}. T. Warren was By unanimous

Mr.. Warren has, through an open
letter to the Executive Committee
at Nashville accepted the nOmina'

all the people who favor prohibi
ton, or are in the least III sym
patty with it's principles, will cas-
their votes for this most worthy
gentleman, who will be a credit t
