"A house divided against itselfcan not stand"
Every day that passes now without
the passage of the Wilson Bill floats
the Democratic party nearer the verge
of absolute ruin.
The great landslide of year ago
meant that the people wanted a change
in the tariff. Are we able to give it to
them? Will the Democratic leaders
m Congress pout and whine over the
matter like pack Of spoiled children,
crying because each one wanted the
biggest piece of pie? The party must
be unit and be it at once. Pass the
bill and pass it at once.
The people are tired of this wran-
Cling over insignificant detail. The
bill is all right, in the main, from q
Democratic standpoint, and should
meet with no opposition from that
source.
The condition Of the country has
reached that stage where it is not so
much question Of what is done, but
when it is done. The common people
have stuck to the Democratic party
until it got into absolute power. Is
that gigantic oak OF economical gov
eminent going to begin splitting
and dying at the top, shedding it's dis
membered and dead boughs upon the
heads Of those supporting it below?
Now is the time to take the tide at
its flood and lead the great Democratic
party on Ito glorious ascendency in
stead of standing on the bank arguing
about why there is q dryness about
dust and a wetness about water.
These conflicting forces will certainly
produce mud if halt is not called
before they come in contact. Why
cavil about small things? Are we a
party of heterogeneous cranks? Are
we Moses to die in sight OF the
promised land? Is the great phalanx

What Arc We Coming TOP


The jury at Bristol has just scQuit-
ted Mat Davis, colored, for numbering
his wife and her paramour. Are we
returning to barbarism? What man
is justi6able in killing Lis wife in this
enlightened sge OF woman's emanci.
patton Tor any crime whatever. The
law says it would have been murder
il he had stopped when he put a ball
into the brain Of Sherman, then what
would it cay when the next step was
taken? Society is better rid OF The
man who could kill his wife under
any circumstances. Heis a murderer
tho most damnable that ever drew
blood, and should be hung 50 high
that Hannah would turn green with
envy.
The Courier says: "Nei,htr color
nor condition alters the principle; and
such occurrences are simply the vindi-
cation of that sense of right and honor
which is implanted in the breast Of
every man as an unwritten law having
precedence over all codes that have
ever been framed by the Solons OF
earth.
Yes, the same principle cropped out
in Cain when he slew his brother,
Abel, and has over-ridden every law
made to suppress it from that dark
day TO this. We do not apologize for
the wuman's perfdy but we ask what
has Davis gained? If his happiness
was destroy ed by her illicit love did
the blood OF this weak woman restore
lit? vengeance is mine, sayeth the
the Lord" No man has a right to
take tie law into his own hands The
only mitigation being when he does
lust what the law would do, if allowed
to take its course. This excused lynch,
ing for rape. What is the penalty the
law fixes on adultery? There was O
day in the dark past when a woman's
| life paid the penalty of lost virtue, but
that was when she was beast of bur
den-a slave whose life was in the
hands of her master. What is virtue
when it has to be maintained by fear
of death? The Courier thinks that
the crime of the woman deserved
death. That is more than the Courie,
intends to say. If adultery in woman
deserves death then the same is true
OF man. If some woman Of Bristol
would follow her husband to some oil
his haunts, and shoot him down, the
Courier would soon call a halt. A
man has no right, human or divine,
to kill any one, unless in self-defense
much less his wife, whom he swore to
honor and protect. Davis, no doubt,
came right straight from the house OIL
his paramount in Knoxville and killed
his wife and hers in Bristol. Yet the
Jury said he was sustaining the honor
Of his home and marital bonds and, il
he had not killed his wife he would
have been a coward. Ho committed
murder, foul murder! cowardly muir
derI Woman has ceased to be 9
beast of burden and her lie has been
taken, by christian civilization, from
the hands of her lord and master, and
lplaced in the courts OF justice. Hence
such verdict as the one rendered BY
the Bristol jury is shame to civiliza,
ton, a shame to christianity, and q
disgrace to our country. There can be
no mitigating circumstances when q
man murders his own wife. Honor
never drinks the blood OF the weak.
The Bristol jury strained at gnat
and swallowed a camel.
