CRUEL TREATMENT
Inflicted by Hazers on Cadet Lester
at Hartman.

Knoxville, Tenn, Dec. A special
from Hartman tells of a strenuous
piece of hazing at the American
Temperance University. Four MEM
bers of the senior class entered the
room of Cadet J. H. Lester last night
aud ordered him to dress and go with
them. When he refused he was bound
and gagged and carried to a secluded
spot in the woods near by, tied to a
tree and whipped. This done, they
took him back to the dormitory,
placed him under hydrant, turned on
the water and left him.
According to Testers story he must
have been there two hours when a
student who came to get water found
him half frozen and in a semi CON
scious condition.
The officer of the guard reported to-
day that ne found four cadets besides
Lester-Bryan, Clark, Amos and Bishop
out of their rooms when he made his 2
O'Clock rounds All have been ordered

ants in the State courts.

McMinuville, Tenn, Nov. ga
war between the Cumberland Tele-
phone & Telegraph Company and its
subscribers at McMinnville seems i'm
minent. When the Cumberland bous hit
out the old McMinnville Telephone
Company it Immediately began to
overhaul and improve the lines and
service, putting in a new outfit
throughout and have given the sub
scribers notice that beginning Jan. I
the old rate of 81 per month for bust
ness houses will be raised to 81. 80 and
the old rate of 81 on residences to 81
per month. The subscribers naturally
do not take kindly to the raise and say
that they will take out their phones
before they will pay it; that the old
company made a handsome profit at the
old rate and the increase proposed Is
unreasonable.

COL. HUGHES PROSPECTS.
His appointment to Succeed Col,
Mum Likely.

Mum Likely.
A special to the Chattanooga Times
from Washington says: Before the
end of this week the President will be
asked TO name successor TO Col.
David Num-, Collector of Internal Rev
enue for Middle Tennessee. Whether
the selection of Mr.. Nunn's successor
will result in bitter factional fight
remains to be seen. The only thing
that seems to be practically settled is
that Col Num- must make way for
some other ambitious Tennessee Re-
publican. He has had four years Of
luxury i'll the green pastures of the
internal revenue collectorship, and has
drawn from the Federal Treasury
$40, 600. Congressman Grosvenor and
other political friends are anxious to
hold him in his present Office, but the
President has practically declared that
the political bosses in the Republican
States must keep their fingers out of
the Federal pudding in tie Southern
States. For years the Federal offices
in Tennessee under Republican adj
ministrations have been the common
prey of Ohio politicians and those from
other States President Roosevelt be-
lieves that the time has come to call a
halt on the outside ringsters and to
give the people of Tennessee some
voice in naming their own officials.
The selection of Col. Num- successor
will, therefore, be left entirely in the
hands of the local Republicans. Col
Brownlow has already declared him
self in favor of the appointment OF
Col Archibald NJ. Hughes of Colum
bia. And Col Brownlow intends t.
see to it that his choice is respected by
the appointing power. H. Clay Evans
thus far, has made no statement in re
gard to his choice for the Office. H,
is friendly to Col. Num-, but it is un
derstoOd that he would much prefer
the appointment of James Jeffries, a
present collector of customs at Mem
phls. -

PRENTIss ON ANARCHY.

Judge William Prentiss, of Chicago,
one of the best democrats of Illinois,
writing for the Chicago American,
thus discusses anarchy and its cure:
"No human intelligence can analyze
the elements that compose being like
that who slew the president or can
trace the processes of his formation.
Only the infinite can do that.
1T is said that his parents came
from Russian Poland. And what Of
Poland? Patriots in every land have
wept over her sad history. Crushed by
superior force and thrice partitioned
between a trio of despots, her people
for generations have been the helpless
victims of oppression.
"There is no knowing what sorrow
and hate and hopeless despair pent up
and suppressed in human hearts long
since returned to dust may have found
vent in this crime against eighty mil
lions of people at Buffalo. Sad but
true, in human affairs, the innocent
must suffer for the sins of the guilty.
We are suffering to-day for the sins
and mistakes of former ages in other
lands. The mistakes of organized soci
ETY., bad government, for ages back,
must bear heavy load of blame for
the modern anarchist.
but organized society must protect
| itself, even from the results Of its own
mistakes and sins. If harsh measures
be necessary, they must be applied
n, t in anger or in revenge, but coolly
and with deliberation. Reason must
be kept firmly in her seat. Stern JUS
tice should preside; the highest good
the only purpose of all we do.
"Above all we must not forget
whence anarchists first came to ouI
shores, and must remember that like
causes produce like effects in all ages
and in all lands.
"We feel sure that there is no ex-
cuse for anarchy in this government Of
the people now we must see to it that
there never shall be. Unjust govern
ment has made anarchists. Just gov.
eminent alone can prevent their in
crease and in time will surely bring
about their final determination.

McMlNNVILLE FASHION.
Drastic Measures Prohibiting the
Sale of Liquor.

A special from McMinnville says:
"A drastic measure prohi biting the
sale of whisky within the town. drawn
by Attorney j. J. Finney, passed first
reading. This ordinance makes it I'M
lawful for any person to keep for sale,
sell, offer for sale or bring into town
with intent to SELL any intoxicating
drink, and the keeping of such liquors
wi h intent to sell or tipple the same
is declared to be nuisance, and the
town constable is directed to ahate
same and to contiscate the liquor. The
renting or leasing of property to any
person who there is reasonable ground
to believe will use the property for the
purpose of selling or tippling intoxi-
cants is made misdemeanor. The
fine for a violation of any provision
of the ordinance is not less than SIC
nor more than $50, or not exceeding
three months imprisonment
AN ordinance was also passed re-
quiring pool and billiard halls to close
from Z 30 O'Clock p. m. until 3C
o CLOCK a. M, and levying a tax of
$50 per annum on each table. A fine
of not less than $40 or over $50 is the
penalty for a violation of its pro.
visions. The board is determined that
no loophole shall be left for the sale
of red liquor.

When Judge Ferris says that he will
not submit to being run over by the
machine, his language is more or
less ambiguous. Does he mean that if
the machine as he calls it-or the
convention as it is more commonly
called-nominates another for Cover
nor, that he will not submity 1t really
does not matter much whether he sub
mits gracefully and at the proper time
or not, the final result will be the
same. But the point is, if he does not
intend to submit to the verdict of the
convention, his name ought not to 70
before the convention. And if he has
not the good taste to withdraw it him
sell the convention should refuse to
consider it. We are really sorry that
the Judge is losing his temper so early.
and cannot see that the hest thing Ton
him to do now is to quit Discretion
always is the better part of yalor.
