THE DUFFY OF TEMPERANCE
DEMOCRATS.

The Carroll County Democrat is right
when it says, "On temperance demo
Gratis must rest the responsibility Of
the failure or success of the temperance
cause in the State. Temperance re-
publicans and temperance Prohibi-
tionlsts can aid very materially in
creating public sentiment, but through
the party in power. success must come. -
The temperance sentiment is strong
enough to elect the next Tennessee
legislature but in union there is
strength, and therefore the temper
ance democrats ought to organize and
understand each other and vote as a
unit for one man for each office AS we
have said before, the fight ought not
to be put off until the November cleo
tion. The temperance democrats ought
to vote together in the April primary.
so that the nominees for that primary
will give their influence in November
to the temperance candidates for the
legislature The machinery of the
party ought to be in the hands Of the
temperance people; and can be, if they
will only rise up and take it. Temper
ance men ought to vote their principles.
In this campaign the ''plain duty
Of every temperance democrat is, first,
to vote in the April primary; second,
to vote for the best temperance demo-
crat offering. Not to vote, is playing
exactly into the hands of the whiskey
men. Suppose all the temperance
democrats should stay out of the pri-
maries, what progress would the tenn
perance cause ever make in Tennessee.
Second, to vote for the best temper
ance man is to vote against the
whisk ey candidate and to vote against
the man with the temperance record,
is to discourage other men to make tenn
perance records. IL all the temperance
democrats will vote. there is no dan
ger OF any nan being nominated
whom temperance men cannot conscien
tiously support

The Mayor and Aldermen at their last
meeting discussed the question of how
often and for what purpose saloon
keeper could enter his place of business
on Sunday. Does the Board propose to
constitute themselves judges of the
law? How exceedingly solicitous they
are over the rights of the saloon
keeper! What is the use a nibbling at
the question? Why not repeal all the
laws regulating the traffic, and have a
wide-open town?

CARMACk'S OPINION.
Resolution Protesting Against TAX
ing in Philippines as States.

Washington, Feb. 9.-Senator Car
mack to-day introduced the following
Joint resolutions:
THAT the United States regard with
extreme disfavor any movement having
for it's object the early or ultimate ad
mission of the Philippine Islands as a
State or States of the Union; and any ac-
ton on the part of persons holding office
under the authority of the United States
that give sanction or encouragement 10
such movement is hereby condemned.
That to confer the rights and privileges
of citizens upon the inhabitants Of the
Philippine Islands would tend to destroy
the integrity Of citizenship and to de-
grade the character of the Government
of the United States. That to maintain
the relation Of sovereign and subject be-
tween the Government OF the United
States and people under its dominion
would be repugnant to the principles Of
the Constitution"
