THE CITIZENS article last week
showing how Birmingham depends
upon Pulaski for the greater part
of the truck she consumes and how
the trade might be enlarged until
Giles county farms become a sup
ply patch for the booming, city at
tracted attention down there. We
are assured that Birmingham is
ready and anxious to buy every
thing we will sell her that a big
hungry population can consume
and at coed prices. THE CITIZEN
labored to show how the profit to
our farmers might be greatly en-
HANGED. 1t would be fit subject
for the farmers association next
Saturday. five will make Pulaski
a central supply point so that truck
may be shipped in bulk and not by
dribs, large saving of freights is
made, and by massing the stuff it
gives Birmingham dealers assur-
ance that they can get anything
they want here and they do not
have to run from station to station
and ship in dribs. We are as
sured that this plan exactly suits
Birmingham. She is anxious to
buy largely OF US. Pulaski needs q
board of trade to take this matter
in hand and consummate it.

The CITIZEN, as far as we have
seen, is the only Thursday morning
weekly paper in Tennessee that
gave a correct official table of the
vote of its county. Ordinary coun-
try papers are always some four
days behind The CITIZEN has won
the enviable reputation of being the
widest awake weekly paper In the
state. Some of our esteemed con-
temporaries brag and blow and
below nightly, but they are al
ways nearly a week behind. The
CITIZEN does not make sudden spurts
of enterprise-it stays the same
yesterday, to-day and forever-al-
ways the same old reliable county
paper, here nearly half century
and here to stay, 1t gave the very
latest news up to dark of Wednes-
day by special telegram from all
over the country. We call atten=
tion to these things to show tho
difference between silly Dragging
and actual facts. We have been
doing this way % years-we are 60
ing to keep at it. We are here to
stay.

Senator Harris presided over an
informal sobranje behind the door
at the democratic headquarters last
week in Nashville. A legislative
caucus was the subject before the
electors. Seeing that there never
was a U. S. senator nominated in
caucus by the democrats of Ten
nessee, we fail to see the necessity
of the gag practice now. We are
for an open free fight for the place
by as many honorable democrats as
may choose to shy their booms into
the ring. Does that great office
with its emoluments, honors, hered-
itaments and attachments belong to
few men to dispense? Let's have
no gagging. Legislators go there
sworn to do their duty and every
man ought to be free to exercise
his own judgment of what his oath
requires of him. Don't force him
to submit to other men doing his
thinking for him. If there was any
extra danger it might be permissa-
bic for democrats to agree to act to
gether at the critical juncture to
defeat the enemy, but to go deliber-
ately to work to stifie individual
opinion and preferences, when there
is no danger, in the face of invaria-
BILE precedent, is unnecessary and
wrong. There is but one solution
of the effort now repeated in regu-
lar periodicity: a few men think
they know better what the people
want than the people themselves; a
few men seek to forestall the legis-
lature and make the machine do
the work. We want to see an open,
free, fair fight, and this effort is &c
prevent a fair contest.

Col. A. S. Colyar has immortal
Iz"d himself again without making
that end the object of his effort.
This is about the fourth time that
he has instituted and accomplished
a daring reform. OF course he
makes enemies. He ia the bold
est man in public life on the con-
tinent to-day land he is as true as
steel. He has invited criticism by
keeping up with the times. They
call it fickleness and make a stand
ing Joke of his changeableness.
That very fact is his central, cardi-
nal virtue. He dares to dispute
himself when he concludes that he
is wrong or that times justify diff
ferent course. That is the exact
rule that trucking politicians never
adopt and they have trained the
people to distrust the man who has
an opinion not of toadying nature.
Col. Colyar's daring independence
of thought commends him above
all his his other great attributes.
He has stood on four several occa-
sions like a giant in defense of right
and justice and pure government
and he has been cursed instead of
blessed for the great work he did.
They say he did this last work to
be elected senator. 1t Is not true.
Has he been a candidate for sena-
tor ever since Brownlow times? If
that was his object, however, what
a magnificent exhibit he has made
of his eminent fitness for the place.
He would rank with the greatest
men of the age of great men.

Here is a little testimony that
free traders will do well to read
and consider. It is from a staunch
organ of the republican party-the
National Republican of Washing
ton-and shows what that party IS
calculating on to win future cleo
tions.
The worst thing for the republi-
can party that happened in the
forty eigth congress was the defec-
tion of forty=odd democrats by
which the passage of the Morrison
bill through the house was pre-
vented. The most unfortunate
thing for the republican party that
has happened thus far in the forty
ninth congress was a similar defec-
tion preventing the passage of an
other Morrison bill through the
house. But for the former, the
democrats could not have carried
the presidential election of 'S4 even
with the crime-staiDed vote of the
crime solidified south. But for the
latter there would be no chance for
a democratic majority in the next
house. Randall and his followers
have kept the democracy from MAX
ing the free trade issue in such q
way as to permanently retire that
party. Are republicans to be CRATE
full for this?

what True Merit WIN Do.

The unprecedented sale of Boschee's
German Syrup within a few years, has as
tontshed the world. 1t is without doubt
the safest and best remedy ever discov-
cred Tor the speedy and effectual cure or
Coughs, colds and the severest Lung
troubles. 1t acts on an entirely different
principle from the usual prescription
given by physicians, as it does not dry
up cough and leave the disease still
in the system, but on the contrary re-
moves the CAUSE of the trouble, heals
the parts affected and leaves then in a
purely healthy condition. a bottle
kept in the house for use when the dis
eases make their appearance, will save
doctors bills and long spell of seri-
Gus illness. A trial will convince you
of these facts. 1t is positively sold by
all druggists and general dealers in the
land. Price, rs cts, large bottles.

ed with a pint bottle of liquor
which he says he hid at the foot Of
a large poplar tree during the war.
He was a confederate soldier under
Hood and it being against the rules
to carry liquor through the picket
lines, he hid his bottle at the root
of a tree, pulling the turf and a
rock over it. The tree, which stood
on the Granny White pike near
Nashville, had been sawed down,
but Martin found the stump and
discovered the bottle as stated, this
being the first opportunity to visit
