coxsrexMESrs TO THE FREE ZONE.

Washington, with reference t0Suspen-
 sion of the privilege of shipment in
 bond through the United States of
 foreign merchandise consigned to the
 free zone of Mexico.
 A careful reading of the circular
 will disclose that the meat thereof
 lies in the concluding sentence of the
 next to the last paragraph, viz; "Mer-
 chandise consigned to places within
 the limits of the free zone must be en
 tered and appraised at the port of or
 riginal importation. and may be for
 warded under warehouse ahd transpor- tatiOn entry, to ports on the frontier
 where entry for exportation can be
 made in the usual manner" That
 means that the American duties
 levied at the port of original importa-
 tion are cancelled upon entry for ex-
 portation, and goods consigned to the free zone can continue to cross the
 United States without payment of American duties. The consignee is
 put to a little additional trouble and expense in having his consignments examined and appraised at the origi-
 mol port of entry, and making another entry for eyportation here at the frontier This practically nulllfies the suspension of the privilege of 1 shipment in bond through the United | States of merchandise, goods and | wares consigned to the free zone of Mexico.
 No one at Nogales is kicking at this notification of the unwise suspension made by the last congress. It was direct blow at the trade of this place, and no one is sorry to see it abrogat- ed But still the business man who has been accustomed to seeing the af- fairs of the government conducted in a business like way through an entire generation twhen the republican par ty was in power cannot help lament ing the impotence and utter lack of what our friends across the border would denominate ''saber that the present democratic administration has demonstrated in this matter, as in everything else it has attempted.
 The mortifying fact is again pre- sented that the democratic party can not do anything right. It is absolut- ly party of negation-a brake upon the wheels of progress. Machinery of any kind-whether governmental or mechanical-is run by power not with brake. The republican party has always been the motive power which has kept the American govern mental machine in operation, smooth ly, expeditiously and effectively. In . 1892 the people voted to run it by the , brake, and everything has heen going , to the devil just as fast as possible $ ever since.
 Under wise system of reciprocity the republican party extended the ( trade of the United States all over , the world and wldened the demand [ for American productions by hun ( lreds of millions of dollars annually. $ The democracy has put stop to all i that and has caused adoption by all | nations of policies of retaliation which [ Ire working untold damage to Amerl- V ;an interests. f
 The republican party extended $ American influence everywhere, and S .aused all the nations of the western t world to look up to this as a guide and V mentor. The democratic party has lrawn upon this nation the execration # all civilized nations on earth except f treat Britain. f

There is grand future in store
for this part OF the south and Blount
county is bound to get her share of
the good things passing around, as
her situation is. among the most favor
able. Well blessed with water and
soil that viii average with the best in
Ibis section, our crops are always
good and never is there an entire fail
ure. With work and industry the
land here can be. Brought up to a
high state Of cultivation with a great
deal less expense than the more fer
tile 9oii OF the great northwest can be
irrigated. Here, as sure as a man
puts his seed in the ground he is 60
ing to raise crop, while there with
irrigation, there is still great doubt
as to the crop, for those scorching
hot winds, Or The grass hoppers are
still to take in to consideration. This
is to our mind, the ideal farming coun-
try, neither too hot nor to cold a
splendid place for all fruits which
grow in a temperate climate and a
place where all kinds of vegetables
and grains give good yield at as lit
tie expense as any place in the world,
this country is bound to attract the
attention of those unfortunate farm
ers who are starving to death IL the
west.
Besides being an agricultural coun,
try of great promise, we have an I'M
limited supply Of timber, and wood Is
plentiful. No danger of any one
freezing to death even if the Murcury
did take a fool notion to go down be-
lew Zero IS or 80 degrees. While
our mountains are bursting with coal,
/ iron, marble and slate.
Our county is also manufacturing
county and will grow still more in
I
this line, thus giving farmers a steady
and sure home market, without any
high freight rates before getting the
farm produce TO market.
The sheep industry could be
made paying one in this county,
and already the hog industry brings
to this county thousands of dollars.
Feed is cheep and profits are large.
Last Saturday the South Knoxville
Stock yard handled $50 Hogs aver
aging 800 pounds, which were sold by
the farmers of Blount county to pack
ers at Knoxville. These hogs
brought Accents per pound and
that lot brought into the county the
snug little sum of $3,37s.oo. Not SC
bad for one day, was it1 Such little
items as that mean something anC
does us good all over and makes us
glad to be here.
The TINES believe in this county
and she ought to have a display o
her resources at the coming celebra
ton Of the States tooth birthday SC
she can draw a part Of the capita
which is gonig to pour into the South
in the nearfnture. Thank God you
are in Blount County Tennessee,
and try topush her to the front al

BLOOD IN HER EYE.
Mary Sanders Attempts Murder Because Her Cstton Was Not Ginned
 When She Wanted

Mary Sanders is the name of a | negress who lives near Altheimer. Mary owns farm and is pretty well fixed in this worlds goods. She is a large, powerful woman, nearly white and has the reputation of having very high temper, and to- tally devoid of the feeling known as l fear.
 Last Saturday Mary had some of her cotton hauled to the gin of MT. M. L. Clayton, near Altheimer, to be ginned A negro man named Alex ! Whiteside is in charge of the gin. He ginned all of Mray's cotton that was at the gin and then began gin- ming for another party. Soon after this wagon containing some more of Mary's cotton arrived and about 1 the same time she rode up on horse- back. She inquired of Whiteside why he stopped ginning on hercot- ton, and was informed that the first who came would be first served at that gin. This angered the woman and she cursed Whiteside and finally struck him several blows accross 1 the head and shoulders with q rid l ing whip that she carried in her hand W hen she did this Whiteside slapped her on theface with his open hand. By this time the woman was in a dreadful passion, and mounted her horse, saying that she would go home and arm herself and would then come back and kill whiteside.
 In about an hour she returned to the gin, dismounted and walked upi the platform. Whiteside was standing near the gin attending to his duties. Mary saw him, and without word began to draw a pistol which she had concealed in her dress. Mfr. Clayton saw her, and knowing of her threat to kill White side, attempted to prevent her from drawing the weapon. She warned him not to come near her and said that if he did she would kill him Constable Busby, fortunately, was near by, and as the woman drew the pistol and aimed it at Whiteside he
 ran to her and knocked up her arm,
 and when the weapon was fired the
 bullet sped wide of it's mark. A
 tussle between the infuriated negress and the office for possession | of the pistol then followed. In the
 scuffie the pistol was discharged and
 the ball passed through one of the
 woman's fingers and badly cut another. The officer, with assistance, f5nally got possession of the weapon and placed the woman under arrest. She was cared before Q magistrate who released her on her own reconnaissance. Her trial will come up this afternoon, on the charge of asaaulttO kill.

BELIEVED TO BE CRAZY.
H. J. Gregory, The Psmbroier's Clerk Brought Back to Pine Bluff A Handsome Watch Found in the
 Cell Occupied
 by Him.

H. J. Gregory, Secretary of the First National Pawnbroker Con- pany, of Little Rock, was brought back to this city Sunday afternoon, by Detective Sam Speight, of Little Rock. The Detective and prisoner came down to identify the diamonds and jewelry that was stolen from the Pawnbroker Company last week by Gregory, and which the latter threw in the gutter while on his way to jail in charge of an officer, the diamonds and jewelrv having been found by an honest Irishman by the name of Dave O'Connor.
 Gregory is believed to be insane, and as he has served the Pawnbroker Company faithfully for nineteen years, he will not be prosecuted.
 On his way to the jail yesterday afternoon Gregory pointed out to the officer the place where he had thrown the diamonds and where, later, they were found.
 Notwithstanding the fact that the officers carefully searched the cell in the Jefferson County jail that had been occupied by Gregory during his imprisonment Friday and Saturday, last evening when he was again incareerated in the cell, he ut once produced valuable watch that had been secreted there by him.
