THE KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE
And Weekly Wing and Chronicle
for 1890.

/ .-,... for 1880.
During the coming Presidential
year, the DAILY CHRONICLES will
take an active part in the vigorous
discussions Of all political issues
involved, and will, a. the same
time, keep its readers fully posted
on all the important events of the
day. 1t will do whatever is honest
and legitimate to promote the sue
cess of the Republican ticket,
placing fidelity to the inter ests of
that party above any personal aims
or privata ambition. To this end
it will favor the selection of good
men with clear records, per-
sonal and political, for standard
bearers in the coming canvass, and
when such are selected, it will do
everything reasonable to secure
their success. ..4 .f. N. .
In State politics, the CHRONICLE
will support no man for any Office,
from Governor down to constable,
who is not in favor of paying the
State debt upon terms satisfactory
to the creditors Of the State. It
will oppose the efforts Of repudia-
tionists to drag the entire State
down to their low and degraded
standard, first, last and all the time,
and even though the repudiationists
should be successful, it will continue
to denounce them and their infs-
nous schemes. DEW.
The WING AND CHRONICLE will
be published weekly, as before, and
will be made DIP from the issues of
the DAILY CHRONICLE. 1t will con-
tain a choice selection Of miscella-
neous matter each week, together
with editor rails, telegraph and local
matter. Especial attention will be
given its columns, and everything
that could be Objectionable in the
family circle will be carefully ex-
Guided. 1t will be the object of the
publishers to make it welcome
visitor into the families Of tho
country.
Its market reports will be carefully
revised every Tuesday and made as
nearly perfect and reliable al pos
sible.
The Agricultural columns of the
WIG AND CHRONICLE shall receive
close attention, and will be i'm
proved all the time. In this depart
ment, the views of practical farmers
on topics of interest will be invited.
The proprietors of these two old
and we'll established journals will
spare no pains to keep up and add
to their established reputation, and
are confident that they will make
them worth many times more than
the subscription price charged.

HONEST JOHN SHERMAN.
A Few Of the Charges that Republican
Paper Makes Against Him. i-.
New York Times. ]

Mr. Howard Carroll. who has been holding
q sun alass over John sherman makes tho
following charges ag slnst him:
!. That Mr.. w. J. Fitzpatrick. u confidential
agent of the Secretary Of the Treasury, with
personal letters ofintroiucton from him, has
recently been travelling through North Caro-
lima, with no other purpose than to give en-
Couragement to Mr. Sherman's canvass for
the Presidency, and that he told Col. T. b.
Keogh, the secretary OF the National Re
publican COMMITTEES, and then chairman Of
the North Carolina Republican Committee,
that II hb would throw his influence In aid Of
tho Secretary he could have good office,
even though he performed no service for his
pay.
O. That at an interview OF his own making
Secretary Sherman. though being assured
that the sentiment OF North Carolina Rapub-
llcans was solid for Grant, asked COL Ksogh
to try md divide the delegation In his In
terest. intimatlDg at the same time that Dol.
keORh's friend, Mr.. Powers, would be pro-
vided for Mt the government expense.
8. That Mr.. Cannady aud other treasury
of1icera, who are paid by the people TO do eer-
tain responsible work In North Carolina,
were ready In Washington to hold consuItar
tions respecting Secretary Sherman'B preSi-
dential canvass, and that when they could no
longer be used In that direction the Hecr0-
tary wisely concluded that they had better
ego home."
The result OF these manlpuIations on the
part Of the Secretary are already well known.
Against the sentiment Of nearly every He
| from North Carolina to the National Repub-
| Ilcan Convention have, by the Vaccinations
o. treasury officers, been pledged to Mr.
