sThe announcement Of Hon. Henry
Patton, of Claiborne county, as a
candidate to represent the Second
Senatorial District of Tennessee,
comprising the counties of Sullivan,
Hawkins, Hamblen, Hancock and
Claiborne, is published elsewhere in
to.day's paper. Mr.. Patton repre-
scented Claiborne and Hancock coun-
ties in the lower house of the legis-
lature of 1875, and no man in it
made a fairer record of his devotion
to the interests of his country and
his constituents than he. He is a
gentleman of uuimpeachable moral
character, worthy and well qualified,
and will reflect credit upon his con-
stituents and honor upon himself.
His bold and fearless advocacy Of
Democratic principles, his stern and
unhinching integrity, his upright and
consistent course of conduct in his
intercourse with all men, have won
for him a popularity that will insure
his acceptability as the candidate of
the Democratic party without the
formality of n nomination by con-
vention. His election is a certainty.

TIE GREAT SCOURGE

The ravages of the fever have con-
tinued frightfully terrible during the
past week in most of the towns in
fected. In various towns in Louis
lana. but particularly in New Or
leans. it has steadily increased, and
its fatality has been fearful. The
number of new cases up to latest
dates were reported at two hundred
a day. The restitution has been
great and the suffering intense. In
Vicksburg, Holly Springs and Gren-
ada it has ragged and still RACES with
great fatality. But Memphis of all
the infected cities has been the chief
sufferer. The deaths up to the 18th
had been $3.50. and 1000 then sick
The average of deaths 60 per cent.
of sick. The city is a hospital. TO-
900 sick and destitute persons were
being fed and cared for in the city
and camps. Fifteen volunteer ply
sicIans have died. and twenty others
are sick. Thirteen Catholic and
Protestant ministers have died. One
thousand collins were ordered at one
time. Sickness, restitution and death
reign throughout the beautiful and
once rich and happy city. On the
21st there were "a deaths. The
morning was clear and cold. and a
more hopeful feeling prevailed. At
Brownsville, Tenn, there were 81
new cases and IL deaths on the 10Th.
At Chattanooga there seems To be
no doubt of the presence Of the dis
ease in a mild form. A committee
of physicians from the Atlanta Med
cal Society. of experience in the ma.
ture and treatment of the disease.
visited Chattanooga last week for
the purpose of investigating the ma
ture Of the fever there. They say
in their published report that up to
the 10th there had been at least five
deaths from yellow fever. two import
ed and three residents. They do not
a very widespread cpl
demic as the lateness of the season
aud the efforts being made by the
and citizens afford good
ground to hope that the scourge will
not be Inflicted on Chattanooga.
The Illness mortuary report shows
sixteen deaths from all causes for
the week ending 9 o'clock Saturday
night, of which five are attributed to
yellow fever.

PERSONAL.

Mai. John Murphey and family re-
turned home from johnson county last
week, where they have been pleasantly
passing time during the warm weather.
Mckinney Barton, Esq, of Chatham
oOga, reached his fathers residence near
this place, last Friday, and has been
Frustrated by an attack of bilious fever.
At last accounts he was improving.
We were mistaken in our paragraph
last week about the number of guests at
Tate Spring. 1t should have been 80
instead of 40, and we learn that there
are upwards of q hundred now.
Mr. Robt. Bibhs and sister, Miss
Gussie Bibbs, who have been visiting
the family of Col John Pryde, their
relatives, near Morri stown, for several
weeks past, left last Thursday for their
home in Bristol.
Maj. J. NJ Dickinson and family came
up last week from Chattanooga to re-
main until the abatement of the yellow
fever at that place. Also Mrs. White
sides and family, of the same place,
relatives of our fellow townsman, Foster
Whitesides, Esq, are in the city.
We had the pleasure of a call on Mon
day from our friend and popular contri-
butor, w. H. ['tBric-a-Bac"] Patterson,
Esq, of Cumberland Gap. He was dis
guised in a clean shirt and paper col
lar, and but for the same old shoes and
yarn stockings would have escaped re-
cegnition and detection. And still he is
happyl We hope to hear from him soon.
Hon. A S. Marks, Democratic candi-
date for Governor, was a passenger on
Sundays evening mail train, en- route
for Bristol where he commenced fill
ing his list of appointments for East
Tennessee last Monday. At Chattan-
ooga, as we learn from the Times, the
friends of DR.. Wight met Judge Marks
and informed him that it would be i'm
possible for the Doctor to fulfill the APP
pointments for joint debate, owing to
the prevalence of yellow fever in that
city, and the Doctors duties as physi-
clan requiring his presence there. He
would, however, join Judge Marks at
the very earliest opportunity. Judge
Marks expressed his regrets that the
Doctor was thus prevented from max
ing an active canvass, and said that
he would tell the people himself what
kept the Doctor away, and that in his
speeches he would say nothing whatever
derogatory of Doctor Wight, either per
sonally or politically.

The Border Fair at Bristol-on- the line
last week had not the creditable display
in any of itsdepartments we had expect
ed. A few good cattle and some supe-
rior stock were exhibited. The track
display was only $3.50. The ladies' de-
partment was represented by the small
est variety of articles. The agricultur-
al department was total failure, owing,
as Buck Horton informed US, to the fact
that Tom Gains Jersey bull (Which was
on exhibition there, ESCAPED from its stall
the second night and eat up the sol
itary cabbage head and two sweet pota-
toes entered in that department The
base ball contest and the parade of the
Ragamuffins were the great attractions
and drew more than two thousand per-
sons inside the Fair grounds the last day.
The Fair, we are told, was financial
success.

Rather extensive preparations are ma
king for stock exhibition at Knoxville
on the 9Th of October, the time of the
meeting of the Farmers Convention in
that city. Several liberal special prem
iums have already been offered. An ex-
tensive and interesting programme Of
exercises for the convention is publish
ed in city papers. The East Ten
nessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad
Company will furnish excursion tick
to attend the convention. The meeting
is one that will, no doubt, prove interz
esfing and printable, and a good attends
ance of the farmers Is expected.

THAT GREENBAoK CLUB.

Shall it be organized? By all
means. say we. But we say at the
same time that every thinking Dem
ocrat in Tennessee will keep his
name off the list and out Of the club.
And why? Because the whole thing
is simply an effort by Republicans
and disappointed politicians to steal
the livery of Democracy to serve
their own private and personal ends
in. The doctrines of the so-called
greenbackers had their origin years
ago in the ranks of the Democratic
party South and West. The advo.
cacy of these doctrines elected Old
Blue Jeans Williams Governor of
Indiana. The same doctrines sent
Dan Voorhees, to the United States
Senate, and were loudly proclaimed
by him in the Senate chamber long
before there was a Greenback party
thought of. These doctrines were
foFcibly promulgated all over East
Tennessee in the canvass of 1874.
The Democratic House Of Repre-
sentatives at Washington acted up
on the doctrines taught by the green
hackers in remonetizing silver, in
stopping the cancellation and de-
struction of greenbacks and in re-
pressing the resumption act. In
short, but for the Republican u. 5.
Senate the doctrines of tho Green
back party would have been ere now,
by Democratic legislation, enacted
into the laws Of the land. Take tue
platform of the Democratic party of
Tennessee. 1t is but the embodi-
ment and reiteration of the teach
ings which have been given forth by
the Democrats Of the South and
West for years. And yet no green
hacker asks for more than is there
set forth as the principles of the
party in Tennessee.
Are you in favor of the doctrines
Of the Greenback party So are
we, so we have been for years; be-
cause they are the doctrines of the
Democratic party, But we are not
ia favor Of disorganizing that party.
in order to give the Republican par
ty under another name, control of
our State and national affairs. The
Democratic party of the South and
West is the true-the original Green
back party Of the nation-and if our
Republican friends have come to
see that we are right and they are
wrong, why let them just step over
into our ranks. 1t will do them good
to get right for once in their lives.
Or if this is too hard on them, let
them form their Greenback clubs
auxiliary to the Democratic party
all over the South and West. We
will welcome them even in this dis
guise. But we repeat while it is
sharp trick Of thieves to work their
way into place and power, it is too
thin. 1t will catch only the thought
less Democrat. And as in the days
of know-nothingism even this class
will soon return to the old old party,
heartily ashamed of the folly that
led them astray.
The Morristown gazette. [volume] (Morristown, Tenn.) 1867-1920, 1878-09-25


The canvass for Congress between
Taylor and Pettibone was opened at
Bristol last Friday. Maj. Pettibone
opened The discussion in a speech
Of an hour and half. 1t was de-
voted principally to the finance ques-
ton, and the most notable feature
was the ignoring Of the State and
National platform of his party and
planting himself on the platform
adopted by Kansas Convention.
We do Mr.. Pettibone no injustice
when we say it was not equal to the
man or the expectations of his parti-
san friends. He did not wave the
bloody flag extravagantly, but rather
appealed for applause by an elo-
quent peroration to the memory of
.'the bows in blue and the boys in
gray This was Mr.. TayIor's first
attempt to make public political
speech. He was known to his asso-
ciates as possessing talent and elo-
quence OF a high order. but even his
intimate friends feared his first COM
bat with the eloquent, experienced
and willy politician with whom he
was to contend. But their fears were
soon abated. Bob's maiden effort
proved the wisdom Of the Jouesbor-
ough conventions selection. and sat
isfed the most doubling Thomas Of
his party that he was the right man
in the right place. His able and
earnest handling of the greenback
question and his pointed and witty
illusions to the Revenue Ring won
the sympathy Of the hearer and de-
monstrated his capacity to meet his
opponent at every point successful
". Mr.. Pettibone has found at last
a foeme1 worthy of his steel. We
heard nothing but expressions Of the
most unqualified exultation at the
manberiin. which our candidate ac-
Quilted himself on the occasion. Let
the people OF the district, at every |
point the candidates speak, go and
hear rthem,F and We have no fears Of
the defeat of Bob Taylor.
