The fact that Tennessee has an empty
treasury a no longer be concealed.
State warrants, mounting up ito the
thousands, have been turned down,
simply because there was no money to
pay them. The money extorted from
the pockets of the taxpayers has been
recklessly squandered, and there is
nothing to show for this ex.
penditure. Democratic administrat ions
have only added to the burdens of the
people, instead of affording measures
of relief and inspiring the hope that
the end of distress and oppression was
in the near future. The long prevail.
ing dishonesty of robbing Peter to pay
Paul and the vicious policy of borrow.
ing money to tide owe present straits
only postpone the fatal day and when
the wreck comes it will be only the
more complete and disastrous. Ten
nessee is in a bad plight financially.
The most ingenious Misrepresentation
can not cover up this ugly and serious
fact. And by the time the acting Gov
ernor gets through with his program
she will be ready for a receiver.

WHERE was Col. Brownlow while
President Mckinley was in Tennesseep
Col. Brownlow was ''of course" more
interested in looking after the interests
of his dear friend, Richard w. Austin,
than in any "perfunctory attendance
upon Mr.. McKinley's movements"

way. o, no; not he.-The Staff.
Mr.. Brownlow was not elected by the

A Number of Persons Injured by a Storm at

Little Rock, Ark, June 26.-The
worst storm of the season occurred
about 4 o'clock this afternoon. The
wind reached a very high velocity for
a few moments and the people who re.
membered the cyclone of three years
ago were terror stricken and hurriedly
sought places of safety. Shade trees,
awnings and fences we're blown down
all over the city, and plate glass win.
dows in the business portion demolish

lowed by a violent hail storm. A few
small buildings were blown down and
tin roofs damaged. A number of per
sons were more or less injured by flying
timbers The storm lasted but a few
minutes.

Believed That James Travis Was Murdered
at Nashville.
Nashville, June 27.-Today about
noon the partially decomposed body Of
a mar So or go years old was found in
some bushes near the exposition
grounds. 1t was evident he had been
dead for three or four days. A return
ticket from the Confederate reunion to
Winchester, Tenn, was found on his
person and a small sum of money. His
clothing was good. 1t is believed the
dead man is James Travis, a reputable
farmer, living twelve miles from Win
chester, and a telephone message to-
night from Winchester says Travis
came to the reunion and had not re.
turned. The situation of the body and
the appearance of the place leads to
the belief of foul play and murder, but
nothing definite has been developed.
