The Mountain Banner, in announcing the election
of DR.. Mills, says:
"Dr. Ladson A Mills, one OF the representatives
elect from this county, processes, we believe, to be
Wing, though he has acted but little with that party
for the last three four years. He is StaesRghts
and Southern Rights man, and goes for Mr.. Cling
man for u. S. Senator-not because Mr.. G.. is
Wing, but because he is for the maintenance of the
Rights OF the South. Dr.. Mills supported Gov. Reid
in 1850 and again this year. and attaches himself to
Democrat. and we only regret he will not call him
self so-we are very willing to receive him in the
ranks and have no objection in putting him down as
a Democratic gain in Rutherford"
