The pr ceedings Of the organiza~
ton of the Middleton. Bolivar,
Brownsville q Hickman rallroa i
as published in the States-Democrat
to-day will he gratifying intelligence
to all who have an interest in the
prosperity Of Brownsville and the
surrounding country. The scheme
Is no idle myth, no baseless taLric
of dream, but the project of praeti-
cal business men who have given
the subject thorough study and in
vestigation. From a careful study
OF the map, and the topography of
the country, and other numerous
advantages, it can easily be seen
that the Middleton, Bolivar, Browns
vile and Hickman road will offer
by far the best route for the North
ern extention of the Gulf and Ship
Island railroad. That road offers a
route through the chOicest agricul-
tural region and the best timbered
section IN the South, passing through
pOpulous aud prosperous country
which only needs development to
make it the wealthlest portion of
the State The lands are rich. the
| people industrious, the country
prosperous and road traversing it
would be paying enterprise. The
/ Topography Of the country between
! Middleton and Brownsville is such
that railroad building would meet
/ few difficulties and be a comparative
| ly cheap undertaking. From
! Brownsville on north, we have a
road already graded about twenty
five miles, at cost of two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars, leaving
the balance of the route north easily
to be accomplished through a section
noted for the marvellous products
Of the soil. An experienced engi~
neer, with a full force, is now max
ing a careful survey Of the route be-
tween Middleton and Brownsville,
and those who understand the
situation believe his report, estimates
ETC.. viii be SO favorable that il
will be adopted as the best Northern
Eoutlet for the Cult & Ship Island
! IGdilTOlu. DuC Tue llOSL iii POI liJll
| duty ut present IS for our people to
aid in the completion of the survey
to use all efforts and resources il
their power to see that the advan-
tages Of this route as fully shown
and unite in Il common, earnest CO.
operation to secure the road. A few
citizens, hoWsoever active and vIgi
liant, can DO but little unless sus
tanned and backed by the uritec
voice Of the community Let every
tizen become interested, study thO
great public good to grow out o
such an enterprise, and work anC
talk and la0or for the new road
An active spirit of pubic enterprise
can accomplish our object; nothing
else can. -States-DemOcrat.

During the past few days there
has been much talk to the effect that
a call will be made on Gen. j. j.
Dupuy to stand for the Democratic
nomination fOrjudge of the criminal
court. AS Gen. Dupuy is recog-
nized as one of the ablest criminal
lawyers in West Tennessee, and is a
gentleman in the fullest sense Of the
term, he would undoubtedly add
great strength to the ticket. How
ever, there are others who are al
ready announced as candidates fol
the position and who are emineltly
fitted, Sc there will be no trouble il
finding a good man for the place
Avalanche.
Democrats will not scratch thei,
judicial ticket, but will vote it soil,
when the time comes. They are
all for harmony. The party Is unit
cd now and the cry of the RepubII
cans about the dissatisfaction wit
the nomination of Snodgrass will no
amount to anything. They want
split and will do all they dan to &c
one up, but they are doomed to dii
appointment. Tennessee VIII rel

DAVID DAVIS.

Judge David DAVIS died at his
home in Bloomington, H., on last
Saturday morningin the 72nd year
of his age: The cause of his death
was Bright's dieease of the kidneys,
aggragate ed by weakened condi-
ton of bis system produced by a
carbuncle from which he has been
suffering for some months. His
death though not unexpected, was
received with profound sOrro " every
where, but more especially at Bloom
ington, where he had lived since
1886, and where he was greatly
beloved. He was a member of the
Illinois Legislature in 1874 and in
1916 was a member of the constI-
tutionaI convention of that state.
Shortly after that he was elected
Judge of the 8th judicial circuit,
which position he continued to fill,
until 1867, when ne was appointed
an associate justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States by
President Lincoln. In 1872 he was
the candidate of the Labor reform
party, for president. In 1877 he
resigned his place on the Supreme
Bench, and was elected to the
United States Senate by the Legis-
lature of Illinois, as and Indepen-
dent. His term, as Senator, expired
on the 4th of March, 1888, and he
was President of the Senate from
October 1881 to March 1888. He
was regarded as an able jurist, and
an upright, honest judge.

HON. 5. E. WILSON.

The distinguished Tennesseean
whose name heads this article, has
been appointed by President Cleve-
land, marshal of the Middle District
of Tennessee. His appointment was
strongly urged by Congressman
McMillin, and Senator Harris.
Mr.. Wilson is well and favorably
known to the people of Tennessee,
and has a large personal following.
He is a gentleman Of marked ability
and strong convictions. There is
one thing we always admired him
for, especially, and that is this: that
when he was for, or against mea-
sure, he never hesiJated to let his
convictions be known. He is an
able lawyer, a close student, and
one Of the most effective debalers
in the state. Notwithstanding he
once made canvass for Governor
of Tennessee against the regular
nominee Of his party, there is not a
better democrat in the state than he
is. The Wilson bolt in 1880, was
in the interest Of the taxpayers OF
Tennessee, aud there are thousand
valid excuses for it. The democrats
in Tennessee will hail his appoint
ment to the Marshalshlp of Middle
Tennessee with perfect satisfaction

The Union seems just to have
heard ofthe Hardeman County reso-
lutions, which were passed some
time prey ious to the last Judicial
Convention, and for over a column
and a half. "Our Ante-Belium

at these resolutions adopted in the

dissatisfied with the Democracy ofthat

vert them to some Of the ''progres-
