No North or South Side.

II is a mistaken sentiment prevail
Ing that in choosing our represent
atives for the Legislature and should
come from the north side and one
from the south side OF tn river. II
may be all we'll enough when good
men alike are presented from both
sides. But we should know no north
side or south side in this matter. II
Is all one county, and a south side
man cannot represent the interest OF
his side without representing both,
and vice versa. We should select
our best men to fill the places, nc
matter which side they come from,
or If they both come from the same
district as for that. 1t Is the qualifi-
cations and the efficiency of the men
and the principles they represent that
people should look to if they want
the best results in legislation. Look
ing to sections and localities for rep
resentative men has brought much
inefiiciency and corruption into our
public affairs. The country has cen
teled to New York for either a pres
idential or vice-presidential candi-
date until New York thinks the
country can't survive unless that
State controls affairs, and therefore
New York undertakes to control both
parties and has become notoriOusy
corrupt and unreliable in politics,
Wall street controlling the govern
ment. The same sentiment prevailed
in Tennessee in reference to govern
or. -Four years ago East Tennessee set
her claim to furnish the man. The
demand was yielded to and they
gave us Bob Taylor.
Next came Memphis setting up
the claim that West Tennessee had
the right to furnish the next
governor, and the farmers, who
have had enough of that sort OF
thing, sat square down on all
such pretenses, and they were
right. Now let us have no south
side or north side in this matter. If
the south side presents the most eff.
Client men, let us take them it makes
no difference from what part of the
county the candidates may come, we
want the most available men, who
can inspire confidence and harmonize
all Of the elements, men capable Of
making creditable representatives,
and strengthening the incoming ad-
ministratiOn.

Let Him be Scratched.

The Nashville Review, the Repub
lican State organ, condemns ALT.
Taylor for voting for the Force bill,
and his constituency ought also to
condemn him. The Review denies
that the convention, or that Tennes-
see Republicans endorse the measure,
with rawlings stronger that Peter de-
MED his Lord, and charges All. with
the responsibility of having the
hateful resolution thrust upon the
convention for an endorsement of his
vote for the bill. Master Workman
Powderly, who votes with Republi-
cans, advises that the names Of Con
gressmen who voted for the bill he
published that voters may scratch
them. viii the Review advise the
scratching of ALT. Taylor?

the action of the waves as they advance

A SENSATIONAL TRAGEDY.
What Came of Flirting with 6
C0lOred Conc b man.

JACKSONVILLE, Ill, January For q
long time the affairs of Miss Keener and
Nathan Pssten, her colored coachman,
have been the gossip of the town. Some
time ago Pasten went to Iowa, and while
there Miss Keener sent the negro a large
amount of valuable property. This morn
ing Pasten returned and proceeded to Miss
Keener, where he was met by her
brother, Tom Keener, who ordered the
negro away. AS Pasten turned to go,
he met Miss Keener and young man
named Bancroft. Without warning, the
negro drew pistol and began shooting,
first at Bancroft, who was twice wounded,
and then at Miss Keener, who promptly
returned the fire, both being wounded.
Kiss Keener was shot through the lungs
and hips, and is in very critical con-
dition. Pasten was shot in the arm and
head. At this juncture the negro was
dubbed and disarmed by crowd drawn
to the scene. Pasten is in Jail, but 60
terribly injured it is thought he cannot
recover. 1t is said Miss Keener can
scarcely live through the night.
The Keener family is one of the most
prominent in Jacksonville, the elder
Keener having been engaged in the COM
mission business at Naples and Mere.

NORTHwEsTERN RATE WAR.
It will Probably Extend to the
California Lines.

California Lines. .
SAN Francisco, January Tile rate
war among railroads in tho Northwest,
which has now extended as far as
Oregon and Washington, is causing much
talk in railway circles here. The war is
the result of the dissolution of the West
ern States Passenger Association. The
csntral and southwestern lines are not
yet affected, but the impression seeme to
be general here that rate.cutting must
soon be inaugurated by them. 1t is pub
licly stated that the, Union Pacific is
offering a cut of Sc from here to Chi
cago, and that a like reduction or more
is probably being made from Chicago to
California points. Representatives in
this city of eastern lines say the South
ern Pacific Company will have to meet
whatever cuts the Northern Pacific rail-
road makes to Oregon and Washington.
and if low cuts are made, immigration
to California will be great this season.
CHICAGO, January THE Northwest
ern passenger rate war is spreading. A
reduction went into effect today, making
the rate from Chicago to st. Paul SO,
first class, and ST. second class, by all
lines. Furthermore the Chicago
and Northwestern, in connection
with the Union Pacific. reduced
its rates to Montana and northern
Pacific Coast points, by way of Omaha
to meet competition by way of st. Paul
This is done, however, without disturb
ing Missouri river rates. The fight be-
tween the 500 line and Burlington and
Northern, on passenger business from St
Paul to eastern points. may involve some
of the lines leading eastward from Chi
cago. To avoid this meeting of the
Central Traffic Association will be held
on Thursday.

JUDGE LAIDLAw, the Police Justice OF
Oakland, whose court has just been
squelched by decision of the Supreme
Tribunal declaring that it had no legal
existence, is out of pocket fifty dollars by
an act of severe and heroic justice of
which he acquitted himself a few days
ago. Entering his court one morning,
he ordered the Clerk to enter up fine
against. .himselffcr having violated the law
in getting drunk. The Clerk did so and
the Judge handed over the fine. Now
that this inexorable Judge finds that he
had no legal right to occupy the bench,
and that his acts were all extra-judicial,
he is kicking himself sore for being so
precipitous in his conscientious admins
tration of justice-especially to himself.

ST.. LOUIS, January THE sudden
advent of rain. snow and sleet has trans
formed the business section of st. Louis
into a grotto of scintillating icicles.
Telegraph, telephone and electric light
wires were breaking frequently
today under the weight of
ice, and pedestrians were busy
dodging. The danger of breaking limb
on the sleety walks was not half so near,
to the public mind, as the fear of death
from an electric shock. Now and then a
wire, ssgging beneath heavy weight of
ice, would touch another wire. Blue
sparks would fly for a moment, and
a shivering blue fame succeed until
the fueing of the wires caused them to
part and fall to the sidewalk. Then the
crowds would scatter, falling over each
other i'll their anxiety TO reach place of
safety. The police are watching for
fallen wires. The electric light and tele-
graph and telephone companies have men
out repairing the damage as rapidly
az possible, but the danger is still very
great. Two street car horses were killed
and their heads nearly burned off this
morning by an electric wire which
dropped across the track as the car came
along. There were fifteen passengers on
the car, and they scrambled out in every
direction, but no one was hurt.
