The CENSUS. The House Census
Committee held its first meeting this
session to-day, and got right down to
business. Chairman Hopkins of the
committee, says he hopes to be able
to report bill before the Christmas
recess. The Census bill that was
passed by the Senate at the last SEES
sion does not seem to meet the views
Of the members of the House Com
mittee, in number of more or less
important particulars, but it has not
yet been decided whether to amend
the Senate bill, or to report an entire
ly new measure. One thing appears
to be absolutely certain-the employees
of the Census Bureau villa not be put
under civil service rules.

Z WASHINGTON LETTER.
1From the Trlbune's Corresponding
Washington. Dec, 18th, 1898

Washington, Dec, 18th, 1893,
The PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS-
President Mckinley does not regard
himself as personal guardian of Con
gress, as Mr.. Cleveland did. There
fore he and almost the entire Cabinet,
will go South tomorrow, to be away
from Washington eight days, without
any fear that Congress will be guilty
of anything very naughty while they
are away, His long service IN Con
gress makes President Mckinley
know how to treat that body in such
manner as to keep the goodwill of
it's members, regardless of party. 1t
is always a good thing to be able to
put yourself in mans place when
you are dealing with him, equally
good for both parties, as it tends to
treating the other fellow as you
would like to be treated yourself.
This trip will be relaxation for Presi-
dent Mckinley and no duty will be
as the original copy of the
treaty of peace, signed Saturday
night, cannot possibly reach Wash
ington before he gets back,

In Sheridan.

Sheridan, July 14.-Dr. Miller was
called to attend Mr.. and Mrs. Evander
Slime late Monday night, they having
been the victims of a runaway accident
that afternoon, which occurred near
Twin Bridges. The flies had been very
bad that day, and one of the horses
which the old couple had driven on their
trip to the Bridges had rubbed off his
bride while fighting flies. Then the
team ran away, piling up in a ditch,
and throwing out the occupants of the
wagon. Mrs. Slime received a COM
pound fracture of the left leg below the
knee, and Mr.. Slime had the small bone
of his left leg broken. The broken limbs
were ~bandaged by DIR. Wilson Of Twin

to their home near Sheridan, where DIR.

lures.

tim of a runaway accident Monday,

Dear HerdLd:-HOw rapidly events
crowd our lives! Only a short while
ago we played Substitute" for
Barbara" Since that time, page
after page has been enacted in our
history. In our quiet retreat we
built some castles, but not one cas-
tie in Spain. A tide in the affairs
of men and nations has brought
reaiities-not dreams.
With only passing interest did
we read snatches of guerilla war
fare. America was at peace with all
the world; America was our onlv
home, and Cuba was beyond the
waters.
We have seen the rosy dawn, the
clear MONDAY but ere the eventide
the sky was darkened, the deadly
lightning played around us, and the
roar of thunder shook the earth. Fit
simile of our awakening to the sad
realities of cruel war.
The tap of drum, the bugle call
sounded on fair Americas shore,
arousing patriotism born of men.
With hearts filed with zeal, brave
soldier boys responded to their cOun-
try's call. But alas alas to a moth
er it is a death knell tn her hopes
a plans of happiness! She, too,
becomes soldier, private enlisted
for the war. Her name may not be
enrolled, but her heart goes with
her boy. She is with him upon his
camping-grOund; she is with him
upon his pallet of straw. She notes
the absence of pillow, she feels
the suake-like dampness that
creeps up silently and enters his
body to fill it with the poison of dis
ease. She feels the cold wind as ii

him his food over the imprOvised

marches, and sits beside the cot of
her sick soldier boy, suffering all
with him to battle and hears the
din Of warfare, and she witnesses
all the pain and death. All this his
mother lives through.
She not only bears her own bur-
den, but her heart goes out to a sol

THE most discouraging sign Of the
times to those interested in good
government, is the perfect indiffer-
ence with which the big majority OF
the taxpaying, conservative, bust
ness people look upon politics, and
the lack of interest they take in
who shall represent them in the
law making counsels of the land.
If you suggest to an active, pros
perOus business or professional man,
that he allow the use of his name as
candidate for the legislature, he
will laugh at you. If you suggest
that he use his influence in helping
to select good men, ne will tell you
that he never takes any part in
politics, that it is too dirty, and dis
agreeable, etc. But, mind you, this
same man will complain very loud
ly that bad men are sometimes sent
to Congress, and that Tennessee has
not had a business administration
for years. Now we are willing to
admit that the criticism is true; but
whose fault is it? Is it not the fault
of the business men that they do not
elect legislature composed of bust
ness men? Is it not the fault of the
good, that they allow bad men to go
to Congress, or to be elected Govern
or? Can the evil ever be cured by
turning the whole machinery of
government over into the hands OF
intemperate or incapable, designing
or dishonest men? Can business
men be elected when business men
won't run? The State Democratic
Executive Committee, from their
headquarters at Nashville, and the
Chambers of Commerce in the cities,
and the press all over the State, are
begging and beseeching the people
to interest themselves in sending
their safest, best, most reliable men
to the legislature; but, judging the
other counties and districts by this,
the people are pursuing the even
tenor of their way, and taking little
or no interest whatever in this most
important matter. And that's
what's the matter with the country

A RUMoR is more or less current
that the Independents, (whoever
they may be) will run a ticket for
Congress and the legislature in this
district, and that they will endeavor
to place some unobjectionable and
very capable men on it. We simply
give the rumor for what it is worth
whether that be much or little; but
it should be worth enough, we
think, to make the Democrats very
careful who they nominate. For, if
the Democrats allow their ticket to
become loaded with immoral and
incapable men, and it is opposed by
a ticket whose personnel is free
from such objections, it is easy tC
