swearing at the fellows who go to
Washington, put up at the best hotels

CAN'T AFFORD TO wABBLE
Lawrence Democrat.

The Democratic party has too much
at stake in the elections of next year
to allow division on minor and past
issues to jeopardize its success. We
see the daily press at the capital tread
ing even at this early date, on dan
gerous ground. The only questions
which it seems to us could or should
hare any tendency to produce division
Ia Democratic ranks have all been
settled either by the vote OF the peo-
pie or decision of the courts. Past
experience having gwen hard earned
knowledge as to the strength OF Re-
publieanisisa in Tennessee we are free
to say that sse cannot afford any "wab-
bling on the gudgeon."

Tennessee. We always speak by the
card, and generally know what we are
talking about. There are more Dem

before, and there is no quarrel or i'll
feeling among the masses of the party
in reference to the past, present and
to-come. Whatever trouble exists is
confined to two or three small factions,

there could not be a doubt as to the

A number OF gentlemen of this vii

of poultry generally meet and COM

the routine business OF the meeting
was over, a stout man, with we'll
known features, said:

A CALL ON THE YOUNG MEN.
Jackson Tribune and Sun.
Young men who are fit to lead in
Tennessee do not care whether man
was an Old Line Wing or an Old Line
Democrat, so he is for the best inter-
ests of the State to-day. They do not
care whether he favored or opposed
secession, whether he was Confederate
>or Union, whether he was Federal or
Rebel, SO that he is to-day true to the
best intercstst OF Tennessee. The
cohesion of mutual principles and
mutual interests must preserve the
Democratic party which Republican
oppression created. Old leaders can
not preserve it by digging up prejudi-
'ces so long dead that they stink.
Younger leaders who point the way
to the future, and the young men
whose hopes lie in the future. of our
country, can alone save the party in
Tennessee, by uniting in the suppress
sion of the marplots who are so busily
sowing the seeds of discord in the eff

1t was given to him as a farewell to-
ken, as he left the. next morning for
his home near Clarksville, At the
close OF the reception he was present
ed with fine stem winding gold
watch fer which the sum of one hun
dred and twenty five dollars had been
paid. 1t WAS given to him as token
of honesty and worth, and more es-
pecially for his fair dealing while he
has been here. 1t was presented to
him by four parties from whom he
had bought large crops OF tabacco at
handsome prices. Mr.. Watson was
highly elated over this handsome
present and extends his thanks for
same in a warm and heartfelt manner.

Not only has the slSy-blue battle
been fought over again, but the ghost
of the railroad commission has been
drawn from its grave with forlorn
hope that it will again materialize. It
is certainly inexplicable why this issue
should be again put forward by any
sane Democrat, when our memories
revert to the narrow escape the party
had from disaster last fall.

NO SECOND TO THE MOTION.
Fayetteville Observer.

The American has very small fol
towing in its effort to drive the "old
line Wings" from the party If its
reading out" plan were adopted the
State would be turned over to the Re
publicans. Even the small majority
of 5000 or 5000 that the "bosses" OF
the American type brought the party
in this State to, from the 5000 of five
years ago, would vanish. But the peo-
pie appreciate the situation and will
not be led to.ruin by a few ambitious
would-be leaders. In this congression-
al district there are thirteen Demo-
cratic newspapers, and of this whole
number only one approves the Amer
leans fool" and rascal" crusade. The
old Wings furnish some of the best
material now composing the Demo-
cratic party in this State. Without
their aid success is impossible. The
Americans attempt to ~kick them
out" will be resisted by every Demo
crat who has no @axe TO grind"

 long enough to examine the won-
 derful public buildings, such as the
 National Observatory, Army Medi-
 cal Museum, Smithsonian Institu-
 ton, Coast Survey, Fish Commis-

 that the people of Arizona could do much to attract intelligent attention toward the territory by giving pub licity to every thing discovered in the way of curiosities, wonders, skeletons, ancient ruins, caves, or anything that may reveal itself, re- lating to the history of the early Indian inhabitants of it's region, This could be done by addressing a brief note to Professor J. W. Pow ell, Director of the Bureau of Eth nology, Washington, D. C., such communications will receive imme- diate attention. They could also call the attention of the Bureau of Ethnology, to discoveries, by com municating with the HERALD which is forwarded to the Bureau office regularly, Many curious things are met with by persons passing to and fro, who do not care to take the 1 trouble to investigate them, note to 1 the HERALD would call attention to l such things and enable those spec ally interested to obtain important | information that might otherwise 1 be lost.
