THB ARMPHIS APPEAL
Dor 1876.

The Appeal enters upon ITS forty
sixth year ripe in he experiences Of
the last, aud full Of hope for a future
or the whole country, but especially for
this this and the neighbsring States
that shall surpass the dreams of the
most sanguine. All the question
growing out OF slavery, and which left
tnearly three generations have been set
tied, and the states have adjusted them
selves to the new conditions in a spir
it Of unity, peace and concord. There
are heretofore, no issues before the
country that are not common to all the
people, and that are not Of an eeonOm
ica and national character. There arc
no questions before the National Leg
tslature that do not equally affect the
he Interested the States and that can
not be discussed from a basis OF per
sont welfare by the by the citizens OF
all OF them. For the future therefore
egisla. on both national and State, is
to be OF a business character, and Is
for that reason to come home closer
and closer to the individual citizen.
Personal politics is with the bosses, to
be regulated Q the past, and civil ser
vice reform is to secure to the country
honesty efficiency and ;adustrY in
public places. The political outlook
is all that could be desired Presiden
Cleveland has made an abiding impress
sion upon this csuntry, and at the close
Of his administration viii have recon-
ciled even bis political opponents to a
coBtnyance of Democratic ascendan
cy There is nothing to hinder or
cetard the progress ofthe country. All
rhe available lands Of the West taken
up, the South NEST for many years be
the favored section for enterprising I'm
migrants, and Its coal and iron field
invite capitalists from the exhausted
mineral lands Of the North and West.
A rapid and great increase Of manu-
facturers must follow, aud this will
necessiate rapid increase Of railroads
and a corresponding increase Ct popu
lahon. The appeal, III pioneer IN
the journalistic fe!d of the 5 juthwest
always in sympathy with the people
will be found during the year jue
born as full Of enterprise as in the IS
and animated by only the desire tt
keep the lead and prompt its readers to
the increasing advantages Of our soil
and climate and geographical situation
To accomplish this no expense will
be spared. We shall continue tc
make most liberal use of the tele.
graph and thus keep our readers in
formed Of the advance OF the world
day by day as fast as developments il
any department OF human efforts are
made public. We S. all endeayor t.
keep the Appeal up TO its now higi
standard asa newspaper and leader o
pubic opinion, and so continue tc de
serve the so far mistaken confidence
ola constituency that is strongest GU
side Of Tennessee, in Mississippi, Ar
kansas and Alabama.

Ithaving come to my knowledge
that some Of the brethren are in
doubt as to the exact meaning Of
the law recently adopted by the
Grand Lodge, which reads as fol-
lows: Subordinate Lodges may
not hereafter initiate or admit to
membership saloon keepers, but
any member OF a subordinate
Lodge heretofore licensed TO keep
a saloon may be permitted to con-
tinue till the expiration Of his
present license;" and conceiving
it to be my duty to settle the mat
ter by official decision 1 have care
fully examined the law in question,
both in letter and spirit, and have
no hesitation in deciding that the
words "mdy not hereafter initiate or
admit" etc, means shall not here
after initiate, etc.
