we will support General Malone II noml-

yentione We have already answered this
euestion two or three times affirmativclv,
and again say, Yes. Will the Post find
any other excuse for delaying its answers to
our three questions?-NorJot Ledger.
The nominee will be one OF the four fol-
lowing gentlemen: Fitz. Lee, Malone.
Daniel, and Holiday. We believe that the
contes. will be between Malone and Holil-
dav. We are of the opinion that neither
General Lee or Daniel has the slightest
show, and we think that we could give sub
stantial reasons for. our faith in this matter.
We have not changed in the slightest
degree in our choice,
We still 60 for Colonel Holiday, first. last,
and all the time.
We 20 for him because we believe that
he is vastly superior to any other gentleman
mentioned in connection with this nomna-
ton. and therefore deserving it at the hands
Of the people of the State.-Loudo,tn Enter

express decided preference for Hon. John
