Dear Herald & Tribune:

Dear Herald & Tribune:
The weekly visit which you pay us
here in our new home, give us SO much
pleasure that we feel impelled to give
you a few items in return. We have
been here just three months, and while
we miss the green grassy meadows, the
numerous grain fields, large barns and
the greater food supplies of our native
Tennessee, yet all these blessings and
comforts may be had here also, and we
hope to enjoy them if we live and re-
main able to work. The climate and
water are admirable; health good: land
easily titled fruits aud berries in plenty
people general plain and social; negroes
much more numerous than in East
Tennessee, but giving us no trouble,
and SO, upon the whole, we can say
that people of limited means can get
homes in Georgia, upon easier terms
than where farming has not been car
ried on uponth the suicidal plan of nearly
all cotton, impoverishing both land
and the land owners, who almost en-
tirely depend upon outside food sur
plies. We are located fifteen miles
of Atlanta and five of Marietta-eleva-
ton, 1850 feet above the sea. Lettuce,
onions and r dishes are being eaten
here now. ID. d. & E. d. ARNOLD.

THE trial of Jos. Banks for murder
ing John Littleton was had in Nash
vile last week and, of course, he was
acquitted, and another star added to
Nashville's galaxy of murderers. There
is no danger of that town losing her
deserved reputation of having among
her citizens u greater number of men
who have committed murder than any
city in the United States. The acquit-
tai of Banks is an outrage upon civil
cation and a travesty upon law and
common justice. By the verdict rem
dered John Littleton was a man not
fit to walk the streets of Nashville, but
was so dangerous and inimical to law
and the common safety of the people
as to make it perfectly justifiable and
lawful to shoot him down as one would
a rabid dog. Once more is Justice
abashed and forced to hide her face in
disgrace at the insult put upon her by
the mockery of u trial. How long
can an intelligent community submit
to such outrageous decisions? When
shall III courts be purified of the faint
that is upon them?

degree, will not waver in their party

1T is said that contrary to law, writ
ten and unwritten, John G. Houk, be-

keeperof the House of Representatives
and as Congressman from the Second
District, fill ng the unexpired term of
his father. Comment to suit yourself.

In reply to the above we will say that
Mr.. Houk drew the salary as stated.
This is only one of many such cases.
A notable n being that of Hon. S. S.
Cox, of New York, a Democrat, who
was Minister to Turkey under the Cleve-
land administration, and elected to
Congress while so serving. The decis-
ion giving Mr.. Cox the right to draw
this salary was rendered by Mr.. Dur

the modern free traders who steal and
copy his arguments without permitting
themselves to acquire any of his hon
esty of speech. Explaining his bill to
reduce the tariff to the basis of reve-
nue. only, he said II admit that this
bill, should it pass, will do very great
damage to the manufacturing States. "
Being a Southerner, that consideration
did not weigh with McDufie. Turn
ing to the Northern members he said !:
Il am not considering your interests,
but your rights General McDufie
frankly declared that he wanted o tar
iff for revenue only to cheaper wages.
Privileged to get goods as low in price
as he could, he claimed also the right
to cheaper labor to the utmost. Advo-
eating free trade in its entirety and
with complete honesty, McDufie de-
serves to rank as the greatest expounder
of that doctrine in this country.

would be gross injustice not to say that
lied by ex-Speaker Reed, Mr.. Burrows

last" This is a statement worth being
given o than an ephemeral circula-
ton. With such a House as the pres

legislation it is indeed refreshing to
read that some of the Democrats are
forced to admit that the man they
abused and represented as a tyrant is
one who can be a patriot first and a

A PLAIN Dirty.

The convention which meets today
in Greeneville is the second district con-
vention to meet in the State. 1t is one
of the first guns in n of the greatest
political fights ever wagedi in Tennessee,
therefore the men of the mountains
must declare their principles in no I'M
certain terms. The Republican party
stands for something, means some
thing, and above and beyond the men
selected are the principles to be con-
tended for. The first duty of the con-
vention is to lay down clearly the line
of battle. Let this be done so plainly
that no man can mistake it.
The national campaign will of course
be fought out on national issues, and
these issues we can neither make nor
avoid. They are cardinal doctrines of
faith by which the national party must
stand or fall. Protection, honest mon
ey and fair elections are planks for the
Republican platform in every State.
These are the national issues. In State
and local issues we choose our own
ground. If the Greeneville conven-
ton acts wisely and boldly it can out
line the party's policy upon State is
sues and reap the credit of formulating
the plan of the State campaign.
For six months past the Herald and
Tribune has voiced the peoples demand
for the repeal of the convict lease sys-
tenn. 1t has not hesitated to denounce
in plain terms the monstrous evil which
Democratic administrations have done
to the free labor of the State. 1t has
charged the present State officers-and
back of them the Democratic party
with responsibility for the disgrace and
infamy brought upon u good name
by the Coal Creek riots. 1t believes
that the miners were right in refusing
to stand idly by when their bread was
taken from their mouths, when starva-
ton threatened wives and children,
and it has said SO. Agitation has been
famed without any mincing of words.
The duty of the hour is plain. The
people are opposed to the system and
a change is demanded. The present
condition is barbarous and brutal, dis
honest and ~disgraceful. Let the con-
vention ONE squarely to the platform
of the Herald and and Tribune and de-
mand the repeal Of the lease system.
1t must go, and its authors and sup
porters will go with it. Organized la
Dor ana outraged citizenship are in
earnest. No half way measure will
satisfy. Give us a sweeping demand
for the abolition of the system. 1t
will be worth $4,000 votes, and it will
mean the difference between success
and defeat.
This is the peoples fight. The peo-
pie can not be bought, nor is there
money enough in the ring to purchase
silence at G~reeneville today.

Riddle" justfrom the press, it is claim

That speech vas indeed an able me,
