SENATOR HARRIS.
He Drops Into Memphis and Talks to
the Exchanges.

He Drops Into Memphis and Talks &c
the Exchanges.
The Hon. Isham G. Harris was in towr
yesterday.
He came from ST. Louis, over the Kansa;
City road, arriving at IL o'clock am, and
was promptly taken in charge by personal
and political friends.
Senator Harris presents an unusually
healthy physical appearance. II was an
nounccd that the senator would be at the
exchanges about ~ o'clock, and In consc
quence some 200 Of the leading merchants
were on hand in the Cotton exchange 10
meet him. After he had greeted nearly all
personally Judge Morgan called the assem-
blage 10 order, saying that Senator
Harris had few remarks TO make.
81 dropped in for the purpose" be-
gan the Senator, "of meeting the men
Of this body, which Is the bone and sinew
Of the city and which is rapidly making
Memphis one Of the most important markets
In the country II is always n pleasure for
me 10 meet and confer with the citizens of
this city on any matter concerning her BUSH
ness interests.
"Thc great question that is stirring up in
terest now, OF course, is the presidential
nominations. The ticket we selected at st,
Louis Is the strongest we could possibly have
chosen, and those Of you who are Republi-
cans can well feel sad at the prospective re-
suit. | tender you my coincidence. Blaine
has put himself In such an attitude that
his party can't possibly nominate him
The nomination Of Mr.. Thurman will.
IN all probability necessitate that Of
John sherman for first place, and In
diana's doubtful attitude will cause Harrison
In lao F.lunaN fhn tail apH Of thn ttaraf
The Democratic majority, think, this year
will be larger than II has been for either
party for sixteen years.
"At Washington We are divided on the
revenue question, but We will change the
existing state OF affairs ut no distant day.
We are now collecting between $1,000. 900
and 81, 600 90 month more than is needed
for expenses. The accumulation amounts
now % over $50, 10000 In addition 10
slOO,OO00OO in gold coin 10 redeem legal
tender locked up In the treasury, and
so, 900 900 In bank notes tO redeem the legal
tender, making in all $4,000. 900 that Is
taken out Of the business Of the country,
though needed every day and hour. This
must DO gotten out, and my theory Is IL
should be put into bonds.
"But did not intend 10 make a political
speech. hope, however, 10 meet you at no
very distant day, when | shall make a sure
enough political talk"
Later Senator Harris was rendered din
ncr at which half dozen or 30 OF his old
friends were present. Among the incidents
ot the occasion was the presentation 20 the
senator Of red bandana handkerchief by
Mai Petit.
Being due In Washington tomorrow, SEN
ator Harris left last night for that city. He
promised 30 wind mp his immediate business

passage Of the Mills bill was demanded. This Is
all that was required to make the issues Of the
campaign clear In the minds Of intclli'
| gent persons. II means that tho Dem.
ocmtic party Is not only in favor OF en-
larging the free list and reducing the tariff on
many articles which cannot be produced in this
country with the present wages paid to labor, but
that the tariff shall be fixed with sole reference 10
the collection OF revenue II means that the policy
under which the country has prospcred 50
mayelonsly and so grlndly is TO be reversed.
IL means that the manufacturers Of America
are TO be put 10 the test OF compel
Ing with European manufacturers and that the
wages Of American labOrr is 10 be reduced, or
that they must seek now fields Of labor 1t means
a revolution In our whole industrial system and n
general adjustment Of labor and capital, which
will produce widespread ruin and general dis
hstcr II means that American markets are 10 be
supplied from European ports and .thnt American
consumers are 20 be at the mercy Of European
monopoAtls. II means q surrender of American
Interests 10 GRITTY and enrich European capitalists
IL means the abandonment Of n policy that has
been tried aud found TO work admirably, that
has blessed and enriched great nation,
and adopting one that has been tried In the past
aud has always brought financial depression and
disaster II means voyage on stormy sea, where
wrecks will appear on every hand and fortunes
stranded and ruined on every shore. The issues
are made up Tho American voters must decide
next November.
This does not consist with the claims OF
the Protective Democrats as 10 the plat
form, and may be accepted as fair ex-
preston Of the Protective Republican idea.
''The truth is" as The Nashville Democrat
states il, that the convention at st. Louis
chad no other thought than togive aheariy
Endorsement 10 Mr.. Cleyeland's Message
and Mr.. German would not have dared TO
face the convention with platform which
Ignored IL. To have adopted such a
platform and gone before the country
with tho President pledged in his
Message 10 n certain policy, and the
party pledged in its platform to defeat that
policy would have been a piece Of stu
pendous folly, which would have sent the
party to certain defeat. Pig.iron poll
ticians, who would be secretly glad 10 have
Cleveland defeated anyway, would be
much rcjoiccd 10 have such condition Of
things, but as they could not bring tabout
they now seek by bold misslatcmcnts Of
the plain reading OF the platform to make
IL appear So"

HOW rs TIIIsf
Is the County Executive Committee
Manipulated for Favored Candidate.f

hshtputhteu tor futored tnndtdntcsT
Whether correct or not, there san impress
sion that the county executive committee Is
not acting In a spirit OF complete fairness
toward all the candidates. This was brought
TO the cars Of AN ArPEAL reporter yesterday
by gentleman who watches affairs with a
discriminating eye. Said he:
1T has been the custom as far back rs
can remember for the executive committee
TO step down and out in favor Of SUCCESSORS
at the time OF holding each gubcrnntorial
convention. That event has passed, yet the
same old committee Is In charge, with no
telling when they intend 10 give some other
fellows or the party chance. Further than
that, they have made no announcement
about the primaries or any other preliminary
work, give forth no statement n 10 what Is
being or going 10 be done, but are allow. <
the. candidates TO founder about Ia tIe
dark. But the most noticeable thing done.
and one that lays the committee liable ieS,ci,.
sure, Is its action In filling uLs~<neancy
caused by the resignation OF Mr.. Joe j. WIf.
Jams, candidate for county trustee. Mr.
Andrew j. Harris was chosen 10 an ont the
complement Unless am badly mistaken.
this gives the county trustees Office tbrco
out OF seven members Of which the com.
mittec Is composed. When you consider
that Mr.. Williams Is n hot hyoritc with
these members, IL doesn't look like tho
square thing toward Mr. Bra Hey, his com.
petitor The executive committee can, In n
quiet way, do great deal Of log rolling for
lis candidates, and the impression prevail.
that this Is just what Il being done. That
candidate Is not Mr.. Bradley, either"

The Mills bill, which support. is a protec-

manufacturers put themselves at the head of

true that the board hyon the increased a..

The engineer Of the road, In conversation
with Mr.. Phclan, somc days ago, stated ab.
solutcly that u the i,0oO feet span was In.
sisted on, the bridge would not be built by
his company. The principal obstacle would
be the greatly increased cost, which he
thought would be at least 100000 or

Monday, visit the War Department and
will use every effort 10 save the bridge. II

We reprint this morning, from The SAM
tdry Neirs, the substance OF the argument
made by DIR. j. Berren Lindsey before
section of the American Medical Associa-
ton, at Cincinnati, in favor Of the crema-
ton OF garbage. His remarks were well
received, and II was made very evident
that the theory that cremation is the ulti-
mate OF sanitation has become popular
with the experts in this science. DIR.
Lindsey showed the rapid progress il was
making in the country by pointing out the
cities which had adopted the principle and
by noting the variety Of furnaces that had
been constructed to meet the demand.
The theory is no longer questioned or cold
shouldered; the approval il now receives,
although II has been only seven years
since 1t was first suggested, is almost gem
eral. Twenty years hence every city Of
importance in the United States will burn
Its garbage and oifal. II is now only a
question OF process, and the furnace in
ventors are solving that very rapidly.
