Democratic Election Frauds i'm Fayette
County.

From sworn affidavits received by the
Governor from various parts of the State,
and more especially Fayette County, the
last election was not unattended with fraud
and corruption, and there is likely to be
several contest cases before the Senate and
House of Representatives.
Affidavits from Sheriff Robert E. Stegar
and James A. Glover a clerk of the election
at Ashland, the eighth civil district of
Fayette County, discloses the fact that Sher-
rod, Democratic candidate for State senator,
received 1875 votes, and that Dr. Lewis Re
publican, received 23S. The returns were
sealed and given to Glover for deliverance
to the sheriff at Summeryille He
states that he stopped over the night at
his home, intending to deliver the re-
turns on the following day, but some time
during the night five men came to his home
and demanded the returns. He fearing
bodily harm, gave them up. Since that
time they have not been heard Of The
sheriff testifes that in his official report to
the Secretary of State, the eighth district
vote was not included, as he had not been
able to get hold of the returns since they
were forced from the messenger Afidavits
show further that at Elby. tho Ninth civil
district of the same county, during the day
over $50 Republican votes were cast, but
while the judges were at dinner the box was
changed in some way, and when the vote
was counted out there were only 81 Repub-
| hean votes.
| From other sources a reporter of the
Banner was informed that threats of vic.
lence have been made AGAINST certain mer
who talk of contesting the elections.

of the coal region, but on one side
of If, though with sufficient sup
ply to make It a strong competitor
for the highest supremacy. It will
undoubte dly, with its many other
advantages, become one of the first
cities of the South. It is now grow
ing more rapidly, perhaps, than
any other city in this vast region.
But bear in mind that we are now
discussing which shall become the
chief manufacturing, and especially
the chief iron manufacturing city.
Atlanta also is a rapidly growing
city; but while it is great cotton
and distributing point, and there
fore will continue to flourish with
wonderful speed, it lies outside the
iron and coal region, and cannot
successfully compete for supremacy
in the manufacture of iron.
Birmingham will doubtless con.
tinue to flourish, and perhaps will
attain to considerable proportions
as an iron centre; yet it strikes US
that it lies too near the outer edge
of the iron and coal region to be-
come the centre of the iron bust
ness.
If we are correct in our views,
the contest for the supremacy lies
between Chattanooga and Knox
vile. Chattanooga has at present
two advantages over Knoxville.
One is the start she already has in
the iron business. The other
is in her railroads and
freights. Perhaps we should add
a third, the enterprise and liberality
of her citizens. They take hold of
every enterprise which is calculated
to build up their young city, with
energy, liberality and unanimity
worthy of all praise, and which are
largely wanting in Knoxville.
But these advantages, though
great, are not insuparable. The first
can be overcome yet by an ener-
getic effort on the part of our peo-
pie. The second, by building the
Emory Gap Railroad, and by the
completion of the Augusta road.
and by liberal policy on the part
of our present roads. The third by
convincing our citizens that some
thing must be done, and done soon,
in order to secure the future ascen-
dency and prosperity for Knoxville
In future article or articles, we
shall recur to this subject again.

THE MANUFACTURING EMPORIUM
OF THE SOUTH-WHAT PLACE
SHALL 1T BE

What place in the South shall
become the chief manufacturing
centre? Any one, well acquainted
with the mineral resources of the
South, must see that in the near fu-
ture d great manufacturing city,
of one or two hundred
thousand inhabitants, must
spriDg up somewhere in Ten
n9ssee or Alabama. This region,
extending from Virginia, (and in
Guiding a part OF that StateO to
Middle Alabama, embracing South
ern Kentucky, Western North Car
DINA, Northern Georgia, all of East
Tennessee, and large part, If not
all of East Tennessee, is the centre
of the great iron, coal, zinc and cop
per fields of the South. Within this
region, pig iron can be manufac
tur,d at five dollars per ton less
than at any other place in the
United States. This fact has been
demonstrated by experience. And
this is the reason why this region is
attracting so much attention from
iron men of the North and Eng
land.
There are four points which are
competing for the supremacy as the
chief manufacturing city, namely:
Nashville, Birmingham, Chatta-
nooga and Knoxville. One of these,
in our opinion, will surely become
the iron centre of the South. Which
shall it be-? 1t will perhaps be set
tied and determined largely by the
enterprise and capital of the citizens
living in those places. II capital
were the only element in the deter
mination of the question, Nashville
would certainly win the prize; fog
it has both capital and enterprise
But Nashville lies, not in the centre

These manufactures ruined, our
cities would soon be deserted,
everybody would be forced to farm,
farmers would have no markets,

ConnOttOn Valley.
"VERUS.'' -

The Boston Transcript has the follow
ing in regard to the proposed plan for
recognizing the COnnOttOn Valley
Railway:
1t assesses the bonds, ties them up,
and leaves the stock free and in control
of the company. 1t proposes an assess
ment of % per cent. upon the Straits
Vile bonds, equaling $537,50O, and of
but 1212 per cent, or $325,OO0 upon the
larger amount or COnnOttOn bonds; and
what seems the greater injustice, the
plan gives the more lightly assessed
COnnOttOn bonds two concessions not
accorded the Straitsville bonds, to wit
an increase in their interest rate in
three years to per cent, and gratui-
tOus preferred stock dividend of 80 pei
cent. Now, il would appear that the
Straitsville bOndhOldeTs were in the
stronger position, for their company has
the less property and more money. Tht
| COnnOttOn Valley needs, as the Organi
zatiOn circular states, $544,5OO Tht
| Straitsville Company needs Qess 5000,
| 900 cash in the treasury $435, 25O. Ii
! addition, and never before, we believe
publicly stated, the COnnOtton Vale,
road owes the Straitsville road abOu
100000, as the proceeds to about thi
amount received from Straitsville bOnd
sold went to the building of the Con
notion Valley road.

A huge April fool joke was perpe
trated last Saturday by six young
business men, which reacted upon them
with a surprising effect. The parties
were Messrs. A. H. HerbTuck, j. B. Rose,
John Schilling, jr., Norman H. Chance,
Ed Clark and Sam LOwenstein. The
Joke consisted in soliciting subscrip-
tions to fund which the parties were
collecting in Roses jewelry store for the
aid of a destitute family bearing the
mythical name of Craigham. Quite a
number of quarter and half-dOllars
were contributed to the worthy cause,
and after each subscription the jOkers
would mildly suggest to the subscriber
that it was the first of April, and ask
him to join in spending his cOntribu-
tiOn. Among the bitten number was
Charles Frazer, a newspaper reporter,
who turned the tables by having the
sextet arrested for obtaining money
under false pretenses. They were all
taken before Mayor PierO, who informed
them that their offense was peniten-
tiary one, and placed them all under
bond. After the scared six had rushed
about town all afternoon and managed
to secure bOndsmen, the charge against
! them was withdrawn in the even'g, anC
their victims are enjoying a huge laugl
at their expense.
