The Reason For it.

The New York World says that many
a dealer who places $40 advertisement
in his village paper begrudges his In
vestmeut when it is worth double to
him what he pays for it. Advertising
rates in the city newspapers would as
tonish such business men. One col
umn in the Chicago Tribune costs the
advertiser $4,000 per annum. The
New York Herald receives for its low
est price $39563, and for its highest
price $63,S90. The New York Tribune
for the lowest $29,954, and for the
highest $50 ,64S, and these papers, it is
stated, never lack for advertisement to
fill their columns. And still there are
lots of people who wonder why a coun,
try newspaper can not be furnished tc
subscribers at as low a price as the
great dailies are sold for.

the true Democratic position as to the
right and the duty of the members to

This is not making overtures to the
enemies of Democracy, and no one
can object to a conference which

ton OF men whose fidelity has been
tested and whose services entitle them
to recognition as leaders in whom the
people OF Tennessee have implicit con-
fdence.
Gen. Quarles, recognizing the right
of the people to give instructions, speaks
out in unequivocal language and
pledges himself to obey the will Of the
people OF this district by supporting fol
the United States Senate, our distin-
guished townsmau. He dismisses as
an idle fabrication the suggestion made
some time ago that he might himself be
a candidate for the United States Sen

ership of the State Senate are such as
will meet the unqualified approval o.
