JAMES A. HARRIS, of Knox County.
is making a brilliant race for Comptrol-
Ter. Mr.. Harris is well equipped to per-
form the duties of the office, and East
Tennessee is pulling for him as q unit,
because they feel that he has merited
and deserves some such recognition at
Democratic hands. Chattanooga News.
Correct. He is capable of making a
brilliant race" Indeed, it is his mis-
fortune that nature gave him only two
legs. Were he as plentifully endowed
with legs as Nancy Hanks the record of
that speedy queen of the turf would
not last a day, Put him in front OF a
pneumatic sulky and the driver could
shoot craps on the tail of his coat. He
is a Splinter from the planet of Sprint.
When he runs the air is roasted and the
cdor of scorching follows fast on his
trail. He can give a comet a ten yard
handicap and beat it from the-barn.
East Tennessee is proud of his swiftness
and is prepared to back him in the
great biennial books. The odds are
ten to n on him and growing. Great

steeds or suffering Aliens. -Knoxville
Journal.
Be it said to the credit of Little JIM
that old Washington, his native coun-
ty, is for him, and proud of his spirit
and pluck. If what the Journa al says
is even SO, it is no mor than thousands
of Democrats and Republicans did ON
the same day in this State, and we
think it wrong to continue to carp and
yell "Barnie" at one of our boys who
is so full of manhood as Jim Harris.
We believe it to be the sentiment of
the good Republicans of this county
that If a Democrat must have the place
of Comptroller they would as soon Jim
should have it as any one. We would
say ''let the one who is withoutsin cast
the first stone" y

The report of Mr.. Peck, Labor Com
missioner of the State of New York ON
the effect of the Mckinley law upon la
Dor and wages in that State, is giving
the Democratic party a great deal of
trouble. 1t was fondly hoped and con-
fidently believed that the report would
show a depressed condition of labor
and a decrease in wages, all of which
would have been charged to the tariff
as provided for under the Mckinley
law. But the report was not that kind
OF a cat. 1t shows an improvement in
labor, an increase in wages, a better
feeling between employe and employer,
and a splendid outlook for the future.
Hence these tears. Shame on a party
that seeks comfort and encouragement
in the m%isfortunes of the laboring man
and the stagnation of business. The
hypecritical leaders of the Democratic
party pretend a consuming love for the
laboring man, yet they mourn when
labor t1ourishes and paw the earth
like a pennyroyal bull at the sight OF
the mechanics happy face and well
filled tin american made) dinner
bucket.

A MALICIOUS A
The Memphis Commercial says /:

The Memphis Commercial says:
''There are very few of the counties
in East Tennessee where the Republi-
can election officers do not knowingly
and systematically violate the law and
their oaths to %supporti il. Perjury is re-
garded simply as smart politics among
the disreputable radical bosses who
manage the carnival of scoundrelism
which they call elections in many coun-
ties. There is not the slightest effort
made to enforce the poll tax law in
many of these Republican counties, and
men are allowed to vote regardless of
whether they have paid their poll taxes
or not.
"All this emphasizes what we had
occasion to say several days ago-that
for black and unblushing v~illainy you
would have to search hell with a Ian
tern to parallel the radical bosses in
East Tennessee, so great is the variety,
intensity, height, breadth and depth of
their depravity. They are the blue rib
bon knaves Of American politics, the
paragon miscreants of the earth"
The editor of the Commercial know
ingly lied when he penned the above.
1t is a a , of crying stop thief. p"
When a gentleman's pocket is picked
in a crowd, the rascal who committed
the robbery bawls out stop, thief !"
louder than anybody else. His infa-
mously false charge that Republicans
of East Tennessee perpetrated election
frauds is intended to palate, if not JUS
tify, the wholesale frauds which the
Turney Democracy of Memphis and
West Tennessee are getting ready to
perpetrate next November.
In 1884 Cleveland's majority in Ten
nessee was 5000. In 1888 Harrison
gained over 10, 1000 votes on the Blaine
vote of the State in 1884, outside of q
half dozen counties in West Tennessee.
And yet, such wholesale frauds were
perpetrated in Shelby and a few 9TH
er counties of West Tennessee as to
give the State to Cleveland in 1888 by
over 10000 majority. There is not an
intelligent, unprejudiced man in Ten
nessee who does not know that Harri.
son would have carried Tennessee four
years ago, but for the frauds which
were perpetrated right under the red
nose of the editor of the Memphis Com
mercial.
There is not an honest Democrat in
East Tennessee who would have so lit.
tie self respect as to endorse this Sian.
der of East Tennessee Republication.
There never has been tissue ballots,
perjury, false counting, ballot box
stuffiing or violence employed in East
Tennessee elections. And there has
rarely been an honest election in West
Tennessee in twenty years.

cial is the champion liar of the age.
If we ever set up a lie factory we shall
hang him out for a sign. He gets about
two thousand dollars a year for lying,
and this, according to the incest math-
ematical estimate which can be made,
is about two cents for every ten lies.

EAST TENNESSEE - OLD PETE
TURNKEY.

The editor of the Memphis CONNER
cial, and his sort, will never forgive
East Tennessee Republicans for fight
ing In the Union army, to the number
of about thirty thousand. In this he
has the full sympathy of his candidate
for Governor, old Pete Turney.
When the war ended, in 1855, Turney
gave his parole of honor, henceforth
and forever, to be loyal to the Govern.
ment of the United States. But not.
withstanding this, the drunken old
reprobate delivered a public address in
Knoxville only last year, in which he
said, substantially "In 1851 l thought
was right in going into secession in
1891 | know that | was right. And
now, my friends, if my physician were
to tell me had but a few hours to live,
and you were at my bedside and should
ask me what was the greatestfavor you
could do me, would tell you 1t would
be TO erect a simple monument to my
memory, and inscribe the single word
upon it-sECEssIoNl"
Under our constitution a traitor can
only be punished for acts of treason.
Reasonable words, therefore, are not
punishable. But while the utterances

The Mugwump journals have an un,
pleasant job on hand in attempting to
refute the showing made by Commits.
sioner of Labor Peck in his report on
1.-THE effect of the tariff on labor and
wages" in the State of New York. The
general conclusion arrived at by the
Mugwumps is, that since it has been
shown by Investigation that wages
have increased, that production has in.
creased and that strikes have lessened
in New York since the Mckinley law
was passed, the tariff has nothing to dc
with it. This is a beautiful, symmet.
rical and complete Mugwump argu.
ment and leaves nothing more to be
said. 1t is considered fair that the
readers of this paper should have the
benefit of the argument in order the
better to judge the kind of people thai
make it.

PETE TURNEY says that ''if the Re-

the fate of the country" We knew
that old Pete had trembled at intervals
of every few months for twenty years,

been the cause of Peters trembling.

-
For the past two weeks the quiet of
our section has been broken by the
shrill whistle of three different steam
threshers. The wheat crop has turned
out very satisfactory. The acreage to
be sown in wheat this fall will be far
short of last years in this section, ow-
ing to the dry weather, and the low
price of wheat has discouraged them to
some extent.
The corn crop is only about INT half
what was expected.
John Gibson is now in our section
with his camera, copying the beauties
of our young people.
G. E. Wilhide, a lumberman from

Mrs. HarrisOn's Great Painting.

1t may not be known to everyone
that Mrs. Benjaman Harrison is one of
the best of American flower painters.
Since she has occupied her position of
lady of the White House, however, her
public duties have largely prevented
the exercise of her artistic genius; but
in that period she has found leisure to
paint one of the loveliest representations
of flower life that ever came from an
artist brnsh,-a magnificent group of
orchids on a porcelain panel. With
that broad and kindly spirit which has
marked her career, she has presented
this single production of her scant leis-
ure to the public, and Demorest Maya
zine has the honor of being the medium
through which this painting is offered
the mothers, wives, and daughters of
America, to whom it is lovingly dedi-
Gated. There is no faint of politics in
it; it is simply the tribute of a good
woman's love for the women of her
nation, superbly expressed in color and
form-the foremost woman of the Re-
public cementing, by means of her art,
her sisterhood with all others of her
sex in the land.
Mrs. Harrison's painting has been
reproduced in the highest style of art,
of the same size as the original (11x15
inches, and is an absolutely perfect
counterpart, in every particular, to the
faintest tint of color, even to the pecu-
liar texture of the porcelain.
One of these wonderful reproductions
OLA White House Orchid, painted by
the presidents wife,in the White House
from an orchid grown in the White
House, is to be presented free with each
copy of Demorest's Family Magazine
for October, which can be purchased of
any of our local newsdealers; or send
30 cents to the publisher, w. Jennings

No wonder that the editor who loves

such a man as Turney as Governor
would disgrace Tennessee at home and
