Preparing Tor the Change.

WASHINGTON, Aug. Preparations for carrying into effect the new tariff bill are going forward at the treasury department with all possible speed. Sec retary Carlisle has already prepared q blank and it is now in the hands of the printer, Several clerks are also hard at work preparing an index for the new bill. This will occupy about % pages in the new tariff volume. which for the convenience of customs officials will contain both the new law and the Me- Kinley act of 1890. It is expected that by the time the new bill becomes a law all preliminary work, save that of issu- ing instructions to the customs and in. ternal officials. will have been done.
 President Cleveland returned to Wash ington Wednesday night at S:25 and it is expected he will give cut some intima- ton of what he will ao with the bill. Members of the cabinet are urging the president to sign the bill, and the same time write a message commenting the senate and the house for their action. They say the house stood by him on sil- yer, on Hawaii, on the tariff and on every other thing and now it is due that body that he should say something re- ieying it from the odium that seems to attach to tue senate bill.

The excess of the governments
expenditures for the months of Sep
TENDER and October was 1000, 600
and il is estimated that for the
months of November and Deem
Der the deficiency will be equally
as great, as for the last two months.
If this be true, another bond issue
will be necessary. Of course de-
mocracy is not responsible for the
depleted treasury nor the great IN
crease in the current expenses OF
the government, caused since the
expiration Of Cleveland's first presi-
Dental term of Office, by republican
Legislation, but 1t is, nevertheless,
charged with the present state OF
affairs. If the 800, 100000 sur
plus which was turned over to the
republicans at the beginning of Har-
risons' administration, by demo
Gratis, had not been squandered, and
the annual expenses of the govern
ment had not been increased hun
dreds of millions of dollars, there
would have been an increase in the
surplus instead of a deficiency In
revenue. When we consider the
record of the republican party, we
are amazed that they should again
be victorious and the only reason
that we can conceive of why south
ern people and erstwhile democrats
have supported republican nOmi'
nees is similar to that given by the
Savior for praying for those who
took part in his crueifxion, viz:
"For they know not what they do"
But there is consolation in the fact
that ''as long as there is life, there
is hope" so we are hopeful that
their eyes may be opened ere an
other election is held.

their welfare he is most intereste'
in. He has incurred the hatred OF
many because of his sound democ-
racy, and his refusal to be swayet
by those who have attempted to
outstrip even the populites in thei'
endeavor to have the country infa
ted with a cheap currency. Since
its organization, the democratic par
ty has ever been an advocate OF
sound money. It's founder was of
the same faith. In 1905, when he
noticed that gold was leaving the
country, Thomas Jefferson ordered
the suspension of silver coinage,
which act was Endorsed by those
who had elevated him to the presi-
dency. But when Grover Cleve-
land, on being indicted into Office
found the country confronted with
surroundings similar to those of
1905, and convened congress in
extra session to prevent the further
outflow of gold, he brought down
upon himself the indignation of
many, who claiming to be Jefferso-
MAN democrats, characterized the
president as a ''Stuffed Prophet"
and traitor to his party. When
Mr.. Cleveland has as his examplar
in resorting to heroic measures in
order to prevent this country from
going to silver basis, no less a
parsonage than the founder of the
democratic party, he can not be
truthfully charged with departing
from democratic principles or demo
cratic faith. While the BULLETIN
does not attribute the democratic de-
feat as verdict either in favor or
against unlimited free coinage of sill
yer, however, it offers no consolation
to the free silver element for the
republican paaty, like tie dem
cratic party, favOrs sound
currency. There is no doubt that
the panic which swept over thu
country soon after the democratic
rule, had something to do with the
defeat of the democratic party, al
though it was the result of republi-
can misrule. But in our opinion,
the browning act which caused I'M
rest and dissatisfaction in democrat
ic ranks was the refusal of the SEN
ate to pass, without amendments,
the Wilson tariff bill, together with
the golden moments lost in wrang-
ling over that measure. Although
the present tariff law is not per-
feet measure, and is not what the
people demanded nor what Presi-
der Cleveland contended for, still
had it been passed in time for the
people to realize its superiority over
the Mckinley law and in time for
business to adjust itself to the new
revenue law, the result, in all pro-
liability, would have been very diff
\ ferent.

A HORRIBLE tragedy was
enacted in Nashville We'd
nesday evening. Chancellor
Allison was shot and instant
ly killed by Clerk and Mas
ter George K. Whitworth.
The weapon used was a
double barrel shot gun, load
ed with buckshot. After
committing the terrible deed,
Whitworth threw down the
gun, and drawing a pistol
from his pocket, sent two
balls through his own body,
from the effects of which he
will die. Whitworth was
driven to desperation by dis
appointment. Judge Allison
intended, at the expiration of
Whitworth's term, which was
yesterday, to appoint his son
young Allison, to the posi-
ton of Clerk and Master.
Whitworth was very active
in securing the election OF
Judge Allison, spending COLI
siderable money in the can
vas, and expected to retain
the place.

FROM official and unofficial re-
turns, il appears that ii. Clay Ev-
ans has been elected governor OF
Tennessee by small plurality OF
1854. In East Tennessee, republi-
cans arc charged with perpetrating
frauds. Gov. Turney still has
hopes, and thinks that the official
count will prove his election. Be
this as it may, whoever is honestly
and fairly elected should fill the pO-
s;tioo. IF Turney is defeated, it
u,ill be a valuable, but sad expert
once to the people of Tennessee.
His administration has been one of
