'Free Schools, Immigration, Better Roads
etc."
Thus you conclude an editorial of ytS'
terday morning, written witli reference to
tne supposed complexion oi tno incoming
legislature, being composed oi iiejmun
cans and Independents." ion seem to
think that successful efforts will be made
to have free schools, immigration, better
roads, and legislation liberal and progrcs
sive enough to make Tennessee what ii.t
ture intended she should be, the Empire
State or tlie'fcoutn.
Your correspondent ardently hopes that
such may be tlte result Up to tlie pres
ent time but little him been done in tills
direction, whether attributable to the su-
plneness or tne party in power or to otlier
causes, is tho question. Tlie Democratic
party has never been liberal ami progres
sive, unfortunately. It has clung to dead
Issues and lostered ideas as old as tlie ev
erlastiug hills. For this reason it has beei
utterly unable to comprehend the fact that
tliu world is moving, and taut a nigii ue
gree of energy and enterprise are now
needed to 'keep along with tlie stirring
times In which we live.
In common with you and others, I am
now exceedingly hopeful as to tho future
! results in our Statu. Tlie upheavel which
wo Have Had in Tennessee pontics, tnrow
ing overboard an absolute and fossilized
cltf-s of men and bringing to the surface
more active and wide-awake class, can not
i lan, ast tinnsc, to place our material in
terests iwn Uigli ground, Especially will
tills iK) so. It partisan politics arc leiiouto
tho qucstlou, a point that our representtt'
lives suouid Keep sieaoiiy in view. v
have had a surfeit of politics.
For tho honor of our State let something
be done towards tlie organ leation oi a com
prehonbivo school system, tho inaugunv
tion of active measures loukingtotliellood
Hit: o our State with a thrtlty lu industri
ous population and taking nuch stop as
will lead to the improvement of our public

(iOIMJ WEST.
ie- llio Democracy Ilinbnrkctl (or Suit
River.
Pursuant to a secret circular issued from
tlie office of tho "big organ" a crowd of
gloomy individuals gathered on tho banks
of the Holston late last night to embark
up Salt river. Usually, such crowds,
though sad, go harmoniously and offering
mutual consolation, but last night we
think If the Democratic Exchequer had
permitted it, two boats would havo been
furnished tho quarreling half famished
disheartened crowd, for tho Chcathamites
and Johnsonltes were cursing each other
deep and loud.
HOW T1IKY KMllAliKKD.
When they got ready to embark the
mestion was raised who should take the
bow of the boat. Crozier said that this
Andy Johnson bolting wing should go in
nrst. rney nan piayeu tnunucr witn tne
inrtv and oilL'ht to L'O in llrst. Col. John
Williams said as far as that was concerned
he didn't much care. Tho Union men al-
avs had to lead when thero was work to
leddncordangerthrcatened andhecuessed
they could do so again. He had with him
copy oi tno "constitut on" and an
American ling." It was supposed ho had
us lor Aiuiy, as no prayed during tno
canvass that ho hoped when ho died to be
buried witn tne revered instrument ol tne
fathers and tho starry emblem of tlie nation.
Col. John said he was willing to tako tho
post of danger, but he didn't want tlie bow
of the boat, so ho proposed to put Fleming
there, as no was a pilot at tlie neini or tno
hie ortran" to guiiie tlie people. Tho edi
tor accepted tho post. At tills point several
Ulicatnam men spono up aim saiu mat as a
