1t is singular fact that there
should exist in the hearts, minds
and consciences of the people a
sentiment that the larger the
amount of money received for any
given thing relieves it from all
criticism and makes it honorable.
The American Farmer, which re-
ceives its support from clubbing
with political papers, says, "High
license has increased the revenue
in the State of Illinois from 100000
to $4,5OO,OOo, and has cut down the
saloons one.tenth." The editor
thinks this wonderful feat on the
question of raising revenue. 1t is
true it is an enormous sum to col
lect from any one line of business,
and in order that the business be
sustained there must be a cores
ponding increase in the sales made.
TO do this there must be an in
crease in prices or in customers, for
the one-tenth of loss in the number
Of saloons would not add much to
the profits, as the loss comes from
the weaker ones who held but little
of the trade. There is not one OF
the men who favor high license
that will discuss the effects Of the
sale and use Of liquors upon the
men who drink it. They are un-
willing to speak of its effects tinan.
clally, morally, or socially. They
do not care 10 see the ruin it pro-
duces on business, on the home, or
on the citizen; it is the money 1t
draws out and the influence it ex-
erts that controls the mind and
stills the conscience.

The Knoxville Tribune is author
ity for saying that the Republican
Central Committee challenged X.
L. Taylor, Democratic candidate
for Governor, to joint canvass OF
he and his brother ALT, which was
accepted. 1t is not known where
the Joint discussion will be held.

The reason why some candidates
names do not appear in the TIMES
is because they refuse to pay the
announcement fee. We understand
that some men are complaining be-
cause we do not hoist candidates
names and keep them there; it is
because they refuse to pay. We
will publish no candidates name
unless he pays us for it. Our fee is
five dollars for small offices, and
ten for large ones.

"Plug hats" have largely gone out
of style, except, however, few
men who were very careful when
they married, % or 80 years ago,
saved the ones they had for the
wedding occasion, and still wear
them for their Sunday hat and
when they go to town. We honor
those old hats very much, and we
can say, In the language Of great
orator, "Most potent, grave and
reverend seniors, you have come
down to us from q former genera
ton"

Millions to take Cutting out Of
prison in Mexico, but not one cent

and vote for Robert Taylor and he

According to the Democratic
platform the money of the United
States cannot be appropriated to
the benefit of the children of the
United States. Oh, no, that is un-
constitional, but you may use mil
lions for cleaning snags out of Duck
Creek, or other little streams,
which will not benefit anybody
and it is constitutional.

Bob Taylor thus far has refused
to answer whether he is in favor of
Federal aid to the schools of Ten
nessee; says when on the stump
de will answer, but he stands on
the Democratic platform, accord
ing to the Nashville American
that is, in opposition to Federal aid.
But the Nashville Union says, No,
it is fer it. So, there the party is,
astraddle, as are both organs.

Knoxville is to have another
railroad, and 100000 is all they
ask for her part. OF course she is
only asked for 100000 for the two
other roads, and that is only a trife

the Tribune and Chronicle get up
this little sum of 100000?

LYNCHINGs.

Six persons have been hanged in
this State by mobs in the past SIX
months, and Gov. Gray has issued
his proclamation Offering $1,000 OF
the $500 that was placed at his
disposal for the purpose OF ex-
ecuting the civil laws Of the State,
as a reward for the arrest and con-
viction of the lynchers or part OF
them. Good enough, Governor, so
far as 1t goes; now suppose you offer
the remaining $500 as a reward 10
Courts and juries who will enforce
the laws against red-handed muir
derers without delay and not re-
lease them on mere technicalitles.
1t will stop the lynchings.-Win-
chester (Ind) Journal.
That is just the way the TINES
has felt about these hangings. 1t
might be we'll to hang a few judges
and juries, just to let the balance
know that they must execute the
law righteously and justly to all
criminals; then there will be no
more lynchings.

Messrs. Norwood, Conally & Co.,
of Chattanooga, took the census of
that city in June, when their re-
port shows the population to have
been 29,7Ol. This made the people
quite restless, and to make the
same come to time they have
watched the hotel arrivals and the
births and find the same sufficient
to count 10000. This is joyful news
to that city, but it's hard on Knox
vile, that only has 10000. If we
had the arrangement of it we
would count the arrivals on the
trains until we had $4,000; then we
would spike" that. 81

The Ohio Republicans nominated
a State ticket on the 25th ult, and
adopted a good, true platform.
They endorsed the tariff for reve-

party in favor of labor and opposed
to anarchism; endorse the Dow law
for the taxing of liquors, and. in
favor of home rule for Ireland, and
pensions for Union soldiers. The
platform isall good except the en-
dOrsement of the Dow liquor law,

Candidates nowadays stick SO
tight that they refuse to get out of
of the way. At Indianapolis there
was a Democratic fight between
the present Congressman Bynum
and his competitor; so there were
two conventions, both nominated.
The Congressional Committee de-
clared neither of them nominated,
so there will be a third man put
into the field. At Alexandria, Vir-
giania, 1000 ballots were taken for
a Congressman but did not succeed,
and the convention adjourned
without day. What love, not for
party but for Congress.

A Cutting ARRAY.


The Columbia Register of Saturday
gives the following account Of cutting
affray, which appears to have been
most unjustifable and outrageous crime:
"a very unfortunate difficulty occurred
at the cotton warehouse of Miller Bros.
near the Union Depot, yesterday after
noon which came near proving serious to
Que of the parties. 1t seems that Mr..
Little, whose father (Dr. Little) is the
book-keeper of the establishment, with
some other young man was annoying Mr..
Wilton Lee, the cotton weigher, by
jumping on and off the scales when he
was engaged in weighing cotton and that
he told them to desist. Young Little
got on the scales and told Lee if he
wanted him off he must put him off.
Lee pushed him off, but as the relations
of the parties were perfectly friendly up
to that moment, Lee turned off to go into
the Office with no feeling OF anger, as he
avers and suspecting none on the part of
Little, when the latter suddenly attacked
him with knife, inflicting several severe
wounds upon him. The knife was driven
into Lees left shoulder just above the
breast, and another cut was made just
over the heart and was prevented from
penetrating by striking the ribs, and an
other wound was made in the back. The
interference Of several young men at this
stage prevented young Little from doing
further damage. Mr.. Lee went in a hack
to DR.. Taylor's office but he was out. when
he was carried to Messsrs. Millers' on
Marion street, where DR.. Taylor subse-
quently attended to his wounds. The
wounds are painful and serious, but not
necessarily dangerous. Mr.. Little had
not been arrested up to late hour last
night"
Mr.. Lees many friends in Anderson
regret to hear of his injuries, but hope
that he will speedily and completely re-
cover from the effects of his wounds.
