In point OF fact. the doctrine which the
Times sets forth is as pernicious as any
thing we have seen In print for q long
time. We do not allude 10 the spirit OF
abjcct sycophancy displayed. for that IL a
matter OF taste, but TO the claim set
forth that the South ought to take a back
seat In Congress and permit Its "con-
Quercrs" 70 dictate and control legisia-
ton. This doctrine Is so new and 80 ex-
tremely vicious that we wonder at the
mind that conceived It and ct the folly

In print. We should be glad 10 zee our

What strange philosophy is this that
the southern members should take back
scats)? IL there a southern man anywhere
who could utter the sentiment which this
editorial expresses without the blush OF
shame mantling his checks?
Why. because we have been conquered.
Is that any reason why we should lie eu-
pinely on our backs and see taken away
through criminal legislation the little pro-
perry which the South, through years OK
weary toll, has accumulated under the
worst circumstances which ever frowned
upon a brave people? Because we have
been whipped. is that any reason why we
should stand by like towards with closed
mouths and see ourselves robbed? What
wonderful metamorphosls does this editor
recommend, that a people who once
fought for their rights as CALAMITY ana
dauntlessly as ever nation did, that men
whose fathers died as fearlessly as ever
heroes died, should be too cowardiy TO
lift even their voices against legislation
which would take from them their all,
p.titul as IL may be.-Lagrange (Ga-)

When the accident occurred II seemed
that an earthquake had shaken the en-
tire vicinity and pieces Of the buildings
and machinery were hurled great dis
tances from the site OF the tanis'ry.
Other buildings located near the boiler
room were badly damaged.
There had been trouble with the
boiler for some time and yesterday
John Parker, foreman Of the plant, wan
called TO the boiler-room 10 see if il
couldn't be fixed. 1t was found that
the water supply could not be satisfac-
Il ltr..l
BY the time the tannery opened for the
day IL was thought that the boiler was
all right
Five minutes later Mike Parker en-
tered the boiler-room and ordered that
the whistle be blown to start the works.
The rope attached TO the whistle was
pulled and instantly there was a fear
full explosion. The big iron smokestack
on the boiler-house was blown high into
the air and fell across the roof OF the
shop and the tall brick chimney fell
crushing the engine-room.
When the smoke and dust cleared
away a scene OF wreck and ruin was re-
vealed Men hurried from all parts of
the town and the work OF removing
those buried under the ruins was COM
menced.
The piteous cries OF the injured men
pinned under the debris urged the res
cuers on TO rapid work and in a short
time the bodies Of four men had been
removed and five Of the injured had
been taken out
IL was then found that one Of the
four boilers had been blown TO pieces
completely wrecking the boiler-house
and demolishing several buildings near
by. The head Of the boiler fell 300
yards from the tannery and the boiler
tubes were scattered in every direction.

He took me down the river and about twenty
miles into the bay. The weather was fine
