NEAL AND WILDER.
The Democratic Candidate for Congress
Distances his Opponent at
McMinnviile.

Hon. John r. Neal and Gen. j. T.
Wilder, the candidates for Congress,
spoke at McMinnville last Saturday.
Every seat in the courthouse was
crowded, and all the standing room
was occupied. Gen. Wilder led off
in an hours rambling discussion of
the Blair bill and the tariff-the first
question being dead issue, and the
second a measure upon which the
Republican party breaches one thing
and practices another, or rather is
guilty of a sin of commission by fail
ing to practice what it sets forth in
its platforms. He threw no light
upon either of the questions he dis
cussed, and failed to create any en-
thusiasm even among the partisans
of his own faith. Gen. Wilder's
speech was a weak defense of his par
ty, and weaker still as anattack upon
Democracy. In fact the General is a
gigantic failure, as public speaker,
and his hope of election is so delicate
ly frail that he fails to manifest any
enthusiasm whatever in the canvass.
Hon. John r. Neal, the Democratic
standard bearer, was introduced by
Mr.. Thos. S. Myers, chairman of the
County Executive Committee, and
was greetdd with hearty applause.
His speech was an agreeable surprise
to all who heard him, and he created
a most favorable impressionupon all.
He made no stale argument upon
the Blair bill, but gave that iniqui-
tOus measure few smart slaps which
showed him up in line with the ma
jority Of the Tennessee Democracy
on the issue. He showed wherein
the party had exerted its full strength
to carry out its platform declarations
for tariff reform. He held up the
hands of the administration in an
able manner, and lambasted the Re-
publican party right soundly for their
malfeasance and crookedness in Office.
Col. Neal's speech throughout was an
eloquent, forcible argument for De-
mocracy, evincing thorough knowl-
edge of all the leading political ques-
tons of the day. 1t was evident to
all who heard him that Col. Meals
term in Congress has been devoted to
an earnest, conscientious study of the
needs of the country in general and
his constituency in particular in Ma
tional Legislation. He created a
most favorable impression among our
people, and we predict for him an in
creased majority in old Warren. We
are confident that he will so effectu-
ally snow Gen. Wilder under as to
bury all hope the Republicans may
have of ever carrying the Third Dis
trict.

Couldn't Go Back On the Boys.

Nashville Union.
Col. Bob Taylor was sitting in the
Democratic eXecutive committeeman
at the Maxwell yesterday, surround
ed by a host Of admires, when one of
the gentlemen asked:
"Well, Col. Bob, how much kissing
have you done in this campaign"
"Haven't kissed but one girl in
this campaign" said the democratic
candidate, with a sly twinkle in his
eye, "Only one-it's fact. I'll tell
you how that was: Down here in
one of these counties l was met by a
host of young ladies, and one, the
belle of the crowd, came forward and
greeted me 50 warmly that all at once
and with one voice all the girls cried,
kiss her, Col. Bob! Kiss her, colo
nelr Well, and the boys all joined
in too, and-well-you know I
couldn't 90 back on the boys, and
that's the way it was" All laughed
heartily, but the colonel didn't look
like he felt sorry for it.

Athens Post: We took pains to in
form ourselves and know what we are
talking about. During his first term in
Congress John R. Neal proved him
self faithful and fully alive to the in
terest of his constituents generally,
and a failure to re-elect him would
be a reproach to the Democracy of
the District. But we have no APP
prehension of such a result except
through apathy and over-confidence
in some of the counties on this side
of the mountain. He is making a
splendid canvass, and richly deserves
big majority. Wake up, brethren,
young and old; grid on your armor,
and prepare for a solid assault all
along the line!

The Banner District.

The Warren County Democratic
Executive Committee, at its session
last Saturday, offered handsome
silk banner to the civil district of this
county, which, at the coming cleo
ton, makes the largest per cent of
increase in the Democratic vote over
that of two years ago. 1t will be a
credit to any district in the county to
possess this banner, and we hope
there will be spirited contest for it.
Every district in the county ~can
largely increaseits vote, and itshould
be done at this election. Let every
Democrat in the county go to the
polls on the second day of November
and put in a straight ballot as fol-
lows.

stating that he had had constitution ana oy'
laws printed, was received and adopted
When the motion was first made to receive
the report nothing was said about adopting
it, thing that highly displeased the Presi'
dent, who throughout the whole Congress,
conducted the proceedings in exact accord
with Cushing and Roberts. When the report
of the committee of arrangements was called
for, DR.. Stout reported that he had arranged
for the association to take dinner at the Clit-
ton House at one clock. DR.. Stouts re-
port was received and adopted with evident
satisfaction,
The livdiest discussion Of the day was
when Dr. Hard presented very careful ana
well considered report from the committee
on Fee Bills. He stated that all members OF
the committee could not be gotten together,
but some of them had agreed upon the fee
bill now in vogue among the Ottawa physi'
clans, with several exceptions, the most
notable one being that as to the charge for
advice given at the physicians office. The
city charge by the report was to be 81 and the
country fifty cents. The schedule present
ed by Dr. Hard commences with "transient
advice at office" $500, anteends with aft
ting silk stocking" $500 The other items
range from 81 90 to $50. The least expen-
hoy nprfnrm
upon him by La Sale county physician is
vaccination, which will cost him one dollar.
Il he wants to be extravagant he can have
the subclavian, carotid, lilac, or femeral ar
.eries ligated at an expense of one hundred
and fifty dollars. If he looks over the fee
bill aud fails to find any operation that suits
him, he can 90 outside Of it and choose some
thing not on the list, for which ga charge
will be made proportonate to its nature. ex.
tent and importance"
Dr. Cook thought fee bill generally dam
aged society, DR.. Putney thought likewise
and DR.. Stout was sure, after practice of
forty years, it was never lived up to. 1t was
however, generally agreed that it was good
thing for court purposes, and that by system
of frebates it could be gotten along with, aad so
when the motion was put to adopt it there
was not a dissenting voice. The question
was broached as to whether patient should
be charged in accordance with his ability to
pay, but not discussed After the transac-
ton of some minor business and appointing a
committee on officers, an adjournment was
