Mr.. Editor-What is the matter
with our listers that they should cut
down the most valuable piece Of proper.
ty in town? What influence was
brought to bear? Was it aihip pocket
pistol? Reference is made to the hotel
property. | understand that it is an
absolute fact that this property can be
sold any day for fitty-five hundred
that man stands ready any day to
pla k down that sum for this hotel |
also understand that it has heretofore
stood in the list at thirty five hundred.
If this is so shouldn't it have been
raised? Most assuredly. But instead
Of this | am told that it has been cut
down to thirty hundred. If this is true
it is shameful. Other property in the
village, that pays a tax on from seven
to fifteen hundred, if cut to the same
ratio would stand at from four to eight
hundred. And this is not all, | hea r
of case where man has bought on
to his farlh, built new barn, turned a
pasture into moving and otherwise ad-
ded to the value of his farm but is al.
SO favored by having his list cut down,
and yet there are Others How is this!
Isn't it about time, Mr.. Editor, to get
out that search light with trimmed wick
ard FURNISHED glass. Give us light!

Exempt ManufaetorIes.

The Chattanooga Times is very
DESTROYS that an amendment to the
constitution should be submitted to
the people exempting manufactur-
ing plants from taxation and
wishes expressions from all the
papers of the State on the subject.
We for one are opposed to ex-
empting them. We see no reason
why the rich owners of factories
should be allowed to go free and
not be compelled to bear their part
Of the burden in keeping up the
State. Such a course would) only
add more on to the poorer people
and would be an injustice.
We are in favor of an amendment
to the Constitution prohibiting
double taxing or excessive taxing
of factories or any othor line of le-
Ultimate business. If those looking
for location of industries were
only satisfied that their taxation
would be fair, they would be salts
fed. We do not think they would
ask to be entirely exempted.

The Weather Calendar.

The Times has received the Car
dui Weather Chart and Calendar
for 1898 from the Chattanooga Med
icine Co., manufacturers of McEl-
reefs Wine of Cardui and Thed-
ford's Black-Draught. This is one
of the best calenders published. 1t
consists of twelve sheets of paper,
13x2O inches in size, all fastened
together with a gilt tin strip and a
brass loop hanger. Each sheet
contains the calendar for one
monte in large figures that can be
read across any room. Under the
figures patent weather signals indi-
eating Prof. DeVoe's Weather
Forecasts for every day in the year
appear. The moons changes and
legal holidays are also shown. The
calendar is valuable in any home.
We understand a few copies of it
can be secured by sending 10 one
cent postage stamps to the Chatta-
nooga Medicine Co.. Chattanooga,

Miss Clara Barton, President of
the Red Cross Society, has not yet
made any arrangements toward
going to Cuba. At the State De-
partment it is said that Miss Bar
ton will undoubtedly 'go there, but
only to confer with Consul General
Lee, who will have immediate SUI
pervision over the distribution of
supplies. Gen. Lee will rk in
conjunction with the Spanish au-
thorities, who have established re-
lief boards through the country
and will assist them in every way
possible.
Assistant Secretary Day has TAX
en- charge of the project in person
and will make every effort to have
it successfully carried out. Before
any plans are matured the State
Department is. waiting until the
supplies and money have been con-
tributed.

There are now four men outside
OF Gibson in the race for congress
and II all OF them run on there Is
hardly any doubt but that Gibson
will be returned, but 1t is also sure
that there Is no doubt but that
one good man against Gibson
means that this district will easily
get rid of the untruthful humbug
now mis-representing them. The
opposition to Gibson is In the ma
jority now by large margin and
majority have right to say that
Gibson shall step down and out
The wishes of the majority should
be law.
The question then is how Is this
opposition to Gibson to be united.
What are these four gentlemen
going to do? Are they going to be
stubborn and all stay on the track
and thus defeat the will of the ma
jority of the people of the district :?
Several plans have been proposed
by which their forces could be unit
ed. Some suggest primary so that
it can be determind which of the
four is strongest and that one, run
against Gibson; Others suggest a
convention. Each of these plans
have objections and serious objecti-
ons, and we do not see why either
of them should be used.
You ask what is our plan
then. We have nothing new to
offer in the way of plan for we do
not believe the people owe it to
these men to settle their differen.
ces. On the other hand we think
they owe 1t to the people to settle
the matter themselves and among
themselves.
They will find that large part
of the opposition to Gibson viii
take no part whatever in the cam
paign until they do this, for it il
not so much matter which one o
them, or whether any of them ge
, to go or not, but the people want tt
. have an honest man and bette
man than Gibson; and almost an.
change would be an improvement
=, in the matter of honesty.
Now gentlemen be patiioti
enough to settle your own differen
ces. Don't call on the peopl to d
this. 1t would only create frictio
;, and be disadvantage to the wir
ner.

Washington, Jan. S-The confer

Bishop Merrill, representing the

were adopted expressive of the
views of the conference for united

As a mark of respect to the AM
erican Senate, which body took an
active interest in the fate of of the
patriot Cuban general Ruiz Rivera
during the extraordinary session,
the Spanish government has had
that unfortunate officer dragged
through the streets of Barcelona in
chains on his way to the torture
chambers of the fortress of Mount
Juich, the horrors Of which were
exposed just before the assassina-
ton of Canovas del Castillo. The
Spaniards are not successful in the
field, bat they are masters of the
art of crulity to prisoners and to
women and children. However,
they are our allies, and nothing
must be said about 1t.

Some are gloating over the fact
that Congressman Gibson has in.
fiuence. He is appointing the post
masters of his district. This Is
certainly an accomplishment. No
congressman ever failed toappoint
his postmasters and appoint them
sooner than Gibson has, yet it was
never before given US an evidence
of influence.
