come, and the increase is growing as

coming convinced that the cotton ought
to be manufactured where it is grown.
If the present pace be kept up, it will
not be long before there will be a cotton
mill in every county. Figures, however,
speak louder than anything else, and the
remarkable growth of the cotton mill

1t was the twentieth of August, eight
cen hundred and sixty-two. Corinth had
been evacuated more than two months
before. The Army of the Ohio had moved
eastward into northern Alabama. The
president and eminent Union generals
were anxious as to east Tennessee. where,
it was rumOred, the Confederates We're
preparing for some new move.
High in the Cumberland mountains a
soldier in the blue and yellow uniform
Of private of cavalry sat on his horse,
looking down on the valleys of the Sc
quatchie and the Tennessee. A carbine
was slung over his shoulder; a Colts re-
volver was at his hip. He was long and
1.-THE and graceful. About him was an
air Of refinement seldom found under a
private's uniform except during that
war which called out men from all
classes, both i'll the north and in the
south. His hair was light; his blue eye
was restless and denoted its possessor
to be man Of great mental and phys
tcal activity.
While there was something statuesque
In the appearance Of the man and the
horse. they presented marked contrast,
accoutered as they were for war. with
the peaceful scenes before them and
about them. Not a sound was to be
heard up there in the mountains, except
such as came from the insects or the
birds. The equestrian figure mounted
On its lofty pedestal was the personifica-

"Never yer mind, nav. 1 ain goen

The two started off up the road. The
air was pleasant, and it was not too
warm for tramping. They passed out Of
the clearing, and were about entering
tine wood into which the road took them
when they heard step behind them.
Turning, there was Souri,.
"How long d y low y mought be

lowered her eyes.

The girl stood for few moments ir-

to Mark. 1t was the only bit of finery
she possessed.

Then the girl went back to the house,

Mark looked down into the stupid
face Of the boy beside him. He began
to think that the child's stupidity was
not dattering to himself, inasmuch as
Jakey had penetrated further than he
had into Souri's design, and her diff

otherwise solemn scene. It is almost
past belief that men should be willing to
play the solemn goose and enact the
farce of going through with such a per.
formAnce as on this occasion.
Another ludicrous scene occurred
when Senator Sherman entered an OBJ
lection to the appointment Of some in
Vestigating committees on the ground
OF the expense. He charged that such
committees were often made the pretext
for junketing excursions. Immediately
each senator present who had ever sat
on a recess committee rose to clear his
skirts, protesting that he had never
spent cent that was not absolutely
necessary. A democratic senator was
so unkind as to express q regret that
Senator Sherman had not felt called
upon to protest against investigating
committees in previous years. The
whole junketing business is o shameful
piece Of thievery, and the people should
protest in such unmistaksble earnest
ness as to put stop to it. 1t is nonsense
for congressman to claim that they spend
no more than is actually necessary.
There is seldom committee sent on q
tour of investigation that is not accom-
panied byseveral invited guests, together
with the wives and daughters Of the
committeeman. and always the most
lavish entertainment is included.
Should the investigation Of Senator
Roach, who Is charged with dishonest
and criminal transactions in connection
with a Washington bank several years
ago, proceed, there will be much food for
reflection on the part Of the "honest"
voter who regards United States sem
ator much as the ancient Greeks re-
garded demig god, only with difference
in favor OF the common serse Of the
Greek; he had nothing to do with the
creation Of the object Of his reverence,
while the American voter manufactures
his own senatorial idol and then falls
down before him. 1t is openly threat
ened that il the investigation is pushed
against Senator Roach, retaliation will
be the order Of the day, and other sem
ators with crooked careers will be ex-
posed. Let the good work go on. Did

more than psyed for itself. 1t is not so
much in the way Of those things which
are designedly done, and which are pop
ulsrly supposed to be in the line Of pub
lie business, but it is instead in those
matters which come up incidentally for
discussion and consideration and thus
receive attention and become conspic
uous to degree otherwise unattainable.
1t Is astounding that so many men
occupying high official positions should
be entirely ignorant of much that is
transpiring in the country, and also that
they should so fail to rightly estimate
and comprehend the tendency Of events
Of daily occurrence. Very much Of that
which seems to be willful missppre-
hension OF certain threatening tenden-
cies is nothing more or less than ignor-
Rnce, and this sort Of ignorance is quite
as apt to prevail among congressman as
elsewhere. Congressman Funston's no.
toFious ignorance of the non-tsxsbility
Of United States bonds, which cost him
$50, was simply an instance in point.
There are thousands of men, some of
them congressman, too, who play into
the hands of monopolies and array
themselves on the cspitalistic side Of
things solely because they have not yet
seen that our present complicated and
congested social and industrial system
is strsining to the utmost the old order
Of political management and loudly de-
msnding reRdjustment in harmony with
the marvellous growth Of modern bust
ness and industry. There are vastly
more men ignorant than wicked.
The public business which has been
transacted by the senate in the way of
confirming presidential nominations is
of infnitesimal Importance to the mil
lions of American voters. Let each
enthusiastic democrat who hugged him
self happy over the election of Mr.. CleVe-
land. set himself down in the quiet Of
his own fireside and dismiss from his
mind the distracting puzzle Of figuring
out how to save money to take his wife
and children to the Worlds Fair, long
enough to put to himself the question as
to how much he is benefited because
this country is to be represented at the
court Of st. James by Ambassador Bay
ard instead of by Minister Plenipoten-
.tiary and Envoy Extraordinary Lincoln.
Let HIM pursue this line of thought
throughout the entire list Of personal
change Of office-holderp, and the change
is simply one Of personnel and not Of
policy, and unless he loves his party
name more than he does the good, sound
American common sense he was born
with, he cannot help but see that the
public business involved in the change
from republicsnism to democracy is no
relation to him-unless he chances to
have some thirty-second cousin who has
been appointed to a fourth-class post
mastership. It follows, therefore, that
the work of the senate has been mat
ter Of moment only to the gentlemen
who have been lucky enough to receive
appointment to Office. But meanwhile
matters of immeasursbly greater impor-
tance have intruded their unwelcome
presence and forced the attention and
discussion Of a body of men, many of

is matter for coDgrRtulation that this
conservative, old-school, non, progressive
senator from Maryland is really reused
to the point Of such a declaration. All
that is necessary in order to secure de-
sired measures is to have sufficient agi-
tation and information. The great
masses Of American voters want the
right and the best sort of public man
agement And nothing could be more
hopeful than to get the case in court
and on trial in the national congress.
Senator German has just caught a
glimpse Of the monstrous peril involved
in the false relations between employers
and employed. He remained in blissful
ignorance through all the horrors of
Homestead, Of the Tennessee coal mines,
and other points Of conflict Through
out those troublous times the class in
which he was interested remained So
cure, entrenched behind the courts; but
now the scene Is shifted. Indications
point to the possibility of court proteo-
tion of the other set Of fellows-the
employees. This shocking peril is not to
be tolerated. 1t must be met at the
outset with legislation. All at once
Senator Gormsn's feverish fears cause
him to sniff danger from the judiciary,
and he frantically protests that "the
courts shall not be armed with powers
as arbitrary as those of the czar Of Rus
sis." Senator German was born and
brought up on the constitution, but he
does not pretend that Judge speer's de-
cision, that the receiver of the Central
railroad of Georgia shall carry on the
companY's contract with the engineers,
is violation Of the constitution. The
ground of his deep alarm is not in that
direction, for once in his life he forgot
the constitution, and his sole fear voiced
itself in his statement that "the judicial
branch of the government had taken the
first step which would eventually place
the railroads in possession of the gov
ernment." Even thus doth the hand
writing appear on the wall of the United
States senate. The discussion of these
mighty problems Of the near future has
invaded place where nothing but SEN
atorial courtesy, official confrmstions,
and other general good -for-nothingness
was meant to hold supreme sway.
Other object lessons will this session
of the senate incidentally bring largely
before public notice. The utter disre-
gard Of civil service, which was so loudly
boasted as something to which the great
Grover was so consecrated that it would
seem his very presence within the radius
OF the capitol would ensure. But sad to
say, no more greedy haste to chop off
heads was ever before manifested than
that shown by the decapitation of the
sppointive officers of the senate. It was
solemn and funny to listen to the
speeches on the occasion Of the passage
Of the resolution which took away the
offices from the sergeant-st alarms, the
chaplain, and the rest Of them. One
would have thought that q memorial
service was in progress, so extreme were
the eulogiums pronounced. The same
