We acknowledge the claims OF Wilmington to

We are opposed to granting those claims under
the existing condition of affairs. We much pre-
fer disfrUlchisen,ent, as the Wilmington papers
term our present position, to dictation at her

heartily tired Of, and will never cease to oppose
an increase OF the burden.
How, then, shall our representation be aug
mented? Simply by dividing this county, ard
constituting Wilmington city county to her
self, and would tho people Of that city Join their
petitions to those Of the people OF the rest OF
the county, and aid in obtaining q division, the
much coveted increase OF representation could

II no longer requires an argument TO
show farmers why they should be organic
ed. The farmer reaps the same benefit by
organizing and consulting with his neigh
Dor who pursues the same vocation, as any
other class of men. The agricultural in
terests of our country are constantly look
ing up, and it is the result of organization.
We trust that East Tennessee farmers will
appreciate this by meeting together in the
convention to be held here in May. Let
there be a general attendance and let every
one come prepared to offer something for
the consideration of the convention.

SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION

The GAINESVILLE Tobacco Leaf under
stands That there is host of "hungry
office seekers, thronging the office of Gov.
Brown, asking and earnestly pleading for
the office of Superintendent of Public In
struction." It is to be hoped that the
Governor will make a good selection for
this most important position. The success
of the free school system as provided
for by the law just passed
will largely depend upon the charac-
ter of the Superintendent. He should be
a man of energy, learning, integrity and
of patriotic intentions. To his care, more
than any 9TH one man in the State, will
be committed the future destinies of our
youth. He should he endowed with tai
ent for organization. If the schools are
properly organized and conducted, they
will become a fixture, as much so
as our everlasting hills. If we
should fail in the organization of
of free schools, they would not come up to
public expectation, and soon we would
hear croakers utter their 81 told you sou
trying to poison the public mind and bring
about an abolition of the system
1t is by far the most important appoint
ment the Governor has ever been called
upon to make. We trust he feels all the
responsibility he should feel on this ques-
ton, and that he will give us a Superin-
tendent in whose ability all the people
have confidence and who will do credit to
himself and the State, in organizing the
free school system in Tennessee 81 - = 81
