There are persons who must be treated
not only mildly but at long intervals and
there are persons with, perhaps, the same
erful and frequent applications: to distin-
guish between these classes and the various
gradations that lie between the extremes of
tolerance and of susceptibility is the first
duty, and oftentimes the hardest study of
the electropathic specialist.

ton sufficient to make creditable
display of the States products and re-
sources at the Columbian Exposition
to be held at Chicago in 1898. Ten>
nessee can put an exhibit at Chicago
which will compare fayorably with
that of any other State in the union,
and it should be done. Tennessee
has wonderful diversity of mineral
and agricultural products, and can
well be proud to show them to the
world. The State should make a
liberal appropriation for this purpose,
and this should be supplemented by
county and city appropriations, but
all funds for the purpose should be so
hedged about as to insure their use
solely and legitlmately for the pur-
pose appropriated. None of it should
be squandered in fancy salaries to
sinecure officials. Competent men
should be employed to manage the
exhibits, and they should be well
paid for services rendered, but the
funds should not be wasted in paying
fat sums to a lot of worthless fellows
for doing nothing.

Both houses of the Tennessee Gen

to his dictates upon all issues. The
following officers had been elected up
to Thursday night:

A Heavy Mortgage.

KNOXVILLE, Jan. G.-The East
Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia Rail-
road Company yesterday filed a
mortgage in this county given to the
Central Trust Company Of New York,
for $15,OO0,0O0. The deed recites
that the funds are to be used to build
extensions, branches, etc., and to
double-track the main line. 1t also
provides that the funds may be used
to retire the bonds issued in 1887.
The bonds run fifty years and bear 6
per cent in gold. The mortgage is
on all property of the company.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Mr. Har-
rison and Mr.. Blaine, in their efforts
tomake capital for the republican
party and to aid Mr.. Harrison in
securing the republican nomination
next year, seem to have made a bad
mess of the .Behring Sea trouble with
Great Britain. They have placed the
United States in most undesirable
position where we shall either have
to fight England or become the
laughing stock of the world. The
British minister has, it is said, in
formed Mr.. Blaine confdentially that
his government will fire upon any
American vessel that attempts during
the coming sealing season to search
or sieze vessels engaged in sealing
in BehringSea under the British flag.
This information has, it is believed,
caused Mr.. Harrison to delay sending
in to congress the correspondence be-
tween Mr.. Blaine and the British
foreign Office, and his message of ex>
PLANTATION, all of which was ready
week ago. Mr. Harrison is perfectly
willing that his administration
should he the cause of stirring the
anti-British feeling, but hesitates to
go.to Congress for an appropriation Of
money for a real war with England.
He fears that Congress might
brush aside the administration theo.
ries and authorize the arbitration
which it has refused. Certainly we
are not in any condition at
the present time to fight Great Brit
ain upon the water, where we would
have to fight, and the idea of an
American backdown is not a pleasant
one to contemplate. There may be
some Congressional music on this
subject a little later on.
1t is generally conceded that the
joint resolution offered by Senator
Carlisle, authorizing the appointment
of three commissioners to act
with like numbar appointed
by the Canadian government in in
vestigating the commerce of the two
countries and devising means to pro-
mote and increase it, is step in the
right direction, and yet Mr. Carlisle
says he is certain that republican
Senators will not allow ii to be acted
upon. He says he intends offering il
again at the next session.
The republicans who have beer

Political Paragraphs.

The factions on the republican
side of the Senate are almost as nu-

there seems to be no disposition
among them to "get together"

who have led the republican party

ment.

bic for their deaths, as it has been by
reason of the negligence or open con-
nivance of the agents of the govern
ment that the Indians came into pos,
session of rifles and ammunition
which enabled them to kill the SOL
diers. How long shall this farce be
kept up? The Indian spends all Of
his time, when on the reservation, in
preparing to kill the whites
and the whites furnished the means
to do it. Turn the Indians over t
the Army and they will be kept in
a proper state of subsection, unles:
they agree to go to work like Other
people, which they will never do
But whatever is done, it should b.
made impossible for the entire brood
of Indians to kill any more white
men. That much the people have
right to demand.
