The Senate has taken up the discus
sion of the Samoan question. and some
conclusion as TO the rights Of this gov
eminent and its duties NAV be expect
ed shortly. The President has sent TO
Congress the additional correspondence
relating to the matter. In the mes
sage he states that the Secretary of
State has been informed by the Ger
man Minister that proposition from
Germany to this government for con
ference on the Samoan subject is on
its way by mail, having left Berlin on
the Goth of January. \ late dispatch
from Auckland, n. H., states that Sa-
moan advices say that the Germans
have declared war against Mataafa.
and that probably all the Samoans will
join against the Germans.
The correspondence accompanying
the Presidents message opens with the
communication from Vice Consul
Blackjack, at Apia, Samoa, dated De
cember 81, 1888, transmitting record
of current events IN Samoa. The com
munication says The political state
Of affairs, you will notice, is gradually
reaching the crisis, and American lives
and property are in the greatest danger.

The operation of removing Senator Vancs's
diseased left eye was successfully performed
Monday by DIR. Swan NJ. Burnett, Of WASH
ingtou. assisted by DIR. Walsh. DR.. Chisholm
Of Baltimore, had, in company with DIR. Bur
nett, examined the eye on Sunday, and it was
then decided to remove the eye Immediately
for the reason that its further presen &c in the
socket would be dangerous to the right eye,
which is unaffected. The Senator was placed
under the influence of an anesthetic and the
operation was completed In about in about
thirty minutes. 1t was complete success
and the Senator says he feels very much re-
lieved. He expects to be back in his reat in
the Senate in few days. The surgeons say
there is no probability Of the other eye be-
coming affected, therefore the Sen ator will
have practically as good eyesight AZ he enjoy
ed for the past year.

press cannot but be admired and APP
plauded by every one, no matter
from what section of the country,
whoappreciates generous conduct and
chivalrous actions. We have yet to
see a paper which answered the letter
i'll kind. The effort of all seems to
have been to throw the broad mantle
of charity around the letter and its
author. The treatment the State press
has given the matter gathers more
grandeur when it is noticed that the
burden of regret, both with Mrs. Can
field and her husband, as evidenced
by their published statements, was
not that she had wrongly and
naughtily criticised her hosts, but
what they chiefly deplored was that
the letter was given to the press and
made public. They admitted the
wrong, it is true, but in such a reluc-
tant way as to spoil much of its force.
The letter does not contain as much
venom as appears upon first perusal,
and we do not believe she felt as
harsh and unkind as she wrote, She
doubtless wrote the letter under the
mental depression of a rather severe
attack of indigestion, and if she had
waited few days until pure south
ern air cleared up her mind and sys-
TEN little, such letter would in all
probability never have been written

man Of superior force of character,
and possessed a most remarkable
memory. She was thoroughly con-
verSant with the early history of this
county, and delighted to entertain
friends with "reminiscences of the
pioneer days. A correspondent of

past is severed from the pushing
present by the breaking of this his

Let Justice be Done.

EDITOR STANDARD Il noticed an
article in the STANDARD of the 18th
inst, in reference to our friend, Mr..
Lee, Col. Num- and the Revenue
service, which /. think does Col.
Num- an injustice. 1t states that all
the appointees of Mr.. Hillsman in
the Revenue service united in a petit
ton to the new Collector, Mr.. Mum,
to retain Mr.. u. p. Lee, one.legged
Confederate soldier, in the service,
and that Mr.. Num- assured Mr.. Lee
that he wouldsbe retained, etc., but
later requested his Gees resigna-
ton. Now Mr.. Editor, the facts in
substance are that the appointees of
Col. Hillsman asked Mr.. Mum, the
new Collector, to be as good to Mr..
Lee, one-legged Confederate SOL
der, as Mr.. HillSman had been to
Mr.. w. S. Miller, a oae-legged
Union Soldier. Mr.. Num- replied
that Capt. Hillsman should not be
any kinder to Mr.. Miller, than he
would be to Mr.. Lee. 1t was well
understood with Mr.. Lee, before said
petition was circulated, that he was
to be transferred from the warehouse
at McMinnville to some other place
in the District, (Which l thought was
satisfactory so that when Col, Num-
asked for Mr.. Lees resignation, he
offered him at the same time a posi-
ton as Storekeeper and Gauger, which
is the position held by Mr.. Miller
This Mr.. Lee declined, in letter tC
the Collector, giving as his only rea-
son that he was physically. disable tC
perform the duties of said Office, that
he would gladly do so if he could dc
justice to the place. Col. Num- then
wrote to Mr.. Lee that if he would
accept the place he would endeavol
to keep him at suspended houses
where his duties would not be so la
porous. SO it seems to me that Col
Mum has done his full duty toward
Mr.. Lee, in fact, all that was asked
by said petitioners, and all that hi
promised to do. .......

Death Of Mrs. Elizabeth Savage.
Very Respectfully,
J. f. JONES.

Mrs. Elizabeth Savage, widow of
Mr.. George Savage, and mother Of
Col. John H. Savage, died at her
home about three and a half miles
from town, at noon on Monday, July
ODD, aged 9S years, one month and
q days, after an illness of about two
months. She was probably the old
est person in Warren county, and
was more familiar with the pioneer
history of the county than any inhab-
liant of it who survives her. She
retained her mental and physical
vigor to remarkable degree, and
was able to get about the farm and
largely direct its affairs until her last
sickness.
Mrs. Savage was born near Rod
gersville, East Tennessee, May 2jth,
1871, and was the daughter of Rod
ham Kenner, a revolutionary soldier,
and one of Kings Mountain heroes.
He was afterwards member of the
Legislature from Hawkins county.
She was united to Mr.. George
Savage, Nirginian by birth, in De-
cember 1911, and was the mother OF
ten children, only two of whom sur
vive her, Col. John H. Savage, of this
place, and Mrs. Elizabeth Davis, OF
Nashville. Her husband was Il sol
der in the war of1S12. They moved
to McMinnville in 1871, and resided
here for three years, when Mr.. Saw.
age bought the farm on Barren Forl
where they both spent the remainder
of their lives.
Mrs. Savage made profession o
religion about - years ago, anC

THE nobility of true Southern
character was never displayed with
more tact and delicacy than in an in
cident of the National Educational
Association meeting at Nashville last
week. Mrs. Flavia A. Garfield, wife
of the newly elected President of the
Association, wrote 4 letter to some
friends at home shortly after her ar
rival in Nashville, in which she criti-
cised and slurred Nashville in par
ticular, and the South and Southern
people in general. 1t so happened
that Mrs. Garfield was the recipient
of many courtesies and particular at
tentions during her stay in Nashville.
The ill-humored letter found its way
into the Topeka, Kans., Capital, and
was reprinted in the Nashville dali
lies before the departure of its author
from that city. 1t is useless to say
that it caused Mrs. Garfield and her
husband very great shame and NOR
tifcation, and they both furnished
the Nashville papers with apologize
statements and retractions. The
Nashville papers, and in fact the en-
tire press of the State, have been eX-
ceeding lenient and generous in Their
comments upon the affair, aud con.
sidering the very i'll tone of Mrs
Cdnfeld'$ letter, the spirit of the STATE

THERE is a nice little scheme now
on foot, according to current Wash
ington news, that the Southern Re-
publicans in Congress will form a
combine against their Northern breth-
rem to defeat any Northern man for
Speaker of the House, and holding
the balance Of power, will put up one
of their number for Speaker and
bulldoze their Northern colleagues
into electing him. There is just one
trouble about this little scheme, and
that is that every blessed one of said
Southern Republicans wants to be the
distinguished individual who is thus
to be boosted into power and glory.
If they would only combine on the
man they could make the tussel quite
interesting for their fellow patriots of
the North, but they wont. The Re-
publican party machinery is too well
creased for such plans to succeed, and
when the bosses waltz into the ring
and swing the party lash around
with a few loud cracks, the Southern
members will submiSsively march up
and take just what fodder is dealt out
to them.
