Thirty-five, in the Knox County Jail,
Rebelled Against the JaiEer-Offi-
GERS Held at Bay for Two Hourse.

Knoxville, Tenn, September 25.-
Thirty-fve negro prisoners, including
IS murderers, two of whom are SEN
fenced to die, rebelled against the
jailer at the Knox county Jail last
last night, refusing to go from the
corridor into their cells. For two
hours they kept the officers at bay.
Although inclosed by bars, four
Of the officers were cut with bottles
thrown by the prisoners, and G. A.
Reeder, Jr., aged u, son Of the sheriff
slightly cut. The jailer turned the
hose on the refractory negroes, but
this frenzied them. The negroes final
ly captured the hose and turned it On
the officers and then attacked the lat
ter with bottles, plates, cups and
saucers, and with broom handles on
the end of which open knives were
fastened.
Three of the officers were hemmed
in by the egrOeS and had to draw
their pistols in order to get out Of
range of the bottles. The arrival of
the sheriff and police finally Quelled
the negroes. The trouble is said to
have resulted from the negroes read
ing Of the Atlanta riot.

A BLOW at Senator Bailey.

The Texans are going wild. A Fort
Worth dispatch TO the New York
Times, of Sunday says that "promi-
nent Texas Democrats, once the most
Ioyal supporters of Senator Joseph
Weldon Bailey, today dealt him the
hardest blow he has received since the
publication Of the disclosures brought
out in the Missouri custer proceedings
against the Waters-Pierce Oil com-
pany. They ask President Roosevelt
to investigate Bailey's career and to
use his influence, if the charges OF
Bailey's connection with the Oil trust
are sustained, to drive the Texan from
the senate. We do not see that this Is
such a hard blow. The appeal OF dem
ocrats to a republican president to in
terfere in their family quarrels should
naturally draw sympathy to Bailey.
We were a little bit shaky about
Bailey's prospects at first. Now, we
are confident that he is sats.-Char-

Washington, September 5.-Colonel
Isaac r. Hill, better known as Colonel
Ike Hill, of Ohio, and for thirty-hve
years an employee, almost continuously
of the house of representatives, liz
here today from a complication Of kid
ney, liver and heart trouble. For Y
years Colonel Hill was a notable figure
in Ohio politics and latterly in politics
of the nation. He had an extensive,
acquaintance among public men OF ill
political utilization and was held in
cordial regard. His quaint sayings and
his remarkable fund of political remln-
escense made him a genial companion
and his rugged, old fashioned adher-
ence to the tenets of the democratic
party as declared by it's national con-
ventions endeared him to his party as
.sociates. He was an intimate personal
and political friend Of the late Allen
G. Thurman and the late John U.
Thompson, Of Ohio, and under tnelr
tutelage he studied politics and eventn-
allv made it his life work. His deaIn
will be mourned by Thousands.

poses must still pay taxes as other
citizens do: It even says railroads
must pay ordinary taxes on lands which
it is using to furnish it's own railroad
ties, SO strictly does the court still hold
against exemptions. And there is
not a hint in the gross earn
ings law limiting the land to
such strictly railroad use. So we have
the word of our own court to protect
us against any abuse possible from this
exemption clause. Besides all this, the
legislature can absolutely control the
amount Of property any corporation
can own. This exemption scare, then, is
mere bugaboo. Patriotic and intellig gent
citizens will not reasonably defeat the
proposed amendment and SO postpone
the present hopeful opportunity of soon
getting our tax laws upon a modern
and less vexatious and abominable
basis than at present, but will hasten
to wipe out, by the present substitute,
the laundering blocks to intelligent
progress, which our constitution now
throws in the way of just and equitable
tax laws
