THE WHITE CASE.

The Debate Promises to Be misunderstanding
Illustration of Democratic Meanness.
Bpecial to the Indianapolis journal
WASHINGTON Jan 29.-Preparations are be-
ing made by members on both sides of the
House for arguments which are to be made dur
ing the week on the Lowry White contested
election. A very warm debate is anticipated,
will be consumed by it. The Democrats have
reached understanding by which the various
points they intend to try to make in the case
have been distributed among them. Mr. Johns
ton, an ex-Confederate from North Carolina,
will argue the point that Lowry is entitled to
the seat, and is to bring mp as law to back his
claim the practice in the British Parliament.
where, he says it ia held that when one
candidate to q seat is declared ineligible, the can
didate receiving the next highest legal vote cast
ia entitled to the seat He acknowledges that the
rules aud practice are different in this country.
There are no presidents showing parallel cases
record in the American Congress. bearing
out any of the vital points at issue in this case
A great deal of anxiety is being shown by
Lowry and his attorneys. As stated several
days ago, a number of Democratic members
have announced that they could not conscien-
tiousy vote to unseat White, as both q matter
of principle and law was involved, - and
he was fairly entitled to his seat.
An evidence of this nervousness is
shown in the course being pursued by the
Washington Post, the Democratic organ. AL
most every day for weeks it has contained
editorials showing careful preparation by Low
rvs attorneys, and bearing the design of foxy
politicians in favor of the contestant. To-day
the Post has long screed. which heads its edi-
torial page, and attacks Captain Whites militia
ry record in the most vicious manner It makes
the assertion that Captain White was discharged
from the army for the good of the service. and
tries to cast suspicion upon his soldier record
against the proof OF officers who bear testimony
in his behalf. This is published to prejudice
White in the House 1t is very likely, now that
this matter has been opened. that Lowrys
savory connection with soldiers during and at
the close of the war will be brought up in debate
in the House If this is done, he will fnd his
friends say, that he has cast q boomerang. A
great deal of interest is being shown in this con-
test, and it is to be one OF the events of the
session.

Southern Lumberman.
Strangers visiting Tennessee do not
get very accurate idea of the State
by looking on the map, because of the
great variations in its typographical
features, constituting eight natural
divisions, and three political divis-
ions. On the map Tennessee presents
striking appearance-to use a
homely, local phrase, it looks like it
was "cut out the wrong way Of the
leather" as the shoemaker said
about the cross-eyed mans eyes.
The shape of the State, its symmetri-
cal form, and the fact that its longest
dimensions extend crosswise instead
of parallel with the topography of the
land, gives it its greatest advantages.
1t gives it the widest range of climate
and productions to be found in any
area of equal extent in the United
States.
Nearly in the geographical center
of the State is the Great Basin of
Middle Tennessee, the Garden of
Tennessee and the paradise of the
South" In its typographical features
it resembles the bed of a great lake,
oval in shape, like large dish, its
longest dimensions extending in a
direction from southwest to north
east, slightly tilted so that its north
west edge is lowest, so as to allow the
waters of the Cumberland and Duck
rivers to spill out over shoals. The
area of the basin is 5, 45O square miles,
and it is surrounded by a flat rim
containing $500 square miles,
elevated from two hundred to seven
hundred feet above the bed of the
basin. The elevated rim-land
furnishes the gushing springs SO
numerous and pure, and also neal
and pleasant summer resorts for the
people. fla committee representing
all the various interests in which the
people of the United States are
engaged had been appointed when
the world was made, with the best
surveyor and wisest sanitary expert
to assist, to lay out an ideal land f0l
homes, they could not have improved
upon the Tennessee Basin, unless
they could have made it larger

vantages offered for residence il

show them, and no description would
convey as correct an idea as {

Log Cabin Logic.
Drawn and Brain Z!

Drawn and Brain!
The powerful engine, with its Won
derful propelling power, coupled to
the long train full freighted with the
richest fabrics of the intellectual
looms ofthe centuries-what obstacles
can stay the progress of this mighty
force, when once under full steam
along life's highway?
The American with Drawn and
brain does not see the necessity for
titles of nobility, does not care for
elevation by descent, he can reach
out and pluck the stars.
But with Drawn or brain impaired,
man is badly handicapped in the
mad race for success which is the
marked characteristic of the present
age.
The physical system is a most
intricate piece of machinery. 1t
ought to be kept well regulated, so
that 1t will work tremendously in all
its parts, then it is capable of an
immense amount of work.
1t is said that watch, if expected
to keep perfect time, must be wound
daily. 1t will not keep good time
unless it "runs regular" More men
break down because they don't "run
regular" than for any other reason.
1t is claimed by physicians that
few men are killed by hard work.
1t is to the Irregularities of modern
social life that the high death rate is
due. Men burn their candle at both
ends, then wonder why it burns out
so quickly.
The main thing in keeping the
human machine in good working
order is to keep the regulator all
right. "The blood is the life," and
sound health is assured so long as the
blood flows through the veins limpid
stream of purity.
Regulate the regulator with
Warmers Log Cabin sarsaparilla, the
old fashioned blood purifier, prepared
after the best formula in use by oul
ancestors in good old Log Cabin days
and with the vigor of Drawn ant
brain which must ensue, in youl
life's lexicon you will find no such
word as fail.
