Another irrefutable proof that Mr..
George was right is the fact that ev-
cry system of aristocracy, whether an
cient or modern, rests upon landlord
ism. A 'nobleman," a duke, count
or earl, without rent roll, without
a landed estate, is nobody, can op
press none, may have to drive hack
for living, as some are actually do
ing now in London. 1t Is not the title
but the grant of land conferred with
it that hurts.-W. Fl. T. Wakefield.

of the Creator, from this ignoring an
defying of His social laws there arise
{ in the very heart OF our civilization
those horrible and monstrous things
that betoken social putrefaction.
AS we have made, and are still
making, enormous advances on ma
terial lines, It becomes necessary that
we commensurately advance on moral
lines. Civilization as it progresses i =
ouires a higher conscience, keencr
sense of justice, warmer brother
hood, wider, loftier, truer public
spirit Failing these, civilization must
pass into destruction. 1t cannot be
maintained on the ethics of savagery.
, The social and political problems
that confront us are darker than they
realize who have not given thought
to them; yet their solution is mere
matter of the adjustment Of social
forces. Man masters material nature
by studying her laws, and in condl-
tions and powers that seemed most
forbidding, has already found his rich
est storehouses and most powerful
servants. Although we have but be-
J
physical nature, it is evident that she
will refuse us no desire if we but
seek its qualification in accordance
with her laws.
And that faculty of adapting means
to ends which has enabled man to
convert the once impossible ocean
into his highway, to transport him
self with speed that leaves the shall
low behind, to annihilate space in the
communication of his thought, to con-
vert the rocks into warmth and light
and power and material for a thou
sand uses, to weigh the stars and
analyze the sun, to make ice under the
equator and bid flowers bloom in
northern winters, will also, if he will,
use 1t, enabls him to overcome social
difficulties and avoid social dangers.
The domain Of law is not confined to
physical nature. 1t just as certainly
embraces the mental and moral uni
verse, and social growth and social
life have their laws as fixed as those
Of matter and motion. Would we
make social life healthy and happy,
we must discover those laws and seek
cur ends in accordance with them.
This fiscal reform is not to be Sc
cured by noise, by complaints and de-
nunciation; by the formation of par
ties or the making of revolutions; but
by the awakening Of thought and the
progress of ideas. When there Is cor
rect thought right action will follow.
Power Is always in the hands of the
people. What oppresses the masses is
their own short-sighted selfishness.

a Recent CommOtion.
Charleston News and Courier (Dem)

Charleston News and Courier tDem)
The most pronounced display of very
bad manners that we have noted in long
time must be credited to the account OF
some of the society people Of Dallas, lex
An entertainment has been given in that
CITY in the interest of the local kindergar'
ten. Mis-. Roosevelt, the wife ofthe Presl-
dent, was requested to make a contrlou'
ton. In compliance with this request and
without understanding "what was wanted
or what was in contemplation as an en-
tertainment," as Mrs. Henry G. Coke, OF
Dallas, explained the other day, she sent a
handkerchief to b. sold for the benefit oi
the kindergarten Association. As the
story goes, the handkerchief lis cotton
machine hemstitched, and some assert
that it could be duplicated in any dry
goods store IN Dallas for ten cents, OF three
for a quarter" 4 majority of the people
In charge of the entertainment resolved,
after much heated discussion, that MIS-.
Roosevelt's gift should be returned to her,
latter it had been exhibited at so much
per look at the reception"
We agree with Mrs. Coke that Mrs.
Roosevelt "did not receive fair play" and
her gift in aid Of the entertainment at Dal'
las was far better than it deserved. There
was no reason in the wor why she should
be asked to make any sort of gilt in aid OF
a kindergarten fair anywhere, and partlcu
larly in a community which she has never
visited, and in which she can feel no
special interest. She vas asked to make
a contribution to the Dallas fair because
she happens to be the wife of the Presi-
dent of the United States and she assumed
doubtless that it was not the intrinsic
valre of the gift she made, but the gift IT.
self that would he Of interest to the Dallas
people. If the beggars felt otherwise they
ought to have stated in their letter reques-
ting a contribution that no contribution
would be received unless it was worth so
much. 1t is not an evidence Of the best
breeding to value gift according to the
price marked on the tag. The Texans
ought to have told the lady how much
they would expect her gift to be worth in
dollars and cents.
The New York "World' says that Mrs.
Coke, lone of the foremost society WON
en- of Dallas, was the strongest defender
Mrs. Roosevelt had" and that she said
that those who criticised her most &c
verely we're Northern women" Our only
regret is that these Northern women
selected a Southern State in which to make
a display of their native manners.

A Contemporaries Taunt.

The Richmond Times. Dispatch does not
undertake to deny the accusation we have
made against it of fragrant inconsistency
in denouncing Mr.. Roosevelt for acts
which it has condoned in Mr.. Cleveland
Perhaps The Times. Dispatch thinks by
ignoring the charge it can continue in this
course; but we serve notice on it that it
shall confess, deny, discontinue, or be con
st2ntly reminded of its inconsistent posi-
ton. And the public shall be kept in
formed, as far as we are able to accomplish,
in all humble way, that end.-Tazewell
Republican. d.
Our contemporary has not been discreet
in the method it has adopted to draw out
The Times. Dispatch. We were tempted
to throw this clipping into the waste bas-
ket when it was passed up to our desk, for
we do not like the tone of it. We receive
many papers in exchange and it escaped
us that the Tazewell Republican had
raised this question and charged The
Times Dispatch with inconsistency. We
suppose it refers to the fact alleged that
Pr esident Cleveland invited negroes to
public receptions at the White House. We
do not approve all that President Cleve-
land did, and we do not set up at his
champion. But there is this marked diff
ference between the attitude of President
Cleveland and that of President Roosevelt
towards the negro question. Mr.. Cleve-
land treated the negro with all needful
consideration, but he never treated him
as a social equal, nor did President
Mckinley. The latter, it is said, appoint
ed more negroes to Office than President
Roosevelt has, done. But Mr.. Mckinley
did not defy the whole South aud did not
force the negro upon the South in an Of
fensive manner. Little was said about
negroes in the White House in MIR. Cleve-
lands time, or in Mr. McKinley's time,
because everybody knew how these gentle

mere incidents in official life and without
But President Roosevelt entertained a
negro at bis private table and received
him as a social equal. After that he APP
pointed negroes to positions where they
would have to come in daily intercourse
with large numbers of whites, and appoin-
ted them because they were negroes, in rec
ignition of the negro race AID in defiance
of the whites. In short, Mr.. Roosevelt
has determined, as far as he can, tc wipe
out the color line.
If our Tazewell contemporary does not
see the difference between the acts of
President Cleveland and the acts of Presi J
Roosevelt in relation to this question, it
must be blind indeed, and we are not will
to pursue the discussion. Richmond

AT THE DELHI DURBAR.
Great Event Among the HOused-Up
Women, who Make No End of
Fuss Over 1t.

The programme seems a trife dull,
but l can imagine a vast deal of
sheer amusement being got out of it..
Take one house l wot of, where an
old Turk of a retired risalder rules
an arcaded courtyard literally
crammed full of female relations.
There may be a new wife by this time
to add to the number, but even So,
l know the oldest one, for whom
Bluebeard has a sincere affection, per-
sonally superintendent what is a pre-
liminary step to all festivals in that
household - the dyeing of the said
beard overnight. 1t is lengthy bust
ness, necessitating much bandaging
of the face as for toothache, and con-
sequent discomfort-chiefy be it said
to the attendant women, writes f. A.
Steel, in Saturday Review.
Not that they care much for this
inevitable accompaniment to the COM
ing freedom of a festival I can see
them in the semi-dark of glimmer-
ing rushlight grouped in corners and
smoothing out the creases in their
best clothes, furnishing up their jew
els, yet deferentially attentive to
that central figure of wrath, bottling
up its curses against the removal of
the bandages. That would be at
dawn, and hereinafter would be the
quaintest mixture of voluble abuse,
affection, annoyance, delight, con-
tempt, admiration, until the blue
black beard, with its owner still
cnrsing but complacent - departs for
Durbar all be-medalled, be-scented,
dressed literally up to his antimonied
eyes.
Hereinafter peace? Nothing Of
the sort. A greater hustle than ever.
Washings and combings and braidings
of hair, staining of finger tips, and
whisper it!-actual servings on from
ankle to knee of fashionably cut
trousers far too tight in that par
ticular portion of their fit to allow
of their being drawn over the heel.
And all this is going on not only
in arcaded courts, but in tenement
houses, even in secluded alleys and
under the gray sky; going on calmly
quite regardless of the casual passers-
by Perhaps the women hold that
their chatter is sufficient to deaden
sight as well as sound. Anyhow, it is
sufficient for most things. That and
the crunching of sweetmeats.

Tendency of the Times.

The tendency Of medical science is to-
wand preventive measures. The bert
thought of the world Is being given to the
subject. 1t is easier and better to prevent
than to cure. 1t has been fully demon
strated that pneumonia, one of the most
dangerous diseases that medical men have
to contend with, can be prevented by the
use of Chamberlain Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from a cold or
from an attack of influenza grip, and 1t
has been obser we'd that this remedy conn-
teracts any tendency of these diseases to-
ward pneumonia. This has been fully
proven in many thousands Of cases in
Which this remedy has been used during
the great prevalence of colds and grip in
recent years, and can be relied upon with
implicit confidence. Pneumonia often re-
suits from a slight cold when no danger is
apprehended until it is suddenly discover
ed that there is fever and difficulty in
breathing aud pains in the chest, then it
is announced that the patient has pneu-
monia. Be on the safe side and take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soou as
the cold is contracted. 1t always cures.

STATE NORMAL FOR TAzEwELL.

A bill has been introduced in the State
Senate by Senator ]. n. Hartman for the
establishment of State Normal School for
both sexes at Tazewell, Virginia, or at
such town in the ninth congressional dis
trict of Virginia as shall be decided upon
by the Board of Trustees. The bill has
been referred to a special joint committee
on local and private legislation.
We cannot undertake to say what proba-
bility there is for securing the passage of
the bill, but it would be eminently ju>t
and proper for the Great Southwest to
have such an institution; and we know OF
no place more favorable for its location
than Tazewell. The Ninth Congressional
District or Southwest Virginia is rapidly
increasing in population and wealth, and
this section VIII, before great WIlile'
is not already SO, be the most important
part of the State. We do not believe IN
carrying the sectional idea too far, but the
Southwest has had but little consideration
heretofore in the location of State lnstltu
tons, especially in the educational line
The eastern part of the State has beer
very literally dealt with in that line, anC
we hope the representatives from that anC
other sections of the State will give Mr.
Harman's bill favorable consideration anC
help to pass it.
