DEAR HERALD AND TRIBUNE:

Noticing in your last issue the commu-
nication from .(Miss) UNowHo, giving .
most glowing description of the Tourna-
mcpt at Elizabcthton, which came off
July, 25th, inst, Upon reading it, l saw
at once that the false that fills
every ear through East Tennessee, was
confirmed by the idea she conveyed. In
order that you may comprehend my mean
ing, l will endeavor to give you a short
storyto prove the absurdity o fsuch report.
The report is this. That for two years
past l have been the most successful
Knight in the State of Kentucky. Il
would be proud if such was the case) and
during the reign of Knight recently in this
and surrounding country. l have repre-
sented myself as having had no experience
or practice. my experience as a Knight
has been since the 22nd, of last June,
when l made my first ride at Davaults
Ford, since that time, 1 rode at this place
(Johnson City, July 4th. at Elizabethton,
July 18th, being all the experience ]
have had, and the knowing and willful
misrepresentation cannot be authenticated
as the gentlemen lave beer very kind in
giving this room in their columns, [ trust
will not have to bother them again by
writing on this subject, SO l will leave
the matter with you.

SHOULD BE

We are fas. approaching if we have not
already attained tho maximum of poiiti-
cal corruption in our party organizations.
Ne do net speak of parties in reference
10 the administration Of the government
but of their internal doings as parties.
Both Of the the TIVE great parties are
cursed with q set of political tricksters
and corrupt men who care for neither
party nor principle, and who would sacri-
ice both on their altar Of diabolical am
bition for gain. This evil must be sup
pressed, or the best of the country must
suffer and a price be set on rascality.
How shall it be doue7 VIC can suggest
but one way. that is for tho good and
substantial men of both parties. to come
to the rescue and stand fer their country
not party. for once. and the work will be
dooe. Take such power from the cor
rupt and the profigatc. and place it IN
the fands Of honest men is q platform on
which all honest men can stand, without
any sacra6ce Of political principles. Let
us lay aside personal preference then and
mite for the suppression of this evil. In
making this 6ght We must not underrate
the strength of our common enemy. we
must have good men as candidates for
officers in whose personal character they
have the highestguarantee of honesty and
integrity. s. SIS

In another column will be found a card
from Judge Gillenwaters. which explains
itself. The public know very well the
source from which this report referred to
emanates.
The Judge is too well known to the
people of the first District to need any
,indication at our hands. We know he
has never asked, and does not now seek
a seat it Congress. If he would accept a
nomination for Congress he could get it at
the hands of his own party, and this is the
cause of the reposs being circulated. 1t
the Judge should be a,candidate we doubt
not bat he would be sup3eFte@ by a large
number of Democrats but this support
would be given On account Of his known
ability, bright Christian character. and
known inability to stoop to do a mean act.
A large number of his own paFty hays
urged him repeatedly to make the race
for Congress, but he has never accepted
their proposition and always discouraged
any movement of the kind.

Information having reached me that a
certain gentleman, now seeking the nom
ination as Republican candidate for Con-
gress in this District, is telling our peo-
pie on the street and elsewhere, that l am
seeking and anxious to receive the nomi-
nation at the hands of the Democratic
party as a candidate for Congress on the
Greeley ticket, / deem it due to myself
if not to others, to state, in this public
way, that the statement is utterly false.
l desire no nomination on such terms and
would not except Of it if rendered. L
have not sought a nomination at the hands
of any party, aud do not desire it.
Such has been my statement to men OF
all parties, and in all parts of the Dis
trict. when Intercepted on the subject.
I have said in reply to a question often
propounded as to whether l would con-
sent to become a candidate under any cir
cumstances, that if / should be a candi-
date at all it would be in response to what
1 conceived to be the prevailing senti-
ment amongst good and true men of the
Republican faith in the District,
Il have said that RepublicanIsm
as I understand it is essentially liber-
al in spirit but just and true in principle,
and that those who hold to this doctrine
and apply this test to the political isms of
the day, are the good and true men of the
country. and constitute the true Republi-
can party Of the Nation.
i have said moreover. that should l be.
at any time honored with a seat in Con-
gress that while I would be true TO Re
publican principles l would no more, for
party purposes do a mean thing, an unjust
thing, or a disreputable thing as Con-
gresham than 1 would on the bench for
a like purpose.
An Office should be used strictly to law,
and the purposes of it's creation, and
should not be prostituted and used for
low and base purposes, and in violation of
tho trust confded.
1 have said moreover, that we should
tender to the people for their support, a
q man Of such high sense of honor and
high appreciation of the right as would in
himself afford a guaranty of integrity,
honesty and good faith in his conduct as
the representative of the people. >
The above is about the substance of
what I have said in connection with the
Congressional race, and need not say more

Effected for them a permanent cure. Fhe

from time to time for the past several

the springs or furnish Accommodations to

Over 500 visited the springs during the
watering season last year. Up to- this
date the number is more than twice that

more to provide a supply before they are

MUST buy or borrow. Whereas if you
look out in time you can choose your op-
p~ortunity for obtaining more. But should
you ACCIDENTALLY run short of an abb
