WHO BUILDS A HOME.

The hurrying host e'er crowds the van
With piaudft and acclaim,
To yield its honor to the man
Vino makes himself a name.
Indeed all honor should be his
That people can bestow:
A good name-fair and sweet 1t Is,
In happiness or woe.
But praise where tits deserved the most
Is grudgingly bestowed,
AS through earth's troubles rush hfe's
host,
with light or heavy load.
The man who highest praise deserves,
Meath Heavens eternal dome,
Is he who ne'er from duty sWerVes,
And makes happy home.
A home! Not merely four strong walls,
To turn the wolves away,
To rest within till grim death calls
Unto brighter day;
But such home as hearts may love,
And live and bloom within,
Rejecting joys from Heaven above,
And never knowing sin.
The man who builds home like this
is greater far than he
Whose wealth would waken sensuous
bliss.
Whose name fills land and sea.
His wealth may fee, his name go down;
BuIhomes with hearts OF love
VIII keep through ages their renown
As echoes from above.
Then hail the man who builds a home
While lingering on the earth:
For when he sees Heavens gilded dome
Twill whisper of his worth.
And he who builds home in which
He nobly lives and dies
Will find its countc part a niche
Awaiting in the skies.

NOTWITHSTANDING the negotia-
tons for peace pending between the
two nations, active preparations for
war are, in progress by both England
and Russia. Both countries are mass
ing. their troops in Afghanistan, and
an open declaration of war looms up
very largely among the probabilities
of the near future. Russia is threat
ening England in one of her most
vital parts, and should an open war
come, England will have to fight it to

telephones to $500 per month, and

SHOULD the present hostile attitude
of England and Russia result in war,
several other powers of Europe are
likely to be drawn into the fracas,
and all of them will be more or less
affected by it. War in Europe will

nerative prices, for every ounce of

WE commend the remarks in our
Washington letter relative to putting
incompetent men in Office to the
thoughtful consideration of every
reader of the STANDARD who eXer-
else the glorious privilege of the
ballot. The remarks apply with as
much force to State, county and mu-
nicipal offices as to National positions.
1t is an evil from which every county
in Tennessee has doubtless suffered
more or less, and every voter in the
land should look to the fitness and
competency of a candidate before
giving the strength Of his ballot to
place him in any position of public
trust. Men who have lost limbs in
defense of their country, or from ac-
cidental causes, should have prefer
ence where they are competent to fill
the positions they seek, but in the
absence of full and perfect compe-
tency and fitness, the country can far
better afford to literally pension its
manned soldiery than to trust the
transaction of public business to in
competent heads and hands.

FROM no other source of industry
will Tennessee reap more substantial
benefits in proportion to the capital
invested than from the creameries
and cheese factories which are being
established at various places in the
State. Not only do these concerns
pay good dividend upon their di-
rect productions, but they stimulate
the raising of cattle, which means
more grass and more fertile lands in
Tennessee.
