GRANT A SLEDGE-HAMMER, NOT
A STRATEGlST.

Goodwin Smith in his "reminiscences
in the September McClure's gives the
following sketch of General Grant:
Grant was a silent, somewhat satu-
rine man, very simple in his demeanor
and habits. His quarters were a CON-
mon tent, in which was a chest with
his kit marked u. S. G., U. S. A.
He was said to dislike mill
tary, parade and even military
music. He seems to have been
less of a strategist than OF
a sledge-hammer of war, pounding his
enemy by his blows, with little regard
for the expenditure of life. He may
be almost said to have protested the
strategy of attrition. Of this the
bloody battle of Cold Harbour, fought
in a blind country, was a signal in
stance. Why the battles of the Will
derness were fought at all, when the
plan apparently was to hold Lee n
the North while Sherman pierced the
Confederacy to the heart, was a ques-
ton to which l never could get a clear
answer from a soldier. But there can
be no doubt as to the inestimable serv-
ice which Grant by his iron resolution
and in1exible tenacity did the cause
His great victory at Fort Donelson
was the first light of hope in a dark
+ness which seemed almost that of de
spair. He also rendered a great serv
ice by firmly taking the whole wal
into his own hands and out of those OF
the politicians whose meddling haC
done much mischief. "A remark tC
the contrary in an article of the New
York Sun on The Political Elemenr
in NARROWER was from the pen o.
the editor, not that of the writer
His generosity, Grant showed by
handing back to Sherman, when the
attack on Vicksburg had succeeded
the protest which at the Council-of
War Sherman had put in against the
attack. His chivalry was shown by
his demeanor to Lee after the sur
render at Appomattox, when he treat
ed Lee at once as a friend and re
fused to receive his sword, His gooC
feeling and his good sense together he
showed by at once parolling the beat
en- army, providing for their wants
and giving them back their horses foI
the fall ploughing.' He nobly de
clined to enter Richmond as a con
queror."

is the politician and which is the bus
man. So the question is, can
business and politics be separated?
The farmer is interested in what
laws are going to be passed, because
they regulate his business. The me"-
chant is interested because of the
same. and the banker is interested
because the farmers and merchants
are both coming to him from time to
time for loans to carry on their bust
ness. The politician, therefore, knows
that these fellows are interested in
what he is thinking about, and he
knows lust when to call on them, ana
talk matters over, and incidentally
the farmer. the merchants and the
banker will volunteer to contribute a
little mite to help on the good cause
on the. theory that the workman Is
worthy of his pay,
If there were NO business what
need would there be for politicians
for there must be a need for laws be
fore any one will take the time &c
think about them.
The politician is the regulator O
business, and is therefore as much f;
part of the business of any country
or state as any other feature OF ciVi
lization.

THE INSURGENT ELEMENT OF
TODAY.

Amos Pinchot in his article on
1.-TWO Revolts Against Oligarchy IN
the September McClure's says of the
present administration:
NO party ever began an admins
tration with clearer principles n a
greater public service to perform than
the party of Taft. The whole coun-
trv. Democrats and Republicans
alike, were impatient TO help some
one to drive the trusts out OF pohtlcs.
No party since 1860 has had such an
.opportunity to combine service to the
marty with service to the country.
No party in our political history a
90 completely failed to justify the
hope of the people,
Restoration of government by the
majority, reduction of tariff, II a
vigorous prose cution or the conserVa-
tom program of the last adm1nlstrar
tion we're three things demanded by
the country. If after the election, the
Regular party leaders had kept faith,
If they had shown that they consid-
cred driving the trusts out OF poll
tics. tariff reduction, and c~onserVa-
ton something more than mere catch
words of campaign oratory, there
would have been no divided party to-
day. If they had evinced a real pur.
nose to reduce the tariff in spite or
the special interests in the East n
to save the peoples domain in spite
of the special interests in the West,
and if they had made a real effort TO
drive the trusts and railroads out OF
politics both in the East and the west,
there never would have arisen an IN
surgent element to vex the RepuDll'
can reactionaries, just as the insur.
gent element fifty years ago Vexeo

BOND ISSUES.

In the November election the voters
of this city will lave several impor-
tant matters to consider when they
go to cast their votes. 1t is generally
conceded that the election of a governor
will overshadow every other interest on
that day, hut there are two things
which every intelligent voter in Nash
Vile will do we'll to give serious con-
s%ideration, namely; the issuance of
$780, 900 in bonds tor the erection Of
a normal college for the Negro youth
of Tennessee and $500, 900 for the pur-
pose of converting Black Bottom into
a park.
The educating Il the youth of any
state or country is absolutely neces-
sary, if that state or country would
hold a place in the front ranks of civil
lization. No sane person will contend
for a moment that a people can pros
per part educated and part uneducated.
Every Individual has a mind, and that
mind is going to keep active. The
educated and trained mind will worG
to make the community better, while
the uneducated mind is liable to work
to make the community worse. ThC
normal school is to be established fo'
the purpose Of making better citizen.
of the Negro youth of Tennessee, an,
it is believed that every voter in tn
city of Nashville will approve of tn
issuance of these bonds for that pul
pose.
Black Bottom has been an eyesor
10 this city for many years, and the onl
hope of redemption is to wipe it out, an
build where now stand numerous oil
delapidated buildings, occupied b
people who have no regard for then
selves or respect for other peopl
a beautiful park. No taxpayer shoul
feel that it is a burden to increas
taxes for so grand an undertaken
and in November every Negro votc
should vote for these two proposition
and prove to the world that tht
stand for all things that are for Il
good of all the people.

BUSINESS AND POLITICS..

A common expression heard every
where is that politics and business
should be kept separate. The claim
is made that politics polute business,
and that no business man can afford
TO mix up in politics; but every time
some measure is about to be enacted
the business men can be seen putting
their heads right along beside those CT
the politicians and they get so chum.
