Tennessee,s Centennial.

Tennessee is the first state to propose to make memorable the one huudreth anniversary of it's admission into the Union, and through the efficiency of thorough organization of several years standing, the idea will be carried out to completeness that has rarely been attain ed in public denominations. Tennessee was admitted June l, l796. and the ex- ercises at Nashville, the capital of the state, on June l, 1896. will constitute a National event. On that day the Ten nessee Centennial exposition will be formally inaugurated, and on May l, 1897. the exposition will be open to continue six months. There will be fourteen principal buildings of beauti- ful design and of large dimensions, and made of some white material resemb- ling stone. The grounds also will be beautifully laid out, with lakes. in fine style. The centennial celebration June l, 1896, will, it is hoped, be grand af- fair. The president, governors of the states, and prominent men from all over the country have been invited to be present.

Notable Men.

Seldom. if ever, has a convention brought together such & distinguished body of men as that which will assemble in Fremont Temple, June 2S.26.
 With it's program but partially made up. the array of great names is dag zling one. Dwight l.. Moody will have charge of the devotional services each morning, and will conduct noon meeting daily. E. r. Jacobs, of Chi cago, will be everywhere conspicuous in word and work. Rev Dr John Hall, of New York, will tower in the Conven- ton like king among men. Aud John Wsnamaker, of Philadelphia, will bring the inspiration of man who, while carrying immense business burdens, can find both time aud heart to devote to the work of the Sunday. school.
 All these and many more professional men, business men, statesmen. iurists, governors. and legislators will be found the affectionate friends of tue children, and will take active part in this great International Sunday School Conven. ton to be held in Boston next month.
 The committee are already assured that two thousand delegates will be in attendance, and these with their friends will surely crowd every service.

New Milford,s Condition

An editorial in the New Milford Ga zette of the 18th inst gives the follow ing diagnosis of. and remedy for, New Milford's case:
 The continuance of dull times in this vicinity will not be without ultimate benefit if it shall teach the citizens that the crying evil of the past few years has been tendency to overdo. Too much enterprise or ill directed enterprise Is as bad in its effects as too much conserva- tism. The farmers have pushed the tobacco industry to an unreasonable and harmful extent, and have also cul- tivated habits of e1travagance. They have not learned to do only what they can safely do and have badly exposed themselves to the dangers of too much indebtedness, The village people have tried to do more business than could be done in the town and have burdened themselves with institutions and organ nations beyond the-capacity of their pocket books to sustain in a comforta- ble manner. Economy, foresight, practical calculation, adjustment of means to possible ends are the things that now demand study; not booming enterprise in . field ridiculously too small for it.

To-day there is spirit of good feel ing among Canaan folk. There is very little personal animosity. Everyone wishes his neighbor we'll. People meet on the street with smiles and friendly greetings. The tariff. the silver ques- ton and local politics are discussed in m ordinary tone of voice.
 "Look on this picture and then op this"
 Next fall the Republicans will be calling the Democrats fools; the Demo- crats will be calling the Republicans robbers. Men will wonder why their neighbors can be so foolish as to SUD- port the other party. A man will tell all the mean things he knows about another if he is on the other side. Party feeling will be strong and politi- cal questions argued with more regard for force of argument than for truth. Town election will precede the presi- dential finale and will do its part toward petty ill feeling. Then will come the national crisis" and if the other fellow ii on the winning side he will proceed to let you know of it and in many in- stances will only be satisfied until he has rubbed it in." You would do the same if you were the other fellow. Women want to get into this but fortu. nately they have not yet.
 What does this all amount to in Ca man? A lot of ill feeling that will not be eradicated before the following sum- mer. Does anyone in Canaan make any amount of money out of politicsi Does it pay to get so intensely worked up over party success, and the debata- ble question of the 'present enormous duty on tea?"
