From the Memphis Appeal
No one familiar with the political history
of the United States for the past forty years
is ignorant of the personal history and ad
mirable personal qualities of George W
Jones, who through an almost ordinary
lifetime represented the Lincoln district Of
Tennessee in the Congress of the United
States and in that of the Confederacy. The
history of Mr.. Jones' family, of whom
there are five brothers and sister, is re-
markable.
William D. Jones, the oldest brother
born Dec. Is, 1900. Resides in BastroI
county, Texas.
Henry T. Jones, born April 8, 1901. Re
sides in Shelby county, Tenn.
Martin S. Jones, born May 5, 1902. Re
sides in Marshall county, Tenn.
George w. Jones, born March Is, 1906
Resides in Lincoln county, Tenn.
Richard NJ. Jones, born May %, 1907.
Resides in Greene county, Mo. --..
Mary j. Jones, wife OF Georga Small,
born Sept. Is, 1910. Resides IA Shelby
county, Tenn.
The above five brothers and one sis er
were born in King and Queen county, Vir-
Ell4ldJ dllU dlC IAlC vi cO4AOS1
a native of said county of King and Queen,
and Jane Slaughter, his wife, who was a
native of King William county, Virginia.
The mother died in King and Queen coun-
ty, Virginia, October /, 1910, leaving sur
viving her the above named six children,
and one other daughter, about eighteen
months old, who died about two years al
ter the death of her mother. Since the
death of their mother there has been nc
other death among this family Of children
now nearly sixty-two years ago. James
Jones, the father removed with his family
to Giles county, Tennessee, in the spring
of 1916, where he died ON the goth of May
1920.
The five sons and the daughter separated
in 1890, and met for the first time since that
year, 81 years ago, On the attn inst, at the
residence of Henry T. Jones, of the Shelby
County Court, few miles from this city,
All six were in Memphis yesterday and had

ment Of this House, the said John Emilio
Howard was and is a citizen Of the United

and in the opinion ofthis House, the Presi.
dent should promptly demand his uncondi-
tional release and the restoration of his

the Spanish government"
Inland Importers.
The Treasury Department has construed
the act of July IA, 10, in regard to goods
being sent forward to certain inland ports
without appraisement, so as to hereafter
require only the production of the invoice,
showing the destination of the goods to be
for an Inferior port, or in the absence of an
invoice showing such destination, the pro-
duction of the bill of lading and manifest
showing such destination. This will, in
most cases, relieve importers from tho ne
cessity of producing bill of lading before
making an entry of goods.

ted to put the tariff bin and internal revenue

Bearer.
From the Knoxville Press and Herald.
There seems to be no difference of opin-
ion among the Democrats and Conservatives
of East Tennessee, in regard to the 1omi-
nee for the next GovernOrship. The almost
universal satisfaction withthe administration
Of Gov. John c. Brown, leaves no room to
ldoubt that the primary meetings in East
Tennessee will unanimously declare for his
denomination. Middle Tennessee will be
solid for him, and from the West, we hear
no signs Of opposition. We have already
quoted the jackson Wing and Tribune,
and the following from the SOmerville FGl-
con, we presume fairly indicates the drift of
public sentiment In that section:
ave are inclined to think that John &.
Brown ought to receive the nomination.
He has served us faithfully, and with
marked ability. He has harmonized the
contending parties more than any other
man of our party could have done under
the circumstances. With an experience of
nearly two years he will be better qualified
to fill this responsible and trying position
than any one, however talented, who has
never held the Office"
From the Memphis Avalanche, April 10.
The name of Gen. Frank Cheatham is
mentioned as one which will be presented
to the nominating convention as candi-
date for Governor. We have no informa-
ton which authorizes US to say that Gen.
Cheatham has such aspirations, but his ad-
mirers have taken the liberty TO mention
his name and to suggest to him that he
ought to aspire to the executive
mansion. Gen. Quarles has been
prominently named, but since his after
dinner speech, at the banquet given by
Gov. John G. Brown, a few days ago, We
are convinced that be does not want to be
Governor. He desires Brown to be Gov,
ernor a thousand years. Col. John V.
Wright has been brought forward by Mid
die Tennessee journal as its candidate fol
Governor. Gen. W. B. Bate, 1t is
said will be urged by his many ad.
mirers to submit his name TO the con
yention. Gen. Pillow has been the theme
of several newspaper correspondents
Milton Brown is the possible candidate Of
a jackson paper; and Bedford Forrest has
been suggested for the same honors. The

Mr.. Holdeman reported a bill to en-

Walton Of woods on the public domain, re-
curing all patents for lands to be on con-

Civil Service Reform.
The Senate amendments to the Legisla-
tive, Executive and judicial Appropriation
bill were brought up in Committee of the
Whole. The debate on the amendment
appropriating $4,000 to enable the Presi-
dent to perfect and put in force such rules
regulating civil services as may from time
to time be adopted by the President, was
resumed.
Mr.. Sargent opposed the amendment and
remarked that some members would sup
port it lest defeat of it might be made use
of at the Cincinnati Convention. He took
no counsel from his enemies. He took none
from
The Traitors
Of the Cincinnati convention. The admin
istration of Gen. Grant had made itself
ilustrious by restoring peace throughout
the South and by reduction of the nation
al debt. Tee Republican party would sue
coed at the next Presidential election not
by inscribing on its banner mere words
"Civil Service Reform" but by pointing to
real civil service reform wrought by the
Administration.
Mr.. Shanks characterized civil service re-
form and the abolition of the ranking priyi-
lege as two specimens of
Regular western Humbug.
Mr.. Potter reminded Mr.. Shanks that
civil service reform had been inaugurated
by the President, and abolition of the
ranking privilege by the Postmaster Gen
eral, one of the Presidents constitutional
advisers.
The discussion was further continued by
Messrs. Holman, Wakeman, kellogg, of
Connecticut, Dunnell, Stevenson and Per-
~, Of Ohio. The two latter in favor of the
amendment.
Mr.. Builder, of Massachusetts, opposed it,
and declared the movement to have been
shrewd political trick to put the President
in position where if he did not inaugurate
it he would be attacl ;ed, and if he did it
would be failure. The thing had sprung
from the late turne1 out Secretary of the
Interior.
Mr.. Stevenson remarked that Butler at
trlbuted too muc'n honor to the late Secre-
tary.
T}uttler-It came from there and will
eTId there. It began in Cincinnati and
will end in Cincinnati.
Discussion having closed an amendment
offered by Mr.. Sargent to reduce the appro-
priation to 1000 was adopted, 90 to SO.
The next important amendment on the
bin was that for the extension Of the Capt.
tol grounds north and south, the estimate
of cost being about 100000. Reduced to
100000.
Senate amendment increasing salaries Of
secretaries and judges was rejected.
The committee then rose, and, the votes
in the House on the various amendments
went over till tomorrow.
Mr.. Banks presented report in the case
