money to meet the July interest on
its bonded debt, but | trust it will
not be necessary to borrow any
more money, as the incoming rev.
enue will be sufficient to meet the
January interest and repay the
money borrowed to meet the July
interest. The State must not i'm
pair its credit. Any increased ex-
penditures that are made necessary
by any enactment of this legislat-
ure should be provided for by
changing the existing assessment
and revenue laws and increasing
the rate of taxation.
This increase should be made to
bear upon all privileges and prop
erty in equal ratio. Each class Of
citizens and every species of prop
erty should bear equally the bur
den Of taxation, and only its pro-
portionate share.
APPROPRIATIONS.
1t will be necessary to make APP
preparation to pay the expenses in
Cured by this recent trouble at
Briceville.
The bill of cost is on file in the
acknowledgements Office, and will
be presented in due form. This
bill, through the courtesy and con-
sideration Of the Nashville and
Chattanooga, and Louisville and
Nashville railroads, has been re-
duced thousands Of dollars, as these
roads declined to make charges
against the State in such an emer-
gency for the transportation of
troops.
1t will also be necessary to pro-
vide for the expenses of this extra
ordinary session and other neces-
sary purposes.
CONCLUSION.
Now, gentlemen, the subjects be-
fore you are matters Of grave and
serious import, and demand your
most earnest thought and patriotic
action. Let me urge upon you the
necessity of outstanding every mo-
ment of the time of this limited
session, and request that you avoid
putting off till the last moment bills
that demand more thought than car
be given at that time.
l trust that you fully realize te
how great an extent the future vel.
fare of the State depends upon the
result of your deliberations, anc
that you come to the duties before
you with singleness Of purpose anc
unanimity Of thought to enact such
measures as will meet the exigen
cies of the hour and rebound to thu
peace, prosperity, and everlasting
good Of the State of Tennessee.

BUSINESS MEN IN POLITICS

II am firmly of the belief" said Mr..
Cleveland in his address to the bust
ness men OF New York city few
nights ago, "that If few business
men could be substituted for profess
sional men in official places, the peo-
pie would positively gain by the ex-
change" This was said in furtherapce
of the idea that business men owe a
duty to the public, REINFORCED by one
no less important to their own inter
ests of taking an active part in political
affairs. The distinguished Democrat
was eminently correct. Much Of the
evil resulting from modern political
methods proceed from the apathy and
do-nothing neglectfulness of the very
class of men who ought to be most ac-
tire in shaping the political affairs of
the state-the very men whose inter-
ests are directly affected by ignorant,
vicious or misjudged political action.
What doth it profit the most energetic
man Of affairs if the manipulations end

STOPPING HALF WAY.

After some extended debate the
trans-Mississippi congress that re-
Gently met at Omaha got down to vot-
ing on the silver question. There were
in the congress three shades of opinion
as to the proper policy of the govern
ment with regard to silver. First were
the anti-silver men, generally men who
came from the Eastern states: but as
these states were not largely repre-
scented in the congress, they had few
votes to record. Next were the whole
hog-or-none free silver men, who
wanted the government to make dol
lars of all the silver bullion that it
could get its hands on. This class,
though stronger in votes than the anti
silver men, were still in minority.
The great majority of the meeting,
casting los votes out Of 147, favored
the free and unlimited coinage of the
product of American silver mines, but
excluding the foreign product. This
class having majority, committed the
congress to demand for legislation in
favor of the free coinage of all Ameri-
can silver ore and bullion.
If free coinage is to be resorted to
for the increasing of the stock of money
in circulation, there is no reason for
limiting it to the American product.
The mines Of this country yield about
s6O,0OO.00O worth Of silver every year,
which is not quite 81 per head of popu-
lation. Under the silver coinage law
that has been in force up to quite re-
Gently, the minis have been coming
about s3O,000,0 900 year, or half the
product OF our mines. The increase.
then, if the free coinage of that metal
is to be limited to the silver taken from
American mines, is not more than $780,
100000 year, or less than so cents per
capita per annum. 1t will be long,
long time before we will begin to feel
the good effects of larger circulation
at that rate.

New YORK. Nov. THE placing of the
big monitor Miantonomon i'll commission at
the Brooklyn navy yard created some sur
prise among officers of the navy here. They
say this looks business-like and indicates
that the navy is to supplement the failure
of diplomacy. This monitor is the nonpa-
reil of American warships. Though bear
ing the name of monitor" she is vastly
more powerful ship than any of the vessels
that came under that general title during
our civil war. In fact, the Miantonomoh
could meet the whole feet of old monitors
and destroy them all, without once being in
serious peril.
The Miantonomoh was built about the
close of the war, and was one of the most
formidable ships in the navy. She was
built in the Brooklyn navy yard, and orig
lnally her hull was of oak. She was 257
feet long, fifty-three feet broad, and drew
fifteen feet four and one-half inches Her
iron armor was bolted on over her hull. In
1872 she was rebuilt in iron. She hasobeen
in the navy yard since 1883, undergoing re-
pairs or alterations. She is now 259ls feet
long and tifty-tive and one-half feet broad,
and has twelve and one-incheS of blended
steel and iron on her sides.
There is not a ship Of war afioat in any
water which the Miantonomoh could not
meet with some chances of victory. But she
is primarily harbor defense vessel. Her
other waters, but to lie in wait for an APP
preaching foe. To such foe she would give
welcome worthy of her flag. Each of her
two Coles turrets carries two l0-inch modern
rifles. They are called the best and most
effective marine guns ever built in this.
country. They throw solid steel projectiles
weighing 500 pounds each, with an effective
fighting range of seven miles, and can hurl
them thirteen miles. Besides these big
guns she carries on her superstructure and
military mast two six-pounder and two
two-pounder rapid-fring guns, two 37-mm.
revolving cannons and two Gatlings.
The Miantonomoh can lie in the Narrows
and sink an unarmored cruiser off Sandy
Hook. She could steam out in the lower
bay and clear the coast near Coney Island
and Rockaway Beach of ordinary hostile
craft. She is not graceful. nor swift, nor
beautiful. She was built to fight, and she
can do it.
1t would take long time for her to get
to Valparaiso, but there would be no dis
counting her strength in fight if she once
got there.
