Perhaps the discovery
that the country would be
ridden down the hellward
slope" with the populist
leaders astride," was made
by the editor of the CONNER
cial Appeal since his partici-
pating in a convention with
one of the leaders of the par
ty "who would damn any
cause in any way identified
with them" Mr.. Mellow
ell was very much iden-
titled with the Memphis Con-
vention, hence if the asser-
ton of the Memphis Com
mercial be true, the cause
favored by that convention
is damned" As the Com
mercial Appeal asserts that
the populists are not bimet-
alists but nonmetalists, an
explanation as to the differ
ence on the financial ques-
ton between that party,
which is characterized as
'simply a combination Of
born fools and high fever, y
and the 16 to 1 silverites
would be timely and read
with interest.

The Memphis Commercial

says:
The wild and crazy schemes of
the populist leaders would damn
any cause in any way identified
with them. They are the worst
enemies the free coinage of silver
has ever had. They are not BIZ
metalists but non-metalists. No kind
of metallic money could live in the
storm of rag money these bOreal
patriots would blow down upon the
country. There can't be free coin
age of silver and free coinage of
shirt tails at the same time. AS the
one thing that is worse than tyrany
is anarchy, so the one thing that is
worse than gold-buggery is popu-
lism. Put the PETERS, the Waites,
the Burkltts, the Kolbs and the
McDowells astride the back of the
country and they would ride it
down the hellward slope like a lu-
matte on a mad elephant. A wild
bull in a china shop would appear
as calm as a dead ass compared to
the populist party running amuck
among the laws of the land, making
wild sport of the blazing govern
ment and bearing aloft the entrails
of the constitution on its spreading
horns. Populism is simply a COM
bination of born fool and high fe-
yer.
Only short time ago an
invitation was issued in this
county to all irrespective of
former party affiliations" to-
attend the free silver conven-
ton in Memphis. Many of
the irrespective of party affil-
iators did attend the con-
vention, and among the num-
Der was Jno. III. Mcdowell, |
who, it is said, sat upon the
during the delibera-
lions of that convention with |
the editor of the Memphis
Commercial. At that time
there were no visible signs of
any eruption between Nc
Dowell and Carmack and for
hat reason it is hard to con-
,eive the cause that brought
'orth the TRADE and abuse of
Mcdowell and "the irrespec-
i've of party afiliators. !"

THE BULLETIN is not at all
interested as to how the edi-
tor of the Free Press stands. F"
The queries propounded by
the Scimitar, which were re-
produced in this paper were
not as to how the editor of
the Free Press Islands," but
how he voted. AS the Free
Press has never reproduced
replies of the BULLETIN to
other papers, it has no
grounds to complain of this
paper not reproducing its re-
joinders.

A. w. WILLS, Commits
sioner General of the Tennes-
see Exposition, has issued a
circular urging the organiza-
ton of boards in every coun-
ty in the state for the pur-
pose of raising money suffi-
Gent to exhibit the resour-
ces and products of the re-
spective counties in this
State in 1896. The method
proposed for raising money
is by private subscription
and appropriations by coun-
ty courts. The Centennial
will offer a rare opportunity
to exhibit the resources and
products of the different
counties of the State. 1t is
hardly probable that a more
opportune time for adverti-
sing the State could occur
than '96. The tide of immi-
grafton, which has been west
ward for many years, has
changed, and as a conse-
quence southern land is more
sought after than any other
section of the country. Nc
doubt many homeseekers will
visit the exposition, and the
products exhibited there will
in all probability be instru.
mental in many deciding
where they will invest il
lands. Every county in the
state should be represented
AS to whether the county
courts have the right tt
make appropriations for such
a purpose, the BULLETIN be-
lieves to be questionable, but
there is no doubt that an eff
fort should be made to raise
means by private subscrip.
ton in order that Hardema1
County may be represented
The BULLETIN has nothing
to exhibit but is nevertheless
public spirited and will sub
scribe $1,000 towards raising
a fund sufficient to have Har
deman County represented

NEAR Bryan, Texas, last
week, a little girl was run
down and tramped to death.
A mob was soon organized
and ere long a negro man
was caught and hanged. Af-
ter the illegal proceedings, it
was discovered that the man
hung was entirely innocent
Of the crime. This is only
one in many instances why
mob violence should not be
countenanced. The safety
of the lives of the citizens of
this country lies in the en-
forcement of the laws enacted
for their protection, but if it

THE little meeting of the
free silverites in Nashville
the other day has furnished
amusement. The meeting
was composed of disappoint-
ed office-seekers, a few of
whom we will mention: Rice
Pierce, everybody knows
who Rice is--a twin brother
to John H. Mcdowell in pol
itics; Gus En!oe, defeated in
the Eighth Congressional
District for advocating fat
money; Casey Young, anoth-
er of the fifty cent dollar
boys who went down in de-
feat under the sledge-ham-
mer blows of that stalwart
democrat, Josiah Patterson.
Other unfortunates, who told
their tales of woe, could be
mentioned but the above is
sufficient. Democracy had
nothing to do with that
meeting. 1t was a kind of
experience meeting with
unfortunate experiences.

membership. / assure you they were
no more astonishei than the gentlemen

The truth is, the question was sprung
upon the body most Unexpectedly, ana

were 20 surprised they lost their heads,
or rapidly caang "a thcir minds, and those
in favor rushed the woman doctor
through so quickly IL made their heads
swim. Actually, the treasurer Vas ie-
quested TO east the vote Of the body,
thus making the lady's election unani-
nous. To-day the doctors are asking
how it all happened. TOR II is clearly
demonstrated that the majority are oD-
posed 10 the action. one doctor says:
The presence of the ladies did it, They
a|plauded most vociferously every speak
er on the wOman's side, and laughed most
derisively at all opposed, and said he,
nobody wants TO be laughed at, so no
one had the courage TO face the music
and yet DR.. Raleigh W. Martin, in the
battle of Gettysburg pushed furthest
into the enemies lines. but this was too
much for him; he mildly inquired If the
admission was constitutional Beng as
sured il was. NJ looked at the ladies'
and said he and Or. Taylor, and. IN fact
the entire body. would gladly adm.t
women as members. now that they knew
that they were not violating the cOnsu-
tuition. DR.. Simons made feeble pro-
test, but got no further then he was
opposed 10 female professions" The
laughter confused him. and down he sat.

best parliamentarians in the state ana
asked If they could not find relief in
reconsideration. but he save them no
