Department Given Long and Needless

Burning SCOT in a chimney of the
old Peter Brown residence, corner of
College and Forrest streets, caused q
scare yesterday. Two or three fami-

caused some alarm among them. The

to the call, running o hail mile in pelt-

SEN AToR CARM ACK.

Quoting what one Of the Washing
ton correspondents says about Senator
Carmack, the Chattanooga News re-
marks
1.-TWO years ago the News said all
these things about Congressman Car
mack predicting that he would be
elected to the United States Senate and
that he would quickly forge to the
front as leader of his party. Some
of the critics who were then ridicul-
ing him are now praising him. Ten
nessee has never had in our judgment,
a more promising representative in
Washington than Senator Carmack. He
is already regarded as one Of the
strongest men in the Senate, and as
this correspondent says, he has the
ability and courage to stand up for the
and ideals of his own section
Senatorial dignity does not permit Mr..
Carmack to make set speech yet
awhile, but when the time is ripe he
will have something to say, and when
he says it the Congressional Record will
be much more interesting than it is
now.'

THE WY TO WIN IN 1904.

The St. Louis Republic takes an
optimistic view of the political situa-
tion. 1t says:
''If the same spirit of party harmony
and Of devotion to the party which
prevailed in this week s convention of
the Democratic County Committeeman
of Missouri shall obtain nationally in
1904, the Democratic party will elect
the next President of the United
States.
''This is the plainest of truths The
American people are to-day more
solicitous for the triumph of Demo-
cratic principles than ever before in
their history. They have cause to be
solicitous. They now clearly perceive
the tremendous perils created by the
Republican party's surrender of Ameri-
can faith. They turn for relief to the
Democracy. They will be glad to sup
port and elect Democratic President
on Democratic platform.
''All that is necessary for Democratic
victory in 1904 is that the party shall
bring out the full Democratic vote of
the United States. Harmonious organi
cation will accomplish this. Not re-
organization, as suggested by those
whose Interior purpose is disorganiza-
ton, but the compact alignment of the
"a, ,,~ fr,.
nation, with every Democrat working
and Loyalty for the Demo-
cratic cause American Democracy
was never more vital than right now.
What is needed is the opportunity for
its full expression. .

Government by injunction seems to
be the saloon mans only hope; and
that is like a drowning man grabbing
at straw. The Dickson saloon man has
obtained an injunction enjoining the
town authorities from interfering

OF similar kind that have been heard,
the injunction will DE dissolved. and
then the saloon man and his straw will

The deed of the Virginia Carolina

of certain lands in this and Hickman

the lands in Maury being valued al
$12, 900 only. A part of this land con-
sists Of the McMeen and Porter tracts
of land, in the Carter's Creek neigh
borhood the balance we know nothing
about. But these two places alone cost
the first mentioned company more than
three times the value above put down
upon them, and still it is claimed that
the real value of the lands is three
times the purchase price. The fictitious
price named in the deed, being for
the purpose Of oefrauding the State
out of portion of its tax. This Is a
sample case OF how corporations in
general escape taxation; how the rich,

FREE TuRNPIKEs.

The people Of the country arr
Strangely slow sometimes to accep
suggestions to their benefit They ar,
strangely jealous. too. of 1.-THE town. .
Things they would like to have. they
decline to accept because it would
help the town Just as If the
growth and prosperity and success OF
the town would not insure to them a
more certain and higher market for all
their produce.
They had rather sa ddle horse. ride
mile or two. lose an hour or two
from their work going for their mail
than to have it brought to them alb
solutely free. At least some of them
thought they had. We have heard
none of them complaining. however,
since the rural route carriers began
making their calls.
These country people could have free
turnpikes if they wanted them; but
they don't seem to want them. 1t
might bring trade to Columbia. Just
as if that trade would not get value
received by coming to Columbia. Just
as if that trade, if it wants to come
to Columbia, ought not to be allowed
to come. Just as if people in the
country should be required to pay toll
as a punishment for trading with
their relatives and friends in Columbia.
They seem to lose sight of the fact
that toll gates keep people in town as
we'll as out of town. A business man
In Columbia wouldn't mind living
three or four miles on good pike in
the country, if it didn't cost him toll
every time he came to his business.
Grocerylnen, when they run short of
poultry and produce, hams and shout
ders, butter and eggs, wouldn't mind
sending few miles in the country
and collecting load if there were no
toll bars across the pike.
Toll is heavy tax upon travel; and
anything that lessons travel, reduces |
trade; and the less trading there is
so in proportion is the prosperity and
general welfare of the country inter
fered with. The more people read, the
more they travel, the more they trade,
buying and selling from each other,
the more prosperous and happy the
general condition of the country will
be.
This county we live in is "the dim
pie Of the universe. All the people
need to make them prosperous happy
Ind great, is to live right and intelli
gently consider our public affairs.
Personal jealousy never made anybody
happy. No man ever gained enduring
by trying to hog his neigh
,or out of trade. The tariff principle
s wrong because it hampers and re-
tricts the trade between nations.
Toll pixies are hurtful because they
lamper both trade and sociability be-
;ween neighborhoods.

candidates at the August election; and
hundreds of as good Democrats as there
are in Maury county have promised
them their votes at the August election.
These men do not want to be asked
to violate their personal pledges. They
made them in good faith and want
to red een them. The custom of the
party these last four years has been to
make no nominations; the last declara-
tion of the party was that these were
non-political offices they had no notice
or expectation Of any contemplated
change in the party policy on the con-
trary they had every reason to believe
no nominations would be made. Now,
without any public discussion, for the
committee at this late day, at the be-
hest and in tn interest Of some of the
candidates, and in opposition to the
wishes and against the interest of
others, to throw the party into family
row seems to us the most inopportune,
wreckless, unwise and unreasonable
thing they could do 1t will not only
jeopardise the party's interest in the
August election, but will create di-
vision, factions and feelings that will
not stop there, but will be strongly felt
to the hurt Of the party in November,
when the Democrats will certainly
have no votes to spare.
