There are in Jackson some Of the
vilest dens on the face Of the earth.
We refer to a few-two or three
low doggeries, which derive their
support from the lowest class of
drunkards. Receiving stolen goods is
not considered too bad thing at these
dens, and clothing, mechanics tools,
and all manner Of things have gone
INTO the doggery-keepers' possession.
No dive in the lowest districts Of
New York City ever got down to a
lower level than this. 1t is state of
affairs that might well make the
people of Jackson blush with shame.
Liquors are sold to habitual drunkards,
without fear of punishment. The
law and its punishments are not con-
sidered by the keepers Of these low
dives. The liquor business is bad
enough at its best-but these robbers
dens constitute a disgrace and a
menace to the community.

curse to the State. The law throws
a large proportion of the convicts in.
to idleness. They are now locked in
their cells with nothing to do but to
think of their past crimes or to hatch
schemes to perpetuate others in the
future. Prison labor in New York
is now cut down so that no more
goods are manufactured than enough
to supply the prison. The hat and
brush manufacturers of New York
should be sharp enough to see that
where before the convicts were self
supported they are now living upon
the earnings of honest men outside
the Jail. The people pay for the idle
ness of the convicts and the convicts
have no chance to learn to be good
citizens while they are in Jail. The
law is bad thing altogether and
Ohio and other States which have
been consideringbome means to pre-
vent undue competition of convict
labor with trades outside can profit
by New York's failure to solve the
problem at least to the extent of
steering clear of the New York PLAN"

Death Of Gilbert T. Alternately.

Our citizens generally will be sad
ened to hear of the death of Col. Gill
bert Il. Alternately, which occurred at
his residence in the 10th District, on
Tuesday December 4th, at 1880 o'clock,
of typhoid fever, aged sixty eight
years and seven months.
In view of the fact that the de-
ceased was one of the most prominent
citizens of our county, we feel that
it is due to him, that a short obituary
notice should be published giving the
principle events of his life.
Deceased was a native of Tennessee,
and was born May 2, 1920, and on
the Sth of January 1889 was married
to Miss Ann S. Baxter, to whom
was born two children. On the 10Th
of December 1858, he was married
the second time to Emily B. Talley,
the fruits of this union being eleven
children. AT the early age of sixteen
years Mr.. Alternately volunteered as
a soldier and went to fight the Creek
Indians, in Florida, being absent
seven months. For a while he was
employed as book-keeper of the Ten
nesse Iron Works, and in 1910 be-
came part owner, he continued sue
cessfully in the business until the
war, and the firm was known as the
largest iron mongers in the State
however in common with men of his
class, his property was swept away
by the vicissitudes of war. Having
large family on his hands, he al
once set about providing for them
and opened school in Antioch, and
soon established himself as one of the
best educators in the country.
The farm on which he resided al
the time of his death, was the por-
ton received by Mrs. Abernathy from
her fathers estate.
Gilbert L. Alternately was a brave
and honest man. One who had bus
mess transactions with him fo
, almost twenty-five years, says hC
was a most acurate and cOmpeten
accountant, and as honest as he wa
competent. He says he never knew
him to make an error in his figure
and his ledgers showed no erasures
and was without a blur in his elegan
penmanship. He met adversely 4
an honest, brave man, these were tn
salient trates in his character.
In 1882, at the urgent request of hi
friends, he became candidate 70
Representative as a State Credi
Democrat, and made a very credita
bic race.
Nature was i'm liberal mood wheI
she made Col Alternately, of nObl
commanding appearance. He was
splendid specimen of manhood, an
one of the most genial and warn
hearted Of men. He WAS Away

MANY of the papers and statesmen
have been explaining tho Democratic
defeat. They are exercising their
hindsight with great ability. 1t is at
tributed to Cleveland's tariff reform
message, to the Mills bill, to Henry
Watterson's Star-eyed Goddess, to
sectional prejudice, to the free use OF
money and to hard lying. All these
things may have had something to do
with it, but the fact is, we were badly

no use in whimpering over the tactical
fluid after it has once been drunk up

Cleveland's last message is digni-

declares, and should never be COM
promised" The Presidents argu-
ment upon this question is clear and
strong. If he had sent this message
TO congress three years ago, and fol-
lowed it in 1886 with the issue-forc
ing message Of last year, not even the
power of money nor the personal
disafiection in the party who elected
Cleveland could have prevented
Democratic success. But though the
right thing was done at the wrong
time, the issue remains. The
condition confronts us. The sur

Another Old Land Mark Gone.

Yesterday evening between 3 and
3 o'clock Henry Lyle, Sr,, died very
suddenly at his residence on the
Southside of the river. He walked
out to little orchard near the house,
and his wife noticed that hestumbled
and fell over log. She hurried out
to look after him, and when she
reached the spot found that he was
dead. He had been suffering for
many years with vertigo and often
sreeled about as drunken man. and
it is supposed that he died of ap-
oplexy of the brain.
He was born in this county near
where he died, and would have been
seventy-five years old next Wednes-
day, December II. He married Miss
Jane McCorkle and to them were
born thirteen children, most of whom
are living. In 1S4S he was elected
tax collector for the County
and filled that Office for thirteen
years, under the old system of col
Letting taxes. In 1872 he moved to
the farm where he died, formerly the
J. P. Daily farm.
In many respects he was remark
able man. His memory was extra
ordinary in past events; he could
give you dates and incidents accur-
ately and he was very fond of repeat
ing past incidents to the youth of the
present day. He belonged to McCul-
loch Lodge of Masons at Palmyra,
and was a member of the Methodist
church.
His funeral was preached at the
residence this evening at 4 o'clock,
by his pastor Rev. J. G. Rice, and
the interment took place at the old
family burying ground, where his
father and motherand many relatives
have slept for many long years. The

Col. A. s. CoLYAR, who has writ
ten about almost everything, has
now tackled the race question, and
in long letter to the Commercial
Gazette endeavors to find out how to
reconcile fair elections and white
supremacy. The problem is a hard
one to solve, but Col. Colyar treats it
in a mastery way. In one place he
says: "In many parts of the South,
as in Tennessee, there are many
elevated men among the negroes
and they are as ready as the white
men is to admit that in the extreme
South, where large communities of
the race are practically without ed
ucation and without mental training,
negro domination would be curse
to both races. A policy which must,
in the estimation of the Southern
people, lead to the supremacy of the
colored race and its domination, will
unavoidably lead to social disorders,
eliminating in struggle between
the races for existence"
