HuNTlNoooN's TROUBLES.

The question of repeating the
charter of Huntingdon in order to
abolish the open saloons has fur
nished the people of Carroll Coun-
ty topic for discussion that has
pEogen intensely interesting and
the matter has now grown to a fe-
YER heat, attracting general atten-
tion. That both factions, the tenn
perance and anti-temperanee, have
been too vindictive and severe in
their efforts for and against the re-
peal, is foregone conclusion, the
result of which is that the feeling
will live for years aud be of harm
to the people and great drawback
to the town of Huntingdon.
When the subject first came up
for discussion, it placed the senator
and representatives from that dis
trict in an unenviable position, or,
in other words, "between the devil
and the deep blue sea-" Senator
Fryer finally issued an ultimatum
10 his, constituents, directing them
to hold an election in the town of
Huntingdon to- decide the matter,
and promised to. abide by the re-
suit thereof. This was also. agreed
to by Representatives Peeler snd
Bowers. The election was held
and the temperance people won a
hard fought battle. To onlookers
from a distance the matter was
thought to be definitely settled,
but to the dismay of the temper
ance people and the surprise of
others, when the bill was introduc-
ed, Senator Fryer went before the
committee and had the bill reject
ed.
This action has Thoroughly pro-
voked the ire of the temperance
people and the senator has been
forced to submit to much harsh
criticism.
AS a sample we submit below
the resolution adopted at Hunting
don last Tuesday night anent Sen
ator Flyers course in the matter:
"Wheress, we, the people of the
town of Huntington, Tenn, who
have made the fight for the aboli.
ton of the open saloon in our town
feel that the conduct of our sena-
tor, R. III. Fryer, has been such as
to merit the most positive denun-
ciationS and
"Whereas, we feel that he has
acted in bad faith with the temper
ance people from the beginning to
the end of this whole matter; and
"Whereas, we believe his actions
were especially corrupt in ignor-
ing the result of the election on
March 25th, which he himself had
requested to be held, and which
was held 1.-TWO representative men
whoopposed therepeal and one who
favored it sitting as judges }, the re-
suit of which he refused to abide
by; and
4Whereas, these thinga are true
together with many things too ted
Gus and reprehensible to mention
which shows a most aggravated
case of double dealing; and
"Whereas, we believe that such
corruption in public officials should
be exposed, and that all such pea.
nut politicians should be RELOCATED
to that dark oblivion from which
they so suddenly sprang; therefore

be it most solemply and unaui-
mously
Resolved, That we regard his
course Rs having but few equals for
genuine duplicity,
"lhat we do here aqd now pub
lish him to the world as politician
full Of guile and utterly unworthy
the white robes Of Office.
"That his presence in the senate
chamber as a representative from
this senatorial district is a constant
reminder of loathsome corruption
and we demand his resignation, and
that hereafter he be known as Fry
er the infamous"
And on last Saturday night about
one hundred of the citizens Of Nc
Kenzie held a public mass-meeting
and adopted the following resolu-
tons:
ave the citizens Of Carroll Coun-
ty, Tenn, and Of the twenty-ffth
senatorial district Of said State,
irrespective of party affiliations, in
mass-meeting assembled at Nc
Kenzie Tenn, on this, the 9th of
April, 1901, do hereby make and
publish the following resolutions
declaring our unequivocal endorse
ment of the same:
Resolved, that we hold that per-
sonal honesty and unpurchasable
integrity is an indispensable requi-
site in all public officials, and SO
holding, we view with horr0E, not
unmixed with shame, the recent
treacherous course Of our State
senator, R. Henry Fryer, in turn
ing at the last moment and DELHI
erately and premeditatedly violat-
ing a solemen compact made at his
instance in regard to the repeal of
the charter of Huntingdon our
county seat.
"Resolved, that we consider bv
his false, double-faced, threacher-
Gus action, he has not only fastened
an Odious and debasing traffic up
on the good people of our county
and sister town for two long years,
but has himself forfeited the conf
dence of his constituents.
Resolved, that as token of our
displeasure and 'detestation of the
conduct of the said senator, R. Hen.
ry Fryer, in thus without sufficient
excuse falsifying bis pHghted word
of honor, we deem it Sitting and
right as a mark of condemnation oil
said senator's course, that he be
publicly hung in eAigy and after
ward buried so deep chat no trum.
pet of political resurrection will
ever reach him as a warning to all
others who may prove false to
themselves and to the people"
And again, several nights age
Senator Fryer was hung in efigy
by the people of Hollow Rock and
buried with jug on his breast.
This is caustic treatment and is
not to be commended in quiet citi.
zens unless the facts absolutely and
fully warrant such stringent pro-
cedure.
The CHRONICLE does not know
the facts and the affair in detail
in fact, it is none of our fight, vel
we have awaited some word from
Senator Fryer feeling that he
should, upon behalf of his friends
make his position clear and explain
his actions in the matter, and there
are several now astride the fenc,
awaiting something from the sen

woRKINGMAN's TRAINS.

Massachusetts has taken a long step in
a direction which THE NATIONAL TRIB-
USE has been pointing for years. She pro-
vides by law for workingman'S trains on
any railroad terminating in Boston. Such
trains shall arrive at Boston between
and T:30 a: m. and between $50 and 7
p. m. every week day, and shall depart be-
tween the same hours. For such trains,
for distances not exceeding 10 miles, sea-
son tickets shall be furnished at Il rate
not exceeding S3 per mile per year, and
quarterly and weekly tickets ut rate not
exceeding 81 per mile per quarter, and
such tickets to be good once day each
way for six days in the week.
This is the beginning of system which
will be followed up all over the country, as
the people realize its benefits, and viii be
of the greatest advantage TO the health,
morals, and politics of the whole country.
1t will break up the congestion in the
cities. and help greatly TO circumscribe the
Slums. WorkinSmen of all grades Will be
encouraged TO establish themselves In
cheap homes in the country, where they
will have pure aiP and wholesome sur
roundings, physical and social. Thus a
man can go out five miles into the country,
at an expense of only S15 year, which
will be met several times over by the

always have in the thickly-settled parts Of
the city. In these suburban residences the
workingmen will naturally develop their
own churches. societies, and other features
of American village life. which have been
SO productive of good in shaping the Ma

imagine, a city situated. on a plain, with
trains running out on every side, ,and carry
ing people out 10 miles for small weekly
rate, we shall have q total of 800 square
miles, or $4,000 acres available for settle

for each of 1.000. 600 people, or ~ acres
for each family Of five in a city of .OO0,-

feet directly on their own soil, and help
immensely to develop their citizenship.

ONE CENT . MILE TO CLEVELAND

The representatives OF the Central Pas
senger Association held a meeting at
Cleveland, o., March 81, and agreed TO
give cent-a-mile rate to the National
Encampment at Cleveland, and a commit
tee was appointed to formulate ticket
conditions, and make other necessary ar
rangements. This settles the matter so
far as the roads east of the Mississippi
are concerned. Now the Western Pas
senger Association, with which we have
lad most trouble in the past, is to be
heard from. 1t was not in a good frame
OF mind over the removal of the National
Encampment from Denver, but it may
come to reason since that demonstration
that the G. A. r. is tired of being jollied
with, and when it says thing means it.

We'll. we don't want your help. The

INSPIRED ROT.

Mr.. Evans's syndicate of newspaper
correspondents have suddenly become ac-
tive again, and are sending out lot of
the old driyel about the ATTACKS Of the
pension sharks, who want to loot the
Treasury" professional veterans" who
are agitating against the one conspicu-
ously ''honest" man in the present Ad-
ministration, etc, etc. This rotten stuff,
| which excited some attention four years
ago, has become very tiresome, particu-
/ larly here in Washington, where the facts
are known. The Washington papers are
| poiling q good deal of fun at its authors
People are always disposed to get very
tired and suspicious of a man who is con-
| tinually proclaiming his own honesty, with
a consequent implication that he is dis
tinguished in this particular from his
| brother officials, who are saying nothing,
but attending TO their duties, and letting
| their work tell as TO their honesty i
man who is forever asserting his honesty,
or woman her virtue, will bear watch
| ing. Most of MS manage TO be reason
ably honest without saying anything
about it.
1t is hard TO say whether the object Of
the sudden and simultaneous renewal of
these publications is to bully the Presi-
dent INTO giving Evans a better Office
than las yet been offered him, or to pre-
pare the public mind for his continuance
in Office. Against the latter is the prom.
Use made last Summer that Evans should
not be reappointed, and so the likelihood
is in favor of the design to press the
President to give Evans place bigger in
salary and position than that ho now
holds. Evans wants the salary and to
save his face"
