Tennessee's Needs.

The people of Tennessee do not fully
appreciate the unparalleled advantages
the state offers to energetic, intelligent
men who desire to engage in manutact-
uring, and they do not realize what the
State is losing annually by neglect Of
opportunities. Tennessee has more
iron and more coal than Alabama,
though the output of both is much
greater in the last named state. Ten
nessee grows more cotton than North
Carolina, but that State has 80 cotton
mills to our 20. Tennessee grows moro
tobacco than Missouri, yet that state
manufactures 100 pounds of tobacco to
our own Tennessee has 10000, 900
acres of forest land, but more OF our
timber is manufactured outside than in
side the State.
What Tennessee needs most Is an in
crease in the number of production
consumers who will engage in the man
ufacture of such articles as the farmers
need and who will exchange them for
products of the farm. That would in
crease the demand for farm products,
and reduce the competition between the
farmers. There are many idle men in
Tennessee, SO men in every 100 of our
population do not work and for that
reason the value of the agricultural
products of the state are lower than any
Other State in the Union, or Sl63 per
capita, while in the manufacturing
states of New England, the lowest, in
Rhode Island, is 1924.
Before Tennessee can become rich
and prosperous a healthy development
OF its natural resources must begin.
The laws must ba 80 modified as to en-
courage the investment OF capital in
manufacturing. We must pay as much
attention to national affairs as we do to
politics, and we must invite demigog-
ues to place in the back seat, AMI put
men OF enterprise, capable, honest men,
to the front. The watch work must be
''less politics, more business. -McEwen

USELESS OFFICES

The democratic candidates for
have without exception
declared themselves in favor of
"abolishing all useless offices" but
none of them have been specific in
designating the Offices which they
consider as being useless" The
people who bear the burden Of
useless offices are of the opinion
that the Chancery Court Of Ap-
peals which cost them about SIS
600 a year is a useless Office.
They believe that about one half
the Judges and attorney generals
of the State are superhuous, hav
ing been created for the purpose
of pensioning lot of politicians
on the State. The Railroad Com
mission could we'll be spared. 1t
was created at the demand Of dem~
egogues who have been fighting
corporations uL til they have bank
,rupted tie State. There are offices
for deputies and clerks that are en-
tirely unnecessary, that were beN
gotten in fraud and injustice and
should be abolished. There il
no sense in paying coal oil inspect
ors thousands when the same ser-
vice can be had for hundreds
If we we are to have reform, more
business and less politics, let US
b. gin by abollshing every
useless Office then cut salaries tC
business basis. then repeal thu
election laws that render far cleo
tons impossible, repeal all laws
that are unfriendlY to corporations
aud manufacturers, then all go to
work to make Tennessee great, ae
she surely will he il we are in earn
est about more business and less
politics"

of having sold French military secrets
to a foreign government. His accuser
was certain Major Esterhazy, crea-
ture calling himself a count. but not
entitled to that. prefix Esterhazy is
well known in the French army. and
certain circles in Paris, as a man of
depraved Instincts and debauched and
degraded life, just such a man, in
short, who would be likely to betray his
country for the gold everybody knew
ne badly needed to continue his habit
ual course of vice and shame.
Yet. on the testimony of such a
wretch, supported only by some frag-
mentary writings, now believed to have
been forged. Dreyfus was hailed before
a secret tribunal ia defiance of national
Law and sentenced to life Imprisonment
in an iron cage on the desolate Isle au
Diable. There he is now.
Circumstances have pointed to Ester
hazy as the real culprit and he has
been whitewashed by court martial.
under conditions constituting a trav
esty OF justice. Zola, the novelist, has
assaulted the war office, and everybody
connected with the EsterhaZy court, in
letter accusing them of permitting an
innocent man to be tortured to death,
and in eNonerating the actual criminal,
rather than to disclose the weakness
and blunders of their past course in
the matter. He even goes so far as
directly to charge Gen Billot. minister
of war with having and concealing the
proofs of Capt Dreyfus's innocence.
Zola challenges the government to
try him for this statement, and it will
accordingly proceed to prosecute. Then
there will be more turmoil. The whole
affair has passed into the stage of
religious persecution. The unhappy
Capt. Dreyfus is a Jew. For that
reason it was easy for EsterhaZy to
make him a scapegoat in the first in
stance. For the same wretched reason
our Paris correspondent cables us that
if the most undeniable proofs of his in
nocence were presented today 1t would
be impossible to secure justice at the
hands of the French government. Mill
taTy protection to the residences of
Hebrew citizens is today necessary in
the city OF Paris. to save them from
the fury Of Jew-baiting mob likely to
rise at any minute.
This is a pretty state Of affairs for
an alleged free and representative re-
public, based on self government, and
religious liberation. 1t would not have
happened under either of the Napo-
Icons. 1t makes US wonder if a people
capable of such insane hatreds and op-
pressions are. after all, fit TO trust with
their own rule; and whether it would
not be better To put a tyrant over them
again. AT least, it would be salutary
for them TO remember just now that,
if the great leaders of the race they
so detest were to unite in support of
such a policy. they would be helpless
10 prevent it's success.

Unless the program should be changed,
all the cotton operatives in New Bedford,
Mass. viii go on strike today, Those in
the King Philip mill, a t Fan River. al
ready have struck, and it is not unlikely
that the entire force of 2s,o00 factory
ha uds in that city will follow suit. A
long and bitter labor struggle is pre-
dicted by those who know the situat ton.
Under conditions Of gold contraction the
cotton spinners cannot operate their mills
and pay anything but wages that mean
slow starvation to the workers. There can
never be any change until the country
returns TO the money OF the Constitution,
and consequent prosperity.

WAR IN WICHITA MOUNTAINS
Miners Resent Land Boomers Set
Ting on the Indian Preserves.

Perry, Okla, Jan. 16.-Parties arriv-
ing from the Wichita mountains say
that trouble between the cowboys and
prospectors for gold on the Indian res
ervation is likely TO occur any day. In
the past week half a dozen serious af-
trays have taken place.
The recent report that ten thousand
men, led by Gen. Hewes. would soon
march into the mountains and declare
it open for white settlement, has caus-
ed the squad of land boomers to double.
Some of these boomers have been en-
camped on the line of the Wichita, XII
owa. Comanche, and Apache Indian
country for three years waiting for the
opening day. and the recent order Of
the Secretary of the Interior open
ing the Indian lands TO cattle
men has caused great indignation
among the hundreds Of boomers
Hostility between the cowboys ard
the land boomers and miners is IN
tense. A party of cowboys were fired
upon Friday by some men in ambush.
The releasing of the land to the In
dians means that the country will not
be opened for several years, and the
