IN Hardeman County the
administration democrats
have been unfaltering in their
support of the nominees OF
the democratic party, and
the vast majority of the nom
inees have been uncompro-
missing in their advocacy of
free and unlimited coinage.
The present nominee of the
democratic party in this
State for governor is outspok-
en- in his advocacy for free
silver, still it is expected that
he will receive the support.
and no doubt will, if just
treatment is accorded, of the
vast majority of the sound
money democrats But not
withstanding their fealty to
democratic nominees, 1T is
openly declared that if Col.
Patterson is renominated it
would result in the loss of
thousands of democratic vO-
ties. In the opinion of the
BULLETIN such an assertion,
when traced to a logical con-
clusion, simply means that
unless a candidate stands up
on the populite platform,
which the free silverites are
attempting to appropriate an
to themselves,no support can
reasonably be expected from
that faction. The admins
tTation democrats are not SER
wants of any party nor fac
ton, but, aside from the sill
yer mining states, when not
in the majority, they hold.
the Dalance OF power. 1t
would, therefore, be well for
the rule or ruin element to
realize that the success of the
democratic party depends
upon fair treatment. Each
faction have rights and they
should be respected. The
BULLETIN believes that it can
safely say that no rash act
will be committed by the
administration democrats, but
if the line is drawn, the
gauge of battle will be taken
up and fought to the bitter
end.

No surprise was caused by the ac-
ton of the County Executive Com
mittee in ordering a convention for
the selection of nominee for Sher-
i'll. The BULLETIN favors a prima.
~ because no fairer means have
ever been devised to gain a full and
free expression OF voters, and, fur
thermore, it Is less calculated to en-
gender hostile feelings. Though
the WiIkes-Manson convention was
held many years ago, still there are
traces of the bitter feeling resulting
from it. 1t is true there is no rea.
son which will justify the assertion
that ties of friendship will be bro
ken and party harmony to a more
or less extent disrupted by the
holding of another convention, but
1t would be we'll to use such pre-.
cautionary means as would prevent
a recurrence, especially when anoth.

VIM This AdUnnce2

Planters throughout the South
are confronted this year with
a problem that just now shows no
signs of being easily solved, and
the veXed question is, ''What will
be the price of bagging and ties?'
The season for jobbers to lay in
their supply of bagging is during
the late winter months, but this
year, owing to the fuctuatiDg price,
wholesale merchants have, as a rule,
not followed their accustomed meth
DDS, and the result has been that
values have steadily advanced and
bagging, which ninety days ago was
quoted at 81 q Al, is now held at
81 @ &c.
In commenting on this advance
well known Front street dealer said
this morning to Scimitar reporter:
"The bag industry of the country
IS practically in the hands of two
large firms, one in Boston and the
other in New York, and while it is
denied that any understanding exists
between the two as to the price of
their product, yet it is a fact that
whenever the New York firm advan-
ces the price of bagging the Boston
cooperation Immediately follows
suit, and as the output is controlled
by them it is an easy matter for
them to advance prices, having vir-
tually no competition.
"Within the past sixty days the
price of baggIng has advanced fully
SO per cent. and offerings at the adj
vance are not as free as has marked
other seasons, and some dealers
that by September l two
pound jute bagging will be held at
u a SC.
cit will be remembered that about
seven years ago the price of bag
ging steadily advanced from 5 I-2i
to II lie, and the signs this year
point to like condition of affairs.
1T is given out by these manu-
facturers that there has been no
profit IN bagging for the past four
yearsand that present prices are only
fair return for the expense of man
lfacturing the article.
1.-The same uncertainty regarding
he price of cotton ties exists as to
he future price of bagging. The
les are manufactured at Pittsburg,
'ut it is utterly impossible to get the
manufacturers to set price for ties,
nd in this connection there seems
o be thorough understanding be- (.
ween the American and English
manufacturers, and it is mere guess
-ork whether ties this season will

HE 10 to l contingent
does not relish the charge OF
having adopted the principle
of the popuIite party concern
ing the financial question.
Indeed, a characteristic OF
that faction seems to strenu-
ously oppose crediting the
peoples party with even be-
ing instrumental in forcing
either Of the old parties to
agitate the silver question.
By the free siIyerites the de-
claration is made that the
democratic party has always
been the friend of silver.
This is true, but the demo-
cratic party has never favored
legislation that would debase
the currency. In the plat
forms Of that party, when ref
erence is made 10 the fnan-
cial question, they have ever
declared in favor of such safe
guards as would maintain
the equal purchasing power
Of the gold, silver and paper
currency. But the platforms
of the party are not its only
record on the now overshad-
owing question. From
another source light is thrown
upon the position OF democ-
racy concerning the vexod
question. In the 10Th Com
gress the democratic maiori-
ty in the lower house was
~. An attempt to pass a
free coinage bill by that house
was not crowned with sue
cess. The Sind Congress
had democratic majority of
14S. During the session ofthat
congress two attempt: were
made to pass a Is to 1 mea=
sure and two failures are re-
corded. The 53rd Congress,
with a democratic majority of
lob, also killed a 16 to 1 bill,
and by the same congress
bills for the coinage of the
two metals at the ratios of III
to l, Is to 1, 10 to l and 20 to
l were not passed. Thus it'll
will be seen that the demo-
cratic party has never
through its platforms nor by a |
majority gifts representatives
in congress ever declared for
a legal ratio different from |
the commercial. 1t is true |
a party has theright to reverse
Its position on any issue, but
to do so is not calculated to
win either confidence or rel
'Pect. However, when it I
adopts the policy Of another
party, justice demands the
omission of the act. To re-
use to give credit where
credit is due is ignoble and
ndefensible.

$114o5

Chairman Thompson held that
Hardeman County was not liable
for the $11425. He based his
opinion upon the following act,
which was passed April ?, 1889:
"Be it enacted by the General
Assembly of the State of Tennessee,
That when a change of venue of any
case, either civil or criminal, is or
dered by the circuit or criminal
courts of this state from one coun-
ty to another the jury fees, IN try
ing the case, shall be paid by the
county from which the case is sent,
and the fees of the officers, sum
moning jurors in cases where the
venue is changed, shall be accor-
DINGHY taxed and certified by the
clerk in civil cases, and also by the
judge and attorney general in crimi-
nal cases in the same manner as
such are now certified by law"
The whole matter was presented
to the April term of our county
court, and the members sustained
the chairman in his decision. Mem
bers of the Bolivar bar were also
consulted about the matter, and inter
preted the act exactly as the chair
man had done. The officials Of
Hardeman County claim that they
have followed the law, and paid
every cent properly adjudged.

ALTHOUGH fifty-two times

ALTHOUGH fifty-two times
more silver has been coined
in the % years since
1873 than during the eighty
years preceding 1873, still a
great hue and cry is being
raised for more silver. But
they say that times were more
prosperous before 1873 than
since that date. IF that be
true, as we have three times
as much silver now as in
1878, and it is stated, times
are growing worse instead of
better, it is a singular kind
of reasoning to conclude that
prosperity can only be at
tanned by still increasing the
volume of silver.

The selection of William

the only one that recommends
itself to the laboring men
