1t is now thought by those who favor
repeal that vote can be reached 10
two, or at the outside three, weeks.
The gamblers are usually good judges
OF the way the wind blows and they
are Offering odds that the purchasing
clause OF the Sherman law will be re-
pealed before the first OF October, Still,
it is certain that The bill will not pass
the Senate without bitter struggle,
which viii probably be one Of the most
memorable in the history of the Sen
ate, This st, uggle il expected to begin
with continuous session of the Sen
ate, when the attempt will be made to
wear out the opposition and thus force
a vote.
The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1893-09-07

IT is now acknowledged by the
staunchest opponent of the uncondi-
tional repeal of the purchasing clause
Of the Sherman silver law that the OPP
position to repeal is gradually melting
away. A majority of the Senators will
vote for repeal when a vote can be
reached, and the only delay that can
arise after all the Senators have been
given an opportunity to express their
sentiments will be by fillibustering. To
what extent flllbustering will be car
ried is not yet apparent, but it is GER
tain that number OF Senators who
are strongly opposed to unconditional
repeal-such men as Morgan, of Ala
bama, and PETER, of Kansas, will re-
fuse to aid in fillibustering to prevent
a vote, and Senator Voorhees,, WHO is in
charge of the rereal bill, has given no
tice of his intention to use extreme
measures, to force vote upon the bill,
as soon as it becomes apparent that
the debate is being prolonged for no
other purpose than to stave off vote.

The Supply Of Money.

The statement made by the Secre-
tary of the Treasury with reference to
the amount Of money in the country
shows how baseless is the notion that
business is suffering because the sup
ply is inadequate.
A year ago money was drug in the
markets Of the country. The vaults OF
the banks were full Of it, and the de-
mand was so light that many bankers
went out to look for opportunities OF
placing redundant funds Unsafe hands
where they might earn something.
Last December leading banker OF
Louisville. when interviewed as to
the business of the year then closing
said that the earnings of the banks
had been smaller than they would
have been had they not been COM
PEELED to carry so much idle money
during considerable part of the year

among financiers and business, men,

East Tennessee and Its Condition.
Notwithstanding the financial strin-
gency and the too ready cry OF hard
times, East Tennessee has little rea-
sonable cause for complaint. 1t was
never in better condition than it is
now. 1t has been blessed with boun-
tiful crops, the corn crop being one OF
the finest known, and the wheat yield
was unusually large, while the hay,
fruit and other crops are all abundant
1t is well supplied with live stock, the
farmers are, generally speaking in
comfortable circumstances, and all
that is needed to make times actively
prosperous in East Tennessee, is for
things to begin to move. This done
confidence will be restored and we will
at once become more cheerful and
prosperous.
In the meantime let us bear and
forbear. If a man owes you few
dollars and can't pay it don't run all
around town advertising the fact. Be
lenient; give HIM a chance; help
others to bear their burdens aud
others will help you. Be game; be
plucky ; be cheerful. Keep scratching
with the energetic determination to
pull through all right regardless OF
conditions. Let everybody d. this
and the financial storm will soon give
way to the breeze OF prosperity.
There's no use or sense in getting
blue and giving up hope. 1t does not
pay to make trouble, or to borrow
trouble or to imagine trouble. The
better way is to fight trouble and
conquer it or die with bravery in
your heart and smile on your lips
Don't despair and drop down because
the road is little rougher than usual.
This is a time to show your mettle,
to show the stuff you are made Of.
With one of the best countries on
earth, with proud past, a prosperous
present and promising future, with
rich and smiling fields, with hills and
mountains Of untold and incalculable
wealth, with the finest OF climates and
the healthiest of regions, with fine
crops. with every assurance of plenty
OF "hog and hominy," East Tennessee
has no calse for complaint, and a
wall from her would be akin to the
wall OF cowardice. East Tennessee
is all right-if she will only admit it,

The Three C's bridge over Nola
Chucky river was washed out Mon
day afternoon. The bridge consisted
Of two spans and a lot Of trestle work
and was only used to run dump cars
over. The river rose very rapidly
Monday and hundreds of logs came
down, lodging against the bridge
which gave way and was torn out
from shore to shore. Several car loads
of lumber belonging to Robertson &
Go. went with it. This is the second
bridge washed out at this point since
the Three C's road was constructed,
and it is great loss to the company.
The washout will be a serious draw
back to the Unaka Springs hotel and
to parties having lumber and tan bark
on that side of the river.
