THE IRON OITY ,TlLDEN CLUB
RATIFYING HANCOCK'S
NOMINATION,

P1TrsBuRGH, June S0.--The Iron City
Tilden Club, which was formed two
years ago, and was the first organization
formed in the interest of the renomina-
tion of Samuel j. Tilden, met tonight,
nearly every member being present, and
ratified the nomination OF Hancock and
English, and agreed to retain its name.
Speeches were made by DR., George H..
Keyser and j.. w. Cracrott, and letter
was read from John b. Larkin, a return
ed delegate, who was too III to attend,
Mr.. Cracroft said that the Tilden Club
was the first to respond to the nomrna.
ton of Hancock and English on the
ground at Cincinnati, and every member
Of the organization would give them his
support. Under the inspiration of that
taiismanic name they would fight in the
forefront of battle until November next.
BY the election of Gen. Hancock the
stamp of condemnation would be put on
the greatest fraud of the century, all its
aiders and abettors consigned to ever
lasting infamy, and the great wrong
riohted. iiiu5fh i-t' f't t.'| it Hlsf#

its laws, and its government This, ad-
ded to your brilliant achievements as a
soldier, will leave you without a rival in
the affections of all whose good will is
worth having, and give you place in

himself in the club, stating that
there were not men enough in Ten
nessee to keep him from voting for
Wilson, that Wright is a fraud, that
he is the grandest walking contradic-
ton, both in name and principle, that
ever stalked through Tennessee; that
he is supported by pensioned press,
without soul, heart or ears, for the
welfare of the common people.
Believe thou not a siren voice" Of
the high-tax press in regard to east
Tennessee boiling over to Wright;
this is all a lie that can be fully pro
ven at the polls on second November.
| met gentleman who travelled in
a private conveyance from Rutherford
to Bradley county, over the mountains
who says, by close inquiry, he hes
found the people along his route near
ly all for Wilson. East Tennessee
will give Wilson a large majority be-
yond a doubt.
An old gentleman, who listened TO
Snodgrass here on the 2lst, said, after
his speech, that he was wrong and
that he would vote for Wilson. This
is one Of the numerous cases.
Now is the time for rejoicing. Our
county will be saved from fraud, ty-
ranny and injustice If every man
would do his duty, let him vote for
Wilson, and the victory is ours. Let

litically, Il. Tenn.

pearance. They will now be inclined
to take higher ground, for the British
Medical Journal tells us that in a
lecture on badness, Professor FORMER
says There is nothing ridiculous
or malformed about it, and it confers
upon the physiOgomy an expression Of
wisdom, experience and venerability.
1t adopts itself marvelously to certain
heads which would be deformed by a
wig, and is the severe beauty repre-
sented in sculpture by the classic head
of Eschylus.p This is consolation
indeed. Henceforth let man bow be
fore the severely beautiful let there
be an end Of the use of unguents and
oils and let depiIatories take their
place upon the toilet table. Let the
thoughtless and giddy keep the hair on
their heads, but let all who value the
possession of the severe beauty Of
Kschylus get their heads as bald as a
billiard ball without an instant's de-
lay.

The election of two of our candi.

all sides. Wilson cannot get less than
five thousand votes in Davidson, per
haps one thousand votes more. Bets
are freely offered at one hundred to
eighty on Wilson beating Wright in
the state, and even up that he beats
him in this county. The high.taxers

Wilson will lead Wright thirty

Dear Editor-I have just returned
from the last regular meeting of the
Charleston and Calhoun Wilson clut
and will give you a few items for pub
lication. This club has been organized
for several months and has 100 mem.
bers enpolled. Tonight it became
the duty Of our committee Oh arrange
ments TO deliberate on a suitable prep
aration for receiving Hon. S. f. VII,
son next Friday, the 10Th. He viii
be, if we may judge from preparation,
anG the expressed sentiments of the
people here, most heartily, warmly
enthusiastically received. He will bt
escorted from Athens, where hi
speaks on that day, to Charleston
where he speaks the same night, by ;
committee from the two towns by {
brass band and a very large concours,
OF the citizens Of Bradley, McMinr
and Meigs counties.
This section Is in blaze over i'tht
peoples candidate" (this expression
is the adopted watchword of Wilson
men in this club). Party lines ar,
becoming Q matter Of insigni6canci
among the l6w.tax men in this dis
trict
An influential republican made
speech here tonight, stating that hi
party was a matter Of small monlen
when hls liberties we're at stake, tina
he would vote for Wilson, he woul,

Address of the Shelby county executive
committee
DEMoCRATs-We beg leave to pre-
sent a few facts to your candid con,
sideration. 1t is conceded that the
state Of Tennessee will cast its cleo
tOral vote for Hancock, and it seems
his election to the presidency
of the United States is assured
We ask you, does the duty
of democrats end herel Many
seem to think they do. A feeling Of
apathy has taken possession Of our
people from which they must arouse,
or a misfortune will oyertake us more
dire to the state of Tennessee than
would be the election Of republican
president The columns Of the De-
mocracy are unfortunately divided up
on the candidates for the position of
governor of Tennessee, but thanks to
the wisdom of the people of our coun-
ty, we are united on our legislative
ticket.
This ticket is in peril solely because
Of Indifference in our ranks. Have
the democratic masses refectedon the
evils which will follow from republi-
can success? Permit us to recount a
few. First, the defeat of Colonel
Young, our efficient representative in
congress, and the election of VIM. r.
Moore, the maligner, or of Thomas A.
Hamilton, who runs alone as the rep
resentatiye Of the color line doctrine as
his successor. Second, if the next leg
islature is republican, the election of
Maynard or some other republican as
United States senator, in place of Hon.
James Il. Bailey. The Democratic
majority in the United States senate
is now almost overcome If we lose a
member from our state its change is
assured. Third, the next legislature
will have to apportion the members ofI
congress under the late census.
If Republican, the districts will
be so gerrymandered as GER
tainly to give the republicans, for
years to come, the first district, now
represented by the gallant Bob Taylor;
the tenth, from which comes our own
gifted Young, and, perhaps, that now
represented by Hon. John NJ. Bright;
thus securing permanently to that
party three, and possibly four mem
bers Of congress. And last, but not
least should the republicans carry the
next legislature, they will settle the
debt at par and make the past
due bonds and coupons receivable
for taxes Let this be done, and the
state Is bound hand and foot, and de-
livered to the courts as a mere corpo-
ration, and its officers compellable by
mandamus to meet the obligation thus
fastened upon US. Democrats, we
appeal to you to think Of these things,
and let US turn out on November I'd,
and save our legislative and congress
sional tickes.
By order of the Executive Board.
