vice of The enemy to have our ticket
scratched whenever and wherever they can
Vote the straight ticket from top to bottom.
Emerson Elheridge supports Fassell, but
says he likes Bates platform on the State
debt better than the boilers platform. The
temperance views of RUSSELL, however, cap
ture the political crank.-Jaekson Tribune and
Sun.
The Hon. John R. Beasley, the Greenback
candidate for governor of Tennessee, made a
speech at McMinnville last week. The Hon.
john II. Savage tore him all to pieces for
being nothing more than an elector for
Hawkins.
Colonel John NJ. Taylor, the nominee for
Congress in the Ninth district, is only forty
four years old, and though he limps little
the effects Of war-he is III good health
and full of vigor, and will make thorough
canvass Of this district.

queutly and pathetically that that sum was
enough for the people of Tennessee 10 pay.
The president is nov mad because we have
fallen one cent.
Is it not suspicious, TO say the least, that
Republican, organs, not only in the State,
but outside, with one accord speak kindly of
the POSSIBILITIES? On the other hand the
RUSSELL organs speak kindly OF their Repub-
lican friends. They are truly very recipro-

himself as the Republican party, and had

i've or len votes.

agility Of Euquirsr.
