The,Chattanooga Times is hav
ing its hands full trying to recon
cile the press of the three States to
the Tri-State exhibit to the Worlds
Fair.
It is said that the Kansas sub-
Alliances are rejecting the third
party movement, thus giving a
black eye to the would be leaders oi
a project already written down as
a failure.
It appears to us as an exhibi
tion of cowardice for a newspaper
man to strike a t a contemporary in
a vague and indefinite editorial. It
looks like he was afraid of the
other fellow and wanted to give
him a thrust in the dark.
At the Republican Convention of
Ohio Wednesday, Foraker nomi
nated McKinley for Governor
which was seconded by a negro “in
behalf of the 30,000 colored voters
of Ohio.” McKinley is one step
nearer his political grave; and
when the State election of Ohio
comes off he will b? buried in
such a manner that his stench will
never again be noticeable.
The fact that the press of the
three States are united against the
Tri-State World’s Fair project;
and the acts of the Chattanooga
convention being treated as a farce
all over the thiee States, should
convince the News and the Times
of Chattanooga that the editor of
this paper “wasn’t the darned fool
they heard he was,” or it should be
acknowledged hy those papers that
we have converted the remainder
of the three States outside of Chat
tanooga to our way of thinking.
Chattanooga has two great papers
but they cant make a right out of a
wrong,
In refusing to publish a letter
from the editor of this paper ex
plaining his motives in opposing a
change from an exhibit at the
Worlds Fair from the “Chattanoo
ga Mineral District” so as to make
it a Tri-State exhibit. The Chat
tanooga News says, “we do not be
lieve in giving the poor lone one
the dignity of according him an
explanation.”
After we had entered our pro
test before the convention a note
was passed to us from a well known
gentleman of Nashville who had
been voted the privileges of the
floor which read as follows :
“You are right, this convention is
not a fair representation of any
State; and no action here car bind
any State.”
Before we left the convention
hall two representatives of the
News who were present, shook our
hand and said, “you were < right.”
Oh no, not entirely alone when
such distinguished gentlemen have
agreed with us. r We are inclined
to give more.force"t'o an expression
of a News man uttered in private
than to take as an honest expres
sion what may be said through the
columns of the News where policy
may direct its utterances.
Although the Chattanooga News
has published “comirunications di
rectly from our pen and not only
pronounced them good but “very
good,” we never considered that
any dignity had been conferred up
on us.

From Morganville.
Mr. Editor: —I have been
thinking for some time that in a
literary point of view I might he a
success, for like the old mans coon
dog 1 have not been much account
at anything else. So when your
request appeared for a live corres
pondent in every precinct, 1 could
not resist the temptation to spread
myself. 1 knew from the amount
of beans and berries that disa) -
peared to-day that i was not dead.
Talking about that, caused me to
think of the big picnic Morganville
and Sligo will have next Saturday
at the old homestead of the Ben
•neti family; you must come, make
us a speech and get something good
to eat.
I have been over to crawfish \
more recently Chicamauga, and of
course you have heard of the en
campment which begins this week,
hut had you heard that it was to
he lighted hv electricity ?
You never saw a people so proud
of a railroad as sonv of those
arc t nr **; -hr prv‘i'*go *
had nt giving the company one and I
two miles of right-of-way. W<
thought if they knew the troubl
some of us have with cattle guards
and schedules that are no benefit
to local travelers that they would
rue their bargains. We have a
railroad which pays us reasonable
prices for what they kill, and it
would be cheaper for them to fense
it, but sometimes they kill some
thing we did not want to sell and
then we get just like you felt when
you replied last week in your paper
to that note about the bee from As
calon. We took twenty pounds
of something from our bees this
morning that would put you in a
better humor and unless we are in
Washington or Waubatchie we
aim to be on hand next Saturday
at the pic-nic with a good supply.
If this is published I may write
the neighborhood news next time
and if it is not we shall make the
changes we deem necessary and
doubtless you will in a few weeks
read it in Scribner, or some of
those magazines or journals which
are always glad to have original
matter from a fresh, verdanr source.
Let me add that lam truly glad
to say that we have a very flour
ishing Sabbath school, which is a
great blessing to any community.
Yours truly, A. Daisy.
