With the divisions now existing in the
rotten convict lease Democracy all we

no greater division in the Democratic

OBITUARY.
JOSEPH HILL.

Joseph Hill, of Washington County,
Tennessee, was a son of Costilo Hill,
and cousin of the celebrated Confed
crate General A. p. Hill and was born
in Wythe County, Virginia, October
20, 1919. In 1888 his father who owned
a large plantation in Henry County,
Virginia, was broken up by security
debts and young Joseph left the pa
rental roof to shift for himself at the
tender age Of fourteen. He went to
Surrey County, North Carolina where
he grew to manhood and married Mary
A. L0vins, November IA, 1916. She
died in 1868 on Cherokee after leaving
JonesboNs Tennessee, where he had
settled since Saving North Carolina in
1852. He afterwards permanently To-
Gated on Cherokee where he lived and
1ourlshed until his death. He was re-
married TO Elizabeth A. Bayless July
IL, 1867. He died suddenly of heart
disease, after an illness of two weeks,
August o, 1892 at Z o'clock A. M. with
these last words lingering upon his lips:
Heavenly father have mercy on me-"
Although nearly seventy three years of
age his strength and vigor of intellect
had in nowise become weakened by the
ills of the flesh or the influence of time.
He was first elected a magistrate in
the 4th civil district in 1865 and served
continuously eve since, never failing
of an election. He always welded a
potent influence in the County Court
and was five times elected its Chairman.
In 1880 he successfully negotiatedWas
ington County's East Tennessee, Vir-
ginia and Georgia Railroad stock, in.
v%olving the handling Of many thous-
ands of dollars, and under his admins
tration as Chairman the warrants of the
county were broughtto PAL. The county
always felt secure when Joseph Hill
was at the head of affairs. He welded
a large influence in his neighborhood
and throughout the county as well as
in the County Court and he invariably
sought to exert it for good. He was a
positive, bold, square man of solid ma
tive sense, a substantial useful citizen
whose integrity of character was never
questioned. He left his widow and
children in comfortable circumstances,
leaving not one cent Of debt against
his estate.
Whole volumes could be written of
such a man with so many excellent
traits of character, but, after all, the
most fitting tribute couched in English
language, and which speaks volumes
in itself, is to say of him: He was the
noblest work of God-au honest man,

ALL Che signs indicate that The Demo
cratic politicians of Tennessee are de-
termined that the leasing of convicts,
in competition with honest working
men, shall be made permanent. The
ring of Democratic politicians who have
been leasing convicts in our State, since
1870, has made too much money out OF
it to ever willingly quit the damnable
business. One of the greatest of philos.
ophers has said: when a mans con.

GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC

Beginning on the Goth of this month,
and continuing for five days, the griz-
zled veterans of the Union Army will
have the grandest love feast they have
ever had. There will be in Washing
ton not less than one hundred thousand
of the brave men who saved the Union,
thousands of whom will for the first
time walk the streets of the great Capt.
tai of the Great Republic which their
patriotism and valor did so much to
save. God bless the old boys and God
grant that they may enjoy their visit
to Washington City. They deserve to
do SO. But for them and their COM
rades, living and dead, there would be
no Washington City and no Free Gov
eminent on the American Continent.
The Republican party loves this great
Government and its soldiers, as a hus-
band loves his bride and a father his
children.

The growth of the big political cor.

Something for Merchants to
Think About.

In many of our towns there are many who
desire their clo,hing MADE TO ORDER,
while at the same time there are no custom
tailors in their vicinity upon whom they can
rely for proper styles, prices, etc.
To meet such a demand, this branch of our
business has been expressly established, and
has been for many years in successful opera
ton. The very general satisfaction with
which our work has been received enables
us to guarantee that, by adopting our meth
cd, you will be able 10 build up a good GUS
tom trade in your town and vicinity, which,
after a fair trial. will be both satisfactory to
your customers and profitable to yourself.
Our garments fit and are comfortable TO the
wearers. We are not at all in sympathy
with the too prevailing idea that anything
will do for what Is termed country orders.
Our line of samples represents the best
makes of foreign II domestic manufactures
and, together with trimmings, Workman
ship, etc, our work can be relied upon as be-
ing superior TO that of most of our COMPETE
tors. We keep no ready made clothing what
ever, neither do we employ cheap stock cut
ters, but on the contrary, all garments are
cut and made expressly to your orders, by
the best custom cutters ~attainable, and I'M
der our personal supervision, We desire to
place our line of samples with some good
house in every town where such a field ex-
lists, and for this purpose invite correspond
ence from all responsible houses desiring a
line of samples.

Women at Work.

The thinking women of the United
States-and all women think-feel that
they ought to be interested in the cam
paign. Mrs. Ellen J. Foster, who is at
the Hotel Savoy, was at the Republican
headquarters yesterday and saw Mr..
Carter and General Clarkson concerning
the work Of the Women's Republican
association, of which she is president.
Much Of this work is the distribution Of
literature. Mrs. Foster, in speaking Of
the different features Of the work, said:
Our women's work is going along
finely. A most gratifying feature is the
hearty response which comes from Re-
publican officials throughout the coun-
try. There is scarcely any state COM
mittee which does not urge the circula-
ton Of our literature and the organiza-
ton of our women. The first issue of
the Home and the Flag series is just out.
We think it the prettiest bit Of political
literature ever issued from any head
quarters. 1t will be followed by ten or
dozen other books in like style, cover
ing the main principles Of Republican,
ism. These are being sent to state chair
men, and By them circulated through
county committees among women.

No Danger Sign Needed Here

This is the clause of the national Re,
publican platform which is said to fill
the souls of Democratic editors and
voters with alarm about ''the force bill. y
Read it carefully:
We demand that every citizen of the United
States shall be allowed to cast one free and
unrestricted ballot in all public elections, and
that such ballot shall be counted and re.
turned as cast; that such laws shall be
enacted and enforced as will secure to every
citizen, be he rich or poor, native or foreign
born, white black, this sovereign right
guaranteed by the constitution. The free and
honest popular ballot, the just and equal rep
resentation of all the people, as well as their
just and equal protection under the laws, are
the foundation of our republican institutions
and the party will never relent in its efforts
until the integrity of the ballot and the purity
of elections shall be fully guaranteed and pro-
tected in every state.

If the democratic orators are
suffering for an example of pa
ternal legislation to rail around,
what's the matter with the Dodge
legacy law? This very peculiar
enactment was originated with and
passed by the last democratic
Legislature soon after the Bennett
law was repealed. 1t was approved
by Gov. Peck, and endorsed
along with the gerrymanders
and other queer Legislation
perfected by the state admin
stration. Under that law a
man upon his deathbed, or a
woman either, can neither will a
cent for prayers for immortal souls
nor make a bequest to any church
or benevolent organization, with
out invalidating the will. This
law was introduced in the legis-
lature by Mr.. J. E. Dodge. OF
Racine Mr.. Dodge is one of the
orators booked to make campaign
speeches for the democratic party
throughout Wisconsin this year.
He is lawyer, and if the Dodge
legacy law is not designed to
frustate the last earthly wishes of
the christian, nullify the counsel of
the priest Or pastor at the last sick
bed, and assist attorneys in con-
testing wills and diverting property
from chosen heirs to attorneys and
claimants by virtue Of technicali-
ties, it is hoped that its author will
take early occasion to explain
what in the line of common sense
it was designed for.

MIR. James Moons Experience Buying
Stuff for Trousers.
Here is free trade item that will in
terest the venerable James Moon, who
has retired from his farm near Lake
vile and lives in the suburbs of South
Bend. On Jan. 10, 1859, in those good
old Democratic days when Buchanan
was president and there was no Ere
publican robber tariff" Mr.. Moon came
to South Bend from his Union township
farm and bought material for pair of
pants. All wool goods were then SO
high priced that he bought satinet, a
cloth made of cotton warp and wooden
filling, which is rarely sold in these days
of low priced all wool goods.
Mr.. Moon bought 81 yards of satinet
at rs cents a yard; ~ yards of drilling
at 1913 cents q yard, Il buttons for IA
cents and skein of linen thread at 5
cents; total, So. He then had to pay
for having the pants made by a tailor,
or get them made at home. Today
under a protective tariff, he can buy
satinet at 80 cents yard and less. He
can buy a pair of ready made satinet
pants from 81. % to 50.
The Tribune has not trusted to Mr..
Moons memory for these prices, but
taken them right from the merchants
dayboolz where they were charged at
the time he made the purchase.-South

What he Says About the Situation In

What he Says About the Situation in
the West and South.
Governor Mckinley is confident of
Republican success. On a recent visit 10
New York he was asked if there is any
prospect Of Republican losses in the
west.
''Oh, not the least" was the answer.
'They are Republican states and they
cannot be carried by the Democrats. I
was III Madison, Wis, at meeting some
time ago, and the feeling then was that
the Republicans would surely carry the
state"
is there any danger in Iowa or Ne
braska?'
''There is not. The Republicans will
win both those states. At the meeting
IN Lincoln, Neb., where [ spoke on Aug.
3, there We're at the least calculation %,
600 people present. They came from
Iowa, from Kansas and from Missouri,
and there seemed to be the utmost en-
thusiasm. The Republicans of Iowa
and Nebraska are bound to win this
year."
''Do you not think that some of the
southern states are worth looking after
and that there is good field for work
in them?'
Eyes, l do; and in West Virginia
especially. If the negro question could
be eliminated from the campaign the
south would soon vote with us on the
question of the tariff. had the honor
of making a speech before the southern
Chautauqua a few years ago. Of course
[ talked On the tariff, and after the
speech any number of southerners told
me that they agreed with me-"

The published report of the
democratic labor commissioner Of
New York, showing that the wage
workers earnings in that state
have materially increased under
M'Kinley law, will go far towards
justifying the judgment Of Gov.
Peck in his appointment of labor
commissioner for Wisconsin. Gov.
Peck selected for the office of
commissioner a political lawyer
whose distinguishing qualification
for the place is found in the fac
that he has long been adverse to
labor any more than he was
obliged to; and there is no danger
of any untimely publication of facts
for the information of the public
from his office.
