IN his speech at Hurricane, Senator
Harris said he had warm personal
feelings for Governor Buchanan, but
that he had committed one sin he
could never forgive him. The sin OF
personal ingratitude and political
treason. He had been promoted
from an humble station to the highest
office and honor in the State. This
honor was conferred upon him by
the Democratic party, and yet he
has drawn his dagger against the
people and the party who hOnored
him. The Senator might have gone
further and with like truth said that
the people who vote for Buchanan
are as reasonable as he. He is
attempting to turn Tennessee over to
the Republican party, and those who
vote for him are his aiders and
abettors. They should all be marked
and remembered. And they will be.

TROTWOOD'S MISCELLANY,
The Bill Poster.

This is the time of the year for the
theater snipe TO appear in our midst
He is generally a duck-legged gentle
man who carries bucket OF tough
wheat paste in his right hand and
bundle of posters in his left, while he
leaves his hand grip and a soiled
shirt at the hotel. His chief busl-
ness in life is to decorate tho sides OF
our buildings and desecrate the IN
terror of our bar-rOoms with lot oil
posters, wherein three or four most
beautiful formed women are about to
be eaten alive by a goggle-eyed
william who yields dirk yard long.
The williams eyes are as big as mars,
when, at his nearest point to the
earth, ard Just before Mars decided
that, on account of rumor of cholera
in New York he would not come any
nearer; while the look of fear on the
faces of the fair women as they ad-
vance a right foo and throw up ooth
hands to a protecting heaven, is
enough to make a sterotyped stage
horror thing only to be dreamed OIL
along with 1.-THE devil and his angels"
These kind of posters like these
kind of plays should be ciassed as
public evils and a penalty attached
for posting them upon our buildings
or playing them in our town. A
woman's picture in all the parapha-
MALTA Of tights is not the kind of pic
ture our boys and girls should have
thrust on their sight every time they
turn a corner. The play that is re-
Iieved of this monotony chiefly by
the antics of a double-dyed william
and the friskiness of female Of short
skirts and virtue is not needed here
to educate the theatrical taste of the
youth of the town,

To BE- Called in Three Wceks-HOw the
Wholesale IndictiRg Game About.
PITTsBURG, Oct. l3.-There are no ac
tual new developments today in the
court cases growing out of the Home
stead lockout and riot, but much inter
esting gossip is afoat. 1t was reported
at the court house Wednesday that the
first of the cases against the locked-out
men would be called within three
weeks.
1t has not yet been decided which to
call first, but the murder trials will be
had separately. The treason cases will
be tried in a bunch, as will also the riot
and conspiracy cases.
1t is reported on the authority of one
of the attorneys for the lOcked-Out men
that the indictments by the grand jury
were the result of q compromise in that
certain jurymen positively declined to
return true bill in the treason cases
unless Carnegie, Frick and other OIL
Gals and Pinkertons were indicted for
murder and conspiracy, proposition
which was finally agreed to,
District Attorney Burleigh repudiates
a story printed here and telegraphed
broad east over the country, to the effect
that Chief Justice PaxsOn would do a
fatherly act with the Homesteaders in
the treason cases-have the thirty-two
members of the celebrated advisory
board plead guilty, and then read them
a little lecture, after which he would
discharge them. The report is wholly
unfounded.
1t was stated Wednesday that it had
not been officially settled that Chiei
Justice Paxson would try the treason
cases, but it is the popular impression
that he will do so.

Hot SPRINGS, Ark, Oct. 13.-Reports
received from Scott county, in a wild
region seventy-five miles northwest OF
this city, are to the effect that the
mountaineers are wildly excited over
the discovery of gold mine.
The story of this discovery is that q
hunter was led to the spot by his dog,
which had chased his game into a cave
in the mountain. While the hunter was
exploring this cave several nuggets were
discovered.
The people f1ocked to the spot and are
now guarding the hole in the ground
with shotguns to prevent any one from
jumping the claim.
This hole in the mountain is believed
to have been made by Spaniards who
are known to have carried on mining
operations somewhere in these noun
tains years ago.

ENTICING THEM OFF.
Ignorant Negroes Being Carried TO
Indiana by Republican Schemers.
The Plan Is Neatly Laid and is Being
Quietly Done.

NASHVILLE, Oct. 13.-[Special.I-
There is a gang of hired schemers ana
scalawags on the Indiana State Re
publican Club, invading Tennessee.
They have not yet come to the mid
die section of the State, but nave
quietly and neatly carried ont their
well-Iald plans in Humphrey, Perry
and Benton counties.
On last Saturday, droves of negro
men could be seen leaving the helds
and their homes in Humphrey
county, and on being aske1 why
they were leaving, they replied that
they were going to Illinois to WORK
on a railroad. This story was not
credited and one negro was finally
induced to tell. He said that three
we'll dressed men came TO him while
he was blowing in the field and
asked him which party he favored
for President. He replied, Harrison
One of the men then told him to be at
the nearest railroad station at GER
tain hour, and he would be. carried
North where he would be paid a
salary of 50 per day to work on rail-
road. The other negroes are supposed
to have been enticed off in TIE same
manner.
The little game shows Ito what
straits the State Republican Club are
put to to carry Mr.. Harr.son's own
State for him.
News also comes to this city from
Perry and Benton couuties, that tbs
negroes are leaving those places and
cannot be induced to stay. Every
good Democrat should be on guard IL
his county and prevent an invasion
| by the schemers.

FORCE BILL THE ISSUE.
Every True Southern Man Re cOgnizes
This to be a Fact.

Every True Southern Man Re cOgnizes
This to be Fact.
Mr.. EDITOR:-I find, in talking to
the Third partyites and Republicans,
that they say the Force bill and ne
gro domination is a political trick.
But!sir, | regard it as the issue in tbs
South and the one above all others
that the true Southern man should
keep nearest his heart OF hearts for
the sake of those to come after MIN.
White supremacy in the South is
no mere political catch phrase. 1t is
an ever present, living issue which
must be recognized because 1t Is the
cornerstone of the SOuth's social
structure. Ignore il and mOngrel
government, and social chaos Will be
the result.
This is no mere speculation, for we
have had some very bitter, and
perience for the last Twenty-Five
wears and especially during the re-
construction period, from tie effect
of which We have not yet recovered.
There isn't single leader in the
Third l,arty in the South who has
heretofore affiliated with the Demo
cratic party, who would not say, II
he would speak the candid truth,
that white supremacy is the all i'm
pOrtant and vital question with us.
The editor of the TOiler was OF that
opinion a few short months ago; so
was Mcdowell and his imitator,
Governor Buck. They declared the
South solid on this one question and
that every true Southern man would
remain SO.
They have changed their minds
vet the very facts they asserted are
living and will live long after these
men are forgotten.
Mcdowell has changed his mind
and of course Buck had to go with
him, for whithersOever cp1well
goeth. Buck g0eth, and when Buck
is buried on the Sth of November,
there Mcdowell will be buried by
his side, and there will be but few
mournera at the funeral services.

A Supposed Corpse Enters a Protest
Against Being Buried.
GAINESVILLE, Tenn, Oct. 13.-Much
excitement was caused at the village of
GAINESVILLE, Tenn, over the peculiar
death of A. D. Smith, prominent citi-
zen. Last Monday week he apparently
died, and was shrouded. Tuesday,
while his funeral services were being
conducted, a noise in the coffin was
heard. The cover, which was not
fastened securely, was burst off and
Smith sat upright in his coffin. He was
taken home to bed, and, after several
hours, seemed to have recovered from
the strange experience, when he de-
clared that he had visited heaven, where
he saw many white spirits, and some of
them he recognized as friends he had
known on earth. They shook their
heads when questioned, pointing to a
large book lying open. He looked and
saw written the names of himself and
living children, though his name, he
said, was partially erased. He told
other wondrous stories of his strange
experience, and their recital drew
scores of curious people to his home.
Smith lived on in apparently good
health until night or two ago, when
he suddenly was taken worse and cried
out. Il see them" and fell back dead.
