THE FLOOD AND ITS CON
SEQUENCES.

1t is practically impossible to esti
mate the losses occasi oned by the recent
high water in this county. At first
it was guessed at 800, 600. Then at
$500, 600. Later at $500, 600. But if it
could all be reckoned, we doubt not
that it would exceed half million.
We stand and see logs and rails float
by and forget that it will cost time
and labor ana money to supply their
places. We see that the water is vel
low and muddy. The mud in that
water, if it could be properly distri
buted and put back where it came
from. would be worth thousands of
dollars to the farmers of Maury county.
A chicken coop floats by; the loss
of it will cost somebody a dollar or
two, and these little things count.
Perhaps a thousand houses, large and
small, have been destroyed or badly
damaged. Half the mills have been
badly hurt. Quite number of the
larger bridges, and an untold number
of smaller ones, are gone from their
places; Great gulleys are plowed up
and down and across the pixies and
county roads. Telegraph and tele-
phone lines and poles are down, and
railway tracks undermined, making
the damage in the aggregate enormous.
The results from the cyclone were far
more heartrending and sad, but the
money loss is not to be compared with
this. The bank losses were more APP
parent and appalling and more general,
but really not so great. The deposits
on hand in the three falling banks did
not exceed a half million dollars; and
after time about half of that was
But from this food there
will be half million dollars in value
swept away, never to return to its
original owners. Four fifths of it,
nearly, falls upon the farmer, who
has had continuous bad luck for the
last two years. and it will hurt; and
in places it will hurt badly. And
what hurts the farmer hurts the town
for the bulk of Columbias trade
comes from the country.
So the business outlook for the i'm.
future is not very bright; but
there is this hope ahead: Maury |
county is wonderfully resourceful and |
faster and quicker always
than Is expected. and one good crop
year would make wonderful change. |
Let us hope that that Is in store for
us this year, and let us bend our
energies to make the most possible
1ut Of it.

the score for which the party will have
to settle with the people at the polls.
There is poor consolation in that,
however; for in the meantime Mr..

treasury and decamped with the pelf.

mo one will sympathize with Ter
ernce V. Powderly in his dismissal
from the position of the commissioner
general of immigration, says the
Commoner. "Mr. Powderly's accep-
lance of that position was disappoint-
ment to many men who had come to
admire him because they believed
him to be true friend of the laboring
men. And now that he has been
thrown overheard by the politicians to

stantial service he finds himself with
out any sympathizers and dependent
upon the melancholy reflection that
he sold his birthright for mess of
pottage. -

TONERS.
With the Board practically a unit
in favor of this proposition. and the
opposition unorganized and resigned.
a further agitation upon our part
seems unnecessary. We shall not con-
tinue the discussion, therefore, unless
some new feature presents itself. If
Alderman Bennett and other tax
payers want to enJoin the proceedings,
the Herald will help them. If they
do not. the Herald will submit with
the balance of them. If the PROPOSE
tion is good for Columbia. the Herald
cannot be kept out of participation
in its advantages. If it is bad, we
can stand 1t about as we'll as the
average man.
The Herald has always been against
such subsidies. We opposed State
aid to the Tennessee Centennial. We
opposed county exhibit to the Ten
nessee Centennial, to be paid for out
of the county treasury. We opposed
Federal aid to the Worlds Fair. and
we are opposed to the Ship Subsidy
Bill and to State aid to the State
J r job. We are opposed to all such |
looting of the public treasury. We are
opposed to all such exercise of the
taxing power. The underlying princi-
pie of the depot subsidy is the same as
the underlying principle of the Ship
subsidy, and the principle is wrong.
1t is such jobs as these, lobbied
through the Federal Congress, State
Legislatures and Municipal Boards of
Mayor and Aldermen. that make the
burden of taxation SO heavy. 1t is in
