Speaker Crisp has completed his
committees and a list of the various
chairmen will be found on first page.
A special to the Banner has the fol-
lowing to say of the disposition made
of the Tennessee delegation:
"The Tennessee delegation is we'll
taken care of on the committees.
McMillin on the Ways and Means,
Washington, chairman of the Com
mittee on Territories, one of the inn
portant committees of the House and
one which will have much to do this
session, and Pierce on the Coinage,
Weights and Measures, which
equals craftsmanship of one of the
smaller committees.
"Mr. Enloe goes on the War
Claims Committee and Postoffice.
He has been on the War Claims
Committee before. Mr.. Patterson
goes on the Commerce Committee
and Revision of the Laws, splendid
committees for one who wants to
make reputation. Mr.. Cox goes on

Mr.. Snodgrass takes place on Pa.

goes on War Claims, of which he was
once clerk, He also goes on Pen.s
sions and Expenditures in the Post
office Department. Alf Taylor
takes the late Mr.. Houk's place on
Elections and goes on Invalid Pen
sions. No delegation in Congress
has Jared better than the Tennessee
ans, and if they fail make names
for themselves it will be each ones

Mills Not Removed or Degraded.

The mugwump journals are la
menting as the greatest calamity
that could have befallen the Demo
cratic party the removal or the
displacement of Mr.. Mills from
the craftsmanship of the Ways and
Means Committee by Speaker Crisp,
just as if Mr. Mills held that place
by natural born right over all other
Democrats and there was no other
man in Congress capable of discharg-
ing that duty. Mr.. Mills is not
chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee to be removed, retired,
displaced or degraded. Mr.. Mills
did occupy that position in the Fiji
tieth Congress, from which emanated
the Mills bill that the Democrats
went to battle on in 1883 and were
defeated. Mr.. Mills appointment
expired with that Congress, and Mr..
Reed, being elected on different
policy, did not see proper to reap.
point Mr.. Mills as chairman of that
committee, but gave Mr.. Mckinley
the place. Mr.. Mills made his old
bill or policy an issue in the Speaker,
ship campaign and was defeated by
Mr.. Crisp on different policy, and
consequently is not the man to lead
the Democratic majority. He sulked
and declined to accept the appoint
ment unless he could name his own
colleagues and carry out his own
policy, and to place him at the head
of that committee in Difference to the
minority would not only be degrad-
ing to the Speaker, but would defeat
the party policy. Mr.. Mills is simp-
ly the defeated and not the removed
or degraded, beyond his own acts in
sulking and refusing to work with
the majority after different policy
from his own has been decided on.

If the Governor understands, as he
probably does, that the people OF
Tennessee will soon get tired OF
maintaining a standing army, he
will give the military instructions to
promptly hunt down and Jail every
leader or man prominently connected
with the Briceville mob, arson and
robbery, and every one known to
give advice or countenance to the
proceedings, and make it possible to
maintain law and order without the
military or extra guard. The sheriff
and other civil officers of Anderson
county also need hauling over the
Goals. If the Governor goes at the
business in this kind of way he will
greatly establish himself in the con-
tidence of laW-abiding people.

Fine Tobacco Samples.

Owing to the unfavorable weather
for handling tobacco, there was only
about ninety samples shown at the
Union Warehouse fair last Tuesday.
There would doubtless have been
between 200 and 300 samples on ex-
hibition had the weather been favor
able. The samples shown, however,
were pronounced by the buyers gen.
orally a very fair lot of samples.
Ben Gold, the veteran buyer, pro.
nounced them the best he ever saw.

WHAT PEOPLE TALK ABOUT.

One of the strangest things in the
world to reader OF bible history is
the fact that there is nothing that
proves concusively that the Savior
OF the World was born on the 18th
day OF December. The bible does
moi say so, nor can it be verified by
any line of circumstantial evidence.
His birth has been celebrated by the
world for ages upon the 18th day
of December, but no man claims to
have conclusive evidence that this
was His natal day.
Even the Eastern countries, with
in whose bosom the place Of that
sacred birth is centrally located,
knew nothing of the date for centu-
ries. In fact the people of that coun-
try for years and years celebrated
January 9th as Christmas. The
churches of Rome, however, conclud-
ed to change this date, and fixed
Dec. 25th as the day. 1t was trans
mitted from Rome to the Eastern
church and from thence to the entire
world.
Government records of the taxing
or census of Cyrenius, said to be hid
den away in the imperial archives at
Rome, seen by no one, and so ancient
that the mere whispers of tradition
will hardly reach them, are all that
the Romans based the selection upon.
They assume that Zacharias was High
Priest at the time of the Savior's birth,
that the annunciation was made to
him upon the Day of Atonement,
which was in September. Counting
from this, critics make the birth OF
John in June, and as Christ was six
months younger than John he must
have been born in December. This
has all been knocked in the head,
however, and wise men everywhere
admit that they do not know when
the Savior was born.

of presents to-day, outgoing ard in

ployes very hard to handle them.
1t would astonish the average citizen
to see to what proportions the GUS
tom of giving presents at Christmas
is running. The postoffice is also
given as much as it can do. An old
gentleman said in the hearing of a

had been growing since he was a
boy, and that he believed it had al
most reached the top notch now.
