are being robbed Of every decent COM
fort and the privilege and opportunity
to labor. These universally prevailing
conditions give pith and point to the
result of the recent elections, signifi
cant, AS it is, of more emphatic sur
prises in the neal future. The forces
and agencies arrayed against every
American interest, whose temporary
success has wrought unprecedent suf-
fering and utter dismay in every part
of the country, must soon meet in a de-
cisive contest the aroused wrath of the
nation. The practical, hard common
sense of the people can not again be
led astray by the pledges and promises
which have already proved to be the
bitterness and ashes of the Dead Sea
fruit, their resolution can not be
shaken by the cajoleries of the Dmeo-
cratic spell binders, nor their judgment
eclipsed by Il new set of vagaries how
ever plausible they may be, that will
surely be incubated by q discredited
party to perpetuate its reign of mis-.
chief and ruin.

NOT QUITE FAR ENOUGH.

In a free silver Democratic conven-
ton recently held at Nashville Hon.
John Allison said that the party must
disclaim all responsibility for the acts
of the Administration. Now, if the
Tennessee Democrats follow the advice
of our old friend, and at the same time
disclaim all responsibility for one Peter
Turney, and prove the sincerity of
these disclaimers in the future, they
will stand in among the sheep some
bright day." however much it may sur
prise them.
Mr.. Aliison's advice is good as far as
it goes, but it don't go far enough.
Whatever may be thought or said in
disparagement of the President he is
not a beneficiary of a fraud and a rape
upon the inviolate sanctity of the bal
lot box. Turney is the chief sinner and
the black monument of his infamous
crime towers to a height where vision
is lost when we consider the vicious
lndiscretlons of the President. Turney
is the man for Tennessee Democrats to
be ashamed of.

1t is proper for me, however, in this
departure, as the Business Manager of
the Herald and Tribune, to state that the
present change is in the interest of a bet
ter newspaper.
1t is simply physically impossible for
me to act as the Business Manager and
mechanical head of the paper, and also
to write for its readers editorials that
keep step with the swing of marching
events. The Country Newspaper is a
rising power. Even the city press ac-
knowledges o it has a peculiar field
of its own-a right to be an organ of
opinion, as well as to furnish country
news. This l~iberalizing tendency is in
line with an Independent, clean, newsy,
country paper, that speaks its opinions,
but speaks for the public welfare. The
Herald and Tribune will advocate in the
future, as it has done in the past, local
improyements-good public roads, good
public schools, civil order and integrity,
patriotism, and the new Historical So
ciety, and progress generally.
The new change also means more finan-
cial outlay for newspaper material. We
ask subscribers and advertisers to meet
us half way. Give us your help. We
will give you a paper well worth paying
for; full of public spirit, full of State
and County News; also, containing the
trend of public opinion and events
abroad. Remember, we are on the thresh-
hold of important events. The Tonnes
see Centennial is really a local affair
the election of NEW Congress and a new
President to direct the affairs of seventy
millions of people, is both local and ma
tional. The opinions to be expressed by
the Herald and Tribune will be IT'S opin-
ions, honestly believed to be for the So
cial and political betterment and adj
vancement of the people among whom
1t lives. Respectfully,
FRANK l.. F~ORNsHELL.

An Abuse of Power.

The exercise of executive clemency
by Gov. Turney in the remission of the
fine against Capt. Frank Smith, which
was imposed as the penalty for his bru
tai attack upon Senator Butler, lie l.
defensible from any right point of view.
1t is simply an arbitrary setting aside
of a just judgment of a court, and is
an act which does violence to the law
itself. If the offense committed had
been reversed, if Butler had slipped
up on Smith and attacked him without
warning, and for like alleged provoca-
ton, we seriously doubt whether the
Governor of the State would have found
reasons enough to set aside the iudg-
ment rendered in v%indication of a
broken law and in punishment of a
grave offense against the peace and
digdity of the State. Nashville Ban
