IT seems almost certain that ex-
Secretary BAYABD will be called to
his old position as Secretary Of
State in Mr.. CLEvELAND's Cabinet
One of the arguments put forward
in favor Of Mr.. BAYARD for his old
position is that the questions now
important in foreign affairs are al
most identical with those that come
up during Mr.. CLEvELAND's former
administration.

Regular correspondence
Mr.. j. Il. Miller, Of Coxburgh, is
down taking in the dances again.
Before taking his final leave of
absence for the another II months,
Santa Claus paid Mr.. and Mrs. A.
j. Goodman a visit. It's a big boy.
Mother and child are doing well.
Owing to the floating ice in Ten
nessee River the boats have been
very irregular for the past week
Ice has been floating down the river
in blocks as large as a 10-acre field. .
Fact. And a gorge was reported
up the river last week.
We have been informed that a
new (overlapd) mail route will be
establishedsoon between Coxburgh
and Lees Point. Eagle will be the
name Of the new post-ofice at Lees
Point. 1t will be a semi-weekly
service, and will be a great conven-
fence to those who reside along the.
creek, as each citizen on the route
can put up boxes and have their
mail delivered to them.
Now that our general assembly
has come together we offer few
suggestions that ought to be Of gen
eral interest to the people Of Ben
ton County. In the first place we
need a county work-house. The
money that's paid out in the county
for keeping and feeding prisoners
would, III a few years, pay for a
sufficient work-house to accommo-
date all guilty of petty offenses,
such as disturbing public worship,
carrying concealed weapons, etc.
Then, at reasonable wages, small
fines could soon be paid; it would
be so much more healthful to have
employment than to be confined in
a close jail as it is now; and, be-
sides, it will not be so degrading to
the rising generation. At present
| when there is an indictment against
a boy either his parents pay the fine
(Which is not often the case or he
languishes in jail to pay the fine al
% cents per day with cost Of 4C
cents per day to the county. But il
compelled to work out this fine, the
penalty for his rashness III violat
; ing the law would be more deeply
impressed on his mind. On the
: other hand, if boys parents o.
his friends pay the fine to get hin
5 out of Jail, he knows that they vii
5 do so again, and he is as wild a
t ever. Improperly managed a work
| house would be a source OF revenu,
= and at the same time lessen tn,
tendency toviolate thepeace Of law
/ abiding citizens, and the count,
S would not thus be burdened witt
the expense of bringing petty of
= tenders Of the law before the tri
bunal of. justice. This is a subjec
e in which we are all alike interested
= and we would suggest that other
give their views on this and othe
= subjects that are now agitating tn
+ public mind With the permission
of the editors Of The CHRoNICL W
would like to see these questions c

WHIsKY. or NO WHlsKY-

Itseems that the only inducement
held out to the people Of Camden in
the petition which has been circu-
lated here this week to re-charter
the town is the promise that whisky
will be sold here, and it will not be
necessary to send orders for the
article to Huntingdon, Waverly, or
elsewhere. This is all there is in
it, and the question resolves itself
thusly: Do we, or do we not, want
whisky sold in Camden? Now it
is hardly necessary to state here
that the people Of Camden gave up
their charter to rid themselves of
the whisky octopus which had SUI
preme control, and they are loath
to renew their experience while the
circumstances and incidents con-
nected with past history of corpor-
ate governments are still fresh in
their memory.
We would suggest to the pro-
meters Of the move that this single
and the only feature of the petition
has, in every instance, prevented
them from securing anything like
an endorsement Of majority of
the property-owners Of the town.
There is no question but what
the people of Camden, with proba-
bly, a few exceptions, are in favor
Of a municipal government for the
town, provided it embodies all the
essential features Of a well regulat-
ed municipality. We feel safe in
saying, too, that we voice the senti-
ment of majority OF the property
owners Of Camden in asserting that
until they have some assurances
that a municipal government will
be controlled in the interest Of the
town in general and afford them
protection as well as looking to the
matter Of public improvements, all
efforts to secure their endorsement
will be submerged by cold water,
just as they were u months ago.
There is one way to do a thing
Raise an issue with whoop anC
go through under whip and spur
but that is not the way to deal will
a grave question like a municipal
government
} What assurances have we tina
the town will be governed on tn,
broad plane Of progress and i'm
provement, with protection for al
= interests alike?
: Are the people of Camden read,
to be taxed to salary officers of
municipal government, to builC
good streets and sidewalks, cree
E substantial bridges, etc?
Have they counted up the cos
! and the enormous outlay necessar
! to carry on municipal government
Y The subject is a local question
and will admit of general discus
. sion. The CHRONICLE is the orga
:, of no faction, but is the champio

The Democrats of the general
assembly are on the right track
when they set out to reform the in
famous fee system, which lisa matter
of grave Importance to the people
of Tennessee. When wrongs are
imbedded in organic law there is
no hope for permanent relief except
by reform or repeal of the law. 1t
is always right and is the sound
policy of the Democratic party to
strike at the root of all evils which
af1ict the people, and the people of
Tennessee look TO the Democrats of
the general assembly to redress the
peoples wrongs. Begin with the
fec system, and wipe it out.

The Wheel Store Broken into the Third
Time in Three Weeks.
News was received here Tuesday
that the Wheel Store at Big Sandy,
was robbed last Sunday night, the
thieves taking a small amount of
merchandise but failing to secure
any money. Admittance to the
store was gained through a window.
This makes the third time the store
has been robbed within the past
three weeks.
Ed. Conway, a 15-year-old boy,
who has been employed on the
"boarding car on the Louisville
and Nashville Railroad, was arrest

goes by the name of Dutch" who
forced him to rob the store.

TRIED TO KILL THE PRIEST.
Father Barabass Dragged Into the Street and
Nearly Beaten to Death.

BALTIMORE, July 29.-Father Bsrabasa,
pastor of the Holy Rosary Church, Polish.
was very roughly handled by some of his
parshioners this morning. His priestly
robes were torn from his body and he was
severely beaten. Had it not been for the
intervention of the police Father Barabasa
might have been killed. Two previous
attempts had been made to dispose of
the priest. The trouble at Holy Rosary
Church commenced some months ago by q
division of the congregation over the sp.
poin tment OF Father Barabasa to the pas
torate. He was bitterly opposed by one
faction, but took charge of the church, and
since that time there has been constant
pickering. A rather serious attack oc-
Cured a couple of weeks ago. the priest
and sexton being set upon by few of the
paTishOners.
AS Father BarAbasa entered the church
this morning he was attacked by two men
and dragged into the street. Here O great
crowd of people had gathered. as If by pre-
meditation. Michael Kismonski attacked
the priest and encouraged she mob to offer
violence. The police appeared and held
the mob at bay while relnforcements were
secured. Several arrests weremade. Father
Barabasa will be guarded by special de-
tail until the trouble is settled.
Serious trouble is feared by the police
and an entire squad will be detailed to pre-
serve the peace. About i've thousand Poles
are In the vicinity.
