officer in command of an infantry

fact. At the battle $4,000 muskeis

ENI
1t has already been announced |
through the columns of the appeal |
that the Hon. j. A. Manson, of
Hardeman county, is an aspirant for
the position Of Superintendent of the
Public Schools of Tennessee. The
law requires a nomination by the
Governor and a confirmation by the
Senate. If the Governor elect were

better qualified for the position than
Mr.. Manson. He is a ripe scholar
and a thorough teacher, and has a
large experience, as he has gwen his
active life ana matured powers to
the duties of a:practical instructor.
He has broad and vigorous intel
lect, and as Superintendent would
manage the public schools on strict
business principles. In West Tenn
essee the universal feeling is that
theshighest service which ITALIA
poosa" Taylor can render the State
is to send to the senate for con-
frmation the name of J. a. Manson
as Superintendent of the public
schools. The new Governor will
need no testimony as to his integrity,

The Boston Herald offers the Dem

upon the question Of how to gain the
the Senate. 1t calls attention to the
fact that the states which gave it TIT

Jersey, Indiana and Connecticut
i That in New York and Connetiou
it never elects a senator, and tina

THE ALDERMANIC CONTEST.
Pritchard Asks an Injunction Ripley Thinks
He Played a Practical Joke.

Alderman-elect Pritchard yesterday applied
for a restraining order, pending suit for injunc-
ton against City Clerk Shields, to prevent him
from issuing a certificate to his opponent in the
last election. W. l. Ripley. During the day the
statement that the latter had received certif-
cate of election became less startling, upon the
authority of those charged with the scheme Of
putting Ripley into the Board of Aldermen over
the certificate Of the board of canvassers given
to PIitchard. City Clerk Shields denied that he
had issued any certificate to Ripley. ST have
not seen him for week, and have not seen
Mr.. Beck for two weeks" said he. "Be-
sides, do not see how I could do so,
as there is no legal ground upon which could
sign paper of that kind" Mr.. Ripley, when
question as to his reported assertions that he
had certificate, replied There is not word
of truth in the rumors. Iprocured copy of the
certified return of the recounting commission from
the county clerk; that is all City Clerk Shields
cant issue certificate to me. My title to the
Office rests solely on the recounting commission.
which must be tested in the courts. If the
judge orders that / am entitled to the GER
tifcate it will be given me by the
county. not the city clerk. To be
plain about the matter, all these rumors as to
Shields giving me certificate were set afoat as
mammoth joke on Pritchard. 1t seems he took
the affair very seriously"
Mr.. Pritchards application for restraining
order was granted by Judge Walker. 1t was
made returnable on Monday.

The first day Of 1886 was observed in Indian

was. perhaps not so generally observed as usual,
many doors were open, and at many more homes
the families were Eat home TO their friends in
quiet and entirely informal way. The day was
marked by general suspension of all branches
of business, and the saloons did a aourishing
trade. There was bat one lonesome arrest by
the police, and that of too-hilarious individual
who was unusually boisterous in his greeting of
the New Year. No national holiday can pass, of
course. without the burning of quantity of
fire-crackers and the discharge of innumerable
toy pistols, and yesterday failed to see depart
