THE MESSAGE.
President CleveIand's Final Reg
ular Message to Congress.
A Review of the Condition of Affairs as
they Exist with Suggested REM
odies-The People the Gov
ernment's First Care

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-After the prelim-
mary proceedings in Congress to-day the
Presidents annual message was received
and read, in substance as follows:
To THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES
As you assemble for the discharge Of the du-
ties you have assumed as the representatives
OF free and generous people, your meeting is
marked by an interesting and impressive Incl
dent. With the expiration of the present ses-
sion Of the Congress the first century of our
constitutional existence as a Nation VIII be
completed. Our survival for one hundred years
is not sufficient to assure US that we no longer
have dangers to fear in the maintenance, with
all its promised blessings, OF a government
founded upon the freedom OF the people. The
time rather admonishes us to sOberly inquire
whether in the past we have always closely
kept In the course of safety and whether we
have before US a way plain and clear which
leads 70 happiness and perpetuity. When the eX-
pertinent OF our Government was undertake n
the chart adopted for guidance the
Constitution. Departure from the lines there
laid down is failure. 1t is only by a
strict adherence to the direction they indicate
and by restraint within the limit atoms they
fix that we can furnish proof to the world OF
the American peoples fitness for self-govern-
ment. The equal and exact justice of which
we boast as the underlying principle Of our in
stitutiOns should not be confined to the rela-
tions OF our citizens TO each other. The Govern
ment itself is under bond TO the American peo-

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Dec. G.-The little
city Of Dayton, Tenn, was visited by a fire
this morning, which destroyed two cot
tages. After the blaze had ended some
one, in kicking around in the ashes, dis

Communism is hateful thing, and menace
to peace and organized government. But the
communism of combined wealth and capital
the outgrowth Of overweanIng cupidity
and seIfishness, which insiduously under
mines the justice and integrity of free
institutions, is not less dangerous than
the communism OF oppressed poverty and toll
which, exasperated by Injustice and discomfort,
attacks with wild disorder the citadel of rule.
He moclxs the people who proposes that the
Government shall. protect the rich and that
they in turn will care for the laboring poor.
Any intermediary between the people and their
Government or the least delegation OF the care
and protection our Government owes to the
humblest citizen in the land, makes the boast OF
free institutions a glittering delusi0n anq the
pretended boon of American citizenship
shameless imposition.
The Bolivar bulletin. (Bolivar, Tenn.) 1888-1946, 1888-12-14

A just and sensible revision OF our tariff laws
should be made for the relief OF those OF oul
countrymen who suffer under present condt
tiOns. Such a revision should receive the sup
port Of all who love that justice and equality
due to American citizenship; OF all who realize
that in this justice and equality our Govern
ment finds its strength and its power to protect
the citizen and his property; OF all who believe
that the cOntented competence and comfort o.
many accord better with the spirit of our instt
tutions than colossal fortunes unfairly gathered
in the hands of a few; of all whoS appreciate
that the forbearance and fraternity among
our people which recognize the value Of every
American interest, are the surest guaranty
of cur National progress and of all who desire
TO see the products of American skill and in
genuity in every market Of the world with a re
sulting restoration Of American commerce.

All the fire engines, trucks and

tached to several hydrants, but the
cold snap had rendered them ST.

Pals OF water were taken up on
the roof aud dashed over the blaz-

to keep the FIRE from spreading.
Finally the Curry engine got
water from cistern and got on a

out the blaze. For while there

Water was sent ripping through
one hose before it was unreeled
from the cart. Damages nominal.

A Hint to HIousckcepers.

During the present cold snap
there is great danger of vegetables
freezing. They can be saved by
leaving coal oil lamp burning in
the room where the vegetables are
kept. For several nights past the
writer has tried this experiment in
a root house, and a single lamp
burning alb night kept the tempera-
ture 80 degrees hig than that of
the outside atmosphere. The root
house was built with double walls
with sawdust packed between.

The Rough Trcassmens OF a
Eureka Nan by a Mob.
| EUREKA (Nev. }, January 6.-Lasi
TUESDAY night Phil paroni, a we'll
known bus. her of this town, was
taken from his house by masked
men and ost inhumanly treated.
The mob was composed OF about
twelve men. The victim had un-
dergone thee examinations in the
Courts for alleged outrage of a GIL
Is years old. The offense is cha e
ed to have been committed ten
months ago. A child was recently
born TO the gil, and in The cou IS
she swoio that Pa:oui vas is
father. Paroni stoutly denied his
guilt, and on the trials attempted 10
Prove that ne was ncapaciiated at
that time by disease. The courts
and Grand Jury having laiied TO
convict BIN, the mob in question
took it upon themselves to punish
ilim.
On TUESDAY, night a docen mask-
ed men entered end seized Pa~cni,
who lived in the very heart OF the
tcwn. The affair took place at 8 80
O'Clock, and the yict:n was marched
along some OF the principal st:'ee.s
to the crest OF the mountain west OF
town. He was taken ous haiisSs
and ccatless. They bad not pro-
ceeded far when they gagged him
10 prevent his making an outcr.v.
The night was one OF the Sc
verest of the Winte, the snow be-
jag very deep and still falling in
binding clouds. Arrived at inc
top OF The hill, the mob stripped |
Pa,oni naked to the waist ana be-
smea ed his heao and shou ide,s ana |
body VIII a heavy coating OF taa,
in the absence of feathe they de- !
co"ated him with soaps OF paper
ms, cad. The most inhuman
thii.s OF all they talsea of was
setting fire to the papef and
tar and thus roasting the man
alive, but finally his hands
Were tied behind him and he was
Ola to leave the coun.ry and never
re,urn 10 Eureka on pain of being
instantly Killed. He made his way
10 Diamond Station, a distance OF |
WE'VE miles. where he arrived in |
about four hours, moe dead than |
l'ive. He came up on the an I
two DAYS late. Until his return
.he commun;,y rega .ded him as
lead. There was great rejoicing
among his friends and the public
generally at bis return. He lecog-
q led all who parLici pated ia the
outrage and has given list of their
names to his attorneys, and some
lively work is ahead.

The Congressional Situation.

The withdrawal of Mr.. Powell
leaves Capt. w. T., Ellis about tho on
ly candidate for the Democratic con.
gressional nomination. iThere will
hardly be any other real entreis at
this late day, as it is not now possible
for any man in the'district to defeat
the aspirant from Daviess. Capt
Ellis has strong hold on the people
and 10 man or, combination can
down him. The entire Powell vote
of this county goes to him, and we
are confident that no man in the dis
trict can out run him in Christian.
We have heard it whispered that
Mr. Lafloon would enter the contest.
Mr.. Lafloon can not defeat Ellis. lie
has given repeated assurances that
he would not make the race, and the
people have forgotten him as a con-
gre.sional possibility. His with
drawal was voluntary and he cannot
expect the people TO recognize claim
he might put forth at this stage Of
the game. In the event he should
run, he will find it impossible to de-
feat Capt. Ellis, and we are confident
that poll of the Democratic voters
of this county would show that Ellis !
is favorite by an overwhelming |
majority,
BE that as it may, whether Ellis
has competition or not VIC pros
nounce him a certain winner. We
are proud to think that this district
will have q representative Of such
merit, and we look |
forward with large expectations to-
wards the labors of our fayorite ini
the halls of Congress. sra ' MI
