The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1892-06-09

THE following from Mr.. BLAINE's
Twenty Years in Congress is inter-
esting reading just now;
"Mr. Polk had evidently not conceal
ed his distrust from the outset and had
numbered his offer OF a Cabinet posi-
ton with conditions which seemed de-
rogatary to the dignity ofMr. Buchanan
conditions whicha man of spirit might
we'll have resented. He informed MI.
Buchanan that as he should take no
part himself between gentlemen of the
Democratic party who might become
aspirants to the presidency he desir.
ed that mo member Of the Cabinet
should do So He indeed expressed
himself to Mr.. Buchanan in a manner
so peremptory as to be offensive !:
Should any member of my Cabinet
become a candidate for the Presidency
or Vice Presidency OF the United States
it will be expected on the happening,
of such an event that he will retire
from the Cabinet Remembering
that Madison, Monroe and John Quin-
cy Adams had each been saminated
for the Presidency while holding the
position of Secretary Of State in the
Cabinet Of HE predecessor, Mr.. Polk
was attaching q new and degrading
condition to the incumbency of that
Office"

Their "open Grave"

We may expect all sorts OF reports
from the n|ews.centers as to the nature
and cause OF the explosion occasioned
by the dynamite resignation of The
Secretary of State. AS usual, the man
who has exceptional opportunities to
know whereof he speaks is around,
and it may be that both parties to the
controversy will find it to their salts
faction, or interest, to give out special
versions of the affair. differing, of
course, in every essential particular,
That Mr.. Blaine and Mr.. Harrison are
as opposite as the poles in character
and temperament that there has been
between them much elashing OF
opinions and personalities that mutu-
al friends have i%nterposed their kind
ly Offices to thicken the already mud
died steam of social intercourse and,
finally, thai the ever~disturbing petit
coat has appeared upon the scene as a
red-rag Haunting itself before the eyes
OF two infuriated and tortured antago-
nists, it requires no dispatch, marked
"%authentic," to assure us, and no Off
cial diagram TO elucidate.
So much has been apparent for a
long time.
But none of these circumstances ex-
plain the suddenness of the secretary
in throwing up his great office at a
moment so we'll timed to affect the
action OF the assembling National Re-
publican Convention. That can
alone be ascribed to madness, or de-
sign. 1t is either the act of a mind
wholly incapable OF responsible action,
or it is an act Of deliberate perfidy.
Mr.. Blaine may have been forced
to it but, if so, it should have come
before or after a moment so pregnant
with destinies. He may, indeed, have
meant it as a last, desperate measure
of extrication from a position which
had become intolerable, but if that
it should have accompanied by
another message, addressed to Mime
apolis, and equally imperitive, COM
handing the disuse Of his name as a
candidate. To leave the case where
it is, to precipitate a question SO mo-
meutus, and it may be added so disas-
trous, into the counsels or rather the
passions of a national convention,
means imbecility or treachery and in
PRODUCES to our politics for the first
time an issue which has shaken dy-
nasties N other lands, that Of insanity
on the one hand and conspiracy on the
other. =
The Republicans are rendered by Mr.
Blaine, or by Mr.. Blaine's keepers
powerless to escape this issue. Moth.
ing else, beyond the mere individual
likes and dislikes OF the parties to the
controversy, is involved by it; and
in case Mr.. Blaine is nominated, al
other questions will be set aside, and
the one important subject Of his men,
tai responsibility will be discussed be.
tween now and November, absolutely
requiring of Mr.. Blaine, as its only
solution, personal participation in the
campaign, and a such personal parti-
!, cipation is conclustively to show that
he is not an imbecile, but only a trail
tor.
A stronger man than anybody pre-
tends Mr.. Blaine to be might quail be
fore an ordeal like this. Worse mer
: than anybody suspects Mr.. Blaine'i
managers OF being might pause before

Johnson City is located 100 miles
Northeast of Knoxville at the inter-
section of the two great trunk lines,
the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia, and the Charleston Gin
cinnati and Chicago Railroads and
at the termini If the East Tennes-
see and Western North Carolina

boro Railroad has beet chartered
and a preliminary survey made, 1t
is an extension of the Richmond
and Danville line from Greensboro

been organized.
The Southern and Western Air
Line is building from Shelby, N.
c., to Cranberry, to connect with
our East Tennessee and Western

1t is not a speculative paper town,
but it is a substantial young city ;
one whose progress within the past
two years bears favorable compari-
son with any other city in the

EABRiS0NS CHALLENGE 70'THE SOUTH

The Rochester Post-Express, a Repub-
can newspaper, prints the following dis
patch from Washington
President Harrison has said to a friend
IN private conversation at the White
House,:
II am willing to accept the issue laid
down by the Democratic leaders.
II am willing to go before the country
as friend of human liberty.
81 am willing to go before the country
as a defender of the constitution.
eff the Democratic party can afford to
so before the people crying aloud for the
suppression of the suffrage of black cit
liens in the South; if they can afford to
stand as champions of the violators Of the
constitution and laws;if they can endorse
the wholesale slaughter, intimidation and
murder, in order to uphold the Demo
cratic party, can afford to accept the
issue.
Il stand before the people as opposite of
everything Democratic The Democrat
ic party stands committed to free trade
and Southern outrages. That is their
platform pure and simple"
If Mr.. Harrison is correctly quoted, this
declaration should make it impossible
for any seli-respecting white man in the
South to turn against the Democratic
party and its candidates in the Novem-
Der election. The declaration is not only
a vicious SANDER Of the Southern people,
but it is an avowed purpose to use all
the power at his command, if reelected,
to wrest from them their State govern
menta and put them under negro con
troll.
1t is almost inconceivable that man
called to occupy the high Office of Presi-
dent should be guilty of entertaining
sentiments SO vile, and purpose Sc
threatening to the liberties of the PEG
pie.
His challenge viii be accepted by the
Democratic panty, and we have strong
faitha that many thousands of patriotic
citizens in the North who are not Demo
Gratis, will join in repudiating and over
whelming the candidate and the party o
the infamous Force Bille-Columbus En-
quirer-Sun.

Bill Arp's Philosophy.

1t don't pay to get mad about anything
much less about politics. Getting mad
cheats a man out of his time. He can
loose day, or two Gays, or even week
thinking about it and fretting over it,
and that interferes with his business and
deranges his digestion, and makes his
family unhappy He had better 90
dead for awhile and come to life again.
Getting mad is the poorest way to get
even with an enemy ever tried. 1t
don't pay worth cent, and always
makes a man lose his own self-respect.
Now a man may get mad with himself
for being fool and it would do him no
harm. In fact, it may do good, for it's a
sign OF repentance. [ knew young
man to go to a church far and the girls
honey-fugled six dollars out of him and
he went home and addressed and tied
one arm to the bedpost and whipped
himself with the other, and as he would
cut himself around thesleg he would say:
: GU go to another church fair! You
let them girls fool you out of your mon
ey again! You pay ten cents for every
fool letter they stick at you! You give
half dollar for little dab of ice cream
III learn you some sense, l will:' and
as he talked to himself he kept the
switch going lively and would dance up
and down just like he was another fell
low Now thatIsa good idea. When a
man makes fool of himself and goes
ripping around let him tie himself and
give himself a good whipping, and then
take fresh start in the morning. If
man gets in fight with another man he
might accidentally get whipped, and
then everybody would hear about it.
but if he whips himself all by himself it
will do more good, and nobody would
ever know anything about it.

A MATTER or JUSTICE.

A few days ago, in their general pre-
sentiments, the grand jury of Muscogee
county called the attention of the public
to practice in courts that did not seem
just. They were right. There is no
plausible reason why lawyers word
should be regarded by judges as being
more veracious than that of any other
class of citizens. If making lawyers
swear that they or their colleagues are
too i'll to represent their clients will tend
to lessen continuances, for the sake of
justice and a long suffering public let's
have law passed to that effect
This is what the Muscogee county
grand jury says:
We have been taught to consider the
law as "Blind Goddess" who has no re-
spek of persons or classes, who exacted
of each of her subjects the same Difference
and respect, and who accorded to each
exact and impartial justice; we know,
however, that in many Instances she
recognizes a lawyers simple statement
as equal to the solemn oath of other
men. We refer particularly to requests
for continuance of cases, where the bare
announcement by the lawyer that he or
his colleague would be too sick to try a
case, is considered by a court as good
and sufficient grounds for such continu-
ance, when Bible-bound oath or ply
sician's certificate would be required
from any but lawyer. This plan may
be in accord with legal ethics, but it
seems to us widely at variance with JUS
tice. While we admit that this class of
our fellow-citiAens are greatly our supe-
riors in legallore, we are not prepared
to acknowledge that admission to the
bar eXempts men from human frailtv.
and believing thus, we request our re-
personalities in the legislature to seek
an enactment of law by which all class
es and professions can stand before all
courts on terms of absolute equality.
This is one OF the most fruitful of all
causes for the claws delay" which has
been the theme of censure for ages. The
maintenance of this custom, it seems to
us, would prove the justice of the charge
against lawyers in holy writ, "Woe I'M
to you, ye lawyers for We lade men with
burdens grievous to be borne. ans We
yourselves touch not the burdens with
one of your fingers.

IT seems that Andrew Carneoie's re-
duction in the wages Of the laborers en-
ployed by his immense iron and steel
works, has developed into fight on the
Southern manufacturers. The COMPANY
Is now vast monopoly, with a capital
OF s25, 600 900, and employs 40, 900 hands.
Altogether there are about 400 mills in
the combine, employing about 10000
laborers, all of whom are forced ont of
employment by the great reduction in
wages, purported to have been made in
order to compete with the cheap labor
OF the Southern mills. The Southern
laborers are fully as well paid as thos e
OF the North. The trouble is that Mr.
Carnegie is seeking to add to his al
ready numerous millions, and he cares
not at whose expense. And yet million
aire Carnegie is Ioudest in the claim that
a government Of protection is the only
one under which the laborer can live.
