The Gas Question.

The Clarksville TOBACCO LEAF
CHRONICLE asks the question /:
"Have we got the natural gasp In
dications seem to point out that our
enterprising, thriving and fortunate
neighbor, GAINESVILLE, may have and
we hope that, upon boring, she will
prove to have, an abundant supply
of natural gas under the ground, but
their is no mistake in the fact that
she has plenty Of it above ground.
For instance, if all of the gas man
ufactured at the TOBACCO LEAF

and caught in a main, it would be
sufficient not only to run first class

A Queer Legal Complication.

New York World
Law students like to puzzle them
selves over the complicated rela-
tionships Of hypothetical case in
which a widower married young
woman, his son married the young
woman's mother and children were
born to each. But the puzzle is
nothing to the legal tangle into
which Louisiana officials have got
themselves over the lottery affair,
Lastyear the generalassembly Of
that State passed a constitutional
amendment 10y which to make the
further existence of the lottery
legal. The governor vetoed the
amendment, and the general assem-
bly, was about to pass 1t over his
veto when member died and the
necessary majority could not be
secured. If the governor had ap-
proved the amendment yor if the
generalassembly had passed it over
his veto it woull have had to be
submitted to the people for ratify-
cation, but as neither of these
things occurred, no steps were tax
en- to submit it.
The lottery people. however, and
the lawyers they own, hold that the
governors approval was unneces-
sary and that the mere passage of
the bill authorizes the submission
of the amendment. Accordingly,
one of the judges whom the lottery
company keeps in its employ at the
head of State court has issued q
mandamus requiring the State Of
fcers to order the election and sub
nit the amendment.
But in order to do that the State
officers must advertise the thing in

ing from the example Of Wash
Beavers and poor Jim CASTILLO.
Wash proved a good character
when sober by his neighbors, and
it was also made to appear that he
was dangerous and could not con-
troll his temper when drinking. He
was evidently very much intoxicat-
ed when he shot Sharpe, the con-
ductor, and it was whisky which
caused him to be disgraced by be-
ing sent to the penitentiary.
And CASTILLO, if he had not been
so stupifed with liquor as scarcely
to know what he was doing, would
probably have made his escape
from the local at Clarksville the
other day instead Of meeting with
the tragical fate that overlook
him.

The Alliance and its Influenza.

The Alliance and its Influenza
New York World.l
Senator Carlisle may or may not
be right in saying that'the Alliance
is a dying party. It is possible
that it willnot greatly figure in the
next National campaign as an OF
ganization, but there is no doubt
that the influence Of the order will
be felt at any polls whether it has
candidates or not, or whether haF-
ing them it's candidates receive few
OF many votes.
The Alliance has already served
a great purpose. 1t has given i'm
pulse and direction to the Demo
cratic doctrine and sentiment. It
has helped greatly to spread the
truth. Folies,are incident to any
great movement, especially of one
that is essentially popular. Fanat-
les and .demagogues regard &hem
as their long-looked-for opportu-
nifty and seize upon them, but if the
movements is healthy these are soon
discarded. So the sub-treasury
scheme is about dead, while as for
silver it is taking its place behind
the tariff issues and awaiting it's
turn.
The Alliance has greatly increas-
ed the number of enemies of the
monodolists' tariff law of subsidies
and bounties, of pension sharks, Of
those who live in sectional hate and
of public extravaganza. And there

PENSIONS FOR DESERTERS.
Claim Agents Can Accommodate all
BounN-Jumpers and Bummers.

Chicago Herald.l
A circular issued by a local PEN
sion claim agent contains the fol-
lowing interesting paragraphs;
eve would like to have you call
at our Office at your convenience
to consult with us regarding your
pension or other war claim bust
ness.
"The laws are now very liberal,
and much Of the red tape of past
years has been done away with.
The evidence needed is very simple.
"Soldiers or officers dishonora-
bly, discharged or dismissed from
the service can now get pensions,
Charges of desertion can often
be cancelled.
"Old, rejected cases can be re-
opened and proved up under the
new rules Of evidence"
The Herald has said on many
occasions that the time would come
when the real veterans Of the civil
war would be compelled in self
defense to call a halt to the pen
sioning of frauds and pretenders.
Is it not likely that that time is
at hand?
When charges of desertion can
be cancelled, and when men dis
honorably dismissed can secure
pensions, what guarantee does the
real soldier or the widow of the
real soldier have that the mighty
rush for pensions will not present
ly lead to default on the part Of

IT is a well-known fact that Sen

one. This is all very gratifying to
