1 An Indiana Experiment. A new colony in Tennessee, aboot two miles from Tennessee City, is attracting coasiderabte attention jost ms tot ?me Indiana farra-j they ha* their doobta/Sbout tic?, all s* they/organized landT?B7>e??ee and settled ori it in a body. They tre building a town, and with their own churches, schools, newspaper and other institu? tions they will pall together and feel at home in a strange land. These Indianians will lind when they get better acquainted with our people that it was not necessary for them to organize a colony. They could scatter and go singly into any southern state and receive a cordial welcome if they are good citizens; Still, there is rio objection to the colony system, and it is strange that it bas? ; not "' been more^ generaJ?y trr?SF^^^SB?flS?w^n^p?eo'p^p wno desire to make their homes in this region. It woold be an easy matter to organ? ize numerous colonies of well-to-do northern farmers for settlement in the So a th. With thei r united funds they would be able to get good bargains in lao<? anet Iney could then go to work and build villages and towns to suit themselves. Tue co-operative plan ra some matters would enable tbem to establish themselves more cheaply than if they had to depend upon their individual efforts It is to be hoped that the Indianians in Tennessee will make a success of their experiment-a soc cess that wifi induce others to . follow their example. We need a good ' class of immigrants-and there is room here for millions o? them.-Atlanta Constitution. ? *J ^ The Negro in Politics. 2? - i . t i 'lb . . J ; ? 1 *- j i i f. The Negro in South Carolina is say ?ag, irey liUlo aWmt notiUeav^ -Be is doing nothing. In the two or three districts, in which he might easily electi?l ^o^5pre?Br?afc, there ar? dis? se n sion sWi&di^ri^ as to catt didafes/^W this district "ne might stand a chance of electing a Con? gressman, if (ie had a first class man of ability and integrity of character as a candidate. The colored vote of this district, we believe is a little larger than the white. When we consider that, by the special manip? ulation of the Tillmau ring, two fifths of the white voters are virtually disfranchised and were not allowed any voice in the most important elections in the State, it stands to reason that they will not generally vote in the November election Shoold they stand aside and the Negroes concen? trate on one mau, they would have a good chance of winning, provided their votes were counted. But they will hardly do that. They are not well organized Then if they should show signs of division and a desire to support one or the other of the white factions, Tillman and his ring friends would easily con? trol a majority of them. It is well known that Congressman Murray stands in with the ring ; or at least indications point that way. The great majority of Negroes in the up country are under the influence of the Reformers. The white Repub? licans stand in with them and the colored voters will follow their white friends. In a scramble fox the Negro vote Tillman and his ring would cap? ture three where the Conservatives would get one. Bujt^^h^ ^e^o^^wi^ make no spe? cial effort in the election this year. He seems very indifferent, but he is now under the guidance of wise leaders. They are looking for the "Western light" too, hoping that it will flash forth with dazzling bril? liancy. They know that the whites will then be about evenly divided, with no hope of coming together. When that is the caBe they will be ready for action and voting. Tillman makes a great cry against the Conservatives because they may bid for the Negro vote. He knows that is a false and fraudulent charge. He knows that be can control more of the colored vote than the Conser? vatives can and he and his faction will nae.Ahem. The Conservatives are moving on quietly and just ask to be let alone. The Negrees will take cate of themselves-Carolina Spartan. --?-^a-??-?* mmm The last Mexican Governor of Cali? fornia baa just died, aged 94 years. Near Browliog Green, Va , a negro criminally assaulted a 7-year-old white girl on Monday. He was arrested and yesterday be was indicted, tried, con? victed and sentenced to be hanged November 14th. The little girl will probably die. While in Chicago, Mr. Charles L. Kahler, a prominent shoe merchant of Des Moines, Iowa, bad qnite a serious time of it He took such a severe cold that be could hardly talk or navigate, bat the prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy cured him of | his cold so qaicly that others at the hotel who bad bad colds followed his example and half a dozen persons ordered it from the nearest drug store. They were profuse in their thanks to Mr. Kahler for telling them how to cure a bad cold so quickly. For sale by Dr. A. J. China. JOS. F. RH AME. WM. C. DAVIS.

It is suggested by a scientist of Chicago that a correat of electricity bridged the lake and took the flames across. At aoy rate the fact remaios that the lake did oot cheek the progress of the fire.
