How Democrats Get Together.

There is very simple plan by which
the democrats get together-and that
is to get into the democratic party and
to submit to the Judgment Of the ma
iority on ell questions Of principle and
policy. That is the only hope for the
democratic party or any other party,
and those who will not become demo
Gratis upon these conditions will not be-
come democrats at ALL There have
been at various times in the history of
the party questions which have arisen
and have created dissensions and di-
visions, but the party has gone steadily
forward, growing in strength and TAX
ing in new material faster than it has
lost on account of assertions. The
democratic party will be the winning
party in 1900. The platform upon
which it will make the fight in 1900 will
be framed by the democratic national
convention which will assemble to
nominate q candidate for the presi-
denoy. The platform adopted in Chi
cago in 1895 willremain the democratic
platform until that time. If, in the
judgment of majority of the dele
gates to the next national convention,
it is best to reafirm the platform of
1896, in whole or in part, it will be done,
and that platform will be at issue in
the election to follow. No man has
any right to claim that he is democrat
who neither subscribes to the demo
cratic doctrines nor belongs to the dem
ocratic organization. 1t is frequently
the case that men in all parties dissent
from some particular part of their party
platform, but yield their judgment to
the judgment Of the majority, and re-
main with tho organization. All such
are entitled to claim membership in the
organization, and are entitled to the
consideration at the hands of the party
due to democrats. But those who de-
sert and enlist under the flag of the
enemy to fight the organization have
no more right to claim to be democrats
than Lucifer and his angels of darkness
have to claim the inheritance of the
angels of light. There are many in
Kentucky and Tennessee and other
states who belonged to the democratic
organization, and we're led off in the
last campaign, who have discovered the
deception that was practiced upon
them, and they are returning to the
democratic organization.
A democrat, even if he believes that
his party is wrong in its attitude on
the currency question, must have con-
fdence in the ultimate, wisdom of the
majority of his party to correct any
errors into which he thinks the party
has fallen. and if he can not trust to the
wisdom of the majority to ultimately
shape oil politics for the best, rather
than trust to the republican organiza-
ton, he is not fit to be called a demo
crat, and he has no right to wear its
livery to serve Mark Hanna in. There
is a gulf between the man who prefers
Mckinley and Mark Hanna to demo
cracy as wide and as impossible as that
which separates Dives and Lazarus.
The men who go out of the democratic
party and unite with such corrupt or
ganization as the republican party will

To be dragged down to an early grave
by the neglect of trivial ailment is not
an enviable fate, and yet thousands
submit to this fate without struggle.
People can not learn too soon that
coughs and colds and affections of the
throat and chest can not be safely neg
lected. The most fatal disease known
to physicians have their inception in
these disorders. 1t is easy to cure a

'But all the wealth of the east and
all the broad empire Of the west could
not buy the heart and hand OF Tennes-
see. She is the bride of Tennesseeans,
who would spill the last drop of their
blood in defense Of her honor and for
the protection OF her name.
"When 1 read the history of Tennes-
see and the glorious record she has
made in a single century, I almost wish
l could live through the coming CEN
tury to witness the triumphs which
await her. This great valley of East
Tennessee will be glittering chain Of
cities and splendid towns for two hun
dred and fifty miles, and the sky of
night will be red with the rection Of
light from her furnaces and factories,
and she will be the center OF popula-
tion and the richest country in the
world. She will sit ou her seven hun.
dred hills and Knoxville will be the
hub OF her glory. Gay street will reach

tinent (applause) and there will be a
carnival every day in the year except
the holy Sabbath. Tatom will send
, out million copies OF the Daily Trib-
une and William Rule will be an angel; !;
the women will vote, and then / think
the millennium will be near at hand.
"But must withdraw one of the
prophecies 1 have made. When the
new century shall shed its glory upon
the pathway of our progress, if the
people Of the mountains are leading the
world in commerce and wealth, but are
still misguided in politics, I trust that
the man with the kind heart, but CRUEL
pen, will pass from the editorial chair
of the Journal to rest like Lazarus in
Uuncle Sans bosom.
II hope my friends will understand
that wonld not make serious refer
ence to politics or any other subject
which would cast shadow upon the
pleasures of this delightful honor. The
beaSty of occasions like this, lies in the
fraternity and of all the elem ents and
opinions of the commonwealth. All
differences melt away, and all eyes and
all hearts see alike and feel alike, and
interests and all hopes are blended into
one, when the people meet to pay the
tribute OF their love and devotion to
our homes and our country.
''It is not so much wealth as material
delopment that constitute the great.
ness of state, as it is the brain and
heart of those who make wealth and
build states. 1t is not SO much what
we have, but what we are that will give
to our history its enduring lustre, and
impress our greatness on coming gen.
erations.
"Riches will perish, and even our
cities will crumble into ruins, but oul
patriotism and love of truth, and oul
noble deeds for country and humanity
will survive the wreck OF nations.
81 bow to the Prophet of the Smo.
kies, and to all the glittering hosts who
follow him, and trust that his advent
here at the threshold of the twentieth
century will herald the dawn OF a now
era of happiness and prosperity fol

year that he wanted to 60 to school, and
pitched him a crop of tobacco and went

and sold it for $58 net, and added it to

The Jealousy between the two houses of
Congress over platform privileges lends a
touch OF comedy to the preparations for
Inauguration day. This strife had its be-
ginning back in the early years Of the gov

for the honor of installing the President

roe solved the difficulty by arranging to
take the oath Of office on a platform built
In front of the Capitol. Since his time the
custom of erecting a platform at the east
front of the Capitol, midway between the
two houses of Congress. has been followed.
but this year the Senate made an innoya-
ton by having the platform in front of
the Senate wing of the Capitol. The House
received this innovation an affront and
feit further hurt because each senator re-

member was given but two

ceeded to construct a platform of its own

rights, resolution was introduced by
Representative Dockery inquiring by what
authority the Senate appropriated to its
own control the stand ON which the Presi-
dent is to take the oath of Office. but this
resolution sleeps with the committee on
