very much like a primary election in
this judicial circuit. We don't sup
pose there is a newspaper in the circuit
will offer serious objections. The talk
OF a primary has just about knocked
the trotters out from under the initial
candidates.
Cincinnati Tribune: At present
Their is no money panic. But the money
Is not in circulation. Why? Because
the manufacturers, who start it on its
rounds, are haunted by the free trade
spectre now stalking in the corridors
OF the Capitol. They can not take the
risk of paying protection wages and
eventually selling their products at
Tree trade prices. This is the situation,
and the men who worked by the day
know it. When the occasion presents
itself, they will make all needed cor
rections.
Rogersville Review A few nights
ago a widow of the 18th District heard
a noise out in her yard. She sailed
forth, pistol in hand. In one corner of
the yard the watch dog had a man
cornered. She picked up a piece of
pailing, advanced on him corchuck,
corchuck, she took him across the

was surprised to find it was her lover.

Chattanooga Press: If elections
have to be bought, by the purchase of
poll tax receipts and otherwise, a light
vote, such as Chattanooga had Tues
day, is the thing for these hard times.
Rogersville Star The newspapers
OF Middle Tennessee contain m

county officers to be filled next August.
These candidates show good business
sense to begin with. They reap the
benefit of nearly a years advertise
ment at the same price they would pay
for a weeks. The announcement fee
20 for county and $40, for judicial Of
fices-is the same now that it will be a
week before the election. If any body
in Hawkins OF Hancock Counties want
an office next August, the Star column
is open for their announcement at the
regular and uniform price quoted
above.
Rogersville Herald: Experience teach
ers a dear school, but fools will learn
in no other. Every one knows now
that Democratic rule is nothing less
than national calamity. That knowl-
edge has come to many by sad expert
ence.
Ducktown Reporter: A North Geor-
gia man who recently went to Texas
writes back: II got here safe and
sound; but l don't see any chance to
make money to get back home on"

Tennessee's peerless orator, will deliver
q lecture at the Baptist church, Mon.
day night, Oct. esd, at z o'clock. Ad-
mission to all, 10 cents. Subject.
Rome was not built in a day." 1t is
a fine lecture and everyone should
hear it.
Knoxville Journal: tits funny to see
how Democrats crow over the repeal of
the Federal Election Laws by the House
of Representatives. They are as noisy
as new converts, and shout that we
will have fair and free elections. 1t
reminds us of the Sunday school class
that was asked to give evidence of
Peters conversion. One bright boy
held up his hands and was told to ans
wer. "Why," said he, Peter was 20
happy that he crowed three times"
If Growing is evidence of conversion
then the Democratic party may have
