Tennessee Crops.

Nashville, April 15.-Section Di-
rector Bates report on Tennessee
crops for the week is as follows:
The week opened with cool wea-
Their, with light frosts on two or
three mornings and snow in the
northeastern portions; the latter
half of the week was more favorable
and the farm work Of the season was
advanced more rapidly. The cool
weather of the past few weeks caus-
ed vegetation to make slow progress
in growth and the early paintings
of corn have done but little good.
The planting of this crop has begun
in earnest on uplands, and blowing
for the subsequent paintings is in
fair progress, also for cotton, pea
nuts, tobacco, etc.
Wheat has made some improve
ment and the early sowing that
withstood the freezes give promise
of better outcome than was ex-
pected few weeks ago.
Spring oats are coming up with
good stands and growing nicely.
Tobacco plants are plentiful and
in good condition. In many sections
farmers are preparing for an in
creased acreage in corn and tobacco.
The crop of Irish potatoes has been
about planted. Meadows are look
ing fine and pastures are improving.
1t is thought that the frosts in
iured the prospects for peaches to
some extent in some sections; but
in others no injury is reported.
Gardening is in good progress.
The general work Of the season
is very backward, and good weather
is needed to restore it to the normal
status.

Roosevelt's Tribute to Wright.

Both of President Roosevelt's
Charleston speeches were happily
conceiyed-neither containing
word or sentiment which could not
be heartily applauded North or
South. He did not rise to any
heights of eloquence as did the Gov
ernor of South Carolina--in fact,
the states chief executive rose al
most too high--but he talked well
and what he said was feiicitously
spoken. But the President is no
orator, as was his predecessor, Nc
Kinley. He devoted a considerable
portion of his Charleston speech TO
a tribute 10 a Tennessean, Gen.
Luke E. Wright. He said:
GA few months ago, owing to the
enforced absence Of the Governor of
the philippines, 1t became neces-
sary 10 nominate Vice Governor
to take his place-one of the most
important places in our Government
at this time. nominated as Vice
Governor an ex Confederate, Gen.
Luke Wright, of Tennessee. 1t is,
therefore, an ex-Confederate who
now stands as the exponent OF this
Government and this people in that
great group of islands in the Eastern
seas over which the American flag
floats. Gen. Wright has taken a
leading part in the work of steadily
bringing order and peace out of the
bloody chaos in which we found the
island. He is now taking a leading
part, not merely in upholding the
honor of the flag, hy making it re-
81 ected as the symbol of our power
but still more in upholdlng its honor
by unwearied labor'for the establish
ment of ordered liberty-of law ere
ating, law-abiding civil government
under it's folds.
The progress which has been
made under Gen. Wright and those
like him has been indeed marvellous.
In fact, letter Of the Generals the
other day seemed to show that he
considered there was far more war

1t is an added proof of the COM
pleteness of the reunion Of our
country that one of the foremost
men who have been instrumental in
driving forward the great work for
civilization and humanity in the
Philippines has been man who, in
the civil war, fought with distinct
ion in a uniform of the Confederate
gray"
Gen. Wright's friends in Tennes-
see are glad his services and worth
are appreciated. 1t is gratifying to
know that no Southerner to whom
the Government has confded

every instance he has proved him.

AN INTERESTING CASE was

AN INTERESTING CASE was
recently decided by the SUI
preme Court at Jackson. 1t
was the appeal of the Hall

from the judgment of the
trial court in W oakley county

wins in the Supreme Court,
getting judgment for the full
amount sued for, with costs.
Miss Copas was a teacher in
the institute, under contract
for year. In the middle
of the term she was dismissed
by the trustees on the ground
that she had been receiving
too much company, impair
ing her usefulness as a teach
er. She asserted her right to
receive company, and de-
manded pay for the full time
of her contract. The women
of Weakley county took up
her cause and it became a
cause celebre. When it came
on trial before the local mag

Hill Speaks at JeffersOn'S Birthday
Banquet.

Banquet.
New York, April 15.-The MEM
bers of the democratic club last
night commemorated the birthday
of Thomas Jefferson with recep-
ton at the club house. David b.
Hill was the chief speaker. He de-
nounced combination of capital, and
was emphatic in opposition to the
retention of our recent acquisitions.
Among other things Mr.. Hill said:
"sThe administration of President
Roosevelt is all at sea. 1t has no
fixed policies and no conscientious
convictions. 1t 'wobbles' upon ev-
cry public question with which it
assumes to deal. The messages and
public addresses of the President
are merely elaborate treatises upon
elementary questions of government
containing nothing new and nothing
definite. He has no policy in OPP
position to that of Congress, and is
prepared to approve whatever Con-
gress does. If any relief whatever
to Cuba shall be secured from the
present administration it will be due
TO the decided stand taken by the
democrats in Congress, insisting that
justice should be done.
''The policy of the administra-
ton in the Philippine Islands is
disgrace to civilization. The at
tempt with regard to these posses
sions to initiate the foreign policy
of England has proved dismal
failure"
Mr.. Hill devoted a considerable
portion of his speech to state mat
tiers. In conclusion he said:
"Fellow democrats, on this day,
devoted to honoring the memory of
one who has been frequently styled
sthe wisest and truest democrat of
his times let US resolve to renew
our allegiance to the principles
which he inculcated and the policies
which he advocated. There are
numerous indications of a revival of
popular confidence in democratic
policies, state and national. A
change of measures and of men
seems to be imperatively demanded
by the best interests of our state and
country. Our opponents have only
succee ded in recent years by unfor-
tunate divisions among ourselves.
Let our faces now be toward the
common enemy. 1t is time for
unity, for organization, for wise
counsels, and for aggressive action"
Gen. Joseph Wheeler followed in
a speech urging harmony, and Ed
win M. Shepard eulogized D. B.
Hill and w. J. Bryan. State Sen
ator Grandy spoke of the high char
acter of Thomas Jefferson, and said
further that not only was the State
Legislature corruptible, but that
such was the case regarding Con-
Gress.
He declared that Congress was
ruled by corporations and that the
people were taxed at the will of
these corporations.
Congressman Thomas B. Ball, of
Texas, urged that harmony rule the
democrats from one end of the land
to the other. He said:
"Texas is willing to get behind
and help New York along. We
will 60 to the next convention ready
to back up any candidate that may
be nominated. If he be from the
West, we will stand behind him. If
he be from Maryland, we will also
be there. If your choice be the
democratic leader here (Mr. HilD,
we will regard him as good thing
and push him along for all he is
worth"
