FROM every district in the county
we have the most cheering reports in
regard to the election next Tuesday, so
that we have not the least doubt but
that we will carry this county by an
increased majority. The Republicans
are fully aroused with something of
the old time fire, and are fully alive to
the importance of the issues involved
in this election and are therefore de-
termined to use every means in their
power to elect the entire ticket. And
when the Grand Old Party does once
go in, it always goes in to win. Mark
that. In conclusion, we again urge
every Republican to turn out and vote
the ticket, and see that your neighbor
does likewise.

WE would again urge upon our Re-
publican readers the Importance of
electing a full delegation of Eepubli.
cans to the next Legislature of Tonnes
see-that is a State Senator, a Floater
and a member from this county to the
Lower House. Our candidate for State
Senator is Hon. James A. West. Mr..
West is a live Republican of the stall
wart type he is also a first class bust
ness man as well as a prosperous farm
er-just the kind of a man we want in
the Legislature to watch after the in
terests of the farmer and business man.
Our candidate for Floater is John @. A.
Remine. Mr.. Remine is also a staunch
Republican, and is a clear, level headed
well posted politician, and having had
the advantage of two years service as
State Senator, he will be able to do
good work for his people. Our candi-
date for the Legislature is John A..
Mathes. He is Il of the live young
Republicans and a hustling business
man of johnson City. In the Legisla-
ture he will vote against all the infa-
mousm measures of Democracy, and will
vote for all the Republican measures,
looking to the good of all classes of
our State. Let us see to it, then, that
we elect every n of our candidates to
the Legislature by a rousing majority.

REPUBLICANS are warned to watch
out for swapping on election day the
Democrats will resort to any and every
trick to elect Squire Bowman, and, of
course, will make all kinds of PROPOSE
tons to swap votes with the Republic
c%ans-even to swapping off old Pete
himself. Therefore do not be deceived:
don't be deluded into trading off your
principles don t be deluded into voting
for Boman on any terms ; don't waste
your vote IN Bowers, and thereby help
Bowman. Don't be misled into voting
for Col. DUNCAN under the mistaken
idea that you are voting to help the
temperance cause. Vote the straight
Republican ticket, from Ben. Harrison
down to ], A. Mathes, and victory will
surely follow.

BEFORE the sitting of the late Repub-
lican County Convention each and
every Republican had a perfect right
to work for the nomin alton of any par
ticular friend. 1t was a fair, open
fight, in which all had a right to en-
gage. But when that convention made
its nomination then that nominee be-
came a part of the Republican ticket,
and he who would keep in line with his
party is in duty bound to vote for the
success of the entire ticket. The regu-
lar Republican ticket Ia be seer at the
head of these columns every man on
it is a good man and is worthy of your
support. Vote the ticket, then, in its
entirety.

EVERY old soldier who wore the blue
should remember that it were better
that the war they fought to a finish and
won, had been a failure, than that the
country should now be turned over to
a party represented by two such cow
ardly persons as Cleveland and his
mate. A thousand times better would
it be were the Government put in the
hands of some of the men who wore
the gray, who had the manhood to take
up the musket in defense of what they
believe.

A WORD more to Republicans-Be
certain to go early to the election your
self ; see that your Republican neigh
Dor goes also. Be careful in regard to
your ticket. Get your ticket from a
good and true Republican see that it
is seven inches in length and three
inches wide, and contains the names of
all the Republican candidates.

The Republicans of this county have
promised the Republican party of the
State to send a Republican Representa-.
tive to the next Legislature of Tennes-
see. The only way to redeem that
promise will be to vote for John A.
Mathes, the regular Republican nomi-
nee. A vote for Bowers will, in effect,
be a vote for Bowman.

WHAT We want in the Legislature is
men who will labor necessarily for the
repeal of the infamous DortcL law, the

sole chance to elect their ticket in this
county is to catch the Republicans

There is not the slightest ground for

the policy, which they declared to be
constitutional, of fostering our Ameri-
can industries by meant of a protective
tariff. And all those in the column
headed by John c. Calhoun and tailed
by Henry Watterson, are on the record
as opposing SUCH protection because
they affirmed that it was unconstitu-
tional. Now, my honest, conscientious
Democratic friend, in which OF those
parallel columns do you propose, by
your vote on the Sth of November, to

gressive Americanism, and write and
vote your name with them.

TWO MATERIAL OMISSIONS.
A Sentence of One Resolution and All of
Another Overlooked.

Sentence of One Resolution and All of
Another Overlooked.
In the resolutions of the democratic
state convention of Thursday, as they were
published, two material omissions were
unintentionslly made. One of these was
sentence in the resolution indorsing the
new tax law, referring to the efforts of cor.
porations to defeat it. That resolution en-
tire should have been:
We heartily indorse the new tax law as wise
and beneficent act. by which the increased rev.
enues necessary for the support of the state
government are raised entirely from the cor
porations of the state that had heretofore I'M
justly escaped their fair proportion of taxation.
We commend the Legislature for re using to
adopt Governor Hoyey's recommendation to
increase the state levy from IL cents to
% cents on the 500, and for meeting
the necessary expenses of the states benevo-
lent institutions by a levy OF cents on the
800. We donounce the infamous conspiracy
oil the republican county commissioners, town
ship trustees and other officials of Indiana
who, for the purpose of creating unfair preju-
dice against the new tax law, have wantonly
and needlessly increased the local taxes in the
forty-slX counties controlled by them more
than Sl,250,0O0-a sum greater than the total
increase OF state taxes in the entire state. We
call on the taxpayers of those counties to re-
buke at the polls these local officials who have
put this needless and oppressive burden upon
them. As evidence that this law was
enacted in the interest of the people call
attention to the desperate and united efforts
now being made in the courts for its overthrow
by the great corporations of the country.
The other resolution. and one which, like
all the others. was unanimously adopted,
was the following:
We most heartily concur in the action re-
Gently taken by the Grand Army of the Re-
public requesting the legislature to provide q

entering found M. Very on the

presents a most appalling appearance.

THE MESSAGE FROM INDIANA.
Even Ant,-CIsvsIand Men Admit That the
Tidal Wave Is Coming.

Wash Special st. Louis Republic.I
The action of the Indiana democratic
state convention today has given a re-
newed impetus to the Cleveland boom.
When a state with such a conspicuous
''favorite son" as Indiana has indorses
Cleveland, it is argued that it means
that the people want Cleveland
nominated and will have him, whether
the politicians will or not. Even the anti
Cleveland democrats in congress now
admit that there is a Cleveland tidal
wave, and that it will be useless
to resist it. Senator Hill, accord
ing to reports, still thinks that
the true solution OF the situation
is to follow the advice OF the seventy-two
delegates chosen by the midwinter con-
vention in New York. Hill is very much
alone IN this opinion, however; on the
contrary the democratic politicians gener-
ally are inclined to think that the only
graceful thing Tor the New York delega-
ton to do is to respect the wishes of the
democrats of the country and fall into
line. Col. William r. Morrison OF Illinois
was seen by the Republic correspondent
tonight and asked what he thought of the
action in Indiana. He said: "The in
structions, or declaration, for Cleveland
by the Indiana democratic convention to-
day indicates the democratic sentiment
and preference in Illinois and all the
Northwest. l suggested some months
ago, in view of possible conditions
which might exist at the time of
the national convention, that Illinois
should not instruct. but send delegation
free to act for the best interests of the
party. But instructions have been secured
for Senator Palmer in number OF coun-
ties, while other counties have instructed
for Mr. Cleveland. Still there is no mis-
taking the sentiment OF the democratic
masses being for Cleveland and if any
body gets instructions he ought to have
them, and | am in favor of his having
them. The illinois state convention will
declare for Cleveland ii it gives true ex-
preston 10 the preference of the state
democracy. 1 have been appointed n del
egate and may 90 to the state convention"

HUNDREDS DYING.
The Remarkable Mortality In the Brazilian
Metropolis.

The Remarkable Mortality in the Brazilian
Metropolis.
Rio DE JANEIRo, March 26.-The CUES
tons which apparently give the govern
ment most concern at present are those
OF public health and the increased cost of
living. The mortality caused by yellow
fever, the growth of which had been
checked by heavy rains. is again increas-
ing, and as is usually the case when
yellow fever prevails here, there
are at the same time many deaths from
other fevers. On the 18th there were in
this city, according to official statistics,
l45 deaths, the largest number that have
been reported for one day this year. OF
these fifty-six were caused by yellow fever,
twenty-sx by other levers and ten by
what is called acesso pernicioso (perni-
cious stroke), violent disease. the action
of which lis exceedingly rapid, sometimes
causing those attacked by it to drop dead
in the streets.
On the 10th sIxtv-eight deaths from
yellow fever were officia y reported, but
the number of deaths from all causes was
not as great on that day as it was on the
18th inst. 1t is generally asserted that
there are many more deaths than those
officially reported and it has even been
said that the average number from yellow
fever alone was $50 day, but this is re-
garded as an exaegeration.
