THE LIE PASSED.
The Mississ- lpi Senatorial Contest Getting
Hotter and H0tter-Kow Between
Barksdaie and One of Georges
Supporters.

JACKSON, Miss, July lS.-A personal
difficulty occurred between the Hon: H. d.
Money and the Hon. E. Barksdale' Al
lance candidate for Senator, during q
joint political discussion between these
gentlemen at Oxford. Major Barksdale
charged that Col. Money had been accom-
modated with large loan by Mr.. Hunt
ington, presumably in consideration OF
his support while in Congress of Hunt
ington scheme.
Col. Money acknowledged the loan, but
denounced any man us liar who would
charge that he supported the measure in
order to obtain the loan. Thereupon
Major Barksdale hurled book and struck
Money. Violent language was then in
terchanged, but finally Col. Money was
led from the hall by friends. Afterward
the difficulty was amicably arranged by
the interposing of mutual friends.

ENGLAND AT THE WORLDS FAIR.
The London Times Says 1t WIFI SurpasS all
Expeditions Previously Held.

LONDON, July 22.-The Times, in long
article on the Worlds Fuir, reviews the
growth of Importance of Chicago and
saws that it is not to be doubted that the
exhibition in many respects will surpass
all exhibitions previously held Concern
ing the advantages to English exhibitors
the Times saws that "while it is not doubt
ed that no advantage can accrue to some
traders, 1t must he remembered that the
exhibition is likely to attract visitors
from many countries, including China,
Japan, South America and Australia, and
from many markets in which American
and English manufactures are now, or
soon may be, in competition, while, even
in America itself, the perhaps only tenn
porary existence of high import duties
NAV not induce the wealthier portions OF
the community to deny themselves the
luxury of English manufacture in those
denartments in which England STANDS
without rival. The more they see the
wares England can produce, the more Ger
tain they are to become impatient at the
system which loads these wares with al
most prohibitory duties.
The Times enumerates the disadvaht-
ages arising in distance to Chicago from
England. the high cost of labor in the
United States, and from the alien labor
act sbut. il saws, it may at least be hope
fnllv remembered that the government
has sunremc control of the exhibition ana

INDUSTRIAL NOTES.


The wagon road to Whitesburg, KY, will be
completed to the top of Black Mountain by
tomorrow night and or to Whitesburg BY the
18th of August. Mr.. Horsiey, who has been
over the road says that it IS q good solid road
bed and on a good grade.
The L.. & N. is hauling good deal Of freight
over the Cumberland Dispatclf route now.
From so to 100 CARLOADS Of freight pass here
day now en- route to the East and it is expected
that within short time the L. 4. N. will de-
liver 900 cars per day to the n. & W. at
Norton.
There is q full force of iron men at work on
the furnaces now, but work in the other de-
partments has ceased.
The Jackson, KY, Hustler reports large
deal in real estate through the agency of Geo.
Ramsy, Cincinnati, who has sold for j. R.

representing syndicate of Chicago lumber
men, $4,000 acres Of timber and mineral lands
in Morgan and Breathitt counties, for the sum
of $500, 900.
The South Atlantic & Ohio Railroad Com
pany has been indicted for obstructing the

last in order to be in position to properly pre-
sent his side of the case.
Mr.. w. H. Yirgie, who has the contract for
the wood work on the Fifth street bridge was
over from Bristol on Wednesday. He said
that the bridge would be completed within two
weeks il he could get his material to hand.
Work is being somewhat delayed at present
on account Of having to wait for some castings
that are being made in Bristol.
Dir. Yirgie says that the affairs OF the Bris.
ton, Elizabethton 4 North Carolina are look
ing up and that it is more than likely that he
will secure the contract for laying the track on
that road. He already has two large contracts
in Bristol besides his contract on the bridge
and car sheds in this place. He is engaged in
building the new Market house Oh the Ten
nessee side OF Bristo, and also In building q
large addition to sullins College in the same
place.
There is good deal Of travel over the L. 3
N. now. The best evidence Of this fact i the
| prosperous business being done by the bus
lines operating between the central portion Of
the city and the L. + N. depot. Mr.. ". r.
lLipscomb, the proprietor Of one Of the lines
says that he carries on an average Of % to 80
passengers per day.

TACOAEA'S PROGRESS.
Coke Plants Being Established and q
Feeling Of Confidence Prevailing.

TACOMA, Va, July 22.-Although not in
sympathy with the Posi- from political
standpoint, still there are often qualities
possessed even by those who oppose US
that deserves our admiration. Such we
find to be the case with us in relation to
your able management of the Posi-. The
straightforward and open manner in which.
you SO frankly confess your honest con-
victions in regard to the issues of the
day-regardless of tickling the ribs Of
would-be leaders-has brought upon me
kindly feeling for your paper.
The above is not intended as Aattery--
ordinarily called taffy-for you have
reached the point at which you are proof
against all such attacks, but is merely an
expression of my true feelings and appre-
citation of well conducted and ably edited
paper-something seldom found in new
field of labor like Big Stone Gap.
Here at Tacoma, for months past, We
have experienced the same unpleasant
ness as that affecting the whole country.
Everyone has been hard up-eyeryone has
been in need of money-but, while this
is the case, most property owners here
are using every effort to hold on to their
property till money matters get easier.
Among all the new towns throughout this
section of the South, considering location,
natural resources, etc., Big Stone Gap
certainly deserves being placed at the
head Of the list; next comes our own
town-Tacoma.
Tacoma. as to the matter of beautiful
location, abundance of pure water,
healthy climate, and oil this, is not to be
surpassed By any point in the whole coun-
Etry. but we realize the fact that It takes
more than this on which to build pros

hatched out Brood of Chickens Down
to the Pool she marched with the flock
and said. Now. my Bears, will teach

fear the water. Then said the Hen:

Then she pushed them into the Water,
where they sank like Plummets, nor
did they come to the Surface again.
