RESTORING WAGES.

We mentioned yesterday tha. the South

lst Of January, restore the WAGES Of its
mechanics which. through stress OF cir
cumsianccs. were cut 10 per cent a few
years ago II is also simultaneously an
nounced from The general Offices of the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad Com
pany. in Louisville. that the remaining
per cent. cut, which was made in Au-
gust, 1885, by that company. Will be re-
stored to the employees Of the road on
January lst.

vile made 10 per cent. cut In the wages
Of every man on the road. from the
president down. one half OF the cnr
restored in July last. and the other half
will be restored the first Of next year,
affecting 1900 employees. Il IS nre
Christmas present. and he employees OF
10th roads will rejoice ana be glad. 1t
is proverbially saii that corporations are
without souls. We DO not know that
they are very grateful They are dis
posed TO make all thai they can for

man who is poorly paid for his work Is

There are some who do not believe
THIS. There are some VINO believe that
every corporation grinds It's employees
down TO the very lowest possible price
but those who will take a dispassionate
view Of the case will be convinced we
think. that the facts arc as we have
stated them. No one corporation fixes
the price OF labor. That Is nXcd as other
prices are nxed-by the law Of supply
and demand and by competition in trade
No corporation can afford 90 pay much
more than the market price for labor
nor can Il secure good labor for much
less than the market price. These things
are established by the laws Of trade
which are as unalterable as the law OF

furnaces at Bristol II is further stated
that with the purchase Of the IRON fur
naccs he has 'sso bought valuable iron
mines in johnson county. Tenn, the

These are most interesting rumors and
we hope that they are true We have
been telling the people OF the southwest
for the past several months that their
splendid mineral properties must tn a
little while come into market, and wheth-
or these rumors from Radford are true
or not they indicate that capitalists have
turned their eyes towards the southwest

REPUTATION AND CHARACTER.

When the Kentucky soldiers returned to
Louisville the other day Mr. Henry Wat
tcrson I'm his speech OF welcome said Of
the commanding officer that II he had
been az Kartoum his name would have
spelled Gordon. at Obdurman, Kitchener
or as Solomon said, Time and chance
happcneth to them all
Every man makes his own character,
but every man is not by any means the
|. "archiicct Of his own fortune" The Gle
ment Of chance is to be taken into ac-
count. for It IS often some special occa-
sion that makes a mans reputation.
Admiral Dewey was unknown 10 the
American public twelve months ago. lie
is described as being q man of no pre-
tensions. q man Of modesty. and man OF
co little assertivencss as that on one oc-
cosion. so il is said. his friends were
vexed with him because Dc had permitted
himself 10 be imposed upon by the au-
thortics in Washington without showing
resentment. Had there been no war
with Spain. Dewey would have moved
along lin the even tenor Of his way
would have discharged his duty. and in
the course of time would have gone down
TO the grave. respected and beloved within
his own little circle but without reputa-
t,on without fame. But the war with
soain came. and Dewey. against his pro-
test it is said, was sent with his fleet TO
Manila. one day he went into the har-
Dor and destroyed an the Spanish ships
there. nor lost q single man. \ little
LATER Dewcv's name was on every mans
tongue. and he was known not only all
over the United States, but all over the
civilized world and was the hero Of the
age. Time and chance happened 10
Dewey that day ana he turned it TO good
account We would not detract from
his glory. but there are other men in the
navy who are obscure and who will re
main I'm obscuiity forever. any one of
whom IN Dewey's place would have given
quite as good an account Of himself and
he would have been famous, while Dewey
would have remained obscure.
We would not detract aught from the
fame of Lieutenant Hobson. But 1t
is n wen-known fact that there were
hundreds of young men in the navy who
were anxious to sink the Merrimao, and.
If fortune had favored any one Of them
he would have been famous while Hobson
would have been denied the honor. Time
and chance happened to Hobson In the
early morning at Santiago and Iobson
improved his opportunity 10 do gallant
act and to write his name among the
heroes of the century
But there is nothing discouraging In
all this 10 the man who csteems charac-
ter a greater thing than reputation.
Character is not made by accident. II
is made by careful CIVILIZATIONS by self
denial and by everlasting training. Dewey
was just as great. just as noble, just as
fine character before he fought the bait
tie at Manila as afterwards. Character
is worth more thun reputation. for rcpu-
tation is temporary, while character is
eternal

THE PRESIDENT AND THE SOUTH.

| II is q strange departure, to be sure
| when the Atlanta Constitution rises up
10 defend President Mckinley against
some slurs that have been made az him
by the Boston Transcript and the Spring
field CMass) Republican. our Northern
| contemporaries were not altogether
pleased with the Presidents very amiabie
| speeches down South, and the Cons'itu-
ton. taking them 10 task, says that II
is at a loss TO know why the Eastern
brethren should so suddenly have grown
| tired of the President and his simple and
unaffected oratory. "Why should they
sheer" it asks. at his friendly sugges-
tions. or describe as paudits sentiments
which would still be noble II they were
uttered every hour Of the day by every
man. woman and child in the United
States?" "Why even the people down
here" adds the Constitution. although
the vast majority of them are utterly
opposed TO the political principles adyo-
Gated by the President make no bones
Of admiring the frank and generous sim
plici,y of the man. and are as ready 10
applaud what is deserving of applause in
his uttcrance as if they had elected MIN
TO Office
To be sure As we said the other day,
the people Of the South are "a chivalrous
people. and they admire a brave and
honest man, no matter how much they
may differ with him in matter of poll
tics Mr.. McKinley's sincerity enthused
the Southern pecplo. When they listened
TO his simple oratory" as the Constitu-
ton puts it. they saw from the express
sion Of the mans face that every senu-
men; that he uttered was sincere. and
there is always elcquence and Inspiration
i'm sincerity. from whatever source.
Mugwumpery at the North may sneer
as much as it please at President Nc
kinney. but be has touched the heart OF
the people, not only of the people of
the South, but the people of AN sections
of the country. bv his noble words and
an the sneers in the world viii not affect
the fact.
