other business, impossible. This registration bill was designed to prevent repeating, and the impor portation of nonresident voters, and many other species of fraud in elections, and therefore, as might have been expected, the Republi- can members were willing to resort to any tactics, no matter how cow ardly or dishonorable, to defeat 1t. Fair elections are no more desired by the Republicans of Tennessee than they are by the Republicans of any Southern State-Or Cincln- nati. When this same registration bill came mp in the Senate just be- fore the close of the regular session month OF so ago, the Republican Senators bolted, and locking them. selves up in a room to prevent the Sergeant-at.Arms from dragging them back into the Hall, kept the attendance reducsd below quor- nm until the President was com pelled to declare the Senate ad- journed sine die by limitation. Thus by the same cowardly and uncommon method did the Repub- licans prevent the passage of the bill at the regular session and also at the extra session. Possibly that is what they understand to be statesmanship. It will be observ- ed that it closely resembles great many phases of Republican state manship.

Evidently Wants acRac.

The Malvern News very proper ly looks upon the selection of a candidate to succeed Col. Jones in the Lower House of Congress as a serious and important business matter. Under the Caption, "The Man We Want, that jodrnal prints the following pen picture of the man who should be nominated for that position. The writer evident ly meant to portray the character and qualifications of T. c. McRae, and we have not the remotestdoubt that single one of his readers can be found 10 say that he did not succeed most admirably in that undertaking. The picture Is almost as perfect a one as any one of Mr. McRae's most intimate ac- qua;ntances could write:
 We want suitable man nominated and then we want to see every Democrat go to work to elect him. When the nomination is made we shall place the name of the nom- inee at our masthead and work for him on party grounds and do T hat we can honora bly, to secure his election, whether the sue cessful man is our personal preference or not | We would like to see every Democrat take that interest in the matter that the impor- tance of it demands. We don't want any numbskul or stump sucker" but sound Democrat with ability to make himsclf heard in the halls of legislation and who will reflect credit on his constituents and help to run the Government We don't want man who has to be continually punched up to avoid being run over by active, progressive men. We want n wdc-awake man who knows something and can tell t; a man who don't mind work, man with backbone and Nho acts on principle and who does not hesitate and wonder what people will say about il il he does thus and so. We don't want man who will flood the country with printedspecch es that he hired somebody else to write, and which he never delivered in Congress. We don't want man who can be slenced by one slap in the face from member ofan op' posite party; and we don't want man that can talk all day and say nothing, and we don't want man that can't talk at all. We do want man that has made social and po- litIal economy study, and studies and un- dcrstaDds politics as science and no. as a system of button-holing and trickery. Give us this, coupled with honesty, and WIG are content But if the people want such man they must go to work, pick him out, nomina:e him and then elect him, and this will not be accomplished if they lie back on their ears and do nothing. Get up and move. When the township conventions meet let every Democrat be there; send n good delegation to the county convention, and when you get there make ourself heard and do you, work well, and all will be well.

Rev. Dixon C, Williams.

Rev. Dixon C. Williams, the evangelist who will be in Prescott about the last of July to hold a protracted meeting, is said to be a man of far more than ordinary abll' ity. His preaching in Texas some time ago was attended with almost marvellous success. The effects of his sermons upon the communl- ties of Corsicana, Ennis, and other towns in the Lone Star State, are described as being truly wonder ful and always for good. He Is nothing short of a great revivallst' He quickens the zeal of the most active church workers; intuses new life and vigor into the most lukewarm and indifferent of every denomination, and converts the most incorrigible seofors at Chris tianity. Such preachers are essen tial to the cause of religion and morality. They can accomplish a work which no pastor can accom- plish. They not only infuse new interest and warmth into the church members. but they can reach a class of Goddess people whom no pastor ever touch. MT. Williams Is only twenty.eight years old, and Is said to have been wild and disso- lute in his habits before he was converted 10 the cause of Christ. His home is in Lebanon, Tennes' see.

How to Avoid Colds.

An eminent London physician, DR.. Ora

things on the SUBJECT of colds. and which
are III the main accOroant with rational and

caught, 10 make the room s person sits in
much warmer than usual, TO increase the
quantity of hed-clothes, wrap up in flannel
and drink large quantity OF tea, Cruel or

majority OF instances prolong, rather
than lessen, the duration OF the cold.

inoculated persons in warm rooms will make
their smallpox more violent by augmentiDg
