are laid down in the statute books.
We must stick to that contract, un-
finchingly, and demand that they do
the same. We must make it easy for
our agents to fill their part of the COM
pact. We do not hire man to do
something for us and then lay obstac-
les in his way. No, we help him, en-
courage him, and urge him forward
all we can. So this great company
has men to act for it, and every indi-
vidual member is honor-bound TO act
for the good of all. So let us hold
up the hands of our servants and do
all in our power to aid them to accom-
plish the purposes of a free govern
ment. Give them our hearty support
when the law is assailed, and the flag
which we so dearly love will forever
float as the emblem of right, justice
and liberty to all.

DANGERS ABROAD.

What is to be done? Lawlessness,
riots and bloodshed are abroad in our
land.
1t is coming more and more certain
that any man or set Of men, who has
a grievance, imaginary or otherwise,
will n6 wait for legal remedies to re-
dress their wrongs. This is a danger.
GUS state of things.
Are We a free government? Is
this a Government of the people,
by the people and for the people?" II
it is, the people are responsible for the
laws and their enforcement. If they
don't like some of the laws there is a
right and wrong way to get these
laws repealed. Anarchists should be
taught that they cannot deliberately
take the wrong way and then escape
ishment.
Strikes, lynchings and riots are the
eruptions from the seething and boil
ing caldron of defiance to the law
The cooling spirit of obedience to the
law should be made to permeate thi.
heated mass of distructiveness tina
will bring our country to its speedy
ruin if it is not checked. If the COO
and legal methods cannot be promul
gated by the argument of reason ant
justice, then the argument Of tn,
sword and the hangman's moose shoult
be used. But by whatever argument
no matter how tame or how severe
the time must come when the lawles
are subjuga.ed; and come it mus
right speedily or we are ruined.
The officers of the law are on
agents, they must do as the majorit,
of the people who employ them, an,
pay them, demand them to do. l
they do not obey us we can discharg,
them and hire others to act in thei
places. They are not our rulers, W,
are theirs. We have formed a con
tract with them, the terms of whicl

Hon. H. CLAY EVANS was renomi-
mated as the Republican candidate
for Congress from the Third district
by reclamation. Mr.. Evans is I'M
doubleday the strongestmanthey could
have nominated and if any Republi-
can can carry that district after the
Democrats have cut it up like they
have, the brilliant orator nd.,statesman
from Chattanooga is that man. We be-
lleve there will be enough honest men
that will reject the fraudulent methods
of the Democrats to elect Mr.. Evans.
If he does go to Washington this
State will be credited with having one
of the brainiest men in the country as
one of her representatives. We hope
he will, for Tennessee certainly needs
a change from the moss-backs she has
been sending for sometime past.

THE miners are not altogether re-
sponsible for the trouble at the mines.
They have been, generally, law-abid
ing, Woodworking people. The State
has seen fit to disgrace the labor Of
the miners by subjecting them to the
competition of convicts. Against this
they protested and broke out in re-
bellion. Of course the law must be
upheld and the instruction suppressed
But the State owes it to its reputation
to redress the lamentable evils which
haze led to the uprising. The bruti
flying of convicts and the degradation
Of labor must cease.

THE sympathetic hearts of some
people will no doubt cause them a
great deal of trouble. Grover sympa-
thized a great deal with the family Of
the cold blooded murderer King, but
he forgot to express a word of sympa-
thy for the bereaved wife and chill
dren of his victim, Poston. King
was popular, a man of influence. 1t
pays to sympathize with his friends,
especially if you are running for office
and want their votes.

MARYvILLE, TENN, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST "a, 1892

THE Appeal-Avalanche has this tc
say about the platform Gov. Buchan-
an has make for himself:
"Thc platform which he has de-
vised is made up in the main Of
Democratic planks. We had expect
ed that in case he should 60 before
the people as an independent candi.
date, he would proclaim some issue
which would appeal to the considera.
ton Of the voters, and would stand as
representation of particular ideas, but
he has not done this"
Well! Well Hoped he would
proclaim some issue which would ap.
peal to the consideration of the voters.
But he has not done this" We al
ways knew that the Democratic plat
form never "would stand as the rep
resentative of particular ideas" but
never e, pected such eminent Demo
cratic authority as the Appeal-Ava-
lanche to say so. Our Memphis ex-
change never seemed to notice this
until its opponents had adopted the
same ground that it had been standing
on for some time. Come over broth.
er and support the Republican party.
1t proclaims issues which appeal to the
consideration of the voters. II
stands as the representative of partic
ular ideas.

THE treacherous manner in which
Maj. Anderson was enticed out of the
fort at Coal Creek and then captured
meets with condemnation by all hon
est men. A flag Of truce was raised by
the miners who asked the Major to
come out from the fort and he trusting
in their honor went to house where
he was held as a prisoner and threat
ened with death if he did not sign an
agreement to surrender the fort. The
brave fellow refused and told them to
kill him if they must, but not to put a
rope around his neck. He was ready
to die, but wanted to die like a soldier
and requested them to shoot him.
The treacherous miners dared not
harm the brave man, whom their
falseness had placed in their bloody
hands.

OLD PETE and his gang of moss
backs may find that they need the
Alliance Democrats they would not
let cast their votes in their primaries
in Middle Tennessee. After such a
course they still have the cheek to

sense and the old Bourbons will find
to their sorrow that they cannot soft.
soap the Alliance Democrats into sup

Gov. BUCHANAN is a bad, bad,
wicked, naughty man, says the Dem
ocratic papers. He is going to run
for governor on his own hook and will
carry the Alliance votes that were
formerly Democratic. but which were
rejected inthe primaries Of that party
just because they belonged to that or
der. Better shut out the Masons,
Odd Fellows, ETC., and announce the
Democratic party as opposed to all
organizations except campaign clubs
organized in its interest.

REPUBLICAN doctrine is that the AL

ABOUT PENSIONS.

One OF our readers, an old soldier,
handed us the Memphis Commercial
with an extract from Congressman
Gus Enloe's rampantant speech at
Milan, Tenn, and wished us to say
something about it. After an exag-
gerated account of what Tennessee
and the South has to pay toward pen
sions "Gussie" goes on in very i'm
passioned strain: eff Republicanism
triumphs this campaign we will never
enjoy freedom. Democrats do your
duty. Listen to reason. Relief
comes only with Democratic victory.
The tidal wave of Democracy sweeps
on. Cleveland is our next president,
and with Democratic House and
Senate, your relief is assured"
This of course means with Cleve-
land in the presidential chair and the
Democrats in control OF 10Th houses
that they will curtail the present pen

dice the pubIf mind against paying
pensions to veterans of the war. 1t
is hardly likely such scheme will be
Endorsed by the patriotic citizens, and
it will certainly meet with the unqali
fed opposition Of those who shoulder
ed muskets for the Union. Even
those who consider it burden that
the nations defenders should be paid
now that they are growing old should
remember that those grand men are
every year marching in platoons to
the grave and be willing to do little
while they are with us.
An examination ofthe recent report
of Commissioner Raum brings to
light some facts which contradict the
predictions of the soldier-haters. The
total amount expended in payment Of
pensions for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1892, was in round numbers,
$3.50, 900, 900; of this amount &C.,
I6I pensioners on the,rolls of June 80,
1891, received about $S7, 900, 900, and
the 224, o47 original cases allowed
during the fiscal year 1892 received
about $52, 900, 900. Should this ad
ministration continue for two years al
the original payments will be adjusted
and the pension roll will have reached
its maximum amount, which will no
exceed at that time SITS, 900, 900
From this time forward it will de
crease, for they are passing away rap
idly. Last year $4,000 penSioner'
dropped from the roll. Next yea
the Commissioner Estimates that NJ
less than 40, 900 will be mustered on
here below and the following year, mo
less than 50, 900, with no origina
claims to add. The roll is gradual!
melting away. A few years more will
settle the pension question justly, fair
ly, honoraply, ito those who freel,
gave their lives and health that tn
Republic might live, and in that wa,
, the Republican party has pledged ii
self to settle the question. Soldier
