Senator Tillman, of South Caro |111 lina, lectured at Memphis & few;*' nights ago and while there gave,**1 to * ropojter of The Commercial- ^ Appeal an interview, which, if reported accurately, is entitled to c< tank as his moat extraordinary ^ utterance lie told the newspaper w man that the Democratic party ^ "was in an unsettled, shapeless ** sort of a fix, and was simply sail c< iog ajong without chart or com- n' pass,n and outlined, thus, what ^ ought to he done for the dere^ Hot: - 8' "The situation requires a man n who has remained with the party, although he may have done so at 'f the sacrifice of his personal views Tl on the silver question. He must ^ n ?t he a radical silver man, for ^ that would excite the enmity of * the gold standard Democrats, and ^ he must not he a van who has " refused to stand hy the party, ^ because the silver people, and we 81 can't win without them, will net 2 support such a ticket. lie should ^ ? he a man who believed in the gold standard and \ et put aside his 11 personal views and accepted the P will of his party as final in the u past contests." c What ! Nominate a man who ' has all the while believed in the <*eld standard ! This is an amazing concession from on# who, as 81 tho fVickshurg, Miss., Herald n said, a little over a year ago, of ? the gold standard people: "We ' - j don't want such cattle in eur Jr party. Drive theua out. Get ^ rid of them. Stand !>y free coinage or you are no Democrat." w Now the huilder wants to put at ^ the head of the co-ner one of these Y stones which he just a little while ^ , ego refused. a Hilt we cannot holiava that P - > """" " Senator Tillman uttered these sentiments.

It being C( practically impossible to run a * ' semi weekly paper the size of the Enterprise for $1, the public will ^ not be surprised at the change. a Of course there is not much savine in issuing it once a week, ** since there is just as much reading ' matter in the one issue now as * there was in the two whea issued T* serai-weekly.?Lancaster Enter- 'r prise.

Since tho untimely end of that I ] fant industry, "The Ames ; wen Chorry Tree Company," I i? skeptical have been predicting ' le failure of "the father of them j 1"?the South newspaper con- ! >rn of Monticailo, Fla , which is le firet of tha "get rich-quick" i henias to ha started Tha nap- 1 in ring concerns and ether ahor- ' re infringements on tha Smith jpyright have been failing and t?v comes tha annoucament that mith has made an assignment. For several weeks he has been ow in muking remittances, and ow his agents are being informed lat they are apt to come out >sers in this matter. Smith's aledictory is very atfecting and as a "touching" ring about it. le is, or was the publisher of 'he Weekly Constitution and The fonthlv Reporter, notoriously 'sorry1' papers, hut they have rought him over 40,000 aubcribers through his system of iving eniplo} nient to agents to 0 writing at home. Some of bene agents in Columbia are sadly 1 need of the money which they lit into the business and would Imost be willing to sacrifice their laims for pay for work they have one if they could get back the loaey advanced. The last of Smith's ventures is ummed up in the following statelent, which he issued under date f January 4th: 'o the Public: Leaving the University of reorgia in 1880 I moved to Monicello and in a few years afterguards?I haven't the exact day efore me, but seven or eight ears ago, I took charge of The fonticello Weekly Cr nstitution, nd have continuously edited and uhlished that paper to the present ime.
