BroWnlow AGAINST Num-.

A Washington specials avs: Repre-
sentative Brownlow said today that
as yet he had endorsed no one for the
Internal Revenue Collectorship at
Nashville. he told Col. Num- that he
could not endorse him. Ii is thought
that Easy Boss is favOrably in

Bate and Representative Gibson are
favorable TO Num-, but they are the
only members Of the delegation who
so far as known are in that list. -

date who will not talk should be made
to talk, and every true friend of temper
ance should know for whom he votes,
and the sentiments of the man, and cast
temperance ballot for everv office,
county, district, state or federal.
Why not contine it to the legislative
candidates? Why lug it into county pol
itics? For this reason: In crisis like
this, the man who is not Willing to give
his voice and vote and influence to the
great effort now beng made for temper
ance reform in this state, is not entitled
to the vote of a single temperance man,
or a single ballot cast by a christian
| hand.
The whiskey men are already trying
to capture the State Democratic Execu-
tive Committee, and put one of their
henchmen at its head. 1t is none too
curly therefore for the temperance men
in the same party to- begin to marshal
their forces and line them up for battle.
Judging from recent experience in
local affairs, the Anti Saloon League
will be cipher in the contest. The
fight should be made-at least so far as
Middle and West Tennessee are concern
ed, in the democratic ranks, and by earn
est, intelligent, practical, temperance

ization ana work, is NOW.

IT IS NOT INTERESTED
Railroad VIII Not Engage in the
 Ocean Traffic.

General Manager E. (. Hawkins, of the White Pass &Yukon, says the railroad company will have no inter est in the new line of steamers that is to be put on the iSkagway-V -Vancou- yer run, through the instrumentality of A. H. B. Macgowan, agent for the White Pass & Yukon at Vancouver. He disclaims that the railroad com pany will have any greater interest in the new company than in any other on the run from the sound
 The Victoria Colonist quotes MT. Hawkins as follows:
 "Mr. Hawkins said this afternoon that the White Pass & Yukon Railway Company had no intention of handling the ocean business of the northern transportation, more than what they have done in the past, and further more would grant no special conces- sions to any ocean line of steamers. Mir. Macgowan of Vancouver had in- terviewed his company in regard to placing new vessels on the run to Skagway, and said that he purposed interesting London capitalists in the scheme, but the w. P. & Y. Com pany had no more concern in this line than any other. It was proposed, however, to add from three to five steamers to the Canadian Development Company's lake and river fleet

A MILE FROM GLACIER
Engin, Left the Rails and Castings Were Making Good Time When Accident Occurred-New Castings Were Sent Out By Dog Team Late Last Evening.

The southbound passenger left the Summit yesterday and bucked drifts ranging from eight to twenty-five feet until one mile from Glacier, where the engine left the rails, breaking the cast ings and rendering it helpless until the broken parts can be replaced.
 Early yesterday morning the train started out and made good headway through the hard snow. About every mile the boilers had to be filled with snow, and much delay was caused by high drifts that had to be shoveled down to a I2-foot level.
 One mile from Glacier, after the worst part of the trip had apparently been accomplished, the engine and TO- tary left the rails and two castings were badly broken.
 After several attempts to patch the broken parts, Superintendent J. P. Rogers telegraphed down to send up new castings with dog teams. Only one dog team could be procured last night, and a gang of eight men were sent out at midnight to pull second sled
 Breaking a trail up through the deep snow will be a hard task and take much time, and in all probability the train will not reach here before Mon- day night

SUSPENDED OPERATION
Work on Moore Wharf Improve
 ments Stopped.

Work on the additions to Moore wharf that are in course of construc- ton by the Moore Wharf Company, was stopped yesterday by Manager Shaw. When Mir. Shaw was asked his reasons for the shutdown he said:
 Tt is partly caused by the severity of the weather and partly by the re- cent decision in the Moore townsite case, the company not caring to make any farther improvements until the exact terms of the decision are known, and C. Wynn-Johnson can be heard from"
 A large number of men were thrown out of work by the suspension of op- erations.
