lowing letter. which was delivered TO

directors adjourned.
Gentlemer--I have just been informed
that my services of vice president and
general manager of the Maine Central
railroad will no longer be needed. i am
deeply touched. This act OF kindness SO
nobly conceived and delicately consum-
mated teaches me that all is not base
and sordid in this world, and that the
human heart, when connected with the
boston and Maine railroad, Is capable of
high and lofty impulses. Wishing you
a pleasant Journey TO Boston this after.

Maine intends to remove the headquar-
ters OF the Maine Central from Portland
to Boston, and this rumor has not been
denied by the Maine Central directors
who attended yesterdays. meeting, al
though no vote causing such a removal
has yet been passed.
Mr.. Tucker. in an interview granted
press representatives last night, said:

wrote the following for the CONNER
cIal, of which he was the editor:
Every clerk, bookkeeper or other
salaried employe in any of the com

in the land is a creditor, and many
millions of dollars are due every
week from the employing classes to
the employed.
Any depreciating of the currency
would fall heavily on this poor and
deserving class, unless their wages
were increased in proportion to the
increased cost of necesssaries of life:
and the history of every period of In

are the last to respond to an increase
in the supply of money.

IN the Comptroller of the
Currency's report for 1891,
there is a table purporting to
contain all the loanable funds
of nearly every banking and
money-lOaning institution of
the country. An examina-
ton of these figures shows
that the loanable funds in the
Eastern States ranges from
5000 per head in New Jer-
sey to S361 ~ in Rhode Is
land, while the Southern
States run from $3.50 in Ar
kansas, the lowest, to $1,000
in Louisiana, the highest.
The figures show that the
states where the greatest
number of manufactures are
located, have the largest
amount of loanable funds,
while those with the lesser
number of such enterprises
have the least capital. No
stronger proofcan be present
ed proving the correctness of
Grover Cleveland's position

The dissention in the dem

THE dissention in the dem
ocratic party at present is
truly great, but in 1886 the
disruption of the whig party
was greater. There were
during that year four factions
within the wing party and
each nominated a candidate
for the presidency. All four
were defeated and Van Blu
rem, the democratic nominee,
was elected. The party then,
though comparatively in It's
infancy, exercised better
judgment than now. Indeed,
the party leaders seem to
have failed to profit by past
occurrences. Part} factions
can only be considered as
evil omens. The whig party
is now numbered with the
things of the past, and, other
political parties that husband
the spirit Of discord have no
assurance that a like fate will
not befall them. Conserva-
tism is the only remedy to
prevent such an end. How
careful, therefore, should
those entrusted in shaping
the party policy be, and un-
der no circumstances should
the ship be launched on
strange seas. The past proves
that to attempt to stultify
party tenents means nothing
less than division, and with
but few exceptions the re-
suit of division is disaster.

Qualified Voters.

The following instructions have
been sent out by the State Demo
cratic Executive Committee, for the
guidance of the officers of the cleo
ton, to be held November 3, 1896:
QUALIFIED VOTERS.
Every male person twenty one
years of age, who is a citizen of the
United States, and who has been a
resident of the State for twelve
months, and of the County for six
months next preceding the day of
election is entitled to vote, subject
to the following qualifications;
No man who has been convicted
of an infamous offence and has not
been restored to citizenship, is emit
tied to vote.
No man who is liable to poll tax
can vote, unless he has paid the poll
tax for the year 1895.
Men who were fifty years of age
prior to January 10, 1895, are not
required to pay any poll tax, neither
are young men who have attained
twenty-one years of age since Janua-
ry 10, 1895 required to pay any poll
tax, nor those who become citizens
of the State after January 10, 1895.
Men who are deaf or dumb or
blind, or who have been relIevd by
the County Court, from the payment
on account of inability to earn live
hood, are not liable to pay a poll tax.
All other persons, except those
hereinbefore mentioned, are liable
to pay a poll tax, and before they
can vote must furnish to the judges
of election evidences that their poll
tax for 1895 has been paid.
1t is immaterial whether name
appears on the books of the County
Trustee or not; he is nevertheless IL
able for the poll tax. Upon the 9th
er hand, if he has been wrongfully
assessed, he is not obliged to pay
the poll tax.
The evidence which the voter
must furnish to the judges of cleo
tions that he has paid his poll tax,
in order to entitle him to vote, shall
be o. his original poll tax receipt,
(2)or a duplicate duly certified by
the Trustee, (3) the duly authentica-
ted certificate of the Trustee where
the tax has been paid to constable,
or az his own affidavit in writing
that he has paid his poll tax and has
lost or misplaced his receipt.

the result OF the convention,

1t seems that the vote of Hay
wood had been instructed for
Green, but in the convention
it was cast for King, which
with the vote of Shelby nom-
mated him. Protests were
made by the friends of Green,
and the chairman ordered
that the vote of Haywood be
changed from King to Green.
A motion was made to appeal
from the decision of the chair

State Reform atorY School

Ex-GOx, Bob Taylor takes a
strong stand for a state reformato-
ry school, and says that when he be-
comes governor of Tennessee no child
under IA years of age shall enter the
penitentiary. This position receives
the appreciation of every right-think-
ing citizen of the state. The boy or
girl of tender age confined in the
penitentiary for a term has not the
rightful appreciation of the punish
ment and from association with har-
dened criminals comes out a worse
enemy to society than when confined.
The reform school does not damn
forever the inmates, but, instead,
leaves the way open for a period of
high moral training, and makes a
useful life not only possible, but
very probable, ahead of them.
Gov. Taylor is advocating the
right principle in demanding a re-
formatory school for Tennessee, and
his position will gain the sympathy
of every Christian man and woman
in the state. u acksOn Wing.

Gov. CULBERsoN, of Tex
as, in attacking Gen. Buck
ner's war record, has, per-
haps to his surprise, raised a
storm among the old Confed-
crate soldiers of his state,
which may be the cause of
the Governor losing many
votes in Texas. The uprising
of the old ex-Confederates,
because of the attack, shows
that political differences are
not sufficient to sever the ties
of friendship and brotherly
love existing between those
who wore the gray and fought
together against a common
enemy on many bloody bat
tie fields. A fact that the
old soldiers know full well, is
that the understanding were
not permitted to hold posi-
tions of honor and trust in
their ranks. A retraction of
the charge has been demand
ed of the Governor by Gen.
Buckner's eX-comrades in
arms.
