NEWSPAPERS AND THE MOBS.

The esteemed Knoxville Tribune is
generally the fairest Democratic paper
in the State, but in its issue of August
26, it quotes from two Republican pa
pers in East Tennessee concerning the
Coal Creek troubles. Those two
seem to be in sympathy with the law
breakers. The Tribune then says
these are typical expressions from the
Republican press of the State. This
is not fact THE TINES and ma
jority of the district papers denounced
the mob and advocated a most vigor-
Gus war policy against it. We advo-
Gated the hangmans rope for the lead
ers of the riot before either of our city
exchanges had spoken of it. Don't
misrepresent a majority by quoting
from a minority. Bro. Tatom. Mary.
vile Times.
The Tribune reproduced the two
articles as fair specimens of the ex.
pressions from Republican papers that
came under its notice. The Mary
vile TINES and the Knoxville Journal
are the only Republican papers that
have come under our observation
that denounced the rioters. They are
minority of the Republican papers
that we have noticed. 1t is to be re.
gretted that any newspaper, Republi
can or Democratic should apologize
for the lawless acts of the Coal Creek
mob. The newspaper that does it is
dishonor to journalism. Knoxville
Tribune.
This is a correction so far as thi:
paper is concerned and we don't pro
pose to fight the battles of all the pa
pers in the district so if their toes ar,
stepped on they will have TO do theil
own squeafing. We are only respon
ible for our own sayings.

PEOPLE who say we have had four
years of Democratic rule and four
years of Republican and haven't no.
ticed any great difference, should bear
in mind the fact that when Cleveland
was President he could do nothing but
carry out the laws and measures en-
acted by the Republican party. OF
course he could prevent many Repub-
lican measures from becoming laws
by his veto power, as in case of the
hundreds of pension bills, but so far
as having a purely Democratic admin
istration, that, we haven't had since
Abraham Lincoln was placed in the
presidents chair. So when. you hear
person saying there is no difference
between the doctrine of the two par
ties and pointing to the Harrison and
Cleveland administrations to prove
their theory, you may set it down
that they are deliberately trying tc
mislead, or they are woefully Ignorant
of the facts in the case.

A DEMOCRATS TESTIMONY

In his annaul report Labor Com
missioner Peck, a Democrat appointed
by Governor Hill, says: "The re-
turns from 6,ooo manufacturers in
New York State show that the Nc
Kinley bill has increased the wages of
the workingmen;" and further says
| rather expected my report would
cause some comment, but it is all
nonsense to call ii a political docu-
ment. l started this inquiry in De-
cember, 1890, so you see there was
no:thought of the'present campaign in
laying out the work. The tariff ques-
ton was taken up because it has
come to be one of the greatest mo-
ment to workingmen, in whose inter.
est my bureau was established. Now
l am a Democrat-a Hill Democrat,
if you will-and l began this
inquiry with the belief tina,
the result would vindicate the
Democratic tariff position. The
first returns came from the silk indus
try and were pleasant to my way oi
thinking. But l am free to admi,
that the report on the whole is not in
harmony with the Democratic plat
form, so far as the tariff is concerned.
However, my duty as a State officia
is to report things as l find them, moi
as reckless partisan should like to
have them construed. There is nc
politician bias about any of our politi
reports, nor do l believe there is in
any of the reports in any labor bu
reau in the country All l can say il
that the statements of my report are
based on actual confidential letters
received from 6, 900 representatives, o
wholesale manufacturers of New Yorl
State. The.result shows me that tho
leading Democratic speakers on the
tariff are in error as to the effects o
the Mckinley bill. The fgurs in my
report speak fov themselves, and there
is no way Of getting away from them

gested by the situation and environ
ment, is to make man slave to ma
ture instead of natures master. For
the people to devote themselves prin-
cipally to agricultural pursuits 10 the
exclusion OF other industries is merely
to narrow the energies of the race,
make dependent the laborer, and fl
nally exhaust those very powers Of ma
ture they wish to cultivate. 1t is the
duty of society to build up many in
duStries, whatever may be the enyir-
onment. Nature should be constrain-
ed by human law to yield to human
wants. Every country should be able
to supply the most of these wants.
The spindles should be mate to turn;
the forge maGe to glow; the mill wheel
made to turn; the engine made to pant;
and the towering furnace to fling up in
to the darkness of midnight its volcanic
glare. This cannot be accomplished
in any other way than by the legal
protection of those industries which
do not flourish under natural laws.
1t is in brief the theory of protection
ist that every country, by means of its
varied and independent Industries
fostered and encouraged by the pro-
tective system-should become in the
body polite what the gangion is in
the nerve system of man, an indepen-
dent power, capable Of originating its
own action and directing Its own ener-
gies.
Is there no difference between these
two positions2 Surely there is, and a
wide one. Which do you prefer to
be an independent nation, the people
engaged in each industry dependent
on their own countrymen, or all Of US
dependent on the foreigners? Surely
we are more willing to trust our own
people than those of another country.
Then let us vote and work for the
maintainance Of America and Amer
leans. Do not be deceived, the tariff
is an issue of great importance to our
veal or woe. Do not be switched off
on some side track, but vote for pro-
lection and national prosperity.

SOME of the sanity papers of the
Prohibition party are so wrapped up
in the consciousness oftheir own God
illness and purity that they cannot see
any sincerity, honesty or righteousness
in a man unless he falls in with their
own view. No one can be christian
and look at the liquor question through
other than Third party glasses. One
goes so far as to urge the churches to
"spew out the old party voters. " If
this was done we wonder how many
church members there would be in
Maryville ? Are we going back to the
days when the church owned man,
body and soul, and when he dared to
express an opinion of his own he was
tortured as a hereto? Surely not
Far be the day when the church of
this country gets to meddling with

that mission and not drag it into

THE Democratic Labor Commission
er Peck, of New Xork, has fallen like
a bomb-shell in the ranks of the free
traders. He started the investigation
as to the effect of the tariff upon New
York's. industrial and labor interests,
with the thought of sustaining the
Democratic tariff position. But the
facts sustain the Mckinley law. Once
upon a time Grover said: "a high
protective tariff affords no protection
and tends in no way to better the con-
dition of those who toll" Right on
top of this comes Commissioner Peck
in this report saying among other
things: "There were less strikes in
1891 than in 1890" "$3I,3I5,I3o,
net increase OF production 1891 over
1890" "Total average increase Of
wages per capita for ass, 900 employ.

old farmers wanted was a class of peo-

something else, and would buy the
products of their farms, and the first
Congress to provide for that passed a
law which declared in its very pream-

country is SO prosperous. They
would liked to have seen it the other
