The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1874-09-10
Thfrty-four Years Old.

The following extracts taken from the
| Pulaski Republican, a newspaper pub
lished by Vim. II. Field, of date the 18th
of December, 1910, may be of interest
to some of our old residents. The paper
! is just half the size of the CITIZEN, and
is almost entirely made up of reading
matter. At the date at which it was
published business men had not learned
the value of printers ink, and hence the
paper is without any advertisements save
those of a legal nature and other an
nOuncements
VIM. II. Field offers his services to
suffers in court; DIR. keenan, offers his
professional services; DIR. NJ. Deaven-
port offers his professional services; r.

er on Bradshaw in this county, adjoin-
ing Levi Sheriff., Gabriel Morley and

MARRIED.-On Tuesday evening the
18th inst, by Rev. John Campbell, Mr..
JAS. MITCHELL to Miss MARTHA JANE,
daughter of Rev. c. p. Reed, all of this
county.
The above and the following consti-
tute the only local items in the paper:
Jacob Shall, Esqr., Postmaster of Pu-
laski, supported Gen. Harrison for Pres
ident, and upon the defeat of Mr.. Van
Buren,, through the influence of "our
able Representative in Congress, A. V.
Brown" Mr.. Shall was removed from
office and Mr.. Samuel Mccormack ap-
pointed in his stead. The Republican
supports Mr.. Brown in the removal OF
Mr.. Shall and attempts to justify the
deed, but copies an article from the
Wing Courier, another paper published
in Pulaski, severely censuring the Van
Buren, party, and Mr.. Brown in partic-
ular, for the "proscriptive policy exer-
cised without the least shadow of justi-
tication." 1t also contains a protest,
signed by about one hundred citizens,
solmenly condemning ''this procedure
as having originated in the personal
pique of Mr.. Brown" and regarding il
as ''barefaced prescription for Opin-
ions sake unparalleled" This protest
is signed by r. H. Rose, N. S. Brown,J
w. Goode, L. NJ. Ezell, d. Rodes, r. G
p. White, J. c. Carter, David Neil, E.

The policy which is so critically CEN
sured above has become in latter days s
matter of course, and some of the mel
who signed the above protest are every
day witnesses to party tricks and admin,
istration subterfuges, which, had they
occurred at that day, would have raised
storms of censure and rebuke, but which
are now passed unheeded even by the
opponents of the party exercising them
There is nothing in this paper to in
dictate the condition of Pulaski as s
town, and nothing to show what lOca
topics exercised the people. The peo-
pie were very communicative, judging
from long list of letters remaining il
the post office. The whole aspect of the
paper and the sentiments and condition
of the people as reflected in the topic!
discussed all go to show that radica
change has come over everything anC
that Pulaski has not remaining a vestig'
of those antiquated peculiaTities char
acteristic of that age.
