In reference to the defeat of Schcnck, he
wanted to say word and was glad his oppo-
ncnt had spoken of it. Schenck lives in Dem
ocratic district was able by his popularity to
there is a Soldiers Home, and in some way the
vote of those soldiers was thrown out. and that,
and that alone defeated him.
He had one competitor but four opponent in

To protection of home manufactures. He was
in favor of it. II was first endorsed by our fore
fathers in 1889, when they passed bill for that
purpose AS an example of how much benefit
il is to the country he cited the iron interests of
Tennessee, and referred particularly to Rock
wood, whose success was owing to the protec-
ton extended by the Government, and was of
more benefit to this county as a market than
both Knoxville and Nashville. He said the
gentlomnn's remarks about the appropriations
for the river above Chattanooga were not per-
tinent. That work had been commenced on the
principal distractions, and as soon n they were
removed those above would soon give way. In

ish enough to ask why he did not put up the
ydffers.
The speaking was conducted with the greatest
courtesy on both sides, much to the satisfaction
of all. Every one seemed to appreciate Mr.
Billiards. honesty, and good intentions, but
could not fail to be impressed with the fact, that
if the Democratic party expect to ever beat Mr.
Maynard, they must secure "a much stronger
man than Col. BLIZZARD. OldRoanc will be con
hond' at the election, and will give Mr.. May
nard four hundred and fifty majority.
