The wild man who has been alarming
the people of Seguatchie Valley, Tenn.,
for some weeks past, has been captured

been investing extensively in mountain
lands in Franklin county. The young
man disappeared mysteriously some
three months ago. It was thought he had
been abducted or killed and Miss Bt.
Pierre offered a large reward for his re
covery. He is a raving maniac and his
long exposure in the mountains has given
him the appearance of a veritable wild
pun.
The Deputy Marshal Evil.
The facts that are being brought out by
Mr. Spnnjrer’3 committee relative to the
u-e of deputy United States marshals on
election day in Cincinnati and other parts
of Ohio, are such as to justify Congress in
passing a law forever prohibiting the
employment of deputy marshals as peace
officers or in any other capacity at the
polls.
The greater part of the witnesses thus
far examined has been Republicans, and
they have not been, by any means, either
swift or willing witnesses. The facts
they have been torced to disclose, how
ever, are sufficient to condemn the deputy
marshal plan of preserving the peace
and preventing election frauds.
The United States Marshal of Ohio
spent over 117,000 in the city of Cincin
nati in order to secure, as he claims, a
fair election for Congressmen in that city.
The testimony appears to show that the
purpose was to elect the Republican
ticket. Men, apparently ol the roughest
character, armed with pistols and wear
ing the badges of marshals, surrounded
the polls in all parts of the city, and by
their hostile demonstrations and threats
succeeded in keeping a good many re
spectable and peaceably disposed people
away from the ballot boxes. In some lo
calities they did more than make threats.
On very slight pretexts, or on no
pretexts at all. they arrested
and kept confined, until the
polls were closed, a great many persons
they had reason to know intended to vote
the Democratic ticket. There were some
respectable looking men among this army
of deputies, but they had been selected
for show, and were not expected to do any
disreputable work.
One of the worst features of the whole
Republican scheme was the part that the
Tension Bureau played in it. It is not
known, and probably never will tie known,
how many of the principal employes of
the Pension and Patent offices were sent
to Ohio to work in the interest or the Re
publican party. Some of them appeared
in the role of deputy marshals, and, per
haps. helped to lock up citizens who in
tended to vote the Democratic ticket.
The ileouty marshal evil certainly calls
for a prompt remedy. To the thoughtful
citizen and conscientious statesman, the
effort to override the will of the people
by the officers of the general government
is alarming, it is claimed that the depu
ty marshal- succeeded in electing at least
one Congressman in Cincinnati. They
certainly helped to increase the Repub
lican majority in Ohio, and in that way
influenced, to some extent, the national
election in the following month. It does
not appear that they did anything to prt
sgrYe the peace or to prevent frauds, ton
the contrary, they were peace disturbers
and Iraud promoters. If this U6e
of deputy marshals is not stopped
at once who can tell to what it will lead.
If $17,000 can be taken out of the Na
tional Treasury to influence the election
in one city or State may not $1,700,000 be
taken to control an election throughout
the whole country? The evil is great,
and is growing greater. Let it be rem
edietl now while it can ‘>e.
Why Il>' Channel is not Dredged.
The contract for dredging the Savannah
river and harbor was awarded on Nov. 3
last to P. Sanford Ross & Cos., of New
York, and the work was to have been be
gun on Dec. 17. It was not, however, and
there is no indication that it will be be
gun very soon. The work requires a large
plant in the shape of dredges, tugboats,
mudflats, etc., none of which has yet ar
rived. The work ot building the jetties
was begun two months ago, and should
have been vigorously followed by work on
the contract for dredging the channel, as
the effect of placing the jetties causes the
bottom of the channel to shift, and if
the sand is not removed it causes
banks and bars to form at other points.
The neglect to dredge the river is doing
great injury to the commerce of the port.
Vessels get aground at places where, had
the work which we refer to been done
at the proper time, there would have been
no obstruction to navigation. Since Oct.
25 eight vessels have gone aground, which
could have been prevented had the work
on the jetties been promptly followed by
dredging. There is, as stated, no present
prospect that this important wo k will
soon be undertaken, although the con
tract for it has heen awarded. The
matter is one of great importance
to the commerce of Savannah, and there
is a general feeling of indignation among
those who are interested in shipping that
any further damage should be done to
the commerce ol the port by de
lay on the part of the contractors.
It is understood that the City Council and
the mercantile bodies of this city will be
asked to call the attention of the En
gineer department to the present state of
affairs, and ask that prompt action be
taken to have the work on the river and
harl>r pushed forward with all possible
rapidity. The contractors should be made
to comply with the terms of their con
tract.
Phases of the Nicaragua Canal
Question.
The more* the Nicaragua treaty is dis
cussed the plainer it becomes that it in
volves som; very grave questions. For
that reason it Is very doubtful whether
the Senate will be ready to act on it this
session. Before its terms were fully
Known there was some doubt whether the
government was to build the canal or
whether it was to be the work of private
parties. According to the published text
tbe government is to build thecanal and is
to own it jointly with Nicaragua. The
tolls are, also, to be divided between the
two governments. The treaty imposes a
very important obligation on this coun
try. It is to protect the integrity of
the territory of Nicaragua. Such an ol>-
ligatioi. as this will cause Seuators to
think twice before giving the treaty their
approval. However, if this country is to
control the canal it must protect it, and,
also, the territory through which it runs.
To do that means, practically, the protec
tection of the territory of the entire Re
public of Nicaragua.
It is certain that any attempt to carry
out the provisions of the treaty,if it should
be ratified, will meet with the opposition
of England, and. pc.r baps, of other Euro
pean powers. England will insist that
the treaty violates the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty, and she will, doubtless, insist that
that treaty shall be respected. Secretary
Frelinghuysen contends that the action
of England, in taking possession of a por
tion of the Mosquito coast, released this
country from its obligations under that
treaty, but the English Government does
not admit that Mr. Frelinghuysen’s posi
tion is correct.
If the treaty is to make trouble with
European powers we shall need a navy.
We shall hardly be able to carry out that
part ot the treaty which requires Nica
raguan territory to be protected and the
canal to be defended without war ships
capable of coping with those of Earopean
powers. We haven’t got much of a navy
now. Secretary .Chandler in his last re
port said that the only first-class
war vessql in the navy was the Ten
nessee, and that she would be condemned
at the next survey. She cost, first and
last, about as much as one ot England’s
greatest iron clads, but one of those mag
nificent war vessels could easily destroy
a whole fleet of such vessels as tbe Ten
nessee. If England shows a disposition
to be ugly the question ot building a navy
before building the canal may have to be
decided.
England, perhaps, would like to lie in
vited to help build the canal and share in
the tolls. Capt. Pirn, an Englishman of
standing and influence, at present on a
visit to this country, made a suggestion of
that kind when he returned from an in
spection of tbe Nicaragua canal route a
few weeks ago. There are no Indications,
however, that the United States wants
England for a partner in tbe canal enter
prise. While this government has main
tained the Monroe doctrine since It was
announced, the negotiation of the Nicara
guan treaty is the first assertion ot it in a
practical way. II a navy must be built
betore the canal is begun it will be a good
while before the canal will be completed.
The cost of a navy ard the canal will be
a matter that w ill demand serious con
sideration.
It promises to be a merry Christmas
for the plumbers and tbe coal dealers.

WHAT IS MORE ORNAMENTAL THAN TO
SEE A MAN OR BOY NEATLY AND FASHION
ABLY DRESSED, AND THEN THE FACT
OF GETTING YOUR GOODS AT THE VERY
LOWEST PRICES, SO AS TO HAVE SOME

THAT YOU HAD MADE UP YOUR MIND

We Can’t Find Time to Enumerate all Onr Bargains.
OUR NEW YORK RESIDENT BUYER SENDS US CONTINUALLY
IN ALL LINES
THE MOST WONDERFUL BARGAINS.
B I, A K ETS ,
AS low as 35 cents a pair, guaranteed fresh, new and perfect. At $1 25 we sell a very large
pair of White Blankets; at $3 25 we sell Blankets that are worth $6; at 15, which can t
be matched for less than $7 50. We have also excellent bargains in the very fine grades.
Children’s Cloaks and Havelocks.
The most desirable styles, quality and colors were purchased by onr Mr. LICHTENSTEIN
from a failing manufacturer at shout one-third the cost, but he has over-stocked us; we have
enough of them for every child in the city. We are positively suffocated with them, we
must' make room, and, therefore, we don’t mean to ask big prices, but work them off as
quickly as possible.
£1! Wool Medicated Scarlet Gents’ Undershirts at 75c.
If ysu think that they can’t be as good as those sold felaewhere at $1 50, all you have to do
is to come and convince yourself. No such bargain was ever before offered. This is only to
give you au idea what we are doing in G&NIV FURNISHING GOODS. We have the
choicest UVDKRWEAR, Laundried and Unlaundried WHITE and FANCY SHIRTS to be
found anywhere; also, COLLARS, CUFFS, TIES, SCARFS, HANDKERCHIEF, WOOL
ar and COTTON SOCKS, Etc., at rock bottom prices. There are no fancy prices in our house.
DRESS GOODS,
Of all kinds, from the humblest to the very best and latest styles. Prices are marked
down so low that we fear to quote them, as you could hardl; realize the possibility of our
selling such fine qualities at these ridiculous prices, therefore, we say, come and see our
goods before you purchase elsewhere. Should vou, however, desire to buy a BLACK or
COLORED SILK DRESS PATTERN and you do not buy of our celebrated makes, you will
regret it. We will positively save you 33per cent, and giveyou the beat of goods. The same
we insist is the case with our BLACK and COLORED SILK VELVETS.
OTHER PEOPLE’S BARGAINS
Consist of a few leading articles, such as trash CALICO at 8%c., trash CANTON
FLANNEL at 5c., trash DRESS GOODS at sc. We care not to go into particulars,not liking to
hurting anybody’s feelings by being personal in our remarks. Only this, we do say and mean
it, there is no bargain ofiered in any Dry Goods store in this city whose prices we are not
only able but willing to duplicate, and
We Do Meet Them, Cost Wliat May !
Remember, we will not and do not permit a&ybody to undersell us, and are prepared to
give each of our patrons the best possible value. ' M
