WE WILL WIN IN 1900. 3 The Tennessee Statesman Expresses His Opinion on Politics. Thie declaration is from the old Democratic war horse, the Hon. Benton McMillin, of Tennessee. In an interview telegraphed from Wash ington he says: “I have no fear for the future of the democratic party. The party will live because it is the party which has never sacrificed its principles for the sake of victory; because it has atood firm in the period of greatest advermty. It is in defeat to-day, in my humble judgment, partly becauee it failed to succeed in giving the re- forms it promised on demooratic lines. We did not put enough of the things we preached in the campaign on the statute books. “We shall carry the house next year. Look at the bill which has just been put through thehoure and see what it bas done to the tariff. In all but two or three schedules the rates have been advanced beyond the rates in the McKinley law. In the face of this, I can quote interviews with Procter, Cullom and other lead- ing republicans in the senate after the election of 1890, all saying that the rates in the McKinley law were too high. Ifthe people would not stand that law what do you think they are going to do with the people who made the Dingley bill? “Anether thing that is going to injure the republicans in the opera. tion of the now tariff law is the fact : that they admit that it is going to if take $100,000,000 out of circulation i to pass through the custom houses ' andso reducethe circulating medium i and the republicans are not going to i make any effort to increase the circu- lating medium. I thiok that Presi- dent McKinley would like to do it— his published utterances speak for him—but they are not going to let him do it. Now, even if we admit the contention of the republicans that there is enough money to day, you must remember the fact that this country is growing all the time and the republican party is not mak- ing any attempt through congress to provide for the increase in popu- lation. We will not carry the house next year, but we will elect a demo. cratic congress and president in 1900.” Suffered 27 Years With Kidney Disease. Mr. G. A.

A poor little school with such men at its head? And teachers any school would proudly claim. The first was Rev. Mr. Campbell—you’ve read Of the camel’s disposition, ‘‘yet, what's in a name.’’ man severe was he, but never stern to view, He always wore a smiling face, a stylish suit, a white cravat, A gaudy nosegay on his coat, and he a preacher too, B Alas! heleft hiskindiy words at home, with his silken hat.

In dishonoring the best man under the sun, But he looked like that chivalrous knight, long, lank and lean, He’s done more good than all the knights have done. Mr. Powel A knight of a sorrowful countenance was he, For he had drank deeply of pain and woe. And ’twas asorry countenance too, he’d had small pox, you see But a beautiful face to the pupils that loved him so. We screamed and laughed in perfect delight, But our fun didn’t last very long. Till the wakened sleepers along the way, Arose in fury, and said they'd have us arrested If we didn’t keep still—we had to obey.

Many Hesperia: re shining in the west to day Shining eo brilliantly, the world is calling for more. Take all the pupils the Academy has ever had We'll visit every one to-day. Consider their influence for good or bad, t In the world’s great balances, how do they weigh? If you’re going to count their averdupois, I fear they'll prove light weight, For they’re ‘‘mighty’’ thin, these Academy girls and boys; So was Alexander, yet people call him great. And the majority of these students are great, Though very few are ‘‘two hundred pounders. ’” They’re making themselves felt in every state, In all great enterprises, they are builders. Then one must do great deeds to be great? Nay, ‘tis oft the little deeds, but nobly done, Earnest, patient, toiling early and late. Success without sacrifice comes to none.
