{ lass Legislation Leads to Certain Dis
aSter

No one other than a demagogue
would urge any class to organize as
such to control this State. It would
not be right for any one class to con-
troll the State, and any class which
attempts it will only bring disaster
on itself ard discord to the State.
Now, We do not mean to be misun-
dcrStood on this question. We say
that man is not entitled to any
more influence in our government
who is engaged in agriculture than
another man who is engaged in me-
chanics. Every man is free and
equal before our laws, and it is an
equality Of men, not Of avOcations.
Now, in Legislation VIC believe that
the various interests in the State
should be cared for in proportion to
their Importance and their needs,
and we do not hesitate to say that in
this State our agricultural interests
arc the most important, and should
he more particularly cared for than
it las been in some respects, but the
agriculturai interests cannot be built
up by tearing down any other inter
est in the State, and the men WHO
would attempt to antagonizc one
class against al! other classes would
lcaJ that class to certain DISASTER

GeI.rmany on Silver.

The New York Suns London special says: The interested attempts which have been made to prevent the put lication of the true version of the Prusgian minister of finances speech on the. silver question continue to excite indignation in the best finan- cial circles. The official report shows that Herr Scholz disclaims for his government devotion to the gold standard, and promised jealous con sideration of the movement for re- storing silver. The portance of this speech consists in the public avowal that Germany no longer remains in- different. Bismarck is listening to the land and labor interusts-:llso 10 the demand of bi meta!lism, in Otto Von Arendt's words, "Either with or without England" This is not all. l
 
 have high authority for saying that the deplorable condition of exchange between the gold of England and the silver standard of India has engaged the attention Of the British govern ment, and that steps are actually un- der consideration in the direction of relieving the mischief done in de- pressing silver through British adher- ence to the gold standard. Of thisr official assurance may be shortly ex- pected. Meanwhile, the Gold and Silver League are energ=tic.-Ex.

Why Mining Requires Capital

People of the East have but q faint idea in regard to mining as Il legiti- mate business. They cannot under stand if q man has good piece of property why he should wish to sell it, their idea being that a good prop erty can be made 10 pay from the very start. There is not more erroneous iIea extant in regard to mining than the one that a good property must of necessity from the very start furnish sufficient ore or to not only pay expenses, but also to re- turn dividends to the lucky owners.
 Mining is as legitimate business as.any in which capital can engage, and it can perhaps be best illustrated as to what is necessary to carry 1t on successfully by comparing it with any business engaged in in the East, and with which people are familiar. Take, for instance, farming, than which there is not a more certain business in the world. Suppose a farmer to not only own his own farm, but that it has not on it all the necessary inn provemenls ill the way of buildings, fences, etc. At the time he has ex- hausted his money and credit, and of what use is the farm to him, or in what manner can it be made to pay without stock, without farm machi- nery, without seed and all the numer- ous other things absolutely necessary to carry on farming successfully. So it is with mining. Take good prop erty, which from the development already done is known to contain good mineral, what is necessary to put that property upon a paying basis? Build ings must be erected for the accom- mediation of employees, tools and sup plies of various kinds must be pur- chased. Tunnels must be driven, shafts sunk and drifts opened up in order that the ore may be taken down. All this requires capital or credit, just as any other business, and what farm would be to man With out stock, seed, money or credit with which to hire help, q mine IS to the poor owner without means to put il on paying basis.
 As this great industry of minius grows older people will learn that it il a legitimate business and safe. l
 plainly engaged in with an under
 standing of its true requirements i will prove successful-Register- Call

lished a business here; should they compel us to leave what would be- come of our property? Would the city pay us our prices? No! Then how can they compel us to leave? They say they can get along without us, that they can do their own wash ing. cooking, etc. You take the aver age white woman of to-day, and she will not wash under any circum stances, she is too high-toned, and it would humiliate her sense of pride.

TOMBSTONE

THE DAILY TOMBSTONE has watched and waited for some confirmation of the charges made by the Phenix Herald against U. s. Marshal Meade, but its waiting has been in vain. We have known MT. Meade fer number of years, and we feel confident that the charges can never be sustained. If the Herald is lending it's Republi- can columns to ex Marshal Evans, to satisfy that individuals spleen because he could not continue in office and practice his nefarous schemes, even though he be a Democrat, we think that Bro MOreford had better go into the agricultural business in the beau tiful valley wherein he is located.

caIdwell's School Bill.

We alluded few days ago in the
columns OF the CHRONICLE to bill
introduced by our immediate repre-
sentative in Congress, Hon. Andrew j.
Caldwell, as substitute for the Blair
educational bill The following extract
from the Nashville Union, giving an
interview with him, will throw some
light on the nature OF the measure:
Congressman Caldwell of Tennessee
has a new plan OF his own in reference
to the proposed system OF national APP
preparation for the aid of public schools.
He has introduced bill by which he
proposes that the proceeds of the sale
of public land shall be devoted to school
purposes, distributing the same accord
ing to the illiteracy noted in the various
sections by the last census. 81 think, "
he said to your correspondent, that
this plan removes many OF the objec-
tons which have been urged against
the Blair bill and other measures OF
this character. There were, you know,
serious doubts in the minds of many
statesmen about the constitutionality
OF that plan of making appropriations
outright for school purposes. There is
no doubt, however, but what we have
the right TO appropriate the proceeds OF
the sales OF our public lands to any
national object which we may desire,
and think by this plan we shall be
able to remove the doubts which have
troubled so many people in regard to
the other measures"
"Would this proposed plan give as
large a sum us that called for in the
Blair bill 2"
eyes, larger, I think, for it would
last longer The sale of the public
lands are going to continue many years,
for there is an immense area yet
unsold. +"
''Do you think a measure of this kind
likely to pass the present congress ?"
81 see no good reason to doubt it,
The sentiment was very strong in favor
of the Blair bill, which passed the
senate last congress, and | think it
will be still stronger in behalf of this
one -
