7aE SAME OLD STORY.

The democratic press are abusing
President Mckinley for alleged ungen-
tlemanly conduct toward Aguinaldo in a
recent address. 1t appears that the
president intimated that the Filipino
chieftain had been guilty of negotiating
the liberties of his people to Spain for
a cash consideration, and would have
effected a settlement with the govern
ment of the United States on a similar
basis had he been able to do so. 81
These statements have been hotly re-
scented by the Aguinaldo newspapers
throughout the country. With n ac-
cord they demand that the president give
the details of the deal with Spain, and
the details Of any attempt mad to sell
out the insurgent cause to the federal
authorities. or else withdraw the re-
marks injurious to the character of Agu-.
inaldo!
They impute to the president most
wretched taste in trying to break down
tlAC VI AIS icI tlS u
f~ections of the American people. 1T is
the same old story.
Because President Lincoln did not treat
with Jefferson Davis as the head of a
contending nation, instead of looking
upon him as the leader Of the rebel
hosts. the copperheads of that day rails
~ l,N1l 30 +l,a+ :, IAN
echoing down the corridors of history.
They imagined that the dignity of the
nation was lowered, that the chief execu-
tive showed very poor taste, that a great
injustice was done a ~"rival." when Abra-
ham Lincoln refused to treat With the
head of the c~onfederacy as the represent
alive of a nation.
Insofar as the circumstances allow. the
same old spirit of apprehension crops
out today. McKinley's refusal to recog-
nize The halo of dignity which the DEM
ocratic press have placed around the
i3ead of a treacherous barbarian, sub
jects him to the same criticisms that
We're enjoyed by Lincoln. The chief eX-
ecutive is accused of unfairness, poor
taste. and small regard for the truth.
because he has seen fit to designate in
general terms the character Of the man
who treacherously inspired the insurrec-
ton in Luzon and caused the death of
many a brave American soldier. 1t
seems that the copperheads. like the COM
in cycles.

THE BARD OF THE BROOK.

A poet stood beside the brook
M watch the water glide;
His face took OF a distant look
And soulfully he sighed:
That bubble there resembles man.
1t floats along the shore.
Each moment passing points it can
Go back and pass no more"
THAT C hip" he unused, resembles me
IT'S tossed from side to side,
Yet always floating to the sea.
That great engulfng tide
Thereat he ceased n unused no more,
The world thus lost a song;
The bard had slipped upon the shore
And tumbled in headlong.

THE PRESIDENTS PROCLAIM TON.

In line with a national custom the
proclamation. in which due credit is
given a kind and beneficent Providence
for the manifold blessings enjoyed by
our people. The prevailing prosperity is
referred to-, and the industrial and conf
mercial condition of the people men,
toned. Progress in the settlement of at
fairs in Cuba is noted, and the fact that
the good purposes of the United States
are being recognized in the Philippines
il set forth.
Naturally, the democratic press will
find fault with his proclamation. For
the chief executive to intimate that any
body in the Philippines recognizes the
good urpos of the nation, when Agu-
this country will not admit such a pre-
posterous proposition, is more than the
bourbon press can stand.
Those who kick on the statements
made in the presidents proclamation will
doubtless justify themselves by the
precedent established during Cleveland's
s%ojourn in the White house. 1t will be
remembered tina some of the people crit
icised Growers statement that prosperity
prevailed in a contented country. and all
that, when he named Thanksgiving day.

WHAT THE MINER MEANT.

This morning the Butte Miner resents
with considerable warmth the construc-
ton placed upon its advice to the ldier
by the Inter Mountain yesterday. 1t re-
produces the suggestion that the volun-
teers refrain from allowing themselves
'to be made professional soldiers or
heroes Of and says:
The Miner meant just what it said and
it is not going to run the risk of insult
ing the intelligence of it's readers by
seeking to make its meaning so clear
that even the Butte Inter Mountain may
understand.
If the Inter Mountain placed a wrong
it is a matter to be regretted. for it is
often hard enough to tell just what it
does not mean by what it says without
trying to find out what it does mean by
| what it does not say. If our contem-
porary prefers to allow its statements
to go unexplained. permitting each of its
! leaders to furnish his own diagram. the
Inter Mountain has no objection to offer.
Tie public will be compelled to still
canoe of its advice to the volunteers to
not allow themselves "to be made pro-
fessional soldiers and heroes Of"
These words Of warning imply the pos
sibility that someone ma attempt to
make professional soldiers and heroes"
of our volunteers. and the question quite
wishing to misrepresent Il contempo-
rary in the least the Inter Mountain gave
what seemed to be the natural construc-
ton of the language used. and imputed
to it a political significance. Referring
to this our esteemed contemporary kind
ly says:
That the remarks of the Miner admit
Of no other construction in the thinking
! department of the Butte Inter Mountain
than that placed upon them by hat
paper bespeaks either a wOeful ignorance
or a deliberate intent to misrepresent.
Though not an actual the foregoing is
a constructive denial on the part of the
Miner that it meant to imply that an
attempt might be made to make "pro-
fessional oldiers and heroes out of any
of the volunteers for political purposes
1t seems that it meant no harm when il
gave this advice to the soldiers, merel!
exercising a fatherly p~rerogative ovel
the boys. 1t warned them against allow.
ing anybody to make professional sol.
diers and heroes of them, least they
might-that is. in other words, should
they happen tor. to make it plain
we'll. "the Miner meant just what i
said"

Phosphate Galore.

That phosphate deposits exists
no doubt in paying quantities in
Hardin County, the Courier feels
prompted to urge the people 20
investigate the matter, and let's
get the benefit of the great tidal
wave of prosperity, the result of
phosphate finds in adjoining coun-
ties. Phosphate and pearls are
making the people of Maury
County rich with startling rapid
ity. Those who are not digging
Tor the former are diving for the
litter. Only short time ago Il
fortunate fisherman discovered a
pearl in a muss!e shell which he
sold for 81, 200. Any number of
shells have been found containing
pearls worth from $75 TO 5000.
Valuable as this is, however, it is
but a bagatelle compared to the
prodigious wealth which the coun-
ty has in its phosphate deposits.
Already ak or seven thousand
hands are engaged mining the rich
beds and the shipment of the pro.
duct will amount to between five
and six hundred thousand tons
during the present year. Much
of it is sold at $3.50 per ton at the
mines. Nearly two million dol
lars will be paid out in the coun-
ty this year in the shape of wages
and other expenses on account Of
mining. Millions more will come
into the hands of the people for
lands sod to capitalists who are
investing in these great fertilizer
deposits. AS yet the industry is
IN it's infancy.

The Iron Boom.

The iron boom has come again,
and furnaces that have been clos.
ed down for years, are being put
in full blast rapidly. There is
enough iron ore in Hardin and
McNairy county to supply half u
dozen furnaces for years, and is is
of a good quality, If we but had
a line of railway great develop.
ments would set in in this section.
There is such a demand for pig
iron at present that consumers
are becoming alarmed lest there
be panic. Some of the furnaces
in the South have their output
sold up to the close of 1900. Pig
iron is selling now for $1S per
ton, and at that price the manu-.
facturer can pay the laborer a
good price and still have nice
margin left.
