The NeighbOrhOOd News from Our
Regular Correspondent.

VIOLA, Tenn, April 5.-Most of
the weather this week has been good
on farmers, and it seems they have
made good use of their time. We
are indeed glad to see our country
improving now all the time. The
farmers are working to surpass any,
thing done in the past. There are 5
families in this vicinity who make
from one to two shipments of butter
every week. This brings an average
of about 100000 per month to this
section, which affords almost every
one some pocket change. Theamount
of butter sold to the peddlers and
shipped together brings about 81 1000,
in cash to this vicinity every year.
We are glad to see some enterprising
men among us. But if we could get
a good creamery here the amount of
money would be more than doubled

The American Indian must 60
despite the spasmodic and occa-
sional talk about civilizing him.
Less than three centuries ago there
were probably 100000 of the
aborigines in the limits of what is
now the United States. To-day
they are reduced to a very few
hundred thousand souls.
But this slow method does not
seem to please the people of the
empire of Brazil, in whose domain
there is a very large Indian popu-
lation, many of the interior prov
inces being almost wholly occu-
pied by the red natives. More
active means are used to extermi-
nate the savages. According to
recent reports published in the
Sac Paulo papers, q certain Joa.
quinn Bueno, who has seventy armed
men under his command, recently
assaulted q large Indian village
and while the frightened Indiana
were absent, poisoned with strych
nine, not only the food and drinl
abandoned by the fugitives, bu
also the wells and springs. Ac
cording to Bueno's own declara
ton, he found when he returned {
few days later, 5000 corpses of In
dians in the village. He ais
boosted that in another village b.
had poisoned 800 Indians, and tina
he was about to treat similarly an
other where 5000 Indians resided

The Force of Example.
IN. O. Daily News.l


The absolute certainty of the re-
nomination of Grover Cleveland is
fact at once suggestive and de-
ductive. Coming into power un-
der the auspices of a party which
had been excluded from govern
mental functions for over twenty
years, and reaching the Executive
chair through q revolt in the ranks
of the opposition, he seems to have
gathered, during four years, a
strength which it would be useless
for any ambitious opponent to con-
test.
This puts q thinker at once to
anayalizing in order to find the
causes for SO strange a phenome-
ma. The rule has been that one
term is quantum suficit, and no
man has been honored with Sec
ond term unless he has manifested
some great military or executive
ability. It is conceded by all who
are acquainted with him that Mr..
Cleveland is not a genius In any
sense of the term, that nature and
art, as developed in him as man,
has reached only the substantial
mediocre. His speeches are eclips-
ed every day by rural orators, and
his State papers are remarkable
only for the deep vein of common
sense which pervades them; there
fore his popularity does not spring
from his great mental powers. Hif
military record is as barren as that
of the popinjay who demanded
"the prisoners in your majesty'f
behalf" Therefore his power
with the people does not arise from
any connection with arms. Ths
arts and sciences do not bear hi
name upon their rolls, and philos
ophy has no bays to crown his con
tributions. And yet, for all this
} he is the destined occupant OF thu
i White House for one moro term.
