A Strange Timepiece.

Sling a quarter at the end of a piece
of thread by means of a loop. Then,
resting your elbow on table. hold the
other end of the thread steadily be-
tween your fOre-6nger and thumb,
observing to let it pass across the ball
of the thumb, and thus suspend the
quarter into an empty glass. When
the quarter has recovered its equilib-
rum it will for a moment be station,
airy; it will then of its own accord
aud without the least agency from the
person holding it assume the action of
a pendulum, vibrating from side to
side of the glass, and after few sea.

the time of day; for instance, if the
time be 5 minutes past 6, it will
strike 8; if 30 minutes past 6, it
will strike Z, and so on any other
heur. The thread should lie over the
pulse of the thumb, which may in
some measure account for the viora.

stating our views last week regarding
primary elections. We do not fully

idea agrees with the opinions express.
ed by the Exchange years ago. We
faver' a primary election in each
civl district for all political Offices.
Let two or three democrats hold the
election; ALLOW no one tn vote who did
not vote the democratic ticket at the
last general election; let delegates 90
to the county convention with these
returns certified, allowing each candi.
date full credit for the votes received.
If any candidate has majority of
the votes cast in the county, let him
be declared the nominee. If no one
has a, majority, let the delegates from
the districts ballot in convention and
decide who shall have the nomination,
allowing each district one vote for
each hundred votes or fraction above
fifty cast in the primary election. For
congressional, judicial or other con-
ventiOns where more than one county
is to be represented, let the same priS
mary steps be taken up to the county
conventions; then let the county con-
vention select delegates to the gener-
al convention, instructing them to
vote for the man who has received a
majority of the votes at the primaries;
let these delegates be selected from

vote, thus giving all parts of the coun.

do not bind them with bonds of iron
never to cast vote for their second
choice. Let all be done for the choice
of the county that honorable men can

fully and support the man who has
received the next highest number of
votes in our primary elections. The
will of a majority of the voters should
be Obeyed if possible; when that can.
not be done, let US support the man
who ranks second in popularity, thus
giving the minority chance to be
represented. We believe this is fair,
and we hope no candidate wants any
thing else.

The Fertilizer Law.
To the Nashville Union:

To the Nashville Union:
In behalf of the farmers of the
state please give the following circu-
lation through your columns
The season for the sale of fertilizers
for the spring crops is now at hand,
and in order that farmers and dealers
may be protected in the handling of
various brands of fertilizers their at
tentiOn is called to section l of the act
passed May 8, 1888, regulating the
sale of fertilizers, for the protection of
the farmers of the state, which is as
follows:
Section 1. Be it enacted by the
general assembly of the state of Ten
nessee, that all commercial fertilizers
sold or offered for sale in this state
shall by stamp, or otherwise distinct>
ly set forth in each package or parcel
the chemical analysis of such fertiliz>
ers, the name of the manufacturer,
also the place and date of manufac>
ture, and Furthermore, each of said
packages or parcels shall be freely
submitted to inspection, as herein
provided, and shall bear a certificate
of inspection Cor tag) furnished by the
commissioner of agriculture and show.
ing authority from the state to sell
such fertilizers: Provided, that fertil>
izers sold for less than $40 per ten
shall not be subject to the provisions
of the act.
Also section H., which says;
Section IL. Be it further enacted,
that any person or persons violating
any of the provisions of this act shall
be guilty of misdemeanor, and on
conviction shall be fined not less than
500 nor more than $500 for each Of
Tense, and the proceeds of said fine be
turned over to the station above men,
toned.
Therefore farmers should be care
full to see that the proper tags are put
on all packages before they buy them,
and retail dealers should see that the
goods they handle are properly tagged
iu order to protect themselves against
the penalty of the above law, as the
law will be strictly enforced wherever
found in violation. A copy of the
act in full will be sent to any person
on application.
Papers throughout the state are re-
specially asked to copy the above.
Respectfully,
H. KERcHEvAL,
State Inspector of Fertilizers.

A Chattanooe "a special to the Nash.
vile Union says the recent sales of
real estate there "have caused the
tax assessors to prick up their ears
aud very remarkable state of affairs
now develops. 1t transpires that the
wealthy owners Of large bodies of real
estate in the city have been gradually
hammering down their taxes until it
is now less than one-tenth its real
value, and the small holders of real
estate have borne all the burdens.
One lot that sold for $4,000 is as.
sessed at $1,000; another, which sold
for S24, 900. at $4,000; another which
sold for $4,000, at 81, 200; and others
in like ratio. These vacant proper
ties are held principally by non -resi>
DENTS" The same complaint may be
made in many towns and counties of
the state, and will be until the ASSESS
ment law is amended and perfected.
Much property in this county is as
sessed at less than one-third its value,
and it almost invariably belongs to
men who are amply able to pay the
taxes.

A Washington special says Senator
jackson last Monday made one of the
most important speeches delivered
during the present discussion in the
senate. There had been a good deal
of interest in what he should say on
this subject, and his remarks were lis.
tened to with great care by both sides.
The general verdict is that he downed
Senator Edmunds on the strongest
features in his case. The important
points brought out by Senator Jack
sons argument, which is reported by
Associated Press dispatches, were en-.
tirely new, not having been touched
by any other senator in the many ar
guments presented thus far. He was
roundlY applauded by his fellow sena.
tors and warmly congratulated at the
close. JacksOn's speech will stand as
probably the strongest, clearest aud
most convincing made on the demo.
cratic side during the entire debate.

Our impression is the republicans
in the q. S. Senate are very sorry
that they ever attacked the President
in the Dustin matter, and wish now
that they had merely protested when
the papers were refused them, and
confirmed the appointment. Ed
munds has lost character in his own
party, and his chances for the presi
dental nomination are more nebu.
lous than ever.
