War in Earnest.

There is war in earnest in Tennessee.
The state troops have been met by the riot
ing miners with bullets and bucBshot. The
reported number OF killed and wounded on
each side is sufficiently large to arouse in-
tense excitement throughout the state.
The sympathy that was 80 freely
expressed for the free miners before
they began to use violence to accom-
plish their purpose no longer exists. The
governors call for volunteers was responded
to with alacrity, and force was soon col>
lected at Coal Creek sufficiently large to
bring the rioters to terms. No call has been
made on the federal government for troops.
A demand for arms and ammunition met
with a favorable response.
The trouble will play an important part
in the state campaign in Tennessee. 1t is a
question whether the legislature, when
called together last January to consider the
convict problem as presented by the
Brioeville affair. did not shirk its
duty. The whole purpose OF the
extra session was to decide whether
the demand OF the free miners relative to
removing the convicts from the coal mines
ohONAA 10 OCLip AAC0 WAbh 1hO AoRlSldbuE0
did not seem to be able to grapple with the
question, and. although it refused to grant
the demand, it left every thing In the dark,
and the free miners felt that they had OBJ
tanned no satisfaction. A very decided and
positive announcement that the states
policy with respect to the conviots would
not be changed would have done far more
good than the putting Off of the settlement
of the difficulty. 1t is not too much to say
that the Tennessee legislature is partly to
blame for the unhappy condition OF affairs in
that state. The legislature will have to set
tie the matter eventually, and it would have
been much wiser TO have done so when it
was called together for that purpose
The ringleaders Of the rioters should be
arrested and punished Although the free
miners have a grievance they are not justi>
fed in resorting to lawleSsness to get salts
faction. They should be taught to respect
the law and to seek remedies for real or
fancied wrongs by lawful means. No re-
| quest for arbitration or compromise should
be entertained until the supremacy Of the
law is restored. The rioters should be made
TO understand that the law must be respect
ed. That is matter of more Importance
than any other.

A Close Gail.

1T once had rather queer experience in St.
Louis, - said F. A. Brown to st. Louis Globe
Democrat writer. Il was walking south on
Third street at a late hour one night and saw
two toughs hold up drunken man and GO
through his pockets. l ran forward, and in
their haste to escape the footpads dropped theiI
spoil several loose bills. l picked it up, and
was helping the Inebriate out Of the gutter in
men hove in sight. The drunken idiot began &c
yell thieves and the ooppers rushed up and
grabbed me. There l was with a handful of
bills in company with booty rustic, whose
pockets were hanging wrong side out. / tried
to explain, but was tersely informed that 1T

Porter as a Teacher and Preacher.
Mr.. Porter, the superintendent Of the
census takes good deal of interest In re-
ligious matters and sometimes makes pub
lie addresses on subjects relating DO religion.
At Asbury Park last Sunday he presented
figures taken from the census reports, show
ing the number Of religious scots in this
country, and pointed out that some OF these
scots find 10 a very difficult matter to keep
up their church organisations. He stated
that it would be much better for the cause
OF religion, particularly in the small towns.
il struggling congregations of the different
Protestant denominations should give up
their separate organizations aud unite in
making one large congregation.
There is a good deal TO be said In support
of Mr.. Porter's position, but does it not
seem little remarkable that he should be
so deeply interested in religious mattersl
Only a week or two ago the Now York
World published a story to the effect that
Mr.. Porter, just before his appointment to
his present office, and soon after that event.
was a rather active drummer for New
York wine merchant and used the position he
OCCupLou III tuo 1eSpuOiCou poIbJ W AubIO-

There is no reason why a man should not
| be drummer for a wine merchant pro-
vided he pursues the calling openly and in
straightforward manner.
II the Worlds story Is true, however, he
kept the fact that he was drumming for a
wine house in the background, and left the
| impression that the wine he was recon-
mendiug was 80 good that be wanted his
| friends to try it. 1t is alleged that he even
sent case OF it to the President, who re-
| fused to receive it unless per mitted to pay
| for 1t.
Mr.. Porter. in his Sundays address,
| ought to have explained his connection with
the wine merchant He might have been
able to show that he recommended the wine
and had it introduced wherever he had any
| influence for no other reason than that he
wanted to assist the wine merchant. AS
the matter now stands, it looks very much
as if MIR. Porter as playing double part
while he was helping the wine merchant TO
get rid OF his stock. That being the case,
he can hardly do much good by discussing
at public gatherings the necessity for
getting rid of some of the smaller religious
| denominations.

The republican newspapers, seeing that
there is very little chance of their party.
with the aid of the Peoples party, splitting
the solid south, are becoming little more
frank in their expressions concerning the
force bill, which is now admitted to be an
essential part of the republican programme
The New Haven Palladium, leading re-
publican journal, says; "If Mr.. Harrison
is reelected. as we believe and trust he will
be, there is no doubt thai the most earnest
efforts of his administration will be ex-
tended toward the passage Of a federal
election law by congress similar TO that
which passed the House of Representatives
of the last congress-"

wise Course OF the Alliance.

when the alliance In this state showed an
inclination to go into politics the MORNING
| NEWS pointed out that it would make
mistake If it did so. The MORNING News
for long time urged the order to confine
itself to the purposes for which 1t was or
gained. The argument used was that the
order could be made OF great benefit to the
farmers II kept within the limits o. its
constitution, and that It would 60 to pieces
/ il it permitted itself to be dragged into
politics.
! Ambitious members of the alliance who
wished to profit by its voting strength sue
ceeded in getting it to take part in politics.
The result is that the order is only about
half as strong as it was couple of years
ago, if the amount Of the dues collected Is
an indication Of strength.
At the annual convention at Gainesville
on Thursday it was decided that the organ
ization should be conducted on non
political basis. This decision, however, was
not reached until after a very earnest dis
cuSsion. 1t became apparent that to save
the order from ruin the alliance in future
would have to keep within the limits Of its
constitution and give politics wide
berth. That was the only course open to 1t.
| The other course-the ons leading toward
the third party-meant its speedy destruc-
ton. The MORNING NEWS was criticised
severely for telling the alliance to look out
for the interests of the farmers and let poll
tics alone. II its advice had been taken,
and the alliance had been wisely and eco-
nomlcally managed it would be in -four
ishing condition and a source of great help
to the farmers Even now, in its crippled
condition, it is possible TO restore confidence
IN it if those who want to use it to advance
their political fortunes can be kept out of it.

When the democratic papers comment on
the fact that President hsrrison's letter Of
acceptance has not yet been given to the
public the republican papers retort,
"Neither has Cleveiand's." 1t is only proper
that Mr.. Cleveland should delay his letter.
Mr.. Harrison received his nomination first,
consequently he should be the first to ac-
Dept, and Mr.. Cleveland will probably with
hold his letter until Mr.. Harrison's shall
have been made public. AS there are still
no signs that the President has made up his
mind what to say on the force bill ISSUE it
may be some time in September before
either of the letters is published.

The attempt to pass the force bill, and the
