To the Chronicle:
The annual conference of Middle
Tennessee MethodistS met in the hos
pitable town Of Fayetteville, Bishop
Keener presiding. And who should
| see upon entering the conference
room but my noble and cheerful
friend from Southside, Collin u. Rob
erts. Bless his dear soul, he captured
me long ago by his zeal for the church
and infiexible devotion to principles
oftrue manliness. He delivered Ster-
ling Neblett's message, to which / do
now readily and willingly respond.
Here are other old friends, also from
GAINESVILLE and thereabouts, among
whom / must of course mention the
names of Pickering, Caldwell and
Macrae-men whom ] always loved
to greet. PEBBLES and Hill are fat
and smiling; Travis is fully at him
self.
But OF the conference. Nothing
very particular, as this is the first
day. The pastors and delegates are
nearly all here, and in good trim for
work. Bishop Keener is one OF our
old "panel,' and knows his business
a little too particular on
minor questions of law. The mem
bers of the conference, in a general
way, give diligence in hearing and
acting upon such questions as come
before them for their action. They
formerly left things too much to a few
old members.

THE THIRD PARTY.

On the 23d of this month the Prohi
bitionists will meet in convention al
GAINESVILLE for the purpose of nomi
mating a legislative ticket. That
means opposition to our candidates
for the Legislature, and by men, some
of whom have heretofore affiliated
with the Democratic party. The
Prohibitionists seem to be disposed to
sacrifice everything just for the pur-
pose of organizing another party,
when they know they stand no
earthly chance of carrying a single
district in Tennessee. All the legis-
lation on that subject now is the work
ofthe Democratic party. The Dem
ocrats passed the four-mile law, the
best restriction law in the world on
the liquor subject; they extended the
four-mile law; they repealed the char
tiers of little towns, so that this law
could operate; they submitted to the
people Of the State an amendment to
the constitution to prohibit the man
ufacture or sale Of liquor in the State,
and now we ask these gentlemen,
after all the things done for them by
the Democrats of Tennessee, will you
slap the party in the face by throw
ing your votes away, when you are
needed in the ranks of the Democ-
racy against the. common enemy of
our country - Republicanism. No
party based on a single issue can, or
ought, succeed, and men should not
throw their votes away at this time,
in this great struggle against Cypress
i've taxation and wrong inflicted |
upon the people by the Republican
party. Knowing, as they do, that
Fisk and johnson stand no earthly |
chance Of election, ought they not |
know that vote for these gentlemen,

Gratis, is half vote for Harrison and |

The canvas is fast drawing to q

GERS, opened to the qualified voters OF
this county to receive their ballots.
Every man entitled to vote should
not fail to do so, for upon the votes
of all of our citizens depend the well
fare of this county. Some men fail
to appreciate the responsibility they
are under to themselves, their neigh
bors and their country. They don t
seem to realize that upon their votes
depend the policies to be pursued and
practiced by the party in power. 1t
il also a fact that the men who do not
vote are the ones who complain most
of bad government, and express dis
satisfaction at the way things are
managed. The man who fails or re-
fuses to vote, has no right to COM

We have population of $4,000 or
20 900 in this county, giving us vot-
ing population of 1000, and we have
never polled more than 5000 votes
in any election. Cleveland only re-
ceived $500 votes in 1884, when he
should have received, and would
have received, had the Democrats all
voted, mt least $500 or 1000 votes.
We have the voters, but the trouble
is we don't get them to the polls, or
rather they won't so to the polls. a

has served under Presidents Lincoln
and Johnson, and also under Presi-

His official intimacy and knowledge
Of the surplus as Secretary have led
Mr.. McCulloch to recognize the JUS
tice and sound logic put forth by the
President as to the necessity of reduc-
ing this surplus fund. Wherefore,
he says, ho will vote as he thinks, for
the President who seeks to remedy
the economic evils. Mr.. McCulloch
is one OF the best informed men in
the Republican party on the intrica-
cies and practical features Of the tariff.
Hence his alliance to the Democratic
party is the more CALLING on his for

The No Tobacco idea.

To the Chronicle:
In your paper of 18th inst, I see
an article from "JOhn Dusty" on the
above subject. He calls attention tt
the reduction of acreage in the White
Burley Districts, the advance in Bur.
ley tobacco because of this reduction
of so per cent. and then asks this
question: care the farmers of the
dark growing district less sensible,
or have they got less business about
them, than our neighbors of the Bur.
ley district, etc.," If it was good
business sense on the part of the
White Burley growers to reduce
their acreage SO per cent. and there
by get good prices for what they did
raise, why would it not be good bust
ness sense on the part of dark tobacco
growers to do the same thing? And
why does he not advise his neighbors
to follow this plan.since it worked so
well with the Burley growers?
Says Mr.. "John Dusty "If any
of your readers doubt the success of
not raising any tobacco next season
will call their attention to the differ
ence in prices of Burley's to-day, and
what it was selling at two years
ago" 1t will be seen that Mr.. "John
Dusty" calls attention to, and eulog-
ICES, the plan Of the White Burley
people, and then recommends an en-
tirely different plan for the dark
tobacco people to follow.
l suppose Mr.. DUSTY thinks that
if decrease in acreage of one half
will double the price of the half that
is made, it follows very plainly
that if you raise none you will just
get four times as much for that none
that you don't raise. This all looks
very reasonable Mr.. "Dusty" but |
really | can't think it will work.
The question is, how can a man get |
m increased price for produce that he
don't raise, and therefore has not
got?
Oh, no, Mr.. "Dusty;" it won't do.
mean your logic ola man getting
4 big price for no tobacco at all.
If you went on with your article
like you began, on the so per cent re-
luction plan, then that would have
been good business sense, but your
dea Of man getting four prices, or
even double price, for his tobacco
when he has none to put upon the
market, is absurd.
Your plan of no tobacco at all will
never work, Mr.. DUSTY" for it is
but a reduction in acre
,ge might, and in my opinion should
De generally adopted by farmers.
Ten acres, and no more, for each
md every farmer would make bet
er quality Of tobacco, and bring the
,rico to $40, Sl5 and $40 in less than
i've years. The large farmer could
liant his ten acres, and the balance of
lis land in wheat, corn and stock,
whilst the little fellows that only
'wned ten acres of land could plant ,
lis whole farm in tobacco il he wished !
o do so.
Perhaps you have other means of
making support, Mr.. dusty" be- ]
ides thar of tobacco planting; but re- ,
member there are others who have ,
ot. Let's give the little farmers a
