The southern outrage shriekers are very
inconsistent Murders committed in the
most brutal manner in the north, and from
the basest motives, are treated simply as a
matter Of course-as deplorable events
liable to occur anywhere. When street
fight occurs in the south, as in the case of
FAM at Aberdeen, Mics, which can by any
sort of implication be given a political
significance. it becomes of great i'm
portance in the minds of these people.
Why is this9 Criminal statistics show
that, notwithstanding the presence of a vast
colored population in the south, the per-
centage Of crime is no greater than at the
north. There will be crime as long as there
are criminals, which will probably be as
long as the human race exists; and no place
will be free from it. 1t is unfair to make
SO much of crime in the south, and to stig-
Matte whole people as being responsible
for its commission, and at the same time
regard it elsewhere as merely an attendant
evil of human existence.

The shipment of iron from Sheffield, Ala.
to Pittsburg is one of the most striking illus
trations of the possibilities of the Alabama
mineral belt. The opening of the Tennessee
river to navigation has given cheap water
transportation, and it is altogether likely
that within short time the greater part of
the country's supply of the cruder kind of
iron will be manufactured in the Tennessee
valley. 1t will then be only step to begin
the work of manufacturing the iron into
articles for general use.

An enterprising book agent named
Thomas d. Reed made a brilliant business
stroke not long since, but later on found
himself in an embarrassing situation as one
of the results of his labor. Mr.. Reed is the
agent of the Appletons in Washington.
When the pan-American congress reached
that city ne thought the members of that
body would be glad to invest in APPLE
toms Encyclopedia of American Biogra-
ply" He accordingly laid the work before
them, with the canvasser's card attached.
The delegates were not interested in
the work, but concluding that it would be
policy to purchase it, they ordered enough
copies to make bill of about 81, 900. Not
| being satisfied with that sale, the indefati-
gable book agent made a canvass of the
delegates whom he hadn't worked on his
first campaign. On his second venture he
encountered a Mexican delegate, upon
whom he undertook to impress the value
of the work The delegate admitted that
it might be a very important work, but
stated that the sales which Mr.. Reed
had previously made were made under
misapprehension. Upon Mr.. Reed asking
for an explanation, the Mexican added that
the delegates who bought books did it be-
cause they felt that it was incumbent on
on them to do So He said: "They SUD-
posed that you were Speaker Thomas B.
Reed of the House of Representatives, and
so believing construed their purchases to be
not only courtesy to that official but
compliment to the United States" This
seems to be case of sale all around, and
it is predetermined who of the parties con-

The st. Louis Republic asks why, in view

The rocky fastnesses of Tennessee's
mountains were once famous for the
moonshining of its inhabitants.
Moonshining wa not followed for
purposes OF revenue, the product was
not intended for surreptitious carriage
to the marts Of commerce.
The business was not of gain by sales
In populous sections.
The mountaineer loved the fiery
liquid Its fragrant, euticing odor de-
lighted his senses, and its soft and oily
flow tickled his palate. He had few Of
the luxuries Of this life, and his chief
engagement and pleasure was to sip the
distilled nectarine of his grain and fruit.
Money was little known to him. The
price of drink was q fabulous sum and
far beyond his reach. His fathers made
their own store of liquor, and he came
naturally by what he esteemed his
night. Internal revenue laws forbade
his humble still and he was driven to
covert retreat, there in the solitude to
surreptitiously carry on the conversion
OF his grain into mountain dew.
Two, three or more would be ioirt
owners of the still. While some fred
the furnaces and attended the crude ap-
pliance, others would guard the avenues
OF approach, and lurking behind tree or
rock keep sharp watch for the prying
marshal.
The moonshiner had no reluctance in
the killing of revenue officer. He
was an invader of rights, IN enemy of
homes-a spy. Many a poor revenue
officer fell victim to the rifle shot of a
moonshiner.
Now all is changed. The advance of
the prospector, the miner, the boomer,
has overrun every mountain and pene-
trated every valley. Towns have sprung
up magically in the depth of the wood
land and before the march of progress,
the mine, the furnace, the sawmili, the
moonshiner has deserted his last re-
treat, and the business has fallen into
the hands of different class of people.
Gain alone is the object. They pander
to the vicious elements of society, and
offer no armed resistance to the revenue
otficials-they buy them. The old moon
sinner has passed away; he has sue
cumbed to the inevitable and lives only
In fiction.

Say, mister, I guess the 'merican
eagles fewed away" squealed a small boy
in the audience, after the pause had be-
come oppressive.
The opportune or inopportune remark
had completed Mr.. Buncombes embar-
rassment; and, while the people roared
with laughter, Mr.. Buncombe staggered
back to his seat, and mopped the per-
spiration of defeat from his brow, and
wished for few mountains to cover him
from the gaze of that giggling audience.
Pap's gone an done it now," whis-
pered Philander in Johnnys ear.
Sarved i'm right, returned johnny.
He'd no business to a-felt SO blamed big
over it."
Our esteemed fellow citizen, Mr.. Bun
combe, desires me to say that, owing to a
sudden attack Of illness, he will be un.
able to finish the interesting and eloquent
oration which we had hoped to hear, T"
said the lawyer, blandly, as he came to
the front. obligingly crooking his elbows
and spreading his coat-tails as much as
possible to screen his esteemed fellow
citizen from the gaze of the laughing
crowd.
In fact, Mr.. Buncombe was sick-sick
of public speaking, of Fourth of July
celebrations and several other things,
and giving Philander hasty directions il
regard to unhitching and driving Bess
and Doll safely home, he folded his tent
and silently stole away.
IT say, Philander; one piece o. man,'s
currant pie is worth half dozen O. pap's
speeches." whispered Johnny at the
table as he took an enormous bite of the
delicacy in question.
Tell We what, ef was nam, next
time pap makes fun O. her cos she ain't
ez smart ez he is, I'd jest ask i'm eff his
American eagle'd got back yet. Bet

The audience was good-natured one,
and seeing by Mrs. Buncombe's scarlet
cneoks ana moist eyes how thoroughly
mortified she was by her spouse's failure,
they undertook to smooth things over by
a Judicious series Of compliments on the
spicy contents Of the ciothes-basket and
otheriy neighborly attentions. succeeding
SO we'll that she spent the day far more
pleasantly than she had ever been able
to when shadowed by the eclipse of her
lords superior presence. Meanwhile
Mr.. Buncombe trudged sadly homeward;
he had been so ver-confdent Of his abil-
lty to repeat his speech verbatim that he
had left it on the table at home, and as
be entered the kitchen the fateful docu-
ment was the first object which met his
gaze.
He took it up, looking at it with vim
t1ctive eyes, and shook it as terrier
shakes rat.
