Naturally, and as was expected
there is more or less trouble about
the mails in Maurv now, as nearly
every body's postoffice has been chan
ged. But the trouble lies principal ly
with the individual If you are not
getting your Herald, it is your fault.
II you do not notify us to change to
YOUR new route, of course We cannot
do it. If you tell us the wrong num-
Der, the mistake Is yours. The name
of the carrier has nothing to do with
it. The number of the route ana
where it starts FROM is the all impor-
tsnt thing. Quite number of post
offices in this county will be absolutely
discontinued on the 31st Of the month,
and if in the meantime you have not
ordered your mail to your new route,
your letters will De sent to the dead
letter Office, and your papers chucked
into the waste basket. If you are in

Some Of our contemporaries are dis
cusslng the question Of recognizing

cutting out the monthlies ara leaving

The trip passes for the last outing
were granted upon application to
Mr.. Robt. Gates. Heretofore the
outing was given complimentary to
the Press Association, and the Secre-
tary of the Association issued passes
to all accredited members. But now.
forsooth, the l.. u N. wants to get q
tirmer hold upon the press OF the
State, and they require all credentials
to be reviewed by their man Gates,
and upon application transportation
will be issued by him. Self-respecting
newspaper men should resent this, and
many OF them have, and the outing.
under these conditions, should be en-
joyed alone by the subsidized sheets
OF the l.. d N.

The Chicago Chronicle says that those
who object to the experimentation OF
the democratic party are mistaken
in the assumption that there are two
wings of the democratic party" The
Chronicle adds: There is democratic
party and there is populist party. "
Commenting upon this statement, the
Buffalo IN. " Times says: According
to this there must be about 6,5OO,OOO
populists and 1873 900 democrats. judging

o,BRIrN AND WHITNEY MUST
HANG.

Gov. Beckham of Kentucky has
declined to interfere with the death
penalty of Claud OBrien and Earl
Whitney, the Nashville burglars who
murdered Mr.. A. b. Ch1nn OF Licking
ton, KY, while attempting to rob his
house.
The fate of these youthful criminals
should not only be warning to otner
boys, but, better still, 1t should be a
warning to parents. II these boys had
been kept off the streets and at home
OF nights, they would never have con-
tracted the passion for outlawry, the
drink habit, or the practice OF entering
other peoples' houses and numbering
old men in their beds.
They sowed to the wind ana are
reaping the whirlwind, but they are
not alone to blame for the sad rate
that has so early overtaken tnem'
Their natural protectors are not WIN
out blame, for allowing them to rush
headlong and pell-mell into the hell
they have made for themselv Ives. Ii
love fal led and the rod would not deter
them. iron bars had been better before
the deed than after. An ounce OF
determination would have prevalle q
more before the murder was done, than
an ocean of tears and entreaules ana
pleadings since.
The wonder is, not that these boys
were overtaken, but that so many
escape and the pity Is that so many
narents are 80 slow to learn the sad
lesson that the street is school FOL
crime. Your boy, mine, any boy
can run about the streets In one nigh'
and hear more ribald oaths. more
obscene talk, and get more fool notions
in his head than the best OF mothers
can pray out in year.
The street is no place for BOY, day
or night. Every parent IN Columbus
knows that most of them will admit
it, though some will think that theil
BOYS are so marvellously and wonder
fully made that they are not ike other
boys; and so the sad fact remains that
the streets of Columbia, night and
day, are alive with boys yet in their
teens. with some even who have not
reached their teens

AN INTERESTING DISPUTE.

Rev. Newell Dwlgh. Hills OF the
Plymouth church. Brooklyn. aud Sena-
tor Chauncey Depew are engaged 10
an interesting dispute as TO the efieca
of great wealth. DIR. Hills said In
sermon recently.
Il want to say that we will all go
TO the devil ON $50, 900 a year. least
a great many men / know are going 10
the devil on that sum-and very few
are escaping il. Once q mau has an
income of that much money a year,
he is apt 10 forget. in the came way
that a man forgets to say grace after
be has dIned.
To-day we are raising pampered
sons and daughters, surrounding them
with every luxury and idle satisfaction
of the decade. and they are rotten
before they are ripe repeat it-they
are rotten before they are ripe-and
the poys in many cases are sinful
before they are bearded.
They practice the ten command
ments with the shall nots left out,
and | warn them that in the future
they will find that God and nature
practice the ten commandments, OUT
the 'snall nots' are left IN.
Il cannont pick up paper. but
that | see the 400 of this city engag-
ed in divorce suite.
II tremble for my country when all
the work the preacher does at one END
in marrying, the Judge undoes at the
other end in the divorce court.
IF the women of my congregation
who are suffering with nervous pros'
tration had the will power to take
nine out of every ten of their frocKs
into the back yard and burn them. do
not think they would longer be
troubled with their nervous prost- J.
tion.
This is pretty strong language
for the pastor of a prominent New
York church, aud no one who is
familiar with the situation can doubt
that there is truth in what he says.
Now comes Senator Chauncey Depew
with his reply. He says:
cit all amounts to this: Whether a
man mas, first, an inclination to go to
the devil; or, secondly, will power
enough to resist the temptations 10
take him there. If man possesses
the first or lacks the second condition,
he can Just as well go to the devil on
$40, 600 a year as on 500, OC0.
He then goes on to argue that the
sons OF the very rich are less liable to
dissipation than the sons OF families
of moderate means who come IN from
the country. The trouble with
Senator Depew's argument, says the
Commoner, is that he does not
give enough consideration to his
second proposition. Very few men
have an inclination to go to the devil;
the great trouble Ia that they yield to
temptation, and the temptations that
come to those who are idle are greater
than the temptations that come to
those who are necessarily occupied.
The divorce suits that seem to be 80
frequent among the "4OO'' are largely
due to the fact that having no useful
employment and spending their time
IN the search of pleasure. they fail to
find any real enjoyment at home or
anywhere else. The temptations OF
such life are not only greater than
the temptations that come to those
whose hands and thoughts are occu'
pied, but the strength to resist tempta-
ton is also weakened by high living.

THE GENERAL GAME Law.

The last legislature gave Ten nessee
for the first time in her history gen
eral game law applicable to every
county in the State. This law pro-
vides a Game Warden system, with
out which game laws are seldom en-
creed this is the experience OF other
States. No warden system or game
law, however, can be success unless
supported by public sentiment.
That the general game law was
wisely framed and the interests of far
mers and landowners strin gently pro-
tected, is generally conceded.
Col Joseph H. Acklen. Congress
man, ex. President OF the Bar Associa-
tion, prominent lawyer OF Nash
VILE, ana withal an ardent sportsman,
was appointed State Game Warden.
The office Is without salary, but will
require the incumbent to visit many
of the counties of the State as a sacra-
flee of time and money. Col. Ackl en-
has addressed letter to the press Of
Tennessee which appears elsewhere.
The American Endorses this letter ana
commends its perusal to all who are
interested in the protection OF the
game of our State. Nashville Ameri'
can.

do not forget says the Common
er, "tbat in the great work of preserv-
ing democratic principles and protect
ing the democratic party from the
merciless hands of the trust magnates,
the humblest member of the party can
accomplish great results. One demo-
crat firmly devoted to the principles OF
his party, ever watchful for the well
fare of his country, and willing to
SPEAK and to work according to his con
vlctions, may accomplish more-in the
organization of his party and the sue
cessful defense of it's principles-than

they may be with an ample supply OF
syndlcate money.

SALVATIONIST CRIMINAL
CAUGHT

Texarkana, Jan. 6.-The chief of police at Kansas City wired officers here this afternoon that he has James L. Jackson in jail and will hold him until advised from here. Jackson was indicted by the grand jury on the Texas side last September, charged with assault to murder his wife. The couple had been married about year, Jackson being an active member of the local Salvation Army camp and his wife leading worker. It was thought for long time that the wo- man would die of her injuries, but she finally recovered. Jackson escaped, but was subsequently, arrested at St. Joseph, Mo-, while conducting Salv- ation Army street meeting, and was brought back here. He soon sue ceeded in breaking jail and escaping again, since which he has been at large. An officer will go to Kansas City and bring him back tomorrow.

FRISCO INVITED TO
 ENTER LITTLE ROCK.

Little Rock, Jan. 6-Little Rock
 business interests Monday took de cisive steps looking to bringing the
 Frisco railway system to this city. It
 has been understood here for months past that the Frisco intended to in-
 clude Little Rock OH it's St. Louis New Orleans line, probably extending it's line now at HoNie to Little Rock, as was contemplated by the Newman Erb railroad scheme, recently absorbed by the Frisco. The business interests of Little Rock desire to hasten the ad
 vent of the Frisco, and that, above all else, it shall come into Little Rock over it's own rails. As the result of the movement, joint action was taken today by the city, the State Board of Trade and the Little Rock Board of Trade. The effort made is to induce President Yoakum Of the Frisco to pay a personal visit to Little Rock, and to that end letters urging his personal presence in Little Rock were forwarded to him today by Hon. w. R. Duley, mayor of Little Rock; Col. J. A. Woodson, president of the Ar kansas State Board of Trade, and A. B. Hamburg, president of the Little Rock Board of Trade. Statistical statements were forwarded to MT. Yoakum, showing the development of Little Rock, the commercial tonnage generally and the growth of the cotton traffic. If he accepts the invitation so cordially presented, it is believed that the Frisco will be in Little Rock before the close of the present year.
