THE TENTH DISTRICT.

1t is somewhat startling fact that
the State of Tennessee went Demo-
cratic in the recent election princi-
pally because of the unparalleled
Democratic majority in the Tenth
Congressional District. Four years
ago lack Taylor, Republican, was
elected to Congress from this district
by majority of about 1900, ana he
ran behind his ticket. This year the
district goes Democratic by over
5000 majority. This makes change
of nearly 10000 votes. Now suppose
these 10000 votes had been cast for
the Republican ticket this year,
Harrisons vote would have been
148. 9s3, while Ceveland's would
have been reduced to 1887; Bob
Taylor's vote would have been re-
duced to I46,790, while Hawkins
would have been swelled to 1904.
In other words, if this change had
not occurred in the Tenth Congress
ional District Grover Cleveland might
have lost the electoral vote of Ten
nessee, and Sam Hawkins might
have been elected Governor of the
State. The Importance of Shelby
county is made apparent from this
circumstance to all politicians who
wish hereafter to carry the State
Leaving out this district the returns
show that in the rest of the State tn
Republicans have made gains.

and Martha Washington, were sold
in Boston the other day for a sum
exceeding 5000. They were
small pictures and yellow with age,
yet there was a great rush on the
part of curio seekers to secure them.
The value of the prints lay in the fact
that they were the first engraved
prints Of George and Martha Wash
ington made in this country by j.
Norman, the first American en-
graver. They were made in 1882.
There is duplicate of the print OF
George Washington, but that Of Mar
tina Washington is the only one in
existence. They were portion OF
the estate of the late Ben Perley
Poore. They were knocked down to
a Boston man.

Hundreds Of Gallons Taken From
~ One Man.


United States Marshal Wilson re-
ceived from MeMinnville yesterday
twenty-five barrels Of confscated
whisky, containing from twenty-five
to forty gallons each.
It was formerly the property Of J.
j. Northcote, who ran licensed
distilIery in Warren county, twelve
miles from McMinnville. Six weeks
ago this man concealed seventy-two
five'gallon kegs Of whisky, on which
the tax had not been paid, in the
centres of an equal number of barrels
Of apples and consigned them to
Birmingham. te
The trick was discovered By the
revenue officials, and the cargo ship
ped to the Collector at Nashville.
Under the law a general confiscation
of the offenders spirituous property
follows. The custom house cellars
now contain 1900 or 800 gallons of
whiskyre received from this individual,
who is at present a fugitive from JUS

WHERE WE GAINED.

Since the defeat of Mr.. Cleveland
the Democrats seem to be non-plussed
and undecided as to what course
should be pursued towards tariff
reform. Those who believe in policy
before principle will of course favor
the abandonment of the agitation,
but it is plain that no great party can
hope to make Roadway with fhe peo-
pie by hogging a policy of science
and sitting solemnly ON the fence.
AS the figures come in, they tell a
story, which is not without its en-
enlargement to those who wish to
see the war tariff abated. The result
of the tariff agitation in nutshell is
this;
Tariff Reform has made consider.
able advance in the manufacturing
centres, but it has lost or at least
failed to make Roadway among the
farmers. The Democrats have gained
ia the three largest wool growing
States, Texas, Ohio and California.
The Republican plurality in Ohio
has come down from 31,8O2 to q 900,
while i'm California there has heen a
loss of several thousand votes to the
Republicans. Rhode Island is the
great wool manufacturing state of
the country, and in Its leading manu-
featuring towns there have been
msdiSsd REDUCTIONS lii Republican
pi"raHties. Blaine carried the State
by $3.50; Harrison carried il by 4,427.
III New Hampshire, another manu-
featuring state, the Republican plu-
Yulity has been reduced from 5,066 to
2,T3S. The story is repeated in the
large wool manufacturing centres Of
Philadelphia, Norwich, Conn, Wa
terbury, Bridgeport and Meridian
The losses in Connecticut to the
Democrats were almost entirely In
the country districts. Thus 1t will be
seen that the agitation of tariff re-
form among the notwithstanding
classes, in spit OF the immense coua
ter influence brought to bear by
the millionaire3 has moi beer
in vain. Now let the northern
and western farmers be treated toa
course Of missionary work.

A Hunt

Last night r. T. Wyatt, r. II. and
Robin Edmundson, all of whom live
near Edmondson's ferry, started
about o'clock in a canoe and de-
cended the Cumberland to the mouth
of Red River, and assembled that
river some eight or ten miles on a
general hunt. They were prepared
splendid headlight, guns, ammunition,
exc. The result of their hunt was
Ave wild geese, five coons, seven
squirrels and hawk, which was killed
at long range. All the game was
brought to the city this morning and
rapidly disposed Of at a good price.

Wonder If It's So

We noticed in an exchange yester-
day, that the Salvation Army, who
have been all over the country and
have sung and prayed good many
hard cases into leading better life,
are making preparations to move on
GAINESVILLE with "blood and fire. "
We have no use for the Army here,
and respectfully request them to keep
their distance although we have
known of their doing some good
but as general thing, they attract q
crowd of roughs, and their influence
in the long run is anything but good

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.

The Democrats who have hereto
fore failed to appreciate the wisdom
of President Cleveland in doing his
heat to enforce the provisions OF the
civil service law, will now perceive
fine value of civil service in atfording
a breakwater against the sweeping
changes which ordinarily follow a
change of administration. Mr.. liar-
rison voted for the civil service act.
Thousands of Republicans have held
fast to their positions underth the shield
Of its provisions. Much as 1T would
delight the victors to Immediately
seize upon all the clerkships in the
custom houses, postofiices and Other
official quarters of federal patronage
the process of change will necessarily
he slow. AS Republicans held Over
under Cleveland, 80 will Democrats
hold over under Harrison; civil ser
vice re.orm will thus commend itsei
20 the appreciation of the lovers o
fair play. The policy that woulC
make a change of clerks every time
thpre should be change of public
nninion cannot be defended upoI
business principles.

Bread Made From Turnips.

There was a dearth Of wheat in
England in 1929, 1880 and 1893, and
in those years bread was made of
turnips. They were boiled until they
were soft enough to mash, when the
greater part of the water was pressed
out of them. An equal weight OF
wheat meal was then mixed with
the pulp, and the dough was made in
the usual manner with yeast. The
dough rose we'll in the trough, and,
after being kneaded, was formed into
loaves and put in the oven. Bread
prepared in this manner has pecu-
liar swedish taste, which is said to
be not disagreeable it is as light and
white as wheaton bread, and should
be kept about twelve hours before
being cut, when the smell and taste
Of the turnip viii scarcely be percepti'
BILE.
