Politicians working Country People

EOlIClclanS w Ork1ng Country People
The dangerous characters who were last
fall hired to stir up dissatisfaction and
sow seeds of anarchism and riot in the
cities ere now being sent through the
country districts for the same purpose.
They travel in gaudily painted wagons,
bearing false or misleading quota tons
from distinguished men, which are dis
torted into apparent support of the free
coinage of silver, which is now worth less
than one-half what it was when these
utterances are alleged to have been made.
To conceal their real purposes these men
profess to be obtaining subscribers to
free silver publication, with which is fur
nished az Y of book by Coin" Har-
vey, whOWA sritings are now recognized
as not only Slntruthful and misleading,
but purposely and maliciously so and an
imposition upon those before whom they
are placed. This attempt TO distribute the
seeds of distrust, anarchism and riot in
the agricultural communities for the pure
~ selfish purpose of making a market
for the property of silver mineowners
and placing a few politicians in Office de-
serves the contempt of those upon whom
it is being imposed. 1t is of the same
class as that by which the tin peddler
wagons spread falsehood through the
country in the Congressional campaign OF
1890, but is vastly more dangerous to
the country from the class of employed,
the doctrines they disseminate and the
desperate schemes of those who support
them in this performance. The silver
mine-owners and their political allies have
resorted to this new device to deceive the
people. who are. however, rapidly discoV-
ering the impositions they practice.

Popuhst leaders are advising against a
Continuance Of the fusion of last fall be-

The uncertain attitude of the Democratic
party on the two great questions, protec-
ton and silver, is the cause of this un-

Plan TO DUNN Bryan.

Rotation in office" is popular with the
friends OF free silver as well as others.
Ii is whispered that the real cause of the
Chicago gathering of 4 few days since
which organized what was called the sill
yer Republican party was to set on foot
a movement which should push TO the
front an entirely new leader for the silver
cause and dump to the bottom of the deep
blue sea William Jennings Bryan, who
led the party to defeat last year.

Distressing to Political Enemies

The absolute unanimity of purpose in
the Republican party and the solidity Of
its ranks in the Senate is distressing its
political enemies greatly. The party
dissensons which they had expected to
see crop out among the Republicans have
made their appearance on their own side
of the chamber, however, and this adds to
the distress of the handful of gentlemen
wAo assumes to be the leaders Of that
party In and out Of Congress.

Our genial sheriff made his most
successful raid into Monroe County
last week, with the assistance Of
Sheriff Groner 80 Knox Co.,
Deputy Barr, Of Monroe Co., and
Rev. Moore, of Maryville, he sue
ceeded In capturing Miss Nellie
Leslie at the home of her father
near White Cliff springs.
No evidence was needed in the
case as Sheriff Walker and Miss
Leslie publicly announced their affect
ion for each other and Mr.. Moore
promptly sentenced each to the
custody of the other for life.
1t was quiet home wed ling, only
relatives and personal friends being
present. Sheriff Groner's jokes
and pranks were the feature OF the
occasion, as usual the sheriff left
sad hearts behind him, but it was a
jolly company who attended him
both going and coming. A host Of
friends here wish him and his
BRIDE a lcng and happy welded
life.

The influence for good is SO great
that you either have to be Christian
or almost an outcast. The young
men haue so ingrained IN them
"shun evil companions" that it is
almost impossible for rowdy to have
any company. Students coming from
distant homes where the surroundings
TEND ward evil, when they live at
Maryville College year, the evil
surroundings which once they enjoyed
are now to be abhored. They turn
from evil and seek for better things.
Besides the requirements Of the
College of tending Church and Sum-
day School on Sunday. The Y. M.
c. A. and Y. w. C. A. meetings on
every Sunday afternoon are open to
all students. These meetings are
earnest, interesting and instructive to
all and we are glad to state that long
list of names was added to their
membership last Sabbath, as nearly
all the young converts joined he So
cieties. We trust that they will re.
ceive strength thereby and rally
round the banner of the Cross.
We take pride in stating that our
Y. M. c. A. delegate, to the State
Convention at Nashville, on making
this report to the Society on his re
turn, said: That Maryville College
Y NJ. c. A. was the only one at the
convention that could report the
three classes of Bible study. In this
respect we consider our Y. M. C. A.
the best in the state. We heartily
welcome any young Christians to join
and receive the benefits of our So
clety. One of the grandest meetings
ever held by the society was on last
Sunday afternoon, when many souls,
for the first time IN their lives, testi-
fed to the power of the Holy Spirit,
in that he had saved them from sin.
A special prayer meeting was held

School Buildings.

Mr.. Editor:-It is reported that The
school authorities are preparing to
rebuild for the town schools,
have plan in that regard which
l believe to be for the best interests
of the schools. If others think diff
ferently, they may be right.
My suggestion is to sell the present
building and lot sold to the best
advantage. The lot is very valuable,
but there is not room for town
school, and it is in the center of the
town where scholars and school must
be disturbed to a greater or less
degree. Besides, the town Is now
divided in two Districts, and will
never likely be restored. 1t is grow
ing and spreading, and no one can
tell where it will stop, if at all. Now,
these things being in view, my sug-
gestion is that lot of four or five
acres be obtained from Mr.. David
Jones, just east Of the depot, or from
the Everett lands on the ridge west
Of the residence of ]. H. Cowan,
and build good house there, where
the school will be free from annoy
anoe, and the scholars have plenty
Of room for play. Then let another
lot of like size be secured from Mr..
S. T. Post or Robert Thompson, on
the Friendsvllle road, west of the
town, and let the 10Th District build
another good house there, where the
west end of town will be free from
disturbance and have plenty of room
for play and exercise. This will
equalize the travel of the children in
the two ends of town, each District
will attend to its own business, and
future complications will be avoided.
Then again as to the colored
school. By all manner of means
that little cramped lot should be dis.
posed of, and more commodious and
retired place secured.
1t would be better if they, too, had
two houses and in each District. l,
is bad to have the scholars crowded
as they are into one house, either
the whites or blocks. II an epi.
demic should break out, it woulc
make havoc of the town. One case
Of small pox in either the white OF
the colorec school would spread the
disease in every part Of the town
Maryville has grown quite consider
ably since the present buildings wer,
thrown open to the schools. TIL,
number of children have increased
fully four fold. | call attention t
these things, that they may be con
sidered by the public, as we'll as b,
the school authorities, and ifregardet
of'any value, that they may go TO
what they are worth.

Walker Manager of team. The asso-
citation have selected their team and
will as soon as the diamond is scraped,
get into active work. The dramond
will be scraped and bases fixed as
soon as the chain gang can be secured
to do the work. We feel that if the
boys keep up the enthusiasm mani.
tested in the meeting last Monday
that Maryville will wipe out evrything
on the list this season. We congratu-
late the boys on having secured Mr..
Walker as their manager. He will
undoubtedly make a good one, as he
does to the best of his ability every
thing he undertakes. Let us get to
work imediately boys and make this
season the best in our history.

were brought into The light of God:
truth. And while SO many new con-

much eagerness, older ones, those
who who have been Christians fol
years, testify that they never saw
the truth so clearly, nor the wonder
