TO lhe CInnens 81 Memnhis.

At the earnest and repeated solici.
tation Of my friends, and in response
to a call numerously signed by citi-
zens of Memphis, | consented to be-
come a candidate for re election to
the position Of Fire and Police Com
missioner OF the Taxing District Of
Shelby county.
1t may not be improper to say that
when the organization Of the present
government was adopted in 1873, |
Yves solicited to allow my name to be
presented for the position now sought
and declined to do so, but was sub
%sequently appointed by Governor
Marks on the Board Of Supervisors Of
Public Works, and served in that ca.
pacity until the death of Major w. w.
Guy, in the summer of 1879.
Without solicitation on my part. |
was selected by the County Court and
commissioned by the Governor to fll
the unexpired term Of Major Guy. and
for several months during the illness
OF President 0yorton, acted as chief
officer Of the Taxing District. MY
record as a public servant and citizen
is well known, and will enable you to
determine my fitness and capacity for
the position named. l had deter
mined to retire from the office at the
expiration Of the present term, and
devote my whole time TO the duties
dev0lviug upon me as an officer of
the Mississippi & Tennessee Rail-
road Company, but yielding to the
wishes of my friends | am a candidate
for the position named, and determined,
if elected, faithfully ands earnestly to
do my whole duty and use my best
efforts to advance the interests Of the
city. / am especially singled out by
the opposition for attack on account of
my connection with the Mississippi &
Tennessee Railroad Company, which
has as much interest in the future of
your city as any one can possibly have;
indeed, its very life depends upon her
prosperity and advancement, and | can
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES that | would atonce
decline could | for a moment suppose
that the interests of the one could in
duce me to neglect that of the other.
The duties Of the respective positions
do not and cannot in any manner con-
tlict, and all opposition on that score
is entirely g~roundless.
l am not backed by any corpotion as
has been insinuated aud used against
me.
If my record with my associates in
the Taxing District government meets
your approval, | would be glad to have
you express it at the coming election.
Shortness Of time prevents a personal
canvass. | will be satisfied with your
verdict. Respectfully yours,
M BURKE.

BATTLE WITH A e a
Laying Out a Four Hundred
Founder with a Club.

Several days ago a healthy old black
bear was captured alive over in the
swamps on the edge Of Crowley's
ridge, forty miles to the west of this
city. The animal had been depredat-
ing upon the calves and pigs in the
vicinity, and fears were entertained
that be might capture a fat little darby
or two. The inhabitants decided on
putting a stop to such ~foraging, The
animal was trapped, put in a
strong cage and shipped to this city.
MIR. V, Fuchs, the game merchant on
Jefferson street buying him for a ten
dollar note. Thinking he had been
raised apet, the purchaser on getting
him into his store opened Bruins cage
and let him have a romp. The ami
NAL walked out with an apparent feel
ing of surprise, smelled about a little
and seemed disposed to take things
quiet, until one man undertook to
chain him. AS soon as he did that
tho bear growled, threw out his front
paw and slapped his master in the
face. The surprise was changed as
the man hit went SPRAYING out to a
corner ten feet away. He rose and
returned to the combat smiling, think
ing it all in fun. Bruin took it
seriously, however, and showed more
fight. The man approached boldly
and put a chain around the animals
neck just in time to get himself upset
again, %traversing az least fifteen feet
in the second tumble before he
paused. The next approach
was made shyly, under the
belief that the bear was merely a
little cross for the moment. He was
finally driven into the back yard and
chained to the door post.
A hogshead with loose straw being
rolled out for the animals sleeping
quarters in cold nights, the roller was
unexpectedly attacked with
moro ferocity than before.
Then he got mad, and arming
himself with a big club, commenced
an effort to drub the bear into re-.
spectful dOcility. The animal roared,
fought and paved at a very lively
rate. lie was finally laid low with a
heavy stroke over tae eye, the blow
lracturing his skull. A knife to cut
his throat was the next operation.
Then the hide was removed and the
flesh of the fat rascal was prepared for
steaks and roasts. The bear was as
wild as when first caught at his sheep
killing tricks, but V. D. Fuchs didn't
know it until be had dubbed him TO
death. If he had lie wouldn't have
been so brave.

that it was ginned on our gin aud the
Crowson Combined feeder and cleaner,
Is bales of which brought 1870; IL
bales, 13c; 2 bales l4fe, and l bale l5c

Will the Eagle Gin Company pro-
duce an account Of sales showing as
high prices from cotton ginned on their
gin during this season?
With this statement of facts We will
leave it to an intelligent public to draw
their own conclusions.
We claim that our outfit as exhib-
tied at Atlanta was superior TO that of
the Eagle Cotton Gin Company, and
as an evidence of our sincerity in this
belief, we shall be glad TO have a con-
test between their gin and ours-fed
by hand-and with the same brands Of
attachments as exhibited at Atlanta,
and will put up $1,000, with the privi-
lego Of $4,000, with the Cotton Elk
change of Memphis, the same to be
covered by the Eagle Gin Company,

In this contest ginning cotton from
the cleanest to the very toughest and
hulliest cotton grown and picked or
gathered in the river bottoms. The
rules 10 govern this trial to be: First,
sample; second, turn out; third, time;
fourth, condition of seed for planting
or for market. There to DO ginned
not less than one bale Of lint cotton
in each test. each gin to have the
same diameter and face OF pulley,
same width and kind Of belt, and to
be run at the same speed.
We have correspondence from own.
ers Of the Eagle Gins, stating that they
arc troubled in very hully cotton with
the slowness of their gin, and asking
if we can and will change their gin to
our double roller and put on our cot
ton seed and hull separator attach
ment.
We have a customer who is also a
customer of the Eagle Company, hav-
ing bought both gins, who wishes to
bet ten bales Of cotton in the above
contest, that the Milburn Eclipse
huller is the best gin. Yours truly,
