eight feet high and the letters are to be
two and half inches in length, with the
distance in miles and the direction of

guides are furnished by the Berlin bridge

wrought iron, galvanized to prevent rust.

Diversified Farming.

Diversified farming is all right,
both practically and theoretically,
but It does not mean that farmer
must be continually trying a limit
less number of things. Too great
a Investigation of labor and inter
est will generally result i'll making
at the best only half success Of
anything, and there is no profit III
that. 1t is well to have one or two
main crops. Then diversifyenough
to provide everything that can be
needed for home consumption, and
have, if possible, some fruit or gar
den or other special crop to fall
back upon and to provide a little
money for running expenses in case
the main crops should prove a fail
ure. Diversity enough so that all
your eggs shall not be in one bask-
ct, but not so much as to compel
you to be Cor try to be) master
of all agricultural trades, for that
is an end that can not be attained
within an ordinary lifetime. 1t is
better to attempt few things and
do them well than to undertake so
many that none Of them can be
carried OH to an advantage, and lay
out no more work than you Will
have the time and strength to COM
pletely accomplish. 1t is sad
waste to plant crops that you can
mot adequately cultivate.

PROMPT ACTION NECESSARY.

PROMP RC ION NECESSARY.
While it is evident that Govern
or BUCHANANiss omewhatuncer
of his authority in dealing with the
presentsituation in East Tennessee,
he proposes to go to the limit OF his
authority to punish the law-break-
ers, and his hands should be upheld
by every man, woman and child IN
the State. Even if back Of the re-
volt there are more evidences than
have appeared on the surface of a
combination Republican-third par
ty scheme to bring reproach upon
the-Democratic party, it is a condi-
tion that must be met and dealt with
atoncebY the State officials. Much
depends on the prompt action of
Governor BUCHANAN and the civil
authorities Of Anderson County.
Their first daty is to capture as
many Of the released eonvictsaspos-
sible and to bring those who have
aided their escape before She bar of
the courts for trial Bat while
showing frmness and fearlessness
in unfolding the authority of the
State, Governor BUCHANAN should
not lose sight of the fact chat the
men who were engaged in rebellion
are his fellow citizens, and that on
the principle involved they are
right. The State can not afford to
force a civil war in the interest OF
the convict corporations. The Of
Tense of the miners can be settled in
court, without creating a reign Of
terror in East Tennessee.
The Camden chronicle. (Camden, Tenn.) 1890-current, 1891-11-13

GOVERNOR BUCHANAN has notsaid
what he intended to do in regard to
the mining troubles, hence, specula-
ton is rife on that subject No or
ders are known to have been issued
to the State military, butthe officers
acknowledge that marching orders
would not surprise them at any mo-
ment. An entire brigade is ready
forthesignal. Behindallthis there
is a feeling of uncertainty as to the
result of the appearance Of soldiers
in the mining region. The prevail
ing opinionis hattherewillbe open
resistancetothe military occupying
the valley. 1t is generally under
stood that the lessees insist on re-
suming operations at once, and I'M
less the Governor complies with the
demands, more trouble may occur
at Coal Greek at any moment.

The struggle at the ballot box in
New Orleans begins Tuesday next,
when the Democratic primaries for
delegates to Disseminating conven-
ton will be held. The lottery COM
bine with barrels of Doodle will no
doubt give the ants hard fight,
especially in New Orleans, where
they will develop great strength,
but it is expected that some wards
willsend anti delegations. Butthe
city has only 139 votes in the con-
vention out of total of 6S4, there
fore, the country parishes will have
to settle the matter, and there the
contest will be red hot. The ants
have made a hard fight, and it Is
thought that the doom of the lot
terry is sealed. Its supporters are
ashamed to show their colors, and
are now fighting under masks and
trying to dodge the issue.

The constitution of the Alliance
says explicitly that membership in
that order will in no way conflict
with the political or religious views
of its members. Isn't it about time
for Democrats who are members of
the order to enforce this provision
of its constitution, so far as they are
concerned? Inthe Southern States
they are in the majority, and should
not permit third party demagogues
toplayupon their credulity as men,
bers of the Alliance. Their pur-
pose should be to reclaim the order

PRESIDENTIAL POSSIBILITIES.

Fortunately the Democrats are
not dependent on any one State for
their candidate next year, and va
rious combinations for the national
ticket have beensuggested. Butin
making up the ticket, the doubtful
States Massachusetts, New York,
Indiana and Iowa-must be taken
into consideration, and in this con-
nection the winning qualities which
the party has developed nIowa and
Massachusetts can not be ignored,
and already BoIEs and RUSSELL are
developinga strong following in the
Eastand West Again, Illinois and
Wisconsin have been classed among
the doubtful States, and there is no
reasonable doubt that PALMER can
carry his own State and Wisconsin,
and this fact alone brings the name
of the Illinois Senator to the front
as a Presidential possibility. The
list of available names for the ma
tionalticketisa lengthy one, and the
party will not be at a loss for mar
to succeed BENJAMIN HARRISON al
the White House.
