SOMETHING MORE Is REQUIRED

SOMETHING MORE Is REQUIRED.
General Weaver's principal argu-
ment is that the government stamp is
ell that is required to CONVEX. any
thing-like gold, silver or paper
into money. This was his argument
when he advocated the issue of prac-
ticslly unlimited quantities Of green
backs. 1t is his chief argument now.
We beg leave to decidedly and
most emphasically differ with the rag
baby apostle. Something else beside
the government stamp is required,
and we believe that we can demon.
strats ths solndness Of this proposition
to tho satisfaction of any intelligent
man by referring to the experience of
our own government.
Shortly after the characterization of
silver Senator Jones and other heavy
producers looked about for WAYS to
increase the consumption or demand
for the metal 1t was then ascertaine d
that, decades ago, Mexico had made a
market in Asia for her surplus silver.
The Chine Sc in the United States
preferred Mexican silver coin to all
other, even gold. 1t was supposed
that il q dollar containing fully one
hundred cents worth Of silver, even
ut the discount then existing, were
coined, the Asiatics would creedilv
absorb this coin aud stow it away
With the other millions of dollars
worth for the possession Of which thew
are noted.
There was no trouble with the coin
in this country. In the mining re.
gions everybody cheerfully accepted
it. TIE miner took 100 for his
months work, the merchant accepted
them in payment for his Ii Is, his bank
took them by the stack. and SO did
his wholesaler. To be sure, there was
. little g'umbling about the weight,
but there was mono whatever about
the value. For few months all went
well. Presently it became known
that the plagued heathens would not
accept the trade dollar, As it was

lean silver and preferred that. Soon
the trade dollar was discredited, and
dropped to . discount Of 10 and even
20 per cent, and its coinage was
finally stopped and the issues recalled.
Now, there was . coin that con.
tanned an undisputed dollars worth Of
silver. 1t bore the government
stamp. Yet it was dishonored, and
withdrawn from circulation.
Does not this prove the justice Of
our proposition that something else
beside the stamp Of the government is

THE STRIKERS MUST YIELD.

The Federation of Labor, SAID to be
100000 strong, has concluded to as
sist the Homestead strikers with money
and sympathy. That is all very we'll.
IL the federationists wish to contrib,
ute from their hard-earned pennies
for the purpose mentioned, they have
a right to do so. But the Homestead
strikers will not be rengthened by
such assistance. Before the firm de.
termination Of the Carnegie company
not to yield to the strikers, the latter
must bow, sooner or later. Neither
the capture nor driving away Of a few
OF the non>union workmen will avail,
and the strikers will at last be CON-
PEELED to acknow ledge the mselves
beaten.
There is only one way in which Ia.
hor troubles can be settled. This is
by compron Use brought about through
arbitration. such as was recommended
by the Republican editors v no met in
Boise last week.
This means, however, is not in reach
OF the Carnegie strikers, As they vio.
lated the law BY murder and violence.
Having thus appealed to brute force
and been worsted, the best and only
course open TO them is to submit 10
the inevitable. The quicker they do
this, the better it will be for them.

and will in time give Idaho standing
second to none in that line.

A Chase After Prisoners.

DRESDEN, Aug. IL. Last Sunday
night, while w. Fl. Trout, an old farmer
living near Sharon, was absent at
church, his residence was entered and
robbed of $3.50 and silver watch. Two
young men of that station, Brooks and
Morgan, were spotted as the thieves.
and were Swallowed by detective at
Dresden, where they arrived yesterday
and made the rounds of the public
square. They seemed to be flush of
money for plain country lads. The two
suspects took the noon train for Martin,
and so did the officer, who telegraphed
ahead to Deputy Sheriff Bowling to be
at the train and arrest the boys, which
was done.
While Brooks and Morgan were in
the custody of constable the former
made break for liberty, mounted a
horse provided by four of his brothers
and made his escape. Constable Dodds
pursued and recaptured Brooks, but the
four brothers came up, drew their pis-
tolls and forced the officer to turn him
loose. The deputy sheriff then pur-
sued Brooks five miles, captured him,
and brought him and Morgan heavily
guarded to Dresden and placed Brooks
in Jail. Morgan was not jailed, as
Brooks in his confession said that Nor
gan was wholly innocent of the crime,
and that he alone did the robbing.
Morgan is held, however for carrying a
pistol, which the officer found on his
person.

TENNESSEE STATE NEWS.
Centenary of Tennessee.


Douglass Anderson. of Nashville,
writes to the Memphis Commercial as
follows:
Tennessee will be 100 years old on
June /, 1896. Tennesseans should cele-
brate the occasion by holding centen-
NAL exposition. They should do this
because, being a patriotic people, they
love and revere the memory of their
brave ancestors who suffered privation,
endured great hardships and endangered
their scalps for the benefit of their de-
scendants. They should celebrate the
occasion because they are progressive
people; because an exposition would
rebound to the pecuniary benefit of the
State, and keep alive State pride. The
display could be so varied that every
visitor would be pleased with something
and thousands could be induced to
come.
ut could be made a grand success if
every man who feels the proper interest
in Tennessee would do his duty. Col
umns might be filled in speaking of the
advantages that would be derived, not
only in attracting visitors from other
States, but in making Tennesseans
aware of the richness of their own
State. 1t would educate the younger
people in the history of their State,
which reads like a romance, and per-
suade them to learn more of Tennes-
sees great historical characters, whose
lives are more interesting than the
heroes in any work of fiction.
1.-THE centennial being a State affair,
the Legislature should make an APP
preparation for its benefit, if the finan-
cial condition of the State would per-
nit of it, in view of the benefits that
would be derived. The Legislature
would also select the location of the
exposition, and the city offering to do
the most for the exposition should be
selected. There would probably be six
cities in the contest-Knoxville, Chat
tanooga, Nashville, Columbia, Jackson
and Memphis-and an interesting RI
valry might grow out of the contest.
Let the press and the people agitate
the question between now and NOvem-
Der, 80 that the Legislature, which
meets in January, will know how to
act in accordance with their wishes.
In the meantime let the citizens of each
of the above named cities go to work;
that each may be prepared to present
its argument and make its overtures to
the next Legislature"

"whom the Gods would Destroy"

How strange it is that the Russian
car should isolate himself and his gov
eminent from the sympathy and re-
spect of the civilized world in an ext
gency and at a moment when civilized
sympathy are essential to the continued
being even of cars and ''paternaP' gov
ernments. He gives fresh illustre-
ton of the ancient proverb that "Whom
the gods would destroy they first make
mad" Not content with ill-treating
the unhappy Jews, the powers that be
are now prosecuting an inoffensice sec
ton of the Russian peasan try.
There is over there a sect called the
"Stundists." Their bitterest foes bear
witness to their morality, sobriety and
honesty. For reading the Bible and
attending prayer meetings they are i'm
prisoned and exiled, their wives and
daughters are first outraged and then
either beaten to death or sent to the
Siberian hell, and their property is con-
iscated. They do not attend the Greek
church. Force them to attend at the
point of a bayonet or kill them. Such
is the dictum of ST. Petersburg.
We remind the tyrant that Gods
thunderbolts are hot and that the day
of retribution draweth niRh.-St. Louis

Making a Hill TO Tremble.

Curious and interesting is the fact
that the playing of children on the
slopes of Flamsteed hill, on which the
observatory of Greenwich stands, sets
the hill into vibration to such an extent
as to interrupt observations which de-
pend upon the motionlessness of tray
of mercury. Hundreds of children are
accustomed in the evening to romp upon
the hill outside the observatory walls.
Joining hands they run headlong down
the slope and tumble in heap at its
foot. The result is that the solid hill is
thrown into such state Of tremor that
the vibrations continue TO be felt at the
observatory until long past midnight
and for many hours after the tired chill
dren have been asleep-Y outh's Com

GULF WEED.
Views of DIR. Krummel In Regard to the
SRrgasso Sea.

views OF Dr. hru1nn mel In Regard TO tine
SRrgasso Sea.
The Sargasso sea, or floating masses
of gulf weed in mid-Atlantic, which inn
peded the ships of Columbus four hun
dred years ago, has been the subject Of
careful study by DR.. Krummel, a Ger
man photographer, who takes a diff
ferent view of its origin from that com
monty accepted. He shows, to begin
with, that the idea is much more ex.
tensive than Humboldt supposed. The
middle or thickest part is elliptical in
form, the great axis lying along the
tropic of cancer, and the foci at forty.
five degrees and seventy degrees west
longitude. Around this are more ex-
tensive but thinner accumulations OF
the weed, which vary with the prevail
ing winds.
The gulf weed (fucus natans), which,
with its little round berries" is not
unlike the mistletoe in form, but of
brownish-yellow color, has been thought
to have lost its property of roofing on
rocks, and to have acquired the power
of living af1oat. It has even been
suggested that the sea marks the site
of submerged continent, apparently
the lost Atlantis. DR.. Krummel holds
that the weed has simply been drifted
up to its present position by the Gulf
stream and its affiuents from the West
Indian islands and the gulf Of Mexico.
It is now proved that the Gulf stream
is not single narrow ''river of the
ocean," as Maury POLITICALLY described
it; but consists of number of currents
not only from the Mexican gulf but
the Antilles. The weed according to
DR.. Hummel would take fifteen days to
float as far north as the latitude of
CapeHatteras and five and a half months
to reach the Azores. In the Sargasso
sea it becomes heavy and sinks; but
the supply is kept up by the Gulf
stream. DIR. Krummel is certainly
right in giving the Sargasso sea a much
wider area than Humboldt did and
than our maps usually portray. 1t has
been encountered some two or three
hundred miles northeast of Barbados;
but whether the weed is solely carried
from the West Indies and the gulf is
perhaps open to doubt.-London Globe.

Miscellaneous,

Mr.. HAYS ALGEE died at Milan last
week at the advanced age of 76. He
was a prominent citizen and tax col
lector for several years.
THE meeting of the stockholders of
the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad
Company held at Tracy City last week
to ratify the purchase of the Cahaba and
Excelsior coal companies, was adjourned
till Sept. 12th for want of quorum.
ABOUT fifty citizens captured Ebert
Bedwell, near Cumberland City, in
Houston County, last week, and white
capped him by giving him a severe
thrashing. Orders were given him to
leave the country. He was accused of
cursing and otherwise abusing his
mother.
. THE District Union convention Of the
Young Peoples Society of Christian En-
deavor convened in Milan last week
with over 100 delegates present. The
next district convention of this body
will meet at Dyer on December
Goth. The convention was harmonious
throughout, the delegates being en-
thusiastic in the work.
SENSATIONAL reports come from Coal
Creek regarding the conduct of Tennes-
sees standing army. The citizens claim
that the watchers need watching, and
they have assumed an aggressive posi-
ton toward them. They charge that
the soldiers amuse themselves by firing
oyster cans, loaded with mud, from their
cannons into the village.
FROM district No. 8 in Montgomery
county comes the news of an on TRACE
which was committed last week by I'M
known parties. Some lawless scOun-
drels visited Blooming Grove Baptist
Church, and set about the task of de-
spelling the edifice. The windows were
broken out, the church entered, lamps
shattered, and general destruction
wrought. The church is said to have
been almost ruined. The windows
were of stained glass, and cost several
hundred dollars. A meeting of the
members of the congregation has been
held for the purpose Of bringing GRIM
inal prosecution if the parties are found.
NEGOTIATIONS have been completed
by the State of Tennessee for the sale
of 81, 500, 900 15-year per cent bonds at
par. The proceeds will be used to re-
tire the outstanding IS, 515s and IS.
The sale of these bonds was made un-
der authority of an act passed by the
last Legislature, which provided also
for the retirement of the outstanding
s, 81 and per cent bonds. The fund
ing board went to New York several
weeks ago. and gave an option till July

cepted, but the details of the contract
