NEGROES IN TENNESSEE.
A Southern Cotton Broker Talks of
Their Condition.


Mr.. l. C. Tyler, of Memphis, is at the Airing
ton hotel. For some years he has been a whole
sale grocer and cotton factor in Memphis, but
he Is looking over the Northwest with a view to
settling here. "The coal and iron of Eastern
Tennessee are bringing the state into good
deal of prominence" said he last night, sand
the South is receiving good deal of immigra-
ton.
"The negroes are getting along all right, and
my belief is that for good time to come affairs
will continue just about as they are now. The
whites can not get along without the negroes,
and the negroes can not get along without the
whites. When the negroes have enough to eat
and drink and wear they are the happiest people
on the face of the earth. They have no cares,
no anxiety. negro will spend his last nickel
at night and sleep quietly. The next morning
he will get up and get food from the family
where his wife or daughter is cook
ing. He has thought of the
morrow, is thoughtless and improvident, but
still he makes good servant Nine out of ten
of the blacks have no political ambitions and
are perfectly content to leave the MANAGEMENT
| of affairs in the hands of the whites
"The troubles you read about between the
| whites and blacks are only drunken rows in
| which the worst of both races are equally to
| blame. You have saloon fights in which the
people OF a race naturally hold together, bu,
that argues nothing for the general condition OF
| your society. So it is with u.s. The negroes nm.
| derstand the whites, and the whites the
negroes"

"Take the subject Of drinking water for instance.
What sensible man woman who ever held

Even a near-sighted person thst il 10 full of

wonder 1t is impure? Is Ii any wonder people get
sick from drinking it. Some people boil the water
and while this may XIII the live germs it does not
remove them nor remove the vegetable matter

poisonous. The safest way for any one to do is to
mix little pure whiskey with the water, and thus
wholly counterfeit all evil effects which may be in
any water, however impure Doctors advise this
and science confirms IT, But only the purest
whiskey should be used. and Duffy's Pure Malt is
admitted both by doctors and scientists to be the
purest of all modern whistles. Besides terrifying
the system against disease it also tones up, makes
