Democrats Can Win on
Trusts and Tariff Issues

Washington, July 27.-ssIf the
democrats nominate a good conser-
vative man for President in 1900,
no matter from what section of the
country he may come, and make the
contest on the issues OF the trusts
and tariff we will win," said Repre-
sentative Patterson, of the Memphis
district, to a reporter for the Times
to-day.
''There are plenty of men in the
democratic party who possess presi-
dental qualifications and they are
not confined to any particular Sec
ton of the country. / am opposed
to the theory that the South must
be barred in the matter for furnish
ing the candidate for President
and Vice President. l believe we
should nominate the most available
man, irrespective Of what state he
may live in.
1.-THE democratic party is NOT
looking to the future. The next
campaign will not be fought out on
dead issues. The best evidence of
this is the Ohio state platform. l
heartily lndorse that platform be-
cause it presents to the people live
issues. 1t was great disappolnt-
ment to the republicans when the
Ohio democrats refrained from re-
affirming the Kansas City platform.
| believe democratic conventions in
other states will also do as the Ohio
democrats did, and adopt platforms
to meet the issues of the present IN
stead of the past.
81 see it stated in many of the
leading papers that the republicans
will revise the tariff next winter
Well, it is not at all probable that
the republicans will. intefere with
the source whence they get their
money. In my opinion they will
not revise the tariff. OF course
there will no doubt be many sepa-
rate tariff bills introduced i'll the
House next winter, but / doubt if
any of them will ever formally be re-
ported by the Ways and Means COM
mittee. However, the tariff question
is sure to come to the front, and in
my judgment the tariff and the
trusts will be the issue between the
two parties in 1904"

SILER'S.

Cooper's Chapel Baptist Sunday
School observed Children's Day on
July 21st. This is the third time
we observed Children's Day. Two
years ago we used the Methodist
church. Last year we consolidated
with Piney Grove Baptist church.
This year we had our church almost
completed.
The march was lovely, and the
banner was carried by Misses Nancy
Farris and Minnie Siler, and led by
two little girls, Oracle Wilson and
Malocky Siler-singing, while
marching, "Will you go and speak
to the lost ones here ?"
And after all were seated in the
church, Brow. r. Hill, the pas
tor, opened services by reading the
23rd Psalm and praying.
The welcome address was deliv-
cred in lovely way by Mr.. James
Mcpherson.
There were about 65 pieces said
by the boys and girls, all pertaining
to religion and the up-building of
the cause of Christ.
Bro. John Rush made fine talk
on Sunday Schools, the good that
may come out of one, also plead
ed with the parents to go with
their children, train them up in the
way they should go; 60 to Sunday
School, 90 to church, let the little
children know that you care for
their souls and about their hereafter.
Show it by your works, your deeds,
your walk speak kindly and gently
to them, tell them of our Savior at
home, as well as at Sunday School.
Prof. Temple gave a very good
talk to the young people.
Prof. w. H. Harris gave a lee
ture on cheerfulness.
Bro. Ernest Mcdaniel gave fine
lecture on temperance, the evil and
harm done by drink, and especially
the evil habit brought on by the
social drink.
Bro. Bob Doris led the singing,
which was excellent.
1t was very warm and the house
was crowded TO it's utmost, and as
many more out of doors.
Everything went off nicely and
everybody enjoyed themselves.
Dinner was served at II o'clock
and there was plenty for everybody.
All the children were congratu-
lated on the way and manner in
which they delivered their pieces.

The Indianapolis Gndo
Daily Sentinel, the Demo-
cratic State organ, has crea-
ted a stir among the Bryan
Democrats by printing a lead
ing editorial on Bryan and
silver. Toe comment is adj
dressed to Mr.. Bryan, and is
designed to give him to I'M
derstand that sentiment has
changed in that state, for it
declares that an overwhelm-.
ing majority of the Indiana
Democrats indorse the Ohio
platform. Commenting on
Mr.. Bryan's statement "that
the money question is not out
of politics." the Sentinel de-
clares: eff Mr.. Bryan means
that the question of the free
coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 to /, without the con-
sent Of any other nation, is
not out of politics, the Senti-
mel must reluctantly but en-
phatically differ with him.
And the Sentinel begs leave
to say with all the emphasis
that it can command, that the
silver question is out of poll
tics, if not for all time, at
least for as long a time as
existing conditions prevail,
which may be for a genera
ton or more to come. It is
out of politics because the
American people have three
times passed upon the ques-
ton and have pronounced
with constantly increasing
emphasis against free coin
age. 1t is out of politics be-
cause the business of the
world has adjusted itself to
the gold standard, and be-
cause the relief which free
coinage was expected to at
ford has come from the in
creased supply of gold and
other causes, and, finally, it
is out of politics because
events have evolved another
issue so vital and of such
overshadowing Importance as
to dwarf it into insignifi-
canoe. In conclusion, the
editorial declares that the
"boys III the trenches, the
men who go to the primaries,
are tired Of the fatuous Bour-
bonism which would link the
party to the corpse of an is
sue which, however vital at
one time, has been killed by
the logic of events and buried
under a thrice=repeated ava
lancbe Of popular disapprov-
al.

The unprecedented drouth
throughout the country has
caused a scarcity of corn and
feed stuffs generally, and a
corresponding advance i'll
prices therefore our farmers
should make every effort to
raise as much "roughness" as
possible. A large acreage of
old corn in Hardeman coun-
ty has been cut and shocked e.
The same has been done in
many other counties, and the
land has been Immediately
replanted in corn. Why not
our farmers do likewise {?
Having been well cultivated,
these lands should respond
quickly and favorably with
anything like a season. While
the second crop may not ma
ture, still roasting ears could
be raised, and the stalk will
furnish food for stock. Rec
ords prove that good results
have been obtained from the
second planting of corn even
as late as August 10th. The
experiment is worthy of a
trial.

TALKING BY WRESTLING.

Complete Language Has Been Devel-
Oped by the AbOrigines Of the Ca
nary Islands and Is Used.
There is a perfect whistling language
used by the aborigines of the Canary
islands. and the people can commune
cate with each other over long dis
tances. A stranger wandering over the
islands is frequently surprised to hear
from hilltop the sound of loud whist
ling, which is quickly repeated on the
next HILL and so it is carried from sum-
NIT to summit, until it dies away in the
distance.
But perhaps the most curious means
of communication in the world is the
drum language of an African tribe,
named, as nearly as the word can be
represented in our letters, Thang- Tu.
These queer people can talk to each
other with large drums made Of bam-
boo hoops, over which the skin of some
animal la stretched. The drum is used
only on important occasions-such as
the meeting of war or the trial of some
members of the tribe who have broken
some of the complex religious rules.
Their the head man Of the village. who
Is hidden behind a rough grass screen,
asks questions Of the witnesses by tap
ping on the drum. and finally delivers
judgment by giving either of the three
sharp bangs, which means death to the
prisoner, or the one light tap, that
means reedom.-Philadelphi Times.

THE CHAMPION WING SHOT.

Capt. BOgardus Has a Dangerous
Experience But Comes Out Unhurt.
Ferris Wheel Park, Chicago, Nov. 4th
Capt. A. H. Bogardus, the champion
wing shot of tn. world, has spent the
summer here. His shooting school has
been one Of the features of the Park
during the season. He has given many
exhibitions, and his skill with the rifle
is superb.
The Captain tells of very close cali
he once had when living at Elkhart, Ill.
He had been sufferer from Kidney
Disease for several years, and it rapid
ly developed into Bright's disease. All
his friends told him that this was incur
hble and that he would never get better.
To say that he was alarmed is to put
1t mildly. This plucky man had faced
many dangers, and it made him sick at
heart to think that at last he was to be
conquered by such a cruel foe.
At last he heard of a medicine that
had cured many such cases-Dodd's
Kidney Pills. He used them, and was
completely restored to good health.
He says:-"I attribute my present
good health to Dodd's Kidney Pills and
to nothing else"
