Lucian "A. Wood.

Wednesday morning at O'Clock,
Lucian A Wood, Circuit Clerk of this
County died at jackson. Mr.. Wood
was a member of one of the promin-
ent and stalwart families who have
made the best history of their county
and State. In politics. in war, in re-
construction and in peace the Woods
race has impressed itself upon the
life of the contemparneous times, and
Lucian Wood, upon the incidents of
his day, not the least among them.
The Affections which diseases brought
upon him had disabled him for few
years from active usefulness suffer
exacted its tribute and robbed his
friends, his family and the public OF
his service and companionship. Him
reveals it in all the doings and rela-
tions of life, and is a true man in
deed This man whose life has Just
closed wore it gracefully and now
that he has surrendered ii for a
crown of higher reward his friends
and family can not but grieve and re-
greet. II is not so much grief a. a
deprivation for our friends to be
called to better state or condition
even if we are separated from that ex-
istence by the gates ofdeath, through
which we will all ultimately pass and
be reunited upon the shores Ct
another world.
Mr.. Woods remains were brought
to this county and inferred IN the

Twenty years ago an author who

tariff" will never give us any mate
rial reduction.
As to the Democrats who voted for
the imposition OF duties. they have
as a rule defended their conduct on
the ground that the duties voted for
were revenue duties. ana they have
not been high duties. Measured on
an adyalorem basis, the duty on lum-
Der and iron ore are but n small por
ton OF the price. think that the
Democrats who voted for the duty
made a mistake.
The Democratic platform demanded
