Rev. Sam Jones is now at work
in Chicago. The Inter-Ocean de-
votes a column to Sam, biOgraphi-
cally, morally, religiously and TO-
rensically. 1t speaks favorably of
him, except it hits him one hard
lick. 1t says, after ne has made a
powerful argument favoring per-
sonal purity:
"There is one point in which Mr..
Jones does not seem to be consist
ent when he advocates personl
purity-Mr. Jones chews tobacco"
Then quotes him as saying:
"Red liquor and Christianity
won't stay in the same hide at the
same time"
This is regarded in this day by
advanced Christians, and even by
many of the world, to be inconsist-
ent, as tobacco and personal purity
cannot dwell together. Temper.
ance men and Christians ought to
think seriously about this.

Wednesday. Feb. 10, 1885.

1t will not be question at the
next election, neither will it be be-
fore the next State Legislature,
whether or not we will have pro-
hibition, license, or free whisky.
That will not come up. The only
practical question is, "Shall the
people of the State have a right to
vote for or against a constitutional
amendment, prohibiting the sale
and use of liquors as a beverage"
This question in the last .Legisla-
ture WIS discussed and passed by
both houses. But before there can
be an expression of the people it
must be passed by the next State
Legislature; and in the passage OF
that proposition it does not deter.
mine anything, except the right Of
the people to vote, which no demo
erat nor no republican should re-
fuse to do, as it is thoroughly in &C.
eordance with the principles of de-
mocracy and republicanism. ANY
man who would deny this privi
Rge to the voters is unworthy the
support of the party to which he be-
longs. The proper way for both o.
the parties is to agree before theil
conventions that it shall be plank
in each party platform, which viii
settle the matter without fight OF
even any party excitement or strife
and would be to the interest of botf
parties, thus preventing the organi
cation of third party. Now, car
the leaders see it in this light? L
they can, their parties will receive
their full strength in the vote fol
their candidates. 1t is quite desir
able that the party papers through
out the state will advocate this pol
icy.

The season is approaching for
business men to begin an open
campaign for the business of the
country. Last year it was thought
by some that advertising would do
no good, and on account of the nom
action of those interested thousands
of dollars, legitimately belonging to
Maryville, went away. 1t is to be
hoped that this non-action will not
be adopted again by the business
men of Maryville and BlOunt Coun-
ty. We again offer them space in
our paper for advertising. We be-
lieve this is due to themselves, to
us and to the interest of the Coun-
ty in building it up, making it a de-
sirable place to invest money in
material Improvements. We de-
sire the best and most intimate re-
lations with all classes of business
men, as we believe we can benefit
them, and they can help us to build
up the wealth and resources of our
town and county. Shall we work
together for each others honest
and honorable interests? What
say the business men, professional
men, mechanics and manufacture
ers? We will call on you.

Congressional.
SENATE.

The Senate committee on cpl
demic diseases held a meeting to-
day. There was a favorable report
from the subcommittee on DIR.
Hollis yellow fever bill. 1t was
discussed by the committee q con.
siderable time, but no action had.
The house committee on com.
merce will hold a session to-
morrow and probably take favora.
BILE action on it. Hollis opponents
are pretty active, however, and
succeeded in working up a pretty
vigorous opposition which will de.
velop itself when the bill gets be.
fore the house. The national board
of health is making its last feeble
fight for self-eXistence by way of
opposition to the bill.
The fact that Morrison and his
friends are making desperate eff
fort at a compromise with the
Randall element of the party,
which was announced in these dis
patches weeks ago, seems to be
dawning on several people here
just now. The Philadelphia Press
to-day sagely remarks: "That an
attempt is being made to bring to-
gether the Morrison and Randall
faction on the tariff question there
seems to be no doubt. The presi.
dent and secretary of the treasury
both expressed the wish that the
tariff measure be one upon which
the entire party can agree. The first
proposition which involved the new
classification has been entirely
abandoned, and quiet canvass has
satisfied the chairman of the ways
and means committee that defeat
is certain with such bill. Con.
WINGED of this, Morrison then had
the choice of two policies-defeat
with the new bill, or possible re-
auctions of duty BY retaining the
present classification ard making
such changes as the Randall ele-

Our people, like all others, made
mistakes in the locations of the old
and new cemeteries. When towns
are located it is often thought that
they are only TO have couple OF
stores, blacksmith shop, a wagon
and repair shop, and a dozen or two
Of families. But after a while new
interests arise, and the town
spreads, and the first graveyard is
found to be in the wrong place, and
. second ground is selected, and it
Is thought to be so far away that
the town will never reach it; but it
is only a few years until it is in the
way of the progress o: the town.
This is now the experience of Ma
ryville, both cid and new grave
yards are in the way and should be
removed at once. An action of the
Court may be necessary to remove
the old one, but the new one has
but few persons buried in it; be-
sides it belongs to a company OF
men, and that could be arranged
BY their consent and the consent of
those who have friends buried
there. There is all around the new
graveyard a good plat Of ground

A stone road to the COves is such
= necessity as ought to commend
itself to all farmers, mechanics and
Business men. If we had the pow
or of inspiration we would inspire
every man with the thought of this
enterprise. 1t would be of vast i'm
pOrtance to each man who owns
land along the line of road, and
would be one of the best feeders to
eur town and railroad line; it
would double the trade of both and
add thousands of dollars every
year to the people who live on the
line of road or near it, as they could
bring in their grain, vegetables,
fruit, lumber, &C., in double or
thrible the quantities they do now.
1t would double the productions OF
the Coves; they are rich in all we
have named, and could be made
doubly so. They stand in their
own light while they remain un-
concerned in this great improve
a.ens to their country. There are
many wealthy men living along
Little River who could work up
this road, which would make the
country along its line bloom like
the rose. We could commence
with, Samuel ROrex, and name any
number of good, enterprising,
wealthy men, who could build up
this magnificent Improvement.
Shall it be done? What say the
people up the line?

All Orthodox Vanc.

The Boston Evening Record vouch.
es for the truth OF the following story:
Some time ago the Pawtucket ortho'
dox church was in need OF some re.
pairs and embellishments, and car
penter was sent qloft to patch up the
steeple and put it in thoroughly good
shape. The reluctance OF the weather
vane to record the changes ofthe wind
had long been proverbial in the town,
and the carpenter climbed clear up to
see il he could find out what was the
matter with it. What was his aston
ishment to discover that screw had
been put through, apparently in re-
cent wears, in such way as to I'M
pinge upon the pivot and prevent the
vane from turning except under very
great pressure.
The carpenter was astonished that
su ch an attempt should be deliberate
" made to cripple the church vane
and impair its usefulness, but he
thought before he removed the screw
he would report the matter ana see
whether by any chance it had been
put there by any authority. so he
appealed to Deacon ". the most
prominent member of the board OF
trustees, and told him the discovery.
Have you any idea how the screw
came there, deaconY' the carpenter
asked in closing his story.
"Yes, have" said the deacon.
"Why, how was it?"
81 ordered it put there myself. We're
an orthodox church here, i want you
to understand, and we don't want
our weather vane to 60 whifiiin round
with every breath no more'n we do. l
ordered that screw put in SOS it
should take an ALFRED breeze to make
go."

quite wrapped up in their own affairs,
and did not allow our visit to disturb
them much. Yet we were the objects
of some curiosity and some distrust ms
well, for these little fellows evidently
did not think it prudent to remain
lounging around on their porches after
we had approached within thirty feet

into his own donnie lie to reappear,

he might lose none OF the sights. 1T

A Few Things TO be Observed in Play
ing Il Game OF Whist.
/. Always look solemn.

l.. Always look solemn.
IT.. Allow no convorsat on within five
hundred feet of the game.
III. If playing alta club, hotel or
any public place. show clearly by your
manner that you expect the other Occur
pants of the room 10 withdraw
w. Judge others by their knowledge
of the game, as no other pastimc re-
uuires so much memory, such close at
tention to established rules, so little or
iginality and absolute silence as whist
V. Never forgive partners error.
vi. Do not allow the fact that the
s3lemnity of your appearance is out OF
all proportion to any amount OF intclll-
gence that can possibly be brought up
on the game to deter you from playing
in the presence of others.
VII. Never forget that many of the
greatest men in history were good
enough in Their own way. but knew
nothing of whist. otherwise you may
fail to realize the Importance OF your
own accomplishments.
VIII. If, during the game. n child
should drop any thing. or raise its voice.
it is best TO shoot before the offense can
be repeated.
TX. Should any ignorant person fail
to realize the almost abnormal combi-
nation of talents required to play even
an ordinary game of whist, teach him
the game nj once.
Y. Always bear in mind that il is -
"scicn tiiic' game. and far ahead oi
both chess and poker, which are mere
" games Of chance. This may be hard
work but1t will be good mental cx-
ercise. life.

Enforcing Prohibition in Iowa.

Sioux CRY, Nov. 18.--ln the saloon
cases in this city, about finished, a
hundred permanent injunctions have
been granted. A large proportion Of
the parties cnjoincd have gone out OF
business since the temporary writs
were issued, and many have left the
city. In twenty three of these cases
writs of abatement have just been
placed in the shcrifl's hands, and ii is
expected that after he has done his
duty in accordance with orders the
reign of open saloons in Sioux City
will be thing of the past. The sa-
loon men are becoming more ana
more inclined TO obey the iujunctions
of the court without any hostile DEM
onstrations.
