the farm almost without exception
are commanding highly remunera>
tive prices. But the trouble is, far
mers haven't got any of these pro-
ducts to sell, on the other hand there
are hundreds of farmers in Tennessee
buying all these articles for their own
consumption. If the government
should coin a billion dollars of silver
day free for Western mine owner,
or to stack up in its own treasury, we
fail to see where it would benefit a
farmer who has nothing to sell, but
who is buying stuff he ought to
raise on his own farm. What good
will a whole country full of money
do people who have nothing to give
in exchange for it? The farmer who
had corn and hay to sell this year
found plenty of money ready to be
exchanged for them, and we have
heard no complaint at the prices-ex>
cept from the folks who had to buy.

Queens Bench Court of cheating at a
gambling game of cards with the

Mr.. snodgrass on the Sub.Treasury

Hon. H. G. Snodgrass, Congress-
man elect from this District, in a let
ter to the Chattanooga Times thus
pays his respects to the sub-treasury
bill:
"Under the Constitution, Congress
has the right to impose taxes on the
people to pay debts, and otherwise
meet the honest demands of the gov
eminent, but it has no right to i'm
pose taxes to enable itself to loan
money, or go in partnership with
anybody in any private enterprise.
Hence this measure is clearly outside
of the powers of Congress. / think
the time has come when every man
should declare himself for Democracy
or against it.
eff this bill should be enacted into
law, it would be the greatest step
yet taken toward the establishment
of a paternal despotism; it would be
a complete inversion of the ideas on
which the government was founded.
Our fathers believed and taught that
the government should be supported
by the people and not the people by
the government. The people would
be changed from a self-respecting, in
dependent citizenship TO set of de-
pendent beggars, who would sit like
young birds waiting for a parental
government. The needier
class of farmers would receive no ben
efits from the bill; its favors are be-
slowed upon the farmers who produce
the surplus of cotton, corn, tobacco,
wheat and oats, while those who pro-
duce pork, beef, rye, barley, potatoes,
hay and the hundreds of other things
which go to make up the list of our
farm products, are not embraced
within its provisions. The benefits
of this bill, if indeed there can be
any, will be confined to special local.
tiles, while the masses of the farmers
will only receive the ruin and disas>
ter which eventually will follow.
1.-THE management of these ware
houses for the government would in
crease the already so numerous army
of Federal office-holders to do dirty
party work for the purpose of con-
tanning in power the party which
gave them place. 1t would unduly
initiate the currency once year, and
the contraction which would follow
would unsettle all business and pro-
duce widespread financial ruin.
"The deposit of the surplus in the
warehouses, as contemplated by the
bill, would enable spectators accur.
ately to estimate it, and they would
purchase the certificates of deposit, OF
the unredeemed product, and thus be
enabled to control the prices, which
they would raise or lower to suit
their purposes.
1.-THE precedent once set would open
up a road to perpetuate the class leg
islation, which has produced all the
brood of evil that now press the
American people. 1t would be pre-
cedent which would justify the pea
nut raiser, pig-iron manufacturer ant
every other business in demanding
aid and favor from the government
at is so obviously class Legislation
that the advocates of the measure dt
not claim for it the merit of beins
right or proper in itself, but under
take to justify it on the ground tina
the government has bestowed specia
favors upon certain other industrie
and classes. This argument is un
sound, unpatriotic and unmanly, ant
+, does not rise to the dignity of an ar
gument. Two wrongs cannot make
right"

EMBARRASSING IGNORANCE.
"a Lack or knowledge In Carving Often

"a Lack OF knowledge In Carving Often
Results In Trouble.
One OF the most necessary appurten-
anccs of the dinner table is Il host who
knows how to carve. Is there any
greater annoyance than IL host who
struggles, crimson with effort, to dis
JOINT poultry, tearing the frame to
pieces, and spreading bits and frag-
1nents all about on the cover? 1t should
be part of every boys education to
learn to carve. We are so busy training
girls for their future positions, which
means not only self-support, or n fitting
Tor 1t, but also n training in the social
graces, and the necessary knowledge of
household economy, that we never think
or doing more for our boys socially than
sending them to dancing school and
giving them the natural training in the
home; we leave them to acquire any
further knowledge by attrition or alb
sorption.
a recent writer to n prominent jour
nal says that he believes the lack of the
knowledge of carving has been the
cause OF more conjugal disputes than
amy other one subject. The social train
ing OF the wife making her sensitive to
the comfort of her guests, and sensi-
tive to the fitness of things in the
family life, the lack of this very neces-
ssary knowledge is constant source of
irritation. There comes to mind no.
bic gentleman, of Welsh descent who
never had large income, but who
strained all his sons and daughters to
carve, and when they went into homes
OF their own they could serve dinner,
with the aid of one servant, with the
ease and quiet of house with butler
and aids. Who of MS has not sat at
table, at some time, where the struggle
OF the host with the carving suggested
the idea that presently he would ask if
he might remove his coat? 1t is far
better, when the host has not this
knowledge, to have the carving done
outside, in buffers pantry or the kitch-
en-. 1t saves embarrassment, and when
once the servant is trained to serving
from sidcboard, the ease and comfort
that follow are ample reward for the
effort expended in teaching her.
