Times, however, because Of the tariff
plank Of the platform, then we can under
stand the matter, and appreciate the pro-
priety OF the tender. 1t is very likely that
this was the idea Of the party who made
IL, and, in that view Of the case, The Times
should have forwarded the crow TO The
Nashville american instead OF seeking to
divert the attention Of the public from the
real purpose OF the crow-purveyor by for
warding the birds TO The ApPEAL. The
tariff plank adopted by the Con-
vention is exactly as The APpEAL
would have had II, but it is directly OPP
posed to cie principles which both The
american and The Times have so persist
emily advocated. just what The Times and
The AMERICAN are going to do about 1t, we,
OF course, cannot say. We trust that each
OF them will advocate the tariff idea Of the
platform with the same degree Of onthusi-
asm and positively which THE APPEAL
will continue TO manifest in its advocacy
Of Robert l.. Taylor for Governor AS
The Times has cordially acquiesced
in the nomination Of Taylor for Governor,
will II show the same loyal party spirit in
obcying the mandate Of the Convention
with regard to the tariff That's the
question pending the distribution Of crow.

SQUIRE MASON'S CASE.

The report OF the Grand Jury which
was Published in yesterdays APPEAL re-
yeals state OF things ut the Work.house
which reflects most discrediiably upon the
County Court, and shows, II anything else
were needed to show II, the necessity for
legislation TO put stop 10 the custom that
has prevailed 80 long with that body Of
''parcelling" out the offices among It's
members. II reveals a state OF things for
which there Is no excuse, because the at
teniion OF tho Court has been many times
called 10 II since the first indict.
menis against Squire Mason were
presented. Tho escape Of so many prison
eB would seem 10 DO an impossibility
without collision with, or the connivancc
Of some Of the officials; and as TO the in
crease In the cost Of maintenance Of the
prison, II speaks for itself when contrasted
with the figures Of the previous year. But
the working OF conyicts on his own planta-
ton Is enough Of itself to force Squire Ma
sons resignation. lie knew he had no
right To use the conyicts, aud that In saw
ing himself so much expense for labor he
was taking just 80 much money from
the county. Mr.. Mason should not be
permitted TO remain in charge Of the prison
day. lie Is incompetent to MI the posi-.
ton Of superintendent, and is not trust
worthy. lie should be removed at once,
and II he has given bond, his bondsmen
should be held for every cent Of convict
labor and for any discrepancies In the
cost Of maintenance Of the prison. And
with his case in view, let us remind the
citizens that tho noxt Legislature should

PUBLIC AND PRIVATE MORALS.
DR.. Briney. of the Christian Church
on Opium Joints and Dens of Vice.

DR.. Briney, of the Christian Church,
on Opium Joints and Dens of Vice.
At the Linden Street Christian church
last night the Rev. Mr.. Briney duringa dis
course upon public and private morals
took occasion TO comment upon the action
Of the city authorities in raiding Chinese
opium joints and refusing to suppress
gambling bells and houses OF ill-fame. DIR.
Briney severely censured the authorities
for discriminating in favor Of the greater
evil and the greater vice, for
furnishing people guilty OF minor
ofienses and ignoring the greater
criminals. The reverend gentleman
contended that the Chinaman in smoking
opium was guilty OF no crime, and that he
had as much right to smoke his opium as
the white man had TO smoke his tobacco.
The great evils which destroy the soul were
left unmolested by the city authorities.
No one was ever known TO leave an opium
joint and start out to paint the town red.
These retired to their homes to sleep and
dream away the effect OF the drug. The
boys OF the city are being ruined, and the
authorities are responsible because they
permit saloons, gambling-houses and other
dens Of vice to keep open, and into these
the youth Of the city are enticed onlyto be
ruined. He did not believe the authori-
ties had any right TO invade the home Of
the Chinaman and arrest him or his friends
because they were smoking opium. He did
not believe in such sumptuary laws. But
there were laws in the statute book direct
ing the closing and breaking up Of all dens
OF vice, and these laws were not enforced.
II was straining at the gnat and
swallowing the camel. There was law
against selling liquor to minors, and every
policeman on the beat knows that saloon
keepers daily and nightly sell children,
boys and girls, buckets Of beer. The
learned gentleman spoke earnestly and
eloquently upon this theme before return
ing 10 the main line OF his discourse. The
congregation present was large, and seemed
deeply interested in the subject which
was so vigorously handled.
