The Inauguration of President Hsr-
risen cost a great deal of money. If the
weather had been fine instead of bad,
there would have been much more
money expended. The citt, or COM
mittee Of citizens acting for the whole
country, spent about 800, 600 that was
contributed from sill the States in pre-
partitions for the inaugural celebration.
About $50, 600 visitors came to Wash
ington from distances varying from fifty
miles 10 5000. The average cost of the
trip to each of the persons for fares alone
is estimated at $40, which would eat up
81, 500, 600, or put it in the pockets of
the railroads. If the visitors boarded at
tho rate of s. for the stay of two or
three days, they spent $4,000 more,
all of which went into Washington
pockets. Then there were ball tickets
sold to the amount Of SOS, 600, and two
thirds of them were undoubtedly sold to
strangers. Cars, cabs, carriages, stages,
restaurants, saloons, all collected money
as fast as they could render service and
collect, and they must have taken up
enormous sums. The celebration was
profitable TO the marketmen, who adj
vanced prices to everybody; to dealers
In cots and mattresses, who also sd
Yanced prices; to men who had chairs to
sell, and TO lumber dealers, who were
willing to let lumber and timber go out
to be used in stands. The reviewing
stands and windows rented for the day
evidently repaid those who put up the
stands and released the windows. If the
cost of windows alone was estimated at
$4,000 block, which is very much too
low, the amount received from that
source for the length of the procession
must have been $50, 900. My impression
is it would prove to be nearer 800, 600,
for some floors were rented at $500, and
one at least as high as 5000 for the day.
If the sales Of seats on the public stands
were estimated at 81 head, they GER
tainly brought into the SHAREHOLDERS
5000 But many seats sold as high
as s. when under cover, and back seatA
brought 81 every wlfeIe. -.Nep York

THE Pail Mall Gazette says: with
IN the past few weeks a large number
of Irish enrlgrants have sailed for the
Argentine Republic. From the Linn
eriek district alone there have left
nearly five hundred, and so serious is
this movement regarded that the Arch
bishop of Cashel has issued letter in
which he solemnly conjures his coun-
trymen, as they value their health here
and their happiness hereafter, never to
set foot in the Argentine Republic,
however tempted they may be by offers
of free passage or an assurance of
comfortable homes. He says that the
nruage, being Spanish, is unknown
to them, a1s1-errely, on that ground
alone, If the people must leave the
land they love best in quest of fortune
elsewhere, they should direct their
steps either to the great Republic of
the West, where so many of their ldth
and kin live and thrive and are happy,
or to one of the free and fourishing
English-speaking colonies that own the
sway of Great Britain at the antipodes.

In Rome, on Palm Sunday,
They have the true palm,

Elsewhere these songs are sung mid olive

The books relating to the religion of
Buddha were nearly all of them written
upon the leaves of the fan palm, and by
missionaries they have been used in the
place of paper. The noble aspect of
this tree, together with its surprising
utility, has caused it to be called ''the
prince of the vegetable kingdom" and
it has been immortalized in history,
mythology and poetry.

Office the exclusive authority to print
the Democratic tickets to he used in
the approaching election, and fixed
the pro rata fee to be paid by each

October %, 1889.

We regret to learn that there Is
some contention in beat 2 between
the friends of Messrs. i. c. Smith and
Hamilton Smith as to who is entitled to
be supported as the party candidate
for supervisor. The County Demo
cratic Executive has rendered its ser
vices to hear the facts on both sides
and decide between them, but SO far,
Mr.. Hamilton Smith has declined to
obligate himself to abide the commit
tees decision. Whatever may have
been the facts that led to the cOntro-
versy, there can be no question but
that Mr.. |. c. Smith was fairly and
honorabIy nominated in the primary,
and was duly declared the nominee of
the Democratic party by the Execu-
tive committee when it canvassed the
returns and declared Hart, McNair
and the rest OF the ticket nominated,
and all Democrats should give him
their support accordingly.

WHY THEY SHOULD KICK.
The Bagging Question From
Various Points of View.
60 Editor Avalanche:

20 Editor Avalanche;
II is be hoped that the merchants
of Memphis will go slow in theirreJec-
t,on of the action of the meeting az
New Orleans in regard to the tare on
cotton. Every intelligent farmer
knows that his cotton sold as 1t Is
now, thirty pounds on a 500 pound
hale of cotton or per cent. tare, Is
taken off-not in weight, but in the
price, Now, it looks to us that the
only man that should object is the
SIMMER; for in fixing the price he can
nav he can only calculate at twenty
four pounds per bale when wrapped
in iute, and sixteen when wrapped in
cotton. AZ it is now he gets thirty
pounds tare per bale in fixing the
price, etc. m
Let us figure on it. The actual
weight of bagging and ties in nine out
of ten bales of cotton sold in Mem
phis is, wrapped in jute, not over
twenty pounds, that wrapped III cot
ton not ever fifteen pounds. AS 1t
goes now, he saves ten pounds on
every bale of cotton wrapped in jute,
and fifteen pounds on that
wrapped in cotton. So you see
why he should he the only one to
kick.
The Brookhaven leader., 1889-10-24

The argument" made by some pro-
fessed Democrats, that they can't vote
for Hart for fear that Hoskins OF Watts
one will be elected tas the case may
beg is too contemplate for any seBsi-
BILE person to consider. That sort OF
talk deceived good lot of people two
years ago and caused the defeat of
Sessions, the Democratic nominee, by
the narrow plurality of just 81 votes.
Let no Alliance man or Democrat be
caught by any such chaff this time.
The way to defeat Hoskins and Watts
both is to work and vote straight for
Hart. 1t is not the business of Dem
Ocrats to be running the coon side Of
the campaign.

During the Local Option campaign
of 'S6, Hoskins, like Watts, made a
bitter and denunciatory war on the
merchants of Brookhaven, but now,
still like Watts, he is coquetting with
the merchants for their votes and
abusing the Alliance. If the mer-
chants were simple enough to be
caught by such ehaff, which they are
not, the very important fact is over
looked that the farmer vote vastly
outnumbers the merchant vote. And
after all, neither the merchants nor
farmers (whOse interests are inter
dependency can he caught with such
transparent bait, as the "Two Or
phans" will discover on Nov. 9TH.
The Brookhaven leader., 1889-10-24

Let no man who votes or gives his
influence against a single one of the
Democratic nominees, have the cheek,
the ineffable gall, ever to call himself
a Democrat again. If a single man
on the ticket is defeated it will be by
the solid negro vote and the help of
just such miserable, white skinned
renegades, who fain would steal the
livery of Democracy to serve the Re-
publican devil in. Such men are a
disgrace to the name of Democracy.
The Brookhaven leader., 1889-10-24

The men who voted in the Demo
cratic primary and pledged to sup
port the party nominees, and now re-
fuse to do so, have no right to qaes-
tion the Democracy of any body else,
or to condemn any one for lack OF
party fealty or political integrity
